Caption transcript for Age of Terror Continued: “Truth be Told” with Tommy Ice (10/12)

• 00:27 SHALOM, HELLO AGAIN.
• 00:28 BACK TO OUR SERIES ON THE AGE OF >>TERROR, ISLAM AND THE COMING TRIBULATION.
• 00:34 IN SOME WAYS I'M SORRY WE HAD TO MAKE THIS SERIES, IT'S NOT THE >>HAPPIEST NEWS,
• 00:38 BUT IN THE MINISTRY WE CHRONICLE >>THE TIMES, WHAT'S GOING ON
• 00:42 AND UNFORTUNATELY THAT SEEMS TO BE WHAT'S GOING ON.
• 00:45 OUR GUEST ON THE PROGRAM LATER >>WILL BE TOMMY ICE,
• 00:48 ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS, A BRILLIANT THEOLOGIAN.
• 00:50 SO NOW TO LOCATION IN THE HOLY LAND.
• 00:53 WELL, ISRAEL HAS A SPLENDID NEW AIRPORT AND I THOUGHT WE'D FILM HERE BECAUSE,
• 00:58 I DON'T KNOW, IF YOU LIVE TO BE >>100 YEARS OLD
• 01:01 YOU PROBABLY WON'T SEE THIS AIRPORT ON CNN
• 01:04 OR ANY OF OUR NETWORKS FOR THAT MATTER.
• 01:06 THEY JUST DON'T SHOW THE THINGS THAT ISRAEL REALLY ACCOMPLISHES.
• 01:10 COMPARE THIS MAGNIFICENT >>TERMINAL WITH THE DUSTY STREETS
• 01:16 AND THE RIOTING SUCH AS IT IS >>THAT THEY SHOW ON THE NETWORKS
• 01:20 AND YOU SEE WHAT AN UNBALANCED NEWS COVERAGE THIS COUNTRY GETS.
• 01:23 FRANKLY, I'VE BEEN AROUND THE WORLD AND I'VE NOT SEEN AN AIRPORT THE EQUAL OF THIS.
• 01:28 THIS ONE'S BRAND NEW, OF COURSE, >>BUT IT'S BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED AND VERY BUSY,
• 01:33 FLIGHTS TO MOST OF THE CAPITALS >>OF THE WORLD FROM HERE,
• 01:37 NOT THE ARAB CAPITALS, OF COURSE, BUT JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE ELSE.
• 01:42 YOU TRANSFER WHEN YOU FLY TO ARAB CAPITALS AND SO ON.
• 01:45 BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST THAT THE PEOPLE HERE HAVE ACCOMPLISHES SO MUCH.
• 01:52 THIS IS A MAGNIFICENT PHYSICAL PLANT.
• 01:54 THIS IS SOMETHING THAT COMMENDS >>A PEOPLE.
• 01:57 THERE'S NOTHING LIKE IT IN THE ARAB WORLD AND I'VE SEEN SOME OF >>THEIR AIRPORTS
• 02:01 AND THEY ARE TO BE COMMENDED FOR >>ACCOMPLISHING THIS.
• 02:07 I HAVE A NEWSLETTER HERE, A COMPUTER PAGE, REALLY,
• 02:11 THE OMEGA LETTER, DAILY INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING,
• 02:15 JUST HAD ISSUE WITH A LOT OF POINTS TO MAKE.
• 02:19 AMERICA'S SECOND PRESIDENT, JOHN ADAMS, SAID OF THE JEWS,
• 02:23 THE JEWS HAVE DONE MORE TO CIVILIZE MEN THAN ANY OTHER NATION.
• 02:28 THEY ARE THE MOST GLORIOUS NATION THAT EVER INHABITED THE EARTH.
• 02:32 THE ROMANS AND THE EMPIRE WERE >>BUT A BAUBLE IN COMPARISON TO THE JEWS.
• 02:37 THEY HAVE GIVEN RELIGION TO 3/4 >>OF THE GLOBE
• 02:40 AND HAVE INFLUENCED THE AFFAIRS >>OF MANKIND MORE
• 02:43 AND MORE HAPPILY THAN ANY OTHER >>NATION ANCIENT OR MODERN.
• 02:49 ALMOST MUST WANT TO SAY, WELL HE'S OVERDOING IT.
• 02:51 BUT, I THINK HE KNEW A FEW >>THINGS AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE >>UNITED STATES,
• 02:55 THE SECOND PRESIDENT AFTER GEORGE WASHINGTON.
• 02:58 ANOTHER STATISTIC FROM 1901-2001 THE WORLD'S 6.5 BILLION PEOPLE
• 03:06 COMPETED FOR THE SCARCE 844 NOBEL PRIZES THAT HAVE BEEN AWARDED.
• 03:12 AMONG THOSE 6.5 BILLION ARE NEARLY 1.3 BILLION MUSLIMS,
• 03:18 ROUGHLY 20% OF THE GLOBAL POPULATION.
• 03:20 OF THOSE1.3 BILLION MUSLIMS, 8 HAVE BEEN SINGLED OUT TO RECEIVE THE NOBEL PRIZE,
• 03:29 7 IF YOU CONSIDER THAT 1 OF THEM >>WAS A POLITICALLY MOTIVATED PEACE PRIZE
• 03:34 GIVEN THE UN-REPENTANT TERRORIST, YASSER ARAFAT.
• 03:37 MUSLIMS ACCOUNT FOR LESS THAN 1% >>OF THE TOTAL NOBEL PRIZES >>AWARDED IN THE LAST 100 YEARS.
