That trump had such a landslide victory.
00:01:12.121 --> 00:01:13.522
A landslide victory. >> right.
00:01:13.589 --> 00:01:14.389
>> right. and there was so much
00:01:14.456 --> 00:01:15.724
And there was so much uncertainty preceding
00:01:15.791 --> 00:01:17.459
Uncertainty preceding the election that if it was very
00:01:17.526 --> 00:01:19.728
The election that if it was very close on either side, right,
00:01:19.795 --> 00:01:21.597
Close on either side, right, if it was indecisive,
00:01:21.663 --> 00:01:23.866
If it was indecisive, there could
00:01:23.932 --> 00:01:24.466
There could have been violence,
00:01:24.533 --> 00:01:25.067
Have been violence, there could have been rioting,
00:01:25.134 --> 00:01:26.001
There could have been rioting, there could have been
00:01:26.068 --> 00:01:26.635
There could have been widespread accusations
00:01:26.702 --> 00:01:27.936
Widespread accusations of voter fraud,
00:01:28.003 --> 00:01:29.204
Of voter fraud, you know.
00:01:29.271 --> 00:01:30.472
You know. i'm thankful,
00:01:30.539 --> 00:01:31.240
I'm thankful, i'm thankful that there
00:01:31.306 --> 00:01:32.407
I'm thankful that there was a clear decisive victory.
00:01:32.474 --> 00:01:33.842
Was a clear decisive victory. >> and as of today,
00:01:33.909 --> 00:01:36.311
>> and as of today, there hasn't been rioting,
00:01:36.378 --> 00:01:37.546
There hasn't been rioting, there hasn't been any violence,
00:01:37.613 --> 00:01:39.248
There hasn't been any violence, although it was predicted
00:01:39.314 --> 00:01:40.315
Although it was predicted that there would be terrible
00:01:40.382 --> 00:01:41.383
That there would be terrible violence regardless
00:01:41.450 --> 00:01:42.885
Violence regardless of who was elected.
00:01:42.951 --> 00:01:43.919

