• 00:27 Caleb Colson: Ah! Augh!
• 00:29 Joshua Colson: Oh!
• 00:31 Caleb: Shh, shh, shh!
• 00:32 I heard something, Josh.
• 00:35 There's something.
• 00:36 Joshua: Ha!
• 00:38 Caleb: Josh, I think someone's trying to break in.
• 00:40 Joshua: Then I'll break their body.
• 00:42 I've watched every Chuck Norris movie ever made.
• 00:47 Why is this so small?
• 00:49 Caleb: Be careful.
• 00:54 What?
• 00:55 Ryan Economy: Oh, guys, freeze, their vision is impaired when we
• 00:58 don't move.
• 00:59 Joshua: Oh crap, where'd they go?
• 01:01 They just disappeared. Did you see them?
• 01:03 They were here and now they're not moving.
• 01:04 Caleb: Yeah, how does it work?
• 01:05 Where are you going?
• 01:07 Joshua: Oh, they're back again.
• 01:08 Oh, oh, they can disappear and reappear.
• 01:11 Wait, where are you going?
• 01:14 Mike Ferland: We're going hunting and fishing.
• 01:16 Caleb: Why wouldn't you go hunting and fishing with your
• 01:17 best Jewish friends?
• 01:19 Mike Ferland: I mean, you are our best Jewish friends, and
• 01:21 it's not because you're really loud and make noise in the woods
• 01:25 and scare all the turkeys away.
• 01:27 And I'm afraid that they're gonna think you're Sasquatch
• 01:31 and shoot at us.
• 01:32 Caleb: Well, guys, today is the episode about bringing the
• 01:36 gospel to the Jew first.
• 01:38 You need Jewish insight from us.
• 01:41 How can you teach about Jewish people without Jewish people?
• 01:44 Mike Ferland: That's a good point.
• 01:46 Israel Hanna: Caleb, I didn't want to leave you.
• 01:47 Joshua: I--thank you.
• 01:48 Since when did you start wearing pants on your face?
• 01:50 Israel: I'm with you now, guys.
• 01:52 I don't wanna leave you.
• 01:53 Mike Ferland: It was his idea.
• 01:54 Caleb: I'm getting my hunting pants.
• 01:56 I'm coming right back.
• 01:57 Mike Ferland: Okay, we'll wait for you.
• 01:58 Ryan: Israel threw us under the bus and drove over back
• 02:01 and forth, yeah, like--

• 02:43 Caleb: Romans 1:16 through 17, "For I am not ashamed of the
• 02:47 gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for
• 02:50 everyone who believes, for the Jew first and
• 02:53 also for the Greek.
• 02:55 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to
• 02:58 faith; as it is written, 'The just shall live by faith.'"
• 03:02 Caleb: The just shall live by faith.
• 03:04 What an amazing scripture.
• 03:06 Jews and Gentiles get to come to salvation, but we gotta learn
• 03:10 how to bring those Jewish people into the kingdom of God.
• 03:13 And I thought, what better way than to come back fishing, you
• 03:16 know, we kind of--we didn't do so good the first time, so I
• 03:18 thought let's go back again the second time--
• 03:21 We're still not doing too good.
• 03:22 Joshua: You thought that we would show triumphant capturing
• 03:26 by coming back to where we fish really well?
• 03:27 Caleb: We're all, like, hanging a bunch of fish
• 03:28 over our shoulders.
• 03:30 Joshua: The only one that fished well the first time was Dara.
• 03:32 Dara Economy: And it wasn't long lasted.
• 03:33 Why was that?
• 03:35 Joshua: Because you let him fish.
• 03:37 He's good at everything but fishing.
• 03:39 Ryan: I thought I saw a fish off of the tree.
• 03:40 Joshua: That's such a Ryan thing to do.
• 03:45 Ryan: Where'd it go? Dara: In the trees.
• 03:50 Caleb: A flying fish.
• 03:52 Ryan: I thought that's why they call it fly fishing,
• 03:53 but we're back at it again.