• 03:45 IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 20TH >>CENTURY, THE NAZIS EXTERMINATED >>SOME 6 MILLION JEWS,
• 03:51 MORE THAN HALF THE WORLD'S JEWISH POPULATION.
• 03:53 THERE ARE TODAY ABOUT 14 MILLION >>JEWS LEFT.
• 03:56 EVEN WITH HALF THEIR NUMBER EXTERMINATED AT THE CENTURY'S MIDPOINT,
• 04:01 159 OF THE REMAINING 836 NOBEL >>PRIZES WERE AWARDED TO JEWS
• 04:09 OR ROUGHLY 18.8% OF ALL THE NOBEL PRIZES AWARDED IN NOBEL'S HISTORY.
• 04:16 YOU KNOW, OUR LEVITT LETTER EVERY MONTH,
• 04:17 AND BY THE WAY YOU CAN GET A >>LEVITT LETTER JUST BY SENDING US >>YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS,
• 04:21 THERE'S NO CHARGE, BUT WE CHRONICLE WHAT GOES ON HERE.
• 04:24 THEY'RE WORKING ON CURES NOW FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND PARKINSON'S DISEASE.
• 04:29 THEY ARE WORKING ON CANCER CURES.
• 04:31 THEY'VE PROVIDED SO MANY AMERICAN MEDICINES, THEY DON'T WANT CREDIT.
• 04:35 THEY DON'T WANT TO BE NOTICED, >>THANK YOU, THEY'D RATHER BE LEFT ALONE.
• 04:38 THEY'RE NOT TRYING TO PLEASE THE >>GENTILES OR WIN AWARDS
• 04:41 EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE GIVEN THE AWARDS.
• 04:43 SO MANY MEDICINES, YOU KNOW ARE CREATED HERE
• 04:48 THAT ONE TIME WHEN THE AIRLINE >>LOST MY BAG FOR A DAY OR TWO,
• 04:53 I HAD HEART PILLS IN THERE AND A >>CARDIOLOGIST ON THE TOUR
• 04:55 OFFERED TO GO TO AN ISRAELI PHARMACY WITH ME AND TRY TO REPLACE THE DRUGS
• 05:01 THAT I HAD FROM MY OWN DRUG STORE IN DALLAS WITH ISRAELI EQUIVALENTS.
• 05:05 WE WENT INTO A PHARMACY AND WE >>SPOKE TO THE PHARMACIST AND I >>TOLD HIM THE NAMES OF THE DRUGS
• 05:12 AND HE SAID, OK IT'S NO PROBLEM, IT'S MOSTLY ISRAELI MEDICINES.
• 05:18 WHO KNEW?
• 05:19 I ALWAYS TELL THE STORY OF >>BUYING A BIG MASON JAR FULL OF >>ERYTHROMYCIN IN JERUSALEM
• 05:25 FOR $2.50 WHERE BACK HOME IT'S >>DOLLARS PER PILL.
• 05:29 YOU KNOW, CONTAC, IF YOU TAKE THAT, IS AN ISRAELI MEDICINE.
• 05:34 I COULD NAME THEM ALL DAY.
• 05:35 BUT, NEVER MIND, THEY DO NOT WANT YOU TO NAME THEM,
• 05:37 THEY DO NOT WANT THE CREDIT, THEY JUST WANT PEACE.
• 05:39 PROBABLY THEY DON'T EVEN WANT >>YOU TO SEE THEIR AIRPORT UNLESS YOU COME HERE, BUT HERE IT IS.
• 05:46 I'M GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU.
• 05:48 IT IS A WONDERFUL ACHIEVEMENT.
• 05:50 LOOKING FURTHER ON IN THIS OMEGA LETTER,
• 05:54 IT SAYS HISTORICALLY WHEREVER THE JEWS WERE WELCOMED, THAT >>NATION FLOURISHED AND PROSPERED.
• 06:02 WHERE THE JEW WAS PERSECUTED, THOSE NATIONS FLOUNDERED.
• 06:06 IT IS MORE THAN JUST COINCIDENCE;
• 06:07 IT IS AN IDENTIFIABLE HISTORICAL >>PATTERN THAT HAS CONTINUED WITHOUT DEVIATION
• 06:13 SINCE THE DAYS OF THE BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY.
• 06:16 HE GOES ON TO PRESENT UMPTEEN EXAMPLES OF THAT.
• 06:20 HE SAYS ALTHOUGH AMERICA CONTINUES TO BE ISRAEL'S PRINCIPAL PROTECTOR
• 06:24 AND CONTINUES TO ENJOY THE >>CONCOMITANT BLESSINGS THAT COME >>WITH IT,
• 06:29 AMERICA'S GOOD FORTUNES BEGAN TO WANE
• 06:31 ABOUT THE SAME TIME THE WHITE HOUSE FORCED ISRAEL INTO THE OSLO AGREEMENT.
• 06:37 THE LAND FOR PEACE FORMULA CALLED FOR ISRAEL
• 06:39 TO GIVE UP SOME OF THE LAND OF PROMISE IN EXCHANGE FOR PEACE.
• 06:42 IN OTHER WORDS, IT WAS A FORM OF BLACKMAIL WHOSE TERMS WERE DRAWN >>UP IN WASHINGTON
• 06:47 AND FORCED UPON ISRAEL FOR THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF UNDOING WHAT >>GOD HAD DONE,
• 06:53 INCLUDING DIVIDING JERUSALEM AND TAKING PART OF IT FROM THE JEWS.
