--> 00:41:13.890 2 Chronicles 18 will be our text this evening. 00:41:13.890 --> 00:41:15.650 And as always, here at our church, 00:41:15.650 --> 00:41:19.020 we read the entire chapter before the preaching. 00:41:19.020 --> 00:41:22.480 2 Chronicles 18, the Bible reads, 00:41:22.480 --> 00:41:26.860 now Jehoshaphat, at riches and honor and abundance, 00:41:26.860 --> 00:41:29.890 and joined a firmity with Ahab. 00:41:29.890 --> 00:41:33.770 And after certain years, he went down to Ahab, to Samaria. 00:41:33.770 --> 00:41:37.440 And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, 00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:40.030 and for the people that he had with him, 00:41:40.030 --> 00:41:44.280 and persuaded him to go up with him to Ramoth-Gilead. 00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:47.720 And Ahab, king of Israel, said unto Jehoshaphat, 00:41:47.720 --> 00:41:52.460 king of Judah, wilt thou go with me to Ramoth-Gilead? 00:41:52.460 --> 00:41:55.650 And he answered him, I am as thou art, 00:41:55.650 --> 00:41:58.110 and my people as thy people. 00:41:58.110 --> 00:42:01.000 And we will be with thee in the war. 00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:04.260 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, 00:42:04.260 --> 00:42:08.000 inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the Lord today. 00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:11.080 Therefore the king of Israel gathered together 00:42:11.080 --> 00:42:15.080 of the prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, 00:42:15.080 --> 00:42:19.950 shall we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? 00:42:19.950 --> 00:42:23.570 And they said, go up, for God will deliver it 00:42:23.570 --> 00:42:25.420 into thy king's hand. 00:42:25.420 --> 00:42:29.210 But Jehoshaphat said, is there not here 00:42:29.210 --> 00:42:33.570 a prophet of the Lord besides that we might inquire of him? 00:42:33.570 --> 00:42:36.170 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, 00:42:36.170 --> 00:42:40.680 there is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the Lord. 00:42:40.680 --> 00:42:44.630 But I hate him, for he never prophesied good unto me, 00:42:44.630 --> 00:42:46.020 but always evil. 00:42:46.020 --> 00:42:49.510 The same is Micaiah, the son of Imla. 00:42:49.510 --> 00:42:54.590 And Jehoshaphat said, let not the king say so. 00:42:54.590 --> 00:42:57.870 And the king of Israel called for one of his officers 00:42:57.870 --> 00:43:01.760 and said, fetch quickly Micaiah, the son of Imla. 00:43:01.760 --> 00:43:05.300 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, 00:43:05.300 --> 00:43:09.650 sat either of them on his throne, clothed in their robes. 00:43:09.650 --> 00:43:12.240 And they sat in a void place at the entering 00:43:12.240 --> 00:43:14.220 inn of the gate of Samaria. 00:43:14.220 --> 00:43:17.330 And all the prophets prophesied before them. 00:43:17.330 --> 00:43:20.820 And Zedekiah, the son of Shianneah, 00:43:20.820 --> 00:43:25.350 had made him horns of iron and said, thus saith the Lord, 00:43:25.350 --> 00:43:30.310 with these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed. 00:43:30.310 --> 00:43:34.080 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, 00:43:34.080 --> 00:43:36.640 go up to Ramoth-Gilead and prosper, 00:43:36.640 --> 00:43:40.290 for the Lord shall deliver it into the hand of the king. 00:43:40.290 --> 00:43:43.690 And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake to him, 00:43:43.690 --> 00:43:46.500 saying, behold the words of the prophets. 00:43:46.500 --> 00:43:49.540 Declare good to the king with one assent. 00:43:49.540 --> 00:43:52.830 Let thy word, therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, 00:43:52.830 --> 00:43:54.690 and speak thou good. 00:43:54.690 --> 00:43:57.670 And Micaiah said, as the Lord liveth, 00:43:57.670 --> 00:44:01.630 even what my God saith will I speak. 00:44:01.630 --> 00:44:04.700 And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, 00:44:04.700 --> 00:44:09.020 Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, 00:44:09.020 --> 00:44:10.870 or shall I forbear? 00:44:10.870 --> 00:44:13.310 And he said, go ye up and prosper, 00:44:13.310 --> 00:44:16.160 and they shall be delivered into your hand. 00:44:16.160 --> 00:44:18.770 And the king said to him, how many times shall I 00:44:18.770 --> 00:44:22.040 adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth to me 00:44:22.040 --> 00:44:24.000 in the name of the Lord? 00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:26.930 Then he said, I did see all Israel 00:44:26.930 --> 00:44:32.350 scattered upon the mountains as sheep that have no shepherd. 00:44:32.350 --> 00:44:35.400 And the Lord said, these have no master. 00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:37.470 Let them return, therefore, every man 00:44:37.470 --> 00:44:39.360 to his house in peace. 00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:43.610 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, 00:44:43.610 --> 00:44:45.810 did I not tell thee that he would not 00:44:45.810 --> 00:44:49.010 prophesy good unto me but evil? 00:44:49.010 --> 00:44:52.290 Again he said, therefore, hear the word of the Lord. 00:44:52.290 --> 00:44:54.700 I saw the Lord sitting upon his throne 00:44:54.700 --> 00:44:58.730 and all the hosts of heaven standing on his right hand 00:44:58.730 --> 00:45:00.290 and on his left. 00:45:00.290 --> 00:45:04.580 And the Lord said, who shall entice Ahab king of Israel 00:45:04.580 --> 00:45:08.640 that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead? 00:45:08.640 --> 00:45:11.270 And one spake, saying after this manner, 00:45:11.270 --> 00:45:13.950 and another saying after that manner. 00:45:13.950 --> 00:45:19.090 Then there came out a spirit and stood before the Lord 00:45:19.090 --> 00:45:21.530 and said, I will entice him. 00:45:21.530 --> 00:45:24.110 And the Lord said unto him, wherewith? 00:45:24.110 --> 00:45:27.660 And he said, I will go out and be a lying spirit 00:45:27.660 --> 00:45:29.630 in the mouth of all his prophets. 00:45:29.630 --> 00:45:32.680 And the Lord said, thou shalt entice him, 00:45:32.680 --> 00:45:34.700 and thou shalt also prevail. 00:45:34.700 --> 00:45:37.320 Go out and do even so. 00:45:37.320 --> 00:45:41.220 Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit 00:45:41.220 --> 00:45:43.870 in the mouth of these thy prophets, 00:45:43.870 --> 00:45:47.080 and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee. 00:45:47.080 --> 00:45:50.950 Then Zedekiah, the son of Chi-ne-Anna, 00:45:50.950 --> 00:45:55.160 came near and smote Micaiah upon the cheek and said, 00:45:55.160 --> 00:45:57.640 which way went the spirit of the Lord from me 00:45:57.640 --> 00:45:59.050 to speak unto thee? 00:45:59.050 --> 00:46:03.340 And Micaiah said, behold, thou shalt see on that day 00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:07.900 when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself. 00:46:07.900 --> 00:46:11.260 Then the king of Israel said, take ye Micaiah 00:46:11.260 --> 00:46:15.360 and carry him back to Ammon, the governor of the city, 00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:19.590 and to Joash the king's son, and say, thus saith the king, 00:46:19.590 --> 00:46:22.540 put this fellow in the prison and feed him 00:46:22.540 --> 00:46:26.400 with bread of affliction and with the water of affliction 00:46:26.400 --> 00:46:28.310 until I return in peace. 00:46:28.310 --> 00:46:32.360 And Micaiah said, if thou certainly return in peace, 00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:35.530 then hath not the Lord spoken by me. 00:46:35.530 --> 00:46:39.510 And he said, hearken, all ye people. 00:46:39.510 --> 00:46:42.830 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, 00:46:42.830 --> 00:46:45.350 went up to Ramoth-Gilead. 00:46:45.350 --> 00:46:48.500 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, 00:46:48.500 --> 00:46:52.580 I will disguise myself and will go to the battle. 00:46:52.580 --> 00:46:55.110 But put thou on thy robes. 00:46:55.110 --> 00:46:57.970 So the king of Israel disguised himself, 00:46:57.970 --> 00:47:00.020 and they went to the battle. 00:47:00.020 --> 00:47:03.200 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains 00:47:03.200 --> 00:47:06.050 of the chariots that were with him, saying, 00:47:06.050 --> 00:47:08.280 Fight ye not with small or great, 00:47:08.280 --> 00:47:10.810 save only with the king of Israel. 00:47:10.810 --> 00:47:12.060 And it came to pass, 00:47:12.060 --> 00:47:15.450 when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, 00:47:15.450 --> 00:47:18.920 that they said, it is the king of Israel. 00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:22.620 Therefore they compassed him about him to fight, 00:47:22.620 --> 00:47:26.630 but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him, 00:47:26.630 --> 00:47:29.480 and God moved them to depart from him. 00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:31.740 For it came to pass, that when the captains 00:47:31.740 --> 00:47:35.610 of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, 00:47:35.610 --> 00:47:38.420 they turned back again from pursuing him. 00:47:38.420 --> 00:47:42.780 And a certain man drew a bow at a venture, 00:47:42.780 --> 00:47:46.650 and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness. 00:47:46.650 --> 00:47:49.730 Therefore he said to his chariot-men, 00:47:49.730 --> 00:47:54.130 turn thine hand, that thou mayest carry me out of the host. 00:47:54.130 --> 00:47:57.940 For I am wounded, and the battle increased that day. 00:47:57.940 --> 00:48:02.020 Albeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot 00:48:02.020 --> 00:48:04.760 against the Syrians until the evening. 00:48:04.760 --> 00:48:10.070 And about the time of the sun going down, he died. 00:48:10.070 --> 00:48:12.690 Brother Jason, could you pray for the preaching? 00:48:12.690 --> 00:48:14.180 - Heavenly Father, I thank you for this day of work. 00:48:14.180 --> 00:48:15.400 I thank you for everything you've done for us. 00:48:15.400 --> 00:48:16.650 Lord, I pray that you please open our hearts 00:48:16.650 --> 00:48:18.140 for the preaching of your word. 00:48:18.140 --> 00:48:19.700 And I hope all brothers hear these preachings, 00:48:19.700 --> 00:48:21.820 and that you listen to them. 00:48:21.820 --> 00:48:23.250 - Amen. 00:48:23.250 --> 00:48:26.290 Well, thank you so much for coming out. 00:48:26.290 --> 00:48:31.560 The dial sermon is, who is our greatest ally? 00:48:31.560 --> 00:48:33.370 Who is our greatest ally? 00:48:33.370 --> 00:48:35.960 And today, I'm not talking so much personally. 00:48:35.960 --> 00:48:38.270 I'm talking about as a nation. 00:48:38.270 --> 00:48:40.050 And I hope that most of you view yourself 00:48:40.050 --> 00:48:41.940 as a Christian before an American, 00:48:41.940 --> 00:48:43.090 but I know most people think 00:48:43.090 --> 00:48:44.800 they're an American before a Christian. 00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:47.920 But when I ask, who's our greatest ally, 00:48:47.920 --> 00:48:50.130 there's an answer that I get all the time 00:48:50.130 --> 00:48:52.750 that doesn't make any sense at all. 00:48:52.750 --> 00:48:55.340 And here's the thing is, well, worldly or spiritually, 00:48:55.340 --> 00:48:58.920 but here, I just had you read 2 Chronicles 18, 00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:01.380 where the king of Judah and the king of Israel 00:49:01.380 --> 00:49:02.790 are going to battle. 00:49:02.790 --> 00:49:05.950 They're going to fight other locals, Syrians, 00:49:05.950 --> 00:49:07.890 that live in that area, that world. 00:49:07.890 --> 00:49:08.840 And here's the thing. 00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:11.820 A lot of people think any time Israel or Judah, 00:49:11.820 --> 00:49:15.490 throughout history, fights, God must be for them. 00:49:15.490 --> 00:49:21.290 Well, we have both Israel and Jews, and they're wrong. 00:49:21.290 --> 00:49:23.620 So let's not say this is a new thing, 00:49:23.620 --> 00:49:25.240 but I'm going to just tell you this. 00:49:25.240 --> 00:49:26.230 Here's the interesting thing. 00:49:26.230 --> 00:49:29.400 Tonight, I just want to focus on what is an ally. 00:49:29.400 --> 00:49:31.700 Because here's the thing is, if we just go through 00:49:31.700 --> 00:49:35.340 and we just lie ourselves and just fight for whatever reason, 00:49:35.340 --> 00:49:36.900 we just say it's for God. 00:49:36.900 --> 00:49:38.540 Well, sometimes we need to actually ask, 00:49:38.540 --> 00:49:40.510 what does God want? 00:49:40.510 --> 00:49:44.690 And then 2 Corinthians 6, it actually says in verse 14, 00:49:44.690 --> 00:49:47.510 "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers, 00:49:47.510 --> 00:49:49.820 for what fellowship has righteous with unrighteous, 00:49:49.820 --> 00:49:52.330 and what communion have light with darkness?" 