Caption transcript for Close Encounters with Yeshua: “God is Coming” (1/10)
- 00:01 Hi, I'm David Hart.
 - 00:02 And I'm Kirsten Hart.
 - 00:03 Welcome to Zola Levitt Presents.
 - 00:05 We're excited to be a part of this first series
 - 00:08 "Close Encounters with Yeshua".
 - 00:09 Myles will be on location teaching
 - 00:12 in the Judean wilderness
 - 00:14 between Jerusalem and Jericho.
 - 00:16 We'll also have a reenactment with an Israeli actor
 - 00:18 And an interview with Israeli believers
 - 00:21 that run the Aliyah Return Center.
 - 00:25 Stay with us.
 - 00:34 It was not long ago our first encounter
 - 00:36 on the waters of the Galilee.
 - 00:38 My hand is completely restored.
 - 00:41 He said, Your faith has saved you.
 - 00:44 I've heard Yeshua speak in our synagogue.
 - 00:48 He talked about the Kingdom of God.
 - 00:51 Then He showed us His wounds in His hands and His feet.
 - 00:54 I believe He really is a King.
 - 01:07 Shalom Haverim, Hello Friends
 - 01:09 and welcome to our program.
 - 01:10 I'm Myles Weiss.
 - 01:12 And I'm Katharine Weiss.
 - 01:13 And we want to welcome you to our new series
 - 01:15 "Close Encounters with Yeshua.
 - 01:16 We bring you into the life of Yeshua as a Jewish man.
 - 01:20 Yeah, this is so great to contextualize Him,
 - 01:22 to realize that He is the Jewish Messiah
 - 01:24 and the Savior of the World
 - 01:26 and to really help our viewers
 - 01:28 and help whoever sees this to understand
 - 01:30 that Christianity came from somewhere.
 - 01:32 Yes
 - 01:33 That's been a theme for this program for over 30 years.
 - 01:35 Christianity through Jewish eyes - Right?
 - 01:37 Yes.
 - 01:39 And it was so awakening for you when you saw the Scriptures
 - 01:41 that the whole life of Jesus was a Jewish man.
 - 01:44 It was stunning, life changing obviously.
 - 01:47 But really I remember feeling like
 - 01:49 Why didn't my Rabbi tell me this - What Happened?.
 - 01:51 Where was the idea that this
 - 01:52 is absolutely a Jewish story
 - 01:55 and that God in His grace has opened
 - 01:57 the Gospel to the whole world?
 - 01:58 Right - so we'll also take you to hear from people in the Land
 - 02:01 and how they're journey coming to know their Messiah
 - 02:04 and how they overcame the same things that you did Myles.
 - 02:07 Yeah, well it's not overcoming our own sin
 - 02:09 but truthfully the sins of the Church,
 - 02:12 the historical Church which has been persecutory to the Jewish people.
 - 02:16 So it's a great stumbling block for our people.
 - 02:18 But the good news in this program and in this series
 - 02:21 we're going to see close encounters with Yeshua
 - 02:24 both at the time of Jesus
 - 02:26 through biblical reenactments
 - 02:27 and also living testimonies from today.
 - 02:29 So let's begin with our first drama.
 - 02:41 His name is Zacharias.
 - 02:45 He's a Priest in a Temple like me.
 - 02:48 He burns incense on the Holy Altar.
 - 02:54 I'm not sure what to think of it.
 - 02:57 They tell me, one day he was visited by an Angel who stood by the altar
 - 03:01 and told him he would father a child.
 - 03:05 He's an old man and his wife Elizabeth
 - 03:10 she's well past such notions.
 - 03:14 But it happened.
 - 03:18 They bore a child
 - 03:22 and named him "Yochanan" - "John"
 - 03:26 Not exactly a family name
 - 03:29 but apparently given to him by the Angel well before his birth.
 - 03:36 On the 8th day they came to circumcise the child.
 - 03:39 Zecharias prophesied.
