Some would even say that we’re witnessing biblical prophecy unfold in real time. Stakelbeck Tonight will make sense of these stunning developments through a bold and biblical lens.

Stakelbeck Tonight | Erick Stakelbeck: Christianity Under Fire in Canada | Stakelbeck Tonight | August 4, 2025
- Welcome to stakelbeck
- 00:00:17.373 --> 00:00:18.608
- Tonight i'm erick stakelbeck, and there is forced starvation
- 00:00:18.608 --> 00:00:22.445
- Happening in gaza right now.
- 00:00:22.445 --> 00:00:24.948
- But the victims
- 00:00:24.948 --> 00:00:26.216
- May not be who you'd expect if you spent the past few weeks
- 00:00:26.216 --> 00:00:30.053
- Listening to the global anti-israel propaganda machine.
- 00:00:30.053 --> 00:00:34.591
- Over the weekend, hamas
- 00:00:34.591 --> 00:00:36.326
- Released the horrific video of israeli hostage eyvatar david
- 00:00:36.326 --> 00:00:40.797
- Who's been held in captivity in gaza for close to 700 days.
- 00:00:40.797 --> 00:00:46.169
- Folks, the images you're about to see are disturbing.
- 00:00:46.169 --> 00:00:49.205
- Not only is avatar completely emaciated, hamas
- 00:00:49.205 --> 00:00:53.276
- Also handed him a shovel
- 00:00:53.276 --> 00:00:55.111
- And made him believe
- 00:00:55.111 --> 00:00:56.179
- He was digging his own grave, taking delight
- 00:00:56.179 --> 00:00:59.616
- In tormenting him.
- 00:00:59.616 --> 00:01:01.117
- These are scenes
- 00:01:01.117 --> 00:01:02.152
- Straight out of a nazi death camp like auschwitz.
- 00:01:02.152 --> 00:01:05.188
- Yet they're taking place in 2025
- 00:01:05.188 --> 00:01:08.258
- Because hamas is a modern day nazi death cult.
- 00:01:08.258 --> 00:01:12.695
- So is palestinian islamic jihad, another iran backed
- 00:01:12.695 --> 00:01:17.100
- Terror group that's holding hostages in gaza right now.
- 00:01:17.100 --> 00:01:20.837
- They also released a video a few days ago of a starving
- 00:01:20.837 --> 00:01:24.641
- Israeli hostage that they're holding, named raam.
- 00:01:24.641 --> 00:01:28.545
- Warning.
- 00:01:28.811 --> 00:01:29.846
- This footage is extremely upsetting, but
- 00:01:29.846 --> 00:01:32.415
- We've decided to show it to you for two reasons.
- 00:01:32.415 --> 00:01:35.552
- Number one, so you understand what's really happening in gaza
- 00:01:35.552 --> 00:01:39.722
- And what israel is dealing with.
- 00:01:39.722 --> 00:01:41.658
- And number two,
- 00:01:41.658 --> 00:01:42.926
- So that you can double your efforts to pray for the hostages
- 00:01:42.926 --> 00:01:46.963
- And their freedom.
- 00:01:46.963 --> 00:01:48.631
- Take a look.
- 00:01:48.631 --> 00:01:51.901
- Come on.
- 00:01:52.168 --> 00:01:52.502
- Your idea.
- 00:01:52.502 --> 00:01:54.637
- You wanna stay here, give it to people.
- 00:01:54.637 --> 00:01:57.941
- You're going to.
- 00:01:57.941 --> 00:02:01.311
- You know, we'll get you somewhere
- 00:02:01.311 --> 00:02:05.215
- To go.
- 00:02:05.415 --> 00:02:06.683
- Get a nice sleep if you look like
- 00:02:06.683 --> 00:02:11.421
- The whole middle.
- 00:02:11.854 --> 00:02:14.524
- That would let you do a little bit.
- 00:02:14.524 --> 00:02:16.659
- India.
- 00:02:16.659 --> 00:02:18.795
- I don't want to ask you.
- 00:02:18.795 --> 00:02:22.031
- Head over to ikea.
- 00:02:22.465 --> 00:02:26.069
- So that you can pull.
- 00:02:26.569 --> 00:02:30.106
- There really are no words here.
- 00:02:30.740 --> 00:02:33.443
- What you just watched is pure demonic
- 00:02:33.443 --> 00:02:36.145
- Evil, courtesy of these gaza terror groups.
- 00:02:36.145 --> 00:02:39.515
- Yet the world is focused on supposed war crimes
- 00:02:39.515 --> 00:02:42.919
- Carried out by israel for starvation, even genocide.
- 00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:47.590
- In this alternate version of reality, the perpetrators
- 00:02:47.590 --> 00:02:51.094
- Of the october 7th massacre are actually the victims,
- 00:02:51.094 --> 00:02:54.631
- And the jews have become the nazis.
- 00:02:54.631 --> 00:02:57.634
- Now our own tbn israel correspondent, yahya
- 00:02:57.634 --> 00:03:00.403
- Pinto, has already refuted the starvation claims.
- 00:03:00.403 --> 00:03:04.240
- He's been to gaza many times and shown the aid trucks
- 00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.877
- Lined up to deliver tons of food and basic necessities.
- 00:03:07.877 --> 00:03:12.148
- There's also our friend johnny moore,
- 00:03:12.148 --> 00:03:13.750
- Who's a regular on this show
- 00:03:13.750 --> 00:03:15.318
- And who heads up the gaza humanitarian foundation,
- 00:03:15.318 --> 00:03:18.554
- Which is distributing massive amounts of aid
- 00:03:18.554 --> 00:03:21.257
- Despite constant threats
- 00:03:21.257 --> 00:03:22.925
- From hamas and condemnation from the u.n., the u.s.