00:49:52.330 --> 00:49:54.460 And isn't it interesting that in the Old Testament, 00:49:54.460 --> 00:49:58.740 you already have the two kings actually being emphasized 00:49:58.740 --> 00:50:01.580 of Judah and Israel because they are separate. 00:50:01.580 --> 00:50:05.430 Israel hasn't existed 600 years before Christ came. 00:50:05.430 --> 00:50:08.900 So it's very interested in 50, 60, 70 years ago 00:50:08.900 --> 00:50:10.760 when we made a new one. 00:50:10.760 --> 00:50:14.260 But I will tell you this, just because you name a country, 00:50:14.260 --> 00:50:17.420 the country of Israel, that doesn't make it godly. 00:50:17.420 --> 00:50:21.220 Actually in the Old Testament, Israel is the more wicked. 00:50:21.220 --> 00:50:23.780 It is wicked, just because they want to go to battle 00:50:23.780 --> 00:50:26.160 for whatever reason, that does not mean God is for them. 00:50:26.160 --> 00:50:28.840 But here's the thing is, be not unequally yoked. 00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:31.800 The king of Judah, which God actually protects, 00:50:31.800 --> 00:50:33.980 makes a mistake in going with an evil king. 00:50:33.980 --> 00:50:38.720 He unequally yokes himself, and his army falls. 00:50:38.720 --> 00:50:42.020 He lives through this, but his army falls. 00:50:42.020 --> 00:50:45.220 God does not want us just to ally anyone. 00:50:45.220 --> 00:50:48.980 So tonight, I just want to ask, who is our greatest ally? 00:50:48.980 --> 00:50:51.230 Who is our greatest ally? 00:50:51.230 --> 00:50:52.490 And here's the first thing to ask. 00:50:52.490 --> 00:50:54.720 It says, don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers. 00:50:54.720 --> 00:50:56.000 And if you don't know what that means, 00:50:56.000 --> 00:50:59.590 well, in 2 John 1, you go ahead and turn to 1 John 4. 00:50:59.590 --> 00:51:02.140 In 2 John 1, in verse 7, it says, 00:51:02.140 --> 00:51:04.410 for many deceivers are entered in the world, 00:51:04.410 --> 00:51:08.150 who confesseth not Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. 00:51:08.150 --> 00:51:11.300 This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 00:51:11.300 --> 00:51:14.330 If you wanna know who is an unbeliever and unworthy 00:51:14.330 --> 00:51:16.840 of being an ally to a Christian nation, 00:51:16.840 --> 00:51:19.730 it is anyone who denies Christ. 00:51:19.730 --> 00:51:22.110 So that doesn't matter if it's, 00:51:22.110 --> 00:51:24.280 well, we think he's a good teacher, 00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:25.820 but Joseph Smith's our ally, 00:51:25.820 --> 00:51:28.570 Mormons ain't allies to Christians. 00:51:28.570 --> 00:51:31.610 Well, we actually think he's probably a God, 00:51:31.610 --> 00:51:32.660 just one of many. 00:51:32.660 --> 00:51:35.200 Sorry, Hindus, you're not worthy of being an ally 00:51:35.200 --> 00:51:37.020 to a Christian nation. 00:51:37.020 --> 00:51:39.620 Oh, well, you can go on. 00:51:39.620 --> 00:51:41.670 Atheists, they don't claim Christ is there. 00:51:41.670 --> 00:51:43.930 So we can't have secular humanist nations 00:51:43.930 --> 00:51:46.320 as allies to Christians. 00:51:46.320 --> 00:51:49.020 So God says, don't be unequally yoked with them. 00:51:49.020 --> 00:51:51.850 If you turn to 1 John 4 and verse 3, it says, 00:51:51.850 --> 00:51:55.120 "And every spirit that confesseth not Jesus Christ 00:51:55.120 --> 00:51:58.110 is come into the flesh is not of God. 00:51:58.110 --> 00:52:00.350 This is the spirit of antichrist, 00:52:00.350 --> 00:52:03.220 whereof ye have heard it and should come. 00:52:03.220 --> 00:52:05.410 And even now already is in the world." 00:52:05.410 --> 00:52:08.130 So in 1 John and 2 John it literally says, 00:52:08.130 --> 00:52:11.640 "If they do not claim Christ has come in the flesh already, 00:52:11.640 --> 00:52:14.630 the Messiah hath come, the Christ has come." 00:52:14.630 --> 00:52:17.020 If you don't remember, Christ is Messiah. 00:52:17.020 --> 00:52:19.180 If anyone's waiting for another Messiah, 00:52:19.180 --> 00:52:21.850 that is of antichrist spirit, that is of the devil, 00:52:21.850 --> 00:52:24.360 and that is spitting in the face of God. 00:52:24.360 --> 00:52:27.390 Because if you do not have the Son, you do not have the Father. 00:52:27.390 --> 00:52:30.830 So you are, do not have. 00:52:30.830 --> 00:52:33.480 And you're like, "What's going on?" 00:52:33.480 --> 00:52:34.860 Well, here's the thing is, 00:52:34.860 --> 00:52:37.230 so tonight I want to focus on, 00:52:37.230 --> 00:52:40.010 well, let's just focus on the last 100 years of America. 00:52:40.010 --> 00:52:42.570 And let's just ask, "Who's our greatest ally?" 00:52:42.570 --> 00:52:44.930 Because churches will get up. 00:52:44.930 --> 00:52:46.670 And let me tell you, this could be a breach 00:52:46.670 --> 00:52:47.850 pretty much any time of the year, 00:52:47.850 --> 00:52:49.470 and somewhere in the news, people are going to get up 00:52:49.470 --> 00:52:52.690 and be like, "We gotta defend our greatest ally." 00:52:52.690 --> 00:52:55.190 Well, who is our greatest ally? 00:52:55.190 --> 00:52:56.880 And I'll go through worldly sense, 00:52:56.880 --> 00:52:58.220 and then we'll go to religious sense. 00:52:58.220 --> 00:52:59.040 So give me a minute, 00:52:59.040 --> 00:53:01.400 because we'll talk a little bit about worldly things, 00:53:01.400 --> 00:53:03.260 but I will bring it back to the Bible. 00:53:03.260 --> 00:53:06.540 But here's the thing is, in Proverbs 27, verse 10, 00:53:06.540 --> 00:53:08.830 it says, "Thy own friend and thy father's friend, 00:53:08.830 --> 00:53:11.320 forsake not, neither go into thy brother's house 00:53:11.320 --> 00:53:12.350 in the day of calamity, 00:53:12.350 --> 00:53:14.860 for it is better is a neighbor 00:53:14.860 --> 00:53:17.530 that is near than a brother far off." 00:53:17.530 --> 00:53:20.830 Turn to 1 John 3, 17. 00:53:20.830 --> 00:53:21.930 But I'll tell you this, 00:53:21.930 --> 00:53:23.900 one reason why I wanna tell you this is, hey, 00:53:23.900 --> 00:53:26.040 whether your political view is more closer 00:53:26.040 --> 00:53:27.450 to the foundation of this country, 00:53:27.450 --> 00:53:28.800 we said we will have no allies, 00:53:28.800 --> 00:53:32.210 so we don't get pulled into pointless wars, that's great. 00:53:32.210 --> 00:53:33.710 I'm probably more for that. 00:53:33.710 --> 00:53:37.040 I think having military alliances when we aren't at war 00:53:37.040 --> 00:53:38.670 is kind of evil. 00:53:38.670 --> 00:53:41.360 But I'll tell you this, whatever your view is, 00:53:41.360 --> 00:53:43.830 all I'm gonna be talking about is factually. 00:53:43.830 --> 00:53:46.380 Factually, who is our ally, historically? 00:53:46.380 --> 00:53:49.010 And it even says this, hey, if we have allies, 00:53:49.010 --> 00:53:50.360 shouldn't we remember them? 00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:51.670 If we've actually gone through them, 00:53:51.670 --> 00:53:52.830 shouldn't we count them? 00:53:52.830 --> 00:53:55.180 Shouldn't we even understand who it is? 00:53:55.180 --> 00:53:56.690 And if you turn to 1 John 3, 00:53:56.690 --> 00:53:59.360 1 John 3, go to verse 16, it says, 00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:01.710 "Hereby perceive we the love of God, 00:54:01.710 --> 00:54:04.150 "because he has laid down his life for us, 00:54:04.150 --> 00:54:06.810 "as we ought to lay down our lives for our brethren. 00:54:06.810 --> 00:54:10.130 "But whosoever hath the world's good, 00:54:10.130 --> 00:54:11.670 "and seest his brother have need, 00:54:11.670 --> 00:54:14.210 "and shut up his bowels and compassion for him, 00:54:14.210 --> 00:54:16.950 "how delivereth the love of God in him?" 00:54:16.950 --> 00:54:18.210 Why I want you to read this is, 00:54:18.210 --> 00:54:21.300 this is how you determine who your ally is. 00:54:21.300 --> 00:54:23.120 In Bible it says in other places, 00:54:23.120 --> 00:54:24.090 there is no greater love 00:54:24.090 --> 00:54:26.360 than to lay down your life for your friend. 00:54:26.360 --> 00:54:27.810 Now this is a personal note, 00:54:27.810 --> 00:54:28.830 but let me tell you this, 00:54:28.830 --> 00:54:31.590 in nations, who your ally is, 00:54:31.590 --> 00:54:34.180 who's gonna die with you? 00:54:34.180 --> 00:54:36.960 And I'm not here to justify war and all this, 00:54:36.960 --> 00:54:40.670 but it's a simple question, allies die for each other. 00:54:40.670 --> 00:54:43.740 That's just kind of what the definition of it is. 00:54:43.740 --> 00:54:46.820 So I just wanna go through, over the last hundred years, 00:54:46.820 --> 00:54:49.170 I mean, who are our allies? 00:54:49.170 --> 00:54:51.010 Because the first question is, 00:54:51.010 --> 00:54:54.390 how many troops did we provide to each other? 00:54:54.390 --> 00:54:56.720 Well, if you're gonna go by that, 00:54:56.720 --> 00:54:59.160 it's gonna be UK, Australia, South Korea. 00:54:59.160 --> 00:55:00.890 Half of you wouldn't even know we're probably the, 00:55:00.890 --> 00:55:03.500 like we are the strongest ally of South Korea. 00:55:03.500 --> 00:55:06.220 Like we plan to go into nuclear war for South Korea, 00:55:06.220 --> 00:55:07.060 if you do not know, 00:55:07.060 --> 00:55:08.520 and most of you probably don't know this, 00:55:08.520 --> 00:55:10.610 we have more troops stationed in South Korea 00:55:10.610 --> 00:55:14.280 because we've been in a almost, what is it now, 00:55:14.280 --> 00:55:17.280 80 year war in Korea. 00:55:17.280 --> 00:55:21.320 We have never had peace, we're at a ceasefire. 00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.270 But we have guns and missiles and nukes pointed at them, 00:55:24.270 --> 00:55:27.410 and we have them pointed at us in the Korean peninsula. 00:55:27.410 --> 00:55:30.430 We have trained and fought for decades, 00:55:30.430 --> 00:55:32.580 and we have people die on the border 00:55:32.580 --> 00:55:36.080 because sniper fire still comes across for years and years. 00:55:36.080 --> 00:55:38.470 Let me tell you, every single war since the Korean War, 00:55:38.470 --> 00:55:40.640 which is Vietnam, Philippines, 00:55:40.640 --> 00:55:42.490 most of you don't know we fight wars there, 00:55:42.490 --> 00:55:46.510 Philippines, into Iraq, into all around the world, 00:55:46.510 --> 00:55:48.820 Afghanistan, South Korea has been there 00:55:48.820 --> 00:55:50.950 and they have had people die for us. 00:55:50.950 --> 00:55:53.500 Most of you don't even know where that is. 00:55:53.500 --> 00:55:55.940 But I'm gonna tell you, they're one of our best allies, 00:55:55.940 --> 00:55:59.030 not by number England by far, 00:55:59.030 --> 00:56:02.400 in support and training Australia. 00:56:02.400 --> 00:56:04.830 Well, we were like, well, not all of us did, 00:56:04.830 --> 00:56:06.050 but how about the countries 00:56:06.050 --> 00:56:08.250 that let us put our bases in them? 00:56:08.250 --> 00:56:10.370 Hey, let's move our troops and train together. 00:56:10.370 --> 00:56:12.600 I mean, you've got South Korea, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, 00:56:12.600 --> 00:56:15.750 Germany, Belgium, Italy, Qatar, Kuwait, 00:56:15.750 --> 00:56:17.220 Emirates, Japan, and Cambodia. 00:56:17.220 --> 00:56:19.290 And once again, I won't ask you, many of you, 00:56:19.290 --> 00:56:21.080 to point on the map where that is, 00:56:21.080 --> 00:56:22.650 but these are the people that actually say, 00:56:22.650 --> 00:56:25.650 we will have you here as a symbol that we are allied, 00:56:25.650 --> 00:56:28.690 and if it goes to, we will die together. 00:56:28.690 --> 00:56:32.560 How about countries that share threats? 00:56:32.560 --> 00:56:34.350 If you wanna say, and hey, 00:56:34.350 --> 00:56:36.390 I'm not agreeing with our foreign policy, 00:56:36.390 --> 00:56:38.720 but it's gonna be EU, India, Japan. 00:56:38.720 --> 00:56:39.570 Why? 00:56:39.570 --> 00:56:41.650 These are the biggest people threatened by Russia and China, 00:56:41.650 --> 00:56:45.280 who we've said is our greatest threat. 00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:51.250 Well, another way you can look at this is political. 00:56:51.250 --> 00:56:52.990 We kind of share more similarities 00:56:52.990 --> 00:56:55.280 with UK, Canada, Australia, and Japan. 00:56:55.280 --> 00:56:56.620 Culturally be about the same, 00:56:56.620 --> 00:56:58.980 except South Korea and the Netherlands. 00:56:58.980 --> 00:57:01.730 But here's the thing is, what about money? 00:57:01.730 --> 00:57:03.010 'Cause let's face it, 00:57:03.010 --> 00:57:05.740 if you're American first before you're a Christian, 00:57:05.740 --> 00:57:08.070 your God is the almighty dollar. 00:57:08.070 --> 00:57:10.080 That's what Americans worship. 00:57:10.080 --> 00:57:13.270 Well, then you'd care about your trade partners. 00:57:13.270 --> 00:57:15.750 That would be a very logical way. 00:57:15.750 --> 00:57:18.900 If you are money-oriented, your greatest allies 00:57:18.900 --> 00:57:20.150 are in this order. 