Caption transcript for Israel, My Love: Part 1 (1/6)

• 00:06 HE'S GOING TO PREACH CHRIST AND HIM CRUCIFIED.
• 00:09 FAMINE, PESTILENCE, EARTHQUAKES, WARS, THE SECOND RESURRECTIONS OF UNBELIEVERS.
• 00:15 WELL, I THINK WHEN GOD CHOOSES A PEOPLE, THE DEVIL CHOOSES..
• 00:18 THE BELIEVERS WILL BE A VAST..
• 00:19 SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM, PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.
• 00:22 ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES IS PROUD TO PRESENT A SERIES
• 00:25 HIGHLIGHTING OVER ONE QUARTER CENTURY OF TELEVISION PROGRAMS.
• 00:30 ISRAEL MY LOVE: 27 YEARS WITH ZOLA LEVITT.
• 00:38 SHALOM, HELLO AGAIN. I'M SANDRA LEVITT.
• 00:42 I'M HERE WITH JEFFREY SEIF AND WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT 27 YEARS OF ZOLA'S MINISTRY.
• 00:47 WE'RE DOING 6 PROGRAMS, LOOKING BACK AT THE IMPACT THAT ZOLA HAD
• 00:52 ON BOTH GENTILES AND JEWISH BELIEVERS.
• 00:55 JEFF, I DON'T KNOW IF WE'LL EVER KNOW THE ENTIRE IMPACT THAT ZOLA HAD.
• 00:58 WHAT A PROFOUND IMPACT HE HAD.
• 01:01 HE MINISTERED IN A WORLD WHEN MORE JEWISH PEOPLE HAD COME TO FAITH
• 01:05 IN THE LAST 20 YEARS THAN PREVIOUS 2 MILLENNIA.
• 01:09 IT'S INCREDIBLE.
• 01:11 AND OF ALL THOSE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF JEWISH PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME TO EXCEPT JESUS,
• 01:15 NONE WERE ELEVATED TO HAVE SUCH A NATIONAL MINISTRY, SUCH SCOPE AS ZOLA.
• 01:20 ONE OF THE FIRST PROGRAMS ZOLA DID BACK IN 1983 WAS APTLY TITLED, "YESHUA".
• 01:31 THAT'S THE RAM'S HORN, THE TRUMPET OF THE BIBLE.
• 01:34 IT SOUNDED WHEN JOSHUA CAME HERE TO ISRAEL AND IT SOUNDED WHEN JESUS CAME HERE TO ISRAEL.
• 01:39 JESUS WALKED THESE VERY STREETS OF JERUSALEM.
• 01:42 THEY CALLED HIM YESHUA AND HE CHANGED THE HEARTS OF MEN.
• 01:47 HE PROMISED TO RETURN AND THAT IS WHY WE CELEBRATE.
• 01:52 ♪YESHUA RETURN UNTO OUR ♪FATHERS, YESHUA, ♪RETURN TO US ALONE.
• 01:59 ♪YESHUA, RETURN UNTO ISRAEL, ♪YESHUA, RETURN UNTO YOUR OWN,
• 02:07 ♪YESHUA, RETURN UNTO ISRAEL, ♪YESHUA, RETURN UNTO YOUR OWN.
• 02:24 ♪YESHUA.
• 02:28 BECAUSE IT SAYS IN THE NEXT VERSE IN 21,
• 02:30 FOR ALL THE ATHENIANS AND STRANGERS, WHICH WERE THERE
• 02:33 SPENT THERE TIME IN NOTHING ELSE BUT EITHER TO TELL OR TO HEAR SOME NEW THING.
• 02:39 WORLDLY WISDOM, INTELLECTUALISM, IT'S A GOOD THING
• 02:42 IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WAYS TO IMPROVE THE ECONOMY
• 02:47 OR WAYS TO MAKE STEEL OR WAYS TO OPERATE MARKET PLACES,
• 02:52 BUT NOT AT ALL A GOOD THING IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR GOD, BECAUSE THAT'S WORK FOR THE HEART.
