  • Middle east analyst matti shoshani, who will bring us all
  • 00:07:44.703 --> 00:07:47.539
  • The information about what is happening on the iran front.
  • 00:07:47.539 --> 00:07:51.210
  • >> thank you. yael. in iran, more than seven people were hung
  • 00:07:51.210 --> 00:07:55.380
  • And 21,000 people were arrested in what the iranian government
  • 00:07:55.380 --> 00:08:00.486
  • Is reporting took place in the 12 day war, back in the month of
  • 00:08:00.486 --> 00:08:05.190
  • June. again, let me repeat that. number seven executed, 21,000
  • 00:08:05.190 --> 00:08:10.496
  • Arrested. now, here's how the iranian government gets to this
  • 00:08:10.496 --> 00:08:13.098
  • Number. they claim they arrested more than 240 people that were
  • 00:08:13.098 --> 00:08:16.935
  • Directly involved in espionage. and they did this in more than a
  • 00:08:16.935 --> 00:08:21.240
  • Thousand roadblocks that they set up throughout the country.
  • 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.443
  • Now, these are not substantiated reports by any external source,
  • 00:08:24.443 --> 00:08:27.646
  • But they are substantiated by the iranian government. and if
  • 00:08:27.646 --> 00:08:30.549
  • You think about their agenda, they don't really have a reason
  • 00:08:30.549 --> 00:08:34.419
  • To report on these numbers unless they're trying to really
  • 00:08:34.419 --> 00:08:36.922
  • Sow fear in the hearts of their people. this is an internal
  • 00:08:36.922 --> 00:08:40.526
  • Message for the iranian government that is meant to put
  • 00:08:40.526 --> 00:08:43.829
  • Fear in the hearts of their people. the numbers are
  • 00:08:43.829 --> 00:08:46.498
  • Staggering 21,000 arrests, hundreds of people convicted of
  • 00:08:46.498 --> 00:08:50.836
  • Espionage, and over seven people that we know of that were
  • 00:08:50.836 --> 00:08:54.706
  • Executed during that 12 day war. we had numbers early on, right
  • 00:08:54.706 --> 00:08:59.111
  • After the war took place, the 12 day campaign against iran, where
  • 00:08:59.111 --> 00:09:02.214
  • It was 900, and then about 2000 people. now the iranian
  • 00:09:02.214 --> 00:09:05.784
  • Government, specifically one of their government ministries
  • 00:09:05.784 --> 00:09:08.453
  • Related to the police, is releasing the full numbers. it
  • 00:09:08.453 --> 00:09:11.156
  • Is tens of thousands of people apprehended. and what this shows
  • 00:09:11.156 --> 00:09:14.660
  • You, it shows you the level of concern. it shows you the level
  • 00:09:14.660 --> 00:09:17.863
  • Of fear that the iranian government is feeling. one from
  • 00:09:17.863 --> 00:09:21.099
  • Israeli infiltration of their intelligence organizations, but
  • 00:09:21.099 --> 00:09:24.703
  • Two from their own people. and we'll break that down. the
  • 00:09:24.703 --> 00:09:28.407
  • International community is obviously very concerned with
  • 00:09:28.407 --> 00:09:30.976
  • This turn of eventeople for many, many years have been
  • 00:09:30.976 --> 00:09:33.812
  • Talking about the human rights violations taking place inside
  • 00:09:33.812 --> 00:09:37.316
  • Iran. and this means a very substantial escalation in that
  • 00:09:37.316 --> 00:09:42.554
  • Level of violence against its own civilians. the iranian
  • 00:09:42.554 --> 00:09:45.891
  • Government claims that many of these people were involved in
  • 00:09:45.891 --> 00:09:48.827
  • Direct espionage against the iranian government, taking
  • 00:09:48.827 --> 00:09:51.930
  • Photographs, releasing information, possibly positions
  • 00:09:51.930 --> 00:09:55.133
  • Of high uppers. executives within the government to israeli
  • 00:09:55.133 --> 00:09:59.037
  • And probably other intelligence organizations. but critics of
  • 00:09:59.037 --> 00:10:02.474
  • The iranian government claim that the story is more complex,
  • 00:10:02.474 --> 00:10:05.243
  • And, as has happened before, some of these arrests, some of
  • 00:10:05.243 --> 00:10:07.980
  • These executions are politically motivated. they're tool used to