• 03:54 Caleb: So, what can you teach us, Ryan, about how to be
• 03:57 good fishermen?
• 03:58 Ryan: So, I'm gonna take things at a different angle rather than
• 04:01 actually fishing for fish.
• 04:03 I'm gonna talk about fishing for men.
• 04:06 So, as he's walking along the Sea of Galilee, he saw two
• 04:10 brothers, Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew.
• 04:14 They were casting a net into the sea.
• 04:16 "Follow me," he told them, "and I will make you fish
• 04:20 for people."
• 04:21 Immediately, they left their nets and followed him.
• 04:24 So, what that entails is not actually throwing
• 04:28 nets onto people.
• 04:29 It's a more--a grateful way actually where we're saving
• 04:33 people from bad things that could happen in their lives.
• 04:37 They might not see the real light, and the real light
• 04:40 is Jesus.
• 04:41 And he's the one that is saving people from eternity and away
• 04:45 from him, which is something that I don't wish even my
• 04:48 enemies to experience.
• 04:50 If we're trying to save people, we're trying to be fisher of
• 04:53 men, trying to rescue people out of darkness, that also entails
• 04:58 people that we don't love, people that we are not--we don't
• 05:01 like, but Jesus instructs us very clear that we need to
• 05:07 love everyone.
• 05:08 Caleb: How do you achieve this compassion?
• 05:10 Ask and you will receive.
• 05:12 James 4:2 says, "You do not have because you do not ask."
• 05:16 Caleb: That that's a tough thing to do, especially for witnessing
• 05:20 to Jewish people.
• 05:21 I just have to say I love our people, but we are known to be
• 05:24 stubborn and stiff-necked, so you're not always gonna get the
• 05:27 reaction you want when you go tell a Jew about Yeshua, Jesus.
• 05:30 But if you react in anger, how are you gonna lead
• 05:33 them to the gospel?
• 05:34 You gotta react in love.
• 05:36 Joshua: You have been seeking your Messiah your entire life,
• 05:39 and for the generations of your family, but he has come and he
• 05:43 fulfilled the law and the prophecies.
• 05:45 He loves you.
• 05:46 He's waiting for you in a poem that he's prepared for you.
• 05:49 All you have to do is accept him.
• 05:52 Ryan: I got another Bible verse already.
• 05:54 Luke 15:4, "What man among you has a hundred sheep and loses
• 06:00 one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open field
• 06:03 and go after the lost one until he finds it?"
• 06:06 I have 20-something chickens.
• 06:10 And you lose a chicken, it's--you lose a chicken.
• 06:14 It's done. Like, okay.
• 06:15 I don't know how many pounds of chicken I eat a week, but.
• 06:21 Joshua: I don't know why this is so funny to me.
• 06:23 I lose a chicken. He's dead to me now.
• 06:26 I'll add another one in his place.
• 06:29 Ryan: We--they're so expendable to us, and like--
• 06:31 Dara: We need our chickens.
• 06:33 We love our chickens.
• 06:35 Joshua: There's a point to this, I know that.
• 06:37 Ryan: There's a point, but like, you got 99 sheep and you lose
• 06:41 one of them.
• 06:42 It's so easy for people to just say, "Okay, I lost one sheep.
• 06:45 I'll take the loss.
• 06:47 I'll move on in life."
• 06:48 But Jesus is saying that loss is really important.
• 06:51 We wanna bring that loss back because every sheep counts.
• 06:56 And it goes back to your enemies.
• 06:58 Even if that sheep is the most stubborn sheep in the herd--I
• 07:02 almost said flock.
• 07:04 The flock of sheep, but that one sheep, even though it might be
• 07:08 stubborn, bratty, kicking the other sheep, it still matters.
• 07:12 It still matters that we are the fisher of men and rescue
• 07:15 that sheep.
• 07:16 Caleb: It looks like we've cleared off these fishing lines.