 - 03:42 He said the Lord God of Israel
 - 03:45 has visited His people and granted "redemption" - "gahula",
 - 03:53 said his son would go ahead of the one who's yet to come,
 - 04:00 a "Deliverer" from the House of David,
 - 04:06 a Savior.
 - 04:13 It's a promise
 - 04:16 given to us long ago
 - 04:19 by Abraham
 - 04:21 and our Fathers.
 - 04:29 I pray it is so.
 - 04:36 More than ever we welcome Him
 - 04:40 Mashiach
 - 04:43 The Anointed One
 - 05:01 Some people have always believed in
 - 05:02 the promises that are in this Book.
 - 05:05 Some people have believed
 - 05:06 before the Book was written.
 - 05:08 We're here in the desert,
 - 05:09 desert Midbar,
 - 05:11 one of the root words for the word to speak.
 - 05:14 And it's here that God speaks.
 - 05:16 It's here in the loneliness,
 - 05:18 in the solitude and the quiet
 - 05:20 that the God of all creation spoke,
 - 05:23 called Abraham from here.
 - 05:25 Think about what this place means to God.
 - 05:27 It's a place where we become dependant on Him.
 - 05:31 This isn't like in Egypt where there's a
 - 05:33 giant Nile River to overflow and create crops.
 - 05:36 Here life moves forward by God's protection,
 - 05:40 by God's anointing,
 - 05:42 by God's covering
 - 05:43 and His provision.
 - 05:44 This is a place of testing,
 - 05:46 a place of proving.
 - 05:48 This is a place where Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
 - 05:51 came up from to go into the Promised Land.
 - 05:55 When you think about the desert
 - 05:57 you think about the harsh conditions.
 - 05:59 It's brutal during the day
 - 06:01 and it's cold at night.
 - 06:02 And without the protection of God
 - 06:04 and a cloud during the day to keep you cool,
 - 06:07 a pillar of fire at night to keep you warm
 - 06:10 like He did with Moses and the children of Israel in the wilderness.
 - 06:13 Without that provision from God.
 - 06:15 Without water from a rock.
 - 06:17 Without Him guiding you into
 - 06:19 the ability to live in a place like this.
 - 06:22 To come through this we cannot make it.
 - 06:24 This is where we learn dependence on God.
 - 06:27 This is where we learn that what is written in here
 - 06:31 is in fact true, prophetic and is coming true in our lives.
 - 06:35 It's coming true in our day.
 - 06:37 We are in an exciting time right now.
 - 06:39 This entire series is about the power of Yeshua
 - 06:42 the reality of the supernatural act of God
 - 06:46 intervening in man's life
 - 06:48 by becoming a Savior,
 - 06:50 by becoming a provision,
 - 06:52 by becoming the One who brings protection
 - 06:55 in life and through all eternity.
 - 06:58 Out here you can almost sense Abraham traveling up to the Land.
 - 07:04 You can sense Isaac and Jacob coming through this place.
 - 07:07 Moses with the children of Israel.
 - 07:10 And it's a place where Joshua walked with Moses before he took the land.
 - 07:17 A type of Yeshua taking back the earth for Himself.
 - 07:20 John was out in the wilderness calling people to repentance.
 - 07:24 And Yeshua Himself driven into the wilderness by the Spirit in order
 - 07:29 to be tested 40 days and 40 nights,
 - 07:32 a parallel with Moses who went up on the mountain
 - 07:34 for 40 days and 40 nights.
 - 07:36 Cause God was fulfilling His Scripture in Deuteronomy 18:[18]
 - 07:47 That prophet, that provision, the Priest,
 - 07:51 that King to come is Yeshua Ha Mashiach, Jesus of Nazareth.
 - 07:56 Good news today that many, many more Jewish people
 - 07:59 are understanding that He is in fact our Messiah.
 - 08:03 We're coming closer to Him.
