  No topic, off limits.
• 0:16
  And now, here's your host, David Firazzo.
• 0:19
  Hey friends, thank you so much for tuning in and of course brothers and sisters, family
• 0:24
  in Christ.
• 0:25
  Thanks for sharing the podcast and just for helping us get out there.
• 0:29
  Another exciting guest today.
• 0:30
  I am so blessed, man, just the people I get to talk to and that we get to learn from.
• 0:36
  So, we're talking prophecy watchers today.
• 0:40
  I just love this guy.
• 0:42
  There's a podcast over on YouTube called The Week in Bible Prophecy.
• 0:47
  We'll also be talking to about a brand new book or a recent book, A Red Heifer Ritual.
• 0:52
  The website for Mondo Gonzales is prophecywatchers.com.
• 0:58
  For those of you that are not familiar with Mondo, he was a pastor, several different churches,
• 1:03
  different states for 16 years and he was a graduate, he has a graduate degree in biblical archaeology.
• 1:10
  We'll talk a little bit about that.
• 1:12
  He's also the director of the Psalm 19 project, which has a university class observatory
• 1:17
  with three separate telescopes scanning and photographing the heavens.
• 1:22
  I mean, I've seen some of these pictures.
• 1:24
  They are amazing.
• 1:25
  He also enjoys theology, running, traveling.
• 1:27
  You can find him hosting the prophecy watchers TV program and daily podcast.
• 1:33
  Again, the website is prophecywatchers.com.
• 1:36
  Mondo Gonzales, so great to connect with your brother.
• 1:40
  Great to be here.
• 1:41
  Good to see you.
• 1:42
  Well, let's just start with what you're going to be doing.
• 1:44
  I think it's coming up in June.
• 1:46
  Watchers weekend.
• 1:47
  I was looking at that list.
• 1:48
  I think we've talked to a dozen people.
• 1:50
  You're one of them and we were so blessed with all the great speakers there.
• 1:54
  Tell us about that really important conference.
• 1:57
  Yeah, appreciate that.
• 1:58
  We do many conferences throughout the year, usually two or three.
• 2:03
  And we just had one in Orlando at the end of February.
• 2:06
  And so that was great.
• 2:08
  We like to go big or go home, so to speak.
• 2:11
  And so we usually have about 20 to 25 speakers.
• 2:15
  People's favorites, their favorite Bible teachers and prophecy teachers.
• 2:19
  And so in Colorado, June 27th of this year, we're going to be there with again.
• 2:24
  I think we have 22 at this one.
• 2:26
  And it's a great time, four days of solid Bible teaching.
• 2:30
  And these guys, I mean, we love talking to the various speakers because,
• 2:35
  you know, they're doing this full time and they are giving us the latest news.
• 2:39
  And as we know, things are moving so fast.
• 2:42
  So it certainly is a privilege to hear from them and their research and what they're watching.
• 2:46
  And you know, you think about the world economic forum and the elites.
• 2:51
  They're not, they're not, they're not sleeping at night.
• 2:53
  They're constantly busy trying to, to fulfill their agenda.
• 2:56
  And so we get the privilege of hearing from these guys.
• 2:58
  So June 27th through the 30th in Colorado Springs.
• 3:01
  And, you know, I live in Oklahoma, but I miss the mountains.
• 3:05
  So it'll be great.
• 3:07
  I'll be excited to go back to Colorado and do a little after the conference is over.
• 3:12
  Spend a little time in the mountains.
• 3:14
  I was there.
• 3:15
  I think two years ago, I spoke at JB Hickson's church.
• 3:18
  She's become a good brother and friend.
• 3:20
  I would love to, I'm really going to consider trying to make it out there.
• 3:24
  This sounds like just a phenomenal weekend in Colorado Springs, you know,
• 3:29
  where the weather is great, 90% of the time.
• 3:32
  But anyway,
• 3:33
  Mando, tell us about the Psalm 19 project.
• 3:36
  I was on that site, that part of your website.
• 3:39
  Some of these pictures, they're just astounding.
• 3:42
  You know, I mean, it's God's hand you work.
• 3:44
  Go ahead and share more about that.
• 3:45
  Yeah, I mean, we, for, I am, I am so blessed.
• 3:50
  I've had a love for astronomy since I was young.
• 3:53
  And then, you know, I've had several telescopes in the past.