>> sure. and many, jonathan,
00:01:45.320 --> 00:01:46.455
And many, jonathan, who are watching today,
00:01:46.522 --> 00:01:48.056
Who are watching today, the president elect may
00:01:48.123 --> 00:01:49.791
The president elect may be the one you voted for,
00:01:49.858 --> 00:01:51.059
Be the one you voted for, and for some who
00:01:51.126 --> 00:01:51.827
And for some who are watching, he may not.
00:01:51.894 --> 00:01:53.795
Are watching, he may not. >> one caution
00:01:53.862 --> 00:01:56.265
>> one caution is this messiah complex.
00:01:56.331 --> 00:01:58.767
Is this messiah complex. trump is not
00:01:58.834 --> 00:01:59.701
Trump is not the savior for america.
00:01:59.768 --> 00:02:01.336
The savior for america. this is so important.
00:02:01.403 --> 00:02:02.704
This is so important. he's not going to save america.
00:02:02.771 --> 00:02:04.740
He's not going to save america. he's an amazing individual
00:02:04.806 --> 00:02:07.276
He's an amazing individual by any standards,
00:02:07.342 --> 00:02:08.710
By any standards, but he's not the messiah.
00:02:08.777 --> 00:02:10.345
But he's not the messiah. and it's very important that
00:02:10.412 --> 00:02:12.147
And it's very important that our focus as believers
00:02:12.214 --> 00:02:14.082
Our focus as believers is on the king of kings,
00:02:14.149 --> 00:02:16.351
Is on the king of kings, the lord of lords,
00:02:16.418 --> 00:02:17.252
The lord of lords, the president of presidents.
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:19.454
The president of presidents. and my prayer is
00:02:19.521 --> 00:02:20.989
And my prayer is that donald trump,
00:02:21.056 --> 00:02:22.925
That donald trump, who is now saying that
00:02:22.991 --> 00:02:25.494
Who is now saying that the lord spared his life,
00:02:25.561 --> 00:02:27.262
The lord spared his life, will grow into
00:02:27.329 --> 00:02:28.197
Will grow into a relationship with god.
00:02:28.263 --> 00:02:29.965
A relationship with god. this is really something
00:02:30.032 --> 00:02:30.799
This is really something on my heart.
00:02:30.866 --> 00:02:31.800
On my heart. and i wanna encourage all of you
00:02:31.867 --> 00:02:33.569
And i wanna encourage all of you that love donald trump,
00:02:33.635 --> 00:02:34.436
That love donald trump, that voted for donald trump,
00:02:34.503 --> 00:02:36.371
That voted for donald trump, that are thrilled
00:02:36.438 --> 00:02:37.239
That are thrilled that he's the next president,
00:02:37.306 --> 00:02:38.574
That he's the next president, he's the 47th president,
00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:40.709
He's the 47th president, will pray for him
00:02:40.776 --> 00:02:41.944
Will pray for him to become more and more godly,
00:02:42.010 --> 00:02:44.446
To become more and more godly, more and more devoted
00:02:44.513 --> 00:02:45.614
More and more devoted to biblical world view.
00:02:45.681 --> 00:02:50.018
To biblical world view. i don't think he's there yet,
00:02:50.085 --> 00:02:51.086
I don't think he's there yet, i honestly don't,
00:02:51.153 --> 00:02:52.087
I honestly don't, but i think it's a start.
00:02:52.154 --> 00:02:53.188
But i think it's a start. >> right.
00:02:53.255 --> 00:02:53.488
>> right. it's a great
00:02:53.555 --> 00:02:54.056
It's a great prayer point, jonathan.
00:02:54.122 --> 00:02:54.590
Prayer point, jonathan. >> one other point,
00:02:54.656 --> 00:02:55.190
>> one other point, on the other side,
00:02:55.257 --> 00:02:56.425
On the other side, there's a small group
00:02:56.491 --> 00:02:57.192
There's a small group that are watching,
00:02:57.259 --> 00:02:59.027
That are watching, and this is true
00:02:59.094 --> 00:02:59.661
And this is true of the younger generations,
00:02:59.728 --> 00:03:01.863
Of the younger generations, are in --
00:03:01.930 --> 00:03:02.497
Are in -- they're in despair because
00:03:02.564 --> 00:03:04.933
They're in despair because donald trump has been
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:06.501
Donald trump has been portrayed as a hitler,
00:03:06.568 --> 00:03:08.971
Portrayed as a hitler, as the destroyer
00:03:09.037 --> 00:03:11.540
As the destroyer of our democracy.
00:03:11.607 --> 00:03:13.642
Of our democracy. that is not the case either.
00:03:13.709 --> 00:03:15.110
That is not the case either. so, i just wanna talk
00:03:15.177 --> 00:03:16.011
So, i just wanna talk about both sides.
00:03:16.078 --> 00:03:17.312
About both sides. he's not the savior,
00:03:17.379 --> 00:03:18.013
He's not the savior, and he's not hitler,
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:19.381
And he's not hitler, and he's not
00:03:19.448 --> 00:03:20.015
And he's not the destroyer of democracy.
00:03:20.082 --> 00:03:22.150
The destroyer of democracy. we will --
00:03:22.217 --> 00:03:24.086
We will -- god is watching
00:03:24.152 --> 00:03:24.453
God is watching over this country,
00:03:24.519 --> 00:03:25.754
Over this country, and i believe that
00:03:25.821 --> 00:03:26.822
And i believe that he's not done with america.
00:03:26.888 --> 00:03:28.590
He's not done with america. and again, also,
00:03:28.657 --> 00:03:30.025
And again, also, if you are in despair
00:03:30.092 --> 00:03:32.160
If you are in despair that donald trump is our
00:03:32.227 --> 00:03:33.495
That donald trump is our next president,
00:03:33.562 --> 00:03:34.630
Next president, look above the political
00:03:34.696 --> 00:03:36.431
Look above the political scenario and look to the one
00:03:36.498 --> 00:03:38.600
Scenario and look to the one who's seated on the throne.
00:03:38.667 --> 00:03:41.303
Who's seated on the throne. god is in control
00:03:41.370 --> 00:03:42.638
God is in control and the kingdom of god
00:03:42.704 --> 00:03:43.939
And the kingdom of god has not been shaken,
00:03:44.006 --> 00:03:45.274
Has not been shaken, there's no division in
00:03:45.340 --> 00:03:46.541
There's no division in the kingdom of god,
00:03:46.608 --> 00:03:47.776
The kingdom of god, and we have to work now
00:03:47.843 --> 00:03:49.778
And we have to work now on bringing
00:03:49.845 --> 00:03:51.146
On bringing the country back together.
00:03:51.213 --> 00:03:52.381
The country back together. >> absolutely.
00:03:52.447 --> 00:03:52.948
>> absolutely. >> as believers.
00:03:53.015 --> 00:03:53.482
>> as believers. >> absolutely.
00:03:53.548 --> 00:03:53.882
>> absolutely. >> that's our job.
00:03:53.949 --> 00:03:54.650
>> that's our job. we're agents of reconciliation.
00:03:54.716 --> 00:03:57.919
We're agents of reconciliation. we're a priesthood, right?
00:03:57.986 --> 00:04:00.689
We're a priesthood, right? called to bring reconciliation.
00:04:00.756 --> 00:04:02.491
Called to bring reconciliation. i just wanted to say that,
00:04:02.557 --> 00:04:03.558
I just wanted to say that, this is an important inverse.
00:04:03.625 --> 00:04:04.559
This is an important inverse. >> and it's really
00:04:04.626 --> 00:04:05.560
>> and it's really a matter of prayer.
00:04:05.627 --> 00:04:06.361
A matter of prayer. and i'll say for many
00:04:06.428 --> 00:04:07.829
And i'll say for many who may be saying,
00:04:07.896 --> 00:04:09.431
Who may be saying, "the person i voted
00:04:09.498 --> 00:04:09.965
"the person i voted for is in office,
00:04:10.032 --> 00:04:11.400
For is in office, praise the lord."
00:04:11.466 --> 00:04:12.834
Praise the lord." don't stop praying.
00:04:12.901 --> 00:04:13.869
Don't stop praying. and we're gonna get
00:04:13.935 --> 00:04:14.736
And we're gonna get into some specific ways,
00:04:14.803 --> 00:04:17.439
Into some specific ways, i'll spit it out,
00:04:17.506 --> 00:04:18.173
I'll spit it out, some specific ways that you can
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:19.841
Some specific ways that you can continue praying in this episode
00:04:19.908 --> 00:04:21.276
Continue praying in this episode for the united states,
00:04:21.343 --> 00:04:22.177
For the united states, for revival in america,
00:04:22.244 --> 00:04:23.545
For revival in america, especially for israel
00:04:23.612 --> 00:04:24.813
Especially for israel and for the jewish people
00:04:24.880 --> 00:04:26.048
And for the jewish people as times remain tough.
00:04:26.114 --> 00:04:28.150

