- 0:08Speaker 2: Welcome everyone to the Prophecy Watchers Podcast. I am here
- 0:11Speaker 2: in studio with Olivia Melnick. Welcome Olivier.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Well, thank you for having me on the show.
- 0:16Speaker 2: And we're going to be talking about a very important topic.
- 0:18Speaker 2: And really before we do, I want to remind everybody
- 0:22Speaker 2: about our upcoming Prophecy conference in Orlando, Florida. I mean,
- 0:27Speaker 2: who wouldn't want to go to Orlando and basically March first,
- 0:31Speaker 2: I mean especially those in the north. Good time of
- 0:34Speaker 2: the year, Yeah, good time of the year to be
- 0:36Speaker 2: there and Orlando Prophecysma dot com. We have over twenty
- 0:38Speaker 2: speakers that are going to be there. You can go
- 0:41Speaker 2: to the website and register, you can go to see
- 0:43Speaker 2: all who's speaking there and just be on look out.
- 0:46Speaker 2: We have a lot going on. We have another conference
- 0:47Speaker 2: coming up in June in Colora Springs, Olivia. You're going
- 0:51Speaker 2: to be there on that one. And so again lot's
- 0:53Speaker 2: going on everybody. And the topic today, which we think
- 0:56Speaker 2: is extremely important is you know, if we talk about
- 1:00Speaker 2: anti semitism, sometimes people can be maybe a little shocked
- 1:04Speaker 2: by that. Oh that's that's something I'm not really interested in.
- 1:06Speaker 2: But maybe let's let's let's phrase it in a in
- 1:09Speaker 2: a positive way for a moment. How would we instead
- 1:12Speaker 2: of being anti something, what would be what would be
- 1:15Speaker 2: the positive?
- 1:16Speaker 1: Uh? Well, the opposite of anti Semitism is philo Semitism,
- 1:21Speaker 1: which means, you know, loving the Jews. But what's interesting, Mando,
- 1:26Speaker 1: is that, uh, the word Semite there basically comes from
- 1:30Speaker 1: the descendants of Shem, you know, the the the one
- 1:32Speaker 1: of the three sons of Noah. And uh, when you
- 1:36Speaker 1: use the word Semite or Semitic, you know from Semitic descent,
- 1:41Speaker 1: you are describing Jews and Arabs. But when you use
- 1:45Speaker 1: the word anti Semitic, it's only for Jews.
- 1:49Speaker 2: I just just no, no, I'm glad you did that
- 1:51Speaker 2: because I actually had that question this week. You know,
- 1:53Speaker 2: we get a lot of questions, and somebody had written
- 1:55Speaker 2: in and asked, well, where where does this come from?
- 1:57Speaker 2: You know, when they looked it up, they saw what
- 1:59Speaker 2: you said was, you know, one of the sons of
- 2:01Speaker 2: no And I said, well again, it's you have the way,
- 2:03Speaker 2: you have the etymology of the word, but then you
- 2:06Speaker 2: have the use of the word, and the use is
- 2:08Speaker 2: only of Jewish people, because you know, in languages you
- 2:12Speaker 2: talk about Semitic languages, you know, Hebrew and Arabic and
- 2:15Speaker 2: other things.
- 2:15Speaker 1: But and anti Semitism, by the way, the word itself
- 2:19Speaker 1: is fairly recent. It's less than two hundred years old.
- 2:22Speaker 1: I think it was. It was coined in eighteen sixty
- 2:25Speaker 1: seven by a German guy by the name of Willem Mahr,
- 2:29Speaker 1: who just decided to use the word to explain how
- 2:33Speaker 1: people could, you know, could protect themselves from this Jewish race.
- 2:36Speaker 1: And so it was anti Semitism moose in German. And
- 2:40Speaker 1: that's the first time it was used, and then you know,
- 2:43Speaker 1: it got a life of its own, and it's just
- 2:45Speaker 1: it is what it is now. But anti Semitism as
- 2:47Speaker 1: a concepts, as a form of hatred against the Jews,
- 2:51Speaker 1: has existed since you can you can make a case
- 2:55Speaker 1: since the.
- 2:55Speaker 2: First Jew, since the first Jew, you know. And it's
- 2:58Speaker 2: interesting too that I like what you said earlier, just
- 3:00Speaker 2: the idea of I think if we were anti Semitism
- 3:04Speaker 2: is again is against or it's anti something. But to
- 3:07Speaker 2: be even a supporter of Israel or pro Israel or
- 3:10Speaker 2: a lover of Israel, let's talk about that. For a
- 3:13Speaker 2: moment in the sense of as a Christian who loves
- 3:17Speaker 2: the Scripture, who believes the Bible, why should we Why
- 3:23Speaker 2: should our default? Okay, and that doesn't mean we endorse
- 3:25Speaker 2: everything every Jew has ever done, just like we would
- 3:27Speaker 2: endorse what every Gentile has ever done, or Italian or Chinese.
- 3:33Speaker 2: But why should the default for a biblical, spirit filled
- 3:36Speaker 2: born again Christian? Why should our default be in a
- 3:40Speaker 2: support of Israel?
- 3:42Speaker 1: Good question. I think it starts with your approach to
- 3:46Speaker 1: the Bible itself. Anybody who has an allegorical, symbolic approach
- 3:51Speaker 1: to the Bible that can mean whatever you want it
- 3:53Speaker 1: to mean on a different day or to different people,
- 3:57Speaker 1: theyre going to have a lot of trouble reconciling a
- 3:59Speaker 1: lot of past. But if you take a grammatical, historical
- 4:03Speaker 1: approach to the Bible and pay attention to the pay
- 4:06Speaker 1: attention to the context, you cannot avoid the fact that
- 4:10Speaker 1: Israel is all over the Bible and God as a
- 4:13Speaker 1: plan for mankind that revolves around the Jewish people. You know,
- 4:17Speaker 1: often tell people look at the First Book of the Bible,
- 4:20Speaker 1: fifty chapters in Genesis, the first book of the Bible,
- 4:24Speaker 1: eleven chapters on mankind and thirty nine chapters on Israel.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Does that tell you anything? Do you think God wants
- 4:32Speaker 1: to maybe from the word go give us an idea
- 4:36Speaker 1: that there is going to put an emphasis on the
- 4:38Speaker 1: Jewish people, not because we're better, not because we're more numerous. Actually,
- 4:43Speaker 1: in his word he says, I chose you not because
- 4:45Speaker 1: you are numerous, you're small people, but because of you. Know,
- 4:48Speaker 1: that's what I want to do. I want to use
- 4:50Speaker 1: you to be elect to the nations. Mind you, we
- 4:52Speaker 1: haven't done a very good job at that. That's for
- 4:54Speaker 1: another time.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Maybe, well you know, to me, it's you know, it's fascinating.
- 4:59Speaker 2: As said, it comes back to the Bible. I mean
- 5:01Speaker 2: John four twenty two, Jesus is speaking to this Mearitan woman.
- 5:05Speaker 2: He goes, you don't you don't I have right here?
- 5:08Speaker 2: You worship what you do not know? We know what
- 5:10Speaker 2: we worship for salvation is of the Jews. I think
- 5:13Speaker 2: as well that Paul addresses this in Romans nine, where
- 5:18Speaker 2: he says, well, what advantage does it you have?
- 5:20Speaker 1: Oh?
- 5:20Speaker 2: They have all kinds of advantages that that that God
- 5:22Speaker 2: gave them. But again he looked at the world and
- 5:27Speaker 2: he decided I'm going to send my son and of
- 5:29Speaker 2: course an eternity past, and he chose Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
- 5:33Speaker 2: But as we come down the question, I think or
- 5:36Speaker 2: that that for me in my mind is Jesus has
- 5:39Speaker 2: Jewish or when he was here, Okay, Jewish blood, is
- 5:43Speaker 2: Jewish dna in his humanity.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Is the only Jew kept the six hundred and thirteen
- 5:49Speaker 1: Commandments perfectly? Yep.
- 5:58Speaker 2: Why wouldn't we love Jesus our savior, who I would
- 6:02Speaker 2: say he still is Jewish and his Jewish family, his
- 6:06Speaker 2: Jewish brothren, Jesus. Did Jesus hate the Jews? Did Jesus
- 6:09Speaker 2: hate the Jews?