• 3:55
  And then coming, coming to, coming, to do ministry here back in 2021,
• 4:01
  you know, Gary Sturman is, he's a legend in his own right.
• 4:04
  And being a Bible teacher at Prophecy,
• 4:07
  prophecy watchers here.
• 4:08
  And we had this love of astronomy.
• 4:09
  And so as we were developing this,
• 4:14
  we had a couple people who really
• 4:18
  joined us in the vision.
• 4:20
  A couple of people who were, you know, God has blessed them.
• 4:22
  And so they decided to bless us.
• 4:24
  And I said, this is the vision that we have.
• 4:26
  And they're like, no, we want to support that.
• 4:28
  And so the short cuts on 19project.com, people can go there.
• 4:32
  All the pictures that we've taken, I put them all up there for free.
• 4:34
  They're a big high resolution.
• 4:37
  And what we can do today is unprecedented in seeing
• 4:43
  the creations that God has made.
• 4:45
  A lot of people, you know, I'm, because I'm in this,
• 4:48
  I'm kind of geeked out on it and nerd out on it.
• 4:51
  Many times I'm surprised that I go,
• 4:53
  have you seen this picture?
• 4:54
  And they're like, I've never seen a picture like that.
• 4:56
  I'm like, really?
• 4:57
  And so what we've done is we're taking these images
• 5:00
  and we're putting them out there for people just to say,
• 5:04
  wait, is that real?
• 5:05
  Yes, this is real.
• 5:07
  God has made millions, billions of these objects out there,
• 5:11
  which are absolutely stunning.
• 5:12
  To me, it's, it's a great testimony to his handiwork,
• 5:14
  Psalm 19, right?
• 5:15
  The heavens declare God's glory.
• 5:17
  And the skies above show forth his handiwork.
• 5:20
  And so that's really our goal is to proclaim the glory of God.
• 5:23
  And I'll say this is my last thing I'll say,
• 5:26
  because I could go on for hours about it.
• 5:27
  Just we are, if you look at the history of humanity,
• 5:31
  however long that is, you know, 6,000, 10,000, whatever,
• 5:35
  we're the first generation truly that for the lay person,
• 5:38
  like myself, I'm an amateur, I'm an astrophotographer.
• 5:43
  So, but took astronomy and college and stuff like that.
• 5:46
  But we have the ability to see things that nobody has seen
• 5:49
  in the history of humanity.
• 5:51
  That's right.
• 5:51
  Here we are.
• 5:52
  Yeah.
• 5:53
  And yet some people still believe in a flat earth.
• 5:55
  We can see all this, right?
• 5:57
  And astronauts are up there taking pictures of the earth.
• 6:00
  Anyway, that's for no whole other podcast.
• 6:02
  Mundo, so let's briefly talk about the eclipse,
• 6:06
  because it's kind of, you know, in the same subject
• 6:09
  when you talk about what, you know, God's creation
• 6:11
  and astronomy and everything.
• 6:14
  It's fascinating even in the church, the,
• 6:18
  I guess people get caught up with sensationalism.
• 6:21
  I don't want to call it conspiracy, it's really not.
• 6:23
  But it's, what are your thoughts on the eclipse that just happened?
• 6:27
  The buildup, you know, and people saying,
• 6:29
  oh, this is God's judgment, part of God's judgment.
• 6:32
  Other people are saying, no, this has nothing to do with your thoughts
• 6:35
  with your background.
• 6:36
  I find that that's going to be fascinating to hear what you have to say.
• 6:40
  Yeah, the, I was actually shocked because of the comparison
• 6:44
  between 2017 and 2024.
• 6:48
  You know, we know that it made the shadow of an ex over Southern Illinois.
• 6:54
  And what I was actually shocked at the, the ways in which
• 7:00
  the Christian world, and maybe even say that the Christian prophecy world,
• 7:06
  got, got jumped on the bandwagon, so to speak.
• 7:09
  And look, you know, I know that people are excited about Jesus' return.
• 7:14
  I am too. But I think there, there was people ran with it.
• 7:18
  There is certainly some scriptural truth to God putting the stars and the
• 7:22
  constellations. We know Genesis 1, 14 through 16.
• 7:25
  But I think there was an immediate, there was an immediate
• 7:29
  resurgence of what you saw.
• 7:31
  I don't know if you remember the blood moons hysteria that was going on in 2014
• 7:35
  and 15. And of course, you know, they're back then.