Read this. >> so jonathan,
00:04:46.835 --> 00:04:47.302
>> so jonathan, this is romans 13:1,
00:04:47.369 --> 00:04:51.006
This is romans 13:1, and the context here is paul
00:04:51.073 --> 00:04:53.809
And the context here is paul speaking to believers, really,
00:04:53.875 --> 00:04:56.845
Speaking to believers, really, believers in jesus,
00:04:56.912 --> 00:04:58.080
Believers in jesus, believers in yeshua.
00:04:58.146 --> 00:04:59.047
Believers in yeshua. and we have to remember
00:04:59.114 --> 00:05:00.382
And we have to remember that the ceasars,
00:05:00.449 --> 00:05:01.583
That the ceasars, the leaders in the roman empire
00:05:01.650 --> 00:05:03.752
The leaders in the roman empire were treacherous,
00:05:03.819 --> 00:05:05.520
Were treacherous, dangerous, horrific,
00:05:05.587 --> 00:05:07.622
Dangerous, horrific, self-centered leaders.
00:05:07.689 --> 00:05:08.824
Self-centered leaders. i mean it's --
00:05:08.890 --> 00:05:09.891
I mean it's -- what the roman church,
00:05:09.958 --> 00:05:12.994
What the roman church, if you will,
00:05:13.061 --> 00:05:13.662
If you will, the ecclesia,
00:05:13.729 --> 00:05:14.463
The ecclesia, the body of believers
00:05:14.529 --> 00:05:15.430
The body of believers in this time when
00:05:15.497 --> 00:05:16.698
In this time when this book was written was going
00:05:16.765 --> 00:05:18.633
This book was written was going through probably far exceeded
00:05:18.700 --> 00:05:21.436
Through probably far exceeded any of the political upheaval,
00:05:21.503 --> 00:05:22.804
Any of the political upheaval, or scandal,
00:05:22.871 --> 00:05:23.805
Or scandal, or you know,
00:05:23.872 --> 00:05:24.506
Or you know, accusations against leaders that
00:05:24.573 --> 00:05:25.674
Accusations against leaders that we're seeing today.
00:05:25.741 --> 00:05:26.508
We're seeing today. >> and the great thing is that
00:05:26.575 --> 00:05:27.442
>> and the great thing is that the church was growing in
00:05:27.509 --> 00:05:28.577
The church was growing in the midst of turmoil.
00:05:28.643 --> 00:05:29.745
The midst of turmoil. >> and yet the church grew.
00:05:29.811 --> 00:05:30.679
>> and yet the church grew. >> economic upheaval,
00:05:30.746 --> 00:05:31.413
>> economic upheaval, political upheaval.
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:32.347
Political upheaval. >> so, even
00:05:32.414 --> 00:05:32.948
>> so, even in that context, okay?
00:05:33.014 --> 00:05:35.183
In that context, okay? this is what it --
00:05:35.250 --> 00:05:35.817
This is what it -- this is what paul says
00:05:35.884 --> 00:05:36.718
This is what paul says to the believers in rome.
00:05:36.785 --> 00:05:38.053
To the believers in rome. "let everyone be subject
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:39.187
To the governing authorities
00:05:39.287 --> 00:05:40.989
To the governing authorities for there is no
00:05:41.056 --> 00:05:41.790
For there is no authority except that
00:05:41.857 --> 00:05:44.059
Authority except that which god has established."
00:05:44.126 --> 00:05:45.861
Notice, there's no party.
00:05:45.961 --> 00:05:47.462
Notice, there's no party. there's no party.
00:05:47.529 --> 00:05:48.330
There's no party. there's no political
00:05:48.397 --> 00:05:48.930
There's no political persuasion in it.
00:05:48.997 --> 00:05:49.765
Persuasion in it. "there is no authority except
00:05:49.831 --> 00:05:51.400
That which god has established.
00:05:51.500 --> 00:05:52.768
That which god has established. the authorities that exist have
00:05:52.834 --> 00:05:54.736
The authorities that exist have been established by god.
00:05:54.803 --> 00:05:56.838
Been established by god. consequently, whoever rebels
00:05:56.905 --> 00:05:58.407
Consequently, whoever rebels against that authority is
00:05:58.473 --> 00:05:59.908
Against that authority is rebelling against what god has
00:05:59.975 --> 00:06:02.411
Rebelling against what god has instituted and in doing so will
00:06:02.477 --> 00:06:05.013
Instituted and in doing so will bring judgment on themselves."
00:06:05.080 --> 00:06:06.481
Bring judgment on themselves." and just skipping down
00:06:06.548 --> 00:06:07.482
And just skipping down a bit to verse 4,
00:06:07.549 --> 00:06:08.617
A bit to verse 4, it says,
00:06:08.683 --> 00:06:08.917
It says, "for the one in authority
00:06:08.984 --> 00:06:10.786
"for the one in authority is god's servant
00:06:10.852 --> 00:06:12.888
Is god's servant for your good."
00:06:12.954 --> 00:06:14.322
For your good." so, isn't that interesting?
00:06:14.389 --> 00:06:15.590
The lord establishes --
00:06:15.690 --> 00:06:16.758
The lord establishes -- the lord,
00:06:16.825 --> 00:06:17.459
The lord, in his foreknowledge,
00:06:17.526 --> 00:06:19.027
In his foreknowledge, in his omnipotence
00:06:19.094 --> 00:06:20.395
In his omnipotence being the king of kings
00:06:20.462 --> 00:06:21.163
Being the king of kings and lord of lords,
00:06:21.229 --> 00:06:22.097
And lord of lords, actually allows or establishes
00:06:22.164 --> 00:06:25.100
Actually allows or establishes who would be in authority.
00:06:25.167 --> 00:06:26.301
Who would be in authority. and it says their purpose
00:06:26.368 --> 00:06:27.836
And it says their purpose in god's economy,
00:06:27.903 --> 00:06:28.770
In god's economy, in god's kingdom
00:06:28.837 --> 00:06:29.971
In god's kingdom is to actually be a
00:06:30.038 --> 00:06:30.972
Is to actually be a servant of his purposes.
00:06:31.039 --> 00:06:32.274
Servant of his purposes. and they don't always appear
00:06:32.340 --> 00:06:33.442
And they don't always appear to be a great choice.
00:06:33.508 --> 00:06:35.410
To be a great choice. >> exactly.
00:06:35.477 --> 00:06:35.811
>> exactly. >> and they don't always
00:06:35.877 --> 00:06:36.478
>> and they don't always do the right thing.
00:06:36.545 --> 00:06:37.512
Do the right thing. >> right.
00:06:37.579 --> 00:06:38.180
>> right. >> but whether you're a
00:06:38.246 --> 00:06:39.214
>> but whether you're a huge donald trump fan
00:06:39.281 --> 00:06:40.782
Huge donald trump fan and you're elated,
00:06:40.849 --> 00:06:41.683
And you're elated, or you're in agony over this
00:06:41.750 --> 00:06:44.419
Or you're in agony over this because you think he's
00:06:44.486 --> 00:06:46.321
Because you think he's going to destroy democracy,
00:06:46.388 --> 00:06:48.523
Going to destroy democracy, we all must pray for this man.
00:06:48.590 --> 00:06:52.494