- 00:03:22.925 --> 00:03:26.896
- Ambassador to israel, mike huckabee, and middle east envoy
- 00:03:26.896 --> 00:03:29.999
- Steve wyckoff, personally visited gaza last friday
- 00:03:29.999 --> 00:03:33.436
- To see for themselves if there was mass starvation.
- 00:03:33.436 --> 00:03:37.340
- Here's what ambassador huckabee tweeted about his visit.
- 00:03:37.340 --> 00:03:40.109
- Quote the gaza humanitarian foundation delivers
- 00:03:40.109 --> 00:03:43.313
- More than 1 million meals a day, an incredible feat.
- 00:03:43.313 --> 00:03:47.350
- The ambassador shared
- 00:03:47.350 --> 00:03:48.384
- More this weekend with mark levin on fox news.
- 00:03:48.384 --> 00:03:53.423
- If you saw
- 00:03:53.723 --> 00:03:55.892
- That israel.
- 00:03:55.892 --> 00:03:56.559
- Was committing acts of genocide.
- 00:03:56.559 --> 00:03:59.829
- You wouldn't sit there and defend it and accept it.
- 00:03:59.829 --> 00:04:04.200
- Given your background.
- 00:04:04.667 --> 00:04:05.935
- Given your moral character, would you?
- 00:04:05.935 --> 00:04:08.338
- Absolutely not, mark.
- 00:04:08.338 --> 00:04:09.572
- And the fact is, i'm an eye witness
- 00:04:09.572 --> 00:04:11.107
- To what is actually happening,
- 00:04:11.107 --> 00:04:12.542
- Not what i got from the al jazeera.
- 00:04:12.542 --> 00:04:14.911
- News source, which is pro. hamas.
- 00:04:14.911 --> 00:04:17.747
- Not from the gaza health ministry, which is hamas.
- 00:04:17.747 --> 00:04:22.251
- No, i get my information firsthand.
- 00:04:22.251 --> 00:04:24.387
- I live here.
- 00:04:24.387 --> 00:04:25.088
- I'm with it every day.
- 00:04:25.088 --> 00:04:27.423
- I've. tell you this.
- 00:04:27.423 --> 00:04:29.025
- If israel is committing.
- 00:04:29.025 --> 00:04:30.393
- Genocide, mark, they're really bad at it.
- 00:04:30.393 --> 00:04:32.962
- They're terrible at doing genocide,
- 00:04:32.962 --> 00:04:34.831
- Just like they're terrible at doing apartheid.
- 00:04:34.831 --> 00:04:37.333
- Such as the anti-israel lies and anti-semitic madness spread.
- 00:04:37.333 --> 00:04:43.439
- I believe god has placed our friend
- 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:45.041
- Mike huckabee in this crucial position
- 00:04:45.041 --> 00:04:47.810
- As ambassador to israel for such a time as this.
- 00:04:47.810 --> 00:04:52.014
- As he said,
- 00:04:52.014 --> 00:04:53.049
- There is no substitute for being on the ground.
- 00:04:53.049 --> 00:04:56.552
- Here's an excellent report first hand
- 00:04:56.552 --> 00:04:58.421
- From the israeli government's humanitarian arm, watch.
- 00:04:58.421 --> 00:05:03.426
- Recent footage from gaza
- 00:05:03.960 --> 00:05:05.661
- Shows bustling markets with fresh produce,
- 00:05:05.661 --> 00:05:09.065
- Bakeries, baking pita bread
- 00:05:09.665 --> 00:05:11.401
- And community kitchens.
- 00:05:11.401 --> 00:05:14.971
- Pastry shops and food stalls are open.
- 00:05:14.971 --> 00:05:18.141
- Aid is flowing in by land
- 00:05:18.708 --> 00:05:20.576
- And by air every single day.
- 00:05:20.576 --> 00:05:24.213
- Hamas is pushing a fake famine narrative,
- 00:05:24.213 --> 00:05:26.816
- Claiming, quote unquote, deliberate starvation.
- 00:05:26.816 --> 00:05:29.752
- The jew who is actually elmo, he doesn't mean as well.
- 00:05:29.752 --> 00:05:33.022
- Written, insulting, yet not the holy.
- 00:05:33.022 --> 00:05:34.791
- Ha ha.
- 00:05:34.791 --> 00:05:36.192
- Kamila. bitter truth.
- 00:05:36.192 --> 00:05:38.094
- Hamas is starving its own people.
- 00:05:38.094 --> 00:05:39.996
- They steal the food, hoard
- 00:05:39.996 --> 00:05:41.497
- The aid and sell it at sky-high prices.
- 00:05:41.497 --> 00:05:44.267
- The food is there. the aid is there.
- 00:05:44.267 --> 00:05:46.502
- Hamas just keeps it from those who need it most.
- 00:05:46.502 --> 00:05:50.039
- So hamas is stealing the aid and either selling it
- 00:05:51.073 --> 00:05:54.977
- To needy gazans
- 00:05:54.977 --> 00:05:56.145
- At exorbitant prices, or just keeping it for themselves
- 00:05:56.145 --> 00:06:00.416
- All while they push the fake starvation narrative.
- 00:06:00.416 --> 00:06:03.519
- And the world just runs with it.
- 00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:05.588
- Here's more footage of starving gazans released this weekend.
- 00:06:05.588 --> 00:06:10.626
- One was one was better.
- 00:06:11.127 --> 00:06:12.995
- I better tell you i'm left when i fertilize.
- 00:06:12.995 --> 00:06:17.200
- Yeah.
- 00:06:17.200 --> 00:06:17.967
- Hey. oh hum.
- 00:06:17.967 --> 00:06:20.236
- Hum hum. yeah.