• 07:19 Can we finally learn how to catch real fish?
• 07:22 Mike Ferland: That's a great question.
• 07:24 Joshua: Is it possible to catch a herd of seagulls since we
• 07:27 have a flock of sheep?
• 07:29 Mike Ferland: Ryan came closest.
• 07:31 Caleb: Galatians 2:19-21, "For through law I died to law, so
• 07:35 that I might live for God.
• 07:37 I have been crucified with Messiah; and it is no longer I
• 07:40 who live, but Messiah lives in me.
• 07:43 And the life I now live in the body, I live by trusting in
• 07:46 Ben-Elohim [the Son of God] who loved me and gave Himself
• 07:50 up for me.
• 07:51 I do not nullify the grace of God--for if righteousness comes
• 07:54 through Torah, then Messiah died for no reason!"
• 07:58 Caleb: You know, Ryan, I think it's important that when we're
• 08:01 talking about salvation to the Jewish people, that we really go
• 08:05 into the justification by faith versus by works because for
• 08:09 Jews, it's really important that we earn our salvation.
• 08:12 We're really big on works, on following the law and Torah, but
• 08:17 even when I see Jews come to faith and they join the
• 08:22 Messianic community, they still gravitate back toward
• 08:24 works of the law.
• 08:26 And Paul had the same difficulty in scripture with
• 08:29 the church of Galatia.
• 08:30 They had a group called the Judaizers in there.
• 08:33 These Judaizers, they were okay with Gentiles coming to faith in
• 08:37 Yeshua if they got circumcised.
• 08:39 That's kind of hard for a Gentile to suddenly get
• 08:42 circumcised when you're, like, 40 years old.
• 08:44 I mean, this wasn't a popular thing.
• 08:46 And Paul said, "Oh, there's a lot of false
• 08:48 teaching going on there.
• 08:49 He gave a very stern warning to them in scripture in Galatians
• 08:53 3, chapter 1 to 3.
• 08:54 He says, "O foolish Galatians, who cast a spell on you?
• 08:58 Before your eyes Yeshua the Messiah was clearly portrayed
• 09:01 as crucified.
• 09:03 I want to find out just one thing from you guys: did you
• 09:06 receive the Ruach [the Spirit] by deeds [by works] based on
• 09:11 Torah [the law] or by hearing based on trust?" by faith.
• 09:14 "Are you so foolish?
• 09:16 After being with the Spirit, will you now reach the goal in
• 09:19 the flesh?"
• 09:20 In Judaism, the law is the mitzvot.
• 09:23 And the mitzvot is very important to Jews.
• 09:26 We have all these different commandments, but I remember
• 09:30 Yeshua, he kind of summed it down to two very
• 09:34 specific commandments.
• 09:36 In one he said, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart,
• 09:39 soul, mind, and strength."
• 09:40 And two, "Love your neighbor as yourself.
• 09:42 Under these two, hang all the law and the prophets."
• 09:45 That's a whole lot easier because he fulfilled the law.
• 09:47 And Paul was warning the church in Galatians that if you try to
• 09:52 adhere to every point of the law, then it can put you under
• 09:55 the curse because there's no way you can fulfill all the law.
• 09:59 He says in Galatians 4:9-11, "But now you have come to know
• 10:03 God--or rather you have come to be known by God.
• 10:06 So how can you turn back again to those weak and
• 10:09 worthless principles?
• 10:10 Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again?
• 10:12 You observe the days and months and seasons and years.
• 10:15 [This is the shabbats, the new moons,
• 10:17 the mo'edim, the feasts]."
• 10:19 He says, "I fear for you, that perhaps I have labored
• 10:21 over you in vain!"
• 10:23 Putting so much stock into keeping all the commandments,
• 10:25 the laws and everything, he says, "This can mean to your
• 10:29 destruction, this can mean harm to you."
• 10:31 And I know elsewhere, he also mentioned not to judge people
• 10:35 who decide not to keep those feasts and festivals.
