Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to World View Matters, discussing controversial issues, discerning current events,
- 0:10defending biblical Christianity.
- 0:13No topic, off limits.
- 0:16And now, here's your host, David Fierazzo.
- 0:19Hey, friends, thank you so much for tuning in.
- 0:22We are going to jump right into it again as we did Friday's show with John Heller.
- 0:28We covered a lot of ground, but he's with us again.
- 0:30We're doing more information on Israel, what's happening as much of the recent news as
- 0:35we can.
- 0:36But we're going to talk about what's important.
- 0:38There's an ignorance today about true history, not just biblical truth and biblical history,
- 0:45but real world history.
- 0:46We're going to talk about that with John Heller.
- 0:48John, welcome back to World View Matters.
- 0:50Good to have you again.
- 0:51Good to be back with you, David.
- 0:53All right.
- 0:54So where do you want to start today?
- 0:55Because I know there's a lot of things going on, a lot of people were scared of, you
- 0:59know, the reaction to Israel responding, retaliating to the Hamas attack, and there's just chaos.
- 1:07And where do you want to start today?
- 1:10Well, let me start with sort of where a lot of us Christians, and look, there's tremendous
- 1:17division within the body of Christ over the issue of Israel.
- 1:21I am, I guess you could call me a Christian scientist, Zionist, I am not a Christian
- 1:28scientist, a Christian Zionist.
- 1:30I'm glad you clarify.
- 1:31And I believe in a very future role for the nation of Israel that this is the fulfillment
- 1:37of Bible prophecy.
- 1:38I think we're seeing it play out right in front of us.
- 1:42You know, that I did a talk in Texas recently at the Hofer Times conference and my title,
- 1:47my topic was gradually then suddenly.
- 1:50So we live in these prophetic times, there's all these Bible prophecies.
- 1:53We know that most of these Bible prophecies will be fulfilled in a very short, compressed
- 1:58period of time before the Lord's return.
- 2:00So I'm a futurist.
- 2:02I believe that Jesus will return and set up a millennial kingdom where he will rule
- 2:05and reign from Jerusalem in a 1,000 year millennium.
- 2:10So that's where I come from.
- 2:12And I come from that for a perspective.
- 2:14Let me give you an idea as to what happened because Israel was kicked out of the land.
- 2:18They've been kicked out of the land a number of times.
- 2:20In fact, Friday, we mentioned that three weeks ago, Benjamin Netanyahu went to the UN to
- 2:26give his speech.
- 2:28In his speech, he started with Deuteronomy, the biblical passage in Deuteronomy, where Moses
- 2:34brought the children of Israel together near the time of his death and said, I want you
- 2:38to learn the blessings and the curses.
- 2:41If you follow my commandments, there will be blessing.
- 2:44If you ignore them, there will be curses.
- 2:46When they came into the land, Moses died.
- 2:49Joshua brought them in and the conquest.
- 2:51This would have been around 1300 BC.
- 2:55They conquered the land, but as they conquered the land, Joshua took them to the biblical
- 3:00city of Shem, Shekum.
- 3:03And they're in biblical Shekum as you sit in the valley between two mountains, Mount
- 3:09Ebal, where they have recently found Joshua's altar in Mount Ghearzeen, which is the home
- 3:15of the Samaritan still lived there to the state that people who were mentioned in the Bible
- 3:20as Samaritans.
- 3:21There's a small community of them.
- 3:23And they put half of the people of Israel on one mountain, the mountain of blood, of curse,
- 3:28and half on the mountain of blessing.
- 3:30This was no small thing because if we know from difficult times, this probably involves
- 3:36somewhere two million or more people.
- 3:40So they're in the land, and can you imagine what happens?
- 3:43They're shouting the blessings on one hand if they keep it, the curses on the other hand.
- 3:48And Nathaniel made reference to this, and he said, we've had curses.
- 3:53We're seeing curses in the world, but we're also seeing blessings, and he talked about
- 3:56peace.
- 3:58But in the Bible, in Ezekiel chapter 36, one of my favorite passages, and I'll paraphrase
- 4:03it because we're short on time, is Prophet Ezekiel looked down the corridors of history.