- 6:10Speaker 1: Of course not, of course not. Now it's interesting you
- 6:13Speaker 1: had said that, because I was having a conversation with
- 6:15Speaker 1: our good friend Indy Woods this morning talking about the
- 6:18Speaker 1: Synagogue of Satan and of your Father the Devil. And
- 6:21Speaker 1: when people tell me like, well, you know, like you know,
- 6:23Speaker 1: you know, there's obviously the New Testament is anti Semitic,
- 6:27Speaker 1: and you know there's you know, there's a case to
- 6:29Speaker 1: be made for hating the Jews. I have to bring
- 6:32Speaker 1: people back to the reality that those passages they're speaking,
- 6:37Speaker 1: whoever speaks to these people they are Jewish, Yes, But
- 6:40Speaker 1: they're speaking to sinners who are missing the mark first,
- 6:45Speaker 1: who happened to be Jewish. Second, their ethnicity has no
- 6:49Speaker 1: bearing on their sin. But that's the way that the
- 6:52Speaker 1: world is looking the other way. They believe today that
- 6:55Speaker 1: the ethnicity of the Jewish people is the cause of
- 6:59Speaker 1: their sin and that's why we should destroy them.
- 7:01Speaker 2: You know, that's a great point because I mean, it's
- 7:04Speaker 2: a definition. Anti anti Semitism is racism, and when we
- 7:07Speaker 2: talk about racism, it's it's stereotyping a certain person automatically,
- 7:11Speaker 2: just by again their genetics or whatever. So in that regard,
- 7:15Speaker 2: you hear people saying, well, well, what about George Soros. Okay,
- 7:19Speaker 2: he's a sinful Jewish person. What about Bill Clinton? He's
- 7:23Speaker 2: a sinful gentile person. So just just to say that.
- 7:26Speaker 1: About you and me, we've been forgiven.
- 7:31Speaker 2: But you know, you know what, I'm actually fifty percent French,
- 7:33Speaker 2: so you're I'm sorry, so we're we're all my families
- 7:39Speaker 2: from the south of France. But the so we're sinful
- 7:43Speaker 2: French people. Or you know, I got a part Hispanic,
- 7:46Speaker 2: so what whatever. But to say that just because somebody
- 7:48Speaker 2: has this ethnic distinction, now all of a sudden automatically
- 7:51Speaker 2: abc D. See that's racism, right of course.
- 7:54Speaker 1: And again we are sinners first, and we happen to
- 7:57Speaker 1: be whatever ethnicity we come from, and in that that
- 8:00Speaker 1: shouldn't have no bearing on our sin We don't need
- 8:03Speaker 1: ethnicity or or any kind of background to be sentnered
- 8:07Speaker 1: who is sinners from birth.
- 8:09Speaker 2: But let's let's talk about give us you know, the
- 8:11Speaker 2: audience here who might not know kind of some of
- 8:14Speaker 2: the things. First of all, tell them I would like
- 8:16Speaker 2: them to how can I find you? You know, how
- 8:19Speaker 2: can I find you online to learn more about your ministry?
- 8:21Speaker 2: And then let's talk about some of the books that
- 8:23Speaker 2: you've written up until this current book that you dis got.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Well, I post a lot of information on two sites.
- 8:29Speaker 1: One is where I put my articles. It's like it's
- 8:33Speaker 1: new anti Semitism dot com. And also I've got a
- 8:38Speaker 1: lot of videos, devotional videos, videos on anti Semitism and
- 8:42Speaker 1: times prophecy on my YouTube channel, Olivia Melnick Today through
- 8:46Speaker 1: Jewish Eyes.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're I mean, you're obviously a prophecy expert
- 8:48Speaker 2: in that regard to so you talk about a broad things,
- 8:50Speaker 2: but certainly Israel.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Right, right, So that's they can find in my books
- 8:55Speaker 1: are on Amazon. Yeah, so and you carry something.
- 8:58Speaker 2: Yeah and our yeah, in our lah store. So yes,
- 9:01Speaker 2: you buy from us not and thank you for that.
- 9:04Speaker 2: So let's talk about that. The The End Times Anti Semitism.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Uh you what what did you do there in that book?
- 9:11Speaker 1: What do you antis? Okay? I'm sorry? Uh okay. En
- 9:14Speaker 1: Times Anti Semitism is is two books prior to this
- 9:18Speaker 1: one that I just published this year, n Times Anti
- 9:21Speaker 1: Semitism is. It's an overview of the history of anti
- 9:26Speaker 1: Semitism from basically, I speak a little bit about, you know,
- 9:30Speaker 1: Hayman and Pharaoh did not know Joseph and the Amelokites.
- 9:35Speaker 1: And then I move and move forward to the anti
- 9:39Speaker 1: nesse and Church fathers, the early church fathers who took
- 9:42Speaker 1: the scriptures and and and allegorized and and decided that,
- 9:46Speaker 1: you know, they were starting to slowly distance themselves from
- 9:48Speaker 1: the Jews. And that's what I call the the first
- 9:53Speaker 1: kind of anti Simpism, the theological anti Judaism. It was
- 9:56Speaker 1: not really against the Jews, but it was like us
- 9:58Speaker 1: and them, we you know. So I I cover theological
- 10:01Speaker 1: anti anti Judaism, I cover classical anti semitism, racial anti semitism,
- 10:06Speaker 1: which is when you know what what led UH the
- 10:11Speaker 1: Nazis to kill six million Jews. Then we move to
- 10:14Speaker 1: the new anti Semitism and times anti Semitism is where
- 10:17Speaker 1: we are right now, and I cover that too, and
- 10:20Speaker 1: and even talk about the last UH, the last chapter
- 10:23Speaker 1: which hasn't been written yet. What's been written but it
- 10:25Speaker 1: hasn't been played, is the uh tribulation anti Semitism. So
- 10:30Speaker 1: I do an overview in that book of of of
- 10:33Speaker 1: all those chapters in the history of anti Semitism, some
- 10:38Speaker 1: of them past, some of them present, and some of
- 10:39Speaker 1: them future. And I spend a little time also UH
- 10:44Speaker 1: sharing with Christians how they can make a difference and
- 10:49Speaker 1: fight it and speak up and and and against anti
- 10:52Speaker 1: Semitism and and build bridges. You can use anti semitism
- 10:56Speaker 1: when you fight it properly to build bridges between Christians
- 10:59Speaker 1: and a Jewish unity.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Right exactly. I mean, that's that seems to me. You know,
- 11:04Speaker 2: you know this, but you know, my undergrad is in
- 11:05Speaker 2: Jewish study, so we studied a lot of Jewish history
- 11:07Speaker 2: and Moody, and but to me, it was fascinating to
- 11:11Speaker 2: watch how the the reality of church persecution and anti
- 11:19Speaker 2: Semitism and how that closed the bridge, I mean shut
- 11:23Speaker 2: that destroyed the bridge, burned the bridge. Yeah, there's nothing there.
- 11:27Speaker 2: And and the goal here, I mean one of the
- 11:29Speaker 2: reasons why we're talking about this is because, you know,
- 11:33Speaker 2: October seventh, it's kind of going to be a new day.
- 11:36Speaker 2: It's going to be a new date, like like America
- 11:38Speaker 2: has September eleventh, you know, for Israel, certainly there's a
- 11:41Speaker 2: lot of dates of wars, but something October seventh to
- 11:47Speaker 2: talk about it.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Well, October seventh, for if there's anybody in your audience
- 11:53Speaker 1: not aware of what took place is basically a massive
- 11:56Speaker 1: terrorist attack from the Gaza strip in southern and in
- 12:00Speaker 1: the southwest part of Israel, moving into Israel and going
- 12:05Speaker 1: into you know, seven different kibut seem the community, the
- 12:12Speaker 1: commune where Jewish people live together and work together, and
- 12:15Speaker 1: also some private homes.