  • 00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:12.184
  • Eliminate enemies of the state as they perceive them in a time
  • 00:10:12.184 --> 00:10:15.754
  • Of crisis, more than actually catching on to people that were
  • 00:10:15.754 --> 00:10:19.358
  • Involved in the espionage in one direct way or another, several
  • 00:10:19.358 --> 00:10:23.729
  • Times speaks to the iranian people in english. by the way,
  • 00:10:23.729 --> 00:10:26.565
  • Speaking to an iranian journalist, and he says the
  • 00:10:26.565 --> 00:10:29.101
  • Following. he says, people of iran, you are not our enemy. our
  • 00:10:29.101 --> 00:10:32.604
  • Enemy is the radical islamic government of iran. you are our
  • 00:10:32.604 --> 00:10:36.308
  • Allies, and we'd like to go back to living a peaceful life and a
  • 00:10:36.308 --> 00:10:39.511
  • Life of covenant with you, as we did in the times of the bible
  • 00:10:39.511 --> 00:10:43.415
  • And as we did before the islamic revolution. and he once again
  • 00:10:43.415 --> 00:10:46.685
  • This last week speaks to the people in iran, telling them now
  • 00:10:46.685 --> 00:10:49.955
  • Is a time for revolution against their government, and more so,
  • 00:10:49.955 --> 00:10:52.858
  • Reminding the iranian people that israel has made in parsi
  • 00:10:52.858 --> 00:10:56.461
  • The language of the iranian people, assets available online
  • 00:10:56.461 --> 00:10:59.931
  • To help with water shortages, to help with agricultural
  • 00:10:59.931 --> 00:11:03.568
  • Technology, technological solutions, specifically in arid
  • 00:11:03.568 --> 00:11:06.805
  • Areas. now, this is a very tongue in cheek comment on
  • 00:11:06.805 --> 00:11:09.474
  • Behalf of prime minister netanyahu. he's on the one hand
  • 00:11:09.474 --> 00:11:12.611
  • Telling the iranian people that he supports them and he's for
  • 00:11:12.611 --> 00:11:15.580
  • Them. and on the other hand, he's knocking down on the
  • 00:11:15.580 --> 00:11:18.750
  • Iranian government, pointing out their weakness, their inability
  • 00:11:18.750 --> 00:11:21.920
  • To supply water and the basic needs of life for the iranian
  • 00:11:21.920 --> 00:11:25.857
  • People. that has been a huge issue in the cause of
  • 00:11:25.857 --> 00:11:28.527
  • Demonstration and internal tensions within iran for weeks
  • 00:11:28.527 --> 00:11:31.730
  • Now. again, to remind you, iran has been experiencing record
  • 00:11:31.730 --> 00:11:34.166
  • Heat levels. they're unable to provide running water, they're
  • 00:11:34.166 --> 00:11:37.436
  • Unable to provide electricity to many parts of the country for
  • 00:11:37.436 --> 00:11:40.706
  • Most hours of the day. prime minister netanyahu doesn't miss
  • 00:11:40.706 --> 00:11:43.675
  • An opportunity to remind the iranian people what the fruit of
  • 00:11:43.675 --> 00:11:46.978
  • Their government looks like and what that means for them. now,
  • 00:11:46.978 --> 00:11:50.382
  • Back to pinto.
  • 00:11:50.382 --> 00:11:51.516
  • >> thank you very much, shoshani, for doing everything
  • 00:11:51.516 --> 00:11:54.619
  • That you can to bring us clarity in this very confusing
  • 00:11:54.619 --> 00:11:57.889
  • Situation. now let's move to israel. director samuel smadja
  • 00:11:57.889 --> 00:12:02.160
  • From our studio in jerusalem.
  • 00:12:02.160 --> 00:12:05.097
  • >> thank you, amir shalom, and welcome to our show. thank you.
  • 00:12:05.097 --> 00:12:10.135
  • Today we want to talk to amir on the relationship between the
  • 00:12:10.135 --> 00:12:13.405
  • Church and israel. we're here sitting in jerusalem after the
  • 00:12:13.405 --> 00:12:17.075
  • 7th of october, after this terrible, terrible massacre and
  • 00:12:17.075 --> 00:12:19.711
  • An ongoing war for already 16 to 17 months. and we're here, amir,
  • 00:12:19.711 --> 00:12:26.685
  • To try to explain to our dear brothers and sisters around the
  • 00:12:26.685 --> 00:12:30.322
  • World who stand with israel but have a hard time to defend t
  • 00:12:30.322 --> 00:12:34.893
  • Things that they see on television.