• 06:56 FORTUNATELY, THAT DID NOT HAPPEN.
• 06:58 THE OSLO PEACE PROCESS WENT NOWHERE.
• 07:01 IF YOU'D HAVE GOTTEN THE >>LEVITT LETTER ON THE FIRST DAY >>OF THE OSLO PROCESS,
• 07:06 YOU WOULD HAVE READ THAT IT WAS GOING NOWHERE.
• 07:10 WE PREDICTED THAT.
• 07:10 IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE ANY SORT >>OF BARGAIN AT LEAST WITH THE PALESTINIAN REGIME,
• 07:15 WHICH PERHAPS WILL BE CHANGED AT >>THIS TIME OF YASSER ARAFAT'S DEMISE.
• 07:20 WE'RE NOT SURE, BUT SUCH A THING AS LAND FOR PEACE HAS NEVER BEEN DONE IN THIS WORLD BY ANY NATION
• 07:29 AND THIS IS ONE OF THE VERY SMALLEST NATIONS.
• 07:31 THIS WHOLE NATION IS THE SIZE OF >>NEW JERSEY.
• 07:33 I DOUBT THAT NEW JERSEY HAS AN AIRPORT TO COMPARE WITH THIS ONE.
• 07:37 IN FACT, I KNOW THEY DON'T. I'VE FLOWN INTO NEWARK, ATLANTIC CITY,
• 07:40 OTHERS IN NEW JERSEY AND THERE'S >>NOTHING LIKE IT.
• 07:44 WHAT AM I SAYING? I'M NOT BRAGGING.
• 07:45 I'M JUST TRYING TO GIVE THE >>BALANCING SIDE TO A COUNTRY THAT >>IS CONSTANTLY MALIGNED,
• 07:51 THAT HAS ENDLESS REPORTS THAT FAVORS THE PALESTINIAN SIDE
• 07:56 AND WHY DOES IT FAVOR THE PALESTINIAN SIDE?
• 07:58 WELL, BECAUSE THE MAJOR NETWORKS >>ARE NOT REALLY ALLOWED TO >>OPERATE AGAINST THE PALESTINIANS
• 08:07 THEY WILL BE IN REAL TROUBLE >>WITH THEM, I MEAN REAL TROUBLE.
• 08:11 IF THEY GO TO RAMALLAH, WHERE ARAFAT'S HEADQUARTER IS
• 08:15 AND THEY WANT TO FILM, THEY HAD >>BETTER FILM THE RIGHT THINGS
• 08:18 AND SAY THE RIGHT THINGS OR THERE'LL BE RECRIMINATIONS.
• 08:21 AS TO FILMING IN ISRAEL, IT'S A PERFECTLY FREE COUNTRY LIKE THE >>UNITED STATES
• 08:26 AND THEY'RE FREE TO FILM WHAT THEY LIKE AND SAY WHAT THEY LIKE.
• 08:29 SO, AS WE'RE FREE TO DO THAT, WE THOUGHT WE'D SHOW YOU THE AIRPORT.
• 08:33 I'M VERY PROUD OF IT AND I'M VERY HAPPY TO SHOW IT TO YOU.

• 09:35 AND SHOWS YOU THE PROPHECIES THAT HAVEN'T BEEN FULFILLED
• 09:38 AND THE PLACES WHERE JESUS IS GOING TO COME BACK
• 09:40 AND REALLY MOMENTOUS THROUGH OUR LIVES.
• 09:41 CALL OR WRITE FOR INFORMATION ON ZOLA'S NEXT TOUR TO THE HOLY LAND.
• 09:52 PSALM 128 IS ALL ABOUT OLIVE TREES IN A WAY.
• 09:56 IT SAYS BLESSED IS EVERYONE THAT FEARETH THE LORD,
• 09:58 THAT WALKETH IN HIS WAYS FOR THOU SHALT EAT THE LABOR OF THINE HANDS.
• 10:03 HAPPY SHALL THOU BE AND IT SHALL BE WELL WITH THEE.
• 10:05 THY WIFE SHALL BE AS A FRUITFUL >> VINE BY THE SIDES OF THINE HOUSE
• 10:10 THY CHILDREN LIKE OLIVE PLANTS >> ROUND ABOUT THY TABLE.
• 10:13 BEHOLD THAT THUS SHALL THE MEN >> BE BLESSED THAT FEARETH THE LORD.
• 10:20 THE LORD SHALL BLESS THEE OUT OF ZION
• 10:22 AND THOU SHALL SEE THE GOOD OF JERUSALEM ALL THE DAYS OF THY >> LIFE.
• 10:25 YE, THOU SHALT SEE THY >> CHILDREN'S CHILDREN AND PEACE >> UPON ISRAEL.
• 10:31 IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PSALM, THAT'S THE WHOLE THING.
• 10:33 YOU KNOW, THE ISRAELIS, WE'VE SHOWN YOU THEIR BEAUTIFUL >>BUILDINGS, HIGHWAYS, THEATERS.
• 10:40 THEY HAVE SATELLITES.
• 10:42 THEY ARE PERFECTING DRUGS FOR THE WORLD.
• 10:44 THEY ARE PERFECTING COMPUTERS FOR THE WORLD,
• 10:45 BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, THEY HAVE OLIVE TREES, TOO AND ALWAYS HAVE HAD.
