1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: And Jesus said, unto them, I am the bread of life.

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: He that cometh to me shall never hunger, and he

3
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: that believeth on me shall never thirst. John six thirty five. Lord,

4
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: you are the bread of life and the living water.

5
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: You satisfy my deepest needs and fulfill my heart felt longings.

6
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: I am renewed and refreshed daily. You nourish me with

7
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: your word and provide for all my needs. You are

8
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 1: preparing me to rule and reign with you through eternity.

9
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: You are teaching me about your wisdom and justice. Your

10
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: justice is without corruption or bias. You are teaching me

11
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: to see from your perspective the spiritual battle this world

12
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: is facing. It is only through love that we will

13
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: triumph over the evil an injustice in this life. Teach

14
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 1: me to love like you, Lord. Thank you for your

15
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: goodness and mercy.

16
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: Amen.

Speaker 1: Thank you for listening to today's daily prayer. For more

Speaker 2: And Amen, and I have something interesting for you today.

21
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: I believe you're going to appreciate what the Spirit delivers

22
00:01:51,400 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: to you through me, and we'll begin with this fact

23
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 2: that I mentioned during prayer that today is globally across

24
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: the Body of Christ, the day of prayer for the

25
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: peace of Jerusalem. Now, how many of you know that

26
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 2: Israel's been into some things lately, and we're gonna talk

27
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: about that, but we're gonna talk about God's covenant as well.

28
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, a bath uh.

29
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: He has not forgotten his people. I believe this will

30
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 2: be a blessing to both jew and Gentile. Let's begin

31
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 2: with this. We are in what is known as the

32
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: ten Days of Awe or the High Holy Days. Some

33
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: of you may know the Jewish New Year began. Was

34
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: that was that Wednesday Rashashana as it's commonly known, But

35
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 2: in the Bible Yam Tarua the day of shouting or

36
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 2: the day of blasting. The blasting of the trumpets, and

37
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 2: the blasting of trumpets could mean a number of things.

38
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes the trumpets would would blast the the the military.

39
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: Uh not just in Israel, even Gentile nations. The the

40
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: trumpet would be woul would blast to let you know

41
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: they're coming. There would also be a a blasting of

42
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: the trumpet to to to highlight a victory. There are

43
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 2: a number of reasons why trumpets would be blasted, why

44
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: there would be shouting, and and and the ten days

45
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 2: of all begins with Yam Tarua, the day of of blasting,

46
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: and ends with Eam Kapoor. You've probably heard of Eam Kapoor,

47
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: the day of atonement. And we know in Christ we

48
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: have something even better than atonement. It's redemption. Praise God

49
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: that not only do we have a covering, but a

50
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 2: doing away. Our sins are not covered, but they're done

51
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: away with as a result of the redemptive work of Jesus.

52
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 2: But there is still atonement in our salvation package. Thank

53
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: God for that. But what does all of this mean?

54
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 2: Rakshashana means head of the year, which means it's the

55
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 2: Jewish New Year. The fact that it means day of

56
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 2: shouting or blasting is why its symbol is the show

57
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: far or the ram's horn. As I just mentioned, it's

58
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 2: the first of the Jewish high holy days known as

59
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: Yamm Noraim or the days of Awe. It's again ten

60
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: days beginning with Yamtarua, ending with Yam Kapoor meaning Yam

61
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 2: Kapoor is the tenth day of the seventh month. It's

62
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: the day of atonement, so atonement as well as repentance

63
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 2: are major themes for the day. The day is observed

64
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 2: by Jews by fasting, praying, attending synagogue for twenty five

65
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 2: plus hours. The day is also known as the Sabbath

66
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: of Sabbots. As a matter of fact, both Yamtarua and

67
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: Yam kapoor are are two of the high Sabbaths that

68
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 2: we read about in scripture. High Sabbaths. It is also

69
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 2: said to be the anniversary of the creation of Adam

70
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: and Eve. Go to Leviticus twenty three, chapter twenty three

71
00:05:53,520 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: and find verse twenty three. Leviticus twenty three, twenty Leviticus,

72
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: Everyone's favorite book of the Bible, good old Leviticus. I

73
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 2: love Leviticus, Leviticus twenty three, fine, verse twenty three. So

74
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 2: we can read about this day, this time, this moment.

75
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: If you have it, say I have it all right.

76
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 2: Leviticus twenty three. Twenty three says, Then the Lord spoke

77
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: to who, saying, speak to who, all right? So we

78
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: know who the Lord was talking to. Specifically, the Lord

79
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: spoke to Moses, saying, speak to the children of Israel, saying,

80
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 2: in the seventh month, on the first day of the month,

81
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: you shall have a sabbath rest, a memorial of blowing

82
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 2: of trumpets, a holy convocation of coming together, a meeting,

83
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 2: and a reading. You shall what do no customary work

84
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 2: on it, and you shall offer an offering made by

85
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 2: fire to the Lord. Now, in our modern era, I

86
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 2: haven't seen any Jews make an offering by fire. Verse

87
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 2: twenty six goes into yam Kapur, and the Lord spoke

88
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 2: to Moses, saying, also, the tenth day of the seventh

89
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: month shall be the day of atonement. It shall be

90
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: a holy convocation, a gathering, a meeting, and a reading.

91
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 2: For you. You shall afflict your souls and offer an

92
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: offering made by fire to the Lord. And you shall

93
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: do no work on that same day, For it is

94
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: the day of atonement. To make atonement to you before

95
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: the Lord, your God. For any person who is not

96
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut

97
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 2: off from his people. And any person who does any

98
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: work on that same day, that person I will destroy

99
00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: from among his people. Oh, that's rough. We do no

100
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: manner of work. It shall be a statute forever throughout

101
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 2: your generations and all your dwellings. It shall be to

102
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: you a sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict

103
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: your souls on the ninth day of the month at evening,

104
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your Sabbath again.

105
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 2: Who was the Lord speaking to Moses? And the Lord

106
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 2: told Moses to speak to who? The children of Israel?

107
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: How many of you know that everything we just read

108
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: has been fulfilled in our Messiah, finished in our Messiah.

109
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 2: In other words, the requirement and the obligation has been

110
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: done away with. Now today, as believers in the Lord,

111
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: especially Jewish believers in the Lord, we can celebrate Yamtarua

112
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 2: and Yam kapoor by choice, not by requirement. In other words,

113
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: if we don't, we don't have to be concerned about

114
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: being cut off from God. Because again, in actuality, Jesus

115
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 2: is our Yam Tarua and our Yam Kapoor, and he

116
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 2: is every other holy day and holy feasts. It is finished,

117
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 2: all requirements met. We rest in Him, and there's a

118
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 2: freedom there. There's a freedom to be able to celebrate

119
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 2: something by choice as opposed to obligation and requirement, where

120
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 2: if we do not do it, we'll be cut off

121
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: from our people and destroyed. Okay, Now, when you think

122
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: New Year you think the beginning of the year, don't you.

123
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 2: When we celebrate our new year, we celebrated on the

124
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: first day of the first month of the year. Well,

125
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 2: it's interesting that this is considered the Jewish new year,

126
00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 2: and yet we read about the seventh month. Seventh doesn't

127
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 2: quite sound like new or first. But if you have

128
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 2: a little bit of biblical knowledge, you know that seven

129
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 2: is a very unique biblical number, don't you. Now here's

130
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 2: something else that we learn when you study out the

131
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: Jewish year. You understand that they have two calendars. One

132
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: calendar is the festival or ecclesiastical calendar, and the other

133
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 2: is the civil calendar. Now, in the civil calendar, the

134
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: seventh month is the first month, and the first month

135
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: is the seventh month. I want to read you something

136
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: here in Exodus. Go to Exodus twelve. Exodus twelve, fine,

137
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 2: Verse one. I have a lot to share with you today.

138
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: I guess I should stop saying that because I have

139
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 2: a lot to share with you every week, don't I.

140
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 2: But because this is a very unique day and I'm

141
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: not doing a series, I have a lot to share

142
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: with you, and I have to get it all out.

143
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: We already know. First Sunday is the long Sunday. So

144
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: put your seatbelts on, okay. Exodus twelve, verse one. Look

145
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 2: at this, It says, Now the Lord spoke to who

146
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: and to Aaron. We read a lot about this, don't we.

147
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 2: The Lord speaking to Moses at the time, the leader

148
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 2: of the congregation of the children of Israel. So God

149
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 2: goes to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt.

150
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 2: And what does he say. He says, this month shall

151
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: be what your beginning of months. It shall be what

152
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 2: the first month of the year to you. He didn't

153
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: say it would be the first month of the year.

154
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: He said it would be the first month of the

155
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: year to you, Moses, Aaron, and Israel. Now what we're

156
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 2: reading this sounds like the beginning of the year, doesn't it.

157
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 2: This month shall be your beginning of months. It shall

158
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 2: be the first month of the year to you. That

159
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: sounds like Rasha shana to me. But this is not

160
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: talking about that. This is talking about the month of Nissan.

161
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 2: This is when we celebrate resurrection, This is when Passover

162
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 2: is celebrated, and Nissan is the first month of the

163
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: festival Jewish year, but it is the seventh month of

164
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: the civil Jewish year. What we read about in Leviticus

165
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 2: twenty three, the seventh month of the festival year, which

166
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 2: is the first month of the civil year, is the

167
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 2: month tissery. Now in numbers, we don't have to go there.

168
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: You can read this on your own. Numbers chapter twenty nine,

169
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 2: verses one through eleven, we read about both of these

170
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: days and the specifics of the offering that God required

171
00:12:55,320 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: of Israel during this time, the specifics of the And again,

172
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 2: no one's doing that today, even practicing Jews aren't making

173
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: that kind of sacrifice laid out in numbers twenty nine,

174
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: verses one through eleven. Nevertheless, in Leviticus twenty three and

175
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: numbers twenty nine we read about Yontarua and yam Kapoor,

176
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 2: the day of blasting and the day of atonement. Now

177
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 2: I want you to see something in the New Testament

178
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:30,479
Speaker 2: that I believe coincides with the day of blasting Rashashana Yontarua.

179
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 2: Look at First Corinthians, chapter fifteen. Go to verse fifty two.

180
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 2: First Corinthians, fifteen fifty two. How many of you know

181
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 2: that the coming of the Lord is a day and

182
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 2: hour in which we do not know as a matter

183
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 2: of fact, what did Jesus say. Only my father in

184
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: heaven knows. That is the coming, the parosia of the Lord.

185
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: That's the very end, when he comes with his as

186
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 2: he comes with angels, He comes with his armies to

187
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 2: decimate the armies of the beast. But before that, the

188
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 2: church must be raptured, and that will happen during something

189
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: known as the appearing of the Lord, the epiphania, and

190
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 2: we read about it here in First Corinthians fifteen. Now,

191
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 2: before we read this verse, we're gonna read one verse

192
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 2: in First Corinthians fifteen, and one verse in First Thessalonians,

193
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: chapter four. I want to ask you a question. First,

194
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: you might need to brush up on your revelation, the

195
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 2: Book of Revelation, just the tiny bit. But how many

196
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 2: of you may be recall in your reading, maybe in

197
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: listening to one teaching on eschatology, on the Book of Revelation,

198
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 2: how many of you recall reading something about seven trumpets

199
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 2: that'll be blown just by show of hands. And okay,

200
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 2: all right, we're gonna read something that has nothing to

201
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: do with those seven trumpets right here, First Corinthians fifteen.