- 00:06:20.236 --> 00:06:21.737
- Oh, yeah.
- 00:06:21.737 --> 00:06:23.840
- Oh, well, mind your mind.
- 00:06:23.840 --> 00:06:25.775
- You have a budget.
- 00:06:25.775 --> 00:06:26.976
- When was your merger with the better ever merger?
- 00:06:26.976 --> 00:06:32.315
- You, hum and stuff.
- 00:06:32.315 --> 00:06:34.784
- I just.
- 00:06:34.784 --> 00:06:38.087
- Those were hamas
- 00:06:38.087 --> 00:06:39.589
- Members feasting in a gaza tunnel.
- 00:06:39.589 --> 00:06:42.658
- Gee, i wonder where they got all that food.
- 00:06:42.658 --> 00:06:45.862
- Folks were bringing
- 00:06:45.862 --> 00:06:47.063
- You much needed truth here and setting the record straight.
- 00:06:47.063 --> 00:06:50.199
- We live
- 00:06:50.433 --> 00:06:51.634
- In times that the prophet isaiah described very accurately,
- 00:06:51.634 --> 00:06:54.270
- Where good is called evil and evil is called good.
- 00:06:54.270 --> 00:06:58.207
- Sadly, western
- 00:06:58.541 --> 00:07:00.076
- Leaders are following right along with isaiah's narrative.
- 00:07:00.076 --> 00:07:03.846
- Over the past week, france, the u.k.
- 00:07:03.846 --> 00:07:06.382
- And canada have all declared
- 00:07:06.382 --> 00:07:08.484
- That they are set to recognize a palestinian state
- 00:07:08.484 --> 00:07:11.387
- In september, rewarding terror as the hostages continue
- 00:07:11.387 --> 00:07:15.358
- To suffer.
- 00:07:15.358 --> 00:07:16.292
- Then this weekend,
- 00:07:16.292 --> 00:07:17.393
- We saw tens of
- 00:07:17.393 --> 00:07:18.594
- Thousands of people in sydney, australia march against israel
- 00:07:18.594 --> 00:07:22.565
- As the west abandons the world's one and only jewish state.
- 00:07:22.565 --> 00:07:26.402
- It's no wonder hamas is doubling down and refusing a ceasefire.
- 00:07:26.402 --> 00:07:31.807
- It seems the longer hamas drags out the fight,
- 00:07:31.807 --> 00:07:34.877
- The more the world turns against israel.
- 00:07:34.877 --> 00:07:38.281
- If you know bible prophecy, this is really no surprise.
- 00:07:38.281 --> 00:07:42.385
- While america is turning back to faith under president trump,
- 00:07:42.385 --> 00:07:46.589
- Hostility against jews and bible believing christians
- 00:07:46.589 --> 00:07:50.092
- Is growing in other parts of the western world,
- 00:07:50.092 --> 00:07:53.162
- Including the great white north.
- 00:07:53.162 --> 00:07:55.598
- We've got a shocking report
- 00:07:55.598 --> 00:07:57.033
- From christian worship leader sean feucht
- 00:07:57.033 --> 00:07:59.302
- On what he faced while visiting canada last week.
- 00:07:59.302 --> 00:08:03.172
- That's after the break. stick around.
- 00:08:03.172 --> 00:08:08.002
- That's after the break. stick around.
- 00:08:08.002 --> 00:08:10.511
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:08:11.278 --> 00:08:13.080
- Public worship is under siege in canada.
- 00:08:13.080 --> 00:08:16.450
- Over 100 churches burned.
- 00:08:16.450 --> 00:08:18.552
- Pastors fined and jailed.
- 00:08:18.552 --> 00:08:20.688
- Peaceful christian events canceled with no explanation.
- 00:08:20.688 --> 00:08:23.991
- And now, american worship leader sean ford just saw six events
- 00:08:23.991 --> 00:08:28.429
- Abruptly canceled.
- 00:08:28.429 --> 00:08:29.863
- Not because of safety concerns, not because of violence, but
- 00:08:29.863 --> 00:08:33.701
- Because he dared to worship jesus in public in canada.
- 00:08:33.701 --> 00:08:38.072
- In a country where pro hamas artists are welcomed on
- 00:08:38.072 --> 00:08:41.475
- Stage and anti-christian mobs are rarely challenged.
- 00:08:41.475 --> 00:08:45.779
- Sean has become a target and a symbol.
- 00:08:45.779 --> 00:08:48.949
- But he says this isn't just about him.
- 00:08:48.949 --> 00:08:51.685
- It's about every believer who wants to worship freely.
- 00:08:51.685 --> 00:08:55.322
- Sean joins us now. sean.
- 00:08:55.322 --> 00:08:57.091
- Always great to see you, my friend.
- 00:08:57.091 --> 00:08:58.859
- Six events last week that you're going to have
- 00:08:58.859 --> 00:09:01.862
- In canada worship events, and they get abruptly canceled.
- 00:09:01.862 --> 00:09:04.798
- What exactly went on here?
- 00:09:04.798 --> 00:09:06.200
- And what does this say about what's happening up north?
- 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:10.404
- Yeah.
- 00:09:10.638 --> 00:09:11.739
- It's insane. i mean, you know, we did not expect this.
- 00:09:11.739 --> 00:09:13.774
- I've been leading worship
- 00:09:13.774 --> 00:09:14.975
- In canada for over 20 years, and so i have a long history
- 00:09:14.975 --> 00:09:18.612
- Of just just god moving in amazing ways.
- 00:09:18.612 --> 00:09:21.548
- This is our third year in a row of hosting.
- 00:09:21.548 --> 00:09:23.651
- Let us worship outdoor worship events.