• 10:38 He says in Colossians 2:16, "Therefore do not let anyone
• 10:41 judge you by what you eat or drink or with regard to a
• 10:44 religious festival, a New Moon celebration, or Sabbath day."
• 10:48 I mean, this is good stuff.
• 10:49 I mean, it's fun to keep the feast of the Lord, to keep
• 10:52 Pesach and Shabbat and all that, but you don't get brownie points
• 10:56 of God if you don't keep them the way that people tell you to.
• 10:59 And he spoke again to the church of Galatia.
• 11:01 He said in chapter 3, verses 10 to 13, "For all who rely on the
• 11:06 deeds of Torah are under a curse--for the Scripture says,
• 11:10 'Cursed is everyone who does not keep doing.
• 11:12 Everything written in the scroll of the Torah.'
• 11:14 It is clear that no one is set right before God by Torah, for
• 11:19 'the righteous shall live by faith,' however, Torah is not
• 11:23 based on trust and faithfulness; on the contrary, 'the one who
• 11:26 does not do these things shall live by them.'
• 11:28 See, Messiah liberated us from Torah's curse, having become a
• 11:31 curse for us [for it is written], 'Cursed is everyone
• 11:35 who hangs on a tree.'"
• 11:37 So, we couldn't do it.
• 11:38 I'm not good enough to fulfill all the law, and we don't wanna
• 11:41 have temple sacrifices anymore.
• 11:43 We can't even do that stuff, you know, we can't burn cows and
• 11:45 chickens, like your chickens, if you do something bad.
• 11:48 So, we can't try to do it because Yeshua did it all
• 11:52 for us.
• 11:53 Caleb: The choice is clear.
• 11:54 I would rather live under the law of the Spirit of life in
• 11:57 Yeshua, Christ Jesus.
• 11:59 His grace will then be sufficient for you when you
• 12:01 mess up.
• 12:03 Ryan: Can you imagine, like, just what life would be like if
• 12:06 everyone loved?
• 12:08 Like honestly, like, it's so simple, like, the concept of
• 12:11 just following Jesus, but like, if everyone loved, there would
• 12:15 never be a war.
• 12:16 It's such a simple concept and it's hard--it is sometimes hard
• 12:18 to grasp because Jesus's love is almost hard to comprehend.
• 12:23 Israel: So, the more God's love we give away, the happier we
• 12:26 are ourselves.
• 12:27 Caleb: That's right, and that's how we catch the fish.
• 12:29 Except those are like the spiritual fish.
• 12:31 We don't seem to have any real--
• 12:33 did you catch any real fish?
• 12:34 Joshua: Oh, I think I got one!
• 12:36 Aha-ha! I got it!
• 12:38 Caleb: You got a fish?
• 12:40 Joshua: I got it. Mike Ferland: No, Josh.
• 12:42 Do you even have fishing line on there?
• 12:44 Joshua: What's fishing line?
• 12:45 I just did what you did.
• 12:46 Took the stick, you went hoo-ah, and then it came right there and
• 12:49 then you went, ka-cha, then you got a fish, and then I--
• 12:51 Caleb: There's not even a hook on there.
• 12:52 Mike Ferland: Yeah, you're missing some key elements here,
• 12:55 the hook, the line.
• 12:57 Joshua: I can't just, like, mimic what you
• 12:58 do and be successful?
• 13:00 Mike Ferland: No, there's some more to it.
• 13:02 Ryan: How embarrassing.
• 13:03 Joshua: I wanna go to lodge on Silver's then, I'm hungry.
• 13:05 Caleb: I am hungry for some seafood.
• 13:07 Israel: Let's try to get to shore.
• 13:09 Caleb: I'm starting this baby up.
• 13:10 Israel: Give it to a guy. Caleb: Yeah!
• 13:12 Joshua: That is by far my favorite--voice saying.
• 13:17 Caleb: Galatians 3:23-25, "Now before faith came, we were
• 13:21 guarded under Torah--bound together until the coming faith
• 13:24 would be revealed.