202
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: Just look at this one, first verse fifty two. We're

203
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: just gonna read this one verse here. It says, in

204
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: a moment, in the twinkling of an eye at the last,

205
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 2: what trumpet. Now, when you read last trumpet, you might think, oh,

206
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 2: this must mean trumpet number seven during the tribulation period.

207
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 2: That's not what it's talking about, because the seven trumpets

208
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 2: blown during the tribulation period will be blown in the

209
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 2: earth realm. This is talking about the trumpet blown from heaven.

210
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 2: Watch this, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,

211
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound and

212
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: the dead will get up. This is about the resurrection.

213
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: This is the trumpet blown from heaven, heralding the arrival

214
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 2: or appearing of the Messiah to receive his ecclasia, his church.

215
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: The trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible,

216
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 2: and we shall all be changed. The dead will get

217
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 2: up first, corruption will become incorrupt. Whoever remains when the

218
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 2: Lord appears, mortal will become immortality. Look at first, Thessalonian

219
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 2: Paul echoes this in first Thessalonian chapter four, verse sixteen,

220
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: which reads like this, For the Lord himself will descend

221
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 2: from heaven. Now watch this. He's gonna descend from heaven.

222
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 2: But his feet will never touch the ground, because this

223
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 2: is not the coming of the Lord. When the Lord comes, Oh,

224
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: his feet touched the ground, an and and and trust me,

225
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 2: everyone's gonna know he showed up. But the appearing of

226
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 2: the Lord, well, only the Church will be aware of that,

227
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: and aware in this sense. We know it's going to happen.

228
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 2: We still don't know when it's gonna happen. The Bible

229
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: says that Jesus will manifest his appearing in his own time.

230
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: It says for the Lord himself first, That'slordans four sixteen,

231
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 2: will descend from heaven with the shout, with the voice

232
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 2: of an archangel, and with the what trumpet of God?

233
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 2: That's the one blown from heaven, and the dead in

234
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 2: Christ will rise first. Now we know that his feet

235
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 2: don't touch the ground, because although it says he descends

236
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: from heaven, later on in the chapter it says we

237
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 2: will meet him in the clouds. That's the rapturo, the harpazzo,

238
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 2: the catching up of the church. Revelation four to one,

239
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 2: come up here, that's the rapture. It's a stealth mission.

240
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 2: Now this trumpet that we read here and the trumpet

241
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 2: we read in one Corinthians fifteen. Many believe, and I

242
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 2: am one of them, that this coincides with Rashashana. Now

243
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 2: think about this for a second. The Bible says, we

244
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 2: don't know the day, but even if it coincides with Rashashana,

245
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 2: Yam Tarua would still fit because we don't know which

246
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 2: yam Tarua or which day of trumpets or day of blasting.

247
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 2: But know, nothing done in Scripture is by coincidence or accident.

248
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 2: God always gave previews, types and shadows in the Old

249
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: of the New, So it would make sense that this

250
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 2: trumpet blown in heaven signaling the appearing of the Lord,

251
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: would coincide with these days or Wednesday that just passed Rashashana,

252
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 2: the day of blasting or the day of trumpets again,

253
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 2: which one we don't know, which means we still don't

254
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 2: know the day or the hour. Are you still here? Okay?

255
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 2: That's Yamtarua and Yam Kapoor. But again, this day is

256
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 2: about the day of prayer for the piece of Jerusalem

257
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: said to be the center of the universe. Do you

258
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 2: all have a map for me of modern day Israel?

259
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:26,120
Speaker 2: Modern day Israel with particular nations also visible on this

260
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 2: on this map, on this image. It's all its way,

261
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 2: thank you Saints. It's all its way. Alright. Well, we

262
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 2: don't wanna waste time. So if I'm not paying attention, y'all,

263
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: let me know. Pass it as a humongous map behind you. Alright.

264
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: So this is what we're gonna do. We'll talk about

265
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 2: where Israel is placed and how she's surrounded by enemies. Now,

266
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: many of you have gone with me. You've gone with

267
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 2: my father to the Holy Land, and one trip in

268
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six in particular, when we left the Holy Land,

269
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 2: we drove right on over to Egypt. Now, Egypt and

270
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: Israel they're not besties. There's tension there. Now where is Egypt,

271
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 2: well from Israel, it's it's southwest right there at the

272
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 2: northeast portion of the continent we call Africa. Sometimes you

273
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 2: have to remind Egyptians they're Africans. Now, if you move

274
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 2: up through the Nation of Israel north, you'll find Syria

275
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 2: as well as Lebanon. How many of you have heard

276
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 2: about the strike on Lebanon in the news as of

277
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 2: recent So you've got Lebanon in one location, you've got Syria.

278
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 2: I remember one time, Mike Angel, you would remember this best.

279
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: Was it the Sea of Galilee where our tour guide said,

280
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 2: Right there, those are the Golden Heights. Right on the

281
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 2: other side is Syria. Right there. Syrian and Israeli relations

282
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 2: have been tense for some time. We all know right

283
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: now about the relationships between Israel and Lebanon, and we

284
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 2: know about the relationships between Israel and Iran. We have

285
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 2: read about this in the news, We've seen it reported.

286
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 2: Now just think about this, Oh where's my map? Because

287
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 2: I want you to see again where Israel is placed

288
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 2: and where all these other nations are placed, and you

289
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 2: kind of have to ask yourself the question, how are

290
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 2: they still here? There has to be again watch this.

291
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 2: We're not tolerating everything Israel does. Okay, let's be clear

292
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: about that. They don't do everything right. I can respect

293
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 2: wanting to stop out terrorism. I cannot approve the killing

294
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 2: of innocent Palestinians. And so you can be for Israel

295
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 2: as well as for Palestinians having freedom and for Palestinian Jews.

296
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 2: Did you know there's Jews in Palestine and there are

297
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 2: Christians in Palestine. Matter of fact, watch this in Israel

298
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: and Palestine I'm gonna read you some statistics. In a

299
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 2: second Israel, Palestine, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, and Iran. You have Jews,

300
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 2: Christians and Muslims. Relationships between the three have often been tense,

301
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 2: with Muslim and Christian relationships being very strained and Muslim

302
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 2: and jew relationships being very strained. There have been times

303
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 2: where Jewish and Christian relationships were very strained. But Christians

304
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 2: are to never forget that we must love Israel and

305
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 2: pray for their peace, even if some of Israel is

306
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 2: found in christiandom no map. Huh, All right, here we go.

307
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 2: Check this out well, listen to this. Egypt has a

308
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 2: ten percent Christian population, with ninety percent of the ten

309
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,479
Speaker 2: being Coptic. They even believe they're want to be first,

310
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 2: if not the first denominations. The Jews in Egypt today

311
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 2: number watch this anywhere from just twelve to one hundred,

312
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 2: with an unknown number not revealing their religious or ethnic

313
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 2: identity due to discrimination and other factors persecution. There are

314
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 2: synagogues in both Cairo and Alexandria. Jews have resided in

315
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 2: Syria since the Roman period, but today only three remain.

316
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 2: Oh wow. In the seventies, the Syrian Jews plight became

317
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 2: an international issue. The ongoing civil war in Syria has

318
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,719
Speaker 2: caused Christian populations to decrease from ten percent to two percent.

319
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 2: Like the almost non existent Jewish population, the Christians in

320
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: Syria face many of the same challenges, such as attacks

321
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 2: on churches, because these are predominantly Islamic republics or Islamic states.

322
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 2: Christians in Lebanon watch this. Watch this. Christians in Lebanon

323
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 2: make up about thirty to forty six percent of the population.

324
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 2: The Jews, however, in Lebanon number about two hundred to

325
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 2: five hundred, and they are highly discriminated against. All you

326
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 2: have to do is look at what's going on between

327
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: these two nations, Israel and Lebanon, and you can see

328
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 2: why Israeli law enforcement considers Lebanon an enemy state. There

329
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 2: are about eight thousand to fifteen thousand Jews. Watch this.

330
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 2: In Iran, maybe more, maybe less. The conflict between Iran

331
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 2: and Israel is severe. Iran doesn't even recognize the state

332
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: of Israel. Interestingly, many of the Jews who live in

333
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 2: Iran feel safe, as do the Iranians who live in Israel,

334
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: albeit they are mostly Jews. Iranian Jews, or what some

335
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 2: would call Persian Jews. There are about watch this, three

336
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 2: hundred thousand Christians in Iran. The Iranian constitution states Christianity, Judaism,

337
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: and watch this. I didn't even know this religion still

338
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 2: had followers a religion known as Zoroastrianism. And I believe

339
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: that Zoroastrianism is still allowed in Iran because it was

340
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:48,679
Speaker 2: born in ancient Iran. The prophet Zoraster was an Iranian prophet.

341
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: So their constitution states Christianity, Judaism, and Zoroastrianism can publicly

342
00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 2: worship within the limits of the law. Accept Guess what,

343
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 2: unless you've converted from Islam to any one of those

344
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 2: three religions. Wow, then you can't worship because you've left

345
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 2: the predominant religion of that republic or of that state.

346
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 2: All right, it's okay, not a problem, not a problem. Now,

347
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 2: watch this. In Israel, Islam is the second largest religion

348
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 2: in Israel, behind Judaism. Christianity is at number three. Israel's

349
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 2: government says freedom of religion is a core tenet of

350
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 2: their democracy. However, it presents a problem, that problem amongst

351
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 2: Christians and Muslims, in which both religions agree in the

352
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 2: nation of Israel that Israel cannot be both a democracy

353
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 2: and a Jewish state. And why do they say that? Well, well,

354
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 2: if you are when I say this to you, what

355
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 2: do you think If I say this particular country is

356
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 2: a pure Jewish state, what do you think that means?

357
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 2: If I say this particular country is a fully Christian state,

358
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 2: what do you hear? What does that mean to you?

359
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 2: If I said this country over here is a Muslim state,

360
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 2: Islamic state, what do you hear? What do you pick

361
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 2: up on? Well, if it's a Jewish state, it's a

362
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 2: Jewish nation. If it's an Islamic state, it's an Islamic nation.

363
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,959
Speaker 2: If it's a Christian state, it's a Christian nation. And

364
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: guess what. The concepts of democracy don't align with a

365
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 2: pure religious state. That's how you know this country ain't Christian.

366
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 2: No I taught on this before, you've heard me say

367
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: it before. Was there a time in which we could

368
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: say the Uited States of America was Christian? Sure, when

369
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 2: they were still living at home with their parents Britain.