00:57:20.150 --> 00:57:24.010 Mexico, which money what? 00:57:24.010 --> 00:57:27.050 Yeah, that border is to keep people out, not the dollar. 00:57:27.050 --> 00:57:29.560 We trade more with Mexico than anyone else, 00:57:29.560 --> 00:57:34.270 Canada than China, China. 00:57:34.270 --> 00:57:36.410 'Cause let me tell you this, 00:57:36.410 --> 00:57:38.130 if people think we're about to go to war in China, 00:57:38.130 --> 00:57:40.760 you're insane, because we can't. 00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:42.840 And they can't go to war with us currently, 00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:45.680 because both of us would collapse. 00:57:45.680 --> 00:57:48.340 We are so intertwined that I would say 00:57:48.340 --> 00:57:50.980 we're more of an ally to China than anything else, 00:57:50.980 --> 00:57:52.590 because we can't have their economy crash 00:57:52.590 --> 00:57:54.570 and they can't have ours to crash currently. 00:57:54.570 --> 00:57:57.680 In a decade, eventually China will not need us. 00:57:57.680 --> 00:58:02.350 But right now, money-wise, China is way more close 00:58:02.350 --> 00:58:07.690 of an ally than England, Korea, Japan, all-- we are-- 00:58:07.690 --> 00:58:09.940 we are reliant on China. 00:58:09.940 --> 00:58:12.530 If you did not know, when you buy your American flags 00:58:12.530 --> 00:58:14.100 for July 4th, where is it made? 00:58:14.100 --> 00:58:16.260 China, all right? 00:58:16.260 --> 00:58:18.400 That's where America's made currently. 00:58:18.400 --> 00:58:21.060 So that would be a way that you could justify 00:58:21.060 --> 00:58:22.600 that they're an ally. 00:58:22.600 --> 00:58:24.520 We rely upon them. 00:58:24.520 --> 00:58:28.600 Then religiously, well, what countries would be-- 00:58:28.600 --> 00:58:31.260 well, it'd be really just North European countries, 00:58:31.260 --> 00:58:36.050 Scandinavian kind of, like a general American similarities, 00:58:36.050 --> 00:58:38.250 or Sub-Saharan Africa. 00:58:38.250 --> 00:58:40.510 There's no other countries in the world 00:58:40.510 --> 00:58:43.220 that we could religiously ally with, 00:58:43.220 --> 00:58:45.860 because that's where Protestants in the form-- 00:58:45.860 --> 00:58:48.080 and I know about this, we don't claim that-- but that's 00:58:48.080 --> 00:58:50.170 the idea, like the few Protestant nations 00:58:50.170 --> 00:58:52.720 left in the world, that's it. 00:58:52.720 --> 00:58:55.130 So many of you are like, well, what are we talking about? 00:58:55.130 --> 00:58:57.270 Why are we talking about this on a Sunday evening? 00:58:57.270 --> 00:59:00.110 Well, as you know, I just went through a whole bunch of lists. 00:59:00.110 --> 00:59:02.560 I mean, many different countries mean many different categories, 00:59:02.560 --> 00:59:04.300 but there's one nation that doesn't come up 00:59:04.300 --> 00:59:06.660 on any of these. 00:59:06.660 --> 00:59:10.000 That would be the state of Israel. 00:59:10.000 --> 00:59:13.800 The state of Israel, it cannot be like, you're like, 00:59:13.800 --> 00:59:14.980 it's our greatest ally. 00:59:14.980 --> 00:59:18.690 Even if you think it's an ally, how do you call it our greatest? 00:59:18.690 --> 00:59:21.250 Like, any factual, realistic way, 00:59:21.250 --> 00:59:24.500 any worldly or spiritual way, if there's nothing else, 00:59:24.500 --> 00:59:28.420 I just want to kind of bring up that we don't have really 00:59:28.420 --> 00:59:31.850 any value in this alliance. 00:59:31.850 --> 00:59:34.850 It's a one-way relationship, 00:59:34.850 --> 00:59:40.130 and we are not the top dog in it, all right? 00:59:40.130 --> 00:59:42.190 But many pastors will get up and be like, 00:59:42.190 --> 00:59:45.550 "Our greatest ally, this is who we are. 00:59:45.550 --> 00:59:48.530 We've got to defend Israel." 00:59:48.530 --> 00:59:49.940 And my question would be, 00:59:49.940 --> 00:59:55.230 spiritually, religiously, economically, why? 00:59:55.230 --> 00:59:56.580 Why? 00:59:56.580 --> 00:59:59.400 What purpose or value does it add to us? 00:59:59.400 --> 01:00:01.980 And here's the thing, today I'm going to avoid 01:00:01.980 --> 01:00:03.920 conspiracies about the Jews and all that. 01:00:03.920 --> 01:00:05.630 I'm talking about the nation of Israel. 01:00:05.630 --> 01:00:07.050 If you don't think that exists, 01:00:07.050 --> 01:00:11.070 you're like, "Oh, you mentioned it, you're anti-Semitic." 01:00:11.070 --> 01:00:14.150 You have, you're so blind. 01:00:14.150 --> 01:00:15.970 Because let me tell you this, 01:00:15.970 --> 01:00:19.060 it's a nation that exists that has public policy 01:00:19.060 --> 01:00:20.600 that affects the world. 01:00:20.600 --> 01:00:24.300 Can we not talk about it? 01:00:24.300 --> 01:00:26.400 So I'm going to stay away from anything 01:00:26.400 --> 01:00:28.120 that you think is shadow government and all this. 01:00:28.120 --> 01:00:29.590 Let's just talk about fall things. 01:00:29.590 --> 01:00:32.570 But I'm going to tell you that it seems crazy to me 01:00:32.570 --> 01:00:35.120 that people would defend, they will throw their church. 01:00:35.120 --> 01:00:37.590 They'll say, "We've got to protect Israel. 01:00:37.590 --> 01:00:40.170 We've got to get into AIPAC and we've got to support it 01:00:40.170 --> 01:00:41.610 as much as possible." 01:00:41.610 --> 01:00:44.020 And you're like, "Well, you're mixing politics and all this." 01:00:44.020 --> 01:00:46.360 Israel is a political entity. 01:00:46.360 --> 01:00:48.190 That is what it exists in the world. 01:00:48.190 --> 01:00:50.780 It has nothing to do with the biblical Israel. 01:00:50.780 --> 01:00:54.190 But I will tell you this, let's just talk about, 01:00:54.190 --> 01:00:55.880 'cause if it's our greatest ally, 01:00:55.880 --> 01:01:00.260 it should be obvious in some way, shape or form. 01:01:00.260 --> 01:01:02.310 So here's the thing. 01:01:02.310 --> 01:01:05.660 I went through many of the ways that a military could be, 01:01:05.660 --> 01:01:08.400 and let's just go through them again. 01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:12.480 Did Israel provide troops? 01:01:12.480 --> 01:01:15.090 They've been around, theoretically, your greatest ally. 01:01:15.090 --> 01:01:18.470 Let me tell you one thing America doesn't lack is war. 01:01:18.470 --> 01:01:21.610 For a reason, we love just going into war. 01:01:21.610 --> 01:01:24.180 I'm not saying that's right, I'm not saying I agree with that, 01:01:24.180 --> 01:01:25.300 but let me tell you this. 01:01:25.300 --> 01:01:28.410 If your greatest ally somehow never shows up 01:01:28.410 --> 01:01:30.510 to the training match or the fight, 01:01:30.510 --> 01:01:34.410 are they your greatest ally? 01:01:34.410 --> 01:01:36.100 And I'm gonna tell you this. 01:01:36.100 --> 01:01:39.710 UK, Australia, South Korea, like I said, 01:01:39.710 --> 01:01:43.850 we fight alongside each other, and we've died together. 01:01:43.850 --> 01:01:46.140 Many of you are like, "Well, you know, they're not that big." 01:01:46.140 --> 01:01:47.780 You know, other countries, we have agreements. 01:01:47.780 --> 01:01:49.050 I'll tell you this. 01:01:49.050 --> 01:01:51.510 Japan, they don't send troops with us, 01:01:51.510 --> 01:01:55.580 but we are going to die if Japan gets invaded. 01:01:55.580 --> 01:01:59.290 We are allies, they just don't send to foreign wars. 01:01:59.290 --> 01:02:02.570 But against China, we have agreements with them in Taiwan 01:02:02.570 --> 01:02:06.620 that US boys are going to die if those, 01:02:06.620 --> 01:02:08.410 so we can at least say we have treaties, 01:02:08.410 --> 01:02:11.230 and we plan, we train to go to war. 01:02:11.230 --> 01:02:14.500 But you know who we don't do that with? 01:02:14.500 --> 01:02:16.790 Israel. 01:02:16.790 --> 01:02:19.270 Now, many of you may go, "Well, they're a small nation, 01:02:19.270 --> 01:02:21.580 "so I mean, they can't be that involved." 01:02:21.580 --> 01:02:24.160 Well, I want to tell you this, in Afghanistan, 01:02:24.160 --> 01:02:28.510 I served with soldiers from Qatar, 01:02:28.510 --> 01:02:32.050 the Emirates, and Macedonia. 01:02:32.050 --> 01:02:34.510 I use these because they are very small, 01:02:34.510 --> 01:02:36.010 of less population than Israel, 01:02:36.010 --> 01:02:37.980 and I doubt that most people in here 01:02:37.980 --> 01:02:40.350 could point to all of them on a map. 01:02:40.350 --> 01:02:42.930 But yet, they would send troops 01:02:42.930 --> 01:02:46.080 to fight along their ally, the U.S. 01:02:46.080 --> 01:02:48.630 Israel has not. 01:02:48.630 --> 01:02:51.450 They've never sent troops in support of us. 01:02:51.450 --> 01:02:54.510 They don't send money in support of us. 01:02:54.510 --> 01:02:57.860 Let me, you know, you're going around, 01:02:57.860 --> 01:03:02.930 let me give you a real clear example. 01:03:02.930 --> 01:03:07.270 Saddam Hussein, the ally of the U.S., 01:03:07.270 --> 01:03:10.270 who built him the fifth largest military in the world, 01:03:10.270 --> 01:03:14.190 fought a multi-year war for us against Iran, 01:03:14.190 --> 01:03:17.470 because Iran took England's oil. 01:03:17.470 --> 01:03:19.490 That's where Saddam Hussein came from. 01:03:19.490 --> 01:03:21.330 That's why the Middle East united against them, 01:03:21.330 --> 01:03:23.860 is because we built him a large military. 01:03:23.860 --> 01:03:25.450 We're not a good ally to have. 01:03:25.450 --> 01:03:27.660 There's another thing to go through. 01:03:27.660 --> 01:03:29.070 We overthrew him, 01:03:29.070 --> 01:03:32.540 but he supported us more than Israel ever has. 01:03:32.540 --> 01:03:34.830 You want a real clear one, 01:03:34.830 --> 01:03:37.740 how about a small organization that wasn't even a nation? 01:03:37.740 --> 01:03:41.160 They were a basically non-profit foreign entity. 01:03:41.160 --> 01:03:46.530 Osama bin Laden had hundreds of men die for the U.S. 01:03:46.530 --> 01:03:47.880 Because if you don't know, 01:03:47.880 --> 01:03:52.370 al-Qaeda during the '80s was our ally. 01:03:52.370 --> 01:03:55.740 That is why he was in Ronald Reagan's White House 01:03:55.740 --> 01:03:58.180 hearing this is a man who fights for freedom, 01:03:58.180 --> 01:04:00.600 'cause he fought with us as an ally. 01:04:00.600 --> 01:04:04.370 He had thousands of men throughout the world 01:04:04.370 --> 01:04:07.630 fight for our cause. 01:04:07.630 --> 01:04:10.620 That alliance didn't last either, 01:04:10.620 --> 01:04:12.840 but I'm just saying he has done more 01:04:12.840 --> 01:04:16.240 for the US fighting us than Israel. 01:04:16.240 --> 01:04:21.160 If you find this crazy, learn history. 01:04:21.160 --> 01:04:22.340 History ain't boring. 01:04:22.340 --> 01:04:24.230 History is more interesting 01:04:24.230 --> 01:04:27.060 than any reality TV show you'll ever listen, 01:04:27.060 --> 01:04:29.050 and it's real. 01:04:29.050 --> 01:04:30.610 'Cause I am honestly telling you, 01:04:30.610 --> 01:04:32.520 Osama Bin Laden has been a better ally 01:04:32.520 --> 01:04:35.040 to the US than Israel. 01:04:35.040 --> 01:04:36.930 If you think that's crazy, 01:04:36.930 --> 01:04:39.890 well, you don't know the history, 01:04:39.890 --> 01:04:41.280 'cause he has put more. 01:04:41.280 --> 01:04:42.620 How about bases? 01:04:42.620 --> 01:04:44.440 You're like, oh, you used all around the world. 01:04:44.440 --> 01:04:48.240 We're talking, we need, Israel is the stable democracy 01:04:48.240 --> 01:04:51.350 in the Middle East, so we gotta have a strong ally. 01:04:51.350 --> 01:04:54.110 We don't have a base in the nation. 01:04:54.110 --> 01:04:55.410 You know who we do have? 01:04:55.410 --> 01:04:59.810 Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the Emirates. 01:04:59.810 --> 01:05:02.910 These are the places that we actually keep our troops 01:05:02.910 --> 01:05:04.370 and we launch from. 01:05:04.370 --> 01:05:06.490 What good is Israel? 01:05:06.490 --> 01:05:09.700 You don't know Israel sometimes shuts their airspace to us 01:05:09.700 --> 01:05:12.240 'cause they're grumpy about something. 01:05:12.240 --> 01:05:15.830 Sometimes we can park our boats there to resupply, 01:05:15.830 --> 01:05:17.500 but not all the time. 01:05:17.500 --> 01:05:20.420 What's interesting is many of these other countries these, 01:05:20.420 --> 01:05:22.680 oh, well, the Islamic countries, 01:05:22.680 --> 01:05:27.040 yeah, they're a better ally to us, to our military forces. 01:05:27.040 --> 01:05:29.970 And whether like I don't agree with our foreign policy, 01:05:29.970 --> 01:05:31.520 but if you wanna say our foreign policy is, 01:05:31.520 --> 01:05:33.560 we don't need Israel at all. 01:05:33.560 --> 01:05:35.760 'Cause you know who's actually a much better ally? 01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:37.190 Turkey. 01:05:37.190 --> 01:05:41.000 We've had bases, missiles, silos, resources in Turkey 01:05:41.000 --> 01:05:44.010 for the last 60 years. 01:05:44.010 --> 01:05:44.920 And guess what? 01:05:44.920 --> 01:05:47.300 Israel is not a strategic partner 01:05:47.300 --> 01:05:49.450 when it comes to our military affairs. 