• 13:26 Therefore Torah became our guardian to lead us to Messiah,
• 13:29 so that we might be made right on trusting.
• 13:32 But now, now that faith has come, we are no longer
• 13:35 under a guardian."
• 13:37 Caleb: Wouldn't you like to stop blowing monthly
• 13:39 fees on pagan entertainment?
• 13:41 Joshua: Yeah.
• 13:42 Caleb: Well, how about spreading the gospel of Yeshua while
• 13:44 getting a bunch of cool stuff?
• 13:46 Joshua: Heck yeah.
• 13:47 Caleb: Then join the Bearded Bible Bonanza on Patreon where
• 13:50 you'll see the brothers continue their teachings with never
• 13:53 before aired content that pagans don't want you to see.
• 13:55 God bless their souls.
• 13:57 Joshua: Caleb, guys, chose the first event, kosher fishing.
• 14:00 I get the second event.
• 14:01 Me and Mike went out, we chose rhymes with "burkey bunt."
• 14:05 You get it.
• 14:09 Mike Ferland: Gentlemen, let's huddle up.
• 14:15 All right guys, so today we're going turkey hunting here in
• 14:18 Maine, but before we do it, we wanna make sure that we are
• 14:21 safe, but the turkey's not be safe.
• 14:24 So, I brought in a special guest who's gonna be our
• 14:28 expert hunter.
• 14:30 Mike Ferland Sr.: When's he getting here?
• 14:31 Mike Ferland: Yeah, that's you. Mike Ferland Sr.: Oh, me?
• 14:32 Mike Ferland: Yes, it's gonna be you.
• 14:34 This is my dad, Mike Ferland Sr.
• 14:35 He's gonna be giving us our safety briefing.
• 14:37 Whatever he says goes, unless you see me going like
• 14:40 this...and--.
• 14:42 Mike Ferland Sr.: I've been hunting since I was 5 years
• 14:43 old, I'm 72 now, and I've been in the woods
• 14:46 since I was 5 years old.
• 14:47 Growing up, my uncles were more like brothers to me.
• 14:50 My grandfather lived in the woods.
• 14:51 We were poor, so that's all we did.
• 14:53 We hunt and fish to get food, you know, it was a necessity.
• 14:57 Mike Ferland Sr.: All right, well, first thing, Bearded Bible
• 14:59 Brothers, welcome to Maine and your group here.
• 15:02 Good-looking group.
• 15:03 We got some guns and we got some ammunition.
• 15:06 So we're gonna have some fun, okay?
• 15:08 And if we get a turkey--.
• 15:09 Israel: That'll be even better.
• 15:11 Mike Ferland Sr.: I'll show you how to cook that up.
• 15:13 Always keep your gun pointed to the front, okay?
• 15:17 We don't want anybody hurt.
• 15:18 Joshua: Don't point it like this...
• 15:20 Mike Ferland Sr.: No, we don't want none of this Rambo stuff
• 15:23 coming through the woods, boom, boom.
• 15:25 You know, you have to understand.
• 15:26 Well, right now in God's country, this is what he
• 15:29 created, okay?
• 15:30 This is what he made for us and just have a good time.
• 15:33 Caleb: After I missed out on bagging my prized swine on our
• 15:36 hog hunt in Texas, I'm so jazzed about this turkey hunt.
• 15:39 I mean, I literally saw turkeys everywhere on the drive here,
• 15:42 even in Pastor Mike's front yard.
• 15:44 Apparently, it's illegal to do drive-by turkey shooting
• 15:47 in Maine.
• 15:48 Go figure.
• 15:50 Mike Ferland Sr.: Caleb, usually take about ten steps,
• 15:55 stop, and view, okay?
• 15:58 Joshua: Yeah, Caleb, that's that rule we never followed of
• 16:00 Shaul's, but she kept walking the whole time.
• 16:03 Maybe that's why we didn't find a hog.