We all must pray for this man. that's what the bible demands.
00:06:52.561 --> 00:06:54.095
That's what the bible demands. we must pray for this man
00:06:54.162 --> 00:06:55.497
We must pray for this man and we must be reconcilers
00:06:55.564 --> 00:06:59.367
And we must be reconcilers to bring unity.
00:06:59.434 --> 00:07:01.002
To bring unity. we have to do that.
00:07:01.069 --> 00:07:01.837
We have to do that. >> that's the thing.
00:07:01.903 --> 00:07:02.504
>> that's the thing. and just, you know,
00:07:02.571 --> 00:07:03.238
And just, you know, real quickly
00:07:03.305 --> 00:07:03.772
Real quickly on that, jonathan.
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:04.906
On that, jonathan. it says, "they'll know you're my
00:07:04.973 --> 00:07:06.274
It says, "they'll know you're my disciples," right?
00:07:06.341 --> 00:07:07.175
Disciples," right? the bible --
00:07:07.242 --> 00:07:08.076
The bible -- the scriptures say very clearly,
00:07:08.143 --> 00:07:08.977
The scriptures say very clearly, "they'll know,
00:07:09.044 --> 00:07:09.511
"they'll know, the world will know
00:07:09.578 --> 00:07:11.079
The world will know that you're my followers
00:07:11.146 --> 00:07:13.715
That you're my followers by your love for one another."
00:07:13.782 --> 00:07:15.550
By your love for one another." so, the election's over,
00:07:15.617 --> 00:07:17.686
So, the election's over, the season of political discord
00:07:17.752 --> 00:07:19.454
The season of political discord and turmoil has come to an end,
00:07:19.521 --> 00:07:21.223
And turmoil has come to an end, we understand the clear
00:07:21.289 --> 00:07:22.324
We understand the clear answer right now.
00:07:22.390 --> 00:07:23.124
Answer right now. however you voted,
00:07:23.191 --> 00:07:24.593
However you voted, our calling is
00:07:24.659 --> 00:07:25.927
Our calling is to love one another.
00:07:25.994 --> 00:07:27.863
To love one another. that preempts political divides.
00:07:27.929 --> 00:07:29.898
That preempts political divides. it's a kingdom of god love.
00:07:29.965 --> 00:07:31.466
It's a kingdom of god love. >> ezra, one concern
00:07:31.533 --> 00:07:32.367
>> ezra, one concern that i have now.
00:07:32.434 --> 00:07:33.835
That i have now. >> sure.
00:07:33.902 --> 00:07:34.736
>> sure. >> with the election over.
00:07:34.803 --> 00:07:36.271
>> with the election over. we're not seeing riots etcetera,
00:07:36.338 --> 00:07:37.939
We're not seeing riots etcetera, but i think as changes are made,
00:07:38.006 --> 00:07:39.875
But i think as changes are made, and there's gonna be very
00:07:39.941 --> 00:07:41.076
And there's gonna be very significant changes made,
00:07:41.142 --> 00:07:43.545
Significant changes made, just beginning
00:07:43.612 --> 00:07:44.212
Just beginning with the border for example,
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.648
With the border for example, there's gonna be a lot
00:07:46.715 --> 00:07:47.482
There's gonna be a lot of push back and there's gonna
00:07:47.549 --> 00:07:48.817
Of push back and there's gonna be this growing animosity
00:07:48.884 --> 00:07:51.186
Be this growing animosity and tension.
00:07:51.253 --> 00:07:52.521
And tension. and the question is what's
00:07:52.587 --> 00:07:55.290
And the question is what's our role in this,
00:07:55.357 --> 00:07:56.858
Our role in this, other than praying?
00:07:56.925 --> 00:07:58.627
Other than praying? i mean, we can easily be barking
00:07:58.693 --> 00:08:01.730
I mean, we can easily be barking at each other from each side.
00:08:01.796 --> 00:08:05.200
At each other from each side. >> sure.
00:08:05.267 --> 00:08:05.901
>> sure. as we have been.
00:08:05.967 --> 00:08:06.668
As we have been. >> yeah, as we have been.
00:08:06.735 --> 00:08:07.869
>> yeah, as we have been. >> and i think it's important
00:08:07.936 --> 00:08:09.037
>> and i think it's important to distinguish here real issues
00:08:09.104 --> 00:08:12.607
To distinguish here real issues that are very clearly spelled
00:08:12.674 --> 00:08:14.142
That are very clearly spelled out in the bible.
00:08:14.209 --> 00:08:15.911
Out in the bible. and at times,
00:08:15.977 --> 00:08:17.045
And at times, the us government,
00:08:17.112 --> 00:08:17.479
The us government, or any government,
00:08:17.546 --> 00:08:17.979
Or any government, if you're watching oversees,
00:08:18.046 --> 00:08:19.080
If you're watching oversees, i know we have a
00:08:19.147 --> 00:08:20.215
I know we have a large and growing
00:08:20.282 --> 00:08:20.916
Large and growing international viewership.
00:08:20.982 --> 00:08:23.051
International viewership. governments have to engage
00:08:23.118 --> 00:08:24.452
Governments have to engage with issues where
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:25.520
With issues where there's clearly a,
00:08:25.587 --> 00:08:28.356
There's clearly a, right out of the scriptures,
00:08:28.423 --> 00:08:29.824
Right out of the scriptures, righteous choice,
00:08:29.891 --> 00:08:31.326
Righteous choice, and there's an
00:08:31.393 --> 00:08:31.826
And there's an unrighteous choice.
00:08:31.893 --> 00:08:33.128
Unrighteous choice. and on those issues,
00:08:33.194 --> 00:08:33.995
And on those issues, may we be unified as a body
00:08:34.062 --> 00:08:35.530
May we be unified as a body of believers
00:08:35.597 --> 00:08:36.865
Of believers to make the righteous choice.
00:08:36.932 --> 00:08:38.633
To make the righteous choice. but on so many other issues,
00:08:38.700 --> 00:08:40.001
But on so many other issues, jonathan, the economy, taxes,
00:08:40.068 --> 00:08:41.736
Jonathan, the economy, taxes, foreign policy,
00:08:41.803 --> 00:08:43.638
Foreign policy, there isn't necessarily a clear,
00:08:43.705 --> 00:08:45.473
There isn't necessarily a clear, biblical righteous
00:08:45.540 --> 00:08:46.441
Biblical righteous and unrighteous choice.
00:08:46.508 --> 00:08:47.442
And unrighteous choice. and may our preference on those
00:08:47.509 --> 00:08:49.477
And may our preference on those things as the new administration
00:08:49.544 --> 00:08:50.879
Things as the new administration comes in,
00:08:50.946 --> 00:08:51.546
Comes in, as changes begin to happen,
00:08:51.613 --> 00:08:52.414
As changes begin to happen, may they not divide the body,
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:53.982
May they not divide the body, because what a shame
00:08:54.049 --> 00:08:54.749
Because what a shame that would be,
00:08:54.816 --> 00:08:55.317