01:05:49.450 --> 01:05:52.580 And to think so is nonsensical. 01:05:52.580 --> 01:05:57.070 How about countries that share a threat with us? 01:05:57.070 --> 01:05:59.760 'Cause you think, man, we gotta have allies to do this. 01:05:59.760 --> 01:06:01.570 And of course, I think most people would tell me, 01:06:01.570 --> 01:06:02.720 there's only really two answers 01:06:02.720 --> 01:06:04.380 I think most people would tell me. 01:06:04.380 --> 01:06:07.360 It's gonna be Russia or China. 01:06:07.360 --> 01:06:09.760 You know what's interesting about Russia? 01:06:09.760 --> 01:06:14.080 Do you know who has an unconditional ally of Russia? 01:06:14.080 --> 01:06:16.740 That'd be Israel. 01:06:16.740 --> 01:06:20.440 Israel is an unconditional ally of Russia. 01:06:20.440 --> 01:06:22.940 And the reason is, as Putin says, 01:06:22.940 --> 01:06:26.830 why would I ever not be an unconditional ally of Israel? 01:06:26.830 --> 01:06:29.150 It's a Russian colony. 01:06:29.150 --> 01:06:31.820 Because if you do not know, 01:06:31.820 --> 01:06:35.430 if you are blinded by whatever made up history you have, 01:06:35.430 --> 01:06:38.270 it's a bunch of Eastern Slavs that moved there 01:06:38.270 --> 01:06:40.020 after World War II. 01:06:40.020 --> 01:06:41.630 And if you don't understand, now see, 01:06:41.630 --> 01:06:43.000 a lot of people get confused with this, 01:06:43.000 --> 01:06:45.530 but let me just explain very quickly. 01:06:45.530 --> 01:06:47.410 In Putin's mind, Russian people 01:06:47.410 --> 01:06:49.650 are all Eastern Slavic people. 01:06:49.650 --> 01:06:51.290 Whether or not they're in Russia or not, 01:06:51.290 --> 01:06:54.310 he believes Russia should have all this area 01:06:54.310 --> 01:06:56.250 that's including Ukraine, that's all that. 01:06:56.250 --> 01:06:59.300 So whether they're Poles, and you can call this crazy, 01:06:59.300 --> 01:07:01.320 to actually think Russia and the U.S. are going to war 01:07:01.320 --> 01:07:04.840 is insane since they have the same leadership. 01:07:04.840 --> 01:07:07.090 And you're like, "Oh, that's conspiratorial." 01:07:07.090 --> 01:07:08.680 No, it is not. 01:07:08.680 --> 01:07:10.910 You can literally read any of that. 01:07:10.910 --> 01:07:14.780 The Israeli dual-citizenships are the billionaires 01:07:14.780 --> 01:07:16.680 in their country, just like they are here. 01:07:16.680 --> 01:07:19.130 And I literally found an article in the last two weeks 01:07:19.130 --> 01:07:21.030 where they're literally complaining about 01:07:21.030 --> 01:07:22.890 why do these dual-citizenship have 01:07:22.890 --> 01:07:25.930 all the powerful positions in our government? 01:07:25.930 --> 01:07:28.980 Why do dual-citizenship have every position 01:07:28.980 --> 01:07:31.620 in Biden's administration? 01:07:31.620 --> 01:07:34.920 'Cause you know who doesn't have that? 01:07:34.920 --> 01:07:37.840 The Muslims don't have that. 01:07:37.840 --> 01:07:39.070 They're not one country. 01:07:39.070 --> 01:07:41.800 Yeah, I know there's a Muslim in the New York mayor, 01:07:41.800 --> 01:07:42.670 but guess what? 01:07:42.670 --> 01:07:43.780 It isn't all of them, 01:07:43.780 --> 01:07:46.240 and it's not one nation they're swearing to. 01:07:46.240 --> 01:07:48.280 Minnesota may have problems with Somalia, 01:07:48.280 --> 01:07:51.760 but our whole nation seems to have a dual-citizenship 01:07:51.760 --> 01:07:53.110 that seems to control this. 01:07:53.110 --> 01:07:53.940 Guess what? 01:07:53.940 --> 01:07:56.690 Russia does too. 01:07:56.690 --> 01:08:00.420 Israel is not our ally against Russia. 01:08:00.420 --> 01:08:03.270 So if you think that's our greatest threat, 01:08:03.270 --> 01:08:04.210 you've got a problem here. 01:08:04.210 --> 01:08:05.540 And let me tell you this. 01:08:05.540 --> 01:08:09.100 In Proverbs 20 and verse 22 and verse 24, it says, 01:08:09.100 --> 01:08:10.840 "Make no friendship with an angry man, 01:08:10.840 --> 01:08:13.420 and with a furious man thou shall not go, 01:08:13.420 --> 01:08:17.690 lest thou learn his ways and get a snare to thy soul." 01:08:17.690 --> 01:08:18.940 Let me tell you this. 01:08:18.940 --> 01:08:21.120 We ally with people that want to go to war all the time. 01:08:21.120 --> 01:08:22.020 Let me tell you this. 01:08:22.020 --> 01:08:25.320 That little pseudo state in the Middle East 01:08:25.320 --> 01:08:27.020 has been at war constantly. 01:08:27.020 --> 01:08:29.240 They're probably the only country that currently exists 01:08:29.240 --> 01:08:32.560 that can go to America like, keep up the op tempo, man. 01:08:32.560 --> 01:08:35.340 You do wars and you take a break, you do wars. 01:08:35.340 --> 01:08:39.080 Israel is just like, let's just go, full time. 01:08:39.080 --> 01:08:43.550 Let's just fight. 01:08:43.550 --> 01:08:45.630 Your thing is, well, other people like, well, remember, 01:08:45.630 --> 01:08:48.280 we need to worry about our partners and our allies 01:08:48.280 --> 01:08:50.720 because our economy. 01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:54.460 Well, I think it's weird that many states have laws 01:08:54.460 --> 01:08:56.620 against boycotting Israel. 01:08:56.620 --> 01:09:01.150 What a pointless law to show who actually has influence 01:09:01.150 --> 01:09:03.240 in our government that literally Israel 01:09:03.240 --> 01:09:08.260 has able to put anti-boycott Israel products in the US, 01:09:08.260 --> 01:09:14.950 laws in the US, because Israel is less than 0.5 of 1% 01:09:14.950 --> 01:09:17.560 of our trade. 01:09:17.560 --> 01:09:20.650 If Israel got nuked off the map, I'm 01:09:20.650 --> 01:09:23.410 sorry our economy wouldn't change. 01:09:23.410 --> 01:09:25.240 I'm not-- there's no justification for that, 01:09:25.240 --> 01:09:29.410 but I'm just saying they're insignificant to our economy. 01:09:29.410 --> 01:09:32.800 And let me tell you, if we actually did boycott them, 01:09:32.800 --> 01:09:34.650 you know what would we lose? 01:09:34.650 --> 01:09:37.450 Hormone therapy for children. 01:09:37.450 --> 01:09:40.280 That's where we import these drugs. 01:09:40.280 --> 01:09:43.800 Diamonds, which I thought was very interesting since there's 01:09:43.800 --> 01:09:51.360 not one diamond mine in Israel, but that's our main export. 01:09:51.360 --> 01:09:54.360 And then there's certain tech like spyware 01:09:54.360 --> 01:09:57.380 that we buy from them for government reasons. 01:09:57.380 --> 01:10:00.550 That is what we would lose economically. 01:10:00.550 --> 01:10:03.900 So if you're telling me, man, we got to outlie Israel 01:10:03.900 --> 01:10:08.140 and we got to attack China, I hope 01:10:08.140 --> 01:10:11.470 you have your bunker ready to go because I'm going to tell you 01:10:11.470 --> 01:10:14.350 it's going to hurt a lot more if China blocks us than Israel. 01:10:14.350 --> 01:10:17.080 If we boycott Israel, there is not going to be a big loss. 01:10:17.080 --> 01:10:19.480 But here the thing is, economically it's not just that. 01:10:19.480 --> 01:10:25.080 Economically, we send billions a year to them. 01:10:25.080 --> 01:10:28.730 On a normal year without war, it's 4 to 5 billion dollars 01:10:28.730 --> 01:10:30.480 we send to maintain their military. 01:10:30.480 --> 01:10:32.340 But hey, in the last couple of years, 01:10:32.340 --> 01:10:34.160 they've been doing a genocide. 01:10:34.160 --> 01:10:35.950 You know who pays for that? 01:10:35.950 --> 01:10:37.440 You do. 01:10:37.440 --> 01:10:43.170 We just agreed to $35 billion this year, 01:10:43.170 --> 01:10:45.710 $35 billion next year, which means 01:10:45.710 --> 01:10:47.450 they're not stopping their operations 01:10:47.450 --> 01:10:49.030 to kill the Palestinians. 01:10:49.030 --> 01:10:51.380 Well, you know, they're enemies of Christ. 01:10:51.380 --> 01:10:53.390 Israel's an enemy of Christ. 01:10:53.390 --> 01:10:54.470 But let me tell you this. 01:10:54.470 --> 01:10:57.290 If you're in a position of power as a colony state, 01:10:57.290 --> 01:10:58.600 and all you're doing is shutting off 01:10:58.600 --> 01:11:00.190 water to people in the desert, 01:11:00.190 --> 01:11:02.420 and you think that is moral in any single way, 01:11:02.420 --> 01:11:04.530 and you think God smiles upon that, 01:11:04.530 --> 01:11:06.590 well, you know, they're not Christian. 01:11:06.590 --> 01:11:08.540 Neither are the Jews. 01:11:08.540 --> 01:11:11.300 So if you think it's okay for them 01:11:11.300 --> 01:11:13.180 to literally genocide the people 01:11:13.180 --> 01:11:17.330 just because, you know, the TV tells you so, 01:11:17.330 --> 01:11:18.670 there's something wrong with you. 01:11:18.670 --> 01:11:22.430 Well, you know, I saw that they were hiding 01:11:22.430 --> 01:11:24.250 munitions in a hospital. 01:11:24.250 --> 01:11:26.990 Oh, hospitals that the Israelis blew up 01:11:26.990 --> 01:11:30.360 with children, women in them. 01:11:30.360 --> 01:11:31.810 Oh, you're talking about the nation 01:11:31.810 --> 01:11:35.080 that justifies their soldiers raping male captives, 01:11:35.080 --> 01:11:37.270 not just women, they rape everyone, 01:11:37.270 --> 01:11:42.140 but then these soldiers that in 2004 are doing a tour 01:11:42.140 --> 01:11:44.490 talking about, oh, please have pity for us. 01:11:44.490 --> 01:11:46.400 And they're getting standard impressions 01:11:46.400 --> 01:11:49.830 from mentally ill people that these rapists, 01:11:49.830 --> 01:11:54.460 these queer, faggity rapists for your holy nation, 01:11:54.460 --> 01:11:57.010 and that nation defends them because it says, 01:11:57.010 --> 01:11:58.000 well, they were the enemy. 01:11:58.000 --> 01:11:59.200 It's to terrorize them. 01:11:59.200 --> 01:12:01.050 It's really for the good. 01:12:01.050 --> 01:12:03.710 There's something wrong with you. 01:12:03.710 --> 01:12:06.240 And if you're like, this is anti-Semitic, 01:12:06.240 --> 01:12:09.210 I'm talking about a nation and their policy. 01:12:09.210 --> 01:12:12.550 And if your nation supports your soldiers 01:12:12.550 --> 01:12:15.600 raping your captives, they're already caught up, 01:12:15.600 --> 01:12:18.530 locked up in your jails, and you get to rape them, 01:12:18.530 --> 01:12:23.440 you're not on God's side. 01:12:23.440 --> 01:12:26.570 We gotta defend our greatest ally. 01:12:26.570 --> 01:12:27.730 No, we do not. 01:12:27.730 --> 01:12:29.640 So let me just put this in perspective. 01:12:29.640 --> 01:12:31.070 You know, a lot of you are losing minds 01:12:31.070 --> 01:12:33.100 that I'm not the biggest for social programs, 01:12:33.100 --> 01:12:35.090 but here's the thing is, we have this whole thing like, 01:12:35.090 --> 01:12:36.960 it's impossible for us to just, 01:12:36.960 --> 01:12:39.020 the government just takes on the student loan debt 01:12:39.020 --> 01:12:40.060 and just pays it all off. 01:12:40.060 --> 01:12:42.870 Like, I mean, our economy, we couldn't do that. 01:12:42.870 --> 01:12:45.350 Just from their perspective, 01:12:45.350 --> 01:12:47.030 the insane amount of debt we're in 01:12:47.030 --> 01:12:50.550 for student loan is 140 billion. 01:12:50.550 --> 01:12:52.580 We count everything we give to Israel, 01:12:52.580 --> 01:12:55.160 that's basically four years. 01:12:55.160 --> 01:12:57.800 One president just says, 01:12:57.800 --> 01:12:59.300 we're not gonna give to Israel, 01:12:59.300 --> 01:13:01.700 we're just gonna pay our debt off of our citizens. 01:13:01.700 --> 01:13:03.400 It's gone. 01:13:03.400 --> 01:13:07.020 Something that took us 50 years to get in debt for, 01:13:07.020 --> 01:13:09.360 literally could be gone in four years. 01:13:09.360 --> 01:13:11.140 I'm not saying that's the right policy. 01:13:11.140 --> 01:13:12.400 I just wanna put that in perspective 01:13:12.400 --> 01:13:13.220 when people have these, 01:13:13.220 --> 01:13:15.900 oh, it's impossible that we do. 01:13:15.900 --> 01:13:18.270 Dude, we just don't spend money on genocide. 01:13:18.270 --> 01:13:24.520 Like we got money to help people. 01:13:24.520 --> 01:13:25.350 And here's the thing is, 01:13:25.350 --> 01:13:27.450 like you wanna sum up basically our relationship 01:13:27.450 --> 01:13:29.590 with Israel, it's Proverbs 11 verse one, it says, 01:13:29.590 --> 01:13:32.370 a false balance is an abomination of the Lord, 01:13:32.370 --> 01:13:34.710 but a just wait is his delight. 01:13:34.710 --> 01:13:37.500 We are not, Israel does not support us. 01:13:37.500 --> 01:13:39.290 They do not send men with us. 01:13:39.290 --> 01:13:42.700 We, they don't, you know, even politically stand by us. 01:13:42.700 --> 01:13:44.610 'Cause let me tell you this, you're again, 01:13:44.610 --> 01:13:46.950 you think Israel is against China or Russia, 01:13:46.950 --> 01:13:49.140 you are insane. 01:13:49.140 --> 01:13:52.770 Israel has been a close ally of them because, 01:13:52.770 --> 01:13:55.230 hey, if you don't understand this, 01:13:55.230 --> 01:13:59.910 politically communism came because in the same group 01:13:59.910 --> 01:14:03.660 that just supported the new mayor in New York, 01:14:03.660 --> 01:14:06.930 which is the Jewish council of New York, 01:14:06.930 --> 01:14:08.710 they're the ones who stated that communism 01:14:08.710 --> 01:14:12.260 is just Judaism turned into politics. 