- 4:11He wrote in the 560, 580 BC period during the Babylonian captivity, and he said, listen,
- 4:20the people of Israel will be brought back into the land at some point in the future.
- 4:26Now they came back partially and rebuilt the temple, and then they were booted out by
- 4:31the Romans and 70 AD and the diaspora.
- 4:34And then they started to come back in the late 19th century in the Zionist movement.
- 4:40But I believe this fulfillment process, because Jesus, or I'm sorry, Ezekiel said, I will
- 4:44bring you back into the land.
- 4:46And I'm not going to bring you back into the land because you've done good.
- 4:50I kick you out of the land into among the nations, but because you weren't act following
- 4:55my law, you weren't obeying me.
- 4:58And when you went into the nations, you played the harlot, you played the horror among the
- 5:04nations.
- 5:05But I promised that I would bring you back, and my holy name is at stake, so I'm going
- 5:10to bring you back.
- 5:11And when I bring you back, in unbelief, I will put in you a new heart, and you will
- 5:16know the Lord.
- 5:17So I believe we're in this process in the land is transformed.
- 5:21In fact, there's a very famous book called Innocence Abroad by Mark Twain.
- 5:26And in the 1860s, he went to, he made a pilgrimage to Israel, with his modern day Israel.
- 5:33And he had a number of states, and he didn't really like it.
- 5:36He called the Sea of Galilee was, quote, a solemn solidness, tenteless lake, as unpolitical,
- 5:43as any bathtub on earth.
- 5:46The Church of the Naptivity, he said, was tricked out in the usual tasteless style, observable
- 5:51in all of the holy places of Palestine.
- 5:55He also said, as he wrote through the Jezreel Valley on a horseback, he said, there is
- 5:58not a solitary village throughout its whole extent.
- 6:03This is where the city of Magito is located.
- 6:06Not for 30 miles in either direction, there are two or three small clusters of Bedouin
- 6:10tents, but not a single permanent habitation.
- 6:13One may ride 10 miles hereabouts and not see 10 human beings.
- 6:18Of all the lands there are for dismal scenery, scenery, I think Palestine must be the Prince.
- 6:24And the curse of the deity, beautify a leant.
- 6:28So we see that this has changed.
- 6:31And I have pictures in the, I dug her, she did a great book on a sort of Israel then
- 6:36and now.
- 6:37And one of the pictures in there are sand dunes, along the Mediterranean, which today is
- 6:42this multi skyscraper city of Tel Aviv, totally transformed.
- 6:46The pictures are taken in 1909.
- 6:49So Israel changed under the early Zionist movement.
- 6:52The Ottomans controlled that area at the time.
- 6:56They've lost in World War I.
- 6:57Things started to fall apart.
- 6:59The British came in, took over in 1920.
- 7:04There was a conference in San Remo, Italy, where they decided to divide the land between
- 7:08west of the Jordan River to the Mediterranean.
- 7:12That's sort of where they get the West Bank, the West Bank of the Jordan River.
- 7:15It's kind of a misnomer.
- 7:16And then trans Jordan, the trans Jordan was given to the Hashemite family, which is
- 7:22being kicked out of running the holy places in Mecca and the Islamic holy places of Mecca
- 7:27and Medina by the South family in the early 1920s that consolidated into the Kingdom of
- 7:34Saudi Arabia in about 1932 or 1933.
- 7:37The Hashemite Kingdom now, King Abdul II, they were given the opportunity to British post,
- 7:44appointed a guy called the Wach, who's a man named Haji Aman El Hussein because he had
- 7:49made a Haji at pilgrimage to Mecca.
- 7:52He was appointed as charge of the Temple Mount area, the holy places in Jerusalem.
- 7:58He's under, in that exist today, under the Jordanian government.
- 8:02The Haji was virulently anti-Israel.
- 8:06He hated Jews.
- 8:09He instituted a number of pogroms against you.
- 8:12And when a certain leader came to rise to power in the 1930s in a country called Germany,
- 8:18the Haji Aman El Hussein went to Germany to assist that ruler in plans to eradicate
- 8:24the Jews.
