- 0:22Speaker 2: red Heifers. We're talking about the Abraham Accords and things
- 0:25Speaker 2: coming out of South of Araba, which is pretty fascinating.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Of course, the potential war with Iran and what's happening there.
- 0:34Speaker 2: We also see that the UN is discussing taxation on
- 0:38Speaker 2: citizens and trying to raise money. We know the digital currency.
- 0:42Speaker 2: We got a topic discuss about Europeans the Union's plan
- 0:47Speaker 2: for digital currency, as well as our good friend Elon
- 0:50Speaker 2: Musk so to speak, seeking to be having a military
- 0:55Speaker 2: connection and so. But before we do, I want to

- 2:04Speaker 2: to the events page, scrawl the way down and that
- 2:06Speaker 2: is also in October, and you can get all the
- 2:09Speaker 2: information about that upcoming trip. Well, well, the first thing
- 2:14Speaker 2: you want to talk about, Gary, here we are is
- 2:17Speaker 2: the red heifers, and we've talked a lot about that.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Of course I've written a book about it, but we
- 2:24Speaker 2: love getting letters.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Well, first I should say I've read the book and
- 2:30Speaker 1: that's the truth. And by the way, it's very informative,
- 2:35Speaker 1: but it's not so complex that it leaves you behind.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Let me tell you this. It's a good read. And
- 2:41Speaker 1: the subject and Mando and I have talked about this
- 2:45Speaker 1: a lot. The subject is very current. Ten to fifteen
- 2:49Speaker 1: years ago, red heifer. You know, things were bubbling around
- 2:52Speaker 1: a little bit, but today the bubble has come to
- 2:56Speaker 1: a boil when it comes to the red heifer. You
- 2:58Speaker 1: could even call it a starter, right.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Yes, yes, we uh, we often say that, you know,
- 3:05Speaker 2: Gary and I we get a lot of letters from people.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Some we enjoy, some we don't, just to be honest,
- 3:11Speaker 2: and uh, we got a letter this week, or Gary did,
- 3:14Speaker 2: which we thought was it was interesting and again you know.
- 3:18Speaker 1: You know, it was flattering for me. It says it
- 3:20Speaker 1: says uh uh doctor Tierman. By the way that you know,
- 3:26Speaker 1: thanks for the respect. Would you please, I hate to
- 3:30Speaker 1: read this, would you read it? Please teach Mondo the
- 3:34Speaker 1: difference between a cow and a heifer. Last week he
- 3:39Speaker 1: kept calling the red heifer a cow, not once or twice,
- 3:44Speaker 1: but over and over and over. It was disgusting. And uh,
- 3:48Speaker 1: it is signed. And I thought that was a very
- 3:51Speaker 1: very good discussion starter, and so did you.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Well, I thought, man, you know, to have somebody get
- 3:57Speaker 2: worked up so much to call my descriptions red heifer,
- 4:04Speaker 2: red cow, and to go back and forth disgusting, They're
- 4:08Speaker 2: pretty pretty fired up in that letter that you got
- 4:11Speaker 2: took the time to, yeah, emotional, even to write and
- 4:13Speaker 2: send it.
- 4:13Speaker 1: Now, why would you get emotional? And this is your
- 4:16Speaker 1: cue to have a good answer, Why would you get
- 4:19Speaker 1: emotional about the difference between cow and heifer? There is
- 4:24Speaker 1: a distinction, and I think we need to clarify that.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Yes, I think, I hope you know that obviously, sister
- 4:31Speaker 2: in Christ. I'm sure her motives are positive, Love's truth.
- 4:35Speaker 2: And was frustrated at my using those terms. Now I
- 4:40Speaker 2: can tell you why I use those terms, because it's
- 4:44Speaker 2: no doubt in modern English and even modern Ranching, Okay,
- 4:51Speaker 2: there is a distinction between a heifer and a cow
- 4:53Speaker 2: and a bowl and everything else. The reason why I
- 4:56Speaker 2: often will switch back and forth is because I'm stuck
- 5:01Speaker 2: in the Hebrew. The Hebrew doesn't make a distinction about that.
- 5:07Speaker 2: There there there is an egglove, which is a calf,
- 5:10Speaker 2: and there is a parah, which is a again a
- 5:13Speaker 2: female cow. Well, I can't even say cow because I'm
- 5:16Speaker 2: gonna be in trouble again. But in the Bible, it
- 5:19Speaker 2: doesn't make that distinction that we have again in our
- 5:21Speaker 2: modern language now today, a heifer is a female bovine
- 5:27Speaker 2: I'll use that word, a female bovine that has never
- 5:30Speaker 2: been impregnated, where a cow is a bovine that a
- 5:33Speaker 2: female bovine that has been has has had a calf.
- 5:37Speaker 2: And so of course in the Bible, I think the
- 5:40Speaker 2: technical meaning not so much the word. The meaning is
- 5:46Speaker 2: it's it's one that has never been impregnated. So technically
- 5:50Speaker 2: a heifer is the most accurate. But what you see.
- 5:52Speaker 2: The reason why I say that is because if you
- 5:54Speaker 2: talk to the rabbis today and in the language, in
- 5:58Speaker 2: any sort of English translation, which again you see this
- 6:01Speaker 2: in the mission on the Talmut, which is why my
- 6:04Speaker 2: brain is this way, they say five cows, they'll say
- 6:06Speaker 2: red cows. Red cow's red cows. They're not necessarily they
- 6:10Speaker 2: don't they're not speaking in modern English taxonomy by ranchers.
- 6:14Speaker 1: But there is a distinction.
- 6:15Speaker 2: There is a distinction, yeh.
- 6:16Speaker 1: And I think what we're talking about here is a
- 6:18Speaker 1: young cow. It has not given milk, has not given birth,
- 6:24Speaker 1: and it's commonly spoken of as a heifer. And the
- 6:29Speaker 1: next question is why red. And my take on this
- 6:33Speaker 1: has always been that the red heifer is very, very
- 6:38Speaker 1: easy to inspect in terms of hair color and configuration,
- 6:45Speaker 1: so you can you can check out this red heifer,
- 6:48Speaker 1: and once you do that, you've set the standard. And
- 6:52Speaker 1: I think that's why it's a red heifer.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's it's it's fascinating to me that again,
- 6:58Speaker 2: you know, but appreciate the letter. I'll try to do
- 7:00Speaker 2: better using the word heifer. I got to get out
- 7:04Speaker 2: of the rabbinic language. But you know, on this note,
- 7:08Speaker 2: it does provide an opportunity to discuss briefly the update
- 7:13Speaker 2: on the red heifers in that we know going back
- 7:16Speaker 2: to September of twenty twenty two, five red heifers were
- 7:22Speaker 2: brought over to the Land of Israel. And of that
- 7:26Speaker 2: when if you talk to Byron Stinson, who was the
- 7:29Speaker 2: main American contact, he has a house in Bethlehem. He
- 7:34Speaker 2: also has he lives in Texas, so he was the
- 7:38Speaker 2: one primarily responsible with the organization Bonet Israel to bring
- 7:42Speaker 2: these cows over. And I just last month I had
- 7:46Speaker 2: an opportunity to spend a day with him at a
- 7:49Speaker 2: biblical museum, and as we talked, he said, he said,
- 7:53Speaker 2: he's he's very clear that there's still two red heifers
- 7:58Speaker 2: that are preliminarily qualified. Now again you can't have full
- 8:03Speaker 2: of qualification until really the moment before you have the ceremony.