01:14:12.260 --> 01:14:13.300 And that's not a conspiracy, 01:14:13.300 --> 01:14:15.920 that's what they said for 50 years. 01:14:15.920 --> 01:14:18.080 If you think they're against communism, 01:14:18.080 --> 01:14:20.380 no, they're not against communism. 01:14:20.380 --> 01:14:22.910 That's what they want for the Gentile. 01:14:22.910 --> 01:14:25.110 And that's just open understanding. 01:14:25.110 --> 01:14:27.040 So if you're anti-communist, 01:14:27.040 --> 01:14:29.240 you cannot support the Israeli nation 01:14:29.240 --> 01:14:32.700 because that's what they're supporting everywhere. 01:14:32.700 --> 01:14:36.150 Now you're like, oh, but they're our greatest 01:14:36.150 --> 01:14:38.500 long-term ally, one, that's just crazy. 01:14:38.500 --> 01:14:41.500 'Cause you know who's our longest treaty holder? 01:14:41.500 --> 01:14:44.430 None of you would probably know this, Morocco. 01:14:44.430 --> 01:14:47.330 The first treaty the US ever signed, 01:14:47.330 --> 01:14:50.490 one of the first nations that recognized us as a nation 01:14:50.490 --> 01:14:53.570 was Morocco in 1787. 01:14:53.570 --> 01:14:54.860 And we still hold this. 01:14:54.860 --> 01:14:56.860 This treaty wasn't just a historical event. 01:14:56.860 --> 01:14:58.990 It's still upheld every year. 01:14:58.990 --> 01:15:01.660 It's our right to trade and travel within their lands, 01:15:01.660 --> 01:15:04.940 and they have the same right in our ports to do the same. 01:15:04.940 --> 01:15:08.390 So if you want longevity, it's Morocco. 01:15:08.390 --> 01:15:11.490 If you want serving with us, it's Korea. 01:15:11.490 --> 01:15:14.140 If it's bases in the Middle East, Qatar. 01:15:14.140 --> 01:15:16.140 I'm using these things 'cause most of you, 01:15:16.140 --> 01:15:18.290 and I'm not trying to be mean, 01:15:18.290 --> 01:15:21.800 unless you're really big into geography and politics, 01:15:21.800 --> 01:15:23.660 you don't know where these places are. 01:15:23.660 --> 01:15:26.080 But these are places that actually work with the U.S., 01:15:26.080 --> 01:15:27.960 that actually probably benefit with us 01:15:27.960 --> 01:15:30.110 and actually support us. 01:15:30.110 --> 01:15:35.670 Amazingly, that little non-necessary country 01:15:35.670 --> 01:15:38.200 in the Middle East isn't on this list. 01:15:38.200 --> 01:15:41.360 In Proverbs 22, in verse 28, it says, 01:15:41.360 --> 01:15:43.390 "Remove not the ancient landmarks 01:15:43.390 --> 01:15:45.660 "which thy fathers have set." 01:15:45.660 --> 01:15:47.230 In Proverbs 23, in verse 10, it says, 01:15:47.230 --> 01:15:49.050 "Remove not the old landmarks 01:15:49.050 --> 01:15:51.150 "and enter not in the fields of the fatherless, 01:15:51.150 --> 01:15:53.640 "for their Redeemer is mighty, 01:15:53.640 --> 01:15:56.760 "and he shall plead the cause with thee." 01:15:56.760 --> 01:15:59.340 Understand that for the longest time, 01:15:59.340 --> 01:16:01.260 we upheld Christendom. 01:16:01.260 --> 01:16:04.120 Very unified idea in that, 01:16:04.120 --> 01:16:07.810 but we didn't make such allies with enemies of Christ. 01:16:07.810 --> 01:16:12.630 You at least needed to uphold that Christ was something 01:16:12.630 --> 01:16:16.090 for us to hold any type of military idea with you. 01:16:16.090 --> 01:16:17.790 Otherwise, we would reject it. 01:16:17.790 --> 01:16:20.150 For a long time, the U.S. wouldn't even uphold 01:16:20.150 --> 01:16:21.310 with Catholic countries, 01:16:21.310 --> 01:16:23.910 'cause they're like, "You don't uphold Christ." 01:16:23.910 --> 01:16:25.270 We relaxed on that. 01:16:25.270 --> 01:16:27.100 But now it's pretty much, if you are a Christian, 01:16:27.100 --> 01:16:32.880 I think, anyway, it's just crazy to me. 01:16:32.880 --> 01:16:34.950 Now here's the thing is, politically, 01:16:34.950 --> 01:16:37.260 I don't think there's really anyone we can agree with. 01:16:37.260 --> 01:16:39.290 The world's just gone crazy. 01:16:39.290 --> 01:16:40.160 But I will tell you this. 01:16:40.160 --> 01:16:41.550 In Proverbs 23 and verse nine, it says, 01:16:41.550 --> 01:16:43.660 "Speak not in the ears of a fool, 01:16:43.660 --> 01:16:47.680 for he will despise the wisdom of thy words." 01:16:47.680 --> 01:16:49.430 Here's the thing is, like, politically, 01:16:49.430 --> 01:16:52.900 you could think like the UK or Japan or Australia, 01:16:52.900 --> 01:16:55.440 like they're similar, they hold courts, 01:16:55.440 --> 01:16:59.250 they have similar laws and practices. 01:16:59.250 --> 01:17:06.230 Well, Israel is a fascist, racist, you know, dual. 01:17:06.230 --> 01:17:10.290 They get angry if you say partied, 01:17:10.290 --> 01:17:12.980 but it's, partied means two, 01:17:12.980 --> 01:17:16.010 and the country is split into two areas 01:17:16.010 --> 01:17:19.450 based on race, world no religion. 01:17:19.450 --> 01:17:21.340 Now, Christians get kicked out. 01:17:21.340 --> 01:17:23.450 Christians are in Palestine. 01:17:23.450 --> 01:17:26.070 Christians are there. 01:17:26.070 --> 01:17:30.530 You're either Jew from Russia or you're nobody. 01:17:30.530 --> 01:17:32.340 You're like, "Oh, well, that's not the way it works." 01:17:32.340 --> 01:17:33.160 Really? 01:17:33.160 --> 01:17:35.740 Because Israel has no problem kicking you out. 01:17:35.740 --> 01:17:38.350 If you're not the type of Jew they like, 01:17:38.350 --> 01:17:41.000 they will kill you, they will, 01:17:41.000 --> 01:17:43.140 they might just kill you if you're Palestinian. 01:17:43.140 --> 01:17:44.720 But if you're actually an Israeli citizen, 01:17:44.720 --> 01:17:45.740 they'll just take your passport 01:17:45.740 --> 01:17:47.240 and kick you out of the country. 01:17:47.240 --> 01:17:50.150 They do this with Africans all the time. 01:17:50.150 --> 01:17:53.490 If you don't know, they just take 10,000 Africans 01:17:53.490 --> 01:17:55.650 that are Israeli citizens and go, 01:17:55.650 --> 01:17:57.250 "You're not what we're looking for. 01:17:57.250 --> 01:17:58.940 Take your passport and they just deport you 01:17:58.940 --> 01:18:01.490 to what country they want." 01:18:01.490 --> 01:18:03.530 Well, you know, this or that. 01:18:03.530 --> 01:18:06.430 They were Jews from Ethiopia. 01:18:06.430 --> 01:18:10.080 They've been Jews for a thousand years. 01:18:10.080 --> 01:18:11.910 But when you're a fascist state 01:18:11.910 --> 01:18:13.580 and you're not mixing into what they like, 01:18:13.580 --> 01:18:17.100 and hey, if you're from Poland, 01:18:17.100 --> 01:18:22.000 hard to have the same look that you're going for. 01:18:22.000 --> 01:18:24.670 And they do this all the time. 01:18:24.670 --> 01:18:27.300 And you're like, "Well, you know, politically, you know, 01:18:27.300 --> 01:18:30.350 I don't, why is there this Palestinian community 01:18:30.350 --> 01:18:31.940 that protests in Spokane?" 01:18:31.940 --> 01:18:32.950 Good question. 01:18:32.950 --> 01:18:36.580 'Cause Israel pays to have them moved here. 01:18:36.580 --> 01:18:38.840 All the nonprofits that move them, 01:18:38.840 --> 01:18:40.280 and what's the New Hope, right? 01:18:40.280 --> 01:18:44.510 It was a hotel right across I-90 in downtown Spokane. 01:18:44.510 --> 01:18:46.070 That's all funded by the Israeli government, 01:18:46.070 --> 01:18:49.250 which is funded by your tax dollars receiving money. 01:18:49.250 --> 01:18:51.350 They take the people they don't like in their nation, 01:18:51.350 --> 01:18:54.680 and they drop them everywhere else in the world. 01:18:54.680 --> 01:18:56.380 Because it's an ethnic state. 01:18:56.380 --> 01:18:58.330 And if you don't know, that's ethnic cleansing, 01:18:58.330 --> 01:19:01.610 which is justified as genocide. 01:19:01.610 --> 01:19:05.310 Because when you're making a colony, 01:19:05.310 --> 01:19:07.030 and you're from Poland and Russia, 01:19:07.030 --> 01:19:11.040 and unfortunately there's people there already, 01:19:11.040 --> 01:19:13.670 they go to war, they destabilize the area. 01:19:13.670 --> 01:19:15.480 'Cause one of the craziest things people say politically 01:19:15.480 --> 01:19:18.130 is like, they're the only stable country there. 01:19:18.130 --> 01:19:20.650 They're the ones who unstabled everything. 01:19:20.650 --> 01:19:22.810 Oh, they've been fighting there forever. 01:19:22.810 --> 01:19:25.080 Not really, the Ottomans kind of held it together 01:19:25.080 --> 01:19:31.300 pretty well for like 800 years, or sorry, 600 years. 01:19:31.300 --> 01:19:35.140 There wasn't a lot of inter-fighting there. 01:19:35.140 --> 01:19:36.770 That whole idea, well, you know, 01:19:36.770 --> 01:19:38.620 if you go back to Romans and this, 01:19:38.620 --> 01:19:40.720 why is it when we talk about the state of Israel, 01:19:40.720 --> 01:19:45.320 somehow there's a 2,000 year gap in anyone's understanding? 01:19:45.320 --> 01:19:48.290 All right, I don't know if you can say, 01:19:48.290 --> 01:19:49.860 I don't know 2,000 years from now, 01:19:49.860 --> 01:19:51.950 there's gonna be a few people get together and be like, 01:19:51.950 --> 01:19:54.140 actually, we're real Texans, so you know what, 01:19:54.140 --> 01:19:56.730 we get our own country. 01:19:56.730 --> 01:19:58.960 Who's gonna laugh at that? 01:19:58.960 --> 01:20:01.560 But strangely, a bunch of Polish people show up 01:20:01.560 --> 01:20:03.900 and they go, well, actually, this is our area, 01:20:03.900 --> 01:20:06.040 which is weird 'cause you've actually understand 01:20:06.040 --> 01:20:07.830 any type of history if you're like, 01:20:07.830 --> 01:20:10.710 well, no, that's the blood of Abraham. 01:20:10.710 --> 01:20:15.160 No, you are all much closer to Abraham, 01:20:15.160 --> 01:20:16.760 and that's just mathematically thin, 01:20:16.760 --> 01:20:23.040 but the, my goodness, oh, what is the people? 01:20:23.040 --> 01:20:25.150 People just north, Turkey will not give them 01:20:25.150 --> 01:20:26.720 their own country. 01:20:26.720 --> 01:20:30.120 I cannot think of the name right now. 01:20:30.120 --> 01:20:32.570 No, no, no, Turkey. 01:20:32.570 --> 01:20:35.350 No, no, no, it's okay, I'll come back to it. 01:20:35.350 --> 01:20:37.270 But basically, in the Middle East, 01:20:37.270 --> 01:20:41.580 in North Iraq, in Turkey, in the Kurds, 01:20:41.580 --> 01:20:44.200 if you do not understand, the Kurds, 01:20:44.200 --> 01:20:45.680 the reason why everyone hates them there 01:20:45.680 --> 01:20:48.870 is those were the Jews kicked out of Judea 01:20:48.870 --> 01:20:50.910 by the Romans that were not allowed back. 01:20:50.910 --> 01:20:54.650 They became the Kurds, everyone hates them, all right? 01:20:54.650 --> 01:20:57.020 They are not allowed to have their own nation. 01:20:57.020 --> 01:20:59.220 Every nation there will ally with each other 01:20:59.220 --> 01:21:01.830 to not have them do it because they're all despised. 01:21:01.830 --> 01:21:04.600 Now, why do Americans not know that? 01:21:04.600 --> 01:21:07.230 Because they're Islamic. 01:21:07.230 --> 01:21:10.180 Like, "Oh, see, they can't be the children of Abraham." 01:21:10.180 --> 01:21:13.890 The rabbinical Judaism's younger than Christianity. 01:21:13.890 --> 01:21:17.670 It was made after Christ had already came. 01:21:17.670 --> 01:21:19.850 And let's go through there, 'cause a lot of people would say, 01:21:19.850 --> 01:21:21.230 "Oh, well, you know, you're going through, 01:21:21.230 --> 01:21:22.760 "but you're missing the big point." 01:21:22.760 --> 01:21:25.270 God has a plan for those people. 01:21:25.270 --> 01:21:26.330 God has it. 01:21:26.330 --> 01:21:29.440 I just told you, if you do not honor the son of Christ, 01:21:29.440 --> 01:21:31.480 you are of anti-Christ. 01:21:31.480 --> 01:21:32.780 The Bible is very clear. 01:21:32.780 --> 01:21:35.760 If you do not have the son, you do not have the father. 01:21:35.760 --> 01:21:37.710 In John 3 verse 15, it says, 01:21:37.710 --> 01:21:39.380 "Whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 01:21:39.380 --> 01:21:40.210 but have eternal life. 01:21:40.210 --> 01:21:42.280 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, 01:21:42.280 --> 01:21:43.980 that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 01:21:43.980 --> 01:21:46.250 but have everlasting life. 01:21:46.250 --> 01:21:48.510 For God sent not his son to the world to condemn the world, 01:21:48.510 --> 01:21:53.580 but that the world through him might be saved." 01:21:53.580 --> 01:21:57.810 This is what the Pharisees did by large. 01:21:57.810 --> 01:21:59.650 They just, they forsook. 01:21:59.650 --> 01:22:01.450 Christ was in front of them. 01:22:01.450 --> 01:22:04.380 Christ literally preached to them. 01:22:04.380 --> 01:22:06.360 Now here's the thing is, oh no, 01:22:06.360 --> 01:22:09.250 the rabbinical religion is much older. 