• 7:39
  I remember even writing about it back then and saying,
• 7:41
  hey, look, this is being taken out of context.
• 7:45
  It's being, it's being filled with meaning that is not there.
• 7:49
  And so in the same way, I think you had a resurgence of that.
• 7:52
  I mean, I watched the eclipse. It was, it was surreal.
• 7:55
  If you want a definition of surreal, enjoy a four-minute eclipse.
• 8:00
  It was a perfect, perfect skies.
• 8:02
  But I think people ran with it as you mentioned.
• 8:04
  Then it didn't take long before now people are making predictions.
• 8:08
  This is a prediction of the rapture and the rapture is 40 days after.
• 8:11
  And other things.
• 8:12
  And it just sad to me that people were running with these things.
• 8:16
  And then here we are.
• 8:18
  We're still here. And I'm sad that we're still here.
• 8:21
  I would love to be with the Lord.
• 8:23
  Amen.
• 8:24
  There's a credibility issue.
• 8:26
  And I think going back to, again, the blood moons of 14, 15 and even this,
• 8:31
  you know, who knows how long the Lord's in a Terry.
• 8:32
  But will we look back on the blood moons and the eclipse of 2024
• 8:36
  as another one of those things where the church
• 8:39
  that lost some credibility amongst, I'm not thinking of the world.
• 8:43
  Okay, we don't care about the world.
• 8:44
  Yeah.
• 8:44
  I'm talking about my family members that are unsafe, which are most of them.
• 8:49
  And so every time I often see them, I don't, I see them, you know, a couple times,
• 8:54
  you know, every other year or so.
• 8:56
  But when I see them oftentimes, there can be mocking.
• 8:58
  Like, oh, and my, some of my family are very mocking.
• 9:02
  And so they see these things and they see what Christians say.
• 9:05
  And then, of course, they mock me.
• 9:07
  And I just, it's unfortunate because it's a hindrance to the gospel at times.
• 9:11
  So I came across a very interesting quote by JC Ryle.
• 9:15
  I want to share that and get your take on it.
• 9:17
  Maybe you probably are familiar with it.
• 9:19
  He said, and eclipse is a cosmic reminder that the universe is not a random
• 9:24
  collection of matter and events that happened by chance.
• 9:28
  The cosmos is so finely tuned that we can know precisely where every
• 9:33
  heavenly body will be 200 years from now, down to the minute.
• 9:37
  These events remind us that the universe is not an accident.
• 9:41
  And neither are we.
• 9:43
  God made both and he is in control.
• 9:47
  Mondo Gonzales, your thoughts on that.
• 9:49
  You know, and remember, JC Ryle is not a modern person.
• 9:53
  Yeah, so, so he's speaking this, you know,
• 9:57
  in a, not ancient times, but certainly in a century ago, at least.
• 10:01
  And so when you think about his words, you know, he's living
• 10:05
  after the era of Newton and the Newtonian mechanics and you're like,
• 10:09
  that they're living in this precision of what God has done.
• 10:12
  And that, to me, when I was there experiencing it, I'm like, you know, Lord,
• 10:17
  here we are, your, your, your handiwork is absolutely amazing.
• 10:20
  Again, that's what the Soul 19 project is about as well.
• 10:23
  But I think the challenge comes that you take what he said there, which is awesome.
• 10:29
  And then you see others that are, again, make the eclipse a sign of,
• 10:34
  of an omen or a judgment.
• 10:38
  And really, there's not a single time in scripture where you have a normal,
• 10:42
  a normal, I'm talking just a normal, natural eclipse.
• 10:45
  You know, they happen every couple of years to every year if you include lunar eclipses.
• 10:51
  There's not a single time anywhere where it's meant as a judgment.
• 10:54
  It's meant as a warning or an omen.
• 10:56
  When we look at the book of Revelation and we see the signs there, those are,
• 10:59
  none of those are normal, but they're non-natural events.
• 11:02
  They are supernatural events.
• 11:04
  And those are judgment oriented for sure, but nowhere is a natural eclipse,
• 11:08
  solar or lunar cast as a judgment anytime, not a single time.
• 11:12
  And that's what's unfortunate is people will take passes like Luke 21,
• 11:17
  speaking of the seven year tribulation period signs in the sun and the moon.
• 11:20
  Those are judgment oriented, but not, not these normal periodic events that we have now.
• 11:26
  That's right. Very well put. I mean, these are normal.