That would be, whether or not we get our way,
00:08:55.383 --> 00:08:56.484
Whether or not we get our way, that they would divide
00:08:56.551 --> 00:08:57.519
That they would divide the body and cause
00:08:57.586 --> 00:08:58.320
The body and cause us to hate one another.
00:08:58.386 --> 00:08:59.120
Us to hate one another. >> one example that just
00:08:59.187 --> 00:09:00.088
>> one example that just comes to mind,
00:09:00.155 --> 00:09:01.389
Comes to mind, and i'll go right
00:09:01.456 --> 00:09:02.290
And i'll go right into the --
00:09:02.357 --> 00:09:03.091
Into the -- into the --
00:09:03.158 --> 00:09:03.725
Into the -- >> sure.
00:09:03.792 --> 00:09:04.192
>> sure. >> i'll go right into
00:09:04.259 --> 00:09:04.793
>> i'll go right into the battlefield here.
00:09:04.859 --> 00:09:07.329
The battlefield here. i'm antiabortion.
00:09:07.395 --> 00:09:08.897
I'm antiabortion. i'll just say it as clear
00:09:08.964 --> 00:09:10.966
I'll just say it as clear as i can say it.
00:09:11.032 --> 00:09:12.367
As i can say it. i'm antiabortion.
00:09:12.434 --> 00:09:14.869
I'm antiabortion. i would talk anybody --
00:09:14.936 --> 00:09:16.471
I would talk anybody -- i would beg my daughters
00:09:16.538 --> 00:09:19.207
I would beg my daughters if they were considering that.
00:09:19.274 --> 00:09:20.442
If they were considering that. >> yeah.
00:09:20.508 --> 00:09:21.242
>> yeah. >> i don't think they ever will,
00:09:21.309 --> 00:09:22.477
>> i don't think they ever will, thank god.
00:09:22.544 --> 00:09:22.978
Thank god. but it's a human life.
00:09:23.044 --> 00:09:25.380
But it's a human life. but, i also understand that
00:09:25.447 --> 00:09:27.616
But, i also understand that we're in a democracy,
00:09:27.682 --> 00:09:29.684
We're in a democracy, and that we had this
00:09:29.751 --> 00:09:32.487
And that we had this come up in arizona,
00:09:32.554 --> 00:09:34.289
Come up in arizona, and the vote
00:09:34.356 --> 00:09:35.924
And the vote was to allow abortion.
00:09:35.991 --> 00:09:38.727
Was to allow abortion. >> overwhelming, in fact,
00:09:38.793 --> 00:09:40.128
>> overwhelming, in fact, the vote was to allow it.
00:09:40.195 --> 00:09:40.895
The vote was to allow it. >> and --
00:09:40.962 --> 00:09:42.364
>> and -- >> up to term to be specific.
00:09:42.430 --> 00:09:43.732
>> up to term to be specific. >> up to term.
00:09:43.798 --> 00:09:44.332
>> up to term. and we have to accept that fact.
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:45.934
And we have to accept that fact. and i do.
00:09:46.001 --> 00:09:47.535
And i do. so, in one sense,
00:09:47.602 --> 00:09:48.536
So, in one sense, i can support pro choice
00:09:48.603 --> 00:09:51.773
I can support pro choice because i believe
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:52.540
Because i believe in free will.
00:09:52.607 --> 00:09:53.341
In free will. but as a believer,
00:09:53.408 --> 00:09:55.744
But as a believer, i would want to be led
00:09:55.810 --> 00:09:59.347
I would want to be led to women that are confused
00:09:59.414 --> 00:10:02.083
To women that are confused and fearful and are
00:10:02.150 --> 00:10:03.952
And fearful and are contemplating abortion
00:10:04.019 --> 00:10:05.754
Contemplating abortion and talk about alternatives
00:10:05.820 --> 00:10:07.022
And talk about alternatives with them.
00:10:07.088 --> 00:10:08.223
With them. i would just love
00:10:08.289 --> 00:10:08.857
I would just love that opportunity.
00:10:08.923 --> 00:10:09.991
That opportunity. that's one thing where we
00:10:10.058 --> 00:10:11.259
That's one thing where we can be a voice of peace
00:10:11.326 --> 00:10:13.228
Can be a voice of peace and reconciliation and hope.
00:10:13.294 --> 00:10:15.463
And reconciliation and hope. that's just on example.
00:10:15.530 --> 00:10:16.364
That's just on example. >> mother teresa said years ago,
00:10:16.431 --> 00:10:17.999
>> mother teresa said years ago, you know,
00:10:18.066 --> 00:10:18.366
You know, when she was alive,
00:10:18.433 --> 00:10:19.167
When she was alive, she said on this
00:10:19.234 --> 00:10:20.035
She said on this issue of abortion,
00:10:20.101 --> 00:10:21.403
Issue of abortion, she said,
00:10:21.469 --> 00:10:21.870
She said, "if you don't want your babies,
00:10:21.936 --> 00:10:22.704
"if you don't want your babies, give them to me."
00:10:22.771 --> 00:10:24.472
Give them to me." and her point was
00:10:24.539 --> 00:10:25.273
And her point was if you're gonna be serious
00:10:25.340 --> 00:10:26.174
If you're gonna be serious about a prolife stance,
00:10:26.241 --> 00:10:28.276
About a prolife stance, be serious about adoption.
00:10:28.343 --> 00:10:29.644
Be serious about adoption. and we're on, kind of,
00:10:29.711 --> 00:10:30.412
And we're on, kind of, a tangent here,
00:10:30.478 --> 00:10:31.112
A tangent here, but the point is whether
00:10:31.179 --> 00:10:32.547
But the point is whether or not we get our way in
00:10:32.614 --> 00:10:34.149
Or not we get our way in the way the laws are formed,
00:10:34.215 --> 00:10:36.017
The way the laws are formed, we have biblical requirements
00:10:36.084 --> 00:10:37.485
We have biblical requirements before god --
00:10:37.552 --> 00:10:38.086
Before god -- >> the government in arizona
00:10:38.153 --> 00:10:39.154
>> the government in arizona cannot enforce that.
00:10:39.220 --> 00:10:39.988
Cannot enforce that. but you know --
00:10:40.055 --> 00:10:41.022
But you know -- and i can support that,
00:10:41.089 --> 00:10:41.990
And i can support that, that's the decision
00:10:42.057 --> 00:10:42.657
That's the decision of the people.
00:10:42.724 --> 00:10:44.192
Of the people. but i'd love the opportunity
00:10:44.259 --> 00:10:45.360
But i'd love the opportunity to help people --
00:10:45.427 --> 00:10:46.294
To help people -- to help people through that.
00:10:46.361 --> 00:10:47.662
To help people through that. to help couples through that,
00:10:47.729 --> 00:10:49.764
To help couples through that, young girls through this.
00:10:49.831 --> 00:10:51.566
Young girls through this. >> sure.
00:10:51.633 --> 00:10:52.167
>> sure. >> and i think that's something
00:10:52.233 --> 00:10:53.068
>> and i think that's something we should be aspiring
00:10:53.134 --> 00:10:54.002
We should be aspiring to and praying about.
00:10:54.069 --> 00:10:54.803
To and praying about. >> we need to take
00:10:54.869 --> 00:10:55.470
>> we need to take a quick break,
00:10:55.537 --> 00:10:56.104