01:22:09.250 --> 01:22:13.110 Well, let me tell you, the only part that is older 01:22:13.110 --> 01:22:15.240 is the spirit of antichrist, 01:22:15.240 --> 01:22:17.760 which if you believe Christ in Mark 7, 01:22:17.760 --> 01:22:19.470 he said in verse 5, it says, 01:22:19.470 --> 01:22:20.910 "Then the Pharisee and scribes asked him," 01:22:20.910 --> 01:22:21.870 that's Christ, 01:22:21.870 --> 01:22:24.060 "Why walk he not thy disciples 01:22:24.060 --> 01:22:25.820 according to the tradition of the elders, 01:22:25.820 --> 01:22:27.570 but eat bread with unwashing hands? 01:22:27.570 --> 01:22:29.130 He answered and said unto them, 01:22:29.130 --> 01:22:31.960 'We hath desired the prophesied unto you hypocrites,' 01:22:31.960 --> 01:22:32.960 as it was written, 01:22:32.960 --> 01:22:35.190 'The people honor me with the lips, 01:22:35.190 --> 01:22:37.190 but their heart is far from me, 01:22:37.190 --> 01:22:39.940 howbeit in vain do they worship me. 01:22:39.940 --> 01:22:43.330 Teach me for the doctrines, the commandments of men. 01:22:43.330 --> 01:22:45.320 For laying aside the commandments of God, 01:22:45.320 --> 01:22:47.040 ye hold to the tradition of men, 01:22:47.040 --> 01:22:48.600 as the washing of pots and the cups, 01:22:48.600 --> 01:22:50.630 and many such things ye do.' 01:22:50.630 --> 01:22:51.870 And they said unto them, 01:22:51.870 --> 01:22:55.750 'For we, for well, ye reject the commandments of God, 01:22:55.750 --> 01:22:58.750 that ye may keep your own traditions.' 01:22:58.750 --> 01:23:02.650 If you want to understand the rabbinical religion 01:23:02.650 --> 01:23:04.270 that's called Judaism now, 01:23:04.270 --> 01:23:06.460 that's Christ talking about it. 01:23:06.460 --> 01:23:09.020 You reject God. 01:23:09.020 --> 01:23:11.040 And this is when Christ was there. 01:23:11.040 --> 01:23:12.860 You reject the commandments of God 01:23:12.860 --> 01:23:14.750 to keep the traditions of your elders. 01:23:14.750 --> 01:23:18.260 And that is what rabbinical Judaism is. 01:23:18.260 --> 01:23:20.520 Any part of the Mosaic law, 01:23:20.520 --> 01:23:24.100 any part of the Mosaic seat that was in the remnants, 01:23:24.100 --> 01:23:27.790 and Christ continuously criticized the Pharisees 01:23:27.790 --> 01:23:29.300 for being hypocrites, 01:23:29.300 --> 01:23:31.800 but they still were in the seed of Moses. 01:23:31.800 --> 01:23:32.920 But guess what? 01:23:32.920 --> 01:23:37.770 God, through the Romans, destroyed the seed of Moses. 01:23:37.770 --> 01:23:40.890 He removed that completely out. 01:23:40.890 --> 01:23:44.660 The Mosaic religion was done away completely 01:23:44.660 --> 01:23:46.650 and only a surviving elder, 01:23:46.650 --> 01:23:48.510 because the temple workers, 01:23:48.510 --> 01:23:51.530 the center point of that entire religion was destroyed. 01:23:51.530 --> 01:23:55.150 And the couple of Pharisees that were left had to, 01:23:55.150 --> 01:23:57.930 they called it the Reformation in Judaism, 01:23:57.930 --> 01:24:00.580 'cause they had to reform and make a new religion, 01:24:00.580 --> 01:24:03.710 because the center point of the religion is gone. 01:24:03.710 --> 01:24:05.950 It's not the same thing. 01:24:05.950 --> 01:24:08.110 Now here's the thing is, I already told you, 01:24:08.110 --> 01:24:11.300 if you do not honor Christ, you are the spirit of antichrist, 01:24:11.300 --> 01:24:13.410 and you're like, "Well, God has a plan for him." 01:24:13.410 --> 01:24:15.480 Well, in Revelation 3, 9, it says, 01:24:15.480 --> 01:24:18.830 "Behold, I will make them the synagogue of Satan, 01:24:18.830 --> 01:24:22.860 which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie. 01:24:22.860 --> 01:24:25.770 Behold, I will make them come and worship before thy feet, 01:24:25.770 --> 01:24:28.320 and to know that I have loved thee." 01:24:28.320 --> 01:24:30.870 And that thee is speaking to save people. 01:24:30.870 --> 01:24:33.700 People argue like, "Oh, well, God left a remnant." 01:24:33.700 --> 01:24:35.560 Yeah, who was that remnant? 01:24:35.560 --> 01:24:38.330 It was the Jews that would have faith on God, 01:24:38.330 --> 01:24:42.130 which means they fell for, they went for Christ, 01:24:42.130 --> 01:24:43.600 and they became saved. 01:24:43.600 --> 01:24:46.710 Paul is the key person who shows this. 01:24:46.710 --> 01:24:48.850 He was a Pharisee of the Pharisee, 01:24:48.850 --> 01:24:50.310 but you know what, when he died, 01:24:50.310 --> 01:24:53.350 he didn't tell people, I'm a phariseeical Jew. 01:24:53.350 --> 01:24:58.070 He said, I am a Christian, I am a Christ lover, 01:24:58.070 --> 01:25:01.160 and there is no difference between Greek or Gentile, 01:25:01.160 --> 01:25:04.910 there is no difference between the Greek or the Jew. 01:25:04.910 --> 01:25:08.170 There is no difference between the Jew and Gentile. 01:25:08.170 --> 01:25:10.430 They are one in Christ. 01:25:10.430 --> 01:25:12.060 And if you do not uphold that, 01:25:12.060 --> 01:25:14.290 if you believe genealogy matters, 01:25:14.290 --> 01:25:17.190 bloodline matters for God's plan, 01:25:17.190 --> 01:25:20.410 you have obviously not read the Bible enough. 01:25:20.410 --> 01:25:23.660 You have read commentaries, you've watched Fox News, 01:25:23.660 --> 01:25:26.810 you have turned on documentaries made 01:25:26.810 --> 01:25:28.420 by people that have the Star of David 01:25:28.420 --> 01:25:31.560 somewhere in their profile, all right? 01:25:31.560 --> 01:25:33.140 And let me tell you, doesn't it make sense 01:25:33.140 --> 01:25:34.790 that someone that's an Israeli supporter 01:25:34.790 --> 01:25:37.020 make documentaries to support Israel? 01:25:37.020 --> 01:25:41.550 But you're not going to find that in Biblical Christianity. 01:25:41.550 --> 01:25:46.020 In Hebrews 8, it even says, in 13, it says, 01:25:46.020 --> 01:25:49.670 "In that he said, a new covenant he hath made, the first old, 01:25:49.670 --> 01:25:53.380 now that which decayeth and waxes old is ready to vanish." 01:25:53.380 --> 01:25:59.160 Understand, the New Testament takes the old and washes it away. 01:25:59.160 --> 01:26:01.600 The old commandments were given as a sign. 01:26:01.600 --> 01:26:04.230 The practices, the cleaning, the sacrifices 01:26:04.230 --> 01:26:06.710 was a symbol of the things that should come, 01:26:06.710 --> 01:26:08.380 a symbol of what would come. 01:26:08.380 --> 01:26:12.210 In Hebrews 9 verse 6, it says, "Now when these things were thus ordained, 01:26:12.210 --> 01:26:14.690 the priest went always into the first tabernacle, 01:26:14.690 --> 01:26:16.400 accomplishing the services of God. 01:26:16.400 --> 01:26:20.950 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, 01:26:20.950 --> 01:26:25.380 not without blood, which he offered himself for the heirs of people." 01:26:25.380 --> 01:26:29.810 The Holy Ghost, this signified that the way of the holiness 01:26:29.810 --> 01:26:32.200 all was not yet made manifest, 01:26:32.200 --> 01:26:35.210 while as the first tabernacle was yet standing, 01:26:35.210 --> 01:26:38.690 which was a figure for the time then present, 01:26:38.690 --> 01:26:41.210 in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices 01:26:41.210 --> 01:26:45.170 that could not make him that did serve as perfect 01:26:45.170 --> 01:26:47.100 as pertained to consciousness, 01:26:47.100 --> 01:26:49.060 which stood only in the meats and drinks 01:26:49.060 --> 01:26:51.660 and devices of worship, carnal ordinance imposed on them 01:26:51.660 --> 01:26:53.870 until the time of Reformation. 01:26:53.870 --> 01:26:58.410 But, Christ, being come the high priest of good things to come 01:26:58.410 --> 01:27:00.600 by greater and more perfect tabernacle, 01:27:00.600 --> 01:27:04.470 not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building, 01:27:04.470 --> 01:27:06.220 neither by the blood of the goats or calves, 01:27:06.220 --> 01:27:10.530 but by his own blood, he entered once into the holy place, 01:27:10.530 --> 01:27:13.040 having obtained eternal redemption for us all. 01:27:13.040 --> 01:27:15.200 For if the blood of bulls and goats, 01:27:15.200 --> 01:27:17.550 and ashes and heifers sprinkled the unclean, 01:27:17.550 --> 01:27:19.750 sanctified and purified of the flesh, 01:27:19.750 --> 01:27:21.700 how much more shall the blood of Christ, 01:27:21.700 --> 01:27:24.450 who through the eternal spirit offered himself 01:27:24.450 --> 01:27:26.410 without spot to God, 01:27:26.410 --> 01:27:28.800 purer your conscience from the dead works 01:27:28.800 --> 01:27:31.480 to serve the living God. 01:27:31.480 --> 01:27:38.150 The religion and practices that Moses set up 01:27:38.150 --> 01:27:41.740 was to show what Christ would do. 01:27:41.740 --> 01:27:46.640 When Christ came, there was no need, 01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:50.800 there was no purpose to the sacrifices 01:27:50.800 --> 01:27:55.700 that the old priesthood did 01:27:55.700 --> 01:27:59.410 to show what Christ would do once for all. 01:27:59.410 --> 01:28:03.400 And that is why God removed the temple. 01:28:03.400 --> 01:28:05.500 Oh, there's a third temple coming. 01:28:05.500 --> 01:28:07.810 If it is, it's for the antichrist. 01:28:07.810 --> 01:28:10.280 And what's interesting to me, Christian, is this. 01:28:10.280 --> 01:28:12.940 You're like, "Well, we're waiting for the second coming, 01:28:12.940 --> 01:28:14.300 and they're just looking for the first." 01:28:14.300 --> 01:28:15.210 That's not true. 01:28:15.210 --> 01:28:17.320 We're looking for the antichrist to come, 01:28:17.320 --> 01:28:19.630 and the Jews are waiting for their messiah. 01:28:19.630 --> 01:28:23.850 And it's interesting because Jesus said to the Jews, 01:28:23.850 --> 01:28:27.210 "You serve your father, Satan." 01:28:27.210 --> 01:28:33.230 Christian, wake up. 01:28:33.230 --> 01:28:34.840 And here's the thing is, 01:28:34.840 --> 01:28:38.620 if honestly you believe the state of Israel 01:28:38.620 --> 01:28:40.900 is the end time prophecy at all, 01:28:40.900 --> 01:28:42.280 the only thing they can fulfill 01:28:42.280 --> 01:28:44.730 is to work with the antichrist. 01:28:44.730 --> 01:28:47.980 That is the only thing they could do to fulfill anything. 01:28:47.980 --> 01:28:50.650 Which means, what are you doing supporting them? 01:28:50.650 --> 01:28:51.800 But here's the thing, 01:28:51.800 --> 01:28:54.300 if it is the end times, 01:28:54.300 --> 01:28:56.090 if you truly believe that, 01:28:56.090 --> 01:28:59.600 then what is the great falling away that's predicted? 01:28:59.600 --> 01:29:02.940 I will say it is every so-called Christian 01:29:02.940 --> 01:29:06.910 putting Christ down and upholding the Jews. 01:29:06.910 --> 01:29:13.680 You are honoring Satan's children instead of Christ. 01:29:13.680 --> 01:29:15.000 'Cause Christ wouldn't have you 01:29:15.000 --> 01:29:17.340 just give your complete loyalty 01:29:17.340 --> 01:29:20.030 to a nation that is engaging in racism, 01:29:20.030 --> 01:29:23.130 genocide, and purposely pushing 01:29:23.130 --> 01:29:25.910 anti-Christ beliefs throughout the world. 01:29:25.910 --> 01:29:27.520 - Right. 01:29:27.520 --> 01:29:31.000 - Here's the thing, we read certain chronicles there. 01:29:31.000 --> 01:29:33.970 You have the king of Judah being wrong. 01:29:33.970 --> 01:29:36.930 You have the king of Israel being really wrong 01:29:36.930 --> 01:29:39.450 and God not supporting either one of them. 01:29:39.450 --> 01:29:42.440 Well, if we don't support them, we won't be blessed. 01:29:42.440 --> 01:29:47.300 That is not a biblical teaching. 01:29:47.300 --> 01:29:49.800 In Genesis three, verse 26, it says, 01:29:49.800 --> 01:29:52.230 "For ye are all children of God by..." 01:29:52.230 --> 01:29:54.110 Sorry, Galatians, I said Genesis. 01:29:54.110 --> 01:29:56.860 Galatians, apologize my dyslexia. 01:29:56.860 --> 01:29:59.370 Galatians three, "For ye are all children of God 01:29:59.370 --> 01:30:01.120 "by faith in Jesus Christ. 01:30:01.120 --> 01:30:03.880 "For as many of you that have been baptized into Christ 01:30:03.880 --> 01:30:07.460 "have put on Christ, there is neither Jew nor Greek. 01:30:07.460 --> 01:30:09.060 "There is neither bond nor free. 01:30:09.060 --> 01:30:11.130 "There is neither male nor female. 01:30:11.130 --> 01:30:13.970 "For ye are one in Christ Jesus. 01:30:13.970 --> 01:30:17.670 "And if ye be of Christ, then ye are Abraham's seed 01:30:17.670 --> 01:30:21.690 "and heirs according to the promised." 01:30:21.690 --> 01:30:26.090 Who gets the promises of Abraham? 01:30:26.090 --> 01:30:28.000 They're like, "Oh, if you don't bless them, 01:30:28.000 --> 01:30:29.420 "God won't bless you." 01:30:29.420 --> 01:30:31.350 Interesting, 'cause God doesn't say, 01:30:31.350 --> 01:30:34.170 "Bless Satan and I will bless you." 01:30:34.170 --> 01:30:38.590 He says, "Faithful Christians, 01:30:38.590 --> 01:30:41.840 "those that have put their trust in Christ, 01:30:41.840 --> 01:30:47.010 "those saved people are the heirs of Abraham." 