- 12:16Speaker 2: And there was a party going on, and there.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Was also that forgot, Yeah, I forgot about that. The concert,
- 12:22Speaker 1: the Peace Concert to Peace Concert, a Peace concert two
- 12:25Speaker 1: hundred and sixty. And what's interesting is that at that
- 12:28Speaker 1: concert there were a lot of people that were Jewish
- 12:30Speaker 1: people that were not necessarily in favor of everything that
- 12:33Speaker 1: Israel is standing for kind of progazza. Many of them
- 12:36Speaker 1: print out progressive but pro Palestinic pros two state solution
- 12:41Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter you're Jewish, you're gone. And so
- 12:45Speaker 1: originally fourteen hundred people twelve hundred. Now about a week ago,
- 12:49Speaker 1: the Israeli government brought it down to twelve hundred because
- 12:51Speaker 1: they were able to recognize the bodies better, which it's
- 12:54Speaker 1: amazing to me, you know. I bring it up because
- 12:57Speaker 1: it shows the spirit of of the Israeli government and
- 13:02Speaker 1: the idea. They went for fourteen hundred, which was really bad,
- 13:05Speaker 1: the highest, the highest Jewish casualty since the Holocaust. But
- 13:10Speaker 1: then they revised it to twelve hundred.
- 13:12Speaker 2: It didn't inflate it.
- 13:13Speaker 1: They did inflate it. The hospital that got the missile
- 13:16Speaker 1: that fell on the hospital that you know, Israel was
- 13:18Speaker 1: accused of it, and of course very quickly we found
- 13:20Speaker 1: out there was you know, a dud that fell on
- 13:23Speaker 1: the hospital from Hamas. They said that originally five hundred
- 13:26Speaker 1: people died and the hospital was destroyed and it was Israel.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Well it was actually the parking lot and not five
- 13:33Speaker 1: hundred people died. But it doesn't matter because they always
- 13:35Speaker 1: inflate and Israel in the midst of their tragedy, revised
- 13:38Speaker 1: their numbers to be more accurate.
- 13:40Speaker 2: It's amazing the entire different perspective, even as it relates
- 13:44Speaker 2: to the to the way that the war is handled
- 13:47Speaker 2: and other things. I mean, here, do you have a
- 13:49Speaker 2: specific target of just innocent people? You know, again, as
- 13:54Speaker 2: we said, you know, the killing, the butchering, the beheading,
- 13:57Speaker 2: the putting babies and ovens. I mean sick, it's wicked,
- 14:00Speaker 2: it's evil. And but let's what's the source of it?
- 14:05Speaker 2: What's the source of this?
- 14:07Speaker 1: Satan?
- 14:08Speaker 2: Satan?
- 14:08Speaker 1: Satan is you know, in my definition of anti Semitism, uh,
- 14:14Speaker 1: I give satan is is one second of fame because
- 14:17Speaker 1: I mentioned the demonic aspect of the satanic aspect of
- 14:21Speaker 1: anti Semitism. Anti Semitism is the irrational and satanic hatred
- 14:27Speaker 1: of the Jewish people and Israel, characterized by thoughts, words,
- 14:34Speaker 1: and or deeds against them. And you see this over
- 14:37Speaker 1: over the centuries, and and the question you could ask
- 14:40Speaker 1: is why is Satan so hell bent? I should say, maybe,
- 14:44Speaker 1: you know, hell bent on on on going after the Jews?
- 14:48Speaker 1: What what what? What does he have against the Jews. Well,
- 14:50Speaker 1: if you look at at the final chapter. You know
- 14:54Speaker 1: what's going to happen, you know in in you know
- 14:56Speaker 1: the the the the end times, what which we're fast approaching. Uh,
- 15:01Speaker 1: the last seven years known as the Great Tribulation, also
- 15:03Speaker 1: known as the time of Jacob's Trouble, where God is
- 15:06Speaker 1: going to be disciplining Israel and chastising Israel.
- 15:11Speaker 2: Uh.
- 15:11Speaker 1: What's going to happen is that at the end of
- 15:13Speaker 1: that tribulation, the Jewish people who are going to survive
- 15:18Speaker 1: will call on your shoe. Are going like, you know,
- 15:21Speaker 1: we missed our fathers missed him at the first coming.
- 15:25Speaker 1: He is the Messiah. We believe it. And they're gonna say,
- 15:27Speaker 1: blessed is he who comes in the name of the
- 15:29Speaker 1: Lord Barham. Don't I Jesus said, you should have said
- 15:33Speaker 1: you will not see me again until you say that
- 15:35Speaker 1: those words. So what a lot of Christians don't They
- 15:38Speaker 1: don't necessarily connect the dots, but they need to understand this.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Jesus is not coming back when all the gentiles are
- 15:45Speaker 1: saved and in all the numbers, Jesus is coming back
- 15:49Speaker 1: when Israel calls him to return. And when he returns,
- 15:55Speaker 1: Satan goes unemployed and he doesn't like where it's being
- 15:59Speaker 1: said for or retirement. It's not. It's not ready club men.
- 16:03Speaker 1: So he wants to stop it or postpone it. And
- 16:06Speaker 1: that's what he's been doing. So he's been beyond anti
- 16:09Speaker 1: Semitism for for for millennia, and and he keeps reinventing
- 16:17Speaker 1: or repackaging, i should say repackaging anti Semitism. So it
- 16:20Speaker 1: comes from it comes from, you know, from from Hollywood,
- 16:24Speaker 1: from academia, from governments, from from individuals, from from churches,
- 16:30Speaker 1: from within the church. I mean, there's a case to
- 16:33Speaker 1: be made for anti symity, for replacement theology, which is
- 16:37Speaker 1: the false theology claiming that the Church has replaced Israel
- 16:40Speaker 1: and the promises of God. There's a case to be
- 16:43Speaker 1: medt that this is actually anti Semitic because it's basically
- 16:46Speaker 1: pushing the Jesus side. And if you push the Jesus side,
- 16:49Speaker 1: they're not no longer in God's plan, then eventually we
- 16:51Speaker 1: can get rid of them.
- 16:52Speaker 2: Yeah, it's certainly. I mean they're if you think about
- 16:55Speaker 2: a Christian who that they don't like replacement theology. They
- 16:58Speaker 2: like the term fulfillment theology. But regardless, it's the same, different,
- 17:01Speaker 2: it's the same. It's the same difference. But you know,
- 17:03Speaker 2: for them, we're not saying either that anybody that would
- 17:07Speaker 2: be uh replacement diologions that they're embracing the murder of
- 17:11Speaker 2: Jewish people. Not necessarily, no, no. But it's interesting though
- 17:17Speaker 2: that what people don't realize is that theology, the subtle
- 17:21Speaker 2: nature of how it contributes to the full blown or
- 17:24Speaker 2: even the medium blown ideas of anti Semitism. For sure.
- 17:28Speaker 1: Well, I think they're facilitating the process. Yeah, exactly. And
- 17:31Speaker 1: then you can take you you take replacement theology, and
- 17:36Speaker 1: I think that, you know, I called it that in
- 17:38Speaker 1: one of my of my messages. Christian Palestinianism is replacement
- 17:42Speaker 1: theology on steroids. Yep. It's like making Israel Palestine, making
- 17:48Speaker 1: the Jesus a Palestinian, not a Jew, and then changing everything.
- 17:53Speaker 1: I think that. I don't know if you ever have
- 17:54Speaker 1: had him on your show, but the expert on Christian
- 17:57Speaker 1: Palastianism is Paul Wilkinson. Oh you know, no, he's a
- 18:00Speaker 1: he's a British guy. Is he's usually the pre tributes.
- 18:05Speaker 1: He's the expert on that anyway. But so this there's
- 18:10Speaker 1: what was the usual question, Well, you know.
- 18:12Speaker 2: We're just we're kind of just laying the foundation, because
- 18:14Speaker 2: where I do want to go is in your new book,
- 18:17Speaker 2: the normalization of anti Semitism, when the oldest hatred becomes
- 18:21Speaker 2: a new normal. Let's let's talk about that for a minute,
- 18:24Speaker 2: because you know in the book, how do you define normalization?
- 18:28Speaker 1: Normalization is let me read it so it's it's not complicated.