• 02:58 AS WE TALK ABOUT GENTILE SALVATION, JAIL CELLS ARE PART OF IT,
• 03:03 BECAUSE WHEN THE APOSTLES WENT OUT IN THE EMPIRE,
• 03:06 THEY SAW A BUNCH OF THEM,
• 03:07 THEY EVEN BROUGHT A JAILER TO CHRIST.
• 03:09 THIS JAIL CELL IS RIGHT AGAINST THE ROCKS, RIGHT AT THE SEA
• 03:13 FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF TAKING PEOPLE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOAT
• 03:16 WHO HAVEN'T GOT THE RIGHT PAPERS OR THE RIGHT RELIGION
• 03:19 AND INCARCERATING THEM IMMEDIATELY.
• 03:21 HOW DID THEY MOVE THE STONES TO MAKE THE WALL?
• 03:24 WELL THE LIFTING UP, OF COURSE, THAT IS VERY DIFFICULT,
• 03:27 THEY ONLY CAN REPLACE THEM BY ROLLING THEM OVER ROLLERS AND THEN UP AROUND, ROLLING OFF
• 03:34 SO THAT YOU CAN CONTINUE WALKING ON THE WATER.
• 03:36 BY ROLLING THEM THEY WOULD MOVE THEM.
• 03:38 HERE FOR EXAMPLE, THE HEIGHT OF THE STONE IS HERE THE GREAT CAUSE,
• 03:43 WHICH MEANS THE STONES SPECIALLY CARVED IT'S WHERE YOU LOOK FOR THE DOOR ITSELF, THE ENTRANCE,
• 03:49 WHICH YOU CAN POINT OUT THIS LEVEL.
• 03:53 ♪DO NOT EVER URGE ME TO GO, ♪OR DESERT YOUR SIDE ♪AND LEAVE YOU
• 04:06 ♪OR MAY GOD TO ME AND MORE ♪IF ANYTHING.
• 04:15 PROCLAIMING THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS, THE MESSIAH, YESHUA, HAMASHIACH,
• 04:18 HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE CENTRAL THEME OF ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES.
• 04:22 IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE CENTRAL FOCUS FOR US.
• 04:25 JEFF, I'M GLAD YOU'RE HERE.
• 04:27 GLAD TO BE HERE, AS WELL.
• 04:28 WHEN ZOLA WAS HERE, HE, MORE THAN ANYONE HELPED US IN THE WORLD
• 04:32 SEE THE JEWISHNESS OF JESUS, YESHUA, FOCUSING ON HIS FIRST COMING.
• 04:36 THEN I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS WITH ZOLA, HE WAS TAKING US TO THE SECOND COMING
• 04:40 AND WE'RE GOING NOW LOOK AS SOME OF ZOLA'S SERIES, SOME TEXT ON THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS,
• 04:46 BIBLE PROPHECY AND ISRAEL'S PLACE IN THE UNFOLDING DRAMA.
• 05:36 A GENERATION IN THAT SENSE IS NOT A 40 YEAR, 35 YEAR, 30 YEAR PERIOD,
• 05:41 BUT A KIND OF PEOPLE AND WHAT THE LORD WAS ASSURING THEM WAS THIS KIND OF PEOPLE,
• 05:46 THE ISRAELITE PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO PASS AWAY UNTIL ALL THE SIGNS BE FULFILLED.
• 05:51 A NECESSARY THING TO SAY AS WE NOW SEE MODERN ISRAEL,
• 05:54 BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO SOME, TO SOME ISRAELIS IN FACT,
• 05:57 THIS NATION CAN'T LAST THROUGH WHAT'S GOING ON.
• 06:00 NOW OUR LOCATION IS ON MT. MORIAH, THE CENTER OF THE EARTH, THE TEMPLE MOUNT
• 06:05 AND BEHIND ME IS THE DOME OF THE ROCK, ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS IN THE WORLD,
• 06:10 THE MUSLIM DOME, WHICH WAS ERECTED 691 A.D. AND IS STILL IN USE EVERYDAY.