01:30:47.010 --> 01:30:52.840 You know how much world drama, trouble, wars, 01:30:52.840 --> 01:30:55.280 how much pain and suffering this world would go away 01:30:55.280 --> 01:30:59.840 if you just read your Bible and turned off Fox News? 01:30:59.840 --> 01:31:01.860 Do you know how much, like, 01:31:01.860 --> 01:31:06.950 the Middle East would be better in every single way 01:31:06.950 --> 01:31:10.560 if you do not support that wicked nation? 01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:13.150 Now, whether you believe it was purposeful 01:31:13.150 --> 01:31:15.570 or it was just a consequence, 01:31:15.570 --> 01:31:17.770 do you know what people have truly been eradicated 01:31:17.770 --> 01:31:20.360 from the Middle East? 01:31:20.360 --> 01:31:23.000 Anyone who calls himself Christian. 01:31:23.000 --> 01:31:24.260 Now, whether or not you believe 01:31:24.260 --> 01:31:26.910 that is a purposefully driven thing by Israel 01:31:26.910 --> 01:31:29.080 or it was a consequence, I don't care. 01:31:29.080 --> 01:31:30.240 But you know what? 01:31:30.240 --> 01:31:33.790 Lebanon, that was the Christian state in the Middle East. 01:31:33.790 --> 01:31:35.580 Not no more. 01:31:35.580 --> 01:31:40.200 The Iraqi population of Christians they had, gone. 01:31:40.200 --> 01:31:43.300 Syria, gone. 01:31:43.300 --> 01:31:47.570 Palestine, they're doing their best to wipe them out now. 01:31:47.570 --> 01:31:55.310 Egypt, massively decreased. 01:31:55.310 --> 01:31:58.240 If you are a Christian first, 01:31:58.240 --> 01:31:59.910 you would view this nation 01:31:59.910 --> 01:32:03.980 as one of the greatest enemies to you. 01:32:03.980 --> 01:32:06.140 Their actions throughout the world 01:32:06.140 --> 01:32:11.550 has demonized, threatened, and harmed. 01:32:11.550 --> 01:32:13.080 Also called Christians. 01:32:13.080 --> 01:32:14.340 And I understand many of these people 01:32:14.340 --> 01:32:15.840 we may not agree are saved, 01:32:15.840 --> 01:32:18.920 but at least they upheld Christ in some way. 01:32:18.920 --> 01:32:22.220 Which is far better than any nation 01:32:22.220 --> 01:32:27.060 ran by self-proclaimed Jews. 01:32:27.060 --> 01:32:32.700 So, John 4, John 4 and verse 21, it says, 01:32:32.700 --> 01:32:35.790 "Jesus said unto her, 'Woman, believe me, 01:32:35.790 --> 01:32:38.560 "'the hour cometh when she shall neither in this mountain 01:32:38.560 --> 01:32:40.920 "'nor yet a Jerusalem worship the Father.'" 01:32:40.920 --> 01:32:43.190 And this is Jesus talking to the Samaritan woman. 01:32:43.190 --> 01:32:45.050 "'Ye worship ye know not what, 01:32:45.050 --> 01:32:48.390 "'we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. 01:32:48.390 --> 01:32:50.560 "'But the hour cometh, and now is, 01:32:50.560 --> 01:32:53.640 "'when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit 01:32:53.640 --> 01:32:56.910 "'and in truth, for the Father seeketh such that worship him. 01:32:56.910 --> 01:33:01.780 "'And God is a spirit, and they shall worship him, 01:33:01.780 --> 01:33:05.760 "'worship him, must worship him, in spirit and truth.'" 01:33:05.760 --> 01:33:07.850 Literally this verse, when Jesus is talking, 01:33:07.850 --> 01:33:10.020 it's like, hey, right now, yeah, 01:33:10.020 --> 01:33:12.440 worshiping in Jerusalem is, 'cause he asked the question, 01:33:12.440 --> 01:33:14.690 where's, you know, we say we worship over here, 01:33:14.690 --> 01:33:16.400 the Jews say you worship over here. 01:33:16.400 --> 01:33:18.500 He says, yeah, salvation is with the Jews, why? 01:33:18.500 --> 01:33:23.910 Jesus came from the Judea, he came from a lineage of Jews. 01:33:23.910 --> 01:33:27.380 That's where that whole, no need of the nation after that, 01:33:27.380 --> 01:33:29.000 that fulfilled all prophecy. 01:33:29.000 --> 01:33:33.240 But what he is saying here is, after Christ, 01:33:33.240 --> 01:33:34.500 after the New Testament, 01:33:34.500 --> 01:33:37.580 do you need to go to Jerusalem for salvation? 01:33:37.580 --> 01:33:39.520 You absolutely do not. 01:33:39.520 --> 01:33:43.490 Jesus is literally telling a Gentile at this time, 01:33:43.490 --> 01:33:45.740 yeah, you should have gone there, but guess what? 01:33:45.740 --> 01:33:48.240 A time coming is now is. 01:33:48.240 --> 01:33:50.890 You don't need to go to Jerusalem. 01:33:50.890 --> 01:33:53.910 Oh, we got to do our pilgrimage to the Holy Land. 01:33:53.910 --> 01:33:56.150 No, pagan, you don't. 01:33:56.150 --> 01:33:57.720 You know, God is the spirit 01:33:57.720 --> 01:33:59.270 and he is the king of the whole world. 01:33:59.270 --> 01:34:02.090 I'm in his footstool, I could be anywhere here 01:34:02.090 --> 01:34:05.620 and worship God and be saved where I am at. 01:34:05.620 --> 01:34:09.550 I do not need to go to some dusty bowl 01:34:09.550 --> 01:34:14.050 that maybe had something interesting happen millennia ago 01:34:14.050 --> 01:34:17.640 with people in genealogies that don't even exist anymore, 01:34:17.640 --> 01:34:19.620 lost in the time. 01:34:19.620 --> 01:34:21.150 Guess what? 01:34:21.150 --> 01:34:23.410 Jesus said, the time now is 01:34:23.410 --> 01:34:26.010 that you do not need to go to Jerusalem. 01:34:26.010 --> 01:34:28.360 So you're like, oh, well, we just got to support. 01:34:28.360 --> 01:34:29.380 No, you don't. 01:34:29.380 --> 01:34:30.430 Guess what? 01:34:30.430 --> 01:34:32.850 Here's my thing. 01:34:32.850 --> 01:34:35.330 People are like, well, we need an ally over there 01:34:35.330 --> 01:34:36.670 'cause you know, all of the Islamics, 01:34:36.670 --> 01:34:37.730 they're really anti-American. 01:34:37.730 --> 01:34:39.560 You know why they're anti-American? 01:34:39.560 --> 01:34:42.300 Because of Israel. 01:34:42.300 --> 01:34:43.730 Do you know, before Israel, 01:34:43.730 --> 01:34:47.850 we had exactly zero enemies in the Middle East. 01:34:47.850 --> 01:34:50.550 As an American, you could walk through the Middle East 01:34:50.550 --> 01:34:51.960 and they were excited to see you 01:34:51.960 --> 01:34:54.890 'cause it was like, wow, it's like a celebrity. 01:34:54.890 --> 01:34:56.710 It's kind of like the way you felt 01:34:56.710 --> 01:34:57.820 like people would describe 01:34:57.820 --> 01:34:59.560 when they go through African countries. 01:34:59.560 --> 01:35:02.110 They're like, whoa, cool, a foreigner. 01:35:02.110 --> 01:35:04.010 Why are they so anti? 01:35:04.010 --> 01:35:08.030 And here's the thing is, in the '80s, that was still true. 01:35:08.030 --> 01:35:13.470 Osama Bin Laden, yay America! 01:35:13.470 --> 01:35:18.130 Osama, we became great Satan. 01:35:18.130 --> 01:35:21.850 Maybe 'cause we've blown up half of their freaking countries, 01:35:21.850 --> 01:35:23.630 we have murdered their civilians, 01:35:23.630 --> 01:35:27.120 and for no reason that I can think logically or factually, 01:35:27.120 --> 01:35:31.070 we've helped the genocide in Palestine. 01:35:31.070 --> 01:35:34.080 Boy, has that helped spread the word of God? 01:35:34.080 --> 01:35:36.890 Are they more or less receptive to the gospel 01:35:36.890 --> 01:35:38.350 now that we've engaged 01:35:38.350 --> 01:35:43.640 with the satanically driven genocide of the Middle East? 01:35:43.640 --> 01:35:45.360 Yeah, the word of God is not going through. 01:35:45.360 --> 01:35:48.690 And let me tell you this, if you're a Christian first, 01:35:48.690 --> 01:35:50.670 or here's the thing is, if you're American, 01:35:50.670 --> 01:35:52.460 how about just your money? 01:35:52.460 --> 01:35:54.890 Like if that stops the war, you'd just do that, I guess. 01:35:54.890 --> 01:35:57.000 But as a Christian, you can't support this. 01:35:57.000 --> 01:36:00.380 And guess what, it has harmed the work of Christ. 01:36:00.380 --> 01:36:02.810 It has removed people that even identify as Christian 01:36:02.810 --> 01:36:05.600 from those areas, and it has made it harder 01:36:05.600 --> 01:36:07.980 for Christians around the world, because guess what? 01:36:07.980 --> 01:36:09.810 As Americans, we're like, wow, 01:36:09.810 --> 01:36:12.610 they're literally helped kill people. 01:36:12.610 --> 01:36:15.600 Hey, if you don't know, the Taliban literally offered 01:36:15.600 --> 01:36:18.470 to give us Osama bin Laden without a war, 01:36:18.470 --> 01:36:21.400 but they felt the American people were so angry 01:36:21.400 --> 01:36:27.360 we had to go to war, 'cause Islamists would work with us. 01:36:27.360 --> 01:36:29.600 That doesn't fulfill someone else's desire 01:36:29.600 --> 01:36:33.770 for the disabling of every nation around them. 01:36:33.770 --> 01:36:37.350 So you can't tell me this ally has helped us 01:36:37.350 --> 01:36:40.160 with the work of Christ. 01:36:40.160 --> 01:36:43.780 First, John four and verse three it says, 01:36:43.780 --> 01:36:45.980 "And every spirit that confesses not Jesus Christ 01:36:45.980 --> 01:36:47.460 "has come in the flesh, is not a God. 01:36:47.460 --> 01:36:48.520 "This is the spirit of Antichrist. 01:36:48.520 --> 01:36:50.700 "Wherever ye have heard, it should come, 01:36:50.700 --> 01:36:55.130 "even now he is already in the world." 01:36:55.130 --> 01:36:57.520 And second, John one and seven says, 01:36:57.520 --> 01:36:59.100 "For many deceivers are into the world 01:36:59.100 --> 01:37:01.660 "who confesses not Jesus is the Christ, 01:37:01.660 --> 01:37:07.180 "has come in the flesh, and the deceiver is of Antichrist." 01:37:07.180 --> 01:37:11.140 The whole purpose of this sermon is to let you know, 01:37:11.140 --> 01:37:13.400 no matter what your political view is, 01:37:13.400 --> 01:37:17.430 please don't tell me Israel is our greatest ally. 01:37:17.430 --> 01:37:19.740 I would hide in trouble. 01:37:19.740 --> 01:37:23.550 Now, you could say the money we send to them, 01:37:23.550 --> 01:37:25.290 we are their greatest ally. 01:37:25.290 --> 01:37:27.260 That's without question. 01:37:27.260 --> 01:37:29.990 Even Russia, who is an unconditional ally, 01:37:29.990 --> 01:37:32.310 they're kind of losing a lot of money currently, 01:37:32.310 --> 01:37:35.360 so they can't give them billions and billions of dollars. 01:37:35.360 --> 01:37:37.370 They help set up, and Putin says 01:37:37.370 --> 01:37:39.720 they're basically a colony of Russia. 01:37:39.720 --> 01:37:42.810 All like, I don't remember the percentage, 01:37:42.810 --> 01:37:46.370 but a huge percentage of Israel is a dual citizen of Russia. 01:37:46.370 --> 01:37:50.460 That's been true since the foundation. 01:37:50.460 --> 01:37:55.500 But I'm just saying, we need to not be unequally yoked 01:37:55.500 --> 01:37:56.690 with the unbelievers. 01:37:56.690 --> 01:37:59.760 That is what God commanded of us. 01:37:59.760 --> 01:38:02.670 And if you would, just go ahead and turn to Romans 9, 01:38:02.670 --> 01:38:06.970 Romans 9, that'll be the last place I have you turn. 01:38:06.970 --> 01:38:10.940 All I'm saying is this, is a nation 01:38:10.940 --> 01:38:14.910 that has never done us good, that does not support us, 01:38:14.910 --> 01:38:19.420 that cost us billions upon billions upon billions, 01:38:19.420 --> 01:38:24.450 we have literally lost thousands of lives 01:38:24.450 --> 01:38:27.150 fighting the extended war to make sure 01:38:27.150 --> 01:38:30.640 that there is no legitimate enemy on the Israel's border 01:38:30.640 --> 01:38:33.000 'cause they've unstabilized the entire region. 01:38:33.000 --> 01:38:34.270 And let me explain that. 01:38:34.270 --> 01:38:37.310 Israel didn't stabilize themselves in an unstable region. 01:38:37.310 --> 01:38:43.240 The region, if you look at Iraq, Syria, even Jerusalem, 01:38:43.240 --> 01:38:47.900 and basically the 50s, 01:38:47.900 --> 01:38:50.140 like you basically see New York. 01:38:50.140 --> 01:38:52.410 You see Tehran, which is Iran. 01:38:52.410 --> 01:38:54.670 You go into Afghanistan. 01:38:54.670 --> 01:38:56.880 You just see 1950 town. 01:38:56.880 --> 01:38:59.390 They weren't quite as infrastructure up, 01:38:59.390 --> 01:39:00.990 but they were developing. 01:39:00.990 --> 01:39:03.290 Weirdly, the entire Middle East 01:39:03.290 --> 01:39:07.310 is reverted through years of war. 01:39:07.310 --> 01:39:10.700 Like I said, at the Taliban stronghold, 01:39:10.700 --> 01:39:13.070 which is Southern Afghanistan, where I was, 01:39:13.070 --> 01:39:15.980 do you know it used to be called Little America? 01:39:15.980 --> 01:39:19.230 We spent years building one of the largest dams 01:39:19.230 --> 01:39:21.030 in Central Asia. 01:39:21.030 --> 01:39:24.430 You know what America does 'cause we're great allies? 01:39:24.430 --> 01:39:26.650 We blew it up. 01:39:26.650 --> 01:39:30.230 When asked why, 'cause believe it or not, 01:39:30.230 --> 01:39:33.230 a dam is not really a terrorist weapon. 01:39:33.230 --> 01:39:34.870 They're not gonna take their dam 01:39:34.870 --> 01:39:38.880 and ram it into one of our buildings if you don't know. 01:39:38.880 --> 01:39:44.220 There was no sense, there wasn't a, we just, we could. 01:39:44.220 --> 01:39:46.840 We're, wow, well we got big bombs. 01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:49.040 We blew up the dam we built. 01:39:49.040 --> 01:39:53.100 This did not make us popular. 