370
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 2: But when they declared their independence on July fourth, seventeen

371
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 2: seventy six, they became their own person, and there was

372
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 2: a rebirth. Yes, and in order again, in order to

373
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:32,719
Speaker 2: be the ideal country, you got to allow everything. If

374
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 2: it's truly the land of the Free and the home

375
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 2: of the brave, then any religion is supposed to be

376
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 2: able to come here and practice their religion and their

377
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 2: culture and their way of life. And it be America,

378
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 2: because that's what America is supposed to be. The republic

379
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: that is America, which includes democratic tenants, is the ideal

380
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 2: place where you can live out your dreams and be yourself. Yeah.

381
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: If America was a purely Christian state, you all know

382
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 2: what would not be allowed in this nation. All right.

383
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 2: So in Israel, there are Christians and Muslims who see

384
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 2: it as somewhat oxymoronic that Israel is both democracy and

385
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 2: Jewish state, because if they're a Jewish state, then the

386
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: nation is Jewish. You understand what I'm saying. Okay, what's

387
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 2: this in America? I was really only going to focus

388
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: on these surrounding countries, the ones that surrounded Israel, these

389
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 2: tense states that surround Israel. But I figure, well, let

390
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 2: me give you some Israel stats as well as some

391
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 2: American stats. Sixty three percent of Americans say they are Christian,

392
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 2: putting Christianity as the largest religion in America with about

393
00:30:55,360 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 2: two hundred million followers. However, that sixty three percent was

394
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 2: that ninety percent in the nineties. Ye, Now, sixty three

395
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 2: percent sounds impressive, but not too impressive when it was

396
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: ninety That is a downward trend in this nation. There

397
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: has been a great decline since then. There are about

398
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 2: three point five million Muslims and seven point five million

399
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 2: Jews practicing and recognized Jews. That is, and that's how

400
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 2: it should be in this country, because that's what this

401
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: country is supposed to be about. A Muslim should be

402
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 2: doesn't matter what my religious differences are. The country, what

403
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: it represents, what its constitution says, allows for Muslims to

404
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 2: freely worship here, and Jews to freely worship here, and

405
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 2: Christians to freely worship here, and Buddhists and Hindus and

406
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 2: Toes and the list goes on. Yeah, alright, well, we're

407
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 2: just gonna let that map go and if it ever

408
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 2: comes up, we'll work with it. Are you still here? Now?

409
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: I wanna get into the fun stuff. Israel was already

410
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 2: important to me, but now it is so much more.

411
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 2: And here's why. Now these images will be ready. These

412
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: images will be ready. All I gotta do is call

413
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 2: out the number. Okay, here we go. Let's put up

414
00:32:53,440 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 2: first image number nine. We put up image number nine. Lease,

415
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 2: there we go. So we have an amazing Median audio team.

416
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 2: By the way, this image came up quickly because I

417
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 2: sent them this image. So maybe I should have sent

418
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 2: them the map that I wanted them to show. Well,

419
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: the only reason I didn't is because you all remember

420
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: during the pandemic how many maps I was showing. Okay,

421
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 2: so I thought they'd just go in the vault and

422
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 2: get one. But that's okay, all right, what are we

423
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 2: looking at here? We are looking at Pastor Fred Price

424
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 2: is twenty three and me this is my twenty three

425
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 2: and me, what do we have here? West African fifty

426
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 2: four percent? What tops that list? Nigerian? Nisea's in the

427
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: building clearly, all right, twenty seven point five percent, it's

428
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 2: over a quarter Nigerian. What follows Ghanaian, Liberian and Sierra

429
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 2: leone and all right, and this is broadly West African

430
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 2: four point six percent, Conglese in South Southeast African six

431
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 2: point three and gold and CONGLESE five point eight point

432
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: five percent broadly CONGLESE in Southern East African broadly sub

433
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 2: Saharan African point seven percent. And then here's the white

434
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 2: side of me right here under. That's a high number.

435
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 2: Look at that thirty six point three that's right represent

436
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 2: go right ahead. I'm one quarter British. When I went

437
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 2: to London last year, I told every brit every breat

438
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: I ran into, I'm one quarter British. I'm one quarter British.

439
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 2: I'm also three percent Irish and three percent Scottish. I'm

440
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 2: thirty percent UK. Now some of you have done this,

441
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: you've done your twenty three, and me you've done your ancestry,

442
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: so you know what you're made up of. Little bit

443
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 2: of French in German. Our family thought we would have

444
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 2: more French because my my father's middle name was French

445
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 2: and it was daddy's daddy or daddy's granddaddy that was

446
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 2: a full Frenchman. Who is the daddy's grandfather was a

447
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 2: full blooded Frenchman, So we thought we would have had

448
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 2: more French. Nevertheless, this is my twenty three. In me again,

449
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,919
Speaker 2: the highest percentage is Nigerian. Well, that kind of makes

450
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 2: sense matter of fact, you see how much of this

451
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: whole percentage is West African because those of us who

452
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 2: are descendants of slaves, well, where do we come from?

453
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 2: Or where did our forefathers come from? Came from West Africa?

454
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 2: So this makes sense. So again, you're twenty three in me.

455
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 2: If you are what the world would call a black

456
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 2: person living in this country who would be a descendant

457
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 2: of slaves, your numbers possibly look like this now, you know,

458
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 2: depends on your shade of brown or black. That would

459
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: determine how much European you have in you. Okay, as

460
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 2: you can see on what some would call high yellow

461
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 2: or maybe golden or so anyway, all right, words words

462
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 2: like quadroon and octoroon. We don't use words like that,

463
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 2: you know when you're you know, one quarter black or

464
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 2: one eighth black, etc.

465
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a whole lot of stuff in me. That's

466
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 3: a whole lot of nations, a whole lot of cultures

467
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 3: in me. I got shim hamm in y'a fih in me,

468
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 3: and many of you do as well. Okay, Now again

469
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 3: this is my what this is my twenty three and me.

470
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 3: But for a while now I've been wanting to look

471
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 3: even beyond that. I've been wanting to.

472
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 2: Go ancient and I found it. I found it. Let's

473
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 2: do this now. Please put up image number three, Image

474
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 2: number three. All right, this is what we see here.

475
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 2: Let me read it to you. This is this is

476
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 2: my this is my this is my DNA that goes

477
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 2: beyond and before twenty three and me m and I'll

478
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: explain to you the difference in this kind of testing

479
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 2: and what ancestry and t S and S similar companies do.

480
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 2: Neolithic Southeast Africa eighty one point one percent. That makes sense,

481
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 2: except you have to consider Africa in its ancient day.

482
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 2: European bell Beakers says six point seven percent. I don't

483
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 2: know what a bell beaker is. In m most cases,

484
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 2: I would look up something like this, but I tell

485
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 2: you what. They're European. And right under that, it says

486
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 2: Israelite five percent. Right. I I wanna s I wanna

487
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 2: sit there for a second. This is my DNA and

488
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:01,840
Speaker 2: it says Israelite. Right, it says Israelite. This is my DNA.

489
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 2: This is not theory. This is a DNA five percent. Okay,

490
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:16,720
Speaker 2: Now let's look at this again. I I love Israel

491
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 2: always half why well, I'm called to walk in love

492
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 2: because God.

493
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:22,720
Speaker 1: Is love.

494
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 2: And the Bible commands us to love His, his elect

495
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 2: of all. But when you find out you're one of 'em.

496
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 2: Ay now again, let me let me, let me be

497
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 2: very clear. I am pro Messiah before I'm pro anything else. Okay,

498
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 2: want you to be clear about that. That comes first.

499
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 2: But when I look at Paul's writings, I see that

500
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 2: while he promotes it first and says it is of

501
00:38:55,600 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 2: the utmost importance, he doesn't forget his ethnicity. Mm are

502
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 2: you still here? Okay, here's where we're gonna look at next. Oh,

503
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 2: this one is this one. This one's just put up

504
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 2: image number one. This is called the fifty Regions tests.

505
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 2: By the way, this website is called Ancient DNA Origins

506
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 2: dot com. Ancient DNA Origins dot com. East Africans thirty

507
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 2: six percent, West Africans thirty percent. Now, if you looked

508
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 2: at my twenty three and me, my West African was

509
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 2: fifty four percent. But how come my ancient DNA shows

510
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 2: East Africa as the highest percentage because way back then,

511
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 2: you have to remember, there was only a North and

512
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 2: northeastern Africa. Matter of fact, it wasn't even called Africa.

513
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 2: It was the lands of Ham South Africans twelve point

514
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 2: three percent, Central Africans nine point one percent, This West,

515
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 2: this South, and Central Africans. I believe based on research,

516
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 2: they all came from Abraham. Abraham had a third wife

517
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 2: in Genesis twenty five. Her name was Katura, and through

518
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 2: her he populated the remainder of the of the continent

519
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 2: we call Africa. But look on this region's percentage. We

520
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 2: see we see Northwestern Asians three point two north Persians

521
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 2: three percent, Israelite from one point three percent. It's a

522
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 2: different kind of test. If you're wondering why the other

523
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 2: one showed five percent and this one showed a one

524
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 2: point three percent, it's a different kind of tests. Because

525
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 2: I'm about to show you something else. I'm gonna show

526
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 2: you my Hebrew percentage. Isn't that the same as Israelite?

527
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 2: Not in origin? Not in origin? First, I want to

528
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 2: show you this, all right, and please please no, I'm

529
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 2: not trying to make this about me. I'm I'm taking

530
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 2: this somewhere. Are are you all good so far? Okay?

531
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 2: Put up image numbers eight, please image number eight. Okay,

532
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 2: this is a very small percentage. It's only two percent,

533
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 2: but as you can read it, my average genetic similarity

534
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 2: to the tribe of Dam two percent. Next image, please

535
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:33,720
Speaker 2: show image number six, Image number six from two percent

536
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 2: to six percent my genetic similarity to the tribe of

537
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 2: Zebulin or Zebulin. Next image, please show image number Let's

538
00:41:51,080 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 2: go with image number five. Image number five. From two

539
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 2: percent similarity to Dan, six percent similarity to Zebulin, my

540
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,280
Speaker 2: average genetic similarity to the This is the Israelite portion

541
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 2: of my DNA twelve percent to the tribe of Levin.

542
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 2: But here's the one. Here's the one. Show image number four,

543
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 2: Image number four. This is the tribe that the lion

544
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 2: comes from. Now I'm showing you two images here because

545
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 2: what this test does is I mean, it's really detailed,

546
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 2: and they'll show you your similarity with certain persons that

547
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,720
Speaker 2: they have found from ancient days. Some of the names

548
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 2: they just have named them because they don't know what

549
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 2: their names were. But I want to show you this.

550
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 2: It says, of my average genetic similarity to the tribe

551
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 2: of Judah twenty one percent, Dan two percent, Zebulin six percent,

552
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 2: Levi twelve percent. I believe I believe I have similarity

553
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 2: to send me in two, but I can't find that image.