- 8:07Speaker 2: But he says, now, based on everything he sees, these
- 8:10Speaker 2: the cows are up in Shiloh, Uh we're at a
- 8:13Speaker 2: visitor center there, and so he's been pretty strong that
- 8:15Speaker 2: they're still too qualified. Well, subsequent to that, just about
- 8:18Speaker 2: two weeks ago, three weeks ago, Rabbi Ral, who was
- 8:22Speaker 2: with the Temple Institute, he was interviewed in a Hebrew
- 8:25Speaker 2: only conversation where he said, we're not sure, we're certainly
- 8:31Speaker 2: I mean, the quote was, we are presently unsure whether
- 8:34Speaker 2: we have any qualified red heifer's, which again was kind
- 8:36Speaker 2: of contradictory to what many others have been saying. So
- 8:41Speaker 2: all that to say, Byron did respond and he's, you know,
- 8:44Speaker 2: he and he respects the rabbis and and of course
- 8:46Speaker 2: he wants to be deferential to them. But so to me,
- 8:51Speaker 2: I think what Rabbi Ril said is very safe. It
- 8:55Speaker 2: keeps It keeps kind of a deflection away from the
- 8:58Speaker 2: conversation because of what we've seen in the past with Hamas.
- 9:01Speaker 2: But I think all this is going to change.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Now. Why would there be such a political upheaval over
- 9:08Speaker 1: a red heifer and a red heifer ceremony and so forth. Well,
- 9:11Speaker 1: you go back to Moses taking instructions from God about
- 9:18Speaker 1: the red heifer, and it's obvious that God wanted the
- 9:21Speaker 1: twelve tribes to be able to purify themselves on their
- 9:25Speaker 1: desert march, and he specified the red heifer as the
- 9:30Speaker 1: source of the purification method. And he stopped and think
- 9:36Speaker 1: about it. They were known in the days of Moses.
- 9:41Speaker 1: The Jews were known as I guess a warrior class
- 9:44Speaker 1: of people. Don't mess around with the Jews. You will
- 9:47Speaker 1: not win the war. And when they escaped Egypt and
- 9:52Speaker 1: then began that forty year March, they sort of developed
- 9:56Speaker 1: a reputation for being the twelve tribes you do not
- 9:59Speaker 1: mess around with, because they were under the blessing of God.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Fast forward to the present and we have Israel back
- 10:08Speaker 1: in the land, and guess what, we're at war again.
- 10:13Speaker 1: The tribes have come back and said we're going to
- 10:16Speaker 1: wipe you out once and for all. But I'm sure
- 10:20Speaker 1: they know about the sacrifice of the red Heifer, and
- 10:23Speaker 1: they know about God's promise to Moses, and that purification
- 10:29Speaker 1: would ensure the Twelve tribes a close relationship with God,
- 10:35Speaker 1: the strength and the power and the faith to win
- 10:39Speaker 1: a war against the adversary. And the Arabs knowing that
- 10:43Speaker 1: said fellas, we cannot allow them to sacrifice the red heifer.
- 10:49Speaker 1: What if God is really real and what if He
- 10:52Speaker 1: blesses them, We're in deep trouble, and so what shall
- 10:56Speaker 1: we do. Well, We'll try to destroy their ability to
- 10:59Speaker 1: have the ashes that are read to he for And
- 11:02Speaker 1: that's sort of my take on it. And by the way,
- 11:06Speaker 1: in your book you validate that.
- 11:09Speaker 2: Yeah, I talk about the changing nature not only of
- 11:14Speaker 2: the religious groups, but as well as the government of
- 11:17Speaker 2: is Or. We know that right now, really from December
- 11:20Speaker 2: of twenty two, that this is the most religious government
- 11:23Speaker 2: in the history of Israel, and so things are changing there.
- 11:26Speaker 2: We also see I was in Israel in the middle
- 11:30Speaker 2: of twenty three and there was a lot of riots,
- 11:33Speaker 2: there was a lot of disunity, and then a big
- 11:36Speaker 2: mistake happened in that sense from a and Islamic perspective
- 11:41Speaker 2: or a Hamas perspective, and you had Israel destroying itself. Well,
- 11:45Speaker 2: then the attack of October seventh happened and you had
- 11:47Speaker 2: instant unity, which again is not what Hamas really wanted
- 11:52Speaker 2: or intended. And so you see that shift. And now
- 11:55Speaker 2: Hamas is at the point and with especially with the
- 11:57Speaker 2: Trump administration's backing, Hamas has no future. It is going
- 12:01Speaker 2: to be removed by force because they won't lay down
- 12:05Speaker 2: their arms. And so you see all this changing. But
- 12:07Speaker 2: when they came out in January of twenty four describing
- 12:10Speaker 2: that one of the reasons they attacked in October of
- 12:12Speaker 2: twenty three was because of the again using their words
- 12:16Speaker 2: five red cows.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Sorry you are forgiven, Yeah, I'm quoting them.
- 12:22Speaker 2: So but nevertheless, because of these five red heifers they attacked.
- 12:26Speaker 2: And so again propaganda. They don't need a reason to
- 12:28Speaker 2: kill Jews, that's just what they use that they're good
- 12:30Speaker 2: at that. But it brings us up, Gary again to
- 12:33Speaker 2: kind of another topic, which this came out just in
- 12:37Speaker 2: the last couple of days, because the question is is
- 12:41Speaker 2: will Israel. We know the Bible says Israel is going
- 12:43Speaker 2: to build a temple when that happens. We don't know
- 12:45Speaker 2: the details, but again the Red Heifer ceremony is kind
- 12:48Speaker 2: of kind of a precursor to that. But what we're
- 12:50Speaker 2: seeing is a shift as well in the in the
- 12:55Speaker 2: opinion of Islam. And what I mean by Islam is
- 12:58Speaker 2: primarily Sunni Islam. For people in my not know. If
- 13:02Speaker 2: you look at Mecca and Medina and Saudi Arabia, that's
- 13:05Speaker 2: really the foundation of Islam altogether. But it is the
- 13:08Speaker 2: foundation as well, the headquarters of Sunni Islam. When you
- 13:11Speaker 2: go to the other group, the Shi'ah or the Shiites,
- 13:15Speaker 2: they are primarily Iraq, Iran, Hesba Llah someplace some in
- 13:20Speaker 2: Syria as well as Hamas. But the question is, well,
- 13:25Speaker 2: what does Saudi Arabia think about the Jews. Well, we've
- 13:28Speaker 2: seen that shift lately, and we could go back to
- 13:31Speaker 2: the Abrahamic Accords, going back to September of twenty twenty,
- 13:35Speaker 2: where based on the first Trump administration, the United Arab
- 13:39Speaker 2: Emirates Bahrain and then later in October Sudan agreed to
- 13:44Speaker 2: normalize relations with Israel. Even in December of that year,
- 13:48Speaker 2: he had Israel and Morocco begin normalizing things. And so
- 13:50Speaker 2: the question was we'll sow Saudi Arabia be next in
- 13:55Speaker 2: joining the Abrahamic Accords. Well, I want to read a
- 13:58Speaker 2: quote and get your thoughts on this, Gary, because just
- 14:01Speaker 2: in the last couple of days, we know that the
- 14:03Speaker 2: Prince Mohammed ben Salomon Uh, he's often called MBS for short.
- 14:09Speaker 2: He's he's a he's a younger guy, probably forty.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Uh.
- 14:13Speaker 2: He's very into modernization. But he and so he's the
- 14:17Speaker 2: next king. Okay, he's prince, he's gonna be king. But
- 14:20Speaker 2: out of the out of sud Arabia, we read this.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia has banned all public displays of support for Palestine. Quote.