• 06:15 IMAGINE A 1300 YEAR OLD BUILDING STILL USED FOR PRAYER AND WORSHIP IN THE ISLAM FAITH.
• 06:21 THIS IS THE SITE, HOWEVER, OF A LOT OF ACTION IN THE FUTURE
• 06:26 AND ULTIMATELY IN THE KINGDOM TO COME, A BRAND NEW TEMPLE.
• 06:30 GO THEREFORE AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS,
• 06:35 BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT,
• 06:40 TEACHING THEM TO OBSERVE ALL THAT I COMMANDED YOU AND LO,
• 06:45 I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, EVEN TO THE END OF THE AGE.
• 07:11 SHALOM, HELLO AGAIN.
• 07:13 ARE WE LIVING AT THE END OF THE AGE?
• 07:14 THAT'S THE QUESTION BEING ASKED ALL OVER IN THE WORLD
• 07:18 LIKE WE HAVE TODAY AND WE'RE STARTING AN ONGOING SERIES TO TRY TO ANSWER IT.
• 07:22 WHY HAS ISRAEL HAD NOTHING BUT WAR SINCE SHE'S BEEN RESETTLED?
• 07:26 WELL, I THINK WHEN GOD CHOOSES A PEOPLE, THE DEVIL CHOOSES THEM, TOO.
• 07:29 IT'S ALL GOING TO BE WRAPPED UP RIGHT HERE WHERE ARE IN THAT BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON
• 07:35 AND THEN THE LORD WILL RETURN TO PUT A STOP TO ALL THESE WARS
• 07:39 AND THAT REALLY WILL BE THE WAR TO END ALL WARS.
• 08:21 THE DAY OF THE LORD SO COMETH AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT, FOR WHEN THEY SHALL SAY PEACE AND SAFETY,
• 08:29 THEN SUDDEN DESTRUCTION COMETH UPON THEM AND THEY SHALL NOT ESCAPE.
• 08:34 ZOLA LEVITT PRESENTS, "SIGNS OF THE END".
• 08:52 I WAS IN ISRAEL WITH OUR TOUR SEPTEMBER 11
• 08:55 WHEN THE TERRORISM HIT IN NEW YORK AND WASHINGTON AND NEAR PITTSBURGH, PA. WHERE I GREW UP.
• 09:02 IT WAS UNIMAGINABLE TO ME AND I'M NOT SAYING I KNOW ANYTHING MORE ABOUT THIS
• 09:09 THEN ALL THE OTHER TV COMMENTATORS OR THAN YOU YOURSELF,
• 09:13 BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD TALK TO OUR AUDIENCE ABOUT JUST WHAT WE WERE FEELING ON THE TOUR.
• 09:19 WE'RE LIVING IN MOMENTOUS DAYS,
• 09:21 BUT IF WE HAVE THE WILL TO DIG A LITTLE BIT,
• 09:24 WE DISCOVER SOME OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE THINGS IN THE BIBLE.
• 09:28 THE BIBLE CONTINUES TO BE A STEP AHEAD AND MORE THAN EVER,
• 09:32 WE NEED TO BUILD OUR LIVES UPON IT BECAUSE WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS COMING,
• 09:37 FOR GOD HAS WARNED US.
• 09:39 THE IDEA THAT THE ANTI-CHRIST WILL RIDE UP AND MAKE A PEACE TREATY WITH ISRAEL
• 09:43 TO START THE TRIBULATION IS EMULATED BY THE IDEA
• 09:47 THAT WE'RE ALL THE TIME TRYING TO MAKE PEACE TREATIES.
• 09:51 THIS DIDN'T START UNTIL THE EARLY 90'S BUT ONCE IT STARTED,
• 09:54 I THOUGHT IN EARNEST, WE ARE HEADING TOWARD THE ANTI-CHRIST'S ULTIMATE DEBUT.
