What to determine what Paul meant when he said all Israel will be saved. In Romans 11 start reading backwards from the end of the chapter stock for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown friends, this is Michael Brown. Welcome to today's broadcast thoroughly Jewish Thursday on the line of fire.

Once again, this entire week. We've been playing specially prerecorded broadcast for you because I've taken a week to get away just to seek God and be in his presence, and do my best to live my life in full obedience to him in our ministry really ready to launch forward in 2021. Normally I'm in India the first week or so of December.

But because of COBIT in the inability to travel there and things being shut down. In terms of the ministry that I normally work with their terms of their outward meetings and things like that. We have this time free. I thought you know limitless getaway and be with the Lord. So I trust you been blessed by the broadcasts we can use the early church. There is this really digging the word and then I asked for questions on 20 don't post them now as I asked for them.

A few days back to be answering questions a lot of really fascinating questions have been posted on Twitter response in all Jewish related and then I will give you a special prayer request to join with me a little bit later in the broadcasts. Okay so impulsive. Romans 1126 all Israel will be saved, deeming all Jews throw time in history right through all history reviews ever lived will ultimately be saved or did he mean the end of the AIDS will be a national turning of the Jewish people, and hence all Israel be safe or was he talking about all Israel, meaning the cumulative number of Jewish believers through the centuries to say the remnant who believed in Paul's day right to the retina who believes in. Are they ready to the end of the age that kind of all cumulatively, that's all Israel or was he talking as if Israel was the church spiritual Israel and all Israel be saving and this is how God will save Jews and Gentiles, and how the church will be the church. Now I'm quite convinced that three out of those four views are unscriptural and impossible met only one is correct in regard to Romans 910 11 to understand what Paul was saying, but often people get stuck right at the beginning of Romans nine after he lays out his broken heart and God's ongoing purposes for the Jewish people. This broken heart for Israel.

He then says 96 will not all Israel is Israel, not all Israel is Israel and therefore raises all Israel. Later on he means either the church or just the bleeding remnant, etc. will, of course, we demonstrated time and time again that you don't stop in Romans 96 or seven that you keep reading and after making the special point that there's an Israel within Israel. Jewish believers within the nation as a whole. Every time he uses Israel 10 times in a row, letting 1126. Every time he uses Israel. He is referring to the nation as a whole, not the remnant.

Within but was helpful is if we go at this backwards. Now you will see why in a in a moment because after 1126 without any possible question without any equivocation without any ambiguity. He keeps referring back to the Israel he's been talking about right. So there's no question if you read it forward rightly if you don't stop it 96 chapter number six of night. If you don't stop there. If you keep reading you will then see it when he gets 1126 who is talking about all right but it then becomes even reinforced more strongly when we come from the back right so Romans 1136 the end of the chapter, Paul says, for from him and through him and to him are all things to him be the glory forever.

Amen. Is the tree of life version.

I actually was a consultant in the tree of life translation for the epistles you would've thought that I'd be a consultant for parts of the Hebrew Bible, but by the time I got home I been an early encourager on on the project by the time I actually got involved and was asked to give input. So, I reviewed the was all the letters either always release letters of Paul went through line by line by line, then let a Greek scholar tongue stronger and cheaper than Greek, but I know the text will enough the issues well enough that I was able interacting and make a couple suggestions was great.

Great job was done on the letters Jeff by Feinberg messenger scholar played a key role in right so this is an obvious IntelliSense about 1126 is just the praise, adoration of God. So let's pack up a few more verses, verse 33, and some of said that Paul is overcome by this revelation is given of the mercy of God on Jew and Gentile alike that he and how God rings his master plan together that since he puts his pen down raises his hands begins to worship. Right now you may have been working with scribe right. We assume that, but you get the point. So verse 33 of the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God, how unsearchable are his judgments. How incomprehensible is ways who's known the mind of Adonai the mind of the Lord who is been his counselor was first given to him that shall be repaid to him. Okay so Dennis doesn't interact directly with 1126. It is simply praise worship of God courting some verses from Isaiah just is overwhelming.