  • 00:12:34.893 --> 00:12:37.129
  • >> yes. and unfortunately, it's because they're being fed with
  • 00:12:37.129 --> 00:12:39.965
  • Lies and propaganda. and that's the other war people don't
  • 00:12:39.965 --> 00:12:44.636
  • Understand. we're fighting against. so when october 7th
  • 00:12:44.636 --> 00:12:48.573
  • Started, at the same day, another war started elsewhere
  • 00:12:48.573 --> 00:12:51.943
  • All around the world, which means everything has been
  • 00:12:51.943 --> 00:12:56.448
  • Prepared and ready for that moment. and that was an
  • 00:12:56.448 --> 00:13:01.953
  • Unprecedented campaign. online, social media, as well as in
  • 00:13:01.953 --> 00:13:07.692
  • Campuses, in universities all around america.
  • 00:13:07.692 --> 00:13:11.263
  • >> it's like the demon of anti-semitism broke loose.
  • 00:13:11.263 --> 00:13:15.901
  • >> yeah, it's definitely you nailed it. it's demonic. there's
  • 00:13:15.901 --> 00:13:20.071
  • No other way to describe it. because when somebody invades
  • 00:13:20.071 --> 00:13:22.841
  • Into your your home and you know, when he's butchering and
  • 00:13:22.841 --> 00:13:26.711
  • Raping and killing and burning alive, and then you the same
  • 00:13:26.711 --> 00:13:30.882
  • Day, you're being accuser being the person behind it and
  • 00:13:30.882 --> 00:13:34.152
  • The reason behind it, and the one that everybody should accuse
  • 00:13:34.152 --> 00:13:38.957
  • For then, you know, it has to be demonic. and i think that a lot
  • 00:13:38.957 --> 00:13:42.794
  • Of people were subjected to this brainwash because they watch
  • 00:13:42.794 --> 00:13:48.166
  • Television. they are on social media.
  • 00:13:48.166 --> 00:13:50.769
  • >> people watch television, people watch social media. how
  • 00:13:50.769 --> 00:13:54.673
  • Can we help them to stand with israel? let's be honest. the
  • 00:13:54.673 --> 00:13:58.677
  • Media tells you, okay, what happened? happened. why? to go
  • 00:13:58.677 --> 00:14:02.614
  • On.
  • 00:14:02.614 --> 00:14:03.815
  • >> well, i could have asked the same thing after pearl harbor.
  • 00:14:03.915 --> 00:14:05.650
  • Why didn't you just stop there? why would you go and bomb japan?
  • 00:14:05.650 --> 00:14:10.488
  • Well, bombing japan brought the end of the war. it wasn't pearl
  • 00:14:10.488 --> 00:14:14.492
  • Harbor. pearl harbor awoken the giant. it's the hiroshima and
  • 00:14:14.492 --> 00:14:19.164
  • Nagasaki that ended the war. you cannot live with a an enemy that
  • 00:14:19.164 --> 00:14:25.403
  • Wants to destroy you. and then think that if you stop in the
  • 00:14:25.403 --> 00:14:29.674
  • Middle, he won't try again. and i think it has a lot to do with
  • 00:14:29.674 --> 00:14:33.211
  • How we sell it and how we describe it. and i think that we
  • 00:14:33.211 --> 00:14:37.115
  • Have to come with facts. we have to come with truth and we have
  • 00:14:37.115 --> 00:14:42.487
  • To convince the people. but remember, anti-semitism is
  • 00:14:42.487 --> 00:14:46.358
  • There. since israel left egypt. we're not going to change.
  • 00:14:46.358 --> 00:14:51.162
  • >> a great point.
  • 00:14:51.162 --> 00:14:52.430
  • >> yeah. from the moment we left egypt, people tried to kill us
  • 00:14:52.430 --> 00:14:55.400
  • Along the way all the way. and then when they can't fight us in
  • 00:14:55.400 --> 00:14:59.738
  • The physical, then the king of moab wants balaam to proclaim,
  • 00:14:59.738 --> 00:15:05.877
  • To curse.
  • 00:15:05.877 --> 00:15:06.411
  • >> to curse.