 - 08:05 It's in a place like this that we realize that we
 - 08:08 need to listen, to hear Him speak
 - 08:11 and to know that our dependence is not a bad thing.
 - 08:14 Our dependence is a necessary thing.
 - 08:16 We like to be self-sufficient
 - 08:19 especially in the modern world.
 - 08:21 We like to feel like we are in charge of things,
 - 08:22 we are in control of things,
 - 08:24 we've got it all figured out.
 - 08:25 But the reality is when you go down deep enough,
 - 08:28 when you come out to a place like this
 - 08:29 you realize how small you are
 - 08:32 and how dependant you are on the Creator of the heavens and the earth.
 - 08:37 We're praying that throughout this series
 - 08:40 you're going to have an experience of the words of Jesus,
 - 08:42 the calling of Jesus,
 - 08:44 and the future that He wants to create for you,
 - 08:47 a life now abundantly
 - 08:49 and a life with Him eternally.
 - 08:51 So let's draw near to Yeshua.
 - 08:53 Let's have a close encounter with Yeshua.

 - 09:24 An informative and stunningly
 - 09:26 beautiful history
 - 09:27 of the people God chose
 - 09:29 and the special men among them
 - 09:31 that He used for His purposes.
 - 09:33 A 9 part series on 3 DVDs
 - 09:37 "Sons of Israel"
 - 09:40 Hi, my name is Belinda Moon
 - 09:42 and I'm a 2nd generation contributor
 - 09:44 to Zola Levitt Ministries.
 - 09:46 My parents supported the ministry.
 - 09:48 And I found it when Myles and Katharine came on board.
 - 09:51 Through their teaching
 - 09:53 I have learned a lot about the Bible
 - 09:55 and why it's important for me to stand with Israel.
 - 09:58 Please join me in supporting this ministry.
 - 10:08 It's amazing that in our day
 - 10:10 people believe all kinds of things about
 - 10:12 the supernatural,
 - 10:14 about darkness,
 - 10:15 about aliens.
 - 10:17 And yet they have the hardest time believing in the supernatural
 - 10:19 birth, death and resurrection of Yeshua Ha Mashiach.
 - 10:24 And yet that is the story of God.
 - 10:26 It's a love story from start to finish.
 - 10:28 It begins with a wedding in the Garden
 - 10:30 and it ends with a wedding that's to come
 - 10:32 between the Bridegroom of heaven
 - 10:34 and those that say "yes" to Him.
 - 10:35 And the desert is a place to say "yes".
 - 10:38 It was in a desert like this that
 - 10:40 Abraham said "yes" and took upon himself
 - 10:43 the Covenant that God made for him with him
 - 10:46 which was to covenant with the descendents
 - 10:51 of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob whose name is Israel
 - 10:54 to have the Land of Promise
 - 10:56 and to bring forth the Messiah of Promise.
 - 10:59 In Genesis 3:15 we see the battle between Light and darkness
 - 11:04 as God says to the serpent - He warns him
 - 11:19 That's speaking of the Cross,
 - 11:22 the execution stake,
 - 11:24 the tree upon which Yeshua would be sacrificed.
 - 11:28 No man took His life.
 - 11:29 He laid it down for you and for me.
 - 11:32 It was my sin that put Him there
 - 11:34 and yours as well.
 - 11:36 I remember before I came to faith
 - 11:38 I didn't even believe in sin.
 - 11:39 It's pretty funny looking back now.
 - 11:41 Cause I know I am a sinner who needs a Holy God to touch him.
 - 11:47 In Matthew 1:1 in the Brit Hadashah, the New Covenant,
 - 11:51 prophesied by Jeremiah in Chapter 31,
 - 11:58 The writing says,
 - 11:59 [Speaking Hebrew]
 - 12:10 And that's the story about how salvation
 - 12:13 came through a certain family,
 - 12:15 came through a certain line.
 - 12:16 There were promises made to Moses,
 - 12:19 promises made to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses,
 - 12:21 to all of the tribes of Israel.