He's get to the industries I cannot believe he did this. I cannot believe how he did this, I could not believe what he has done. He is beyond amazing quite so let's go back up a few more verses as we do our backwards reading here and let's see here a certain verse 33, just as you once were disobedient to God.

But now been shown mercy because of their disobedience like manner. These also have not been disobedient with with the result that because of the mercy shown to you. They also may receive mercy forgot to shut up all in disobedience, that he might show mercy to all. Okay, so shut up all in disobedience. Jew and Gentile alike. So you may show mercy to all Jew and Gentile alike, but the contrast between you and them yours and the heirs. The previous verses.

Is he talking about earlier in the chapter he addressed Gentile believers in writing to Gentiles is been talk about the disobedience of the Jewish people and the national rejection of the Messiah. So, just as you Gentiles once were disobedient to God, but have now been shown mercy because of their disobedience use of their Jewish nation. Jewish people like manner. These also have now been disobedient Jewish people today, with the result that because the mercy shown to you Gentiles. They may also receive mercy as they Jewish people that don't believe right okay so the step back and think for a moment he saying that you Gentiles receive mercy. The message of the Messiah came to Israel to the Jewish people as a nation.

They rejected it. Now that mercy has come to you now that gospel is come to you is not your role to show mercy to the nonbelieving Jews is that you're calling to provoke the nonbelieving Jews to jealousy and then provoke to jealousy. They will then turn to the Messiah so their disobedience has brought mercy and blessing to you that you show mercy to them so that they may believe so who is he talking about that them that they the subject here. They are the Jewish people that do not believe they are the nation as a whole not know what a difference with that and I was no sound commentator or sound exegete argues with the fact that that's the day that's being spoken of the Jewish people that do not believe in that God must have mercy on and use the Gentiles to have mercy on Gentile believers in Jesus, I will. Let's let's just backup little bit more okay let's let's back up to verse 28 concerning the good news they are hostile for your sick Thursday. The nonbelieving Jews correct any possible dispute.

No, no exegete interpreter with a Bible in front of them questions that consider the good news they they being who the Jews who don't believe the nonbelieving nation of Israel.

They are hostile for your sake you the Gentile followers of Jesus, but concerning chosen this they he who Jews who don't believe that nation of Israel rejected the Messiah, they are love them, the fathers for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable so you really saying here right now you are being opposed these people are enemies of the gospel to the Jewish people do not believe the nonbelieving nation of Israel.

They are now enemies of the gospel of this for your sake right they have rejected the gospel, which means it's come to you, but they are still loved by God because the patriarchs of the gifts and calling God irrevocable, God made promises that he will keep hands early in Romans nine pulses.

The promises are still theirs right now is no ambiguity. There is no controversy here no one thing system at the church. Spiritually it's the church that's opposing the gospel notes the nonbelieving Jews. We all know that. And yet there still a promise to the nation because God gave one unconditionally Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That's why the Jewish people still here will be been preserved by God because of his promise because of his goodness's analysis. Let's back it up little bit more so relate when I can get to the beginning of 26 yet right, but let's go halfway through two 326 the deliverer shall come out of Zion shall turn away ungodliness from home. Jacob is the church.

Jacob no or Gentile Christian spiritual Jacob no who is Jacob, the Jewish people the nation as a whole and this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins.

Consider the good news they are hostile for your sake, but they are love them account of the patriots I charged for just as you were once disobedient to God have now been shown mercy because of their disobedience like manner. These have also now been disobedient with the result that because there is a junction they also may receive mercy. They they they they they who Jacob who the nonbelievers who the ones who will turn light when the Messiah comes when Yeshua returns when salvation comes to Zion and ungodliness is turn from shakeup so this is talking about at the end of the age. At the return of the Lord, a national turning of Israel, of the ungodly of the nonbeliever. That's what it's talking about so we back up to verse 25 for I do not want you brothers and sisters to be ignorant of this ministry admit ministry mystery that you be wise in your own eyes that a partial hardening is come upon Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in and in this way all Israel will be saved as it is written, the deliverer shall come out of Zion. He so coming on this from Jacob. This is my covenant with them and I take away the sins whose them was Jacob who will lose all Israel is all there is no other possible way to read it when you read it fairly and in context, especially with this backwards reading.