- 8:27He came back.
- 8:28He was in control of the Temple Mount.
- 8:30Now at the time in the Temple Mount District, it's about 35 acres.
- 8:34You can see, well, there's a picture of it right behind me in the photograph here.
- 8:39You're looking at the, just over my left shoulder is the Al-Oxah Mosque, see, I point this
- 8:46way.
- 8:47This is the Al-Oxah Mosque right there.
- 8:49And then, of course, the dome of the rock, which I, oh, there it is, it's blocked by my
- 8:53background.
- 8:54But the Al-Oxah Mosque is a holy place of Islam, they say.
- 9:00And it was built there in the 700s AD.
- 9:04Prior to that, they had built the dome of the rock in the late 600s.
- 9:07It's not a mosque.
- 9:08It's a commemorative building.
- 9:10Now the Muslims call the whole 35-acre compound Al-Oxah.
- 9:17And this is important.
- 9:18So in 1929, this Haji Aman El Hussein, who, by the way, later seems to be pretty accurate,
- 9:26he had a nephew that he trained and mentored.
- 9:31His nephew appears, it's certainly a relative.
- 9:35That person's name was Yasser Arafat, who headed up the PLO, created by the Russians in
- 9:42about 1964 as sort of a propaganda thing, the Palestine Liberation Organization.
- 9:49So he put out a thing, the Jews are coming to destroy Al-Oxah.
- 9:55That resulted, I think it was 1929, front page news in the New York Times at the time,
- 10:00about 80 Jewish men, women, and children were slaughtered by Muslims and Hevron, about
- 10:0930 miles south, near the tomb of the patriarchs, where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their wives
- 10:17are buried, the patriarchs and patriarchs of Israel.
- 10:22And so that was the typical program.
- 10:24So Israel, then 1947, this situation, of course we had the Holocaust, and Jews were coming
- 10:32back from all over the world to Israel.
- 10:35And so the UN met in 1947 and approved the partition of the land into Jordan and Israel.
- 10:41And then Israel declared independence in 1948, there was a war immediately.
- 10:47And then in 1967, the Palestinian or the Arab nation surrounding Israel were going to
- 10:53attack, Israel attacked first, destroyed the Jordanian and Egyptian air forces, and in
- 10:58a stunning six day war, took over the entire Sinai peninsula, all the Golan Heights,
- 11:05and everything in Israel, west of the entire nation of Israel, west of the Jordan River.
- 11:12It was a stunning victory.
- 11:15And that's sort of led to the Palestinian problems that we have today.
- 11:20So go ahead and ask us if there were subsequent wars to that.
- 11:24There was a war in 1973 on Yom Kippur, a surprise attack in that lead.
- 11:29I think I mentioned a little bit about the Sun Friday, a Golan War that was turned
- 11:36around mainly because Richard Nixon decided, contrary to a lot of the advice of the advisors
- 11:40to give weapons and arms to Israel.
- 11:43They won the gold of my ear was out of office within six months.
- 11:46That's interesting.
- 11:47That's interesting to see the same thing with Netanyahu.
- 11:49Yeah, that's interesting.
- 11:50You didn't mention that Friday because I was thinking gold of my air got that or made
- 11:53that famous 3 a.m. phone call to the president of the United States at the time, Richard
- 11:58Nixon, who when he was a young man, according to tradition, his mother said, one day you
- 12:05are going to be in a position to help Israel.
- 12:09And Richard Nixon's mom said, Richard answered that call.
- 12:12Now you can look up history on that.
- 12:14I found that to be kind of fascinating because there were some anti-Semites in the Nixon
- 12:19administration and in our government.
- 12:22But anyway, he did help Israel with weaponry ammunition and that changed the face of that
- 12:29war.
- 12:30But John, I want to go back to something here.
- 12:31We kind of skipped over.
- 12:33You mentioned the Dome of the Rock and Abraham.
- 12:38This is about, well, 3,500 years ago, you've got a better handle on that than I do.
- 12:44The Jews have had a religious and ethnic connection to that area and the coastlands since
- 12:51Abraham's time.