  • 00:15:06.411 --> 00:15:07.579
  • >> so it's a spiritual one now. so they understand, but they
  • 00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:10.715
  • Cannot. you see, one of the problems of our enemies is that
  • 00:15:10.715 --> 00:15:13.885
  • They can spread lies as much as they want. it doesn't change the
  • 00:15:13.885 --> 00:15:17.022
  • Fact that we're still here. the idea of the return of the jews
  • 00:15:17.022 --> 00:15:22.060
  • Back to the land is a miracle. the idea of the survival of a
  • 00:15:22.060 --> 00:15:27.098
  • Nation after 2000 years, not in its land, is a miracle. the
  • 00:15:27.098 --> 00:15:32.103
  • Rebirth of the language is a miracle. the complete rebirth of
  • 00:15:32.103 --> 00:15:36.374
  • The land. the land that was dead is a miracle. and so if you
  • 00:15:36.374 --> 00:15:42.213
  • Detach israel's return and israel's existence from the act
  • 00:15:42.213 --> 00:15:46.751
  • Of god, the word of god, the promises of god, you'll never be
  • 00:15:46.751 --> 00:15:50.155
  • Able to.
  • 00:15:50.155 --> 00:15:51.323
  • >> i'll have to stop you here and i'll tell you why. please.
  • 00:15:51.423 --> 00:15:53.391
  • Because we see new voices in the church, voices that says,
  • 00:15:53.391 --> 00:15:58.663
  • Listen, maybe the israelites, the past was the elected one,
  • 00:15:58.663 --> 00:16:04.135
  • And so on. but the israel of today are not really a light to
  • 00:16:04.135 --> 00:16:08.306
  • The nations. maybe god has replaced this israel with the
  • 00:16:08.306 --> 00:16:13.878
  • Church, and he's calling today the church to be a light to the
  • 00:16:13.878 --> 00:16:17.849
  • Nations. and the church is sending missionaries all over
  • 00:16:17.849 --> 00:16:20.418
  • The world. and the church is being a great light wherever
  • 00:16:20.418 --> 00:16:24.055
  • They are.
  • 00:16:24.055 --> 00:16:25.757
  • >> and the world is wonderful right now. yes.
  • 00:16:25.757 --> 00:16:28.293
  • >> and the world is much better.
  • 00:16:28.293 --> 00:16:30.628
  • >> you see where i'm going? yeahe world is in worse
  • 00:16:30.628 --> 00:16:33.665
  • Condition now than it was.
  • 00:16:33.665 --> 00:16:35.467
  • >> so help me.
  • 00:16:35.467 --> 00:16:36.501
  • >> i'll help you.
  • 00:16:36.501 --> 00:16:37.702
  • >> my idea is i want to give. people were watching. i want to
  • 00:16:37.802 --> 00:16:40.205
  • Help you guys to learn and to understand and to have answers
  • 00:16:40.205 --> 00:16:45.610
  • To those very hard questions.
  • 00:16:45.610 --> 00:16:47.178
  • >> to me, they're not hard. and i tell you why. if you read the
  • 00:16:47.178 --> 00:16:50.915
  • Bible.
  • 00:16:50.915 --> 00:16:51.783
  • >> that's your job. people are watching us.
  • 00:16:51.883 --> 00:16:53.151
  • >> it's hard. no, i understand.
  • 00:16:53.151 --> 00:16:54.853
  • >> people are going in the university and have to stand for
  • 00:16:54.853 --> 00:16:58.556
  • Israel, where christians are. what about being a light? what
  • 00:16:58.556 --> 00:17:02.894
  • About giving the other cheek? what about forgiving your enemy?
  • 00:17:02.894 --> 00:17:05.764
  • And so on and so on. and so those are hard, hard questions.
  • 00:17:05.764 --> 00:17:09.234
  • >> yeah. and so first of all, we have to understand that nowhere
  • 00:17:09.234 --> 00:17:12.837
  • In the bible god said to israel, once you're perfect, then i will
  • 00:17:12.837 --> 00:17:17.108
  • Do what i need to do with you. never, if even in the very
  • 00:17:17.108 --> 00:17:21.179
  • Chapters where he.
  • 00:17:21.179 --> 00:17:22.180
  • >> which means not a result, it's not a merit.