• 09:59 WE SHOULD KNOW THE THINGS IN SCRIPTURE ARE FOR OUR ADMONITION AND OUR WARNING.
• 10:05 WHEN WE RETURN, WE WILL DIG INTO THE CAVES NEAR THE DEAD SEA
• 10:10 IN ORDER TO REVEAL THE SECRETS OF THE SCROLLS.
• 10:15 WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK IN A MOMENT.

• 10:43 OR THE HOLY LAND EXPERIENCE THEME PARK IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA.
• 10:47 PLEASE CONTACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION.
• 10:50 ♪FOLLOW ME TO GALILEE
• 10:52 AND JESUS SAID UNTO THEM, DO NOT BE AFRAID, GO TELL MY BRETHREN TO GO INTO GALILEE,
• 10:58 THERE THEY WILL SEE.
• 11:02 IT STRENGTHENS OUR FAITH TO KNOW THAT JESUS WALKED ON THE WATER AND THAT WE CAN CALL OUT TO HIM.
• 11:08 IT MAKES THE WHOLE SCRIPTURES COME TO LIFE.
• 11:21 THAT'S ISRAEL, THAT'S THE WAY WE SEE AND THAT'S THE WAY WE LOVE IT.
• 11:24 IT'S THE MIRACLE LAND OF THE BIBLE.
• 11:28 I THINK, PERSONALLY, ISRAEL'S RESURRECTION IS A GREAT MIRACLE.
• 11:34 NOT ONLY DID THE NATION STATE RISE UP,
• 11:36 THERE'S INTERESTING MANUSCRIPTS THAT HAVE SEEMED TO COME UP FROM THE EARTH, AS WELL
• 11:39 THAT WERE FOUND RECENTLY.
• 11:41 WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT ONE.
• 11:42 ZOLA DID A SPECIAL ON THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS IN 1991.
• 12:45 THIS IS THE JUDEAN WILDERNESS AND IT IS HERE THAT A FEW YEARS EARLIER IN 1947
• 12:50 A BEDOUIN BOY THREW A STONE THROUGH THE OPENING OF A CAVE
• 12:54 AND HEARING THE SOUND OF BREAKING POTTERY, ENTERED THE CAVE,
• 12:58 WITNESSING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 2000 YEARS, THE HIDDEN TREASURE OF THIS QUMRAN COMMUNITY.
• 13:05 HE HAD DISCOVERED THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS.
• 13:09 45 YEARS LATER, ARCHEOLOGIST AND LANGUAGE EXPERTS ARE STILL LOOKING,
• 13:13 STILL TRYING TO PIECE TOGETHER AN AMAZING PUZZLE
• 13:16 OF INTERNATIONAL PROPORTIONS.
• 13:21 THESE PEOPLE WERE JEWS.
• 13:23 THEY ROSE TO PRAY BEFORE DAWN AND THEY HELD TO THE SABBATH RIGOROUSLY.
• 13:27 THEY HAD A COMMUNITY COUNCIL OF 12 WITH AN INNER-GROUP OF 3.
• 13:31 JESUS OF COURSE, HAD 12 DISCIPLES AND THAT INNER-GROUP OF 3 IN PETER, JAMES AND JOHN.
• 13:37 THE QUMRAN GROUP HAD SACRED MEALS WITH PRAYERS, MUCH LIKE THE LAST SUPPER OR COMMUNION.
• 13:43 THEY TALKED ABOUT THE "RUACH HAKODESH" THE HOLY SPIRIT AND ABOUT THE LAST DAYS.
• 13:50 THE FOURTH LINE HERE IS THE ONE THAT'S REALLY INTERESTING THAT SAYS,
• 13:54 (SPEAKING HEBREW)
• 14:02 NOW WE KNOW FROM OTHER DEAD SEA SCROLLS
• 14:05 THAT THE WORDS NESI HA'AIDAH, PRINCE OF THE CONGREGATION
• 14:07 REFERS TO A MESSIANIC SON OF DAVID FIGURE.