- 00:09:23.651 --> 00:09:26.020
- We've had no issues.
- 00:09:26.020 --> 00:09:27.187
- And, you know, thousands of people come.
- 00:09:27.187 --> 00:09:29.623
- It's been really powerful.
- 00:09:29.623 --> 00:09:30.858
- But man, something
- 00:09:30.858 --> 00:09:32.259
- Stirred up this year and i believe god is using it.
- 00:09:32.259 --> 00:09:36.597
- As the whole world is seeing the resistance
- 00:09:36.597 --> 00:09:39.333
- Against simply peaceful
- 00:09:39.333 --> 00:09:41.168
- Christians coming together to worship and pray.
- 00:09:41.168 --> 00:09:43.270
- Not only that, obviously, you know,
- 00:09:43.270 --> 00:09:45.139
- The cities have been canceled our events, but,
- 00:09:45.139 --> 00:09:47.341
- You know, we've had antifa attack us inside of a church.
- 00:09:47.341 --> 00:09:50.577
- We've been fined.
- 00:09:50.577 --> 00:09:51.779
- I mean, the the mob online has come after us and harassed us.
- 00:09:51.779 --> 00:09:55.683
- But you know what?
- 00:09:55.683 --> 00:09:56.784
- The church is rising up and is not going to back down.
- 00:09:56.784 --> 00:10:00.287
- Amen.
- 00:10:00.287 --> 00:10:01.255
- God's not done with canada. hey. two things.
- 00:10:01.255 --> 00:10:03.090
- Number one, you've led worship around the world.
- 00:10:03.090 --> 00:10:05.659
- Tell us about
- 00:10:05.659 --> 00:10:06.527
- Where canada ranks in comparison
- 00:10:06.527 --> 00:10:08.629
- To places like in the middle east where you've worship.
- 00:10:08.629 --> 00:10:11.899
- And number two, what was the climate like on the ground?
- 00:10:11.899 --> 00:10:15.002
- What were they actually saying to you
- 00:10:15.002 --> 00:10:16.970
- As they tried to block these worship events in canada?
- 00:10:16.970 --> 00:10:20.307
- Yeah, i mean, i think it is wild.
- 00:10:21.075 --> 00:10:23.577
- You know,
- 00:10:23.577 --> 00:10:24.578
- I love going to the nations this year alone,
- 00:10:24.578 --> 00:10:27.147
- I've worshiped in in turkey, in israel, in iraq.
- 00:10:27.147 --> 00:10:31.885
- I've gone into mozambique in all different parts of the world.
- 00:10:31.885 --> 00:10:34.922
- And the biggest and most fierce resistance that i've faced
- 00:10:34.922 --> 00:10:38.759
- Has actually been in canada.
- 00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:40.828
- That's the biggest amount of, persecution and resistance.
- 00:10:40.828 --> 00:10:44.031
- And i did not expect that.
- 00:10:44.031 --> 00:10:46.433
- You know, but this goes to show you the,
- 00:10:46.433 --> 00:10:49.369
- The heavy anti-christian bias,
- 00:10:49.369 --> 00:10:51.605
- The governmental tyranny, and really
- 00:10:51.605 --> 00:10:53.607
- The need for the church to rise up and be bold in this hour.
- 00:10:53.607 --> 00:10:56.577
- And, you know, we
- 00:10:56.577 --> 00:10:57.845
- Every single venue that we went to, not only did we face these,
- 00:10:57.845 --> 00:11:01.315
- You know, government entities that want to silence
- 00:11:01.315 --> 00:11:03.350
- The church, but,
- 00:11:03.350 --> 00:11:04.418
- You know, every place there's the mob, you know,
- 00:11:04.418 --> 00:11:06.854
- The lgtbq mafia shows up and the protesters and antifa
- 00:11:06.854 --> 00:11:10.424
- Shows up, and their whole goal is to stop the people of god
- 00:11:10.424 --> 00:11:14.828
- From doing what they've done for thousands of years,
- 00:11:14.828 --> 00:11:16.864
- Stopped the people of god from worshiping.
- 00:11:16.864 --> 00:11:18.699
- Shut up.
- 00:11:18.699 --> 00:11:19.500
- Go into a room, put a mask on.
- 00:11:19.500 --> 00:11:21.802
- And you know what?
- 00:11:21.802 --> 00:11:23.036
- I'm so thankful that a remnant church is rising in that nation,
- 00:11:23.036 --> 00:11:26.540
- And we're starting to see a great push back.
- 00:11:26.540 --> 00:11:29.643
- Yeah, you cannot stop the gospel.
- 00:11:29.643 --> 00:11:31.812
- Many have tried.
- 00:11:31.812 --> 00:11:32.713
- They've all failed at the end of the day.
- 00:11:32.713 --> 00:11:34.248
- Sean,
- 00:11:34.248 --> 00:11:34.882
- You put yourself really in
- 00:11:34.882 --> 00:11:35.849
- Physical danger as well when you're in canada
- 00:11:35.849 --> 00:11:37.918
- Again, gas bomb of some sort was thrown at your face.
- 00:11:37.918 --> 00:11:41.688
- So this got very, very dangerous.
- 00:11:41.688 --> 00:11:43.891
- And look in the lead.
- 00:11:43.891 --> 00:11:44.725
- And i mentioned about 100 churches
- 00:11:44.725 --> 00:11:47.161
- Have been burned in canada over the past few years.
- 00:11:47.161 --> 00:11:50.264
- Why aren't we hearing more about this?
- 00:11:50.264 --> 00:11:54.101
- Well, you know,
- 00:11:54.468 --> 00:11:55.602
- There is a heavy wave of persecution in that country.