- 14:28Speaker 2: This is what he says. The Palestinian cause is not
- 14:32Speaker 2: my cause. I only care about my country and the
- 14:35Speaker 2: people of my country. We will not waste time with radicalism.
- 14:39Speaker 2: We will modernize rapidly. And of course we know that
- 14:42Speaker 2: they're building, uh, this huge city in the desert out there,
- 14:49Speaker 2: imaginably five hundred billion, one hundred and seventy five kilometers.
- 14:54Speaker 2: It's it's amazing.
- 14:55Speaker 1: It's supposed to be the glory of the whole earth.
- 14:59Speaker 1: It is, if you will, the Arab dream.
- 15:01Speaker 2: It's the Arab dream. And so I mean, let's get
- 15:04Speaker 2: your thoughts Gary on this. I mean the fact that
- 15:06Speaker 2: MBS here is saying we don't care about the Palestine
- 15:09Speaker 2: cause anymore, We're not going to support radicalism. That's a
- 15:12Speaker 2: big shift. I mean, you've been watching this for a while.
- 15:14Speaker 2: What's your thoughts on that?
- 15:16Speaker 1: Well, my thoughts are that Saudi Arabia has long allied
- 15:23Speaker 1: itself with the Europe and with the West, and in
- 15:28Speaker 1: terms of technology, oil backed by oil, because they are
- 15:34Speaker 1: a major oil source, has taken them in an entirely
- 15:39Speaker 1: different direction as Sunni Muslims. They think of themselves as
- 15:46Speaker 1: more rational people, more calm, cool and collected than the
- 15:50Speaker 1: site Muslims, which I think.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Is true, especially now.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Especially now, and so they I think would be willing
- 16:00Speaker 1: to strike a bargain with the West, and I think
- 16:03Speaker 1: we see the maneuvering for that right now.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Yeah. This is Remember that this is so huge because
- 16:11Speaker 2: even as recently as six months ago or whatever, we
- 16:15Speaker 2: know that roughly around the summer of twenty three, okay,
- 16:18Speaker 2: so a little less than two years ago, there was
- 16:20Speaker 2: a lot of momentum that Israel was going to be
- 16:23Speaker 2: normalizing relations with Saudi Arabia, and again possibly joining the
- 16:28Speaker 2: Abrahamic Accords, and that was well known, and so Hamas
- 16:35Speaker 2: used that as one of their pretexts to attack Israel
- 16:38Speaker 2: in order because they knew they knew Israel had to respond,
- 16:42Speaker 2: which always when Israel responds the Palestinians or Hamas in
- 16:46Speaker 2: this case, we'll get sympathy from the Arab world. Well,
- 16:49Speaker 2: I think they overplayed their hand because they didn't realize
- 16:52Speaker 2: that Israel respond in the exact way. And then once
- 16:55Speaker 2: all the publicity came out about the barbarity of the Hamas,
- 16:59Speaker 2: you know, murdering babies and putting them in the ovens
- 17:02Speaker 2: and women and everything else, that backfired on them because
- 17:06Speaker 2: this is why he made the comment that they will
- 17:08Speaker 2: not support radicalism or waste time with it. Because so
- 17:12Speaker 2: they overplayed their hand. And now since then there was
- 17:16Speaker 2: a little bit of time about with about twelve months,
- 17:19Speaker 2: of course, what Hamas said was true, and Saudi Arabia
- 17:22Speaker 2: came out. They were talking about the Israel's war with
- 17:25Speaker 2: Hamas and they were speaking out against Israel. Saudi Arabia
- 17:28Speaker 2: that's over now is over. So the fact that he
- 17:33Speaker 2: just made this comment the last few days, it brings
- 17:36Speaker 2: up the other thing too, is Saudi Arabia has offered
- 17:41Speaker 2: to take over administration of the Temple Mount from Jordan,
- 17:46Speaker 2: the walk for the Waq which was given to them
- 17:48Speaker 2: in nineteen sixty seven. So if Saudi Arabia comes in
- 17:52Speaker 2: and is able to normalize with Israel, they don't care
- 17:56Speaker 2: about the policy and cause based on that quote, and
- 17:59Speaker 2: they come to put potentially control the Temple Mount, why
- 18:03Speaker 2: are they going to care if a temple is built there,
- 18:05Speaker 2: a Jewish temple. These are the things that are again
- 18:08Speaker 2: when we talk about prophetic convergences, it's pretty amazing.
- 18:11Speaker 1: Plus the fact that we have had a war in
- 18:15Speaker 1: the last year and a half that I think is
- 18:19Speaker 1: described in several of the minor prophets. I'm looking at
- 18:23Speaker 1: zeph and Ayah and zeph and Iya, and the theme
- 18:28Speaker 1: is the day of the Lord is at hand. In
- 18:30Speaker 1: other words, latter days there will come a time when
- 18:35Speaker 1: the nations will try to wipe out Israel once and
- 18:38Speaker 1: for all, and God says no, no. At that time,
- 18:44Speaker 1: my great and terrible day will arrive and Israel will survive.
- 18:50Speaker 1: And so I think we're living somewhere in that time
- 18:54Speaker 1: zone right now. I really do. And I could read
- 19:00Speaker 1: the whole book of zeph Andi. You can read it
- 19:02Speaker 1: for yourself. But zeph and Iya talks about those that
- 19:07Speaker 1: leap upon the threshold and they fill their master's houses
- 19:13Speaker 1: with violence and deceit. And zeph and I goes on
- 19:17Speaker 1: to describe a war and the the the promotion of
- 19:25Speaker 1: that war comes from Gaza, says Cephni. And saw I
- 19:29Speaker 1: looked at this and I thought, well, you know, I'm
- 19:31Speaker 1: not one to read, you know, literally what's going on
- 19:35Speaker 1: in the world today. In the Bible, on the other hand,
- 19:39Speaker 1: we have described here a latter day war in which
- 19:45Speaker 1: Israel is invaded. Israel's back in the land. All started
- 19:50Speaker 1: back in eighteen ninety seven, and you know, we have
- 19:52Speaker 1: the long, long story, and Israel is back in the land.
- 19:57Speaker 1: And I believe that Israel well is not only making
- 20:03Speaker 1: some very very powerful agreements with the West, but I
- 20:08Speaker 1: think Israel has a shall we say, a highly developed
- 20:17Speaker 1: weapons system that nobody knows about. But from now, from
- 20:21Speaker 1: from every once in a while, you hear something about
- 20:27Speaker 1: Israel having very powerful military equipment, shall we say. And
- 20:33Speaker 1: so to me, this is where we are right now.
- 20:37Speaker 1: And as a prophecy watcher, you know, and Jesus said,
- 20:41Speaker 1: watch therefore, for you don't know when the day is coming.
- 20:46Speaker 1: But and we are watching, and if you are a
- 20:50Speaker 1: serious watcher, everything is coming together as we have imagined
- 20:58Speaker 1: that it might. Israel is not only back, but is
- 21:04Speaker 1: being attacked in certain ways described in scripture. And I
- 21:09Speaker 1: think that your comments about Saudi Arabia just really put
- 21:15Speaker 1: the whole thing together.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be it'll be fascinating to watch because I mean,
- 21:19Speaker 2: as we are watching, we look over and you mentioned
- 21:22Speaker 2: Israel's military capability and their weapons. Because the question is
- 21:28Speaker 2: is war with Iran coming? So we know that just
- 21:30Speaker 2: recently Trump had which is really rare, he had requested
- 21:35Speaker 2: that nt Yahu come to the White House. He already
- 21:38Speaker 2: he's already been there just in the last couple of
- 21:39Speaker 2: months and as early as next week. So that's to
- 21:43Speaker 2: be summoned, so to speak, if you want to say
- 21:45Speaker 2: it that way. To be summoned to the White House,
- 21:48Speaker 2: I think shows us the the urgency of the situation
- 21:52Speaker 2: with Iran and that Trump is not messing around. I mean,
- 21:56Speaker 2: if we look around right now, the you have two
- 22:01Speaker 2: aircraft carrier groups in the Middle East, in the Mediterranean,
- 22:05Speaker 2: you have a presence of the Mediterranean. In the Red
- 22:08Speaker 2: Sea you have the aircraft carrier Truman there with a
- 22:12Speaker 2: whole bunch of support vessels, even a submarine. In the
- 22:16Speaker 2: Persian Golf you have a you have US Coast Guard
- 22:21Speaker 2: Sentinel Class cutters. In the Indian Ocean, you have that
- 22:24Speaker 2: another Carrier Strike Group number one again carrier cruiser destroyers.