• 11:28
  These things happen and we always try to, we always want to find some spiritual connection.
• 11:32
  I understand, you know, people want to read into it, but you said something very important.
• 11:36
  That would be context. And anyway, we've got to take a brief pause.
• 11:40
  With Mondo Gonzales, the website is prophecywatchers.com.
• 11:45
  When we come back, we're going to talk about a book that he wrote,
• 11:48
  phenomenal title and concept, the red heifer ritual and the subtitle,
• 11:53
  the last piece of the third temple puzzle back with Mondo Gonzales in a minute.

  of like mind, you can email our producer, World View Matters at FPEUSA.org.
• 13:00
  Okay, Mondo Gonzales, prophecywatchers.
• 13:04
  I got to ask about something else because I love archaeology.
• 13:06
  I love what you studied in your background.
• 13:08
  Before we get to the Red Heifer Ritual, you got a master's degree in near-eastern archaeology
• 13:14
  and languages from Trinity International University.
• 13:18
  You've been to Israel many, many times.
• 13:20
  You've been on digs.
• 13:21
  You have a lot of background here that I think would be very encouraging
• 13:26
  for some of our audience to learn a little bit about.
• 13:28
  Can you kind of sum that up for us and tell us more?
• 13:31
  Yeah, my heart for the Bible and archaeology.
• 13:36
  My undergrads in Jewish studies, I took Jewish studies because I wanted to learn about the Jewish
• 13:40
  culture, which Jesus is Jewish.
• 13:41
  If he was Chinese, I would have done Chinese studies.
• 13:45
  And of course, as we know, there's so much the Old Testament's rich.
• 13:49
  And so I decided, no, I want to learn more about, again, about the Bible, the language,
• 13:52
  the culture, and so you learn Hebrew and you learn other languages that mix them with the Bible.
• 13:59
  And to me, I also love facts.
• 14:01
  I'm a scientific-minded guy, analytical, and archaeology is absolutely amazing at how it
• 14:07
  demonstrates thousands of correspondence with the scripture, showing its reliability,
• 14:15
  and then ultimately, as we know, the reliability of the gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ.
• 14:19
  I mean, that's really the point of all of this.
• 14:22
  And God does ask us to walk by faith.
• 14:24
  But I'm so glad that he's allowed the science of archaeology to develop really in the 1850s or so,
• 14:31
  at least in the modern era, and then to see all these correlations.
• 14:34
  And it really is true when people say that when you're in Israel and you just a simple shovel,
• 14:40
  you're going to find some sort of correlation at least with the culture that has been there.
• 14:44
  And that's the value of archaeology of how it contributes to our understanding of the Bible.
• 14:48
  And again, the confirmation of the scriptural and the message of the gospel.
• 14:54
  Isn't it interesting that there are some who will still say,
• 14:57
  man, I just want more evidence.
• 14:58
  I just want more.
• 14:59
  And thousands and thousands of archaeological digs, you find out where they're from or what the land,
• 15:07
  it either confirms people, places, or events that the Bible specifically and accurately
• 15:14
  describes and talks about.
• 15:16
  And yet, we're going, okay, you want more evidence?
• 15:19
  I don't just don't think they want, they have the will to believe.
• 15:22
  They just said, no, they're just, what are your thoughts on that?
• 15:25
  Because we hear this often, but yet you look at all these digs and I don't know, go ahead.
• 15:31
  You know, you nailed it because when I was in seminary, you know,
• 15:36
  taken archaeology, you know, the professor, he would have us read all these secular,
• 15:42
  Israeli, and I'm like, why are we reading this?
• 15:45
  He goes, I want you to understand the way that the broader perspective, you know,
• 15:51
  not just an echo chamber.
• 15:52
  And so it was good to interact with some of the, some of the,
• 15:54
  these very secular, atheistic archaeologists who, many of them, they do very good work,
• 16:00
  they do good work as an archaeologist.
• 16:02
  But as always, we all have the same data, but we all bring an interpretation to the data.
• 16:09
  And so what you do find is that this battle in the archaeological world between the
• 16:16
  minimalists and the maximalists, and I find it fascinating.
• 16:19
  Even those that aren't Christian within Israeli archaeology as an example,
• 16:23
  you have those that are absolute Bible believers.
• 16:26
  They're like, yep, I've, you know, I take the Bible out and I use it as a guidebook.
• 16:30
  And you know what?