  • 00:17:22.180 --> 00:17:24.682
  • >> no, no it's not. otherwise he would tell abraham, abraham, i
  • 00:17:24.682 --> 00:17:27.986
  • Want you to first be perfect and then i will bless you. it's not
  • 00:17:27.986 --> 00:17:31.523
  • Even there. and the idea that you need to be perfect for him
  • 00:17:31.523 --> 00:17:35.026
  • Then to save you is not even christian. it's not even in the
  • 00:17:35.026 --> 00:17:39.030
  • Gospel. he loved us first. we love him because he loved us
  • 00:17:39.030 --> 00:17:42.233
  • First. if you go back to the book of romans, you see that
  • 00:17:42.233 --> 00:17:48.039
  • Even there paul the apostle, the orthodox jew that found the
  • 00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:54.145
  • Messiah, paul the apostle, the pharisaic jew said concerning
  • 00:17:54.145 --> 00:17:59.918
  • The gospel, they might be they are your enemies. concerning the
  • 00:17:59.918 --> 00:18:04.255
  • Election. they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. in
  • 00:18:04.255 --> 00:18:08.593
  • Other words, because the gifts and the promises of god are
  • 00:18:08.593 --> 00:18:12.564
  • Irrevocable, he basically said, it's not.
  • 00:18:12.564 --> 00:18:15.400
  • >> something which means you do not believe that anybody can
  • 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.203
  • Replace israel, not the church and not anybody else.
  • 00:18:18.203 --> 00:18:20.772
  • >> no, no, i believe that god said, god said, one day israel
  • 00:18:20.772 --> 00:18:25.777
  • Will not be a separate nation before me. one day it will
  • 00:18:25.777 --> 00:18:29.848
  • Happen. you know, when he said it to the prophet jeremiah, he
  • 00:18:29.848 --> 00:18:33.852
  • Said in chapter 31, he said, when the moon and the stars and
  • 00:18:33.852 --> 00:18:39.090
  • The sun will no longer be there, then israel will not be a nation
  • 00:18:39.090 --> 00:18:44.162
  • Before me.
  • 00:18:44.162 --> 00:18:44.929
  • >> that's all. wait for that day.
  • 00:18:44.929 --> 00:18:46.731
  • >> and so that's why, by the way, i'm telling the ayatollahs,
  • 00:18:46.731 --> 00:18:49.901
  • If you really want to destroy israel, then develop a weapon
  • 00:18:49.901 --> 00:18:54.772
  • That destroyed the moon, the stars, and the sun, because only
  • 00:18:54.772 --> 00:18:57.909
  • Then israel will not exist. here we are sitting. we're next to
  • 00:18:57.909 --> 00:19:02.313
  • The temple mount. we're in jerusalem. for nearly 2000
  • 00:19:02.313 --> 00:19:06.251
  • Years, we didn't have access.
  • 00:19:06.251 --> 00:19:07.952
  • >> and by the way, that's not a green. that's not a green
  • 00:19:07.952 --> 00:19:11.055
  • Screen.
  • 00:19:11.055 --> 00:19:11.723
  • >> no, it's not a green screen.
  • 00:19:11.823 --> 00:19:13.124
  • >> screen.
  • 00:19:13.124 --> 00:19:14.325
  • >> that's a reality. exactly. and here we are. who would have
  • 00:19:14.425 --> 00:19:16.628
  • Thought i'm your announcer years ago that the jewish people would
  • 00:19:16.628 --> 00:19:19.831
  • Be back in their land, will be outnumbered? in the war of
  • 00:19:19.831 --> 00:19:23.868
  • Independence, seven nations invaded into israel on on the
  • 00:19:23.868 --> 00:19:28.306
  • Day of the declaration of independence. seven well
  • 00:19:28.306 --> 00:19:32.343
  • Equipped israel had no iron dome. it had god's dome.
  • 00:19:32.343 --> 00:19:38.416
  • >> amen.
  • 00:19:38.416 --> 00:19:38.950
  • >> and we survived.
  • 00:19:38.950 --> 00:19:40.251
  • >> you know, i mean, i think the more that we understand the role
  • 00:19:40.251 --> 00:19:44.355
  • Of israel, the more that we can understand and see how faithful
  • 00:19:44.355 --> 00:19:50.228
  • God was for the people of israel, although they were not
  • 00:19:50.228 --> 00:19:54.432
  • Faithful, although they put his name in shame. that should
  • 00:19:54.432 --> 00:19:58.269
  • Encourage us, because we know in our daily walk that we're not
  • 00:19:58.269 --> 00:20:02.607
  • Always 100%. we know that we fall, we know that we turn
  • 00:20:02.607 --> 00:20:07.245
  • Against god. but god is faithful and god is full of love. and i
  • 00:20:07.245 --> 00:20:12.717
  • Think the more we understand this love story between god and
  • 00:20:12.717 --> 00:20:17.021
  • The people of israel, the more we are more secure in our faith
  • 00:20:17.021 --> 00:20:21.392
  • And encouraging our faith.