- 00:11:55.602 --> 00:11:58.438
- And, you know, to be honest with you,
- 00:11:58.438 --> 00:12:00.240
- I know a lot about christian persecution
- 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:02.743
- Around the world, but i was not made aware of this
- 00:12:02.743 --> 00:12:04.778
- Until i was in the center of it.
- 00:12:04.778 --> 00:12:06.713
- You know, we weren't looking for controversy.
- 00:12:06.713 --> 00:12:08.448
- We weren't looking for a fight.
- 00:12:08.448 --> 00:12:10.250
- But god is revealing these demonic principalities
- 00:12:10.250 --> 00:12:14.221
- That are trying to hold back and push down the people of god.
- 00:12:14.221 --> 00:12:16.924
- And so we didn't ask for the fight.
- 00:12:16.924 --> 00:12:18.725
- But here we are, and i feel like it is our job to expose it.
- 00:12:18.725 --> 00:12:22.362
- I believe it's time for the for our government,
- 00:12:22.362 --> 00:12:24.765
- The american government, to put pressure on canada.
- 00:12:24.765 --> 00:12:26.800
- I think it's time for the church to rise up,
- 00:12:26.800 --> 00:12:28.802
- And we got to do everything
- 00:12:28.802 --> 00:12:30.003
- That we can to call out the hypocrisy of the left
- 00:12:30.003 --> 00:12:33.407
- As they try to silence christians
- 00:12:33.407 --> 00:12:35.175
- And then, at the same time, call the church to rise up
- 00:12:35.175 --> 00:12:38.345
- As in a book of acts fashion and be bold for jesus.
- 00:12:38.345 --> 00:12:41.815
- Yeah, and just last week, sean,
- 00:12:41.815 --> 00:12:43.217
- As you were there, the prime minister of canada
- 00:12:43.217 --> 00:12:45.252
- Declared that he's going to recognize a palestinian state.
- 00:12:45.252 --> 00:12:48.589
- We've seen
- 00:12:48.589 --> 00:12:49.423
- Jews targeted in places like montreal,
- 00:12:49.423 --> 00:12:51.258
- Also a pivotal moment for that country right now.
- 00:12:51.258 --> 00:12:54.094
- And hey, you're not deterred.
- 00:12:54.094 --> 00:12:56.163
- You're heading back to canada soon, right?
- 00:12:56.163 --> 00:12:58.065
- Tell us more about what you have planned.
- 00:12:58.065 --> 00:13:00.300
- Yeah.
- 00:13:00.534 --> 00:13:01.101
- You know, it's almost
- 00:13:01.101 --> 00:13:02.369
- Like the streisand effect, you know,
- 00:13:02.369 --> 00:13:04.137
- When when they come to cancel you and
- 00:13:04.137 --> 00:13:06.139
- And silence you and everything else.
- 00:13:06.139 --> 00:13:07.941
- Like, god flips the script.
- 00:13:07.941 --> 00:13:09.409
- I mean, i can't tell you
- 00:13:09.409 --> 00:13:11.011
- Over the last week, i mean, members of parliament
- 00:13:11.011 --> 00:13:13.347
- Have risen up, pastors are rising up.
- 00:13:13.347 --> 00:13:15.349
- People are offering,
- 00:13:15.349 --> 00:13:16.617
- Alternate venues because they keep being canceled.
- 00:13:16.617 --> 00:13:18.919
- And there really is something god is doing is agitating people
- 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:23.457
- To take a stand.
- 00:13:23.457 --> 00:13:24.658
- We have people that are not even christians.
- 00:13:24.658 --> 00:13:27.127
- They would never step into a church.
- 00:13:27.127 --> 00:13:29.263
- They're showing up just because they're seeing the free,
- 00:13:29.263 --> 00:13:31.832
- The free press.
- 00:13:31.832 --> 00:13:32.900
- The media is giving us all the attention we need.
- 00:13:32.900 --> 00:13:35.469
- People are showing up and giving their life to jesus.
- 00:13:35.469 --> 00:13:37.671
- So yeah, we're coming back.
- 00:13:37.671 --> 00:13:38.939
- We have five more cities.
- 00:13:38.939 --> 00:13:40.507
- We're starting in winnipeg next week, and we go to saskatoon.
- 00:13:40.507 --> 00:13:44.444
- We go to edmonton, cologne, and then we end in abbotsford.
- 00:13:44.444 --> 00:13:49.149
- And i think, almost all of those
- 00:13:49.149 --> 00:13:51.218
- Except for two have been canceled.
- 00:13:51.218 --> 00:13:52.653
- So we have alternate venues, but really it's become a buzz.
- 00:13:52.653 --> 00:13:55.956
- It's gone viral.
- 00:13:55.956 --> 00:13:57.291
- The story of what's happening up there,
- 00:13:57.291 --> 00:13:59.359
- Everybody is paying attention.
- 00:13:59.359 --> 00:14:00.994
- And i'm just believing that god is going
- 00:14:00.994 --> 00:14:02.863
- To draw all men unto him,
- 00:14:02.863 --> 00:14:04.398
- And we're going to see a mighty harvest of souls.
- 00:14:04.398 --> 00:14:07.434
- Amen. sean, keep it up, my friend.
- 00:14:07.434 --> 00:14:09.403
- We're praying for you.
- 00:14:09.403 --> 00:14:10.337
- Come back and let us know how it goes.
- 00:14:10.337 --> 00:14:12.372
- This next round of worship events in canada.
- 00:14:12.372 --> 00:14:14.875
- Sean. be safe. god bless.
- 00:14:14.875 --> 00:14:16.443
- We're praying for you folks.
- 00:14:16.443 --> 00:14:17.511
- Follow sean across social media
- 00:14:17.511 --> 00:14:19.313
- And coming up, we head from canada to
- 00:14:19.313 --> 00:14:21.548
- California and a brand new bill that has christians under fire.