• 14:11 THEY ARE SPEAKING OF A MESSIANIC FIGURE HERE, WHO'S EVIDENTLY BEING PUT TO DEATH.
• 14:14 FROM THE DESERT JUST OUTSIDE OF JERUSALEM,
• 14:19 COMES ONE OF THE GREATEST STORIES OF THE MODERN WORLD, THE STORY OF THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS.
• 14:25 SANDRA, FOR 17 YEARS I'VE BEEN A COLLEGE PROFESSOR AND I'VE TAUGHT ON THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS.
• 14:30 PERSONALLY, I'VE ALWAYS BEEN AMAZED AT HOW THOSE ANCIENTS
• 14:35 WERE INTERESTED IN INTERPRETING THE OLD TESTAMENT AND GIVING REFERENCE TO THE COMING MESSIAH.
• 14:39 YOU KNOW, JEFF, WHEN THEY FOUND THOSE SCROLLS AND THEY INTERPRETED THEM,
• 14:42 NOT ONE LETTER WAS MISTAKEN.
• 14:44 IT CARRIED ON ALL THOSE MANY, MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS.
• 14:48 YOU KNOW, ZOLA CAME TO BELIEF IN THE 70'S AS A MUSICIAN
• 14:51 AND ALMOST EVERYONE OF THE PROGRAMS HAS SOME MUSICAL IN HIM THAT HE WROTE HIMSELF.
• 14:57 THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT I THINK REALLY MADE THE PROGRAM SPECIAL.
• 15:00 ONE OF THOSE PROGRAMS IS "TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAINS" 1993, LOVELY PROGRAM.
• 15:29 ♪TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN, ♪TELL THE STORY OF THE LORD,
• 15:34 ♪STAND BEFORE THE PEOPLE ♪AND EXALT HIM.
• 15:39 ♪PRAISE HIM IN THE VALLEY, ♪SING HIS PRAISES BY THE SEA,
• 15:44 ♪TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAINS ♪SO THAT ALL MIGHT KNOW.
• 16:02 SHALOM, HELLO AGAIN.
• 16:04 WELL, WELCOME BACK TO "TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAINS".
• 16:06 TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO THE MOST FAMOUS MAYBE OF ALL OF THE MOUNTAINS,
• 16:09 THE ONE OF A KIND, MT. SINAI WHERE GOD MET MOSES.
• 16:14 THE LAW WAS FULFILLED IN JESUS CHRIST.
• 16:17 HE KEPT ALL THESE LAWS.
• 16:18 HE LIVED PERFECTLY UNDER THEM AND IF I GO TO HIM
• 16:22 THEN I GO TO HEAVEN IN THE ROBES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST.
• 16:25 FORTUNATELY, I COULD NOT KEEP THIS LAW BY MYSELF.
• 16:29 I HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE 10 COMMANDMENTS AND SO DO WE ALL.
• 16:32 IN CHRIST, I'M PERFECT, THAT IS, AS GOD LOOKS AT ME IN MY SPIRITUAL POSITION,
• 16:39 HE SAYS "THERE GOES MY SON, I RECOGNIZE THOSE ROBES."
• 16:42 THE FLOOR OF THIS SITE, PIXNER SUGGESTS OFFERS THE FIRST CLUES.
• 16:48 RECENT EXCAVATIONS REVEAL FOR US FROM OTHER PERIODS
• 16:51 INCLUDING CRUSADER, BYZANTINE AND ROMAN PERIODS.
• 16:55 SURPRISINGLY, JUDEO-CHRISTIAN GRAFFITI WAS FOUND ON THE EARLIEST FLOOR.
• 17:00 THE GRAFFITI WAS TRANSLATED BY A TEAM OF EXPERT BIBLE SCHOLARS WHO FOUND PHRASES THAT INCLUDED,
• 17:12 FATHER PIXNER WENT ON TO EXPLAIN FURTHER
• 17:15 WHY HE BELIEVES THIS TOMB SITE WAS ACTUALLY CHURCH OF THE APOSTLES.