- 18:34Speaker 1: Normalization is the process by which something previously considered abnormal
- 18:38Speaker 1: or unacceptable becomes perceived as normal. No, so normalization in
- 18:43Speaker 1: a vacuum is not necessarily bad. The normalization of diplomatic
- 18:47Speaker 1: ties between Saudi Arabia and Israel, that's good, would be
- 18:50Speaker 1: a good thing, okay. But normalization of anti Semitism, that's
- 18:55Speaker 1: an oxymoron. And that's that's I think where we are today.
- 18:59Speaker 2: The the.
- 19:02Speaker 1: Like I mentioned to you in another conversation, the Palestinian narrative,
- 19:09Speaker 1: the agenda of the PLO and Arafat and the people
- 19:13Speaker 1: in Fata and Hamas and as. At first, it was like,
- 19:18Speaker 1: you know, it got some pushback in the sixties, and eventually,
- 19:20Speaker 1: you know, pushing it enough and enough and enough people
- 19:23Speaker 1: bought the lie. And now they're basically in agreement that
- 19:27Speaker 1: you know, the Palestinians are the poor, the poor victims.
- 19:31Speaker 1: The new anti Semitism has switched to victims and the perpetrators,
- 19:34Speaker 1: the Israelis are the new Nazis and the ad least
- 19:37Speaker 1: and the Palestinians are the poor victims. And now the
- 19:40Speaker 1: world is buying it, and I think especially in the
- 19:43Speaker 1: young people. And then as we see right now, the
- 19:45Speaker 1: young people are completely blinded to the truth by their
- 19:50Speaker 1: search for social justice.
- 19:51Speaker 2: You know, and I will say this that do I
- 19:54Speaker 2: believe the Palestinians are victims?
- 19:57Speaker 1: Absolutely?
- 19:58Speaker 2: Oh yes, they're victims of Hamas absolutely. I mean they
- 20:01Speaker 2: You think about that, the billions and billions and billions
- 20:04Speaker 2: of dollars that has come in, and I mean these
- 20:06Speaker 2: people people just need to be honest. That again, no
- 20:10Speaker 2: one's saying his rules perfect, but the fact of the
- 20:12Speaker 2: matter is the billions of dollars come in. You know,
- 20:15Speaker 2: you have the Hamas leadership living in and Cutter and
- 20:18Speaker 2: other places. They're living in these penthouses. I mean, where's
- 20:20Speaker 2: that money coming from. It's coming from the aid that's
- 20:23Speaker 2: been given. And instead of I read run report where
- 20:27Speaker 2: the European Union won in and they were putting in
- 20:29Speaker 2: pipes for water and you know, for infrastructure. And then
- 20:32Speaker 2: as soon as they left, Hamas was digging up and
- 20:35Speaker 2: using the pipes for rocket launchers. And so you have
- 20:39Speaker 2: again you have a lot of good from the world
- 20:43Speaker 2: trying to help, but the people there, they're not getting helped. No.
- 20:46Speaker 1: And the question I have, Mundo, is what is the world?
- 20:50Speaker 1: You know, when you think about it, do you think
- 20:52Speaker 1: the people sending the money and sending the sending the
- 20:55Speaker 1: materials for the infrastructure you think they don't? If you
- 20:58Speaker 1: and I find yeah, exactly. If you and I know
- 21:01Speaker 1: that they're doing what they're doing, those governments sending billions
- 21:04Speaker 1: of dollars, then know as well. So they become co
- 21:07Speaker 1: perpetrators with Hamas. I know it sounds terrible, but they
- 21:11Speaker 1: become coo perpetrators and they can posture all day. Want
- 21:14Speaker 1: we care about the Palestini costs.
- 21:15Speaker 2: They don't. If they do, they would there be some
- 21:17Speaker 2: level of accountability by the United Nations. But people are
- 21:20Speaker 2: getting bought off. It's again, it comes back to the
- 21:22Speaker 2: love of money, as we know scripture does. But you know,
- 21:25Speaker 2: you know one of the things that you do in
- 21:27Speaker 2: the book, the different stages in the normalization, I really
- 21:31Speaker 2: I want this is powerful to me help people understand,
- 21:35Speaker 2: because if they understand the stages, all of us can
- 21:39Speaker 2: look inward and say, oh wow, I didn't realize that
- 21:45Speaker 2: maybe in my own mind or my own default position
- 21:49Speaker 2: is participating in some of these stages.
- 21:51Speaker 1: Talk about that, well, the ten stages. It's very it's
- 21:59Speaker 1: very interesting because when I work on the book, it
- 22:02Speaker 1: took me a while to do my research and write
- 22:05Speaker 1: the book, and then it was published I think, you know,
- 22:08Speaker 1: early spring of twenty twenty three. And here are the
- 22:12Speaker 1: ten stages that I identify. Some of them come from
- 22:16Speaker 1: the previous one. They go in order, but they also
- 22:18Speaker 1: continue and overlap, so it's not a clear shut. It
- 22:20Speaker 1: stops the next one it stops.
- 22:22Speaker 2: There's definitely a progression of intensity.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely. So we start with apathy, which continues all
- 22:28Speaker 1: the way through. So let me read you the ten
- 22:31Speaker 1: and I'll comment on that apathy, lack of education, law
- 22:35Speaker 1: or incorrect reporting, desensitization, lack of accountability, empowerment, demonization of
- 22:42Speaker 1: the defenders, persecution of the Jews and the defenders, encouragement
- 22:46Speaker 1: to kill and mass murder of Jews. And I'm going
- 22:51Speaker 1: to need to do I'm going to need to revise
- 22:54Speaker 1: my book because until October seventh. I it's in the
- 22:58Speaker 1: book it says all nine are in place, the only
- 23:01Speaker 1: one that hasn't been in place yet but will come
- 23:04Speaker 1: in place. When I'm thinking, probably during the tribulation is
- 23:08Speaker 1: the mass murder of Jews? Well, twelve hundred Jews in
- 23:12Speaker 1: a couple of hours on October seventh is a mass
- 23:15Speaker 1: murder of Jews? What does that amount to in American lives?
- 23:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean if you do the proportion, it would
- 23:20Speaker 2: be like America losing over fifty thousand in one in
- 23:23Speaker 2: one two hour period, right, I mean again, that's more
- 23:25Speaker 2: than Vietnam War. So you think about that, How would America?
- 23:29Speaker 2: How would the government America respond for a terrorist attack
- 23:32Speaker 2: maybe across the border, either from Canada or Mexico, doesn't matter.
- 23:35Speaker 2: But they came in and slaughtered women, you know, men, women, babies, children,
- 23:39Speaker 2: all of it. Over fifty thousand, that would be it'd
- 23:41Speaker 2: be a declaration of war.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Which is no, they would no, they would ask for
- 23:44Speaker 1: a ceasefire.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Well that's see.
- 23:47Speaker 1: But again that double standards, double standard, double.
- 23:50Speaker 2: Standard, And there's that's we know that the media and
- 23:55Speaker 2: those the globalists have no conscience because they do have
- 23:59Speaker 2: double centers over.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Because what's going to happen in in in in Gaza
- 24:04Speaker 1: if there is a cease fire? Okay, you know, somebody
- 24:08Speaker 1: put on a social network. If we have a ceasefire,
- 24:11Speaker 1: does that mean the the hostages go to go home,
- 24:14Speaker 1: they go home for the weekend.
- 24:15Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that makes no sense of regrouping.
- 24:17Speaker 1: It's a regrouping, reorganizing. They're not getting much from outside
- 24:21Speaker 1: Gaza anymore in terms of weapons, but God knows how
- 24:24Speaker 1: much they have.
- 24:25Speaker 2: I mean, and Israel has been very clear. Yeah, well
- 24:28Speaker 2: the sea. As soon as you we'll stop the release
- 24:30Speaker 2: the siege. As soon as you release the hostage, it's
- 24:32Speaker 2: no problem done.