• 16:32
  I find what it says.
• 16:34
  And so that to me is fascinating.
• 16:36
  But there are those that, you know what?
• 16:37
  It doesn't matter how much evidence you present, they're going to spin it away or turn it
• 16:42
  away or twist it in a way that's, that's, that doesn't provide any level of accountability or
• 16:46
  veracity for them of the scriptural text.
• 16:49
  Yep.
• 16:50
  I can quote the great Dr. Luke who said many convincing proofs.
• 16:55
  And there were people who still didn't believe.
• 16:56
  But anyway, Mando, we've got to talk about this book.
• 16:59
  Now, most of our audience and most believers, I hope, are familiar with the story.
• 17:04
  Maybe last year where Texas flew over to Israel, some like five red heifers.
• 17:09
  And we don't understand the whole process of the third temple and the sacrificial.
• 17:12
  What are they trying to do?
• 17:14
  Can you give us like an overall, like an overview of the book, The Red Heifer Ritual?
• 17:18
  Yeah, absolutely.
• 17:19
  The in September 15th of 2022, too much fanfare in the world.
• 17:24
  And also too much confusion for the average Christian.
• 17:29
  These Jewish rabbis, part of the Temple Institute, they, they purchased five red cows,
• 17:35
  red heifers from Ranch in Texas, Rockwall, Texas.
• 17:39
  And they paid $100,000 each for these cows.
• 17:42
  I mean, that's an expensive stake, so to speak.
• 17:44
  And they spent $200,000 to get them over there.
• 17:47
  And so at the time, I thought, you know, again, my background is in Jewish study.
• 17:52
  So I've read a lot of the Jewish traditions, the mission of the Talmud.
• 17:55
  And I thought, you know, there's going to be a lot of confusion as it relates to what this means.
• 17:59
  And so that's why I decided to write the book.
• 18:01
  Because what we know as well, and some people who at least watch prophecy have been familiar
• 18:07
  with the idea of the desire for many of these, these groups to build a third temple.
• 18:12
  The Bible says very clearly, Daniel, Jesus, John, and Paul all speak of a third temple being
• 18:21
  in existence during this coming tribulation period.
• 18:24
  And so that tells us, hmm, well, the Bible says that that's going to happen.
• 18:28
  And then you see now, after 1967, when the Jews conquered Jerusalem, so to speak,
• 18:33
  and they took control, we see a movement was started.
• 18:37
  The Temple Mount Faithful is one.
• 18:38
  People can check out their website.
• 18:39
  It was started in 1967 by Gersh and Solomon.
• 18:42
  And they were like, we are going to build a temple.
• 18:44
  And so Christians are like, whoa, whoa, that's what the Bible said is going to happen.
• 18:49
  And so part of that is this goal for the third temple.
• 18:53
  And the my subtitle, the last piece of the third temple puzzle.
• 18:58
  Because if you go to Jerusalem today, I've led many groups there.
• 19:01
  And you usually go to the Temple Institute.
• 19:04
  Well, they have everything done.
• 19:05
  I mean, they have the golden menorah.
• 19:07
  They have the they have the altar of incense.
• 19:09
  They have the table of shorebread, all gold.
• 19:11
  They have all the instruments, the priestly clothing, the high priest's crown, golden crown.
• 19:16
  Everything is completed.
• 19:18
  There's only one thing missing.
• 19:21
  And let me say it this way, if the political will of the government,
• 19:24
  Israeli government was there, if that was there, they could build a temple right now.
• 19:30
  They just couldn't use it.
• 19:31
  They need the red heifer because the red heifer is the ceremony.
• 19:37
  It happens not on the temple mount.
• 19:39
  That's why they can happen.
• 19:40
  It can happen anytime now that these red cows are qualified.
• 19:44
  And they became qualified in November of last year.
• 19:47
  But they burn the cow.
• 19:49
  They burn it whole.
• 19:49
  They take the ashes.
• 19:50
  They mix it with water.
• 19:52
  And this allows them to purify the priests, the people, and the location.
• 19:57
  So that's kind of the short summary of why this is
• 19:59
  prophetically significant, significant.
• 20:01
  Because there hasn't been a single qualified red heifer in 2000 years.
• 20:07
  And now there's at least three.
• 20:09
  Wow.
• 20:11
  Fascinating.
• 20:11
  And now I know Hebrews alludes to this.