• 17:18 PROPHECY FALLS IN THREE PARTS,
• 17:27 SO, THESE ARE THE THINGS WE SHOULD KNOW.
• 17:29 FIRST IN IMPORTANCE, I SUPPOSE, IS THE LAND BECAUSE THAT IS AN EASY ONE TO SEE.
• 17:33 ISRAEL IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT IN TODAY'S BIBLE STUDY IN CHRISTENDOM.
• 17:39 THIS IS THE PLACE WE ARE GOING FOR A THOUSAND YEAR KINGDOM UNDER THE KING OF THE JEWS
• 17:44 WHO WILL SIT ON THE THRONE OF DAVID.
• 17:46 IF WE MAKE A CHURCH SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE WESTERN WORLD AND WE BOAST AGAINST THE BRANCHES
• 17:51 AND ISRAEL IS NO LONGER OF IMPORTANCE TO US,
• 17:54 WE ARE THE ENTIRE FULFILLMENT OF GOD'S WAY, THE CHURCH HAS BECOME ISRAEL, THIS SORT OF PHILOSOPHY,
• 18:00 WE JUST GO FURTHER AND FURTHER FROM SCRIPTURE AND ULTIMATELY THAT WAY LIES MADNESS.
• 18:05 WE JUST LOSE TRACK OF WHAT WE'RE DOING.
• 18:07 YOU KNOW, ZOLA WENT TO ISRAEL ALMOST 80 TIMES.
• 18:10 WE'VE HAD SOME WONDERFUL, INTERESTING PEOPLE THAT WE'VE INTERVIEWED.
• 18:13 HERE ARE SOME OF THOSE INTERVIEWS.
• 18:15 I HAVE WRITTEN ON THE SUBJECT OF CHINA.
• 18:19 THAT'S JUST ONE OF THE MANY INDICATIONS
• 18:22 THAT THE KINGS OF THE EAST AS IT SAYS IN REVELATION 16
• 18:26 WOULD MARCH ACROSS THE DRIED UP EUPHRATES RIVER IN PREPARATION FOR THE GREAT ARMAGEDDON BATTLE
• 18:32 THAT OCCURS JUST PRIOR TO THE COMING OF CHRIST.
• 18:36 WELL, I FIND THAT IT'S RATHER INTERESTING WITH MANY OTHER SIGNS OF OUR TIMES
• 18:40 THAT LOOK LIKE WE COULD ANTICIPATE THAT EVENT.
• 18:43 IT'S ALSO AT THIS PERIOD OF TIME THAT CHINA IS REACHING OUT TO BECOME A MAJOR WORLD PLAYER
• 18:50 ON THE STAGE OF THE HISTORY AND FOR 5000 YEARS CHINA HAS NOT BEEN A THREAT TO ANYONE,
• 18:57 BUT TODAY, IN OUR LIFETIME, WE'RE SEEING THE CAPACITY
• 19:00 AND THE FACT THAT THEY COULD SEND A HUGE ARMY ACROSS THE DRIED-UP EUPHRATES RIVER
• 19:05 AGAINST CHRIST IN THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON.
• 19:08 BEING BORN IN AN AGRICULTURAL, COOPERATIVE VILLAGE IN 1928,
• 19:13 SHARON HAS ALWAYS FELT DEEPLY ROOTED IN THE LAND.
• 19:16 MYSELF, MY STRENGTH NEVER CAME FROM ANY POLITICAL APPARATUS.
• 19:22 IT CAME FROM MY HOME, MY FAMILY,
• 19:26 FROM THIS BEAUTIFUL LAND AND TERRAIN, THIS ROLLING TERRAIN
• 19:32 AND THE ANIMALS AND THE TREES AND THE FLOWERS
• 19:36 AND MY ROOTS ARE NOT IN A POLITICAL PARTY.
• 19:42 THEY'RE IN THE LAND, ALWAYS WERE AND THEY ARE NOW.
• 19:46 WHY DO YOU CALL IT THE WEST BANK?