 - 12:24 In fact, to the Tribe of Judah
 - 12:26 that it would be from the Tribe of Judah
 - 12:28 which is where David is from.
 - 12:31 From the seed of David that Messiah would come.
 - 12:33 It's all laid out in this Book
 - 12:34 but it's supernaturally orchestrated by God.
 - 12:37 There's no way that man can make this happen.
 - 12:41 There's no way that it could be coincidence.
 - 12:43 There's no way that it's possible
 - 12:45 for the events of these 66 books which are cohesive
 - 12:49 and make one story stretched over thousands of years
 - 12:52 that they could hold together
 - 12:54 accept for the reality of a supernatural God
 - 12:57 intervening in the life of man.
 - 13:00 The promise to King David was that there would
 - 13:03 always be someone to rule on his throne.
 - 13:06 How is that possible?
 - 13:07 Kings come and go, people die.
 - 13:10 But what if a King came who was from eternity?
 - 13:14 What if a King came for example out of David's home town Bethlehem
 - 13:17 as Micah said in Chapter 5:2?
 - 13:29 What if the prophets were right and
 - 13:33 the story was written and it was set
 - 13:35 and Yeshua was going to come from the Tribe of Judah
 - 13:39 from the line of David,
 - 13:40 from the City of David
 - 13:42 to come and be Salvation for you and for me?
 - 13:45 That's what this series is about.
 - 13:49 We're looking for our close encounters with Yeshua.
 - 13:52 We're looking to grow in our understanding
 - 13:54 that He is in fact the Promised Seed,
 - 13:57 the Promised Messiah.
 - 13:58 And He's looking for a relationship with you.
 - 14:00 The desert is about dependence and relationship.
 - 14:04 Come on out to the desert with us
 - 14:06 and have an encounter with Yeshua.
 - 14:41 For more information on our next tour to Israel call:
 - 14:50 We would love to host you
 - 14:51 on a Pilgrimage to Israel.
 - 14:53 There's nothing like it in the world.
 - 14:55 Everybody that comes with us
 - 14:57 raves about our tours
 - 14:59 because you really see the Bible come alive.
 - 15:01 And it's just life changing.
 - 15:02 So we want to invite you to come with us
 - 15:04 in Spring or in Fall.
 - 15:05 Call 1-800-WONDERS
 - 15:07 Go to levitt.com
 - 15:08 And go to the Land that belongs to God.
 - 15:10 Absolutely,
 - 15:12 Go to the places where God has made covenant with man.
 - 15:15 And He is continuing to keep His covenant with the Land itself.
 - 15:18 It's blooming in these days
 - 15:20 and we want to show you God's miraculous
 - 15:22 rebirth of the Land of Israel.
 - 15:24 You know it's been said that
 - 15:26 the sound of the shofar is
 - 15:27 the sound of God's provision.
 - 15:30 In Genesis 22 God provided a ram.
 - 15:34 And it is the same for us today.
 - 15:36 He is the God of provision.
 - 15:39 So let's go now to the Judean desert
 - 15:41 and hear the sound of the shofar.
 - 15:45 [Myles blowing the shofar]
 - 15:54 The sound of the shofar goes back to Genesis 22
 - 15:57 when Abraham and Isaac walked through a place like this
 - 16:00 and went up to the mountains of Israel.
 - 16:04 It was where God Himself provided the scapegoat
 - 16:07 to take Isaac's place.
 - 16:09 There's so much promise in the Word of God.
 - 16:12 But also only God can bring His Word to pass.
 - 16:16 Man cannot do it.
 - 16:18 Abraham was promised in Genesis 12
 - 16:21 that he would be the father of many.
 - 16:24 And in his own self
 - 16:25 and in Sarah's own strength
 - 16:27 they could not bring that promise to pass.