• 10:47 WE'VE BEEN LISTENING FOR 30 >>YEARS TO STORIES OF PALESTINIANS TRYING TO PICK OLIVE AND THEY DO
• 10:56 AND THEN AN ISRAELI BULLDOZER COMES ALONG MAKING A ROAD, DAMAGES AN OLIVE TREE,
• 11:00 CNN HAS IT ON ALL DAY LONG AND YOU KNOW WHAT, IT GOES THE OTHER >>WAY, TOO.
• 11:06 ISRAELIS HAVE OLIVE TREES, THEY >>GET DAMAGED BY PALESTINIANS.
• 11:09 PALESTINIANS SET WHOLE FOREST FIRES IN ISRAEL JUST TO BE ORNERY.
• 11:13 BUT THIS IS AN OLIVE GROVE THAT >>LIES BETWEEN JERUSALEM AND TEL AVIV
• 11:18 AND AT THIS POINT IN THE YEAR, >>THEY HAVE ALMOST A FAMILY CEREMONY
• 11:24 WHERE THE CHILDREN SHAKE THE >>TREES OR BEAT THEM OR WHATEVER,
• 11:27 THE OLIVES FALL ON THE GROUND, >>THEY ARE PICKED UP IN SORT OF PLASTIC TARPS OR BAGS
• 11:36 AND BROUGHT TO A COLLECTION POINT AND THROWN IN THERE
• 11:39 AND FROM THERE, OF COURSE, THEY MAY BE EATEN OR PRESSED INTO OLIVE OIL
• 11:43 AND IT GOES ON AS A STEADY >>ACTIVITY OUT IN THE COUNTRY AND >>WE WANTED TO SHOW YOU THIS,
• 11:49 AS WELL AS THE BUILDINGS AND THE FACTORIES AND ALL THE REST OF IT
• 11:52 AS PART OF DEMONSTRATING AN ISRAEL YOU WOULD NEVER SEE IF YOU WATCH CNN FOR 100 YEARS.
• 11:59 IN THE CHAPTER, EZEKIEL 36,
• 12:03 IS ABOUT A SITUATION VERY SIMILAR TO OUR OWN TIME.
• 12:07 IT ALMOST SEEMS TO BE ABOUT THE >>DIFFICULTIES IN THE WEST BANK
• 12:10 AND GAZA, PAGANS HEATHEN IN THE >>LAND AND WHATEVER,
• 12:16 IT'S ADDRESSED IN 36:1 TO THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL.
• 12:30 AND THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL, >>OF COURSE, IS THE CENTER SPINE >>OF THE COUNTRY,
• 12:35 WHICH RUNS DIRECTLY THROUGH THE >>WEST BANK, SAMARIA.
• 12:54 THEREFORE, YE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL, HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD GOD
• 12:57 AND HE PROPHESIES TO THE MOUNTAINS AND ENDS UP SAYING IN VERSE 8
• 13:01 BUT, YE, OH MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL SHALL SHOOT FORTH YOUR BRANCHES
• 13:04 AND YIELD YOUR FRUITS TO MY >> PEOPLE OF ISRAEL FOR THEY ARE >> AT HAND TO COME
• 13:11 AND THE STORY OF THE WHOLE >>CHAPTER WITHOUT READING IT ALL
• 13:14 AND I REALLY RECOMMEND IT TO YOU,
• 13:16 IT COMES RIGHT BEFORE THE VISION >>OF THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES
• 13:19 AND THUS IT PLACES IT IN THE END TIMES APPROXIMATELY WHERE WE ARE
• 13:23 AND IT TALKS ABOUT THE SINS OF >>ISRAEL, THE HEATHEN THAT COME INTO THE LAND
• 13:30 AND THE RESTORATION OF ISRAEL IN THE END.
• 13:33 THE PAST SINS OF ISRAEL HER FUTURE RESTORATION AND CONVERSION
• 13:37 ARE COVERED IN THIS ONE CHAPTER.
• 13:40 IT GOES ALONG AND TALKS ABOUT
• 13:50 IN OTHER WORDS AT TIMES WHEN ISRAEL WAS IN UNBELIEF
• 13:54 AND BOASTED STILL TO THE HEATHEN >>THEY WERE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE,
• 13:59 THEY PROFANED THE NAME OF THE LORD.
• 14:02 BUT, IN THE END HE SAYS,
• 14:03 I WILL SAVE YOU FROM ALL YOUR UNCLEANNESS, IN VERSE 29
• 14:05 I WILL CALL FOR THE CORN AND >> INCREASE IT AND LAY NO FAMINE >> UPON YOU
• 14:09 AND I WILL MULTIPLY THE FRUIT OF THE TREE AND THE INCREASE OF >> THE FIELD
• 14:12 THAT YE SHALL RECEIVE NO MORE >> REPROACH OF FAMINE AMONG THE HEATHEN.
• 14:18 AND AT THE END HE SAYS, AS THE HOLY FLOCK, THAT IS VERSE 38,
• 14:23 AS THE FLOCK OF ISRAEL IN HER >>SOLEMN FEASTS,
• 14:26 SO SHALL THE WASTE CITIES BE FILLED WITH FLOCKS OF MEN
• 14:29 AND THEY SHALL KNOW THAT I AM >> THE LORD.
• 14:31 AND EZEKIEL'S VERY NEXT VISION >>IS THAT VALLEY OF DRY BONES MEANING
• 14:35 THE JEWISH PEOPLE OUT IN THE DIASPORA WHO ARE BROUGHT TO ISRAEL AND COME TO LIFE
• 14:41 AND BECOME SPIRITUAL AND FINALLY RECEIVE THE KING
• 14:45 WHO SETS UP HIS THOUSAND YEAR KINGDOM HERE IN ISRAEL.