• 20:14
  The ashes of a heifer sprinkling, you know, does not cleanse the worshipper or however it's worded.
• 20:21
  But there's a question in the bullet points here on the website for the book.
• 20:26
  How does the New Testament correlate the red heifer with the ministry of Jesus?
• 20:31
  Do you have a little bit you can share before we let you go?
• 20:34
  Yeah, absolutely.
• 20:35
  Because I mean, for the Christian, I mean, we're talking about this.
• 20:39
  And some Christians can be defensive of Jesus.
• 20:43
  I mean, great, I understand.
• 20:44
  But they also, I think sometimes there's an overreaction in that
• 20:48
  simply talking about the coming third temple is the same as endorsing it.
• 20:52
  I'm not here to endorse the third temple.
• 20:54
  I'm not saying that at all or to endorse the red heifer.
• 20:57
  We know that Jesus is the final sacrifice.
• 20:59
  All a hundred percent.
• 21:00
  That's the whole book of Hebrews.
• 21:01
  And in Hebrews chapter nine, what the writer does, I mean, the temple is still in existence
• 21:07
  when he's writing the book of Hebrews.
• 21:09
  But he says, hey, he's writing to Jews, right?
• 21:11
  The book of Hebrews.
• 21:12
  And he's reminding them that all of those sacrifices that it started with Moses.
• 21:17
  Again, it wasn't bad.
• 21:18
  God instituted this.
• 21:20
  But he's saying, Jesus was the fulfillment of all those.
• 21:23
  And so if any Jew at the time he's writing at the first century or now,
• 21:28
  if you're looking for those sacrifices to provide you forgiveness,
• 21:33
  ultimate eternal forgiveness, it's not going to happen.
• 21:36
  Jesus came.
• 21:36
  All those things were object lessons for you, Jews.
• 21:39
  I mean, the guy who's writing this was Jewish too.
• 21:41
  And he's saying, all those were object lessons for us, Jews.
• 21:45
  Jesus came to fulfill all those.
• 21:47
  And that's why Hebrews 10 4 says,
• 21:48
  hey, the blood of bulls and goats can never take away sins.
• 21:51
  But Jesus was that sacrifice.
• 21:53
  And so what he does in chapter nine of Hebrews is they even the red heifer,
• 21:58
  that it was given in order to purify externally, ritual impurity.
• 22:03
  He says, if that's true of the red heifer,
• 22:06
  how much more the blood of Jesus to purify our conscious, the inside.
• 22:11
  And so he says, even the red heifer ritual that was given in Numbers 19
• 22:15
  is fulfilled in the person of Jesus.
• 22:17
  Why?
• 22:17
  Because Hebrews 13 says he was crucified and was killed outside of the camp,
• 22:22
  which is exactly the requirement of the red heifer.
• 22:25
  Wow.
• 22:26
  That's amazing.
• 22:27
  You did that in such a condensed period of time.
• 22:30
  And so so accurately too.
• 22:31
  Thank you.
• 22:32
  I want to ask you something real quick about a DVD
• 22:35
  that you've got available on your website.
• 22:36
  Friends, if you go to prophecywatchers.com under the store,
• 22:40
  there's a red heifer ritual by Mondo Gonzalez bonus DVD
• 22:45
  on the temple mount by Randall Price.
• 22:47
  What can you tell us about that?
• 22:49
  Yes, Dr. Randall Price, archaeologist.
• 22:53
  He's been to Israel a hundred times.
• 22:55
  I mean, he is a true legend.
• 22:56
  And you know, we've interviewed him several times.
• 22:58
  He speaks at our conferences as well.
• 23:00
  And so he he did one of his presentations was on the temple mount.
• 23:04
  It's self and it's importance in prophecy.
• 23:07
  The different perspectives of where the temple could be.
• 23:09
  And so we add that on as a bonus for people to get even more background.
• 23:14
  Again, of the prophetic nature of the temple mount itself.
• 23:18
  And so it's it's a great again.
• 23:19
  He's a legend.
• 23:20
  He he inspired me.
• 23:22
  I went to Israel with him back in the year 2000.
• 23:24
  He didn't know, you know, didn't know who I was.
• 23:26
  I was a young 25 year old.
• 23:28
  But I sat next to him and asking him questions.
• 23:31
  And he's like, who is this young kid?
• 23:33
  But I'll tell you what, because of him, I went to archaeology myself.
• 23:37
  Wow, amazing, amazing men that we can glean from and learn from.