- 22:30Speaker 2: And then we know that there are at least they
- 22:34Speaker 2: didn't say this publicly at first, but the Pentagon just
- 22:38Speaker 2: came out publicly the last couple of days admitting and confessing.
- 22:42Speaker 2: We're not confessing, just acknowledging is a better word, that
- 22:44Speaker 2: there were at least six B two stealth bombers in Diego, Garcia,
- 22:48Speaker 2: you know, and this is an island in the Indian Ocean. Now,
- 22:51Speaker 2: satellite pictures had shown them on the runway kind of
- 22:54Speaker 2: just showing off, like, look they're here. They left Missouri,
- 22:58Speaker 2: the state of Missouri. They're on their way. And so
- 23:01Speaker 2: Trump has said there's a deadline here for Iran in
- 23:05Speaker 2: their talks, and he's he is not going to allow
- 23:10Speaker 2: the talks like the Biden administration or even in the
- 23:12Speaker 2: Obama administration, going back to twenty fifteen with a jcp AWA,
- 23:17Speaker 2: the joint comprehensive plan of action back then with Iran.
- 23:21Speaker 2: Iran is a master at stalling, yes, and so Trump said,
- 23:27Speaker 2: we're not doing that. Here's a deadline, and we're not
- 23:30Speaker 2: going to stall, and we're going to talk directly. There's
- 23:32Speaker 2: no indirect talks which will last for six eight months.
- 23:35Speaker 2: And so with all of the build up, Trump and
- 23:40Speaker 2: if anybody looks at Trump, they have to believe that
- 23:43Speaker 2: he means what he says. And so Iran is being
- 23:47Speaker 2: forced to the table. And Trump has been so clear
- 23:51Speaker 2: they can do this the easy way or they'll get bombs.
- 23:55Speaker 2: I mean, that's a quote.
- 23:56Speaker 1: Well, and when you mentioned the stealth bombers to spirit
- 24:01Speaker 1: this stealth bomber, it is capable of arriving unannounced, shall
- 24:08Speaker 1: we put yes, I mean it out of nowhere, suddenly
- 24:13Speaker 1: there's a stealth bomber with super bombs carrying. And I
- 24:17Speaker 1: would I'm not saying I want those bombs to be dropped,
- 24:20Speaker 1: because I certainly don't. The kind of bombs carried by
- 24:24Speaker 1: the Bee two are once and for all bunker busters,
- 24:28Speaker 1: for sure, Yah, at least bunker busters and maybe ar
- 24:34Speaker 1: nuclear that could wipe out a whole country like Iran.
- 24:39Speaker 1: But it's fascinating to me the Hooties. We read about
- 24:43Speaker 1: the Hooties attacking our naval fleet. What do you think
- 24:49Speaker 1: about That's what's going on.
- 24:51Speaker 2: So again this that's good because the Hooties down in
- 24:55Speaker 2: Yemen are one of Iran's proxies, and so it's interesting
- 24:59Speaker 2: they've been doing this. And then, as we know, in
- 25:02Speaker 2: the last year, who would have thought, I mean, eighteen
- 25:06Speaker 2: months ago, we would have not thought about the Middle
- 25:08Speaker 2: East changing as much as it did since October seventh
- 25:13Speaker 2: of twenty three. But what do we have we have
- 25:16Speaker 2: back then the Hooties were attacking. They even threw some
- 25:19Speaker 2: missiles over at Saudi Arabia. They're attacking Israel. Syria has
- 25:23Speaker 2: been turned upside down, Hesbelah has been decimated, Lebanon is
- 25:28Speaker 2: being forced to dismantle hesbe law, and so with the Uties,
- 25:33Speaker 2: though Iran just publicly admitted in the last week that
- 25:39Speaker 2: they are removing their support from the Uties because the
- 25:45Speaker 2: Americans rightfully so, are defending the travel of shipping, the
- 25:50Speaker 2: shipping lanes there, and they have been bombing the Hooties
- 25:54Speaker 2: every single day, many sorties, and so they're and really
- 25:58Speaker 2: they have the Hooties have no real reason to do
- 26:01Speaker 2: what they do, except again by Iran's instruction. So now
- 26:04Speaker 2: that Iran is being forced, the sanctions are crippling the
- 26:09Speaker 2: Iranian regime. Right now, their currency is is plummeting in
- 26:21Speaker 2: its value. So when you look at all of this,
- 26:24Speaker 2: Iran's stranglehold on the Middle East has completely been obliterated.
- 26:28Speaker 1: By the way the oil game being played on a
- 26:31Speaker 1: global level has now changed with a new president. The
- 26:36Speaker 1: United States has the oil and the natural gas like
- 26:41Speaker 1: nobody else on planet Earth. Even though the Saudis have
- 26:45Speaker 1: an amazing amount of oil, they don't have anything compared
- 26:48Speaker 1: with US. And our current president has promised to start
- 26:53Speaker 1: producing oil and he's going to control the flow and
- 26:57Speaker 1: the price of oil. And in my opinion, that's saying
- 27:01Speaker 1: right at the Middle East as a bargaining chip.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Yeah, because that that they've always been able to use
- 27:06Speaker 2: oil as a leverage, including Saudi Arabia others in opek
- 27:09Speaker 2: if you wanted to say it that way. But you know,
- 27:11Speaker 2: the these talks between directly between the United States and
- 27:15Speaker 2: Iran are happening right now. I mean, April twelfth is
- 27:19Speaker 2: direct talks because Iran is trying to say, well, we're
- 27:22Speaker 2: not going to talk directly, and Trump says, oh, no,
- 27:24Speaker 2: you will, because if you don't, you're going to get bombs.
- 27:27Speaker 2: And so when we look at this, we're going to
- 27:29Speaker 2: see what happens as it relates to these direct things.
- 27:33Speaker 2: But I it's going to be it would be really
- 27:35Speaker 2: unlikely for Iran to capitulate. They have too much mistake
- 27:41Speaker 2: in their reputation because remember, Iran wants to be let
- 27:45Speaker 2: me say it this way. In there you have two
- 27:47Speaker 2: real bat three battles, Turkey and Ertawan, who are soonies.
- 27:51Speaker 2: They want to be the new coliphate of the Middle East.