00:14:20.341 --> 00:14:21.976
Very clear, hamas and hezbollah are
00:14:22.043 --> 00:14:23.978
Hamas and hezbollah are terrorist organizations
00:14:24.045 --> 00:14:25.747
Terrorist organizations committed to the destruction
00:14:25.813 --> 00:14:27.048
Committed to the destruction of israel.
00:14:27.115 --> 00:14:29.150
Of israel. they are
00:14:29.217 --> 00:14:29.951
They are advocating genocide, okay?
00:14:30.018 --> 00:14:32.120
Advocating genocide, okay? genocide.
00:14:32.186 --> 00:14:33.221
Genocide. they want the destruction
00:14:33.288 --> 00:14:34.289
They want the destruction of the jewish people.
00:14:34.355 --> 00:14:35.790
Of the jewish people. actually, not just in isreal
00:14:35.857 --> 00:14:37.225
Actually, not just in isreal but right now
00:14:37.292 --> 00:14:38.393
But right now in israel prop -- yeah.

In israel prop -- yeah. they need to be wiped out
00:14:40.295 --> 00:14:41.462
They need to be wiped out and we need to pray that they're
00:14:41.529 --> 00:14:44.232
And we need to pray that they're eradicated just for
00:14:44.299 --> 00:14:46.034
Eradicated just for the wellbeing of the world,
00:14:46.100 --> 00:14:48.002
The wellbeing of the world, not just for israel.
00:14:48.069 --> 00:14:49.037
Not just for israel. >> right.
00:14:49.103 --> 00:14:49.604