- 12:52It was their kingdom, their temple, their heritage.
- 12:56And then, of course, they were forced out of the land, but they came back in the 1940s.
- 13:00As you just mentioned, what's fascinating to me is the land, as you can read in scripture,
- 13:06that's prophetic.
- 13:07It was desolate.
- 13:09It was a desert.
- 13:10The Bible calls it a wasteland.
- 13:12And today, Israel, I believe, is one of the top two or three producers and exporters
- 13:20of produce and technology and all these, but the land is fertile.
- 13:24So that's miraculous.
- 13:26That's, to me, that's God's hand there.
- 13:27I'd love for you to share your thoughts on that before we move on.
- 13:31You know, one of the most moving things you can do in Israel, you should, if you ever
- 13:35go, is go to the Yad Vashim, I've been there a number of times.
- 13:39And the last time we went about 2017, it was a new one that had not been there.
- 13:46I don't remember when they built a new one.
- 13:48But at the end, you go through this, just this oppressive thing of all the things that
- 13:52the Holocaust, the shoes, the jewelry, the things that they dug up around these death
- 13:57camps in Europe.
- 14:01And you know, real cars that they had used to transport Jews and the actual ones.
- 14:06And it's just this oppressive you go through the hall of memories where they have a notebook
- 14:13with a page for each person.
- 14:14They have about three million that they've been able to identify the six million killed.
- 14:18You go through the children's museum, which will just rip your heart out.
- 14:23There's no pictures.
- 14:24It's just points of light to demonstrate all the lights that were of children that were
- 14:29extinguished in the Holocaust.
- 14:31And then at the end, you walk up this ramp and you get to the top of this ramp.
- 14:35You see this expanse of this modern city of Jerusalem with trees and lush and green and
- 14:41all this stuff.
- 14:42And it personally moved me to tears.
- 14:44I love Israel.
- 14:45I love the Jewish people.
- 14:47It's a great land of opportunity.
- 14:49It's not, you know, this is not to be construed that I think everything that they do is perfect.
- 14:54They have a lot of the evils that we see in our own society there as well.
- 15:00Tel Aviv, you know, has probably touts itself is the best place for the rainbow flag on
- 15:07the planet.
- 15:08You can take that with what it means, but it's just an absolutely incredible thing.
- 15:14I think somewhere in the order of a billion trees have been planted in Israel since the
- 15:20founding of the nation of Israel in 1948.
- 15:24So it's green.
- 15:25It's lush.
- 15:26They have pioneered drip irrigation.
- 15:28They brought the desert and some of these deserts, like that in the Gile, they in wilderness,
- 15:33we read about in the Bible, they might get two inches of rain a decade.
- 15:39And it's it's used for agriculture in many respects.
- 15:44So it's the land has come back, but it's not with that.
- 15:47It's very divided.
- 15:48Yeah.
- 15:49We have the Palestinian Arab in his really conflict that's rearing its ugly head as we speak
- 15:54right now.
- 15:56There is a ground operation being prepared to go into Gaza to eradicate this problem that
- 16:05led to the terror attacks on October 7, when which 1300 Israelis over 1300 Israelis have
- 16:12been confirmed at the number changes daily.
- 16:15And then the initial airstrikes in Gaza 1300 Palestinians, but within Israel, it's has
- 16:20not really been covered that much in the news, 1500 Palestinian terrorists were killed.
- 16:25And there's many.
- 16:26In fact, there was one who was taken to an Israeli hospital and literally people came to
- 16:32lynch him.
- 16:33He was being cared for in his really hospital.
- 16:35So process that in your head.
- 16:36He's a Palestinian terrorist being cared for in his really hospital in the midst of a war.
- 16:43So John, before we go on, can I ask you your take on the speculation with all Israel's
- 16:53advancement in technology and their weaponry and their systems of defense and the walls
- 16:59and the iron dome and the fences was this some way an inside job where people on the inside
- 17:07that were able to do something with the fence because they're supposed to be notified
- 17:12apparently whenever someone were to try to climb the fence or touch the fence or whatever
- 17:19on the southern border.