• 19:48 IT WAS ONLY CALLED THE WEST BANK FOR 19 YEARS AND THOSE 19 YEARS WERE OF A JORDANIAN OCCUPATION.
• 19:56 THE ARAB LEGION, THE JORDANIAN ARMY STORMED ACROSS THE JORDAN RIVER IN 1948
• 20:02 AND IT WAS ONLY HERE FOR 19 YEARS.
• 20:04 IT'S NOW BEEN UNDER ISRAELI ADMINISTRATION FOR 25 YEARS
• 20:08 AND THE JORDAN OCCUPATION OF THE LAND WAS ILLEGAL.
• 20:12 WHY DOES EVERYBODY KEEP CALLING IT THE WEST BANK?
• 20:14 MUCH HAS HAPPENED IN THE 27 YEARS DURING WHICH TIME ZOLA BROADCAST.
• 20:20 AT FIRST, HE WAS MINDED TO TELL THE STORY OF THE TERRIFIC
• 20:24 AND THEN HE TOLD THE STORY OF THE TERRIFYING
• 20:27 AS TERRORISM MADE ITS ENTRANCE ONTO THE STAGE OF HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
• 20:32 NOW WE'LL LOOK AT ZOLA LEVITT IN THE "AGE OF TERROR".
• 21:03 SHALOM, HELLO AGAIN.
• 21:05 WELCOME TO OUR NEW SERIES, "AGE OF TERROR".
• 21:08 I'M SORRY WE HAVE TO MAKE A SERIES CALLED THAT, BUT, WE REALLY DO.
• 21:12 AND OUR EXPERT, OUR GUEST IS WALID SHOEBAT WHO YOU'VE HEARD ON THIS PROGRAM BEFORE.
• 21:18 HE'S A BEAUTIFUL, BORN AGAIN, FORMER TERRORIST, MUSLIM
• 21:25 WHO HAS COME TO CHRIST AND HE'S TOLD HIS STORY ON OUR PROGRAM BEFORE
• 21:29 AND WE ASKED HIM BACK TO TALK ABOUT THIS FASCINATING SUBJECT.
• 21:33 WHAT A SITUATION.
• 21:34 IT REALLY DOES LOOK LIKE THE END TIMES COMING, DOESN'T IT?
• 21:37 YES, IN FACT, IT'S VERY CLEAR, EVEN PARALLELS IT WITH REVELATION
• 21:41 THAT BEING CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE
• 21:43 AND MOST CHRISTIANS READ THIS TEXT
• 21:46 AND THEY LOOK AT VERSE 23 OF EZEKIEL 32,
• 21:53 IN FACT IF YOU JUST SEARCH FOR THE WORD, "THE PIT"
• 21:59 THIS IS THE COUNTRY OF IRAN RIGHT HERE AND MAYBE GOING ALL THE WAY,
• 22:03 SORRY, RIGHT HERE GOING ALL THE WAY TO AFGHANISTAN.
• 22:05 ALL THAT WILL BE PERSIA, ELAM IS PERSIA,
• 22:09 DEEP INTO THE RECESS OF THE PIT
• 22:14 WHICH IS TURKEY WITHIN THAT REGION RIGHT HERE, DEEP INTO THE RECESS OF THE PIT.
• 22:19 ALL THESE NATIONS AND ARMIES.
• 22:21 IN FACT, IT SAYS IT VERY CLEARLY IN VERSE 27,
• 22:30 EDOM INCLUDES ALL THE ARAB WORLD IN "DOWN TO THE PIT".
• 22:33 THIS PARALLELS EXACTLY WHAT REVELATION 19 IS SPEAKING OF.