- 27:55Speaker 2: They want to lead it. They want to be the
- 27:57Speaker 2: leaders of Islam. Well, the Sheiites of Iran want to
- 28:00Speaker 2: be the leaders. Well, then you, of course you have
- 28:02Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia who are soonies as well. So Saudi Arabia
- 28:06Speaker 2: and Turkey they kind of have this competition Who's going
- 28:09Speaker 2: to be the leader of Islam. Well, then they have
- 28:11Speaker 2: it against each other. But then they all three of
- 28:13Speaker 2: them have it against each other because you have the
- 28:16Speaker 2: Sheeites of Iran trying to do this, But it would
- 28:20Speaker 2: be unlikely that they would cave. And so most likely
- 28:23Speaker 2: it's going to go to some level of attack, and
- 28:27Speaker 2: I would say, to do it right, I'm not advocating,
- 28:29Speaker 2: but what we see the comments to do it right,
- 28:32Speaker 2: it has to be done really with at least special
- 28:36Speaker 2: force troops on the ground in Iran.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Now I want your opinion on this. Having said what
- 28:41Speaker 1: you just said, I'm going to throw in another idea,
- 28:45Speaker 1: and that is Ezekiel thirty eight Versus one through four,
- 28:49Speaker 1: that incredible introduction to chapter thirty eight that talks about
- 28:54Speaker 1: this guy named Cog and everybody forever and ever. Yeah,
- 29:00Speaker 1: I mean as long as I can remember, when they
- 29:02Speaker 1: talk about Ezekiel's war, they think of it in terms
- 29:08Speaker 1: of happening at or about the time of the rapture
- 29:12Speaker 1: of the Church, and there they also say, that's got
- 29:16Speaker 1: to be Russia. It's got to be Russia coming south
- 29:19Speaker 1: and perhaps in league with Turkey and other nations in
- 29:22Speaker 1: the Middle East against Israel. And everybody has always said, well,
- 29:26Speaker 1: what would draw Russia down to the Middle East? So
- 29:31Speaker 1: I want your opinion on that. As you've studied scripture,
- 29:35Speaker 1: how does that fit with what's going on now?
- 29:37Speaker 2: I think that one of the typical answers that people
- 29:40Speaker 2: will give. I try to be fair to all the sides.
- 29:43Speaker 2: One of the typical answers is in easy thirty. If
- 29:46Speaker 2: you have the protest by Shiva and d Dan saying
- 29:49Speaker 2: have you come to take spoil?
- 29:50Speaker 1: Now Shiva and d Dan would be would.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Be Saudi Arabia most likely, you know all of Saudi
- 29:55Speaker 2: Arabia and.
- 29:55Speaker 1: So, and that's why I'm asking, yeah.
- 29:58Speaker 2: And what I would say is, we can't. We can't
- 30:00Speaker 2: make that as a one hundred percent certain because just
- 30:03Speaker 2: because you have a quote by the protesters have you
- 30:07Speaker 2: come to take spoil? I mean, that's a good indication
- 30:09Speaker 2: of at least what they think is that Russia and
- 30:13Speaker 2: the other coalition have come down to again to take
- 30:16Speaker 2: the resource of Israel. But we also know that one
- 30:19Speaker 2: of the main reason that's spoken of in the text
- 30:21Speaker 2: is that God himself puts a hook in the jaw
- 30:25Speaker 2: and turns it, turns, turns Gog around to come down.
- 30:29Speaker 2: And so you have God's supernatural guidance there, if you
- 30:32Speaker 2: want to say it, or the hardening of the heart
- 30:34Speaker 2: like Pharaoh to accomplish his goal, because God's goal. Just
- 30:37Speaker 2: like with Pharaoh, I have hardened Pharaoh's heart because I'm
- 30:39Speaker 2: going to be glorified in the world's eyes. And in
- 30:43Speaker 2: the same way you see that language in thirty eight
- 30:45Speaker 2: and thirty nine that God is going to hook God down,
- 30:49Speaker 2: and he says, then the whole world will know, and
- 30:51Speaker 2: my glory will be made known. So whatever God's reasons are,
- 30:55Speaker 2: he is going to be glorified in it. But what
- 30:57Speaker 2: you see is is going to be humbled here. And
- 31:02Speaker 2: so the fact that they would have an opportunity to
- 31:05Speaker 2: join with Turkey and Russia in a revenge plot against
- 31:11Speaker 2: Israel in an Easyco thirty eight, it fits very nicely
- 31:14Speaker 2: with what we're seeing. We also know again our good
- 31:16Speaker 2: friend Bill Solace has written a lot about Jeremi forty
- 31:19Speaker 2: nine and where you have Elam, which is again on
- 31:22Speaker 2: the southwestern part near the water of Iran getting attacked,
- 31:28Speaker 2: And so do we have a Jeremi forty nine prophecy fulfillment?
- 31:32Speaker 2: And I think Bill would say that he believes that
- 31:35Speaker 2: Jeremi forty nine is fulfilled prior to Exco thirty dy.
- 31:39Speaker 2: But it sets it up. So all we're seeing right
- 31:41Speaker 2: now is we're getting ready to see the potential humiliation
- 31:45Speaker 2: of Iran with Trump and Israel at the lead, and
- 31:50Speaker 2: that creates that again for somebody as proud as well,
- 31:54Speaker 2: not that Trump doesn't have his own pride for sure,
- 31:57Speaker 2: but for people as proud as the Iranians and you
- 32:02Speaker 2: had Islam on there, this this is going to be
- 32:06Speaker 2: this is going to be very difficult for them to
- 32:08Speaker 2: be humbled in this way again and to be humbled internationally.
- 32:12Speaker 2: So that being the case, they would be very eager
- 32:15Speaker 2: to join with any sort of again retaliatory action against
- 32:20Speaker 2: Israel in the future.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Now having discussed these things, and by the way, this
- 32:25Speaker 1: is very exciting, and made more exciting by the fact
- 32:29Speaker 1: that our current president is a very dramatic man. He
- 32:34Speaker 1: loves to stay up all night and then at eight
- 32:37Speaker 1: o'clock the next morning he'll say, here's what I'm going
- 32:40Speaker 1: to do, and the whole world, you know, says what.
- 32:44Speaker 2: The world is reeling because of Trump.
- 32:47Speaker 1: Absolutely like it or not, like it or not. And
- 32:50Speaker 1: it's exciting, but it also sort of makes you wonder.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Well, it interrupts the status quo, which it does. That's
- 32:58Speaker 2: what makes me excited about it, Gary, is that this
- 33:01Speaker 2: idea of things just continuing. Now. What has happened here
- 33:04Speaker 2: is the whole international order has been turned upside down.
- 33:08Speaker 2: For good or ill, we'll find out. But nevertheless it is.
- 33:11Speaker 1: There are somewhere in the teens a number of books
- 33:15Speaker 1: right now on the pre Tribulation, raptor the Church. I
- 33:19Speaker 1: counted thirteen. There may be more that have a title
- 33:24Speaker 1: that is something like Jesus is Coming Soon, or look
- 33:29Speaker 1: up for the Rapture, or whatever the title that happens
- 33:31Speaker 1: to be. And by the way, these are not books
- 33:36Speaker 1: that have been quickly written. There's a lot of thought
- 33:38Speaker 1: going into them, and some of our best Bible scholars
- 33:43Speaker 1: have written the book and sometimes it'll be one hundred
- 33:47Speaker 1: and twenty pages. Sure, you know Jesus is coming soon. Okay,
- 33:50Speaker 1: how do we fit this fact that the thought, the
- 33:55Speaker 1: Christian thought that we're very very close into what we've
- 33:58Speaker 1: just been talking about.
- 34:00Speaker 2: Well, I think this is why, you know, again we
- 34:02Speaker 2: haven't if we have a few more topics here to discuss,
- 34:04Speaker 2: because what we're seeing is you and I were talking,
- 34:07Speaker 2: We talked about this quite often, is that there's a
- 34:10Speaker 2: convergence of all of these things coming together, which is
- 34:14Speaker 2: causing people, even unbelievers or even believers, are brothers and
- 34:18Speaker 2: sisters in Christ who have maybe a different eschatology than
- 34:22Speaker 2: we do. Uh, maybe they're partial predatist or you know,
- 34:24Speaker 2: all millennial whatever, they're still looking around and going huh.