- 24:33Speaker 1: But you know they they want to use the hostages
- 24:35Speaker 1: as as you know, shield and currency. Yeah so uh
- 24:40Speaker 1: so anyway, so that those ten are in place, and
- 24:43Speaker 1: and they need to be Christians need to uh they
- 24:48Speaker 1: have a part. They can plan that because uh uh
- 24:52Speaker 1: they they can speak up, they can be vocal about
- 24:56Speaker 1: every single step. You know. Apathy, You know you see
- 25:00Speaker 1: people people go like, well, you know, I don't know
- 25:02Speaker 1: anybody Jewish, or I don't have any any Jews in
- 25:05Speaker 1: my neighborhood, or I live in small town America and
- 25:08Speaker 1: so they just go like, you know, I'm not gonna
- 25:09Speaker 1: worry about it. It's not it's not my fight, and
- 25:12Speaker 1: or they just they don't care. And and we have
- 25:14Speaker 1: a lot and of course lack of education. Uh, you
- 25:18Speaker 1: see this on all level of society. I mean you
- 25:22Speaker 1: see TV shows, you know, uh, you know, you see
- 25:25Speaker 1: people I'm not gonna name names because I don't like
- 25:27Speaker 1: to do that, but there's people on TV shows are
- 25:31Speaker 1: more liberal shows when they're you know, they make nonsense
- 25:34Speaker 1: comments like, uh like the Holocaust was white on white.
- 25:40Speaker 1: Uh you know who said that? But you know, I'm
- 25:42Speaker 1: not gonna unless you want to say it. Uh. So,
- 25:46Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of a lot of misunderstanding
- 25:48Speaker 1: of the Holocaust and the low or incorrect reporting.
- 25:54Speaker 2: That that's a key, right, there's this This also include
- 25:57Speaker 2: a lack of well you have that on education in
- 26:00Speaker 2: the sense of reporting, but also understanding history.
- 26:04Speaker 1: Right and understanding you know that you know, you know,
- 26:06Speaker 1: I say this often. The anti Semitism did not happen
- 26:10Speaker 1: in a vacuum. We are today where we are because
- 26:13Speaker 1: of a progression of anti Semitism. Of all the acts,
- 26:17Speaker 1: you can actually look at the Jewish people and and
- 26:20Speaker 1: and and and and that's kind of like what I
- 26:22Speaker 1: do in a class that I teach uh on the
- 26:24Speaker 1: history of the Jewish people. You can look at the
- 26:26Speaker 1: history of the Jewish people through the lens of anti
- 26:28Speaker 1: Semitism and then look at all those events you know,
- 26:32Speaker 1: like like the Church Fathers, uh, the Black Plagues, you know,
- 26:35Speaker 1: the Crusades, the Black Plagues, Luther the programs, the Holocaust
- 26:40Speaker 1: and all those different things, and you know, just a
- 26:42Speaker 1: few You can look at Jewish history that way. And
- 26:45Speaker 1: but the lower incorrect reporting is that a lot of
- 26:48Speaker 1: times things happen in uh in In in terms of
- 26:53Speaker 1: anti Semitic acts that are not reported as hate crimes exactly,
- 26:57Speaker 1: and uh in are or it's it's or it's not
- 27:02Speaker 1: even it's either not reported or it's it's underreported. And
- 27:05Speaker 1: that's for those who are reported. There's many many events,
- 27:09Speaker 1: anti Submitic events that the Jewish community doesn't even bother
- 27:13Speaker 1: to respond because they know it's.
- 27:14Speaker 2: Not gonna I just try to report that just a
- 27:17Speaker 2: few days ago that if we're talking about hate crime
- 27:20Speaker 2: or whatever specifically, under that over sixty five percent of
- 27:24Speaker 2: hate crimes are anti Semitic hate crimes. I mean that's
- 27:28Speaker 2: that's a huge amount for such a small, relatively small
- 27:33Speaker 2: group by proportion. And again this is where it comes
- 27:38Speaker 2: back to wells. As we addressed why it's satanic. This
- 27:43Speaker 2: it's satanic, and so the whole world lies in this
- 27:47Speaker 2: way and the power of the wicked one right for
- 27:48Speaker 2: John five nineteen, and so the fact that and Jesus
- 27:51Speaker 2: called him the ruler of the world, and John twelve,
- 27:53Speaker 2: John fourteen, and I mean John sixteen old and over,
- 27:55Speaker 2: so the fact that Satan is the ruler of this
- 27:57Speaker 2: world presently and has much influence. And by nature, we're
- 28:05Speaker 2: all children of wrath, we are sons of the devil.
- 28:08Speaker 2: I mean, this is Ephesians too. So you have this
- 28:10Speaker 2: theology here. So when I look around, I go, wow,
- 28:13Speaker 2: it's amazing that people like you mentioned in John eighty
- 28:17Speaker 2: forty four, they are doing the works of their father,
- 28:21Speaker 2: the devil, who's a murder from the beginning. And so
- 28:23Speaker 2: you have this. It's pervasive amongst everywhere. Again, many people
- 28:28Speaker 2: have this negative attitude and they don't even know why.
- 28:32Speaker 2: But the progression continues. Let's talk about for a moment,
- 28:38Speaker 2: unless you want to talk about another a different one.
- 28:39Speaker 2: But the demonization of the defenders and how we've been
- 28:42Speaker 2: seeing that right now post October seven, right.
- 28:47Speaker 1: I want to go back briefly maybe to I want
- 28:50Speaker 1: to say a few words about the lack of accountability, okay,
- 28:53Speaker 1: because people will will, will have will commit acts of
- 28:57Speaker 1: anti Semitism and there's absolutely zero punishment, and so it's
- 29:02Speaker 1: it's basically it leads to the next one, the empowerment.
- 29:05Speaker 1: It emboldens people to do more. There was a case
- 29:08Speaker 1: in France, I believe it was twenty seventeen when this
- 29:12Speaker 1: man threw this retired doctor, this woman out of the
- 29:16Speaker 1: window of her apartment to her death, screaming a la
- 29:20Speaker 1: acbar and you know, through through the window and she died.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Her name was Sarah Halimi. She was a doctor and
- 29:28Speaker 1: she was retired. And so of course he was arrested,
- 29:33Speaker 1: and in twenty twenty one, the call Casas, which is
- 29:38Speaker 1: the highest courte in France, kind of like the Supreme Court,
- 29:41Speaker 1: decided that they were not even going to have a trial.
- 29:44Speaker 1: It's not even like they were gonna, you know, have
- 29:46Speaker 1: a trial. And he was you know, he was not
- 29:48Speaker 1: if not found guilty, they woulday, we're not even going
- 29:51Speaker 1: to trial the man because he was smoking pot when
- 29:55Speaker 1: he pushed her through the window, So he was not responsible.
- 29:58Speaker 1: So we're not gonna dismiss I'm not having a trial. Now.
- 30:01Speaker 1: This on the backdrop of in France, if you throw
- 30:04Speaker 1: your dog through the window, you get fined I think
- 30:07Speaker 1: it's five thousand euros and you can get up to
- 30:09Speaker 1: two years in prison. You doggle your cat a pet.
- 30:12Speaker 1: So what is the message it's sending the Jewish community
- 30:15Speaker 1: of France and the world is that you know what,
- 30:18Speaker 1: you can throw a Jew out the window and walk free,
- 30:21Speaker 1: but not not a dog. So now again we're lesser
- 30:26Speaker 1: than animals or vermin were subhuman as going back.
- 30:29Speaker 2: To the house, And what you just said is that
- 30:31Speaker 2: it leaves a tone, it leaves a flavor that for
- 30:35Speaker 2: and emboldens those to be like, oh, well that's that case.
- 30:39Speaker 2: I'll just claim that I was, or maybe I will
- 30:40Speaker 2: go smoke Potter. So with that same reason, I guess
- 30:44Speaker 2: all these guys that were on drugs down to the
- 30:46Speaker 2: hamas the captic on drug out killing their own drugs,
- 30:50Speaker 2: they shouldn't be trying or.
- 30:51Speaker 1: The I mean they don't have that's that's right. Well,
- 30:53Speaker 1: they don't have to worry about accountability because they're actually
- 30:56Speaker 1: being praised for what they're doing by their own governments,
- 30:58Speaker 1: so they're not going to be arrested or anything. Uh
- 31:00Speaker 1: soomin demonisation of the defenders. What's what's happening right now
- 31:07Speaker 1: is that uh we try it. Try to go walk
- 31:10Speaker 1: in the middle of a pro Hamas or I should
- 31:12Speaker 1: say pro Palestinian uh protest anywhere in the world right
- 31:17Speaker 1: now and walk with a flag of Israel. You don't
- 31:19Speaker 1: even have to be Jewish. Keep well, you don't even
- 31:21Speaker 1: have to be Jewish. You you know, you're brandishing a
- 31:23Speaker 1: flag of.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Is The one guy got killed ever we got hit
- 31:25Speaker 2: with the megaphone.