- 00:14:21.548 --> 00:14:25.919
- Pastor sami rodriguez is here with the inside story.
- 00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:29.189
- Next, stick around.
- 00:14:29.189 --> 00:14:32.001
- Next, stick around.
- 00:14:32.001 --> 00:14:35.259
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:14:36.026 --> 00:14:37.861
- He's advised presidents leads the national
- 00:14:37.861 --> 00:14:40.264
- Hispanic christian leadership conference
- 00:14:40.264 --> 00:14:42.132
- And stands unapologetically at the intersection
- 00:14:42.132 --> 00:14:45.069
- Of faith and culture.
- 00:14:45.069 --> 00:14:46.804
- Pastor sami rodriguez
- 00:14:46.804 --> 00:14:48.005
- Has never shied away from tough conversations.
- 00:14:48.005 --> 00:14:50.975
- From capitol hill to the streets of california.
- 00:14:50.975 --> 00:14:53.577
- And now, as radical legislation threatens families
- 00:14:53.577 --> 00:14:56.880
- And anti-semitism spreads across college campuses.
- 00:14:56.880 --> 00:15:00.684
- His voice is more needed than ever.
- 00:15:00.684 --> 00:15:02.886
- Pastor sam is also lead pastor of new season
- 00:15:02.886 --> 00:15:05.255
- Church in sacramento and is back tonight.
- 00:15:05.255 --> 00:15:07.458
- Contributor.
- 00:15:07.458 --> 00:15:08.359
- And he joins us now.
- 00:15:08.359 --> 00:15:09.393
- Pastor sam, always great to see you.
- 00:15:09.393 --> 00:15:11.462
- Hey, let's start in california.
- 00:15:11.462 --> 00:15:13.263
- This bill, ab 495, it's been called the legislator
- 00:15:13.263 --> 00:15:17.001
- Trafficking bill
- 00:15:17.001 --> 00:15:18.202
- Is being blasted by pro-family and anti-trafficking groups
- 00:15:18.202 --> 00:15:21.972
- For potentially criminalizing parents and ministries
- 00:15:21.972 --> 00:15:25.342
- That do not affirm the state's radical gender ideology.
- 00:15:25.342 --> 00:15:29.313
- Pastor sam, what do you think of this bill?
- 00:15:29.313 --> 00:15:31.148
- How danger it is dangerous is it for the people of california?
- 00:15:31.148 --> 00:15:35.986
- And unbelievably dangerous.
- 00:15:36.587 --> 00:15:37.955
- Thank you for having me. always great to be with you.
- 00:15:37.955 --> 00:15:40.090
- Unbelievably dangerous.
- 00:15:40.090 --> 00:15:41.825
- This is the moment.
- 00:15:41.825 --> 00:15:42.693
- This may be the rubicon, my friend.
- 00:15:42.693 --> 00:15:44.628
- This may be it.
- 00:15:44.628 --> 00:15:45.896
- It's the pastors in california.
- 00:15:45.896 --> 00:15:47.464
- And your privilege to the fact, erick,
- 00:15:47.464 --> 00:15:49.633
- That california has an incredible amount
- 00:15:49.633 --> 00:15:51.769
- Of influential churches, megachurches,
- 00:15:51.769 --> 00:15:53.971
- Networks, and so forth.
- 00:15:53.971 --> 00:15:55.305
- There is a stat out there that i need to confirm.
- 00:15:55.305 --> 00:15:57.875
- It actually states that there are more churches in california
- 00:15:57.875 --> 00:16:00.844
- Than any other state in america, which makes the logical sense.
- 00:16:00.844 --> 00:16:05.249
- If these bible believing pastors would stand up,
- 00:16:05.249 --> 00:16:08.218
- That we would build a firewall against this ludicrous.
- 00:16:08.218 --> 00:16:11.155
- We know that california is cuckoo for cocoa puffs,
- 00:16:11.155 --> 00:16:13.991
- But now they've taken this a step way, way too far.
- 00:16:13.991 --> 00:16:17.861
- And now, as parents and christians and pastors
- 00:16:17.861 --> 00:16:20.764
- Do not become fully engaged, this is it.
- 00:16:20.764 --> 00:16:24.101
- This is where they come after us for not affirming an ideology
- 00:16:24.101 --> 00:16:27.604
- That is counterintuitive to the word and the will of god.
- 00:16:27.604 --> 00:16:30.941
- Yeah, well, said, pastor sam, this is the rubicon.
- 00:16:30.941 --> 00:16:34.111
- You're right.
- 00:16:34.111 --> 00:16:35.312
- This is a line in the sand for believers in the golden state.
- 00:16:35.312 --> 00:16:37.714
- No doubt you're at the forefront of that.
- 00:16:37.714 --> 00:16:39.316
- Hey, speaking of madness in california, president trump
- 00:16:39.316 --> 00:16:42.920
- Recently froze hundreds of millions of dollars in grants
- 00:16:42.920 --> 00:16:47.257
- To ucla for the rampant anti-semitism on campus there.
- 00:16:47.257 --> 00:16:51.495
- Talk more about that and what a refreshing take
- 00:16:51.495 --> 00:16:54.598
- To have president trump hold these colleges accountable.
- 00:16:54.598 --> 00:16:58.602
- It's my taxpayer money.
- 00:16:59.103 --> 00:17:01.772
- It's your money.
- 00:17:01.772 --> 00:17:03.474
- The american funding anti-semitism,
- 00:17:03.474 --> 00:17:07.010
- The rodriguez of the rodriguez
- 00:17:07.010 --> 00:17:08.645
- Family want to fund anti-semitism.