- 34:29Speaker 2: Those dispensationalists are getting awfully lucky in their in their
- 34:34Speaker 2: interpretations because a lot of what has been said from
- 34:37Speaker 2: a futurist perspective is coming to be And uh, and
- 34:41Speaker 2: I want to bring up this one article, Gary, because
- 34:43Speaker 2: really you're you're the you're the man on this one
- 34:45Speaker 2: in that back in November of twenty twenty, you wrote
- 34:48Speaker 2: an article on the ten Kings and the Oligarchs and
- 34:50Speaker 2: could they be Oligarchs? And then of course you and
- 34:53Speaker 2: I have done some work on that together since then.
- 34:55Speaker 2: But the title of this report is and I'll get
- 34:58Speaker 2: your thoughts on this because we can't go all the
- 35:00Speaker 2: way with to ten Kings idea. But it says the
- 35:03Speaker 2: Pentagon considers tasking Musks SpaceX with military missile tracking satellite program,
- 35:12Speaker 2: And then it says, let me just read a couple
- 35:14Speaker 2: quotes and get your thoughts. It says his SpaceX company
- 35:17Speaker 2: is reported to be about to considerably expand its share
- 35:20Speaker 2: military business, as the Pentagon considers overhauling a program to
- 35:24Speaker 2: deploy hundreds of missile tracking satellites into low orbit. The
- 35:27Speaker 2: Washington Post quote competitors have fallen so far behind SpaceX
- 35:32Speaker 2: that many fear they won't be able to catch up,
- 35:34Speaker 2: leaving NASA and the Pentagon with a few other options
- 35:36Speaker 2: as it faces increased competition in space from China and
- 35:40Speaker 2: other nation. Musk's Hard Charging company rakes in billions of
- 35:44Speaker 2: dollars from the US government, flying everything from cargo to
- 35:46Speaker 2: astronauts to some of the Defense Department's most sensitive satellites.
- 35:50Speaker 2: The company also operates more than seven thousand Starlink Internet
- 35:54Speaker 2: satellites and orbit more than any other entity. The space
- 35:57Speaker 2: X Falcon nine is the most reliable rocket in space
- 36:01Speaker 2: exploration history. And then it goes down and it says
- 36:06Speaker 2: large satellites which are currently Dependagon has are vulnerable to attacks.
- 36:10Speaker 2: So the Pentagon is opting for swarms of smaller satellites,
- 36:13Speaker 2: hard to target and providing redundancy where they are. The
- 36:17Speaker 2: missile warning system is expected to have between three hundred
- 36:20Speaker 2: to five hundred satellites in low Earth orbit. SpaceX won
- 36:25Speaker 2: the majority of the Lane two contracts that run through
- 36:27Speaker 2: twenty twenty nine, but the Pentagon is expected to increasingly
- 36:30Speaker 2: go with SpaceX since the Falcon nine is very reliable. So, Gary,
- 36:37Speaker 2: how does this play in does this plane at all
- 36:39Speaker 2: to prophetic developments?
- 36:40Speaker 1: Well, you know, when you read the Old Testament the
- 36:42Speaker 1: profits looking forward to the New Testament, Daniel, for example,
- 36:46Speaker 1: it talks about a certain quality of leadership that will
- 36:51Speaker 1: arise in the latter days. And of course the idea
- 36:56Speaker 1: of men just like Elon Musk, just like Elon Musk,
- 37:03Speaker 1: very wealthy, very influential, very bright people who are type A,
- 37:10Speaker 1: and there are several of them all face of the
- 37:12Speaker 1: planet today, who would love to put their collective knowledge
- 37:17Speaker 1: together and under the rubric of if we get together
- 37:22Speaker 1: and calm the world down and control the EBB and
- 37:26Speaker 1: flow of weaponry and of global economics, we can have
- 37:31Speaker 1: world peace.
- 37:33Speaker 2: That's the idea. And what do we know. We know
- 37:37Speaker 2: that just prior to the arrival of the day of
- 37:42Speaker 2: the Lord, they'll be saying peace and safety. And when
- 37:45Speaker 2: sudden destruction comes back. You've quoted the Rite script Versussonians five.
- 37:50Speaker 2: And if you sudden destruction will come upon them, not us.
- 37:52Speaker 2: And so what I find interesting here, Gary, and we
- 37:55Speaker 2: don't have spent a long time on this, is just
- 37:57Speaker 2: that in talking about the Ten Kings of Revelation seventeen
- 38:02Speaker 2: and Daniel chapter seven. I think that I do believe,
- 38:08Speaker 2: and I'm not necessarily right, but I do believe these
- 38:11Speaker 2: ten Kings are not kings in the traditional sense, but
- 38:13Speaker 2: they are influencers. They're figures. Then we know. Revelations seventeen
- 38:17Speaker 2: thirteen says there's going to come a time when it
- 38:20Speaker 2: says clearly that these ten figures, these ten influencers with
- 38:24Speaker 2: how do you influence money, wealth, technology? It says they
- 38:27Speaker 2: will hand over, they will give over to the Antichrist
- 38:31Speaker 2: their capabilities and their power. And so what you're seeing
- 38:36Speaker 2: here with this with Musk now getting involved potentially or
- 38:41Speaker 2: being involved in the Pentagon from a military perspective, So
- 38:44Speaker 2: when you come on that day and he yeah, I'm
- 38:46Speaker 2: not saying he's going to own these, but he's going
- 38:49Speaker 2: to have the technology to deliver it and everything else.
- 38:51Speaker 2: And on that day with his by then it could
- 38:53Speaker 2: be twenty thousand Starling satellites, and he comes to the Antichrist,
- 38:56Speaker 2: and the Antichrist says, hey, look, and I believe this
- 38:59Speaker 2: will happen in the midpoint of the tribulation, Hey, I
- 39:02Speaker 2: need to have the ability to track and to surveil,
- 39:06Speaker 2: and somebody like Musk, we'll say I can handle that.
- 39:11Speaker 2: I can hand over to you all of my technological
- 39:14Speaker 2: abilities for you to surveil and to keep track of
- 39:16Speaker 2: everything in the implementation of the Mark of the Beast,
- 39:20Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. So when we see these things,
- 39:23Speaker 2: with this expanding of these technocrats into these other fields,
- 39:28Speaker 2: it just fits very nicely in what we expect.
- 39:31Speaker 1: Now. I just have to point out that the way
- 39:34Speaker 1: you laid out a scenario here makes the rapture of
- 39:39Speaker 1: the church.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Pretty close even sooner, doesn't it.
- 39:42Speaker 1: It does, yep, because the raptor of the Church has
- 39:44Speaker 1: to happen before all of Ezekiel and Daniel's prophecies really
- 39:49Speaker 1: roll into full scale. And so you're really inadvertently saying,
- 39:56Speaker 1: look up, your redemption draws near.
- 40:00Speaker 2: The prophecy watchers, Gary, I mean, we always do, right.
- 40:03Speaker 1: And I'm very excited about this, and I'm very cautious
- 40:07Speaker 1: and have been for years about what I say about
- 40:10Speaker 1: Bible prophecy, and I think you have to be careful.
- 40:13Speaker 1: You can't jump in and say I've got the date
- 40:15Speaker 1: to the raptor.
- 40:16Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I don't ever say that.