It's talking about a national turning of Jewish people at the end of the age in conjunction with the return of the Messiah. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown.

Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution there again is Dr. Michael Brown to move.

She she will welcome back to her through the Jewish theirs for broadcast. This is Michael Brown. Can I share prayer request with and then we go to some of your twitter questions.

Many of you know the unique position that God is put us in when it comes to Jewish ministry.

There are so many good works out there so many find ministries that are reaching Jewish people with the good news of the Messiah and I work with most of the large ones were friends, colleagues want to see her.

People come to faith, but as you know, there's been a unique role that God's called me to play with our ministry and that is being on the front lines of apologetics. Many of you have read my five volume series answering Jewish objections to Jesus or you've seen our 22 hour series on countering the counter missionaries, or you've read the real kosher Jesus or resurrection, or it may be our hands are stained with blood about anti-Semitism in church history was a life changer for you or you've watched us some of the debates that we've done over the years of eye I saw a note on my Facebook page. My personal Facebook page the other day and he said I made a Jewish person who said I would never listen to the gospel the message of Jesus and until I saw Michael Brown's material and that it was after that he was open to hear the message of for many years as I've traveled America and even the world. I have had Jewish believers come up to me and say I'm in the faith today because of you. And when I talked to him with a man was they had come to faith is Jewish followers of the Messiah, they come to faith, but then they were losing their faith because the Commissioner rabbis of the objections they encountered in the attacks. In the New Testament and in the attacks on the messianic prophecies and then they came across my books material and that was thank God we have the answers. Thank God we have the answers.

The current general manager of the New York Giants and hopefully there will be building a good long-term winning strategy. The general manager of the New York Giants former GM of Carolina Panthers. In fact, he was the GM when they went 15 and one of them to the Super Bowl.

Dave Gettleman. He is a solid Jewish believer a few years ago share his testimony publicly and I got to know him a little bit before that but he had started attending a messianic Jewish variation but had lots of questions he had lots of questions about Jesus being the real Messiah came to see a major debate I did with rubbish will attacks in New York City and it was on who really killed Jesus and in the identity Messiah and that was the turning point for him. That was the lightest questions were answered and after that he was sure that Yeshua was the Messiah, and he's been in the faith is a solid believer ever since. We hear this all the time by God's grace.

When I came to faith and 71 and then my dad had to meet with the local rabbi than the local rabbi had been meet with other rabbis and brilliant man and some very, very devoted and they challenge me in some challenge me to the core of my being and any really shook me in certain ways. I knew Jesus to change my life. But now it seemed all this evidence was against Iran is a God of what's when you and your truth is a loyal Jew.

I want to follow you and your truth, whatever the cost or consequences, and overwhelmingly through the Scriptures. First and foremost and then more study God made absolute clear to me that Jesus Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel, but I got so bombarded and so challenged by the rabbis in the counter, missionaries, and there is no material I didn't have the resources to go to that answer the questions I thought I can. I can't let someone else go through that and that's why God laid on my heart to start writing the apologetics materials first to strengthen Jewish believers and then secondly, to reach 20 believe. And thirdly for the benefit of the whole body. We continue to produce cutting-edge resources that are making differences in people's lives that are coming back to the faith or coming to the faith through these materials we have so much more that we want to do. We want to expand our Jewish outreach. So would you pray with me as I'm on my knees on my face of this week of seeking God and asking him for his blessing and to deepen us and sharpen us and make us everything he wants us to be to glorify him.

While we have breath. Would you believe God with me for supernatural breakthroughs for God to to give us even more cutting-edge wisdom and insight for an even greater anointing on the work were doing more and more is being translated into Hebrew and being released in Hebrew in various different settings. Internet TV other settings and and by God's grace. The material is is is is here to be used on many of you are super blessed bye-bye one for Israel. A tomboy leaving that if you have a Tom's book on answering Jewish objections to Christianity at the beginning he says it was my work that inspired him to do this so by God's grace were part of that so would you pray with us for supernatural breakthroughs and for supernatural funding. There are billions of dollars in People's Bank's bank accounts, trillions, with the amounts are there so much money that can be used for the kingdom. And that's were burning to do with it. That's where it goes. Money comes into this ministry.