  • 00:20:21.392 --> 00:20:22.627
  • >> i always say, first of all, in the word of god in book of
  • 00:20:22.627 --> 00:20:26.097
  • Romans it says, even if we are faithless, he is faithful
  • 00:20:26.097 --> 00:20:29.434
  • Because he cannot deny himself. but also i will say, israel is
  • 00:20:29.434 --> 00:20:31.769
  • The insurance policy of every christian around the world.
  • 00:20:31.769 --> 00:20:34.239
  • Because if god would one day change his mind about israel,
  • 00:20:34.239 --> 00:20:37.775
  • What would make him not change his mind about you? are we
  • 00:20:37.775 --> 00:20:40.945
  • Perfect? no. see, you cannot say until israel is perfect, i don't
  • 00:20:40.945 --> 00:20:46.784
  • Think god is going to use them. well, it's not exactly biblical.
  • 00:20:46.784 --> 00:20:51.889
  • And to begin with, god has a separate, different plan for
  • 00:20:51.889 --> 00:20:56.160
  • Israel. eventually, all israel will be saved eventually, to
  • 00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:02.000
  • Obviously live eternally eternal life, you'll have to believe the
  • 00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:05.169
  • Messiah. but there are two parallel groups that god is
  • 00:21:05.169 --> 00:21:08.773
  • Using right now, israel and the church. and they're neither one
  • 00:21:08.773 --> 00:21:13.878
  • Replaced. the other in god in due time is going to deal with
  • 00:21:13.878 --> 00:21:17.982
  • Each and every one of them according to his word. but when
  • 00:21:17.982 --> 00:21:20.752
  • You claim that god replaced one with another, you come against
  • 00:21:20.752 --> 00:21:24.122
  • God's character, god's word, god's promises. and it shows the
  • 00:21:24.122 --> 00:21:28.926
  • Lack of understanding of scripture if you even read it.
  • 00:21:28.926 --> 00:21:31.729
  • >> when i look at the church, i see people who love israel. i
  • 00:21:31.729 --> 00:21:35.233
  • See people who believe that god has replaced israel. but there's
  • 00:21:35.233 --> 00:21:39.737
  • Another group who doesn't care. yeah, i'm a great christian. i
  • 00:21:39.737 --> 00:21:45.743
  • Go to church, i do the right thing. i give my tithe, i don't
  • 00:21:45.743 --> 00:21:54.052
  • Curse, i love people. what do i care about israel?
  • 00:21:54.052 --> 00:21:58.389
  • >> first of all, what you just described is a religious person.
  • 00:21:58.389 --> 00:22:01.693
  • There's a big difference between being a religious person who
  • 00:22:01.693 --> 00:22:04.095
  • Does everything according and check all the boxes. i am a good
  • 00:22:04.095 --> 00:22:07.765
  • Man, i do this, i do.
  • 00:22:07.765 --> 00:22:09.267
  • >> that, so help me help them help.
  • 00:22:09.267 --> 00:22:10.968
  • >> so again, no one ever can be born a christian. and that's the
  • 00:22:10.968 --> 00:22:16.741
  • Problem. these people think they were born christians and they go
  • 00:22:16.741 --> 00:22:19.577
  • To church.
  • 00:22:19.577 --> 00:22:20.178
  • >> they're good people.
  • 00:22:20.178 --> 00:22:21.412
  • >> yeah, but show me one person that is good. you know, the
  • 00:22:21.412 --> 00:22:24.315
  • Bible says that all have gone astray. now, the thing is this
  • 00:22:24.315 --> 00:22:28.152
  • When you understand that you need a second birth, when you
  • 00:22:28.152 --> 00:22:31.089
  • Understand thau need to be born again. and by the way, this
  • 00:22:31.089 --> 00:22:34.759
  • These words were told to the jews in john chapter three to
  • 00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:38.096
  • Nicodemus. so we know if you understand the regeneration, the
  • 00:22:38.096 --> 00:22:42.133
  • New birth, the new life, that you need to have that new life
  • 00:22:42.133 --> 00:22:47.004
  • With, obviously, the holy spirit now in you, reigning, dwelling
  • 00:22:47.004 --> 00:22:51.542
  • In you, the indwelling of the holy spirit in you, the spirit
  • 00:22:51.542 --> 00:22:54.912
  • Of the god of israel will remind you, israel.
  • 00:22:54.912 --> 00:22:58.182
  • >> i think that's the key, the. spirit of god of israel.