- 17:20Can you tell us a little bit about your thoughts on that and what we're hearing as far as there's
- 17:24no way it could have just happened all from the outside intelligence failures happen all
- 17:29the time.
- 17:31Israel is very, very complicated.
- 17:33They have many enemies, as I said, Irene has been funding terror cells in the West Bank,
- 17:38which has caused them to shift resources.
- 17:41I think the one thing that's, and I understand everybody's concerned about that, I have talked
- 17:48of many, many people in Israel, even people who do not like the current government under
- 17:52BB Netanyahu, they hate it.
- 17:56Not a one of them gives much credence that this was an inside job.
- 17:59There was, there were intelligence failures, but the notion that this was planned by Israel
- 18:07is in my opinion, this is a regurgitation of the medieval anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish tropes
- 18:15that the Jews are trying to control everything in the world and causing all the wars.
- 18:19I do not buy it, I reject it, I think it's anti-Semitic.
- 18:24So I think we need to be very careful as we talk about this.
- 18:26I think we need to be honest.
- 18:28We need to discuss that there were intelligence failures, but this was a very, give the enemies
- 18:33of Israel.
- 18:34These are Israel who are described in Psalm 83, prophetically, and I think this is a prophecy
- 18:40playing out in our midst right now, they have taken crafty counsel against thy people and
- 18:46consulted against thy hidden ones.
- 18:50Give the Iranian, this is an Iranian op, mentioned Friday that the Iranians on newspapers say
- 18:55that we are the hands and feet in mind of Hamas.
- 19:00This was a very cleverly orchestrated operation.
- 19:06I believe they use the charitons.
- 19:08Now, look, this is going to be investigated when in due time, it will be investigated and
- 19:15looked at it.
- 19:16So I think we need to be careful about doing too much speculation about what happened.
- 19:20It's certainly other things that make you scratch your head.
- 19:23How did that happen?
- 19:24But look, we lived through 9-11, how did this happen?
- 19:27Exactly.
- 19:28And understand, I went to bed at 11 o'clock Friday night, October 6.
- 19:35I woke up less than two hours later and the world had completely changed.
- 19:41And that's what, when I gave my talk, these things will happen as these characters talked
- 19:46about in a Hemingway novel.
- 19:47How did you go bankrupt?
- 19:48And the one guy says, well, I went bankrupt two ways.
- 19:52I went bankrupt gradually and suddenly.
- 19:54And I think this is how the prophecies that we have in the Bible will unfold.
- 19:59It will be gradual, almost imperceptible, then all of a sudden, where did that come from?
- 20:04But look at what it's happened in our culture, Dave, you do worldview matters.
- 20:09Look at what happened in our culture.
- 20:10It seems like all of a sudden, we have this problem with the LGBTQ transgender, this and
- 20:18that cultural Marxism, delusion, the stuff.
- 20:22And it's like it came suddenly, didn't it, now it was gradual for a long time.
- 20:28Well, John, I just want to clarify something.
- 20:30When I said summer, maybe wondering if this was an inside job in Israel, it didn't mean
- 20:34Israel did it.
- 20:35It mean there were spies or Palestinians or others that got in somehow, they were in Israel
- 20:43and they either got jobs or how long this took, who knows how long this took to plan
- 20:50and be carried out.
- 20:51Go to Psalm 83, which says, God do not remain quiet, do not be silent, do not be still
- 20:58oh God, for behold, your enemies make an uproar.
- 21:02And those who hate you have exalted themselves, they make shrewd plans against your people and
- 21:09conspire together against your treasured ones.
- 21:13They have said, come and let us wipe them out as a nation that the name of Israel be remembered
- 21:19no more, for they have conspired together with one mind against you, they make a covenant
- 21:26and then it goes on.
- 21:27That's from Psalm 83, very prophetic, whether it's specific to our times now, you can't deny
- 21:33this is happening.
- 21:34Do you want to comment on that before we continue?
- 21:36It is specific, it is specific to our times and I understand what you meant.
- 21:40Some people are saying the government is really government plan this.