It goes right back at you would be utterly amazed friends. You would be blown away if you saw how much we do with so few people and so little funds you'd be a menu glorify God with us. So were going for.

But would you believe God with us, for God to speak to those who have resources and want to see Israel save as he is uniquely positioned us for this hour. Would you believe God could you do that now. Just ask God for the resources to be released to help get things that we want to bring other team members on they can do ongoing Internet interaction chat rooms for seekers. We want to work with with of former ultra Orthodox Jew who was a follower of Yeshua devoted follower of Yeshua to give him outlet to get more materials out into within the language that specially reach the ultra-Orthodox we got a lot of plans envision and we know God's birth in this and we know. I know that God will save Israel and the God who saved me is the God will supply enough. I feel tremendous faith is of speaking. So would you agree with me. God release the funds for us to reach more and more of the lost sheep of the house of Israel and you she was name I know is going to do these faithful and if you're part of the answer. Awesome. Go to the website right now.

Asked Dr. Brown.org. Click on donate year-end tax deductible gift designated for Jewish ministry. We will know what to do. That will keep you posted.

We got funds to keep putting out videos demolishing that the lies and deception of one particular counter missionary rabbi.

We recorded the first six already, we've got a bunch more planned in and doubling the dozens of those, document providing funds for that. We are excited but we got a lot of other plans and I'm so excited to see what God is going to do and then further doors is going to open up for us to do more debates and a lot of things we talked about in ministries were working with on the front lines reaching religious Jews in Israel.

So thank you for praying about I just wife all wrote real faith as I pray that with you maybe did to. So God can do this because it is if you're part of it.

Awesome is a dollar or million dollars if you're part of it. Awesome. But your prayers are absolutely part of your faith is absently part. Okay, let's go over to twitter and let's see here on the start answering some questions that have been posted.

Don't post the Mallory solicited these.

This is from pineal, conservative, nationalist, that's the twitter handle are Jews by nature evil, or is it just secular Jews. I asked this because why have there been so many evil Jews who did inexplicable things like Wilhelm Reich and Karl Marx all you've got the question exactly wrong. How about our human beings by nature evil, or is it just Gentiles could think of the things done by Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin and Mao Tse Tung and Pol Pot and down the list we go all of them Gentile since a bizarre thing to think because you've got a handful of Jews who had world influence and and wicked hearts that somehow indicts all the Jews are all secular Jews want to make this argument for dental seven sexual revolution.

Weller is a German Jew okay how how about Alfred Kinsey and you Hefner the fathers of the sexual revolution in America. Both of them Gentile so I mean that it the answer is that usually everybody else you got kindhearted Jews and you got mean Jews you've got unit religious and nonreligious it just like everybody else I said just like everyone else, except more so, it seems that our our gifts are exaggerated. Weaknesses are exaggerated, but my view is that the Jewish people have been called by God to be world changers and to the extent, to the extent that we are in harmony with God be the Moses Ripoll we have a massive impact were out of harmony with God like a Karl Marx.

We have a massive impact, but negative. The former for good. The latter for bad. So that would be how it intersect with the question but just turn around and then say visit is all Gentiles learned right and what about religious Gentiles in Osama bin Laden. Okay, I mean we just we just go down the list cc what a bizarre question is Richards who is a Jew. My understanding is that you must have a Jewish mother and that your descendents of Esau called Edomites Jewish mother.

Notwithstanding the okay so in Jewish history, Jewish tradition has developed to say that your Jewish. If you have a Jewish mother and don't convert to another religion or some adjuster you juice if your Jewish mother.

But if you go all the way back to you so there's a such thing as Jewish bed right okay when when your you're talking about Isaac and Rebekah. This assists things Jewish.