• 15:00 WELL, IT WAS FUN TO LOOK AT HOW THE OLIVES, I NEVER KNEW THAT.
• 15:04 I THOUGHT YOU GOT OLIVE IN A JAR >>AT THE SUPER MARKET.
• 15:08 I DIDN'T KNOW PEOPLE SHOOK TREES >>AND ALL THE REST OF IT,
• 15:11 BUT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW FROM WATCHING OUR TV OR ANYTHING.
• 15:14 THEY DON'T REPORT ON WHAT THE ISRAELIS ARE DOING.
• 15:16 THEY MAY REPORT ON AN ISRAELI TRUCK BUMPING A PALESTINIAN OLIVE TREE,
• 15:21 THAT'S ABOUT THE EXTENT OF IT.
• 15:23 I WAS GLAD TO SHOW YOU THE NEW >>AIRPORT,
• 15:25 BUT, TOMMY THAT BRINGS UP A POINT.
• 15:27 TOMMY ICE IS MY GUEST.
• 15:28 HE'S AN EXPERT ESPECIALLY IN >>ANTI-SEMITISM AND RESTORATION OF >>THE JEWS TO ISRAEL.
• 15:35 YOU'VE WRITTEN A NEW BOOK ON THIS.
• 15:37 HE'S EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE >>PRE-TRIBULATION COUNCILS,
• 15:42 RESEARCH CENTER, >>RESEARCH CENTER, OK.
• 15:44 YOU KNOW, THOSE NAMES GET SO FANCY.
• 15:47 I KNOW.
• 15:47 TOMMY, WHY DOES THE WORLD IGNORE >>THE POSITIVES IN ISRAEL?
• 15:53 WHY IS THIS ANTI-SEMITISM COMING >>UP A COUPLE OF GENERATIONS AFTER THE HOLOCAUST?
• 15:59 WHY IS ALL THAT GOING ON?
• 16:00 I KNOW, IT'S JUST COMPLETELY IRRATIONAL.
• 16:02 ALL RACISM IS WRONG.
• 16:05 BUT I BELIEVE ANTI-SEMITISM IS >>SUPERNATURALLY INSPIRED,
• 16:09 NOT BY GOD, BUT BY SATAN.
• 16:11 IN FACT, THE BIBLE INDICATES THAT IN REVELATION CHAPTER 12
• 16:14 WITH THAT WHOLE CHAPTER TALKING >>ABOUT THE WOMAN FLEEING INTO THE WILDERNESS,
• 16:18 WHICH REFERS TO ISRAEL, AND HOW SATAN, THE DRAGON
• 16:21 IS CAST DOWN, OUT AND HE GOES AFTER HER AFTER 3 1/2 YEARS INTO THE TRIBULATION
• 16:26 AND THE LAST 3 1/2 YEARS THE WHOLE FOCUS OF THAT PERIOD IS ATTACKING ISRAEL,
• 16:31 WHICH CULMINATES IN THE BATTLE >>OF ARMAGEDDON.
• 16:33 WE COULDN'T GET THEM DURING THE BATTLE OF GOG AND MAGOG WHERE WE >>BROUGHT A REGIONAL FORCE IN,
• 16:37 WE'RE GOING TO BRING ALL THE ARMIES OF THE WORLD DOWN
• 16:41 AND WE'RE REALLY TO GET THEM THIS TIME.
• 16:43 IN FACT, THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS IN MATTHEW 24,
• 16:45 IF GOD DIDN'T INTERVENE, NO FLESH WOULD BE SAVED, THE JEWS WOULD BE WIPED OUT.
• 16:51 I TEACH THIS.
• 16:51 THIS IS MY BREAD AND BUTTER IN THE CHURCHES AND CHURCHES ARE SO >>MISINFORMED ON PROPHECY,
• 16:58 IT COMES AS BIG NEWS.
• 16:58 WELL, SO IT IS SATANICALLY >>INSPIRED AND IT'S KIND OF LIKE >>ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER,
• 17:04 WHO'S THE GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA >>MADE ALL THOSE MOVIES OF HIM BEATING UP THE BAD GUYS,
• 17:08 YOU KNOW, NO ONE COULD EVER GET RID OF ARNOLD, HE'S TOO TOUGH.
• 17:12 SO, WHAT DO THEY DO?
• 17:13 THEY GO AFTER HIS WIFE AND KIDS, >>RIGHT.
• 17:15 IT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU HAVE IN REVELATION 12,
• 17:17 MICHAEL AND THE ARCHANGELS CAST SATAN AND HIS DEMONS OUT OF HEAVEN,
• 17:21 THEY'RE CAST DOWN TO THE EARTH >>AND IT SAYS HE ATTACKS THE WOMAN.
• 17:24 THEY ATTACK GOD'S PEOPLE, WHICH IN THE CONTEXT ARE THE JEWISH BELIEVERS.
• 17:30 THEY CAN'T BEAT GOD LIKE THEY CAN'T BEAT SCHWARZENEGGER
• 17:35 BUT THEY CAN GO AFTER GOD'S CHILDREN.
• 17:37 THAT'S RIGHT AND THAT'S WHAT HE >>DOES AND SINCE HE,
• 17:41 ESPECIALLY IN THE SECOND HALF OF >>THE TRIBULATION,
• 17:43 DEVELOPS A GLOBAL COMMUNITY THAT >>HE IS CHARGE OF,
• 17:48 IT CULMINATES IN HIM BRINGING >>ALL THE ARMIES IN THE WORLD TO >>DO THIS.