- 31:26Speaker 1: Right and I don't know if I think he was
- 31:28Speaker 1: Jewish polecastler, yeah, in the in the in the l A, yeah,
- 31:31Speaker 1: I think, I mean maybe not, but but he was
- 31:33Speaker 1: definitely in that uh in that group of pro.
- 31:36Speaker 2: Said it doesn't matter if you're just you're holding an
- 31:37Speaker 2: Israeli flag.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Yeah, right now you're being demonized. Uh And and the
- 31:42Speaker 1: next one, persecution of Jews and defenders. The demonisation in
- 31:45Speaker 1: persecution is a is a reality now, you know. Going
- 31:49Speaker 1: back to UH. One thing I wanted to talk about
- 31:51Speaker 1: in in the UH under the education in the reporting
- 31:57Speaker 1: is uh the three d's of not Sharansky. I don't
- 32:00Speaker 1: know if you know not that Sharansky is a so
- 32:03Speaker 1: Viet refused Nick.
- 32:04Speaker 2: He was.
- 32:05Speaker 1: He came to Israel and he worked with the the
- 32:08Speaker 1: immigration department and he's still alive. He actually spoke at
- 32:11Speaker 1: the the d C uh uh uh rally uh you know,
- 32:18Speaker 1: recently and he came up with I haven't found anything
- 32:23Speaker 1: better as of as of yet, I use it all
- 32:25Speaker 1: the time. He came up with a three d's to
- 32:27Speaker 1: define if a person or an action is anti Semitic, demonization, delegitimization,
- 32:36Speaker 1: and double standards. If it fits any of those or
- 32:40Speaker 1: all three, it's anti Semitic. The demonization of the Jews
- 32:43Speaker 1: or Israel making them into you know, a people group
- 32:47Speaker 1: or a person that that's that's evil. Or the delegitimization
- 32:51Speaker 1: is saying that Israel doesn't have the right to exist,
- 32:54Speaker 1: Jews should should go somewhere else. Or the double standards.
- 32:57Speaker 1: I mean, when when I said double standards, I have
- 33:00Speaker 1: the word U N flashing flashing in front of my
- 33:04Speaker 1: my head. Okay, so the double standards are just mind boggling.
- 33:11Speaker 1: I mean, how Israel is singled out by so many,
- 33:14Speaker 1: not just at the u N, but so demonization, delegitimization,
- 33:19Speaker 1: or double standards. If if any of those three apply
- 33:22Speaker 1: to an event or something a person said, or then
- 33:26Speaker 1: it's it's anti Semitism. And let me say it, because
- 33:29Speaker 1: a lot of people tell me I'm not anti Semitic,
- 33:32Speaker 1: I'm anti Zionists. Well, I have yet to find an
- 33:36Speaker 1: anti Zionist who is not anti Semitic. I'm not saying
- 33:39Speaker 1: it's impossible. You can be anti Zonic Zionist politically. You can,
- 33:44Speaker 1: you know, like you know, fine tune the definition. But
- 33:47Speaker 1: all anti Zionists that I have talked to or or
- 33:51Speaker 1: watched or heard to date are basically anti Semites wearing
- 33:56Speaker 1: a cloak of anti Zionism. But they're not fully it sounds.
- 33:59Speaker 2: I'm more pable that. Oh, I'm just you know, I'm
- 34:01Speaker 2: not against Jews in general, you know, let them go
- 34:03Speaker 2: live in your Ganda. I'm just against him living in
- 34:04Speaker 2: Israel or whatever. And you go, no, in reality, again,
- 34:07Speaker 2: there's that that subtle, that subtle hatred there.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Well, you know that Jews were also they were offered
- 34:13Speaker 1: your ganda before nineteen fourty eight. They were offered another place.
- 34:16Speaker 2: You know what.
- 34:16Speaker 1: The other place is Madagascar? Really, yes, it's convenient. It's
- 34:19Speaker 1: an island we can get to.
- 34:21Speaker 2: You know, there is right there it is, you know
- 34:24Speaker 2: how consistent. Well, let's talk about probably. You know, we've
- 34:29Speaker 2: established certainly some of the wickedness and evil and the
- 34:31Speaker 2: basis and the foundations for some of this. But the
- 34:34Speaker 2: goal isn't to leave people there. The goal is to
- 34:38Speaker 2: encourage a proper response. Let's let's talk about let's talk
- 34:42Speaker 2: about a proper response. You wrote about this in the book,
- 34:45Speaker 2: and let's let's let's define it. Let's let's talk about it.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Okay. So in during the war, during the Second World War,
- 34:55Speaker 1: not the Third World War that we're in right now, right,
- 34:58Speaker 1: I mean, well, by the way, when do you define
- 35:00Speaker 1: war and when do we say it's a Third World War?
- 35:02Speaker 1: Not yet?
- 35:02Speaker 2: No, it's always historical.
- 35:05Speaker 1: Okay, all right. See, I knew you were going to
- 35:07Speaker 1: teach me something today. All right. So, during the war,
- 35:10Speaker 1: there was a group of people, and today they've identified
- 35:14Speaker 1: about maybe fifty five thousand of them. It's not that many.
- 35:19Speaker 1: The Yad Vashem in Israel, the Holocaust Memorial has identified
- 35:24Speaker 1: righteous gentiles who helped Jews during Second World Warst. Kitdler
- 35:30Speaker 1: was one core tem boom Roll Wallenberg, Ditric Vanhaffat. All
- 35:34Speaker 1: those guys, all those gentiles who risked their lives to
- 35:38Speaker 1: help Jewish people. Didn't take any money, and they were
- 35:42Speaker 1: not Jewish, and they risked their lives to help them.
- 35:45Speaker 1: So these became known as the righteous among the nations,
- 35:48Speaker 1: or the righteous gentiles. And again there's probably fifty three
- 35:53Speaker 1: fifty five thousand in the world. They keep finding them,
- 35:55Speaker 1: but not that many, you know, there are a lot
- 35:57Speaker 1: of them, you know, are dead now. So when these
- 36:01Speaker 1: are recognized as righteous gentiles, the highest standard they can
- 36:04Speaker 1: get is this metal. And then when they die they
- 36:07Speaker 1: become honorary members, honorary citizens of Israel. Oh wow, So
- 36:13Speaker 1: it's the highest downdar they can get. And so these
- 36:17Speaker 1: were during the wars during the Second World War. And
- 36:20Speaker 1: I've been looking at this passage in Matthew, which is
- 36:24Speaker 1: I think it's Matthew twenty five forty six, the Parable
- 36:28Speaker 1: of the Goats and the Sheep. And here we have
- 36:30Speaker 1: a passage where you show I speaking to what I
- 36:33Speaker 1: believe is a group of gentiles who were left behind
- 36:36Speaker 1: went through the tribulation survived the tribulation. And actually when
- 36:41Speaker 1: you see the passage, there's two groups. The sheep are
- 36:45Speaker 1: the ones who actually help Jewish people, rescue them, sheltered them,
- 36:49Speaker 1: closed them, fed them, protected them. And when you show
- 36:55Speaker 1: comes back at the end of the tribulation, you look
- 36:56Speaker 1: at these people and said, for what you did to
- 36:58Speaker 1: the least of these brethrend of mine, which I believe
- 37:01Speaker 1: means Jewish people according to the flesh, as Jesus was
- 37:04Speaker 1: a Jew in the flesh, you did to me and so,
- 37:09Speaker 1: and he said, now you get to enter into the
- 37:11Speaker 1: millenial kingdom. You know here you don't collect two hundred
- 37:14Speaker 1: straight straight in and then you can talk to the goats.
- 37:17Speaker 1: And that's the other side of the coin. To the
- 37:19Speaker 1: to the extent that you didn't do any of those things,
- 37:22Speaker 1: you go to the like of fire. And so I
- 37:25Speaker 1: believe that we are you and I are going to
- 37:27Speaker 1: be I mean the believers, not just you and I,
- 37:29Speaker 1: but the believers are going to be raptured before the tribulation.