The concept comes up later so biblically you could argue that it comes through the man, but to the father but ultimately as Judaism developed and and certainly within centuries after the time of Jesus, it began to be taught that the dissent was measured through the mother and that was based on Ezra Nehemiah when the Israelites married foreign women. When the divorce than they sent them away with the children so the thought being that the children of this form of themselves far less than the Jewish argument my understanding that if you are of Jewish descent through either your mother or your father and have a Jewish consciousness raising this to you that you can make an argument you are will be right back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire down by calling 866-34-TRUTH dear again is Dr. Michael Brown and I come to a fairly Thursday broadcast. We started the broadcast with a backwards reading of Romans 11 starting at the end of the chapter going backwards to see exactly what Paul meant when he said all Israel when he said all Israel be safe if you miss that sure to catch the beginning of the broadcast.

You can do it on our YouTube channel instructor Brown Facebook page Esther Brown, a website asked her to Brown.org or ever you get the podcast as we are on numerous platforms in my appreciation to every platform that carries the broadcast. Our goal is to reach as many people as possible with this message. So thank you and everyone listening on live radio always a great joy to be with you. I'm not taking calls today. This show is being aired as I'm away during a private prayer retreat so not taking my calls today, but I have solicited questions on twitter Jewish related rates. The early Jewish Thursday some things don't change your mom or praying right. Some things don't change. So we solicited these questions, but don't post that we really got these questions right. Jeff asked this explain Mac about. I've heard it's the reason why Middle Eastern Muslims are angry with Jews, yes or lack of in Arabic the catastrophe, the disaster is the way the Muslim world thinks of the birth of the modern state of Israel. So as the Jewish people worldwide are celebrating in May and May 1948 celebrating the birth of Israel, the Muslim world. This precious running nations are remembering it as the catastrophe, the disaster, so the Jewish mind. This is when God faithfully kept his promises restored us back to the land against all laws. Out of the ashes of the Holocaust of an overwhelming odds of surrounding nations going to wipe Israel out. The nation was formally established a cause for great rejoicing and immediately with the announcement of the modern state of Israel, about 800,000 Jews and all the surrounding Muslim lands were expelled by the Muslim countries, you are no longer welcome here. So this created a great crisis member this. This is not long after Holocaust just a few years after. So now these Jews in all these Muslim lands are homeless, while the vast majority moved Israel emigrate there and become part of the Jewish nation. Others settle in different parts the world.

Some go to American things like that. But the vast majority go to Israel what happened at the same time, roughly 600,000 Arabs who were living in the land fled because of the war.

Now some of them fled because the Muslim leadership said Canon can't distinguish between a Jew and Gentile, get out of there and and will destroy the, the, the Jewish people drive them into the sea, then come back to your homes, your lands and all of this, others fled because there was a war going on the surrounding our nation's attack and others fled because Israel is in the midst of war and and and is is given, drive out resistance of its our resistance can drive the masses of the driven out by pedal Lord. It let's just say this.

If the surrounding nations did not declare war if they accepted the two state solution that was put forward by the UN UN partition plan in 1947. Then those Arabs who stayed right there right they can stay and become part of the new state of Israel is a want to live there and and others, and in the lands that would be call Palestine, but in the Arab memory, the collective Muslim memory. Our memory this is unlocked by the great catastrophe when 600,000 Palestinians.

As I looked at were displaced from their homes through evil Israel 00 came and took their land and displace them and and now they been left as refugees because the surrounding Muslim nations that were not taking both make this just look bad for Israel so that's that's how it's perceived so as Jews are celebrating Muslims or morning dancing dad bear I hi Dr. Brown, I'd like to understand how the strangers and foreigners that joined the exodus were integrated into the people of Israel. Did they choose tribes or they just divided in.

Thank you and God bless.

Yes, so you do have the people that the Israelites did not drive out and and as you have you have those who left Egypt together with the people of Israel right a mixed multitude administered as the people of Israel came and took the land Joshua Judges recount that that they didn't conquer everyone in some cases the people just become servants among the people of Israel are disjointed in different ways beyond this information the text doesn't tell us, especially those coming out of Egypt after the Exodus. It's it doesn't tell us that the understanding would be that they just became incorporated into the larger people of Israel.

Now some sable.

They were the most disobedient.