- 40:17Speaker 1: Yeah, But on the other hand, when things begin to
- 40:20Speaker 1: shape together in a biblical, a biblically ordained way that's recognizable,
- 40:29Speaker 1: the Oligarchs, the ten Kings, a very very clear delineation
- 40:36Speaker 1: of what's going to happen in the rapture, after the rapture,
- 40:39Speaker 1: i should say, and going into the tribulation. So to me,
- 40:43Speaker 1: this is very exciting, just tremendously.
- 40:46Speaker 2: Yeah, it's exciting because we're you know, as we always say,
- 40:49Speaker 2: we're not excited about the day of the Lord and
- 40:50Speaker 2: the day of tribulation or judgment where half the world's
- 40:53Speaker 2: going to be dead. We're excited for what happens after that,
- 40:56Speaker 2: and that's the Lord Jesus's second coming where he fixes
- 40:59Speaker 2: the world. But this brings us into another again article
- 41:03Speaker 2: that came out recently, because what we know is Revelation
- 41:06Speaker 2: thirteen sixteen through eighteen that the Antichrist at that midpoint
- 41:10Speaker 2: develops or implements the mark of the Beast, which again
- 41:13Speaker 2: has an economic component about buying and selling. And so
- 41:17Speaker 2: the title this article is Trump's stable coin embrace. This
- 41:22Speaker 2: is talking about crypto. Trump's stable coin embrace pushes the
- 41:26Speaker 2: European Union to accelerate its digital euro plans, and so
- 41:30Speaker 2: you have it says the European Central Bank has been
- 41:32Speaker 2: laying the groundwork for a digital Euro for several years,
- 41:35Speaker 2: entering the preparation phase back in late twenty three. So
- 41:38Speaker 2: again eighteen months ago, and it says a final decision
- 41:41Speaker 2: from the from EU law makers on whether to greenlight
- 41:45Speaker 2: the central big digital currency is expected by the end
- 41:47Speaker 2: of this year. And so the European Central Bank President
- 41:51Speaker 2: he makes a comment, I think it's critically important and
- 41:53Speaker 2: for the agnostics or the skeptics, it now seems more
- 41:57Speaker 2: relevant and more imperative than ever before, both on the
- 41:59Speaker 2: wholesale and on the retail level. And the sense of
- 42:03Speaker 2: urgency comes amid a shifting landscape in the United States
- 42:06Speaker 2: where the Trump administration's pro cryptostance has raised eyebrows in Europe.
- 42:11Speaker 2: And just a couple other quotes and then get your
- 42:13Speaker 2: thoughts on this. Pierre Gromegna, Managing director of the European
- 42:18Speaker 2: Stability Mechanism. More than America's pivot towards stable coins, these
- 42:23Speaker 2: are cryptocurrencies pegged to assets like the US dollar, could
- 42:26Speaker 2: embolden US and foreign tech giants to roll out mass
- 42:30Speaker 2: payment systems tied to dollar denominated tokens. And I'll just
- 42:33Speaker 2: say this that on that these well, I'll just keep
- 42:37Speaker 2: reading because I have a couple of things that says
- 42:39Speaker 2: if he quote, if this were to be successful, it
- 42:41Speaker 2: could affect the Euro's monetary sovereignty and financial stability. He
- 42:45Speaker 2: argued that the European Central Bank must act swiftly to
- 42:49Speaker 2: make the digital Euro a reality, framing it as a
- 42:52Speaker 2: vital tool to safeguard europe strtategic autonomy in an increasingly
- 42:56Speaker 2: digital financial world. Gramegna's concerns are not hypothetical. Tech giants
- 43:00Speaker 2: like Meta have previously attempted to launch stable coin based
- 43:04Speaker 2: payment systems, such as the ill fated DM project, which
- 43:08Speaker 2: aimed to pair a digital currency with a wallet for
- 43:11Speaker 2: global transaction. It's also worth noting that at the time
- 43:14Speaker 2: when the DM libra was introduced, most regulators had a
- 43:17Speaker 2: more hostile approach towards such innovations, and now they are
- 43:20Speaker 2: far more receptive and cooperative. And I'll just remind people
- 43:23Speaker 2: again on this that what we've seen Trump are Musk
- 43:28Speaker 2: discuss again. We have Meta, but Musk has discussed turning
- 43:35Speaker 2: x dot com into a payment platform, and we know
- 43:38Speaker 2: that if people can remember that Musk was one of
- 43:41Speaker 2: the founders of PayPal, so he sees in the future
- 43:44Speaker 2: the need to mimic what we see already in the
- 43:48Speaker 2: East in China with the Ali Baba app. I mean,
- 43:52Speaker 2: the stuff that they do is already cashless everywhere, so
- 43:54Speaker 2: they're trying to get this into the West. And so
- 43:59Speaker 2: the last common here. As global financial systems digitize, the
- 44:03Speaker 2: EU faces a pivotal choice accelerate its central big digital
- 44:07Speaker 2: currency plans or potentially risk seding influence to dollar backed
- 44:12Speaker 2: digital currencies. But the long term impact of these innovations
- 44:15Speaker 2: could be a lot different, with many different forms of
- 44:18Speaker 2: digital currencies competing for market share. Here we are Gary,
- 44:21Speaker 2: I mean, this stuff is being implemented right now. It
- 44:24Speaker 2: not going away.
- 44:25Speaker 1: And as you read that, my heart beat a little
- 44:28Speaker 1: bit faster because I was going back in my mind
- 44:32Speaker 1: to the end of the twentieth century. And you know
- 44:38Speaker 1: about thirty twenty five, thirty years ago, people were talking
- 44:42Speaker 1: about the ten elements of world rule. And you remember
- 44:48Speaker 1: the maps. They were printing maps and here's how it
- 44:51Speaker 1: might be laid out, and they were looking at Bible prophecy,
- 44:55Speaker 1: our wonderful friend at the time, Tim Lahay came out
- 44:59Speaker 1: in many May anyways and said, Okay, here's the way
- 45:01Speaker 1: it's going to be. There will be these ten rulers,
- 45:05Speaker 1: and here's the way they might be positioned.
- 45:08Speaker 2: The Club of Rome idea.
- 45:09Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, And he and many other people laid out
- 45:13Speaker 1: and what about the European community, you know when it
- 45:16Speaker 1: was divided the way it was is oh here it is.
- 45:18Speaker 2: Yep, Jack Nimpi was on it.
- 45:20Speaker 1: But now we come another stage further and we've just
- 45:25Speaker 1: been talking about two things. Number one, global oligarchy yep
- 45:29Speaker 1: and the ten oligarchs yep. And global monetary systems that
- 45:37Speaker 1: didn't even exist ten twenty years ago when we're talking
- 45:42Speaker 1: about this. So now we have a much clearer focus
- 45:45Speaker 1: on what we've been talking about for the last three
- 45:48Speaker 1: or four decades. The one World government.
- 45:51Speaker 2: Absolutely and you know that again great segue because the
- 45:53Speaker 2: last article I want to bring up this was an
- 45:56Speaker 2: excellent article written by Alex Newman just in the past
- 45:59Speaker 2: few day Because the question always is where where is
- 46:05Speaker 2: the U N the United Nations? We know it's pretty
- 46:07Speaker 2: inept in what it's done, uh, and it's in its efficiency,
- 46:12Speaker 2: but will the UN be part of that final B system,
- 46:17Speaker 2: it most likely has to be in some regard. But
- 46:20Speaker 2: he he wrote this article entitled U N Shipping tax
- 46:24Speaker 2: to fuel global tyranny and that the question that has
- 46:29Speaker 2: come up is the UN has one. Let me say
- 46:33Speaker 2: it this way. One of the reasons for its ineptness
- 46:36Speaker 2: is that it lacks a lot of money. It's funded
- 46:38Speaker 2: by nations, primarily the United States. It's based in New York.