• 22:37 IN PRESENT DAY, THE PALESTINIANS, SO-CALLED,
• 22:41 THE ARABS ARE DIGGING AROUND UNDER THE PLATFORM OF THE OLD TEMPLE
• 22:46 AND TAKING OUT EVIDENCES OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE THAT ARE THERE UNDERGROUND
• 22:51 AND IT'S AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL CRIME THAT GOES ON AND ON
• 22:54 BECAUSE THIS GOVERNMENT IS BUSY WITH MORE IMPORTANT THINGS, KEEPING PEOPLE ALIVE,
• 23:00 BUT THE PALESTINIANS ARE, IN THEIR VIEW,
• 23:04 IF THEY DEFACE A STATUE AND TAKE THE FACE AWAY,
• 23:07 THE PERSON SORT OF IS ERASED FROM HISTORY.
• 23:09 WELL, IF THEY TAKE THE ARTIFACTS OUT OF THE MOUNT,
• 23:12 THEN MAYBE PEOPLE WILL FORGET ABOUT THE JEWISH TEMPLE AND SO ON.
• 23:15 IN SEVERAL CASES IN HISTORY THE TEMPLE HAS BEEN UTTERLY REPLACED.
• 23:21 WE HAVE WHAT WE CALL IN THE UNITED STATES, REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY
• 23:26 WHERE YOU REPLACE THE IDEALS OF A PEOPLE.
• 23:29 THE LIBERAL CHURCHES BELIEVE THEY HAVE REPLACED ISRAEL AS THE NEW CHOSEN PEOPLE.
• 23:36 SOME CHURCHES TEACH THIS GOBBLEDY-GOOK.
• 23:40 THE MUSLIMS, ISLAM WAS ORIGINALLY,
• 23:43 AND STILL TRIES TO REPLACE BOTH JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY.
• 23:48 BUT, LITERALLY REPLACING THE BUILDING,
• 23:51 THAT WAS DONE BY HADRIAN THE ROMAN EMPEROR IN 135 A.D.
• 23:56 WHEN HE BUILT THE TEMPLE OF JUPITER RIGHT ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT,
• 24:00 A ROMAN TEMPLE SO THAT WOULD KEEP THE JEWS OFF THE MOUNT AND SO FORTH.
• 24:04 THE PHOENICIANS WENT TO TUNIS AND ESTABLISHED WHAT BECAME CARTHAGE
• 24:10 FROM WHERE HANNIBAL CAME.
• 24:12 THEY DID MALTA, THEY CAME DOWN THE COASTLINE ON THIS SIDE OF THE MEDITERRANEAN,
• 24:18 DOWN THROUGH LEBANON AND AS FAR SOUTH AS WHERE WE ARE ABOUT CAESAREA ON THE ISRAELI COAST.
• 24:24 IT WAS AFTER THE EXODUS, WHICH ITSELF WAS A KIND OF ASSAULT ON THE HOLY LAND,
• 24:28 BUT THIS WAS A GODLY ASSAULT, GOD COMMANDED THE HEBREWS TO TAKE THIS LAND AND SO THEY DID.
• 24:34 AS THEY WERE DOING IT PRACTICALLY, BETWEEN THE EXODUS AND KING DAVID'S TIME,
• 24:40 THESE PHOENICIANS AND ALSO MACEDONIAN PEOPLE KNOWN AS PHILISTINES
• 24:45 ESTABLISHED THEMSELVES ALONG THE COASTS.
• 24:48 LIFE GOES ON.
• 24:50 ZOLA HAS GONE ON TO HIS REWARD.
• 24:53 THERE IS MUCH TO DO HERE ON EARTH AND I KNOW THAT HE'S CHEERING US FROM THE BALCONY.
• 24:57 WHAT DO YOU THINK SANDRA?
• 24:59 YOU KNOW, JEFF, I'VE HAD PEOPLE COME UP TO ME AND THANK US AND SAY,
• 25:03 "THANK YOU JEFF, THANK YOU SANDRA FOR GOING ON
• 25:06 AND CONTINUING THE MINISTRY THAT ZOLA STARTED."
• 25:08 I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONTINUE WATCHING THE RETROSPECTIVE
• 25:12 OF ZOLA'S 27 YEARS IN MINISTRY AND AS ALWAYS,
• 25:16 SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM, PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.