 - 16:29 Only God could provide the seed
 - 16:33 that would bring the promise
 - 16:35 of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
 - 16:37 And in that promise Abraham was willing
 - 16:40 to let it all go because God said,
 - 16:42 Would you come up in a journey and
 - 16:45 worship me on the mountain.
 - 16:47 And would you be willing to give me
 - 16:49 the very best of your life.
 - 16:51 And that is your son.
 - 16:52 And he was willing.
 - 16:54 But there was a voice from heaven.
 - 16:55 It was an Angel.
 - 16:56 And we'll hear time and time again as
 - 16:58 we have close encounters with Yeshua in this series.
 - 17:02 Close encounters with God that is the Angel of the Lord that speaks.
 - 17:06 It's the Angel of the Lord or Yeshua Himself
 - 17:09 that reveals the way of salvation.
 - 17:11 And it was the ram in the thicket.
 - 17:14 That is where the shofar is born.
 - 17:17 You know the provision that God makes is
 - 17:20 such a picture of what would come in the future
 - 17:22 because we couldn't be saved by the blood of Isaac.
 - 17:26 It had to be supernatural blood that came from above.
 - 17:29 Their life is in the blood
 - 17:31 Scripture tells us.
 - 17:32 And it has to be like kind.
 - 17:34 So God Himself had to come
 - 17:36 through the line of Abraham to
 - 17:38 become the Promised Messiah
 - 17:40 and to go to the cross for and for me.
 - 17:42 You know one thing about the desert
 - 17:43 reminds me a lot about the story of Ruth.
 - 17:46 I like the...
 - 17:48 what's happening now in the world.
 - 17:49 There's so much of what is called inter-marriage
 - 17:52 but it really is the coming together
 - 17:54 of the Gentiles and the Jews
 - 17:55 to find the House of Bread together.
 - 17:57 There's a great story in this
 - 17:59 where the coming up from the desert again
 - 18:01 and looking for the House of Bread,
 - 18:03 looking for sustenance
 - 18:05 and finding it in the Promised Land.
 - 18:07 And it was Ruth the Gentile Moabitess
 - 18:09 who was outside the Covenant
 - 18:11 who came in and knitted herself
 - 18:13 to the Covenant of Abraham,
 - 18:15 to the Covenant of Israel
 - 18:16 and brought Naomi into the Promised Land.
 - 18:18 Together they found Boaz, the Lord of the harvest.
 - 18:21 I love how she had her close encounter
 - 18:24 with the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
 - 18:26 She said, Your people shall be my people, your God my God.
 - 18:30 Where you go I will go.
 - 18:32 And we know that God is calling many of you, our viewers
 - 18:35 to have that same wedding with the Land and the people that
 - 18:39 God has planned to give this Land.
 - 18:41 You know it's the Land of Promise.
 - 18:43 It's not a land of ease.
 - 18:45 There has to be a plan.
 - 18:46 And it is His plan of promise
 - 18:48 and He Himself will bring it to pass.
 - 18:50 It's so humorous in a sense, it's so ironic that
 - 18:53 there's such a struggle over the Land of Israel.
 - 18:55 The Land of Israel in its current form
 - 18:57 is a fraction of the promise that was made to Abraham
 - 19:00 because in Genesis 17
 - 19:02 He tells Abraham to look up and see
 - 19:04 everywhere his eyes could see from the
 - 19:07 River Euphrates to the Great River in Egypt the River Nile.
 - 19:10 That's a much bigger promise
 - 19:12 than what we're currently battling over.
 - 19:14 But the Land Covenant is part of the story.
 - 19:17 In this series, "Close Encounters with Yeshua"
 - 19:20 we're going to see the promise to the Land,
 - 19:22 the promise to the people,
 - 19:24 and this new thing that God is doing in the earth
 - 19:27 of bringing Christians into a loving relationship with Israel
 - 19:30 and then calling us together to become His Bride.
 - 19:34 And that's where we're headed,
 - 19:35 to a wedding in the sky.