554
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,720
Speaker 2: But of Judah twenty one percent of the remaining tribes,

555
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 2: it was all less than one percent. But it says

556
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 2: my highest genetic similarity is with a woman by the

557
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 2: name of Neka from the tribe of Judah. And that's

558
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 2: a forty percent similarity. Okay, so I have DNA evidence

559
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 2: that I'm in Israelite. Now watch this. You think I'm

560
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 2: the only one in this room? All right, let's look

561
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 2: at this. This is the one that intrigued me the most.

562
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 2: Though I took another test called the Semitic test. We

563
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 2: know Israelites came from Shim, but other nations came from

564
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:14,799
Speaker 2: Shim as well. Watch this image number I believe it's

565
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 2: number two. Yep, put up image number two. Oh boy, okay,

566
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 2: here we go. Look at this. I'm gonna start from

567
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:28,399
Speaker 2: the bottom the low too. Say I have a one

568
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 2: point two percent and one point three percent similarity with

569
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 2: Ammonites and Moabites. Now, who were the Ammonites and the Moabites.

570
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 2: They were the children of Moab and Ben and I

571
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 2: where did they come from? Well, you all remember Sidam

572
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,319
Speaker 2: and Tomorrow, and you all remember a Lot and his wife. Well,

573
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 2: she was addicted to the city. So she turned and

574
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 2: looked back and became a pillar of what But Lot

575
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 2: and his daughter remained. And what did his daughter say,

576
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 2: If we don't lay with our father, we will not

577
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 2: be able to preserve our genealogy. And they laid with

578
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 2: their father and produced the Moabites and the Ammonites. I

579
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 2: can't believe this. I'm a two point five percent descendant

580
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 2: of Lot. Let's take it up next. That says Hebrew

581
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 2: two point three percent. Now, now you may say, well,

582
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 2: I saw your Israelite five percent and your Israelite one

583
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 2: point three percent, and of those percentages, the similarities to

584
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 2: the tribe of Levi and Judah, et cetera. Well, what's

585
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 2: this Hebrew here? Well? Remember remember today in the modern era,

586
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 2: as far back as the New Testament, to be Hebrew,

587
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,840
Speaker 2: Israelite or Jew was pretty much synonymous. If I was

588
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 2: referring to the Jews, I was referring to the Israelites.

589
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 2: If I was referring to the Israelites, I was referring

590
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 2: to the he Paul shows us that right. It said

591
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 2: salvation was for the Jew first and then the Greek. Well,

592
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 2: you know that Jew had to include all the tribes,

593
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 2: because Paul technically wasn't a Jew. He was from the

594
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 2: tribe of Benjamin. So you know that when he made

595
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 2: the statement. By that time in the known world, Hebrews, Israelites,

596
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,480
Speaker 2: and Jews were all synonymous terms. And we have a

597
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 2: lot of words like that today, words that are synonymous,

598
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 2: but their original meanings tell us a different story. Well

599
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 2: way back in the beginning of time biblically speaking, that is,

600
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,839
Speaker 2: there were Hebrews, but there were no Israelites and Jews,

601
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 2: because thee Israelites come from the Hebrews and Jews come

602
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 2: from the Israelites, working backwards in order to be a

603
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 2: Jew back then, and the first time we see the

604
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 2: word Jew in the Old Testament was attached to a

605
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 2: man named Mordecai. It's called Mordecai the Jew. And what

606
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 2: did it mean to be a Jew Old Testament period?

607
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 2: To be an you were a Yehudite from the tribe

608
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 2: of Judah. So if you were from Judah, you were

609
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 2: a Jew. If you were from Dan, you were a Danite.

610
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 2: If you were from Reuben, you were a Rubenite. If

611
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 2: you were from Benjamin you were a Benjamite. If you

612
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 2: were from Levi you were a Levite. You all know

613
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 2: the rest. Well, where did Judah come from? Judah came

614
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 2: from a man named Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel,

615
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 2: which means any children Israel has will be an israel light.

616
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 2: So all the tribes that came or sons that came

617
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 2: from Israel, which produced tribes were the Israelites. And what

618
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 2: made up the Israelites again, the Yehudites, the Levites, the Semionites,

619
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 2: the Rubenites, the dan Kites, the Noftalim, etcetera, etcetera. Okay, Okay,

620
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 2: working back further, because Jacob came from who Isaac, and

621
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 2: Isaac came from who Abraham. Well, Abraham came from a

622
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 2: very specific line. There's a line of Shim that genealogy

623
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 2: is mentioned in Genesis is eleven, Verse ten starts off

624
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 2: with Shim. Shim's son was our facts it And we

625
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 2: go down this list our facts. It had Salah. Actually

626
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 2: he had Canaan, and Canaan had Salah, and the list

627
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,359
Speaker 2: goes all the way down. You get to Tera and

628
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 2: then you get to Abram, Nejor and Haran. Those were

629
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 2: his brothers. Well, there's one name that really stands out

630
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 2: in that genealogy. We also see it in Genesis ten

631
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 2: twenty one. Hopefully we'll have time to get there. It's

632
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 2: a man by the name of Eber. He's in that genealogy. Well,

633
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 2: Eber actually gives us Hebrew. So the man Eber, the

634
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 2: father of the Eberites, is actually the father of the Hebrews.

635
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,359
Speaker 2: And that line would then give us Abram, who then

636
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 2: gives us Isaac, who gives us Jacob, who became Israel,

637
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 2: producing Israelites, who gave us Judah, who produced Jews. Fast

638
00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,120
Speaker 2: forward to today. Again, the terms are all considered to

639
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,720
Speaker 2: be synonymous. But if you go back to the very beginning,

640
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 2: if you were a hebrew Man, then any child you

641
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 2: had was Hebrew, because that's what you are. If you're

642
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 2: a hebrew Man and a Hebrew woman and you have children,

643
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 2: your children and Hebrew, even if they weren't Israelite. So

644
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 2: let me give you some examples. Anyone ever heard of

645
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 2: a child by the name of Ishmael who showed up

646
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:27,280
Speaker 2: thirteen years before Isaac. Well, who was Ishmael's daddy Abraham,

647
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 2: and was Abraham Hebrew? Yep, So what was Ishmael now

648
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,320
Speaker 2: is Mama was Egyptian. So what does that mean Ishmael

649
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 2: was half Hebrew half Egyptian. Joseph, for example, you all

650
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 2: remember Joseph, whose hater aide brothers sold him into slavery

651
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 2: and then he prospered in Pharaoh's kingdom. Well, one day

652
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 2: Joseph said, I want me a wife, and guess where

653
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 2: he picked his wife from. Guess where that Israelite Hebrew

654
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 2: boy picked his wife from the Egyptians. He took an

655
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 2: Egyptian wife and had two sons, Ephraim and Manessa. So

656
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: what does that tell me about eph from in Manessa

657
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 2: half half Hebrew or half Israelite half Egyptian. We see

658
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:24,720
Speaker 2: these minglings all throughout the scripture. It really gives us

659
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:30,800
Speaker 2: a vivid picture of the diversity of Israel. Israel's diverse.

660
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 2: Israel's not one color, Israel doesn't have one set of

661
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 2: facial features. Put that list back up image number two.

662
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 2: Y'all still here with me? Okay? Hebrew two point three percent. Again,

663
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 2: the children of Eber would become the Hebrews. And the

664
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 2: reason why I remember everyone spoke the same language. Y'all

665
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 2: remember that, right? You remember what happened at the Tower

666
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 2: of Babbel, God confounded the languages, so they would not

667
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 2: understand one another's each Well, what happened all of mankind

668
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 2: God behind King Nimrod because he used his words in

669
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 2: a clever way. I mean, they just decided to follow old, wicked,

670
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 2: evil anti God Nimrod. Well, Eber said, not me and

671
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 2: my house, and he didn't allow his children to participate

672
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:23,200
Speaker 2: in the building of the tower, and therefore his language

673
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 2: was preserved. So the language of Adam became Hebrew and Eber,

674
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 2: and then you had all these other diverse languages. For example,

675
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,839
Speaker 2: what do I see above Hebrew? I'm five point six

676
00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 2: percent Phoenician. I shared this with you. This is where

677
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 2: we get our alphabet from. I know you heard it

678
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 2: was the Greeks. They got it from these black skin

679
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 2: folk called Phoenicians. Just let you know. And who are

680
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:53,280
Speaker 2: the Phoenicians? Canaanites? WHOA, I'm five point six percent Canaanite.

681
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:59,280
Speaker 2: But look at that top one right there, Ethiopic. Now

682
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 2: now forty four percent. The total percentage here is fifty five.

683
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 2: I means I'm over half Semite. I'm a fifty five

684
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 2: percent Semite. I'm fifty five percent from the line of

685
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 2: shim That's that's major for me, okay, I want you

686
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,839
Speaker 2: to see this. You see that Ethiopic. Now, when you

687
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 2: hear the word Ethiopic, what's the first country you think of?

688
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 2: And why wouldn't you think of Ethiopia? Makes all the

689
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,839
Speaker 2: sense in the world. Which, by the way, who were

690
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:38,279
Speaker 2: the Ethiopians? Well, let's go to Genesis ten six, with

691
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 2: your permission, May I take my time quickly? Okay, go

692
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 2: to Genesis ten six. We're gonna get the rest of

693
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 2: these scriptures in. I want you to see this. I

694
00:52:54,600 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 2: need you to see it. Genesis ten six, Okay, watch this.

695
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:11,520
Speaker 2: It says that the sons of Ham were who cush

696
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:15,839
Speaker 2: You also see miss rahim Put in Canaan, okay, which

697
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:19,479
Speaker 2: means that these are Hamites. There are the sons of Ham.

698
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 2: Our European nations come from the first son mentioned Ya fifth.

699
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 2: That's where you get your grease, your Spain, you're Italy,

700
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 2: your Thracians. The list goes on. They all come from

701
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 2: Yah fifth, and then we get to Ham in verse

702
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:36,880
Speaker 2: six and it says the sons of Ham were again

703
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:42,719
Speaker 2: cush Put or cush miss rahim Put and who and Canaan. Well,

704
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 2: working from the end of the list, we know who

705
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 2: the Canaan Knites were we know that their land would

706
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 2: eventually become the land of Israel. Before that, you have Put,

707
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 2: who did Put give us? Anyone ever heard of a

708
00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:01,359
Speaker 2: nation called Libya? Okay, Put gave us the Libyans. But

709
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:05,360
Speaker 2: back then, ancient Libya was all of North Africa west

710
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,759
Speaker 2: of Egypt. So today you have in Algeria and a

711
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 2: Tunisia and a Morocco. All of that was Libya. And

712
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 2: then before that you have Misraeim which means Egypt, upper

713
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:22,720
Speaker 2: and lower Egypt. And then before that you got Cush,

714
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 2: I got the I got the best team, got the

715
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 2: best team. Okay, look we're gonna DV eight four second.