They were the grumbles the complainers and a lot of them were killed by plagues, and judgments could be it could be but for sure at some point in time, they would've just become incorporated into the larger nation of Israel, they would have been converts in that regard to the God of Israel, just like someone to convert to Judaism today.

We don't have we don't have data hard data beyond was written Scripture you have net myths and traditions but nothing beyond was written Scripture so and that since your guess is as good as mine, but just don't read beyond was written right we don't have further information, let's just look for some more questions here and let's see. Kevin hello Dr. Brown, is there any difference between the Judea stick face today in the Judea stick faith in Jesus time is there any change to the concept of Messiah to purchase all yeah absolutely, absolutely.

Jewish tradition has grown and developed greatly, vastly, the vast majority of of all sacred Jewish literature Mishna Talmud midrash law codes 98% of it is all developed after the time of Jesus. Now traditional Judaism would say it's expanded, but it all goes back to Moses and and much of it was really no one knew she was day, but for example when you had the temple standing when you had a functioning priesthood when you had Jewish sovereignty in the land versus Jewish people scattered around the world versus no temple versus no functioning priesthood.

You have to have tons and tons of innovations of soul, some moments put it like this site. I can't find the exact quote, but I read it from James Parks great early church historian and he made the comment, which I'm paraphrasing that Judaism is no more the religion of the Old Testament than Catholicism is the religion of the New Testament. If you ask a Catholic what you do this this this this this is not in the Bible, they would say, always in harmony with Scripture, but as part of her church tradition that the church is also inspired like one of my rabbi friends said to me that frame tradition is like another book of the Bible moves it is authoritative. This is unwritten. The others are written in, or even something as simple as a Jewish man wearing a yarmulke traditional Jew, wearing a yarmulke you would not find a traditional Jew on the planet that does not cover said were were yarmulke and yet that practice would've been unknown in Jesus day. Now, whether men cover their head with turbines or with any kind of covering is is a separation or that which is Middle Eastern custom, etc. but in point of fact, many things in traditional Judaism would be unknown to previous generations because each new society situation is going to require for the laws and near you come into to a more industrialized agent coming to the modern digital age. In various things. What can we do can't we do we have so many changes thus far as the Messiah. Yes, that there was a a more clear developing of the picture of the Messiah that there was that there were many more views messianic views of the Messiah in the first century from a from a Warren King to increase the Messiah to different things so traditional Judaism codifies the idea more and clarifies it more outlook you have. All but 800 years after the time of Jesus that one of the leading rabbis of his day is is writing a letter clarifying certain things about messianic leadership in the 12th century of Moses Maimonides were were he's codifying and laying out systematically what beliefs are, was, there is a lot more speculation and diversity not heard. Traditional rabbis say that we had one view along the only the Messiah for the last 3500 years, the less untrue that that say a retro verdict view to take what's believed today and put it back on previous generations, Calvert departments for curricular touch on her given name to the imprecatory Psalms now now not all not anything that be be thought of coming out here. I'll give you this analogy when you're going to driver's ed. Is there a discussion about bombing Caliban in Afghanistan. What decided to driver's ed exactly why would Aaron be thought of of imprecatory Psalms, but with that have to do with with training someone and in scriptural passage and in certain basic Jewish concepts, etc. no wooden wouldn't come up at all you know during your driver's ed class.

What you learn about planting flowers in different climates in Florida. It's a what does that have to do a driver's ed. It would be that completely, utterly unrelated candy who makes the best commissions on fat all right to help you County on it help you. I've never been a knish eater, Jewish, and yeah I didn't always have Jewish food tastes by being fat is not who you want to be met.

Here I am 65 years old, no aches that will have. I do have a couple pains is because of this push to work out lifting the other day, but otherwise no aches and pains.

The sickness, the medication, fatigue, mind sharp, body healthy, by the grace of God. 65. Might my workout partner is a WWE wrestler over. We plan to do a video together. We got a plan for a video that Nancy reprinted to sedate you could do that of just hope I survive it. But by then anyone anyway yeah it's because God help me radically change my diet 66 and quarter years ago, and otherwise mouse 59 owes him weary. I had multiple headaches we click three headaches maybe more. Every single week and constant lower back pain and how to travel the breathing machine for sleep apnea.