- 00:17:08.645 --> 00:17:11.014
- The system. go back to family.
- 00:17:11.014 --> 00:17:12.249
- Want to take semitism? absolutely not.
- 00:17:12.249 --> 00:17:15.185
- It's the right thing to do.
- 00:17:15.185 --> 00:17:17.588
- These universities not just do the indoctrination,
- 00:17:17.588 --> 00:17:21.091
- But the messaging and the mobilization strategy.
- 00:17:21.091 --> 00:17:24.361
- These are hotbeds for anti-semitism across america.
- 00:17:24.361 --> 00:17:28.165
- These are little pro hamas centers.
- 00:17:28.165 --> 00:17:31.335
- They really are defacto non-for-profit centers
- 00:17:31.335 --> 00:17:35.272
- Expanding and exacerbating the ideology of hamas.
- 00:17:35.272 --> 00:17:39.176
- It's anti-semitism on steroids.
- 00:17:39.176 --> 00:17:41.345
- So i am glad once again, here's president trump, you know,
- 00:17:41.345 --> 00:17:45.115
- Exercising prophetic courage for such a time as this.
- 00:17:45.115 --> 00:17:49.186
- I completely applauded.
- 00:17:49.186 --> 00:17:50.721
- Go after every single university that permits
- 00:17:50.721 --> 00:17:54.191
- This perverse ideology to impact our children.
- 00:17:54.191 --> 00:17:57.661
- Yeah, it's all about accountability.
- 00:17:57.661 --> 00:17:59.129
- And the great thing is president trump has all the leverage
- 00:17:59.129 --> 00:18:01.198
- Over these universities, and he's not afraid to use it.
- 00:18:01.198 --> 00:18:03.734
- Hey, speaking of anti-semitism, pastor sam
- 00:18:03.734 --> 00:18:06.103
- And what's happening in israel right now,
- 00:18:06.103 --> 00:18:07.971
- Mike johnson, speaker johnson in israel right now, actually
- 00:18:07.971 --> 00:18:11.675
- In judea and samaria as well, the biblical heartland.
- 00:18:11.675 --> 00:18:15.779
- How important is it for people like a speaker johnson,
- 00:18:15.779 --> 00:18:18.415
- For president trump
- 00:18:18.415 --> 00:18:19.683
- To take a stand for the land right now, the land of israel,
- 00:18:19.683 --> 00:18:22.953
- As the anti-semitic madness is growing
- 00:18:22.953 --> 00:18:25.355
- And we see western leaders where there's the uk,
- 00:18:25.355 --> 00:18:28.425
- Canada, france caving to the pro hamas mobs.
- 00:18:28.425 --> 00:18:33.664
- Correct me if i'm wrong.
- 00:18:34.198 --> 00:18:35.399
- That's one of the highest ranking elected officials,
- 00:18:35.399 --> 00:18:38.802
- At least in my generation,
- 00:18:39.369 --> 00:18:41.405
- That affirming judea and samaria as an integral part
- 00:18:41.405 --> 00:18:45.842
- Of the state, the nation, and the destiny of israel.
- 00:18:45.842 --> 00:18:49.813
- That's not just news.
- 00:18:49.813 --> 00:18:52.149
- That's ginormous news.
- 00:18:52.149 --> 00:18:55.485
- And not only do i applaud it, it's the right thing to do.
- 00:18:55.485 --> 00:18:59.423
- It's it's a complete
- 00:18:59.423 --> 00:19:00.791
- Affirmation of what we know is biblically correct.
- 00:19:00.791 --> 00:19:04.328
- But even even more over,
- 00:19:04.861 --> 00:19:06.363
- It would be even more politically correct in light of
- 00:19:06.363 --> 00:19:08.865
- What's happening with hamas
- 00:19:08.865 --> 00:19:10.033
- And the threats from iran and so forth.
- 00:19:10.033 --> 00:19:11.902
- So might johnson.
- 00:19:11.902 --> 00:19:12.936
- Speaker johnson doing this is a clarion call,
- 00:19:12.936 --> 00:19:16.540
- A pushback on the uk, on france
- 00:19:16.540 --> 00:19:19.343
- That you mentioned the crazy protests in sydney, australia.
- 00:19:19.343 --> 00:19:22.980
- What was that?
- 00:19:22.980 --> 00:19:24.781
- It is a pushback on the western nations
- 00:19:24.781 --> 00:19:27.451
- That are being empathetic with evil.
- 00:19:27.451 --> 00:19:30.254
- Listen to me carefully.
- 00:19:30.254 --> 00:19:31.622
- There is no room for empathy as it pertains to evil.
- 00:19:31.622 --> 00:19:36.693
- You can't be empathetic with evil
- 00:19:36.693 --> 00:19:39.396
- And some of the western nations are drinking that kool-aid.
- 00:19:39.396 --> 00:19:42.699
- And speaker mike johnson is saying, not in our watch.
- 00:19:42.699 --> 00:19:45.769
- Yeah.
- 00:19:46.003 --> 00:19:47.271
- Pastor sam, you just returned from a whirlwind global tour.
- 00:19:47.271 --> 00:19:49.673
- New zealand, brazil, some other countries.
- 00:19:49.673 --> 00:19:52.509
- Do you get a sense that this is sort of a wheat and tares
- 00:19:52.509 --> 00:19:55.479
- Kind of moment, where there's a dividing line
- 00:19:55.479 --> 00:19:57.748
- Here and god is kind of separating the sheep
- 00:19:57.748 --> 00:19:59.816
- From the goats when it comes to nations.
- 00:19:59.816 --> 00:20:01.852
- And in many cases, it seems that israel maybe
- 00:20:01.852 --> 00:20:04.688
- That dividing line.