- 46:42Speaker 2: But it's all it's longed. It's just desperately wanted a
- 46:46Speaker 2: way to raise money, and because it knows with money
- 46:51Speaker 2: that it can influence far more. And so it's interesting
- 46:55Speaker 2: going back to even King Charles he a at a
- 46:58Speaker 2: I don't know. People can find the you online, but
- 47:01Speaker 2: he talks about nobody knows exactly who he was talking about.
- 47:05Speaker 2: He made a comment that we need to have trillions
- 47:09Speaker 2: of dollars at his disposal, like, well, who's his there?
- 47:14Speaker 2: But will that be the coming Antichrist? Most likely? But
- 47:17Speaker 2: the question is is where are they going to get
- 47:18Speaker 2: the money? Well, now you have the UN trying to
- 47:22Speaker 2: do this, and it says Alex writes this. Alex is phenomenal.
- 47:27Speaker 2: He's always a speaker at our conferences. He says this,
- 47:30Speaker 2: a powerful but little known UN agency is quietly plotting
- 47:34Speaker 2: to impose global taxes on international maritime shipping under the
- 47:38Speaker 2: guise of fighting carbon dioxide emissions and climate change. Americans
- 47:42Speaker 2: are expected to pay the bulk of the financial costs,
- 47:45Speaker 2: but all of humanity will bear the brunt of an
- 47:47Speaker 2: empowered UN. The International Maritime Organization IMO scheme to tax shipping,
- 47:53Speaker 2: originally backed by the Biden administration, would give the UN
- 47:56Speaker 2: unprecedented power to raise money on its own. It will
- 48:00Speaker 2: also lead to soaring costs for US consumers while transforming
- 48:04Speaker 2: the nature of the UN forever. There are several more
- 48:07Speaker 2: rounds of negotiations to be finalized, but if all goes
- 48:11Speaker 2: according to plan, the UN could be vacuuming up billions
- 48:13Speaker 2: of dollars each week by twenty twenty seven. And so
- 48:17Speaker 2: there's a couple other things that I think would be interesting.
- 48:20Speaker 2: The UN estimates, he writes, and various analysts have long
- 48:24Speaker 2: said the carbon tax on shipping and loan could raise
- 48:26Speaker 2: one hundred billion dollars per year or more. That would
- 48:28Speaker 2: pay for a lot of global government, public loyalty, and
- 48:31Speaker 2: enforcement power. And so one last quote he says here
- 48:37Speaker 2: ironically A report by the governments pushing the plan called
- 48:40Speaker 2: for giving some of the tax revenue of the UN
- 48:44Speaker 2: to those most impacted by the increased costs of shipping.
- 48:47Speaker 2: In short, the UN plan would hurt the poor and
- 48:50Speaker 2: their nations the most by increasing the costs of their
- 48:52Speaker 2: essential goods such as food, and in response, the UN
- 48:55Speaker 2: would then make them dependent on one amounts on what
- 48:59Speaker 2: as to basically new UN welfare schemes. So these governments,
- 49:04Speaker 2: some of these poor governments, are saying, oh, this is great,
- 49:06Speaker 2: but what they're saying is, hey, make sure to give
- 49:09Speaker 2: us kickbacks. So ultimately it's going to be a tax
- 49:12Speaker 2: on the United States and our wealth which is going
- 49:15Speaker 2: to then can be kicked back to these welfare.
- 49:17Speaker 1: As we're talking what's going on, Terraforce. Yeah, absolutely, this
- 49:22Speaker 1: is right spot on exactly what you've been reading about
- 49:26Speaker 1: and the sort of the missing link in global government
- 49:32Speaker 1: as people have envisioned it over the last twenty or
- 49:35Speaker 1: thirty years. Bible scholars have looked at this and scratched
- 49:39Speaker 1: their heads as how can this come about? Today? I
- 49:43Speaker 1: believe we're actually seeing it come about, which is very exciting.
- 49:48Speaker 1: It sort of puts the cap on everything else we've
- 49:51Speaker 1: been saying, and as we speak literally the battle is
- 49:57Speaker 1: terra force global taxation. How's that going to work out?
- 50:01Speaker 1: And who will be the controlling entity when all the
- 50:05Speaker 1: smoke clears? And to me, the Bible has a very
- 50:09Speaker 1: good fix on this whole system.
- 50:12Speaker 2: When we see in Revelation thirteen, and we'll kind of
- 50:15Speaker 2: wrap it up, is when we see in Revelation thirteen,
- 50:17Speaker 2: we see a political organization, we see economics, and we
- 50:21Speaker 2: see a religious and so the things that we're seeing
- 50:24Speaker 2: right now, Gary, is the infrastructure of all these things,
- 50:27Speaker 2: all the technological infrastructure and political infrastructure being put in place.
- 50:32Speaker 2: I mean, let's not leave people. Let's not leave people
- 50:36Speaker 2: on a downer here. Oh now you know in this sense,
- 50:39Speaker 2: you know, share with the audience of Gary if you will.
- 50:42Speaker 2: I mean, somebody's listening to this, and well, what do
- 50:44Speaker 2: I do? I don't know anything about this. I need
- 50:47Speaker 2: to get my life right. I mean, what is the hope?
- 50:49Speaker 2: What is the gospel? It's good to end with the gospel.
- 50:52Speaker 2: How does somebody get saved?
- 50:53Speaker 1: You know what? The gospel is called the blessed Hope.
- 50:56Speaker 1: And at a time like this, particularly like being in
- 51:00Speaker 1: the path of a hurricane or a tornado. You see
- 51:04Speaker 1: it coming and you say, oh, what can I do?
- 51:07Speaker 1: You know, and the best thing you can do is
- 51:12Speaker 1: pray to your Lord and say, Lord, I need your help,
- 51:17Speaker 1: I need you to watch over me at this is
- 51:19Speaker 1: a rough time in my life. And you know, that's
- 51:23Speaker 1: exactly what the Bible suggests for what it predicts will happen.
- 51:28Speaker 1: And we've been talking about what it predicts. We started
- 51:32Speaker 1: out talking about a red heifer and a little battle
- 51:35Speaker 1: in the Middle East, and we've expanded to a global
- 51:39Speaker 1: scenario and we know it's coming. And so I I
- 51:45Speaker 1: would recommend refining your prayer life, appeal to the Lord
- 51:51Speaker 1: Jesus Christ and to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
- 51:56Speaker 1: And I guarantee you that's going to settle down those
- 51:59Speaker 1: little things that are flittering around and your tummy every
- 52:05Speaker 1: time you think about global economics. Absolutely.
- 52:08Speaker 2: I mean, at the end of the day, people can
- 52:10Speaker 2: check out First Contents fifteen one through five. What do
- 52:14Speaker 2: we see. We see that Jesus died for sinners, he
- 52:17Speaker 2: was buried, he was resurrected to eternal life, and for
- 52:22Speaker 2: us to put our faith and trust in his payment
- 52:24Speaker 2: for our sin. I mean that's it's pretty clear. And
- 52:26Speaker 2: then as we look forward, Jesus told us, as we've
- 52:29Speaker 2: been saying, you know, the whole time, that we are
- 52:31Speaker 2: to be watching. He's in Mark thirteen thirty seven. He
- 52:34Speaker 2: told us to be too busy about the Lord's kingdom.
- 52:37Speaker 2: But I mean that's the key. I mean, I mean
- 52:39Speaker 2: you can close this. Gary. What's the phrase? I love
- 52:42Speaker 2: the phrase that you say all the time because it's true.
- 52:45Speaker 1: Well, what I was saying, Mando is keep watching. We
- 52:50Speaker 1: are