Of course, use it at home.

My cholesterol was so good.

My blood pressure was high and all that. Think of it, the lower back pain.

Haven't had a headache and 6 1/4 years no more sleep apnea blood pressure, cholesterol just in wonderful order also want to recommend instead of the best commissions as the book Nancy and I wrote breaking the stronghold of food there you go. That's my Hanukkah Christmas gift to you. I encourage you to read the book, breaking the stronghold of food. Dr. Brown, if you really want to see me health center for free and know is if you don't have enough incentive to buy one out enough incentive to read it, let alone to act on it is one who is overweight to my life and 59 years a unhealthily until you man.

Grace God change is worth.

The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown.

Looking back, to thoroughly Jewish Thursday Michael Brown dear can continue answering your previously posted Jewish related twitter questions Jeff can you answer those Christians who do not believe the land still belongs to Israel to the Abraham a covenant. Also, can you comment on the reality that the legal boundaries actually far exceed the present national land boundaries of Israel. Number one, number one, it's it's challenging to get Christians to see some of the promises to Israel because of the idea that Walt now that Jesus is, all that stuff is passed and were just looking at eternity in spiritual things, of the physical and doesn't matter. There are obstacles to overcome, but the simple thing to do is is to start going through was written in the Old Testament and the start was like Psalm 105 and read it through. You see the relevant passages so okay, look, look at this.

Has God made himself clear. Is it possible God to make himself animal clear with theroom with Anna and Anna Denise am giving you the land of Canaan. Celestia Harrods jurists giving it CA Embassy under the law of Moses. If if he disobeyed you kicked out of the land. If you repent and come back and have repented simple was false. In Galatians 317 that the law which is given €400 for three years prior, sees me the promise which came 430 years prior to the law, but that cannot nullify the promise of promise comes first. The law comes after the law can't nullify the promise surfacing it backwards or so it will consider because again promise and and Romans nine says the promises still belong to the Jewish people in X3 19 following say that Messiah will remain in heaven ~time comes for the restoration of all things, that of which the prophets spoke wasn't because he spoke it was the restoration of the Jewish people to the land or just say it it's it's a promise. God gave doesn't guarantee individual salvation was promise God gave, and he keeps it CA about. But what about cursory disobedience right was got a lot of mercy but is that the whole thing relearned to the cross that God has mercy on whom he has mercy and in was a say in Ezekiel 36 is the Jewish people were exiled in Babylon causes and I bring you back will bring you back. Even though your unbelief but my name is being blessed the God of Israel looks like a weak and powerless God. What's wrong with the God of Israel.

So for my namesake and bring you back yeah laid out like that. My Booker hands were stained with blood will really help with that as well or just check out our short videos got a sinus that will help his God designed us to find a YouTube channel or go to Esther to Brown.org/consider this now the legal boundaries that God ultimately promise in Genesis 15, and in other places for exceed the present national land boundaries of Israel. We may not see those full legal boundaries until the Messiah returns. Another was none of this is by merit. This is all by grace, God is not obligated to give the full legal boundaries as if there was full obedience and national belief in the Messiah right so that may come in the future that it's nothing to it to fight a war over right now because this is all by grace and it's for God's reputation and God's honor. Let's see. Scroll down answered that answered that Chuck leave off the name of that will put that one on the screen of but this guy was called Joe. Should Christians observe the feast days. Not a legalistic way not is if they are required to, but rather if it helps them feel in solidarity with the Jewish people. If they say hey God gave us these games, Israel never rescinded them.

Why not enjoy them and if you can do them, recognizing their prophetic meaning recognizing their prophetic meaning in Yeshua from the cross to the to his return.

Then all the more. Is there meaning in them. If you do that thinking I will be more spiritual if a more Jewish wrong. If you do it, thinking God is required me to keep. This is one of his commandments wrong. If you do the saying hey, we're Gentile Christians who are part of the larger commonwealth of Israel. This is all part of our joint heritage.

Why not. God bless you wonderful if you do is for your church.