>> and we need to pray that the palestinians thrive --
00:14:52.373 --> 00:14:54.642
The palestinians thrive -- survive, thrive,
00:14:54.709 --> 00:14:56.277
Survive, thrive, and develop a new mentality,
00:14:56.344 --> 00:14:59.647
And develop a new mentality, a new world view,
00:14:59.714 --> 00:15:01.416
A new world view, a new paradigm
00:15:01.482 --> 00:15:02.850
A new paradigm for how to live in peace.
00:15:02.917 --> 00:15:04.886
For how to live in peace. and develop a culture

And develop a culture of life, not death.
00:15:06.988 --> 00:15:08.423
Of life, not death. we need to pray for that because
00:15:08.489 --> 00:15:09.657
We need to pray for that because we care about them.
00:15:09.724 --> 00:15:10.925
We care about them. we support many arab ministries
00:15:10.992 --> 00:15:12.694
We support many arab ministries at jewish voice,
00:15:12.760 --> 00:15:13.895
At jewish voice, and we care about them,
00:15:13.962 --> 00:15:14.796
And we care about them, and we need
00:15:14.862 --> 00:15:15.296
And we need to be praying for them.
00:15:15.363 --> 00:15:16.397
To be praying for them. >> and we say this so often,
00:15:16.464 --> 00:15:17.465
>> and we say this so often, but we'll just say again.
00:15:17.532 --> 00:15:18.700
But we'll just say again. israel, certainly
00:15:18.766 --> 00:15:19.767
Israel, certainly the united states,
00:15:19.834 --> 00:15:20.735
The united states, but also the nation
00:15:20.802 --> 00:15:22.337
But also the nation and government of israel
00:15:22.403 --> 00:15:23.271
And government of israel are not anti-arab,
00:15:23.338 --> 00:15:25.106
Are not anti-arab, they're not anti-palestinian.
00:15:25.173 --> 00:15:26.874
They're not anti-palestinian. they're not even anti-muslim.
00:15:26.941 --> 00:15:28.376
They're not even anti-muslim. there's over a million
00:15:28.443 --> 00:15:29.510
There's over a million muslim israelis,
00:15:29.577 --> 00:15:30.712
Muslim israelis, arabs with israeli citizenship.
00:15:30.778 --> 00:15:32.714
Arabs with israeli citizenship. israel is anti,
00:15:32.780 --> 00:15:33.948
Israel is anti, and may the next us
00:15:34.015 --> 00:15:35.416
And may the next us administration be fiercely
00:15:35.483 --> 00:15:37.485
Administration be fiercely anti radicalized,
00:15:37.552 --> 00:15:39.320
Anti radicalized, jihadist, terrorist regime.
00:15:39.387 --> 00:15:41.489
Jihadist, terrorist regime. that's the real threat
00:15:41.556 --> 00:15:42.390
That's the real threat to israel's existence.
00:15:42.457 --> 00:15:43.558
To israel's existence. >> that's right.
00:15:43.624 --> 00:15:45.259
>> that's right. >> we need to pray that
00:15:45.326 --> 00:15:46.027
>> we need to pray that the abraham accords continue
00:15:46.094 --> 00:15:47.695
The abraham accords continue because this was very,
00:15:47.762 --> 00:15:48.796
Because this was very, very helpful for israel
00:15:48.863 --> 00:15:50.665
Very helpful for israel through this whole process.
00:15:50.732 --> 00:15:51.399
Through this whole process. >> right.
00:15:51.466 --> 00:15:51.799
>> right. you know, i'm thinking,
00:15:51.866 --> 00:15:52.400
You know, i'm thinking, had october 7, 2023
00:15:52.467 --> 00:15:54.736
Had october 7, 2023 happened ten years ago,
00:15:54.802 --> 00:15:57.372
Happened ten years ago, even five years ago, jonathan,
00:15:57.438 --> 00:15:58.639
Even five years ago, jonathan, before the abraham accords,
00:15:58.706 --> 00:16:00.308
Before the abraham accords, it would have been a very
00:16:00.375 --> 00:16:01.075
It would have been a very different situation
00:16:01.142 --> 00:16:01.943
Different situation for israel.
00:16:02.010 --> 00:16:02.744
For israel. it would have been israel
00:16:02.810 --> 00:16:03.711
It would have been israel against every one
00:16:03.778 --> 00:16:05.013
Against every one of its neighbors.
00:16:05.079 --> 00:16:06.147
Of its neighbors. >> the landscape has changed,
00:16:06.214 --> 00:16:07.448
>> the landscape has changed, but it needs to continue.
00:16:07.515 --> 00:16:08.783
But it needs to continue. >> yeah.
00:16:08.850 --> 00:16:09.417
>> yeah. >> this process needs
00:16:09.484 --> 00:16:10.518
>> this process needs to continue.
00:16:10.585 --> 00:16:11.352
To continue. >> right.
00:16:11.419 --> 00:16:11.853
>> right. >> and there is strong potential
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:14.822
>> and there is strong potential for true peace in
00:16:14.889 --> 00:16:15.690
For true peace in the middle east.
00:16:15.757 --> 00:16:16.391
The middle east. >> yeah.
00:16:16.457 --> 00:16:16.791
>> yeah. during the first
00:16:16.858 --> 00:16:17.191
During the first trump administration,
00:16:17.258 --> 00:16:18.593
Trump administration, the us embassy, surprisingly,
00:16:18.659 --> 00:16:21.562
The us embassy, surprisingly, was moved to jerusalem.
00:16:21.629 --> 00:16:23.531
Was moved to jerusalem. out of tel aviv.
00:16:23.598 --> 00:16:24.399
Out of tel aviv. >> and it was going to be an
00:16:24.465 --> 00:16:26.134
>> and it was going to be an upheaval worldwide,
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:27.635
Upheaval worldwide, supposedly, never happened.
00:16:27.702 --> 00:16:30.038
Supposedly, never happened. and there it is,
00:16:30.104 --> 00:16:31.572
And there it is, our us embassy is there.
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:32.907
Our us embassy is there. great move and for us
00:16:32.974 --> 00:16:34.409
Great move and for us as a country.
00:16:34.475 --> 00:16:35.043
As a country. >> the prayer point here is
00:16:35.109 --> 00:16:36.577
>> the prayer point here is under the first
00:16:36.644 --> 00:16:37.145
Under the first trump administration,
00:16:37.211 --> 00:16:38.846
Trump administration, the lord saw fit to use
00:16:38.913 --> 00:16:40.181
The lord saw fit to use that administration
00:16:40.248 --> 00:16:41.516
That administration for some advances in
00:16:41.582 --> 00:16:42.884
For some advances in the unted states aligning
00:16:42.950 --> 00:16:44.886
The unted states aligning with god's kingdom purposes.
00:16:44.952 --> 00:16:46.888
With god's kingdom purposes. jesus, yeshua is the prince
00:16:46.954 --> 00:16:48.056
Jesus, yeshua is the prince of peace,
00:16:48.122 --> 00:16:48.456
Of peace, and we were able,
00:16:48.523 --> 00:16:49.157
And we were able, to some degree,
00:16:49.223 --> 00:16:50.024
To some degree, to help with some peace
00:16:50.091 --> 00:16:51.459
To help with some peace in the middle east,
00:16:51.526 --> 00:16:52.060
In the middle east, it's not gonna happen entirely
00:16:52.126 --> 00:16:53.661
It's not gonna happen entirely till jesus returns
00:16:53.728 --> 00:16:54.862
Till jesus returns as the ruling
00:16:54.929 --> 00:16:55.530
As the ruling and conquering king.
00:16:55.596 --> 00:16:56.330
And conquering king. but recognition of jerusalem
00:16:56.397 --> 00:16:57.965
But recognition of jerusalem as the eternal capital
00:16:58.032 --> 00:16:59.333
As the eternal capital of the jewish people
00:16:59.400 --> 00:17:00.501
Of the jewish people and the jewish state.
00:17:00.568 --> 00:17:01.402
And the jewish state. so, the prayer point here is
00:17:01.469 --> 00:17:02.603
So, the prayer point here is under the second administration,
00:17:02.670 --> 00:17:04.572
Under the second administration, second round that the lord
00:17:04.639 --> 00:17:07.075
Second round that the lord would direct --
00:17:07.141 --> 00:17:08.609
Would direct -- it says he directs the hearts
00:17:08.676 --> 00:17:09.677
It says he directs the hearts of kings like channels
00:17:09.744 --> 00:17:11.112
Of kings like channels of water in his hand,
00:17:11.179 --> 00:17:11.879
Of water in his hand, wherever he pleases.
00:17:11.946 --> 00:17:12.914
Wherever he pleases. so, may the lord direct
00:17:12.980 --> 00:17:14.082
So, may the lord direct the heart of donald trump
00:17:14.148 --> 00:17:15.149
The heart of donald trump and his administration
00:17:15.216 --> 00:17:16.284
And his administration into his kingdom purposes
00:17:16.350 --> 00:17:17.452
Into his kingdom purposes for israel.
00:17:17.518 --> 00:17:18.119
For israel. >> amen.