- 37:32Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter if you think you're going to
- 37:35Speaker 1: go through the tribulation, if you think you're going to
- 37:36Speaker 1: be raptured before the wrath of God, to thirst three
- 37:39Speaker 1: quarter of tribulation. Wherever you fit, it doesn't matter. There's
- 37:42Speaker 1: a principle of being saved, becoming a child of God,
- 37:47Speaker 1: becoming a Christian, and seeing that God has a plan
- 37:50Speaker 1: for the Jews, and he loves the Jewish people the
- 37:52Speaker 1: apple of his eyes zach Are to eight. And when
- 37:55Speaker 1: you see that and you want to help the Jewish people,
- 37:57Speaker 1: that principle can be lifted from that passage. And if
- 38:00Speaker 1: it's in the future, which I believe it is, the
- 38:03Speaker 1: principle can be applied today to gentile Christians who love God,
- 38:09Speaker 1: they love the Bible. And if you love God, if
- 38:12Speaker 1: you love the Bible, you love God. And if you
- 38:14Speaker 1: love the Bible, you love God, you love Israel. Because
- 38:17Speaker 1: that's all throughout the pages of the Bible. So why
- 38:20Speaker 1: not have Christians today, and I call them the new
- 38:23Speaker 1: righteous among the nations. Why don't have Christians look at
- 38:27Speaker 1: what they can do to come to the rescue of
- 38:30Speaker 1: Jewish people today, because that's where we are, believe in
- 38:33Speaker 1: the history of our society.
- 38:35Speaker 2: We could use that principle that Jesus is making a
- 38:39Speaker 2: determination again. These people aren't saved by their works, They're
- 38:42Speaker 2: saved by faith. But this is the fruit of their faith.
- 38:45Speaker 2: But we could say that the principle there is anything
- 38:47Speaker 2: pre second coming, right before his anything before his second cummy,
- 38:53Speaker 2: he puts his feet on the ground. And so that
- 38:55Speaker 2: principle certainly would apply to any time at all before
- 38:58Speaker 2: his second comry, including the tributation, which would which would
- 39:01Speaker 2: be the context. But anytime before, any time before.
- 39:04Speaker 1: But in light of October seventh, yep, now more than ever.
- 39:08Speaker 2: Now more than ever. So so let's let's talk about
- 39:12Speaker 2: the Also we talked earlier, Right now we're seeing people
- 39:19Speaker 2: in America even again of crazy realizing that.
- 39:22Speaker 1: Wow.
- 39:24Speaker 2: I read several articles recently where there was some very
- 39:26Speaker 2: prominent Jewish businessmen that we're feeling that I might sell
- 39:31Speaker 2: everything and move to Israel because even in my local community,
- 39:35Speaker 2: I'm not feeling safe. I mean, you think about living
- 39:38Speaker 2: in Detroit or some of these other places where these
- 39:41Speaker 2: places are. So what what right now if you a
- 39:45Speaker 2: Jewish or a righteous gentile, what can they do right now?
- 39:50Speaker 2: We talked earlier about potential for being part of a
- 39:54Speaker 2: list or whatever, talk about that.
- 39:56Speaker 1: So so right now there is a Christians have to
- 40:05Speaker 1: ask themselves. They have to examine their hearts and if
- 40:10Speaker 1: they find themselves in a place where they go, I
- 40:13Speaker 1: want to do something for the Jewish people. And then
- 40:15Speaker 1: you can send money to Israel. There there's different different ways.
- 40:18Speaker 1: So you can make donations to help with the war effort.
- 40:20Speaker 1: And that's good, that that shouldn't stop. But we have
- 40:23Speaker 1: seven million Jews in America. That's half of the Jewish
- 40:26Speaker 1: population of the world. Okay, And I don't see this
- 40:31Speaker 1: wave of anti Semitism decreasing. I see it increasing because
- 40:35Speaker 1: of all those reasons why they're not being punished or
- 40:37Speaker 1: they're being emboldened and empowered. And so Christians are going
- 40:40Speaker 1: to have a chance to and it sounds a little judgmental,
- 40:45Speaker 1: but to redeem their ancestors who during the Second World
- 40:50Speaker 1: War were bystanders who you know, I always say a
- 40:53Speaker 1: bystander only facilitates the work of a perpetrator. If you're
- 40:56Speaker 1: a buy start, if you don't do anything, whoever does
- 40:58Speaker 1: something bad, you basically you're encouraging them. You have to
- 41:02Speaker 1: speak up, you have to you know, silence is complicity.
- 41:04Speaker 1: So so Christians are going to have a chance to
- 41:09Speaker 1: to do something and do what Well, we're at the
- 41:12Speaker 1: place where you might consider opening your home or if
- 41:15Speaker 1: you live on a large property with a you know,
- 41:18Speaker 1: a barn that's made into an office when you can
- 41:20Speaker 1: put beds or whatever it is.
- 41:22Speaker 2: So so I.
- 41:25Speaker 1: I can connect uh Christians who are interested in helping
- 41:30Speaker 1: that way to a network that's been growing. And basically
- 41:34Speaker 1: if people email me at Olivier Melnick number four Truth
- 41:40Speaker 1: at gmail dot com. Olivier Melnick, maybe spell it for people,
- 41:43Speaker 1: because this is audio, a lot of people are doing this. Okay,
- 41:45Speaker 1: so it's it's my first Oliver. You got that right,
- 41:48Speaker 1: You got that right. You know. The only person who
- 41:51Speaker 1: has a lot to Goby Oliver, you know that is
- 41:53Speaker 1: is Arnold Frickton, you know, as a joke and you
- 41:56Speaker 1: know that's you know, you don't mess with Arnold exactly.
- 41:58Speaker 2: So spell it, Okay.
- 42:00Speaker 1: It's O. L I v I E R Melnick M
- 42:07Speaker 1: E L N I c K number four truth at
- 42:12Speaker 1: gmail dot com, Olivier Melnick for truth at gmail dot com.
- 42:16Speaker 1: You email me and I will put you in touch
- 42:19Speaker 1: with that network. You will be receiving some instructions and
- 42:23Speaker 1: you'll be asked some questions and basically, you know, we
- 42:26Speaker 1: ask people questions of the network, asks questions like are
- 42:30Speaker 1: you a doctor, are you are you a lawyer? Are
- 42:32Speaker 1: you dot you drive a truck, do you fly a plane?
- 42:34Speaker 1: You have property and so and and they're put in
- 42:36Speaker 1: different states. So now that network is able to help
- 42:40Speaker 1: Jewish people in an area and put them somewhere for
- 42:44Speaker 1: a night, a day, a week, we don't know. And
- 42:47Speaker 1: I pray that we never have to to get to
- 42:49Speaker 1: that place. But I don't. I don't think it's a reality.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Yeah, no, with uh And And you know, it's interesting
- 42:53Speaker 2: because some of the things that we're seeing going on
- 42:55Speaker 2: now as relates to the state of Israel, it's Kumbayah
- 43:03Speaker 2: is not coming, you know, in the sense of it.
- 43:05Speaker 2: I'll just peace, you know, Jesus is well, we know
- 43:08Speaker 2: it will come with Jesus here. But what I'm saying next.
- 43:10Speaker 1: Kumbaya is going to be the Antichrist. It's a fake.
- 43:13Speaker 2: So the this this idea that Israel is currently surrounded
- 43:16Speaker 2: by enemies that they until they're eliminated or or or
- 43:21Speaker 2: subjugated in some ways, they're not going to stop. And
- 43:24Speaker 2: so the fact is they're going to continue their attacks,
- 43:27Speaker 2: and which means Israel's going to have to continue to
- 43:29Speaker 2: respond appropriately, which is en is going to create again
- 43:32Speaker 2: all this this the ramifications out there amongst the world
- 43:35Speaker 2: that are going to use those double standards call for
- 43:39Speaker 2: cease fire when people are getting murdered. So I don't
- 43:42Speaker 2: envision I envisioned this, as you just said, getting far worse.