• 16:05 Mike Ferland Sr.: This is gonna be a good place.
• 16:07 Okay, Caleb, what we're gonna do is we're gonna
• 16:09 set you in the log, okay?
• 16:11 Caleb: Okay.
• 16:12 Mike: Okay, next guy with a gun.
• 16:13 Joshua: Mike, did you want me to Uber Eats a turkey?
• 16:17 Mike Ferland: No.
• 16:18 Joshua: Oh, we got to actually kill one?
• 16:19 Mike Ferland: Well, if you want to eat.
• 16:21 Joshua: But I can get a turkey from Boston Market right now.
• 16:23 Mike Ferland: The rule is we shoot what we eat.
• 16:25 Mike Ferland Sr.: Uber it up, bub.
• 16:27 Joshua: That's what I was trying to do.
• 16:28 Ryan: Turkey pizza. Mike Ferland: No.
• 16:29 Mike Ferland Sr.: We can't have pizza?
• 16:31 Ryan: Turkey pizza.
• 16:32 Caleb: Chipmunk.
• 16:33 Mike Ferland: We're hunting turkeys.
• 16:35 Mike Ferland Sr.: Okay, I'm sorry.
• 16:36 Caleb: Can I shoot chipmunk?
• 16:37 Mike Ferland: No, we're hunting turkeys.
• 16:39 Caleb: I just saw chipmunk.
• 16:40 Mike Ferland: If it doesn't gobble, you can't shoot it.
• 16:42 Mike Ferland Sr.: Well, I'm getting a pizza after--
• 16:45 I'm telling you.
• 16:47 Caleb: Mike Senior, if I see a bull moose, can I shoot it?
• 16:51 Mike Ferland Sr.: No. Caleb: Why not?
• 16:52 Mike Ferland Sr.: Well, two things, okay?
• 16:54 It's against the law.
• 16:56 And if you shoot a bull moose with a 20 gauge with birdshot,
• 16:58 then it's gonna be a foot race back to the truck and
• 17:00 see who wins.
• 17:02 I don't run fast, so I'm gonna jump on either your back or
• 17:05 Joshua's back , okay?
• 17:06 'Cause I'm not too quick.
• 17:08 Caleb: So, we can't shoot bull moose?
• 17:09 Mike Ferland Sr.: No, but there's a possibility
• 17:11 of seeing them in here.
• 17:12 There's a lot of moose up in this country.
• 17:14 They're also bears.
• 17:15 Caleb: Can I shoot the bear?
• 17:17 Mike Ferland Sr.: No, not--again, they're
• 17:18 faster than a moose.
• 17:20 Joshua: Just you wait, Thomas.
• 17:21 Caleb: There's so many things I can't kill.
• 17:22 I want to kill something.
• 17:24 Mike Ferland Sr.: Well, let me go out and see if I can get you
• 17:26 a human sacrifice out here.
• 17:27 I think there's some hunters out there.
• 17:29 We can knock them out.
• 17:30 We'll put them--tie them to the tree, and we'll have target
• 17:32 practice with them.

• 17:53 Oh, what's your name? Oh, Fernicus.
• 17:55 You see a lot of gobble gobbles?
• 17:56 Oh, thank you.
• 17:57 I just got my haircut not too long ago.
• 17:59 Are you single?
• 18:01 Caleb: I thought it was difficult hunting for the
• 18:04 unkosher, the unclean, but the kosher, man, leading them to
• 18:09 Jesus is much more difficult.
• 18:11 Mike Ferland: Ooh-hoo-hoo, buddy, as a Gentile and as a
• 18:15 pastor, I've seen some different perspectives and heard some
• 18:17 different perspectives, and I'm sure you guys have heard it too.
• 18:20 There is this teaching out there in the Christian church that
• 18:24 they want to--basically say, "Replace the nation of Israel
• 18:30 with the Christian church."
• 18:32 Caleb: Oh, I've heard that one, buddy.
• 18:33 Mike Ferland: And that is not right and it's not kosher.