• 17:54 BY THIS TIME, THOUGH, ISRAEL >>BECOMES CONVERTED, THE REMNANT,
• 17:58 THE 1/3 REMNANT BECOMES CONVERTED TO JESUS, THE MESSIAH
• 18:01 IN FACT THE SECOND COMING IS A >>RESCUE EVENT, ZOLA.
• 18:05 HE PICKS THEM UP AT PETRA AND HE TO THE MT. OF OLIVES.
• 18:10 THAT'S CORRECT.
• 18:10 HE'S COMING TO PETRA WITH BLOOD >>ON HIS GARMENTS AND THEN HE >>COMES BACK TO THE MT. OF OLIVES.
• 18:14 BUT, IT'S THE PROVOCATION BEHIND >>THE SECOND COMING,
• 18:19 WAS IT, OH GOD SAYS I'M JUST PUTTING THIS ON MY CALENDAR.
• 18:22 THIS IS THE DAY I'M GOING TO COME BACK?
• 18:24 ALTHOUGH THAT IS TRUE, BUT IT >>SAYS THAT HE'S COMING TO RESCUE >>HIS PEOPLE
• 18:29 BECAUSE THE JEWS HAVE TO CALL ON THE LORD TO RESCUE THEM.
• 18:33 SO, WHAT WE'RE SEEING, WE'RE NOT >>IN THE TRIBULATION, WE'RE STILL IN THE CHURCH AGE
• 18:38 AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING, THOUGH IS >>BECAUSE ISRAEL IS BACK IN THE LAND
• 18:42 AND JUST AS THERE WAS A TIME OF >>STAGE-SETTING FOR CHRIST'S FIRST COMING,
• 18:47 IT DIDN'T JUST HAPPEN ONE DAY, >>SO THERE'S A STAGE-SETTING
• 18:51 FOR EVENTS LEADING UP TO HIS SECOND COMING.
• 18:53 SO, ISRAEL'S BACK IN THE LAND AND THAT'S WHAT HEIGHTENS OUR EXPECTATION
• 18:56 THAT GOD'S PREPARING THE FIELD, THEY USE THE TERM IN WAR TODAY,
• 19:01 "PREPARING THE BATTLEFIELD" IF YOU WILL.
• 19:03 WELL, HE'S PREPARING BY SETTING THE STAGE, REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE,
• 19:07 GOG AND MAGOG, RUSSIA AND THE ARAB COALITION THAT ARE GOING TO COME.
• 19:12 WE SEE THE APOSTASY IN THE CHURCH, SEE THE CHURCH WHICH RELATES TO THE CHURCH AGE
• 19:17 AND WE SEE A DECLINE OF FAITH INCLUDING THE STATEMENT OF
• 19:23 WHERE IS THE PROMISE OF HIS COMING,
• 19:24 IS ONE OF THE APOSTATE STATEMENTS THAT YOU FIND IN THE CHURCH AGE.
• 19:27 SO, YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE SAYING JESUS CAME BACK IN A.D. 70, >>JESUS ISN'T COMING BACK AGAIN,
• 19:31 SOME OF THE FULL PRETERISTS, >>YOU'VE GOT LIBERALS WHO BELIEVE HE'S JUST NOT GOING TO COME BACK
• 19:37 HE'S COMING BACK IN OUR HEARTS.
• 19:38 EXACTLY, ALL THESE SPIRITUALIZED THINGS.
• 19:41 YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS TEACH MY GROUPS,
• 19:42 ESPECIALLY WHEN WE'RE STANDING IN THE UPPER ROOM IN JERUSALEM
• 19:44 AND I SAY, IF THEY'RE TEACHING >>THAT HE'S NOT COMING BACK FOR THEM, I THINK THEY'RE RIGHT.
• 19:50 IF THAT'S WHAT YOU TEACH, THAT'S WHAT YOU GET.
• 19:55 SO, THE WHOLE FOCUS, JUST LIKE >>2000 YEARS AGO
• 19:59 WHEN CHRIST CAME THE FIRST TIME >>IS IN ISRAEL AND JERUSALEM,
• 20:04 THEN THE WHOLE FOCUS IS GOING TO >>BE IN THE FUTURE EVENTS ON ISRAEL AND JERUSALEM
• 20:10 IN RELATIONSHIP THIS TIME TO THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD.
• 20:14 SO THIS IS WHY WE'RE SEEING, I THINK, THIS ANTI-SEMITISM,
• 20:18 BUT, IT JUST BOTHERS ME THAT MANY EVANGELICAL INCREASINGLY
• 20:22 ARE MOVING AWAY FROM SUPPORTFOR >>ISRAEL AND IT HASN'T GAINED TRACTION WITH THE MASSES YET,
• 20:29 BUT, IF YOU LOOK AT THE ACADEMIC >>COMMUNITIES AND ALL OF THESE JUST 25 YEARS AGO,
• 20:35 THESE SEMINARIES AND BIBLE COLLEGES THAT WERE STARTED BY BIBLE-BELIEVING,
• 20:42 LITERAL INTERPRETING PEOPLE WHO >>BELIEVED IN PROPHECY,
• 20:46 BELIEVED ISRAEL WAS SIGNIFICANT >>AND HAD A THING,
• 20:48 NOW THEY'RE BEING REPLACED BY A >>WHOLE NEW GENERATION OF >>ACADEMICS WHO EITHER QUESTION,
• 20:53 ONE WILL PUT IT IN THE CONTEXT >>WHILE OTHERS FIVE POSSIBLE >>INTERPRETATIONS OF THIS PASSAGE,
• 20:59 YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING. >>YES.