- 21:42That's why I'm seeing these videos going around.
- 21:46I think we need to be very careful about this and give credit to the Iranians or very
- 21:51intelligent people.
- 21:53As I was discussing with someone in Israel this morning, the Iranians, you know, they
- 21:57claim that they invented chess and by the way, the follow on is the Russians perfected
- 22:02it.
- 22:03That's why we have some of the problems in the world that we do today.
- 22:05And then I said, well, did the Iranians really invented or did they just make you think
- 22:10they invented it?
- 22:12But there clearly was some kind of attack that blinded people.
- 22:16It was a holiday thing.
- 22:18They were unprepared, but it was very difficult over the geographic region to get Israel
- 22:24relies on a lot on reserves.
- 22:26The people had to drive sometimes three, four hours to get there to help as an army reserve
- 22:30person.
- 22:31And a lot were on holiday.
- 22:33So there's a lot of accountability that needs to take place.
- 22:37This was well timed.
- 22:38I'm not sure that the rocket attacks that happened in the past were not preparatory to
- 22:43this operation.
- 22:44In other words, they threw the rockets in there to weaken the fence and also to see how
- 22:50the people reacted.
- 22:51And they knew everybody went to their safe room.
- 22:54And they knew that the people were largely unarmed.
- 22:56They're peaceful people in the cabuits as in that type of thing.
- 23:00They're soft.
- 23:01You could call them soft targets.
- 23:03And what I mean, my feed is full.
- 23:06I believe if you go to Israel 365, they have a PDF document you can get of all the people
- 23:12that have been killed.
- 23:13It's whole families, father, mother, three beautiful young daughters killed, slaughtered.
- 23:20There was one instance where they found the parents in an embrace outside of the safe
- 23:26room.
- 23:27They had fought off the terrace, been killed.
- 23:28And I then believe their bodies burned.
- 23:30They were found in an embrace.
- 23:33And then 14 hours later, somebody went after they were found, went to the safe room and
- 23:38found their 14-month-old twins still there, growing up now with no parents.
- 23:44100 hostages, more than 100 hostages have been taken to Gaza.
- 23:50The last I saw the 25 Americans who were in this area of Israel have been killed.
- 23:54And there are probably at least 11 Americans that are being held hostage in Gaza by Hamas.
- 24:00And that makes it the operation to go in very difficult.
- 24:04You don't want to do anything to kill hostages, but at this point, you have to do the best
- 24:10you can because you have a bigger mission involved.
- 24:13And it's sad to say, but the pictures are horrific.
- 24:17I saw it.
- 24:18I don't have enough time before the break, but saw a picture of a young gal who was brought
- 24:23in in a vehicle she was taken out of the back.
- 24:26And I noticed that in the crotch area of her pants, she was being pushed in, that it
- 24:32was soiled.
- 24:33Yep.
- 24:34I saw that.
- 24:35And I thought, oh, she must have lost her mouth, control of her bowels being so scared.
- 24:42She was brutally raped.
- 24:45That was blood from being raped.
- 24:47And then she was thrown in the back of that military vehicle and shot and killed.
- 24:54This is, there was a party down there and they were dancing to some Hindu God or something
- 25:00with a bunch of new age people.
- 25:03There were about a thousand there, at least 250 bodies from that have been filed.
- 25:07I saw a picture of them.
- 25:08They were stacked in a tent, so I've seen pictures of trailers of body bags with baby
- 25:13body bags.
- 25:14You want body bags with babies in them, folks.
- 25:18And listen, whether the beheaded or not, the fact of the matter is this is a crime against
- 25:21humanity and we need to focus on that.
- 25:23We're evil.
- 25:24Now, we only have a couple minutes left.
- 25:27Let's talk about briefly the historical ignorance, only a day after the Hamas terrorists
- 25:32infiltrated Israel and wreaked havoc there.
- 25:36Pro-Palestine protesters took to the streets in America and Toronto and London.
- 25:42But in DC, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Philadelphia, Harvard University
- 25:48and Cambridge.
- 25:49Also Black Lives Matter in Chicago tweeted an image.