716
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,439
Speaker 2: I just want you to see this, Okay, can you

717
00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 2: can you guess where Israel is on this map that's

718
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 2: right the center, the blue, and I just want you

719
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:39,240
Speaker 2: to see look at this. Look at this. There's Israel

720
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: right there, and there's there's Lebanon and and there's Syria.

721
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 2: There's Iran over there with Iraq in between, and here's Egypt,

722
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:53,239
Speaker 2: and here's Palestine in here, and my goodness, look at

723
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 2: look at who surrounds them, nations that they are in

724
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:08,840
Speaker 2: diametric opposition, severe conflict with and Israel. Israel is still thriving.

725
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 2: Matter of fact, let me keep it, let me keep

726
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 2: it honest with you. You don't want to mess what

727
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 2: is reel. You don't want to mess what Israel. You

728
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:24,719
Speaker 2: don't want to mess with us. Okay, you don't want

729
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 2: to You don't wanna mess with us. Okay, watch this,

730
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,400
Speaker 2: go back to Genesis ten six. Look here, the sons

731
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 2: of Ham were cush. I want to focus on this

732
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 2: cush because from Cush you get an empire known as

733
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 2: the Nubian Empire, Nubia meaning black well. Cush is also

734
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,920
Speaker 2: known as guess what Ethiopia. You wanna know what Ethiopia means.

735
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna show you what cush and Ethiopia means. Put

736
00:55:52,760 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 2: up number image number ten. Please image number ten. I

737
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,799
Speaker 2: don't know if you can see all this, but i'll

738
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 2: I'll read it to you. This is what cush means.

739
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:18,840
Speaker 2: Cushite descended of Cush. It means this is the wrong one. Nope,

740
00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:20,640
Speaker 2: you can't look at that yet. Close your eyes. Don't

741
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,799
Speaker 2: look at We gotta go on the right order. Gotta

742
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 2: go on the right order. Okay, I'm gonna find it

743
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 2: for you. Here we go, let's go with let's go

744
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 2: with Ah. There it is eleven, image number eleven. We're

745
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 2: gonna look at eleven and twelve. Here we go, eleven,

746
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:45,480
Speaker 2: there we go. All right. Cush okay, Cush, it says

747
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 2: in parentheses, or Ethiopia. Now today, if you if you

748
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,760
Speaker 2: see an Ethiopian or an Eritrean, they have very unique features.

749
00:56:55,480 --> 00:57:01,359
Speaker 2: But that's not how the the first Ethiopians looked. They're Ethiopian,

750
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 2: but it's not how the original ones that came out

751
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,960
Speaker 2: of the loins of Ham look. You want to know

752
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 2: how they look like this stage. Okay, watch this Cush.

753
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,919
Speaker 2: Cush was a son of Ham. I'm gonna I'm gonna

754
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 2: just be straight up with you. You wanna know I'm gonna

755
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 2: straight up with you because mister James Strong in his concordance,

756
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 2: he was straight up with us. Cush means black. Okay,

757
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 2: that's what it means, which means Ethiopia means black. That's

758
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 2: what it means. It means black. Now here's what's interesting.

759
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 2: One of the first examples that we have here is

760
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 2: Psalm seven, and in Psalm seven we are introduced to

761
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:51,640
Speaker 2: a Bingjamite who comes from Israel, who has the name Cush.

762
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna listen, let's just use a little common sense.

763
00:57:55,840 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 2: Ain't no way my mama is gonna name me Cush

764
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 2: if I don't look like I'm Cush. Cause you just, lady,

765
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 2: I don't know if you realize you just named Joe

766
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:13,080
Speaker 2: son Black. And that was a Benjamite from the tribe

767
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 2: of Benjamin who came from Israel. His name was Kush.

768
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 2: That's number one, number two. We know he's the son

769
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 2: of Ham, grandson of Noah, progenitor or father of the

770
00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 2: southernmost peoples located in specifically North Africa. The Nubian Kingdom

771
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 2: was found at the northern border of Sudan and the

772
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 2: southern border of Egypt. Moving to the next image, I

773
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 2: believe number twelve. This is the rest of the definition.

774
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 2: Here we go, right, the peoples who descended from Kush.

775
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 2: Also the land occupied by the descendants of Kush located

776
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 2: around the southern parts of the Nile. That's who Cush is. Now,

777
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 2: Kush is Ethiopia. I just showed you my Semitic DNA,

778
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 2: all Ethiopic. Well what is that? Let me give it

779
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 2: to you in its fullness? All right? Put up image

780
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 2: number eighteen. Image number eighteen. Y'all still here, okay, okay?

781
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 2: Image number So. I looked up Ethiopic and it just

782
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 2: said another term for geez or az. I'm like, that,

783
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 2: don't help me. So I said, well, I need to

784
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 2: look up this geeze or gez. So put up image

785
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:41,320
Speaker 2: number nineteen. Please image number nineteen. Get as now watch this.

786
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 2: This This shows you how folk on day one were

787
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 2: mixing and mingling. The sons of Y'a fifth. Oh, they

788
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 2: definitely knew the daughters of Shim and Ham, and the

789
00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,919
Speaker 2: and the daughters of Shim knew the sons of Ham,

790
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 2: and the sons of Ham knew the daughters of Yathith,

791
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 2: and whole lot of it. They were really knowing each other.

792
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 2: Why do I say that? What's this? That first word?

793
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 2: Forty four percent of my Semitic makeup is Ethiopic, which

794
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:22,720
Speaker 2: sounds like Ethiopia, which is cush, which means black, which

795
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 2: comes from Ham. And yet Ethiopic, which is synonymous with Geez,

796
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 2: is an ancient Semitic language. How can how can a

797
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 2: language from Ethiopia be Semitic when Ethiopia comes from Ham,

798
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 2: not Shim. Look at this, an ancient Semitic language of

799
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 2: Ethiopia and Eritrea, which survives as the liturgical language of

800
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 2: the Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox Churches. It's also called Ethiopic.

801
01:00:55,760 --> 01:01:00,480
Speaker 2: That's what this geeze is or gez.

802
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:08,920
Speaker 4: So so so that at some point some Kushites and

803
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 4: some Ethiopians got to know some Semites.

804
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 2: Well, it's just like the Canaanites. The Canaanites were from Ham,

805
01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 2: but they ended up taking land that didn't belong to them.

806
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 2: They took the land that would go to Israel. That

807
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 2: land wasn't for them. But the Canaanites were then again

808
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:32,760
Speaker 2: born from Ham. The Canaanites would become a Semitic speaking

809
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 2: people and adopt Semitic ways. So we're really seeing this

810
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,919
Speaker 2: mix of the sons of Ham and the sons of Shim.

811
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 2: Now look at this. Go back to Genesis Sin. We're

812
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 2: almost done. Bear with me, please, we're almost We're almost there.

813
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 2: Look at this Genesis Sin. We already read verse six.

814
01:01:56,240 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 2: Let's read verse seven. Now it says the suns of

815
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 2: Kush were Sabah. So these are the sons of black

816
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 2: Black Havilai, Subtai, rah Ama, Septekah and the sons of

817
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 2: rah Ama were Siba. We're familiar with Sheba and Dadan.

818
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:23,400
Speaker 2: They all came from Ham. This hobby Lah came from Ham.

819
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,160
Speaker 2: I read about Hobbylai in the Garden of Eden account,

820
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 2: but also in Shim's line, there's a there's a hobby Lie.

821
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 2: And today it said that hobby Lah is Yemen, which

822
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:39,960
Speaker 2: is south of Arabia, which would didn't be Semitic. But

823
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 2: I see Hobbilai and Shim and Ham just like Ethiopia

824
01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 2: and Canaan. There's been this Hamitic and Semitic intermingling for

825
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 2: a long time. Look at hever said kushb got Nimrod.

826
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 2: We know this account. He began to be a mighty

827
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 2: one on the earth. He was a mighty hunter before

828
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,760
Speaker 2: the Lord. Therefore it is said like Nimrod the mighty

829
01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 2: hunter before the Lord. Again, the word nimrod has been

830
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:09,800
Speaker 2: used incorrectly to refer to people as idiots or or stupid. Right,

831
01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 2: you would call there there were times I don't know

832
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 2: if people still use it today, but there was a

833
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 2: time where you would call someone you thought was stupid, Oh,

834
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:19,600
Speaker 2: you're a nimrod, yeah, and they don't realize you were

835
01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 2: complimenting somebody. H in this sense, Nimrod was brilliant. Y

836
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 2: he was a brilliant black skin man. But he was

837
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:29,240
Speaker 2: also the most wicked man in the earth at the time,

838
01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 2: all right, So again not fully a compliment. It's why

839
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 2: if you go back look at your Looney Tunes cartoons

840
01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 2: and you'll see why bugs Money always called Elmer Fudd

841
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 2: the hunter a Nimrod, all right. That comes from the scriptures,

842
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 2: cause Nimrod was the mighty hunter before the Lord. Okay,

843
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:54,400
Speaker 2: verse ten, what's this? And the beginning of his kingdom

844
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 2: was Babel. We all know about Babel. Babel would become

845
01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:03,600
Speaker 2: Babel on Babylon Erec or erk a cad home of

846
01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 2: the Acadians and Kauna in the land of Shinar biblical Mesopotamia.

847
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,160
Speaker 2: And then it says from that land he went to Assyria.

848
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:14,200
Speaker 2: This is where it gets important. Assyria comes from Asher,

849
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 2: who comes from shim. So again you got a Hamite

850
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 2: going into the land of a Semite and building his kingdom.

851
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 2: What does that mean? There was some mixing going on. Oh,

852
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:32,120
Speaker 2: Wat's this he builds Nineveh, abode of Ninas or Nimrod,

853
01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:36,040
Speaker 2: rahabith Irk, Kala and Resion between NINEV and Kala. That

854
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:40,640
Speaker 2: is the principal city. Miss Rahiem begot Ladem, and amen,

855
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 2: this is Egypt le Habim, not Tahim, path Rasim and

856
01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 2: kash Leahem. This is what I want you to see.

857
01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 2: From whom came the who look at that the Philistines,

858
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:55,600
Speaker 2: who we know were enemies of Israel. We know the

859
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 2: most famous Philistine was the giant Goliath, whom David the Israelite.

860
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:06,880
Speaker 2: The Philistines came from Egypt. Gives us an idea as

861
01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 2: to what the Philistines look like. Okay, but then look

862
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:17,080
Speaker 2: at verse fifteen. Canaan begot Sidon. Sidon was a wealthy

863
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:20,680
Speaker 2: Phoenician city. His firstborn in Heaf, father of the Hittites.