  • 00:22:58.182 --> 00:23:02.053
  • >> and how can the spirit of the god of israel make someone hate
  • 00:23:02.053 --> 00:23:05.623
  • Israel, it.
  • 00:23:05.623 --> 00:23:06.424
  • >> or not, care about?
  • 00:23:06.424 --> 00:23:08.226
  • >> yeah, but not care leads you eventually to believe whatever
  • 00:23:08.226 --> 00:23:12.063
  • Someone tells you because you don't have a solid ground. and
  • 00:23:12.063 --> 00:23:15.299
  • So i believe, i believe there's a lot of people who don't
  • 00:23:15.299 --> 00:23:19.670
  • Really, truly understand what it means to even be a believer.
  • 00:23:19.670 --> 00:23:24.442
  • >> i mean, we're sitting here in the balcony of tbn and this
  • 00:23:24.442 --> 00:23:27.245
  • Beautiful, beautiful studio. we're in the midst of a war.
  • 00:23:27.245 --> 00:23:31.082
  • There are christ watching us from all over the world. do you
  • 00:23:31.082 --> 00:23:33.718
  • Have any message?
  • 00:23:33.718 --> 00:23:35.186
  • >> yeah, i can tell you that. i've been to the most peaceful
  • 00:23:35.186 --> 00:23:39.090
  • Countries on planet earth, and yet the highest suicide rate
  • 00:23:39.090 --> 00:23:43.060
  • Ever is there. it doesn't matter if you live in a war zone or in
  • 00:23:43.060 --> 00:23:47.398
  • The most peaceful. the question is, do you have peace with god?
  • 00:23:47.398 --> 00:23:50.568
  • And i would i would encourage people to find peace with god
  • 00:23:50.568 --> 00:23:53.504
  • Through his word and through faith in the work that he has
  • 00:23:53.504 --> 00:23:58.109
  • Already done 2000 years ago. don't put your trust on your
  • 00:23:58.109 --> 00:24:02.713
  • Effort, on on your ability. put your trust in what he already
  • 00:24:02.713 --> 00:24:07.051
  • Did and hold on to that. because again, both of us live in a war
  • 00:24:07.051 --> 00:24:11.923
  • Zone. i need to run to the bomb shelter a few times a day
  • 00:24:11.923 --> 00:24:15.827
  • Sometimes, but i don't lose hope. i actually, i'm excited. i
  • 00:24:15.827 --> 00:24:18.262
  • Know exactly where i'm going. i know exactly what's going on. i
  • 00:24:18.262 --> 00:24:22.700
  • Understand the times and the seasons and we i divide the word
  • 00:24:22.700 --> 00:24:26.971
  • Rightly. but if you are far away from god, and if you don't
  • 00:24:26.971 --> 00:24:31.309
  • Eve, if you don't have that living hope, you can even the
  • 00:24:31.309 --> 00:24:34.479
  • Most peaceful you can, even new zealand, and still think about
  • 00:24:34.479 --> 00:24:39.183
  • Death and end your life and not want to live because you don't
  • 00:24:39.183 --> 00:24:43.988
  • Have hope. and that anchor that that hope is an anchor to our
  • 00:24:43.988 --> 00:24:48.559
  • Soul is. hebrews says, so our faith is an anchor, and that
  • 00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:53.898
  • Anchor is in our soul.
  • 00:24:53.898 --> 00:24:56.467
  • >> if you're watching us today and you're going through a
  • 00:24:56.467 --> 00:24:59.971
  • Terrible time, remember the hope that we have in the messiah.
  • 00:24:59.971 --> 00:25:03.541
  • Remember how faithful god was for the people of israel
  • 00:25:03.541 --> 00:25:06.911
  • Throughout, throughout the history. he'll be faithful to
  • 00:25:06.911 --> 00:25:10.047
  • You. just turn back to him. raise your voice, look up to the
  • 00:25:10.047 --> 00:25:14.352
  • Finished work of the messiah, and be encouraged. because god
  • 00:25:14.352 --> 00:25:18.022
  • Is in control. god loves you. god cares about you, and god
  • 00:25:18.022 --> 00:25:23.661
  • Wants to raise you up from wherever you are. amir tsarfati.
  • 00:25:23.661 --> 00:25:28.032
  • Thank you. thank you for the hope. thank you for the
  • 00:25:28.032 --> 00:25:31.636
  • Encouragement that you gave us today. thank you for opening
  • 00:25:31.636 --> 00:25:33.304
  • This whole confusing subject to people who are watching us.