- 25:52I stand with Palestine.
- 25:54So the New York City protests organized by Democrat, Socialists, so John, in our country,
- 26:00there are people celebrating this.
- 26:02We only have two and a half minutes, roughly, please your quick thoughts.
- 26:06So this is anti-Semitism, anti-Jewish hatred on display, on an epic scale.
- 26:13This is very, very concerning to me.
- 26:15I would recommend you follow or get Lovie Melanox book on the rise of the new anti-Semitism
- 26:21by in his website, the New Anti-Semitism, check that out, it will give you some information.
- 26:27But where does this go?
- 26:28Right now, you know, we're in the midst of this operation in Gaza.
- 26:31We have a carrier battle group that's there.
- 26:34I'm getting and tell reports that has been given anti-tank, anti-ship missiles to take
- 26:43out our ships that are there in the Eastern Mediterranean, and they've been given those
- 26:49by Russia.
- 26:51Syria has threatened to come into the war, the IDF issued a statement that said, if you
- 26:58come in, we will take out the Assad regime, and we will destroy Damascus.
- 27:03Now that raises a Bible prophecy thing, in Isaiah 17, it says, at some point, I think
- 27:09this is a future prophecy, Damascus will cease from being a city, Damascus, which tells
- 27:15itself, is the longest continuously occupied city on planet Earth.
- 27:20We'll cease from being a city now, is are we at that time?
- 27:22I don't know.
- 27:23We're living in biblical times.
- 27:25I don't think we need to be arguing right now about this Bible prophecy or that Bible
- 27:33prophecy.
- 27:34We can talk about it.
- 27:35I will tell you, in the conservative community of so-called Christians in America, they
- 27:40are blaming people who believe in Bible prophecy that this is all of our fault.
- 27:47I can show you the tweets.
- 27:49Oh my God.
- 27:50They take a picture of who says, we need to support Israel.
- 27:54These Christians are trying to bring Armageddon.
- 27:56They're the ones who are responsible for this, so it's just like the Islamists do.
- 28:01It's the Saturday people first, then the Sunday people.
- 28:06Even Christians are doing this.
- 28:08This is going to be incredibly divisive in the church.
- 28:11Where does this go from here?
- 28:12I think we're seeing that there's going to be, the question is, they're going to be
- 28:17a war in the North.
- 28:18This is the fear.
- 28:20And they'll, they have many more rockets, Iron Dome can't defend to them.
- 28:24People have been told in parts of Israel to leave their homes and go to the South.
- 28:29There have been pictures I've just seen recently on Twitter, as we're recording this of
- 28:36caravans of Muslim women and children and vans and that type of thing, leaving northern
- 28:42Israel going to Jordan.
- 28:44Are they evacuating this for coming war?
- 28:47I think it's inevitable at this point, and I think that what I would encourage the church
- 28:52to do right now is this is a biblical moment.
- 28:56And I think we need to stand for Israel.
- 28:59This is not the countenance.
- 29:01Everything that Israel has ever done, that's not the point.
- 29:05But in the Bible, we are commanded to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
- 29:09The God of the Bible and Jesus Christ are jealous, jealous for Zion.
- 29:17And we need to understand that this is a biblical moment where the church has to understand
- 29:23the apocryphal nature, the end time nature and the revealing nature of all these things
- 29:29that are going to happen that are centered around Israel.
- 29:33This isn't, as I said, listen, I did a conference and we're out of time, John.
- 29:39We have to wrap it up.
- 29:41We will do this again.
- 29:42I know it goes by so fast.
- 29:44Well, I appreciate it.
- 29:47We can go on for hours and I thank you for all the research you do.
- 29:50You look up that interview guys with John on his website on the YouTube channel.
- 29:55Blessings, brother.
- 29:56Thank you, David.
- 29:57All right, friends.
- 29:58Dr. J.B. Hickson, we'll talk a little bit more about Israel and his take and we'll
- 30:03talk about his brand new book, The Spirit of the False Profits.
- 30:07So J.B.
- 30:08Tomorrow, God bless you guys and as always, keep speaking the truth about things that matter.