- 00:20:04.688 --> 00:20:06.590
- Here is a separation, without a doubt.
- 00:20:07.357 --> 00:20:09.259
- Erick, there is brilliantly laid out.
- 00:20:09.259 --> 00:20:11.261
- There is.
- 00:20:11.261 --> 00:20:11.962
- This is a matthew 25 moment.
- 00:20:11.962 --> 00:20:14.631
- The sheep, the goat moment.
- 00:20:14.631 --> 00:20:15.866
- You reference isaiah chapter five, verse 20 previously woe
- 00:20:15.866 --> 00:20:19.236
- To those that label good evil and evil good.
- 00:20:19.236 --> 00:20:22.539
- Woe to those that exchange light for darkness.
- 00:20:22.539 --> 00:20:25.409
- It's that.
- 00:20:25.409 --> 00:20:26.476
- But it's not arab nations versus israel.
- 00:20:26.476 --> 00:20:29.012
- It's not muslim nations versus israel.
- 00:20:29.012 --> 00:20:31.415
- It's western nations
- 00:20:31.415 --> 00:20:32.783
- That are abandoning a judeo-christian value system.
- 00:20:32.783 --> 00:20:35.786
- At the end of the day, it's about that the abandonment,
- 00:20:35.786 --> 00:20:39.222
- The refusal, the coming against the emerging as very strong
- 00:20:39.222 --> 00:20:43.627
- Antagonists towards a judeo-christian worldview.
- 00:20:43.627 --> 00:20:47.631
- Canada, australia, the uk, france.
- 00:20:47.631 --> 00:20:50.767
- And then on the other side, we have argentina, paraguay,
- 00:20:50.767 --> 00:20:54.538
- Ecuador, even peru rising up right now
- 00:20:54.538 --> 00:20:57.574
- We have italy, we have hungary, and even a shift in germany.
- 00:20:57.574 --> 00:21:01.845
- There are nations that are saying, no, not on our watch.
- 00:21:01.845 --> 00:21:04.114
- So it is sheep versus goat.
- 00:21:04.114 --> 00:21:06.583
- This is a moment of clarity.
- 00:21:06.583 --> 00:21:08.618
- And here we are to witness it and to advocate
- 00:21:08.618 --> 00:21:11.655
- For righteousness and justice, truth and love
- 00:21:11.655 --> 00:21:14.091
- For such a time as this.
- 00:21:14.091 --> 00:21:16.293
- Amen.
- 00:21:16.293 --> 00:21:17.194
- Pastor sam rodriguez always well said.
- 00:21:17.194 --> 00:21:19.262
- And hey, this is the time to shine the light in the darkness.
- 00:21:19.262 --> 00:21:22.599
- You are doing exactly
- 00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:23.734
- That in california and around the world, my friend.
- 00:21:23.734 --> 00:21:25.702
- Be sure to follow pastor sam x instagram across social media.
- 00:21:25.702 --> 00:21:29.573
- Pastor sam, great scene as always.
- 00:21:29.573 --> 00:21:31.007
- Keep up the great work my friend. god bless.
- 00:21:31.007 --> 00:21:33.176
- We'll see you again soon
- 00:21:33.176 --> 00:21:34.411
- And coming up after the break, my final thoughts on the world's
- 00:21:34.411 --> 00:21:38.648
- Turn against israel and what the god of israel has
- 00:21:38.648 --> 00:21:42.486
- To say about it. that's next. don't move.
- 00:21:42.486 --> 00:21:47.001
- To say about it. that's next. don't move.
- 00:21:47.001 --> 00:21:49.301
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight, folks.
- 00:21:50.202 --> 00:21:51.837
- We've been talking about this global
- 00:21:51.837 --> 00:21:53.339
- All out assault against israel and the jewish people.
- 00:21:53.339 --> 00:21:56.575
- That's really the only way i can put it.
- 00:21:56.575 --> 00:21:58.043
- Well guess what?
- 00:21:58.043 --> 00:21:59.145
- The god of israel, the god of abraham, isaac
- 00:21:59.145 --> 00:22:02.047
- And jacob, had a very stern warning about these days.
- 00:22:02.047 --> 00:22:05.384
- Book of zechariah, chapter 12, verses two and three.
- 00:22:05.384 --> 00:22:08.587
- I am going to make jerusalem.
- 00:22:08.587 --> 00:22:10.156
- God says, a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling.
- 00:22:10.156 --> 00:22:15.027
- Judah will be besieged as well as jerusalem on that day
- 00:22:15.027 --> 00:22:20.032
- When all the nations of the earth are gathered against her,
- 00:22:20.032 --> 00:22:23.235
- I will make jerusalem an immovable rock for all the
- 00:22:23.235 --> 00:22:27.039
- Nations.
- 00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:28.073
- All who try to move it will injure themselves.
- 00:22:28.073 --> 00:22:31.444
- Folks, that's a cautionary tale not only for the likes
- 00:22:31.444 --> 00:22:34.013
- Of hamas, iran and hezbollah, of course, but for the u.n.
- 00:22:34.013 --> 00:22:37.850
- And for european nations.
- 00:22:37.850 --> 00:22:39.485
- And if, god forbid, america ever took an anti-israel turn,
- 00:22:39.485 --> 00:22:43.689
- The god of israel is a promise keeping god.
- 00:22:43.689 --> 00:22:46.492
- He keeps his covenants, his promises to his land
- 00:22:46.492 --> 00:22:49.528
- And his people.
- 00:22:49.528 --> 00:22:50.463
- And guess what? he's still on the throne.
- 00:22:50.463 --> 00:22:52.765
- Hey, tomorrow we will be in jerusalem,
- 00:22:52.765 --> 00:22:55.868