864
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:24,439
Speaker 2: And then you have all these heights right in verse

865
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 2: sixteen and seventeen and eighteen, and then it says to

866
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:31,600
Speaker 2: the families of the Canaanites were dispersed. In verse nineteen

867
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:35,560
Speaker 2: says the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon. As

868
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:39,360
Speaker 2: you go toward gerrar of Philistine territory. As far as

869
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:44,680
Speaker 2: what anybody ever heard of Gaza, Okay, I'll give you

870
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 2: a little more history. If you go to Gaza, or

871
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 2: if you want to see Gaza, where do you have

872
01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:56,520
Speaker 2: to go? You have to take an Israel Palestine trip,

873
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:03,960
Speaker 2: in which we know tensions are are very severe there again,

874
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,760
Speaker 2: let's ex out the terrorists. I'm all for it, but

875
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 2: a lot of collateral damage can't be for that. So

876
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:22,520
Speaker 2: my prayer is for Jewish Israelites, Christian Israelites, Jewish Palestinians,

877
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 2: Christian Palestinians to be safe, those not Christian to hear

878
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:31,320
Speaker 2: the Gospel so that they could be saved. We as

879
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:34,120
Speaker 2: believers have to be for all of them simultaneously. We

880
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:39,640
Speaker 2: can be for them but not tolerate some of the methods. Okay,

881
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 2: what's this? So if I want to see Gaza, well

882
01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:45,000
Speaker 2: that's where i'd have to go today. But wait a minute.

883
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,800
Speaker 2: Palestine wasn't always Palestine. Palestine used to be called Philistia.

884
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 2: And who came from Philistia the or who built Philistia

885
01:06:55,200 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 2: to Philistines? That's right. So Gaza basically comes out of Egypt.

886
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 2: Who comes out of him? I want you to I

887
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:10,600
Speaker 2: want to show you all of these these interminglings. Okay, now,

888
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 2: y'all got some patience. I mean, it's not it's not

889
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,200
Speaker 2: gonna be super long. But do you have some patience

890
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 2: so that I don't end abruptly. Okay, look, go to

891
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 2: Exodus chapter two. Now, look, we're gonna do Exodus numbers,

892
01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 2: hab A, Cook and Romans, and we'll be done. Okay, Well,

893
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,440
Speaker 2: I want you to see this. I gotta end with

894
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,360
Speaker 2: Romans though, because this is the day of prayer for

895
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 2: the peace of ye rue Chaleen. All right, look at

896
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 2: this Exodus chapter two, verse eleven. See, I gotta give

897
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 2: you all of this. Y'all know that I never I

898
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:51,120
Speaker 2: never take a short cut. I always go the scenic

899
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,080
Speaker 2: route when I teach, I have to. Now it makes

900
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,840
Speaker 2: me a bit of a minority pastor and a minority teacher,

901
01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 2: But I gotta go to scenic route because I need

902
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:06,080
Speaker 2: you to see some stuff. Now, how many of you

903
01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 2: know that Charleston Heston is not what Moses look like?

904
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:22,839
Speaker 2: You know that right now, because of the racial tension

905
01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:26,840
Speaker 2: in the country at the time. I get why he

906
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 2: was portrayed as Moses. I get it. For the day. Yes,

907
01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,880
Speaker 2: it was still unacceptable because if you watch the Ten Commandments,

908
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:40,160
Speaker 2: you'll see that black people work asked. But I get it.

909
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:49,559
Speaker 2: You can't the main guy, the problem, though, is is

910
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:56,960
Speaker 2: in today when the films are still being whitewashed. That's

911
01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 2: so when Christen Bale, okay, great actor, Dark Knight, Batman

912
01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:07,880
Speaker 2: all day, but when Christian Bale is playing Moses in

913
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 2: our modern era, that's a shame. But let me let

914
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 2: me also submit this to you that they answer to

915
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 2: white washing is not black washing. It's not. In other words,

916
01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,439
Speaker 2: if history said a person was black, portrayum is black.

917
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:31,440
Speaker 2: If history says the person was white, portray them, it's white.

918
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:35,040
Speaker 2: And don't try to respond to the ills of white

919
01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 2: washing by making all sorts of historical white folk black.

920
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:44,439
Speaker 2: Don't do that. That's not better. Okay, Why am I

921
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:47,920
Speaker 2: saying all of that, Because if you wanna know what

922
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:51,960
Speaker 2: the Israelites look like, you can learn from what the

923
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:57,080
Speaker 2: Egyptians look like. Exodus two eleven. It came to passing

924
01:09:57,120 --> 01:10:00,680
Speaker 2: those days when Moses was grown, and he went out

925
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,599
Speaker 2: to his brethren and looked at their bird, and who

926
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 2: were his brethren, the Israelites, the children of his room.

927
01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:08,680
Speaker 2: And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew one of

928
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 2: his brethren. So he looked this way in that way,

929
01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:13,240
Speaker 2: and when he saw no one, he said I'm gonna

930
01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 2: take them out, killed him, buried them in the sand.

931
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:21,799
Speaker 2: And when he went out the second day, two hebrew

932
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,400
Speaker 2: men were fighting, and he said to the one who

933
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:27,439
Speaker 2: did wrong, why are you striking your companion that? He said,

934
01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:29,960
Speaker 2: who made you a prince and a judge over us?

935
01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,280
Speaker 2: Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian? Uh? Oh,

936
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:39,719
Speaker 2: somebody knows. So Moses feared and said, okay, I'm busted.

937
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:42,720
Speaker 2: So when Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to

938
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,360
Speaker 2: kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh

939
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 2: and dwelt in a particular land, a land called Midian,

940
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 2: and he sat down by a well. Now, the priest

941
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,760
Speaker 2: of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and they

942
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 2: drew water and filled the truths to water their father's flock.

943
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 2: And the shepherds came and they drove them away. These

944
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:06,839
Speaker 2: random shepherds came, drove them away. But Moses helped these daughters,

945
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:10,840
Speaker 2: who were shepherdesses by the way, they were female shepherds.

946
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,599
Speaker 2: He stood up, helped them watered their flock. When they

947
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 2: came back came back to Ruel, also known as Jethro,

948
01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:21,080
Speaker 2: their father, he said, how is it that you have

949
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 2: come so soon today? And what did his daughter say?

950
01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 2: And Egyptian delivered us. Oh, you mean to tell me

951
01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:32,879
Speaker 2: that Israelite young man named Moses looked like an Egyptian.

952
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:41,080
Speaker 2: Sit with that for a second. They thought this dark

953
01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:47,960
Speaker 2: skinned man was an Egyptian, but he wasn't Israelite. Oh

954
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:55,680
Speaker 2: look at that. So I don't know how mister, mister, mister,

955
01:11:56,600 --> 01:12:01,599
Speaker 2: mister Chau, I don't know. And you don't be looking

956
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:05,840
Speaker 2: like an Egyptian. So he said to his daughters, and

957
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:07,639
Speaker 2: where is he? Why is it that you have left

958
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,240
Speaker 2: the man? Call him that he may eat bread. Moses

959
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 2: was content to live with the man, and he gave

960
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:17,360
Speaker 2: him Zupporah. But you probably know her better at Sephora. Alright,

961
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:20,680
Speaker 2: anybody ever been to Sephora? No, that's Zappora. Go on

962
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 2: right in there and c Well you shopping at Zappora? Okay?

963
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:33,479
Speaker 2: And so they and so they they married. Well, notice

964
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 2: that it says here in verse sixteen they were in Midian,

965
01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,639
Speaker 2: a priest of Midian. Well where did the Midianites come from?

966
01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:43,639
Speaker 2: Where they came from? Abraham and Katura Genesis twenty five

967
01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:46,880
Speaker 2: had a son named Midian that means Midian was half

968
01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:51,120
Speaker 2: Hebrew and half whatever. His mama was Katura, which many

969
01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:53,559
Speaker 2: believe may have been a Canaanite. We just know she

970
01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:56,719
Speaker 2: came out of the household of Abraham, came from his house,

971
01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 2: so Midian was all. Let me take it a step further.

972
01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:03,599
Speaker 2: History tells us that the media Knites were as black

973
01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:11,040
Speaker 2: as Ethiopians. Right, look at Habocak chapter three. No, No

974
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:13,160
Speaker 2: numbers twelve, Look at numbers twelve. We're gonna look at

975
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 2: one verse. I nor them long winded, but numbers twelve.

976
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:24,320
Speaker 2: Look here. You all may remember the great Apostle Price

977
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 2: teaching on this. I'm just gonna read one verse. Look

978
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:31,720
Speaker 2: at numbers twelve, verse one. What does it say, then,

979
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:39,600
Speaker 2: Miriam and Aaron? What they do? What? What did the siblings?

980
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:43,639
Speaker 2: What did the family do? They spoke against Moses because

981
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:49,160
Speaker 2: of the Ethiopian woman he had married, for he had

982
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:57,599
Speaker 2: married and Ethiopian woman. Maybe a little prejudice here, not

983
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:01,920
Speaker 2: racism the way we know it today, but but cultural

984
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:06,120
Speaker 2: ethnic prejudice. Back In other words, Moses, she's a she's

985
01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:09,160
Speaker 2: not a israel Life, she not Hebrew. Well, notice this

986
01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,439
Speaker 2: is his second wife. His first wife was a Median Knite,

987
01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:19,040
Speaker 2: black his second wife was an Ethiopian black. Yeah, matter

988
01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:21,439
Speaker 2: of fact. And again when I say black, I'm talking

989
01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:23,880
Speaker 2: I'm not see I'm the rumor has it I'm black.

990
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,760
Speaker 2: But I'm not talking about this kind of black. Again,

991
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 2: I'm talking about this kind of black right here. I'm

992
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,040
Speaker 2: talking about this kind of black right here, not that

993
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:35,639
Speaker 2: kind of black. Ethiopians was looking like this. Median knites

994
01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:44,360
Speaker 2: were looking like this, and Moses clearly had an affinity.

995
01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:55,559
Speaker 2: He said, I want my women black as knight. I

996
01:14:55,640 --> 01:15:05,040
Speaker 2: want a lepida. If if you don't know what that means, Okay,

997
01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 2: this is what I all right, look watch this. Watch this,

998
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:12,479
Speaker 2: y'all still here, stop playing around. Here we go, here

999
01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:13,960
Speaker 2: we go. This is what I need you to see. Now,

1000
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 2: put up image number image I think number ten. Yeah,

1001
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:27,840
Speaker 2: put up image number ten. We just looked at this, yeah,

1002
01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:30,080
Speaker 2: image number ten. There it is. This is what Ethiopian

1003
01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:37,840
Speaker 2: means in the Bible. Kushi kushai. Watch this Ethiopian it says,

1004
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,719
Speaker 2: see kashan, We're about to look at that in a second.

1005
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 2: But it means what there their blackness. So Ethiopia means black.

1006
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 2: To be an Ethiopian means their blackness. Now look at

1007
01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:57,040
Speaker 2: this in Habacco Habacco chapter three. Y'all know where that.

1008
01:15:57,080 --> 01:16:04,800
Speaker 5: Is, right, Habakuk, y'all know the chapter I mean the

1009
01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:06,920
Speaker 5: book where you find out that you need to write

1010
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:08,120
Speaker 5: the vision down and make it plain.

1011
01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:12,720
Speaker 2: That book, just not chapter two. Go to chapter three.