• 21:00 OR THEY'RE BECOMING HOSTILE TO THIS.
• 21:03 THEY MAKE FUN IN SOME INSTANCES >>OF THE PEOPLE THAT PROCEEDED THEM,
• 21:08 THE GREAT PROPHECY TEACHERS THAT >>PROCEEDED THEM AND VERY FEW SCHOOLS NOW ARE,
• 21:15 EVEN IF SOME OF THEM MAY HOLD TO >>THESE VIEWS, THEY'RE NOT SPEAKING OUT ANY MORE.
• 21:20 I THINK YOU KIND OF KNOW ABOUT THAT.
• 21:21 YES, OUR MINISTRY GOES AFTER THIS KIND OF ERROR.
• 21:25 WE'VE CRITICIZED THE SEMINARIES >>AND THEN PEOPLE WRITE TO US,
• 21:29 HOW CAN YOU CRITICIZE MOODY BIBLE INSTITUTE, DALLAS SEMINARY, ETC.
• 21:32 WE KNOW WHERE OF WE SPEAK.
• 21:33 OUR CHIEF THEOLOGIAN DR. TOM MCCALL, HE'S GOT A DOCTORATE FROM DALLAS,
• 21:37 HE AND I WROTE BOOKS, BEST SELLERS FOR MOODY BIBLE INSTITUTE.
• 21:40 MOODY PRESS USED TO CHECK OUR BOOKS LINE FOR LINE WITH THEOLOGIANS
• 21:46 TO MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT >>THESE NEW FANGLED IDEAS OF OURS,
• 21:50 THE "COMING RUSSIAN INVASION OF >>ISRAEL" OR "THE ANTI-CHRIST, SATAN IN THE SANCTUARY",
• 21:55 THESE ARE CONSIDERED HACKNEYED >>OLD BOOKS NOW,
• 21:58 BUT THEY WERE SO REVOLUTIONARY >>RIGHT AFTER "LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH"
• 22:02 THEY CHECKED LINE FOR LINE TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS TOTALLY BIBLICAL.
• 22:06 THAT'D BE A LAUGH NOW.
• 22:07 I DON'T KNOW IF THEY EVEN UNDERSTAND PROPHECY.
• 22:10 IT WOULD BE REJECTED BY THEIR EDITORS BEFORE, THEY WOULDN'T PUBLISH IT.
• 22:15 THEY DON'T PUBLISH IT, ANYMORE.
• 22:16 I WENT TO THE MOODY BOOKSTORE, >>I'M SORRY TOMMY, ONE MORE THOUGHT.
• 22:21 MY WIFE AND I WENT IN THE MOODY BOOKSTORE
• 22:23 BECAUSE REV. ED HINDSON TOLD ME HE WENT THERE AND THERE WERE NO >>BOOKS ABOUT PROPHECY.
• 22:27 WELL, I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT, SO I WENT PERSONALLY AND I EXAMINED THE WHOLE BOOKSTORE.
• 22:33 YOU KNOW WHAT, >>HE'S RIGHT. >>HE'S RIGHT.
• 22:36 THERE WAS A FEW OF TIM LAHAYE'S >>"LEFT BEHIND"
• 22:39 BUT NO TEACHING BOOKS ABOUT PROPHECY IN A SEMINARY BOOKSTORE.
• 22:44 AND EVEN THINK, SOME OF THE FACULTY STILL HAS BOOKS FROM MOODY PRESS IN PRINT
• 22:49 TEACHING ABOUT PROPHECY AT MOODY.
• 22:50 MY BOOKS ARE, WELL, WE'VE TAKEN >>OVER COPYRIGHTS AND STILL >>RELEASE THEM AND PEOPLE AT MOODY
• 22:58 I GUESS WOULDN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND >>THEM NOW AND THEY USED TO CHECK THEM OUT.
• 23:01 SO, WHAT WE'RE SEEING IS, I THINK,
• 23:05 EVEN THOUGH A MAJORITY OF AMERICAN EVANGELICALS ARE PRO-ISRAEL,
• 23:08 WE'RE SEEING THAT THE BASIS >>THAT'S BUILT AND SUPPORTED THAT >>IS ERODING, YOU SEE
• 23:15 AND THAT MEANS IN THE FUTURE >>PROBABLY THERE'S GOING TO BE A >>DECLINE IN SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL
• 23:23 UNLESS PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND OTHERS LIKE YOU
• 23:24 HAVE A GREATER VOICE AND IMPACT >>ON THE 20 SOMETHINGS AND 30 SOMETHINGS.
• 23:30 I'M DOING WHAT I CAN, I REALLY AM,
• 23:32 BUT, THE LAST TIME I SPOKE AT DALLAS SEMINARY,
• 23:34 I'M ON THEIR SHORT LIST OF APPROVED CHAPEL SPEAKERS,
• 23:37 BUT, I HAVEN'T HAD VERY MANY INVITATIONS LATELY.
• 23:39 BUT, I DID BACK, IT HAD TO BE ALMOST 10 YEARS AGO THAT I SPOKE THERE
• 23:43 BUT, I ASKED MOSHE ROSEN, THE FOUNDER OF JEWS FOR JESUS,
• 23:47 WHAT SHOULD I TELL THE PEOPLE AT >>DALLAS SEMINARY?