Israel have gotta make a concerted effort
00:17:25.059 --> 00:17:26.227
Make a concerted effort to dismantle iran's ability
00:17:26.294 --> 00:17:30.598
To dismantle iran's ability to create nuclear weapons.
00:17:30.665 --> 00:17:32.266
To create nuclear weapons. and if that means
00:17:32.333 --> 00:17:33.201
And if that means taking out the regime somehow,
00:17:33.267 --> 00:17:35.803
Taking out the regime somehow, we've gotta do it.
00:17:35.870 --> 00:17:36.838
We've gotta do it. we've gotta protect the people
00:17:36.904 --> 00:17:37.872
We've gotta protect the people of iran who actually are very
00:17:37.939 --> 00:17:40.274
Of iran who actually are very supportive of peace and many
00:17:40.341 --> 00:17:42.143

About the arabs and the palestinians,
00:17:46.447 --> 00:17:47.281

Our enemy is not the persian people.
00:17:51.219 --> 00:17:52.153
The persian people. the lord loves the tens,

Of persian people on earth. but the current

But the current administration of iran,
00:17:58.426 --> 00:18:00.361
Administration of iran, this revolutionary guard
00:18:00.428 --> 00:18:01.229
This revolutionary guard that continues has adopted
00:18:01.295 --> 00:18:03.197
That continues has adopted a radicalized form of islam
00:18:03.264 --> 00:18:04.866
A radicalized form of islam that -- whose main goal is
00:18:04.932 --> 00:18:07.001

I believe them 100% percent, they are not lying,

As soon as we have the weapon systems ready,
00:18:19.313 --> 00:18:20.715
The weapon systems ready, we're firing our rockets
00:18:20.781 --> 00:18:22.416
We're firing our rockets against israel.
00:18:22.483 --> 00:18:23.251

Important prayer point, more important now, perhaps,
00:18:35.763 --> 00:18:37.064
More important now, perhaps, than it's been since the end
00:18:37.131 --> 00:18:38.065
Than it's been since the end of world war ii is the sharp
00:18:38.132 --> 00:18:41.169
Of world war ii is the sharp increase in antisemitism.
00:18:41.235 --> 00:18:43.371
Increase in antisemitism. a few weeks ago now, you know,
00:18:43.437 --> 00:18:44.906
A few weeks ago now, you know, the incident outside the soccer

The incident outside the soccer stadium in amsterdam, right?
00:18:46.307 --> 00:18:48.809
Stadium in amsterdam, right? it was a pogrom.
00:18:48.876 --> 00:18:49.744
It was a pogrom. it was a premediated,

To now fire into russian. and my concern is that there's

A madman at the helm of russia that is actually
00:20:46.360 --> 00:20:46.661