1012
01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:15,799
Speaker 2: I want you to see one thing here, verse seven,

1013
01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 2: Habit Cook three seven. Let me know when you're there.

1014
01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 2: You're there, Okay, So before we read this scripture, let

1015
01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:33,880
Speaker 2: me get my other definition. Ready, Yeah, there we go. Okay.

1016
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:38,280
Speaker 2: What does it say, Habit Cook three seven? Okay, this

1017
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:40,680
Speaker 2: is prophetic language, but it says what I saw the

1018
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:45,200
Speaker 2: tints of Kushan. That's not like cush right, but it's

1019
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:48,880
Speaker 2: not exactly cush It has to do with Watch this

1020
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:54,519
Speaker 2: in Affliction, the curtains of the land of Midian trembled.

1021
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:58,479
Speaker 2: Kashan seems to be in relation to Midian. In the media,

1022
01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:01,800
Speaker 2: Nites were said again to be the dark skinned Arabian

1023
01:17:01,840 --> 01:17:07,080
Speaker 2: people of northwest Arabia. What does Kashan mean? Which is

1024
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:10,720
Speaker 2: affiliated with Wat's this not Ethiopia but Median? What does

1025
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:15,879
Speaker 2: it mean? Put up image number seventeen. Image number seventeen

1026
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:22,120
Speaker 2: gives Kashan, Oh, what does it mean? Their blackness means

1027
01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:27,920
Speaker 2: the same thing Ethiopian means. So you have people coming

1028
01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:30,160
Speaker 2: from ham that are black as night, and you have

1029
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:35,599
Speaker 2: people coming from Shim that are also black as night. Now,

1030
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:40,600
Speaker 2: now that's not how everyone turned out. Not every hammite

1031
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:44,240
Speaker 2: was as dark as an Ethiopian, not every semite was

1032
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:49,280
Speaker 2: as dark as was as dark as the Median knites.

1033
01:17:50,280 --> 01:17:53,600
Speaker 2: Matter of fact, even from Yafif, the father of the

1034
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:59,559
Speaker 2: European nations, he produced some dark skinned boat. Now today

1035
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 2: we see a broad mix of peoples, and that's because

1036
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:10,040
Speaker 2: of location. Those lived closer to the equator than some.

1037
01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:14,280
Speaker 2: Some were in the Caucasus mountains for quite some time,

1038
01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,880
Speaker 2: not receiving the amount of sun. People who live near

1039
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:22,519
Speaker 2: the equator were receiving a lot of different factors. You

1040
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:24,479
Speaker 2: also have to factor in that there was no longer

1041
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 2: a firmament. It's just a number of things you have

1042
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:30,040
Speaker 2: to consider. Then you also have to consider the sin

1043
01:18:30,200 --> 01:18:36,120
Speaker 2: nature a number of things. Okay, Now look at romans

1044
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:44,599
Speaker 2: that semitic fifty five percent Semitic DNA of your pastor

1045
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:51,160
Speaker 2: This shows a number of things. It shows that, as

1046
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:54,800
Speaker 2: it has been said, many of the slaves or descendants

1047
01:18:54,800 --> 01:18:59,200
Speaker 2: of slaves were from the tribe of Judah. And it

1048
01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:04,200
Speaker 2: shows that the Negroes who we call Negroes, they didn't

1049
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:08,280
Speaker 2: come from Ham, they came from him. Mm See, black

1050
01:19:08,320 --> 01:19:10,679
Speaker 2: comes in in in, in, in a whole lot of shades.

1051
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,600
Speaker 2: You all know that, right. See we live in a

1052
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 2: in a in a in a heated society. Let's see.

1053
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:23,639
Speaker 2: See see slavery for America was very particular. Wasn't like slavery. See,

1054
01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:29,519
Speaker 2: you enslaved in ancient antiquity, You enslaved nations, that weren't you, right,

1055
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:35,439
Speaker 2: So when the Romans enslaved nations, it's cause they weren't Roman, right,

1056
01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:37,000
Speaker 2: And it didn't matter if they had the same skin

1057
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 2: color as them, right. Romans enslaved Greeks, they enslaved Egyptians,

1058
01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 2: they enslaved Persians, they enslaved the Scandinavians, the Nordic white

1059
01:19:48,160 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 2: skinned people, they enslaved them all cause you in But

1060
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 2: but this what what we been living in for four

1061
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:59,519
Speaker 2: hundred some years. This has been real particular and it's

1062
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:03,559
Speaker 2: oh ultimately been about black and white. But see those

1063
01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 2: are trick words, okay, because what does that really mean?

1064
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,479
Speaker 2: I'm black? When you say I'm black? What does that

1065
01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 2: it sounds like we're talking about something else other than

1066
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:18,040
Speaker 2: skin color, because I'm looking at a whole lot of

1067
01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:21,680
Speaker 2: people in here that are supposedly black, and some of

1068
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:30,080
Speaker 2: y'all whiter than white people. But you black, your skin

1069
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:31,040
Speaker 2: looks white to me.

1070
01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:39,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, if you really want to have y'all.

1071
01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:42,920
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen an Indian? I don't mean a

1072
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:48,160
Speaker 2: Native American, I mean an Indian from India? Yes? Dark?

1073
01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:55,680
Speaker 2: Is this sweater I'm wearing black? You ever seen the

1074
01:20:56,320 --> 01:21:02,160
Speaker 2: Pacific Islanders, the Fiji? You ever seen a f You've

1075
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:10,000
Speaker 2: seen that hair? Negro? They black, some.

1076
01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:19,280
Speaker 6: Owens, black Tongueans, black Cambodians, black Vietnamese, black Filipinos, black

1077
01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:20,280
Speaker 6: and brown.

1078
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 2: Cambodians, Burmese. They're dark. Did you know that there is

1079
01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:32,720
Speaker 2: a set of islands called the Negro Islands?

1080
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:38,080
Speaker 6: Guess where the Negro Islands are? Asiatic part of Asia,

1081
01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:40,040
Speaker 6: not Africa.

1082
01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:43,519
Speaker 2: Look it up. Look up the Negro Islands and look

1083
01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:46,000
Speaker 2: at the people of the Negro Islands and you'll see

1084
01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:49,599
Speaker 2: features that are very similar to the far Eastern peoples

1085
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 2: of Asia. But they skin black as all or what

1086
01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:57,519
Speaker 2: in the world today. So that black stuff and that

1087
01:21:57,600 --> 01:22:00,839
Speaker 2: white stuff, those are trick words. I've seen Spanish speaking people.

1088
01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:08,640
Speaker 2: The skin is whiter than whites from Texas. So what

1089
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:12,120
Speaker 2: does it really mean? All right? Words that were created

1090
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:18,080
Speaker 2: to keep this tension going because racism really was a race,

1091
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:28,240
Speaker 2: I mean a race. Okay, all right, we're going in here.

1092
01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:35,040
Speaker 2: Sorry but not sorry, here we go Romans. Now. The

1093
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 2: reason why I did all of that because again, you

1094
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:42,599
Speaker 2: have to imagine, imagine someone like me. I think many

1095
01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:45,479
Speaker 2: of you at least kind of know me. You kind

1096
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:48,599
Speaker 2: of know me from my teaching style, So you know

1097
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:53,280
Speaker 2: that I am interested in the history behind the scriptures

1098
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:57,880
Speaker 2: and the history in alignment with the scriptures. You all

1099
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:05,800
Speaker 2: know I'm a heavy researcher. Can you imagine discovering that

1100
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:13,679
Speaker 2: I too am Israel? Oh yeah, well yeah that's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1101
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:18,599
Speaker 2: that's mind blowing. Okay, And if you think about it again,

1102
01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 2: we don't have time today. I could walk you through

1103
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:25,320
Speaker 2: the entire Bible and show you everywhere Israel intermingled with

1104
01:23:25,360 --> 01:23:28,640
Speaker 2: people mm and you could see how you'd get the

1105
01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:36,960
Speaker 2: different Jews we have today. Yeah, because God said, if

1106
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:43,160
Speaker 2: you disobey me, i'm'a scatter you. Yeah, i'ma scatter you. Yeah.

1107
01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 2: And guess what they did And guess what happened. They

1108
01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:51,680
Speaker 2: were scattered, scattered abride And you and I both know

1109
01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:54,960
Speaker 2: that when folk get scattered, the folk get taken into

1110
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,600
Speaker 2: slavery and they end up in another land. You know

1111
01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 2: what happens, right, You get new versions of children, don't

1112
01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:07,360
Speaker 2: you You get? Yeah? Okay, look here Roman's and I

1113
01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:13,720
Speaker 2: we're going in here. This is Paul speaking. Paul, who

1114
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:19,840
Speaker 2: was known as Saul Pharisee of Pharisees, persecuted the church,

1115
01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 2: but then he got saved on his way to Damascus

1116
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:27,960
Speaker 2: to persecute more Christians. See that's why you got You

1117
01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:31,759
Speaker 2: still got the remains of churches in Syria today because

1118
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,400
Speaker 2: of the Christian influence that was in Syria in ancient days,

1119
01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,720
Speaker 2: in the early days of the church. Paul was going

1120
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:42,559
Speaker 2: to Damascus because there were believers in Damascus, which is Syria.

1121
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:44,200
Speaker 2: What was he going to do? He was going to

1122
01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 2: persecute him like he had been persecuting the church. But

1123
01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:50,799
Speaker 2: he had an encounter with Yesua. He had an encounter

1124
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:55,679
Speaker 2: with Messiah, and Paul got saved. The zealous on fire

1125
01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:03,479
Speaker 2: combative Paul saw Paul got saved, and Jesus said, ooh,

1126
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna use that for the kingdom, and he did it.

1127
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:12,439
Speaker 2: But Paul never forgot where he came from. Now Paul

1128
01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:17,560
Speaker 2: knew that to be identified with the Messiah, Trump's everything

1129
01:25:18,320 --> 01:25:21,519
Speaker 2: right at nothing else is As a matter of fact, Paul,

1130
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 2: he he said, I count all of these other things

1131
01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 2: as rubbish and loss for the gain that I have

1132
01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:32,800
Speaker 2: in Christ. In other words, Paul showed, Paul shows me

1133
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:37,880
Speaker 2: how I can be proud to be black and not

1134
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:45,040
Speaker 2: forget that I'm black, right, but but knowing that what

1135
01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:51,000
Speaker 2: prevails over this blackness and this whiteness I got in me.

1136
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:59,880
Speaker 2: Y'all saw the percentages is Christ. Christ is first right.

1137
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 2: Christ is right. And now why he wrote, if you

1138
01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:12,719
Speaker 2: put on Christ, there's neither Jews. Now Jesus knows there's Jews,

1139
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:15,200
Speaker 2: and he knows there's gentiles. What was he saying. He

1140
01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:17,559
Speaker 2: was saying, that's irrelevant. When you become one with me,

1141
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:25,639
Speaker 2: that's first. So this is what Paul says here Romans nine,

1142
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:28,880
Speaker 2: verse one, I tell the truth in Christ. I ain't lying.