• 23:49 HE SAID START OUT BY SAYING, I COME TO YOU LIKE A MARRIAGE COUNSELOR
• 23:54 TO TELL YOU NOT TO FORGET YOUR FIRST LOVE.
• 23:57 VERY GOOD.
• 23:57 I DID IT, BUT I HAD SKEPTICAL KIDS LOOKING AT ME FROM THE AUDIENCE,
• 24:02 FACULTY MEMBERS LOOKING AROUND, >>BUT YOU KNOW A FEW THINGS HAPPENED,
• 24:06 WHEN I WAS DONE WALKING OFF THE PODIUM, A FACULTY MEMBER WALKING PAST ME
• 24:10 KIND OF JUST UNDER OUR COATS SQUEEZED MY HAND LIKE TO SAY, "SELL IT BROTHER".
• 24:15 HE WOULDN'T WANT TO BE CAUGHT BY >>THE REST OF THE FACULTY, YOU KNOW.
• 24:18 WE USED TO CALL THAT THE SANHEDRIN WHEN WE I WAS A STUDENT.
• 24:21 THEY SAT UP THERE ON THE STAGE >>LIKE GOD KNOWS--
• 24:25 IN CASE SOME HERESY DRIPPED OUT >>FROM THEM.
• 24:29 CHECKING OUT EVERYTHING I SAID.
• 24:30 BUT, IT PAST MUSTARD, AT LEAST THEY LET ME FINISH AND THE GUY >>SQUEEZED MY HAND,
• 24:35 I'LL NEVER FORGET IT AS IF TO >>SAY "PREACH IT BROTHER", BUT I'M DOING THIS IN PRIVATE DOWN HERE.
• 24:40 ZOLA, IT'S MIND BOGGLING TO ME >>WHEN YOU READ THE SCRIPTURES
• 24:44 AND ISRAEL IS ON EVERY PAGE IN >>THE SCRIPTURES AND THEY SAY
• 24:48 ISRAEL DOESN'T MEAN ISRAEL, >>THE CHURCH TOOK OVER FOR ISRAEL.
• 24:50 THIS BOOK WRITTEN AND PUBLISHED >>IN JERUSALEM BY JEWS.
• 24:54 EXACTLY--
• 24:55 TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH FOR USE OVER HERE.
• 24:58 BECAUSE WE'RE SO, THE EVANGELICALS ARE PRO-ISRAEL,
• 25:01 THEN WE'RE NEGLECTING THE >>PALESTINIAN CHRISTIANS, YOU KNOW >>AND THESE KINDS OF THINGS.
• 25:07 ANSWER THAT ONE IF DON'T MIND.
• 25:08 I GET IT EVERY TIME I SPEAK IN CHURCHES.
• 25:09 HOW MANY PALESTINIAN BORN-AGAIN >>BELIEVERS ARE THERE?
• 25:12 YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY >>ARE OVER THERE,
• 25:13 BUT THERE'S A LOT LESS NOW BECAUSE OF ISLAM, NOT BECAUSE OF ISRAEL.
• 25:18 CHASING THEM OUT.
• 25:19 IN FACT, I GOT A SCHOLARLY ARTICLE FOR MY BOOK THAT I'M USING
• 25:22 SHOWING THAT THERE IS A SIMILAR >>DECLINE OF BOTH PALESTINIAN CHRISTIANS,
• 25:29 WHETHER THEY'RE EVANGELICAL OR NOT IN JORDAN WHEN THE MUSLIMS TOOK OVER JORDAN,
• 25:36 WHEN SYRIA WENT INTO TO JORDAN.
• 25:37 LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENING IN IRAQ, >>THEY'RE PERSECUTING THE CHRISTIANS.
• 25:42 THEY'RE CHASING THEM OUT.
• 25:42 SO, IT'S NOT THE JEWS, >>BECAUSE BEFORE ISRAEL, WHAT WAS >>THAT PEACE TREATY, OSLO.
• 25:52 IN THE EARLY 90S THERE WAS NOT A >>PROBLEM OF CHRISTIANS
• 25:58 OR PALESTINIAN CHRISTIANS AS THEY'RE CALLED,
• 26:00 ALTHOUGH WE KNOW THE ANCIENT PALESTINIANS WERE INVENTED IN 1964 BY YASSER ARAFAT,
• 26:05 BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE EXPERIENCED DECLINES,
• 26:11 THEY WERE VERY STEADY PEOPLE, >>WERE NOT IMMIGRATING OR LEAVING >>THE STATE OF ISRAEL
• 26:16 UNTIL THE MUSLIMS CAME IN AND TOOK OVER.
• 26:18 HAVE TO LEAVE IT AT THAT, TOMMY, >>THAT'S VERY GOOD.
• 26:21 I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO--
• 26:23 I WISH YOU COULD STAY ALL DAY AND ITS FUN TO TALK TO YOU
• 26:27 AND YOU'RE SO RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING.
• 26:28 THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY.
• 26:30 I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
• 26:31 THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
• 26:31 I CONSIDER IT AN HONOR TO BE ON >>YOUR PROGRAM.
• 26:34 OK. HE'S TOMMY ICE.
• 26:35 HE'S GOT BOOKS IN THE BOOKSTORE.
• 26:36 HE'S A GOOD MAN TO HEAR AS YOU >>HAVE JUST EXPERIENCED.
• 26:40 AND SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALYIM PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.