 - 19:46 We love the story of Ruth
 - 19:48 how that pictures the Jews and Gentiles
 - 19:50 together going into the Land
 - 19:52 and worshipping God together.
 - 19:53 We see that today.
 - 19:54 We see the Land being restored,
 - 19:56 the people coming back.
 - 19:57 And we even see it into heaven.
 - 19:58 In Revelation 19 where the Bride, made up of the Jews and Gentles,
 - 20:02 has made herself ready.
 - 20:03 Absolutely
 - 20:04 There's a company of people, of Gentile believers that are
 - 20:07 reading the Scriptures and seeing that it's
 - 20:09 our job to comfort the people.
 - 20:11 It says in Isaiah 40 "Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye My People.
 - 20:16 And one of the ways we comfort the people of Israel
 - 20:19 is to see them brought back into the Land of God's promise for them.
 - 20:23 Myles interviews a father and son team up in the Galilee.
 - 20:27 Let's go now and hear from them.
 - 20:31 One of our biggest projects is certainly
 - 20:33 helping the Jewish people home.
 - 20:35 And that begins with helping the Church understand its role.
 - 20:37 And so how do they interact with the Jews in their own communities?
 - 20:41 How can they do it from a relational standpoint so that
 - 20:44 they can be with those same Jews
 - 20:46 who ultimately will make their return to the Land of Israel?
 - 20:50 Bringing the Russian Jews home, it was one thing.
 - 20:53 You know, you paid off their debts,
 - 20:55 you helped them with their paperwork,
 - 20:57 you got them on our bus to the airport,
 - 20:59 and the Jewish agency took over and brought them home.
 - 21:02 Working with North American Jews,
 - 21:03 they're not bringing 2 bags home.
 - 21:05 Some of them are bringing 2 containers home.
 - 21:07 And when they get here how do we work with them here?
 - 21:10 We bring them up to the Galilee to a place called the Aliyah Return Center.
 - 21:15 There we want to give them vacations.
 - 21:17 We want them to interact with Christians
 - 21:19 at a place where there's a reflection of unconditional love.
 - 21:24 You might call it like the Green Hilton.
 - 21:27 It's a Hotel, a Guest House which gives free stay
 - 21:30 as well as regular international guests,
 - 21:33 world changing intercessors, etc.
 - 21:35 Also, it gives and matchmakes between
 - 21:38 Jewish people who are returning and making their home here...
 - 21:42 We give them their first home in the nation,
 - 21:44 and then help them find a permanent home.
 - 21:46 And we do that up here in the Galilee.
 - 21:49 We provide for some of the new "Olim" that are coming back.
 - 21:52 I'm working with my son-in-law.
 - 21:54 I was at a worship evening and I met this girl
 - 21:57 who is so enthralled with the restoration of Israel,
 - 22:00 the return and the restoration of Israel,
 - 22:02 that she said, I'm just in love with God's plans.
 - 22:05 And I said, are you Jewish?
 - 22:06 And she says, No I'm not but I love the Jewish people.
 - 22:09 And I was a soldier in the Army having seen
 - 22:11 divine protection over my life at that time.
 - 22:13 And I told her some of this.
 - 22:15 We ended up falling in love.
 - 22:16 And the ministry she was a part of
 - 22:18 was called "Return Ministries"
 - 22:19 And they helped Jewish people return
 - 22:21 along with other ministries,
 - 22:23 helped them to return here to Israel.
 - 22:24 But as I said, we need to help them get absorbed
 - 22:27 integrated, attached, acclimated, acculturated,
 - 22:31 all these nice words.
 - 22:33 Pretty much, get their roots to go deep in the soil of Israel
 - 22:35 and not to be uprooted.
 - 22:37 Amos 9, says they will no longer be pulled out of the Land that I've given them.
 - 22:41 So we said, How can we do that?
 - 22:43 And we thought of this idea,
 - 22:44 my father-in-law and myself.
 - 22:46 We have found that the last words of Jesus before He ascended were,
 - 22:56 I don't believe those Words are rescinded.