• 18:37 Caleb: Totally not kosher.
• 18:39 Mike Ferland: You see, I like to look at it and think of it from
• 18:42 the biblical perspective, which is, you all are
• 18:47 God's chosen nation.
• 18:49 You have that first covenant.
• 18:52 But we as Gentiles are grafted in to the family through Jesus
• 18:58 and the second covenant.
• 19:01 Caleb: Part of the commonwealth of Israel now.
• 19:02 Mike Ferland: Exactly.
• 19:04 So, we have basically been brought into the family
• 19:11 through Christ.
• 19:13 That's the better teaching.
• 19:14 We haven't replaced you.
• 19:17 We haven't taken over your spot.
• 19:20 Caleb: The family just got bigger.
• 19:21 Mike Ferland: The fa--exactly. The family--.
• 19:22 Israel: Kind of just like found our big brother, didn't we?
• 19:25 The big brother found us.
• 19:27 Now we realized, hey, guess what?
• 19:28 We're family. It's pretty awesome.
• 19:31 Mike Ferland: You're our southern cousins, brothers.
• 19:36 Joshua: I don't know what you're talking about.
• 19:38 I'm not Southern.
• 19:40 I was born and raised in Maine.
• 19:43 Brooklin, Maine.
• 19:45 Ryan: I'm not buying it, Josh.
• 19:47 Joshua: Why do you always make fun of me in front of
• 19:49 the group, Ryan?
• 19:50 I thought we were supposed to be brothers.
• 19:52 Mike Ferland Sr.: Listen, you guys be good
• 19:54 or we turn them right around and going home.
• 19:55 Ryan: No, sir, please.
• 19:57 Caleb: I want my turkey. Mike Ferland Sr.: Be good now.
• 19:59 Ryan: Okay, we'll be good.
• 20:04 Caleb: Romans 2:28-29, "For he is not a Jew who is one
• 20:09 outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the
• 20:13 flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision
• 20:18 is that of the heart.
• 20:19 In the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from
• 20:23 men but from God."
• 20:29 Joshua: The law was circumcision, something that you
• 20:32 outwardly did to show that you were clean and
• 20:34 that you were different.
• 20:36 You know, God says that circumcision now because of
• 20:38 Yeshua is something of the heart.
• 20:41 It's an inward action.
• 20:43 And I think religion has spoiled so much over the generations
• 20:48 from back in the Pharisees times as they walked haughtily with
• 20:51 their chest out and their shoulders back trying to prove
• 20:55 their holiness by fulfilling the law by their actions.
• 20:58 And yet in their heart, they were wicked and they were vile
• 21:01 because that's what Yeshua said to them, "I see your heart.
• 21:04 It's wicked."
• 21:06 And today, it's so easy to get caught up in the same concept,
• 21:10 you know, I'm gonna earn my holiness through
• 21:12 attendance at church.
• 21:14 I'm gonna earn it through, you know, posting #JesusSaves on
• 21:17 my Instagram.
• 21:19 All of this idea that we earn something.
• 21:23 I'm better because I'm Jewish.
• 21:25 I'm better because I'm a Christian.
• 21:26 I'm better because I'm this, I'm better because I'm that.
• 21:29 Just being born warrants going to hell, and that the only way
• 21:32 out of that is a free gift that not a single person can do
• 21:35 anything more than another to earn.
• 21:38 I believe the grace that would be birthed out of that
• 21:42 for others.
• 21:44 When we saw others in need instead of looking down at them,
• 21:46 when we saw there's an addiction instead of judging them, when we
• 21:49 saw others who were so obstinate against our belief system
• 21:53 because they've been hurt so bad that all they can communicate
• 21:56 this hurt with is hate, that we would be able to exhibit love
• 22:01 that's life-changing, love of the Father that would in turn
• 22:08 dispel all that pain and hurt inside of them.
• 22:12 I think that's what would make a difference.
• 22:14 Ryan: Bull moose!