If you do it within a messianic congregation wonderful great or the community's special event that you have were different groups come together great wonderful now first quickens five close writing to the Gentile believers there and Steinmetz in corruption in their midst.

And don't you know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump right makes a common little East coast. So all the donor us, and then he says you will get get rid of the old yeast take on the new yeast of them that the new life in the Messiah, and then he says let us therefore keep the passive Messiah or passer. Mayor Pastor blemished the sacrifice was let us therefore keep the feast. Now some would say he really meant that literally, let's keep the Passover and he was exerting Gentile believers to do that but since that's the only such reference in the New Testament. In that regard. Since we have no record of the early church.

Gentile believers feeling a sense of obligation to keep the all of the Jewish feast days and and since elsewhere Paul warns against a Gentile try to take on Jewish identity and just a couple chapters later the seventh chapter beginning in verse 17 says a if you call me a call to the Messiah. If you save if if your call circumcised. Don't become uncircumcised typical uncircumcised overcome circumcised masking document cards commandments which he means is his moral commandments always called us to live his name and put circumcision in that category there. Interesting. Interestingly enough, so when comes to salvation. These things are not essential but is also possible. Paul is speaking metaphorically because of dealing with the spiritual situation and say hey let's let's do this in a spiritual way. Let's see if there any other questions that were posted. Twitter skin to give it one more shot so I can post out note know of because this is his being a recorded in advance during the special season of just getting away for a week so is do we get everyone to check one more time Kevin Talbot County Sheriff dancing dad bear year we got that Jeff Richards.

Conservative and no one in the home. He just called Joe when I tell people post now and they really took it seriously. So I preaches normally we just get a flood is so long that bothered me about the time we go to recorded you the show we can get to.

Maybe the first arrow Tanner 15/30 or 50 or hundred but let me tell you why love questions so much and I love to be insensitive, so I had mentor groups for years, every third year students in a ministry school or others. I've I've in Otago so my heart shared things then basis that Herod have any questions. I love environment where questions are asked and I think one reason is that I love to explore things with people together that many times they don't have an outlet.

Many of the circles ran. I talked last week with Jason Jimenez about that is labor challenging conversations the church needs to have that many Christian environments. She stifled lucky can happen with any religious group. I know Jews today used to be ultra-Orthodox and were not there now secular and Jews today used to be ultra-Orthodox enough hours to be sure, but what they had in common was at questions and they were allowed to ask their questions that they had questions and and the they struggle with certain things and they they asked the rabbi are they asked the priesthood asked the pastor and and they got they got pushed down. So I think it's really important that we have an environment where people can ask questions were where the they are able to to get their curiosity satisfy for their probing questions satisfied, so it has all different things and and then just for whatever reason I feel a grace to answer your question, so keep them coming.

And feel free if if you've got in-depth questions may be either a Jewish person and you're really struggling with questions about Jesus being the real Messiah. Maybe your Christian and you discard Jewish related questions and you can call in on Thursday will write to a website ago asked Dr. Brown that are you asking asking dear Brenda, there's a link to contact us and we have one dammit dedicated team member, a Russian Israeli Jew with a PhD in Old Testament and one of the things that he does he teach as many classes and so on for different schools but he answers all of our Jewish related questions and every answer to them. I get copied on so I see all the questions that are coming in and the answers he's providing.

So if you have those questions where we're here to serve you and and for those who give in support our ministry to help us do this to.

This enables us to be a resource for the body.

This lot of error. There's a lot of misunderstanding of people swing from the that the one extreme of Jew hatred to the other extreme of of wannabe Judy is know that the Gentiles think after become Jews or or from Jewish rejection. You know, there's nothing no promises for the Jewish people think of. I just get married you like real rub, therefore, had I get a like a magic miracle you're just so or if I could just say something in Hebrew. They liked all everybody will be healed.

So if we can help get people away from extremes of the reject replacement theology and the view that God is finished with the Jewish people as a whole is in no promises that remain for the nation as a whole. This is confusing safe get the notion that one theology without hyper precedential eyeglasses become a Gaylord manager to begin focus on you Sheila Harper Jews and Gentiles