• 23:42
  That's one thing that's really good about this age where we have the internet.
• 23:46
  We have conferences.
• 23:47
  We have books, DVDs.
• 23:50
  I want to ask you about your podcast.
• 23:51
  I see a lot of familiar faces on there.
• 23:53
  JB Hickson, Billy Crone,
• 23:56
  several others.
• 23:57
  Terry James, I see that Gary recently interviewed him.
• 24:00
  Tell us about the podcast.
• 24:02
  And is it just on YouTube or how does that work?
• 24:05
  Oh, no, we the so our YouTube channel, if people go to prophecywaters.com
• 24:10
  and they go where to watch and listen.
• 24:12
  We have television programs.
• 24:14
  We get rate.
• 24:14
  We have radio, podcast, social media.
• 24:17
  We're very diverse in our media approach.
• 24:20
  But one of them, again, is our podcast where the week in Bible prophecy.com.
• 24:27
  But we have that out on a separate channel because we know one day the most likely
• 24:33
  our YouTube channel is going to get blasted and censored like so many others.
• 24:37
  And so we started the podcast channel because eventually,
• 24:40
  hopefully people will find us if we get canceled, we'll move over there.
• 24:43
  But yeah, we interview so many people on all of our YouTube channels.
• 24:48
  And the podcast is great.
• 24:49
  We do that once a week at we interview people.
• 24:52
  But I'm interviewing people all the rest of the week,
• 24:54
  which we'll find on our main YouTube channel.
• 24:56
  There's so much going on and there's just a lack of time.
• 25:01
  Well, I hear you.
• 25:02
  I love to tell the story.
• 25:03
  I mean, we've got to use whatever outlets we can, right?
• 25:08
  My book came out recently.
• 25:10
  I JB Hickson interviewed me and I put it on my YouTube and with no warning,
• 25:14
  it was deleted.
• 25:15
  YouTube deleted it because it didn't evaluate their community standards.
• 25:19
  So it is on rumble and it's on these other places.
• 25:22
  But I hear you.
• 25:23
  But if you go over to prophecywatchers.com and you're in the category
• 25:28
  under the store, it's such a long list.
• 25:31
  You keep scrolling down, scrolling down.
• 25:32
  You've got subjects.
• 25:34
  You've got people, authors, and all kinds of different.
• 25:38
  Oh my goodness, it's extensive friends.
• 25:41
  So you can anything you possibly need to know.
• 25:43
  I think you could find just scroll down that left column.
• 25:46
  But Mundo, this is so wonderful for me personally.
• 25:50
  Just encouraged by your ministry and man, your background is just amazing.
• 25:56
  I don't know.
• 25:56
  You can't be that old.
• 25:59
  I mean, if you look at all the stuff you've done, you should be like 90.
• 26:03
  But brother, God bless you.
• 26:05
  Thanks for all that you're doing.
• 26:06
  Your voice, your program, and your ministry.
• 26:08
  I hope I really hope to make it to one of those conferences.
• 26:11
  Absolutely.
• 26:12
  You're invited and make sure to anybody else come up and say hello.
• 26:16
  I love people.
• 26:17
  I was a pastor for a long time.
• 26:18
  So I love just, I love people.
• 26:20
  Awesome.
• 26:21
  And that's again in Colorado at the end of the, I think in the, yeah, June 27th
• 26:24
  through the 30th, the watchers weekend.
• 26:27
  Really guys, I'm really considering,
• 26:30
  see if I can check that out in person.
• 26:32
  Mundo Gonzalez, thank you so much for your time, brother.
• 26:35
  Lord willing, we can do this again.
• 26:37
  God bless.
• 26:38
  Amen.
• 26:39
  Thank you for having me.
• 26:40
  Thank you.
• 26:41
  Man, just, I mean, I was tired, you know, earlier today.
• 26:44
  And then I come in here and I do a couple podcasts.
• 26:47
  And it's like, I'm just charged up because we get encouraged and inspired, right?
• 26:52
  When we, when we talk with certain people and hear about their studies, their expertise.
• 26:57
  And it's just, it's so good for the body of Christ.
• 26:59
  That's one benefit of having these opportunities to, you share this, social media,
• 27:04
  whatever platform you watch.
• 27:05
  And listen, share it, friends.
• 27:06
  God bless you.
• 27:07
  And as always, keep speaking the truth about things that matter.