1143
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:34,160
Speaker 2: I'm telling you. He wrote eight, but the Holy Spirit

1144
01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 2: didn't let him put eight in the scripture. Say I

1145
01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:40,880
Speaker 2: ain't lying. My conscience also bearing me witness in the

1146
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,840
Speaker 2: Holy Spirit. He says that I have great sorrow and

1147
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 2: continual grief in my heart. Why Paul, for I could

1148
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:52,920
Speaker 2: wish that I myself were a curse from Christ? For

1149
01:26:53,280 --> 01:27:00,240
Speaker 2: my brethren, my countrymen, according to the flesh. He didn't

1150
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,120
Speaker 2: say nothing about the spirit. He said the flesh. He said,

1151
01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 2: my countrymen, according to the flesh. What's Paul saying here?

1152
01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:09,680
Speaker 2: He's saying, I wish I could become a cursed so

1153
01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 2: that my brethren, my countrymen who look like me, whose

1154
01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:18,719
Speaker 2: origin is from the same land as mine. My concern

1155
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:21,400
Speaker 2: for my countrymen according to the flesh, he says, who

1156
01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:25,879
Speaker 2: are who? Verse four? Israelites, to whom pertained the adoption,

1157
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,320
Speaker 2: the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the

1158
01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:31,280
Speaker 2: service of God, and the promises of whom are the fathers,

1159
01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:37,240
Speaker 2: and from whom, according to the flesh, Jesus came. Because

1160
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:40,479
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, if you don't have an Abraham having

1161
01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,960
Speaker 2: in Isaac, and Isaac having a Jacob who became Israel,

1162
01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:47,680
Speaker 2: and Israel having a child named Judah, we don't have

1163
01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:51,840
Speaker 2: no Jesus. Yeah, not in the natural. Yeah, he was

1164
01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:54,920
Speaker 2: the low gods and eternity pass. But you had to

1165
01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:57,640
Speaker 2: have an establishing of Israel, to have a Messiah, so

1166
01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 2: that Israel and all Hens could be saved. Look at

1167
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:06,439
Speaker 2: this who is overall the eternally blessed God. Amen. And

1168
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:09,719
Speaker 2: then look at this one last one here in Romans eleven.

1169
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:12,439
Speaker 2: I mean, it's hard not to read all of Romans eleven.

1170
01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:20,360
Speaker 2: We're just going to read verse number one and two,

1171
01:28:21,640 --> 01:28:26,479
Speaker 2: one and two, all of one in just half of

1172
01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:30,880
Speaker 2: verse tuo Romans eleven. All right, so this is after

1173
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:34,720
Speaker 2: Paul he makes his case in Romans. Not he even

1174
01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:38,560
Speaker 2: says this. He says that Israel must be provoked to jealousy.

1175
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:42,639
Speaker 2: That's the job of us as believers in the Lord

1176
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,880
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. And guess what if you're a Messianic Jew,

1177
01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:50,879
Speaker 2: that much more your responsibility to provoke your countrymen according

1178
01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:55,719
Speaker 2: to the flesh, to jealousy, meaning what not that God's

1179
01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:57,800
Speaker 2: forgotten you. We're going to prove that right now, not

1180
01:28:57,840 --> 01:29:00,280
Speaker 2: that God has forgotten Israel, because God's a keep of

1181
01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:07,920
Speaker 2: his word. He didn't cancel covenants. But because of the

1182
01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:13,920
Speaker 2: national rejection of the Messiah. Paul says, well, we gotta

1183
01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,519
Speaker 2: provoke them to jealous we gotta get them to see

1184
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:20,640
Speaker 2: that he is the way. So he preaches that in

1185
01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:23,680
Speaker 2: Romans nine. Then he gets the Romans ten and he

1186
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:28,400
Speaker 2: talks about salvation for Israel specifically, but not limited to Israel.

1187
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,160
Speaker 2: But you all know the famous verse nine. If you

1188
01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:34,000
Speaker 2: confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in

1189
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:35,840
Speaker 2: your heart that God has raised him from the dead,

1190
01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:41,040
Speaker 2: you will be saved. It was for Israel first, but

1191
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:45,960
Speaker 2: not Israel, only for the jew first, and then the gentile.

1192
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,240
Speaker 2: Look here Romans eleven to one. He gets to chapter

1193
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:51,679
Speaker 2: eleven and he says this, I say, then, has God

1194
01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,479
Speaker 2: cast away as people? What's the answer to the question.

1195
01:29:55,720 --> 01:29:58,840
Speaker 2: Certainly not. In other words, what's Paul saying? Has God

1196
01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:04,720
Speaker 2: cast away Israel? Nope, he has not, he says, for

1197
01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:10,519
Speaker 2: I Paul am and Israel like of the seed of Abraham,

1198
01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 2: of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not cast away

1199
01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:21,439
Speaker 2: his people. He what whom he formed. God has not

1200
01:30:21,760 --> 01:30:25,439
Speaker 2: forgotten Israel. Just because the Lord's Church is in the

1201
01:30:25,479 --> 01:30:30,519
Speaker 2: earth realm. He hasn't forgotten them, and and and the

1202
01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:37,360
Speaker 2: fact that He hasn't forgotten them means we can't forget them. Remember,

1203
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:40,479
Speaker 2: I said, it's God first. So even the many of

1204
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:43,920
Speaker 2: us who are who are who are a part of

1205
01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:48,320
Speaker 2: the diverse makeup of Israel. But we're in Christ and

1206
01:30:48,400 --> 01:30:53,840
Speaker 2: Christ is first. So because Christ is first, our countrymen.

1207
01:30:54,280 --> 01:30:56,640
Speaker 2: And we pray for all men because God desires all

1208
01:30:56,720 --> 01:31:02,000
Speaker 2: men to be saved. But this salvation came through a

1209
01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:08,000
Speaker 2: specific nation, a specific line, and God has not forgotten

1210
01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:12,080
Speaker 2: about them, and we cannot forget about them. It's our responsibility.

1211
01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:21,120
Speaker 2: I want everyone to stand up right now again. I've

1212
01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:28,400
Speaker 2: gone long. I thank you for your patience. But this,

1213
01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:39,040
Speaker 2: this is why we're here. It's it's never been any

1214

1219
01:31:57,479 --> 01:32:00,759

1220
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:03,880
Speaker 2: Jack Hayford in two thousand and two. Here we are

1221
01:32:04,200 --> 01:32:08,120
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, twenty two years later, and as

1222
01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:11,080
Speaker 2: soon as Crenshaw found out about it, we got involved

1223
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:14,559
Speaker 2: and we've been involved ever since. And we were taking

1224
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:17,280
Speaker 2: trips to Israel even before we found out about this

1225
01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:19,800
Speaker 2: this day of prayer. What does the Bible say in

1226
01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:23,240
Speaker 2: Psalm one twenty two six, Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

1227
01:32:23,439 --> 01:32:26,639
Speaker 2: May they prosper who love you, Peace be within your walls,

1228
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:31,559
Speaker 2: prosperity within your palaces. Shaloam. For the sake of my

1229
01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:35,120
Speaker 2: brother and companions, I will now say, peace be within you,

1230
01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:37,880
Speaker 2: peace of the house of the Lord, our God. I

1231
01:32:38,240 --> 01:32:43,000
Speaker 2: will seek your good. And so we're gonna pray now

1232
01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,640
Speaker 2: every head bow and every eye clothes. Father, we thank you.

1233
01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:50,320
Speaker 2: First off, Father, we thank you that you have privileged

1234
01:32:50,439 --> 01:32:56,960
Speaker 2: us to be co laborers with you, co laborers who

1235
01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,400
Speaker 2: could spread the message of our Savior to a dying world.

1236
01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:06,280
Speaker 2: But Father, you have not forgotten about your elect You

1237
01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:11,920
Speaker 2: have not cast away Israel. And so we pray for

1238
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,400
Speaker 2: the peace of Israel, that there be peace in the

1239
01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:20,240
Speaker 2: walls of Jerusalem. We pray for the emotional, psychological, and

1240
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:26,200
Speaker 2: physical healing for those who are victims of terrorism and

1241
01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:31,240
Speaker 2: return all hostages. We pray for protection and provision for

1242
01:33:31,479 --> 01:33:36,520
Speaker 2: Arab Christians who are severely persecuted, along with Jewish believers

1243
01:33:37,400 --> 01:33:42,400
Speaker 2: who also experience persecution within their culture abroad, and in Israel,

1244
01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:47,559
Speaker 2: and we pray for Palestine and Israel. We pray for

1245
01:33:47,600 --> 01:33:53,040
Speaker 2: the offspring of Ishmael and Isaac. We pray for reconciliation

1246
01:33:53,760 --> 01:33:58,320
Speaker 2: between those brethren. We pray for guidance for government leaders

1247
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:04,320
Speaker 2: involved in any potential peace negotiations. We pray for God

1248
01:34:04,360 --> 01:34:06,439
Speaker 2: to provide hope, healing, and love to the children and

1249
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:10,719
Speaker 2: youth of Israel, which includes every ethnicity and every color.

1250
01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:14,960
Speaker 2: There has been loss of life, Lord of Air, of

1251
01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:21,880
Speaker 2: Israelis and Jewish Israeli children are like so much trauma.

1252
01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:24,960
Speaker 2: We thank you that God will raise up, increase and

1253
01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:30,559
Speaker 2: embolden Christian watchmen like here at Crenshaw in each nation,

1254
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:39,040
Speaker 2: especially in light of increase global total anti Semitism total.

1255
01:34:40,360 --> 01:34:44,479
Speaker 2: Praying for God's provision, also your provision Father, for the

1256
01:34:44,479 --> 01:34:47,000
Speaker 2: many who are living in poverty in Israel, that they

1257
01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:52,160
Speaker 2: find the hope and the help they need. Father, we

1258
01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:55,000
Speaker 2: thank you you said that you will bless those who

1259
01:34:55,080 --> 01:35:00,960
Speaker 2: bless Abram, and you'll curse those who curse them. Well,

1260
01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:04,559
Speaker 2: that blessing that is on us is the blessing that

1261
01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:08,240
Speaker 2: was on Abraham, those of us who belong to Christ,

1262
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:12,680
Speaker 2: both jew and gentile. So we thank you for that

01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:28,479
Speaker 2: have been empowered and inspired to minister to Israel, to

1266
01:35:28,600 --> 01:35:34,120
Speaker 2: remind them that they are the apple of God's eye

1267
01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:38,599
Speaker 2: and that they too can experience the salvation that we

1268
01:35:38,640 --> 01:35:42,559
Speaker 2: have experienced, because Jesus came for them first, not for

1269
01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:45,800
Speaker 2: them only, but for them first. We thank you for

01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:01,759
Speaker 2: of those that don't deserve to perish will be lessened,

1274
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:07,639
Speaker 2: and to none, that enemies of Israel and enemies of