- 43:46Speaker 2: Because we're as we're entering the end times, anti Semitism
- 43:50Speaker 2: will increase because we know that it's full blown during
- 43:52Speaker 2: the tribulation.
- 43:53Speaker 1: Yes, it can only it could continue to increase, absolutely,
- 43:58Speaker 1: and they might be there probably will be some respite
- 44:01Speaker 1: at the beginning of the tribulation when the anti Christ,
- 44:04Speaker 1: you know, Daniel nine twenty seven, when he signs a
- 44:06Speaker 1: peace treaty with Israel, which incidentally, and I don't know
- 44:10Speaker 1: where you when you you fit on this, this is
- 44:13Speaker 1: where I see a gog and magogue between the beginning
- 44:16Speaker 1: of the Tribulation and the abomination of desolation. I don't
- 44:19Speaker 1: know if you have a different view on that problem.
- 44:20Speaker 1: It's a different it's a different topic altogether.
- 44:23Speaker 2: Go down. Yeah, we never less, but we, like you said,
- 44:26Speaker 2: there's no doubt the Antichrist is in covenant with them, right,
- 44:31Speaker 2: and so they have his support.
- 44:32Speaker 1: It's a covenant of peace. So so Israel is going
- 44:36Speaker 1: to feel at peace for a while. So so it
- 44:38Speaker 1: might even be that anti Semitism might be punished in
- 44:42Speaker 1: a in a in a very big way. Uh. And
- 44:45Speaker 1: and then Israel's going to go like, oh, this is it.
- 44:47Speaker 1: Maybe this guy is the Messiah. He's not claiming to
- 44:50Speaker 1: be the Messiah, but but maybe they're going to think that.
- 44:52Speaker 1: And then of course have tribulation, all hell breaks loose.
- 44:56Speaker 2: So let's let's wrap it up here in the sense of,
- 44:59Speaker 2: you know, kind of before we were talking where where's
- 45:02Speaker 2: where's the gospel? And all this, I mean the just
- 45:05Speaker 2: specifically what is the gospel? And then how how do
- 45:07Speaker 2: you you know the average church person who embraces the gospel.
- 45:12Speaker 2: We want to we want to leave them with hope. Well,
- 45:13Speaker 2: also want to leave them with truth. Maybe somebody's been
- 45:15Speaker 2: listening to this and going, well, I don't want what
- 45:16Speaker 2: do they mean by gospel?
- 45:17Speaker 1: Well, first of all, one one big misconception that we
- 45:21Speaker 1: have that people have in many churches is that the
- 45:26Speaker 1: Jewish people, by virtue of being Jewish, are safe. There
- 45:30Speaker 1: are God's people, there are God's the apple of God's eyes,
- 45:32Speaker 1: the chosen people, and there's a lot of good things
- 45:35Speaker 1: said about Israel. So people say, well, I'm not gonna worry.
- 45:37Speaker 1: I'm not gonna bother sharing the Gospel with the Jewish people,
- 45:41Speaker 1: because hey, at the end, all Israel will be saved
- 45:44Speaker 1: Romans eleven. And but this is really speaking of the
- 45:47Speaker 1: end of the tribulation. Any Jews die with who dies
- 45:50Speaker 1: without the good news of You sue Us. Death and
- 45:52Speaker 1: resurrection for them is bound for like a fire for eternity.
- 45:57Speaker 1: So so the Jewish people, just like the Palestinian, just
- 46:00Speaker 1: like Hamas, just like you and I did, need Yeshua.
- 46:04Speaker 1: They need Jesus. And so the Gospel is the same
- 46:07Speaker 1: for everybody. If the Jews were in by virtue of
- 46:10Speaker 1: being Jewish, then we wouldn't have that passage in John
- 46:13Speaker 1: three of you know, between Nicodemus and.
- 46:16Speaker 2: Yashua, who you know must be born again.
- 46:19Speaker 1: Nicodemus is like super Jew.
- 46:20Speaker 2: He is that you know, he's like you know, he's
- 46:22Speaker 2: the teacher, is the.
- 46:23Speaker 1: Teacher of Israel. He's a Pharisee senator, and he's done
- 46:25Speaker 1: it all. And Jesus says, well, that's just not enough.
- 46:28Speaker 1: You got to be born again. So all people need
- 46:30Speaker 1: to be born again, including Jewish people. So my people
- 46:34Speaker 1: need need the Gospel. What what I've been doing since
- 46:37Speaker 1: I've been a believer for forty years is is uh
- 46:40Speaker 1: you know, is trying to help my people understand that
- 46:43Speaker 1: Yeshua is Jesus, Yashua is the Messiah of Israel. And actually,
- 46:48Speaker 1: if you look in the Bible, all the prophecies of
- 46:50Speaker 1: the Old Testament, of the Tana, the Jewish Bible, they
- 46:53Speaker 1: all point to only one possible outcome, one possible person,
- 46:57Speaker 1: issue of Nazareth. So I chow leunge my Jewish people
- 47:01Speaker 1: to look at all the prophecies that talk about a
- 47:04Speaker 1: redeemer or a savior, because they all paint the picture
- 47:07Speaker 1: not by name, but by ministry. They paint the picture
- 47:11Speaker 1: of your shoe are the Messiah? And and what did
- 47:14Speaker 1: he do for you that he did for me that
- 47:16Speaker 1: he can do for them, is that he gave. He
- 47:18Speaker 1: was without sin, he gave his own life. He died
- 47:21Speaker 1: on the cross, and he rose again, and he's going
- 47:24Speaker 1: to return. And all we have to do is to
- 47:27Speaker 1: believe that he did it on your behalf, on my behalf.
- 47:30Speaker 1: Just believe that he died for your sins. It's a
- 47:31Speaker 1: free gift. There's nothing to do you know. That's when
- 47:35Speaker 1: I remember when my the young girl who became my wife,
- 47:38Speaker 1: led me to the Lord. You know, she told me,
- 47:40Speaker 1: she said, you don't have anything to do. You just
- 47:42Speaker 1: have to believe that he received the free gift of salvation,
- 47:45Speaker 1: and and and and I did. And that's all. There's
- 47:49Speaker 1: no you don't have to be in a church building,
- 47:51Speaker 1: you don't have to be giving a donation somewhere. You
- 47:54Speaker 1: don't have to cut your right arm or your left leg.
- 47:56Speaker 1: You just have to believe that you shure Jesus died
- 47:59Speaker 1: for your since the innocent for the guilty, and because
- 48:03Speaker 1: of that, by his bloodshed on the cross, we can
- 48:06Speaker 1: accept that free gift and be saved and spend a
- 48:08Speaker 1: journey with God.
- 48:09Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, here we are. And the fact of
- 48:11Speaker 2: the matter is, and if somebody has truly put their
- 48:14Speaker 2: faith and trust in the Jewish Jesus as Xavior and Lord,
- 48:19Speaker 2: then the fruit of that is going to be again
- 48:21Speaker 2: recognizing that God's covenant with him. Again. They still need
- 48:24Speaker 2: to be saved through him, and we know that's going
- 48:26Speaker 2: to happen. But in the meantime we should be approaching
- 48:28Speaker 2: it from a theological and biblically accurate perspective, which means again,
- 48:33Speaker 2: even if we didn't have that, we would still be
- 48:35Speaker 2: against any sort of racism in general, right, and that's
- 48:38Speaker 2: the right thing to do.
- 48:38Speaker 1: People of good will.
- 48:39Speaker 2: Yeah, people of good will. So anyways, well, I encourage
- 48:42Speaker 2: everybody get Olivier's book, The Normalization of Anti Semitism. Again,
- 48:48Speaker 2: I would even encourage you to use it as a
- 48:50Speaker 2: Bible study. This is not going away. And what you've
- 48:55Speaker 2: done here is helpful because you not only shared the challenge,
- 48:58Speaker 2: but you gave this and that's what we're working to
- 49:01Speaker 2: I'm trying to yes and yeah, well, thank you Olivia,
- 49:04Speaker 2: thanks for being here, and thanks for listening today to
- 49:07Speaker 2: the Prophecy Watchers podcast, and as always, coouraged you to

- 49:13Speaker 2: We know that God has to be at the center
- 49:14Speaker 2: of everything we're doing, and prayer is the most important.