 - 22:58 And yet going into Judea and Samaria is not the popular thing to do.
 - 23:01 So what we like to do is take our new olim into Judea and Samaria.
 - 23:05 We want them to see Elon Moreh.
 - 23:07 We want them to know where Abraham first worshipped.
 - 23:10 We want them to know where the Ark stood for 369 and a half years.
 - 23:14 We want them to know where Jacob had a dream on a hard rock and
 - 23:18 woke up and said, Hey this is an awesome Place.
 - 23:20 We want them to know that where 80% of their Bible comes from is
 - 23:26 a place that we together whether we're Jew or non-Jew
 - 23:29 need to stand together before so much pressure
 - 23:33 that's coming from the nations.
 - 23:34 Right now the biggest and most ground breaking thing
 - 23:37 that I've ever heard of in Israel
 - 23:39 is that the Jewish Agency of Israel,
 - 23:41 friend of Netanyahu our Prime Minister,
 - 23:43 has signed an agreement to work with us fully and
 - 23:47 completely as partners in developing a huge kibbutz
 - 23:50 that was deserted right here in the Jordan Valley.
 - 23:53 You know what Ezekiel says about the Jordan Valley
 - 23:56 but I specifically like Ezekiel 36 verse 24
 - 24:08 And I feel that I'm a part of that as a believer and this
 - 24:11 is just I think the first fruits of the rest of the harvest.
 - 24:16 I'd like you to look directly at the camera
 - 24:18 and bring a word, a prayer request
 - 24:20 or anything you'd like our viewers
 - 24:23 to know about or pray for.
 - 24:25 I want to call you to understand the era in which we live
 - 24:31 in where there is an Israel, when there is a liberated Jerusalem.
 - 24:34 And what is our role as Gentiles cooperating
 - 24:38 with what God is doing in this hour.
 - 24:41 Brothers and Sisters, family from all over the world
 - 24:45 I want to ask you to number one pray
 - 24:47 for God's restoration plans and the fulfillment
 - 24:50 of 700 prophecies of the Jews coming back home.
 - 24:55 Join with us.
 - 24:57 Come and see for yourself what God is doing.
 - 24:59 Come and become a return member with us.
 - 25:02 It's just pretty much helping sponsor
 - 25:04 another Jewish family while you yourself
 - 25:06 are there with them meeting them.
 - 25:08 And lastly, come volunteer.
 - 25:10 But don't wait too long because
 - 25:12 God's prophesies are being fulfilled
 - 25:13 right now in and through us
 - 25:15 and it's an adventure.
 - 25:16 So let's have an adventure together.

 - 25:44 We love Chaim's videos
 - 25:46 on this ministry's Facebook Page.
 - 25:49 He's funny,
 - 25:50 he's insightful
 - 25:51 and I promise you will not be bored
 - 25:53 watching his videos.
 - 25:55 He and his adorable family
 - 25:56 made Aliyah from America
 - 25:59 and now they live up in the Galilee area.
 - 26:01 Our son made Aliyah
 - 26:05 in a sense, not officially.
 - 26:07 We're Galileans.
 - 26:08 Well, he moved to Jerusalem
 - 26:10 just this past August and he is working with the
 - 26:13 International Christian Embassy.
 - 26:16 So he is busy there helping people himself
 - 26:19 make Aliyah.
 - 26:20 And it's just amazing to see
 - 26:22 what is happening in the Holy Land.
 - 26:24 People are coming.
 - 26:25 They're coming from the North, South, East and the West
 - 26:29 to move back to God's Country.
 - 26:31 That's right.
 - 26:31 We were just with our son.
 - 26:33 And it was amazing to us to see him
 - 26:35 walking in the same steps that Jesus, Yeshua has walked.
 - 26:39 And it's just amazing to watch his life.
 - 26:42 It's wonderful.
 - 26:43 Now, social media is an important part of this ministry.