  • 00:25:33.304 --> 00:25:37.375
  • Thank you amir.
  • 00:25:37.375 --> 00:25:37.909
  • >> thank you samuel.
  • 00:25:37.909 --> 00:25:39.176
  • >> and once again to you all. shalom. from jerusalem, back to
  • 00:25:39.176 --> 00:25:43.481
  • You. yeah.
  • 00:25:43.481 --> 00:25:44.882
  • >> wow. thank you very much, samuel. that was fascinating.
  • 00:25:44.882 --> 00:25:49.554
  • And you guys at home stay with us for prayer. we'll go out for
  • 00:25:49.554 --> 00:25:53.524
  • A short commercial break, after which we'll return to pray
  • 00:25:53.524 --> 00:25:57.962
  • Together for the peace of jerusalem.
  • 00:25:57.962 --> 00:26:05.136
  • >> the middle east is complicated. evil thrives here
  • 00:26:05.136 --> 00:26:08.005
  • And wears many different faces.
  • 00:26:08.005 --> 00:26:10.441
  • >> but in the middle of it all is israel, a tiny democracy
  • 00:26:10.441 --> 00:26:15.146
  • Fighting for its life against extremist regimes and terrorist
  • 00:26:15.146 --> 00:26:18.716
  • Armies that glorify death, not life.
  • 00:26:18.716 --> 00:26:21.619
  • >> and yet somehow the world calls us the aggressor.
  • 00:26:21.619 --> 00:26:25.590
  • >> because evil has the narrative and twisted the truth.
  • 00:26:25.590 --> 00:26:29.594
  • >> and the west will. too often it believes the lies, because
  • 00:26:29.594 --> 00:26:33.431
  • Comprehending such evil is hard. and when people can't understand
  • 00:26:33.431 --> 00:26:37.101
  • It, they misplace the blame.
  • 00:26:37.101 --> 00:26:39.203
  • >> this battle isn't just about israel. this is a threat to the
  • 00:26:39.203 --> 00:26:43.074
  • Entire free world.
  • 00:26:43.074 --> 00:26:44.642
  • >> because when the truth dies, freedom dies with it.
  • 00:26:44.642 --> 00:26:47.878
  • >> so stand with israel, defend the truth, and make sure it gets
  • 00:26:47.878 --> 00:26:52.583
  • Out to the entire world. go to. israel and donate now. our
  • 00:26:52.583 --> 00:27:00.825
  • Future depends on it.
  • 00:27:00.825 --> 00:27:05.996
  • Future depends on it.
  • 00:27:05.996 --> 00:27:09.120
  • Thank you for coming back to us guys. i hope you understand that
  • 00:27:10.388 --> 00:27:14.992
  • The reason that all these nations hate israel and launch
  • 00:27:14.992 --> 00:27:20.098
  • Attacks against the jewish people around the world is
  • 00:27:20.098 --> 00:27:23.568
  • Spiritual. this is a spiritual war. the bible tells us about
  • 00:27:23.568 --> 00:27:27.572
  • It. and how do we fight a spiritual war? we pray god is
  • 00:27:27.572 --> 00:27:32.944
  • Listening to our prayers, and he's showing again and again
  • 00:27:32.944 --> 00:27:36.814
  • That he's faithful to his promises to the people of
  • 00:27:36.814 --> 00:27:40.518
  • Israel, and he will be faithful to his promises to you. and
  • 00:27:40.518 --> 00:27:44.789
  • That's why the enemies of israel hate us so much. let's unite in
  • 00:27:44.789 --> 00:27:49.227
  • Prayer. let's pray for the hostages to return home safely
  • 00:27:49.227 --> 00:27:53.931
  • To their families. let's pray for the idf soldiers that are
  • 00:27:53.931 --> 00:27:57.869
  • Preparing for a wider operation to conquer gaza city. it's very
  • 00:27:57.869 --> 00:28:02.440
  • Dangerous. let's pray for our leaders, young leaders make
  • 00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:05.977
  • The wise, godly decisions in this situation. let's unite in
  • 00:28:05.977 --> 00:28:10.715
  • Prayer for the people of israel for all the innocent lives in
  • 00:28:10.715 --> 00:28:14.619
  • This region. if it's in gaza, lebanon, syria, yemen that are
  • 00:28:14.619 --> 00:28:19.624
  • Affected by these terrorists, let's unite in prayer for the
  • 00:28:19.624 --> 00:28:24.061
  • Peace of jerusalem.
  • 00:28:24.128 --> 00:28:32.000