01:39:53.100 --> 01:39:55.620 All I'm saying is, you guys, you've heard some crazy things 01:39:55.620 --> 01:39:58.450 'cause hey, many people in Afghanistan were allies. 01:39:58.450 --> 01:40:01.790 Al-Qaeda was our ally, Saddam Hussein was our ally. 01:40:01.790 --> 01:40:03.920 You can go through history and you can find, 01:40:03.920 --> 01:40:05.930 you probably don't wanna be a U.S. ally 01:40:05.930 --> 01:40:08.240 'cause we will betray you quick. 01:40:08.240 --> 01:40:10.400 And I think we're about to do that to Taiwan 01:40:10.400 --> 01:40:12.730 within your life, like we have fought, 01:40:12.730 --> 01:40:14.630 we have developed and trained with Taiwan forever 01:40:14.630 --> 01:40:17.260 and I'm pretty sure we're about to sacrifice them. 01:40:17.260 --> 01:40:18.680 Whether or not you believe in, 01:40:18.680 --> 01:40:21.740 whether or not that's useful, all I'm saying is this, 01:40:21.740 --> 01:40:23.830 who are our allies? 01:40:23.830 --> 01:40:25.850 And please don't tell me it is Israel. 01:40:25.850 --> 01:40:27.690 In Romans 9 verse 24, it says, 01:40:27.690 --> 01:40:29.400 "Even us and who they have called, 01:40:29.400 --> 01:40:33.210 not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles. 01:40:33.210 --> 01:40:36.800 As he has said also, Osee, I will call them my people, 01:40:36.800 --> 01:40:40.520 which were not my people, and her beloved, 01:40:40.520 --> 01:40:42.350 which were not beloved. 01:40:42.350 --> 01:40:44.190 And it shall come to pass that in the place 01:40:44.190 --> 01:40:48.500 where it was said unto them, ye are not my people, 01:40:48.500 --> 01:40:52.140 there shall they be called the children of the living God. 01:40:52.140 --> 01:40:54.470 Isaiah also cried concerning Israel, 01:40:54.470 --> 01:40:55.810 through the numbers of the children of Israel 01:40:55.810 --> 01:40:58.090 and the sand of the sea and the remnant shall be saved, 01:40:58.090 --> 01:41:01.680 for he will finish the work and cut short the righteous, 01:41:01.680 --> 01:41:04.320 because a short work the Lord maketh the earth. 01:41:04.320 --> 01:41:06.850 And as Isaiah said before, except the Lord of Sabbath 01:41:06.850 --> 01:41:10.710 had left us a seed, we had been of sodom 01:41:10.710 --> 01:41:12.900 and been made like Gomorrah. 01:41:12.900 --> 01:41:14.580 What shall we say then? 01:41:14.580 --> 01:41:16.980 The Gentiles which follow not after righteousness 01:41:16.980 --> 01:41:18.650 have attained righteousness even unto the righteous, 01:41:18.650 --> 01:41:20.630 which is of faith, but Israel, 01:41:20.630 --> 01:41:22.170 of which is after the law of righteousness, 01:41:22.170 --> 01:41:23.880 not attained the law of righteousness. 01:41:23.880 --> 01:41:26.820 Wherefore, because they sought not it by faith, 01:41:26.820 --> 01:41:29.780 but as were by works of law, 01:41:29.780 --> 01:41:33.850 for their stumble at the stumbling stone. 01:41:33.850 --> 01:41:36.730 As it was written, behold, I lay at Zion, 01:41:36.730 --> 01:41:38.390 a stumbling block of the rock of the fence. 01:41:38.390 --> 01:41:40.940 Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 01:41:40.940 --> 01:41:42.660 This whole part is literally talking. 01:41:42.660 --> 01:41:45.460 This is where God says, the people of God 01:41:45.460 --> 01:41:47.030 in the New Testament will be a people 01:41:47.030 --> 01:41:48.930 that did not exist before. 01:41:48.930 --> 01:41:50.710 And I know I've covered this multiple times. 01:41:50.710 --> 01:41:54.820 If you believe, well, we gotta honor the people of God, 01:41:54.820 --> 01:41:56.340 the nation of God. 01:41:56.340 --> 01:41:58.460 Well, as long as they meet a couple of checkpoints. 01:41:58.460 --> 01:42:01.100 One, they honor the Son of God, 01:42:01.100 --> 01:42:06.550 and the people of God did not exist before Christ's death. 01:42:06.550 --> 01:42:11.020 So you're like, well, you know, the Jews existed before. 01:42:11.020 --> 01:42:13.420 And I'm not saying the Jews now are the same people then, 01:42:13.420 --> 01:42:15.540 but if that's the people you think are the children of God, 01:42:15.540 --> 01:42:17.330 you are violating scripture. 01:42:17.330 --> 01:42:18.840 'Cause God says, I'm gonna make a people 01:42:18.840 --> 01:42:20.620 that were not a people before, 01:42:20.620 --> 01:42:24.170 of Gentiles and of Jews, 01:42:24.170 --> 01:42:26.150 of the faithful is what's going through. 01:42:26.150 --> 01:42:27.600 And it says it was literally prophesied 01:42:27.600 --> 01:42:28.900 through multiple people. 01:42:28.900 --> 01:42:31.200 And it's literally saying a remnant. 01:42:31.200 --> 01:42:34.030 People always go, well, there's always gonna be a remnant. 01:42:34.030 --> 01:42:36.950 The remnant was those that had faith on Christ. 01:42:36.950 --> 01:42:38.170 He went to Israel. 01:42:38.170 --> 01:42:41.340 He did the majority of his ministry in Israel 01:42:41.340 --> 01:42:45.810 to reach the remnant. 01:42:45.810 --> 01:42:49.450 The lost tribe was Israel. 01:42:49.450 --> 01:42:51.060 It was Judah at the time. 01:42:51.060 --> 01:42:55.170 People were like, I won't get into that. 01:42:55.170 --> 01:42:58.040 Israel is a wonderful marketing campaign. 01:42:58.040 --> 01:43:00.030 My wife's sister went to Israel, 01:43:00.030 --> 01:43:04.060 and they literally said, you know, in the '80s, 01:43:04.060 --> 01:43:06.730 we had like 500 refugees, I'm sorry, 01:43:06.730 --> 01:43:09.080 during the '70s, during the Vietnam War. 01:43:09.080 --> 01:43:10.730 We had 500 refugees, 01:43:10.730 --> 01:43:14.040 Vietnam people come, you know, and immigrate to Israel. 01:43:14.040 --> 01:43:18.200 You know, maybe they were the lost tribe of Israel. 01:43:18.200 --> 01:43:20.300 This is the foundation of her sister's faith. 01:43:20.300 --> 01:43:22.900 Like we were the, you know, actually Vietnamese were, 01:43:22.900 --> 01:43:24.840 you know, actually the children of Israel. 01:43:24.840 --> 01:43:26.060 Now here's the thing is, 01:43:26.060 --> 01:43:28.590 do you know they tell everyone that? 01:43:28.590 --> 01:43:30.700 It doesn't matter where you're from. 01:43:30.700 --> 01:43:33.620 Like the King of England actually think 01:43:33.620 --> 01:43:36.690 that English people was the lost tribe. 01:43:36.690 --> 01:43:39.860 That like this whole matter, it's throughout the world. 01:43:39.860 --> 01:43:41.160 It's crazy that people believe this, 01:43:41.160 --> 01:43:43.990 but that's the thing here, sorry. 01:43:43.990 --> 01:43:46.190 But basically this is people are always looking like, 01:43:46.190 --> 01:43:47.470 "Oh, how am I connected to Israel?" 01:43:47.470 --> 01:43:48.940 Let me tell you how you're connected. 01:43:48.940 --> 01:43:50.730 The seed that came from Israel, 01:43:50.730 --> 01:43:52.920 'cause it literally says in what I just read, 01:43:52.920 --> 01:43:56.860 the only reason God did not nuke that nation 01:43:56.860 --> 01:43:58.290 like he did Sodom and Gomorrah 01:43:58.290 --> 01:44:00.520 for hundreds and hundreds of years 01:44:00.520 --> 01:44:04.050 was because his promise that Messiah would come. 01:44:04.050 --> 01:44:06.920 The only reason he did not punish them 01:44:06.920 --> 01:44:08.450 like Sodom and Gomorrah 01:44:08.450 --> 01:44:11.520 is because he had to fulfill his word, 01:44:11.520 --> 01:44:13.520 which was Jesus. 01:44:13.520 --> 01:44:16.130 Jesus came from there and after that, 01:44:16.130 --> 01:44:18.490 there is no need of that nation. 01:44:18.490 --> 01:44:22.310 And that is why the nation has not existed 01:44:22.310 --> 01:44:24.380 for a thousand years. 01:44:24.380 --> 01:44:25.840 Now, if you're talking about Israel, 01:44:25.840 --> 01:44:26.730 multiple thousand, 01:44:26.730 --> 01:44:30.140 we're like 2,500 years it has not existed. 01:44:30.140 --> 01:44:33.800 Judah, you're talking almost 2,000 years 01:44:33.800 --> 01:44:35.100 it has not existed. 01:44:35.100 --> 01:44:36.800 God does not need it. 01:44:36.800 --> 01:44:38.060 Well, you know, they're just, you know, 01:44:38.060 --> 01:44:39.670 just like when they went to Babylon. 01:44:39.670 --> 01:44:42.750 How many years were they in Babylon? 01:44:42.750 --> 01:44:45.640 A little less than a couple thousand. 01:44:45.640 --> 01:44:47.790 Notice that God never takes 01:44:47.790 --> 01:44:50.320 a couple thousand year break, all right? 01:44:50.320 --> 01:44:52.210 God, Jesus is the head of church. 01:44:52.210 --> 01:44:54.080 God is now, Messiah is here. 01:44:54.080 --> 01:44:56.580 Understand this, is the people of Christ. 01:44:56.580 --> 01:44:59.640 The only reason Judah at the time had not been destroyed 01:44:59.640 --> 01:45:00.870 was because Jesus had to come 01:45:00.870 --> 01:45:03.450 and let us all know if you know anything about history, 01:45:03.450 --> 01:45:07.330 after Jesus came, God removed the nation. 01:45:07.330 --> 01:45:11.570 Do not tell me the people that call themselves Jews 01:45:11.570 --> 01:45:13.200 are our greatest allies. 01:45:13.200 --> 01:45:16.090 God literally calls them the synagogue of Satan. 01:45:16.090 --> 01:45:18.890 That nation has never supported us 01:45:18.890 --> 01:45:22.570 in spiritual or in physical. 01:45:22.570 --> 01:45:25.170 They have never shown their troops to us. 01:45:25.170 --> 01:45:26.640 Our troops die for them. 01:45:26.640 --> 01:45:28.180 They have never supported us troops. 01:45:28.180 --> 01:45:29.810 We send billions so they can conduct 01:45:29.810 --> 01:45:34.530 their illegal wicked wars of genocidal ethnic cleansing. 01:45:34.530 --> 01:45:36.660 They do not support us. 01:45:36.660 --> 01:45:38.940 They do not care for our politics. 01:45:38.940 --> 01:45:40.170 They do not like us. 01:45:40.170 --> 01:45:42.070 They wish us to be more socialized. 01:45:42.070 --> 01:45:45.620 That's why their due citizenships are always support. 01:45:45.620 --> 01:45:48.920 I, you ever heard of Bernie Sanders? 01:45:48.920 --> 01:45:50.930 Pretty sure he has a dual citizenship 01:45:50.930 --> 01:45:54.010 and it isn't to Norway. 01:45:54.010 --> 01:45:59.180 And he is our biggest person pushing socialism in here 01:45:59.180 --> 01:46:01.200 because that's what the Gentiles should have 01:46:01.200 --> 01:46:02.140 as far as they're concerned. 01:46:02.140 --> 01:46:03.840 But that's a whole nother sermon. 01:46:03.840 --> 01:46:08.370 All I'm saying is this, our greatest ally, worldly, 01:46:08.370 --> 01:46:13.590 you're gonna have to pick Korea, England, Australia, 01:46:13.590 --> 01:46:15.690 but how about you just pick Christ 01:46:15.690 --> 01:46:17.850 and you become Christian before you're American. 01:46:17.850 --> 01:46:19.390 And no matter what our politics does, 01:46:19.390 --> 01:46:21.000 no matter what our media says, 01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:25.690 no matter what books or commentaries that, you know, 01:46:25.690 --> 01:46:30.350 perhaps dual citizen members with Israel publish, 01:46:30.350 --> 01:46:31.840 why don't you just go back to the Bible and go, 01:46:31.840 --> 01:46:33.820 wow, I can't support them 01:46:33.820 --> 01:46:35.480 because they're not in the will of God. 01:46:35.480 --> 01:46:37.450 I can't support them because they do not call 01:46:37.450 --> 01:46:38.400 in the name of Christ. 01:46:38.400 --> 01:46:41.670 I cannot support them because killing women 01:46:41.670 --> 01:46:45.080 and children in hospitals is not something I can support. 01:46:45.080 --> 01:46:50.130 Raping your captives and then being justified by the state. 01:46:50.130 --> 01:46:52.140 And let me tell you, it's not just some people, 01:46:52.140 --> 01:46:54.790 the state protects them. 01:46:54.790 --> 01:46:58.930 Nothing about that wicked, illegitimate country 01:46:58.930 --> 01:47:02.220 in the Middle East founded on lies, built on nonsense, 01:47:02.220 --> 01:47:08.060 and has been the worst ally I think the US has ever had. 01:47:08.060 --> 01:47:09.230 With that, let's pray. 01:47:09.230 --> 01:47:10.490 Heavenly Father, thank you so much today. 01:47:10.490 --> 01:47:11.310 Thank you for this word. 01:47:11.310 --> 01:47:13.550 I just hope that any of this that I find useful, 01:47:13.550 --> 01:47:16.430 'cause Lord, how we can talk about politics 01:47:16.430 --> 01:47:18.530 and time and religion is so many churches, 01:47:18.530 --> 01:47:20.320 probably this week, got up and said, 01:47:20.320 --> 01:47:22.630 "We've got to support our greatest ally." 01:47:22.630 --> 01:47:25.210 And unfortunately, they did not mean you. 01:47:25.210 --> 01:47:27.400 They did not mean Christians around the world. 01:47:27.400 --> 01:47:29.030 And they probably meant someone 01:47:29.030 --> 01:47:31.810 that only wishes our destruction. 01:47:31.810 --> 01:47:40.910 In Jesus' name, amen. 01:47:40.910 --> 01:47:51.810 Turn to page number 433. 01:47:51.810 --> 01:48:00.940 Page number 433, away in a manger. 01:48:00.940 --> 01:49:23.130 Page number 433. 01:49:23.130 --> 01:49:43.940 Let's sing everybody for the range, 01:49:43.940 --> 01:49:45.210 please close this in order of prayer.