• 22:17 Joshua: Are you guys playing cards?
• 22:20 Caleb: Totally not playing cards.
• 22:23 Joshua: Unbelievable.
• 22:24 Mike Ferland Sr.: We're serious hunters here.
• 22:26 Joshua: He looks at the heart.
• 22:27 He looks at the heart.
• 22:29 It's only the heart. We're all the same.

• 24:14 Mike Ferland: Yeah, yes.

• 24:18 Caleb: Galatians 4:3-7, "But even so we, when we were
• 24:22 children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.
• 24:25 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth
• 24:28 His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those
• 24:32 who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption
• 24:35 as sons.
• 24:36 And because you're sons, God has sent forth the spirit of His
• 24:39 Son into your hearts, crying out, 'Abba, Father!'
• 24:43 Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son,
• 24:46 then an heir of God through Christ."
• 24:50 Caleb: I'm totally acting.
• 24:51 I'm acting like I'm not freaked out here.
• 24:59 Mike Ferland: You know, it was such an amazing experience
• 25:00 getting to do that, but also getting to do that with my dad.
• 25:03 Caleb: Your dad's awesome.
• 25:04 Mike Ferland: You know, he is awesome and he's taught
• 25:06 me so many things.
• 25:07 I'm blessed to have my dad in my life and you guys being in
• 25:13 Israel on October 7 and the shows that you were doing and
• 25:17 the clips that you were showing is what got my dad to start his
• 25:22 prayer life.
• 25:24 Joshua: Really?
• 25:25 Mike: And it was Thanksgiving.
• 25:26 I didn't know this, but it was at Thanksgiving dinner, somebody
• 25:29 was not feeling well and my dad's like, "Oh yeah, I've been
• 25:33 praying for you," and I just kinda--I was beside him and I
• 25:37 looked and he's like, "Yeah."
• 25:38 He's like, "Ever since," he said, "you know, Josh and Caleb
• 25:42 were in Israel and all the stuff they're going for."
• 25:44 He said, "you know, they asked for prayers."
• 25:46 He said, "And I just started praying and I've been praying
• 25:48 every day since."
• 25:49 Joshua A.: Wow. Mike Ferland: So.
• 25:51 Caleb: You--we never know how many people we touch.
• 25:53 And it's not us, it's the Holy Spirit working through us.
• 25:56 Man, I'm blown away.
• 25:59 Israel: That's pretty awesome to know that we are sons of the
• 26:01 King of kings and Lord of lords, and he lives in us with the
• 26:04 power of his Holy Spirit, and we can go out and share the
• 26:07 good news.
• 26:08 Caleb: To the Jew first.
• 26:09 Israel: To the Jew first and then the Gentile.
• 26:11 Caleb: That's right.
• 26:12 God hasn't abandoned his love or his heart to the Jewish people.
• 26:15 So Josh, I mean, you live in Israel.
• 26:17 You've seen how our people react to the gospel.
• 26:21 From the last time I went to Israel, I saw a shift, a change
• 26:26 to them being more open than ever to Christians, to us.
• 26:30 Joshua A.: It's so normal.
• 26:31 Like, yeah, they're one of those people from that other sect
• 26:34 of Judaism.
• 26:35 It's changed so, so, so, so much where even most Jewish people in
• 26:39 Israel in the late '90s or early 2000s would be like,
• 26:43 "No, he's not Jewish."
• 26:44 They wouldn't even his recognize Jewishness.
• 26:46 And now I've seen them.
• 26:47 I've seen friends of mine, like, talk to, like, other--like my
• 26:49 religious orthodox friends of mine tell like a Christian,
• 26:52 like, "You know Jesus was Jewish."
• 26:54 Like, it's like a cool thing, even though they don't believe
• 26:55 as a Savior, it's a big step.
• 26:58 In 2000 years, that's a big step, you know, and it's
• 27:00 happening fast, it's happening fast.
• 27:02 Caleb: So fast. Joshua A: Yeah.
