Was Jesus a Christian?

My guest today says that Jesus was non-Christian was a mean stage for the line of fire with your host activist, 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, like always 866-34-TRUTH that's 866-34-TRUTH your again is Dr. Michael Brown that Jesus was a Christian. What what exactly does that mean he's the Christ. After all, is that making the preeminent Christian well this is Michael Brown. Welcome to the line of fire broadcast. It is thoroughly Jewish Thursday.

That means the phone lines are open for you Jewish related questions of any kind could be about Israel today in the elections to be Hebrew language question could be a question about Jewish tradition, 866348784 that is 866-34-TRUTH any Jewish related question of any kind.

Also be letting you know more details about our next tour to Israel. Now is the time to sign up.

In his May 2020, which will be here before you know it. My guess God bulk we have been friends since 1993 we been working together closely since 1996 and Scott is looking amazingly fit will have to see will work out together and see… Outward appearance. Are you looking for sharp yet which you just come back from Scott. I just came back from Israel and Greece. And I feel great and I'm thrilled to be here.

Thanks so much for having me on. Is it your first time Greece first time in Greece and bro I'm telling you it's an eye-opening thing you know you walk where Jesus walks in Israel and then you go to Greece scene where Paul was imprisoned in Philippi ditches really did something for me it's it's quite remarkable, and it's something that I'm really looking forward to pursuing in the near future with groups going over with me so so friends will tell you about or Israel tour in 2020, and little while but Scott, you have written your first book I the joy of writing a forward to it, our mutual friend and colleague Bob Gladstone helped write the book in terms of checking biblical content on every level. So it's it's a really well done book but with a title that some would find provocative some would find offensive, but is absolutely undoubtedly true. The title of your book. Jesus was not a Christian so Scott tell what some of the title what you mean well. Interestingly, I remember speaking at our church a number of years ago fire church and I called you the night before I spoke. Actually, I texted you bro and I said I'm feel like I'm supposed to make a statement in my message. Do you think this is can it be okay. I said would you agree with me that Jesus is not a Christian. I think your response to me bro was something like he wasn't a Christian. It was no such thing as Christianity. When he walked the face of the earth, so I made that statement that day and then as I was writing this book. I really, really wrestled with the title affect my wife didn't like the title and I wouldn't of titled this unless she firmly was in in agreement with me that we should title it because it's a little bit offensive. I got an email three weeks ago from an older gentleman in Mobile, Alabama, who's known me for years and that I'm so so sorry I will not buy your book because the title is disgraceful and I just you know when he said that I just really responded very, very nicely, and I told him I said, here's the here's the facts. When Jesus came he was born into a Jewish home. He lived a Jewish life. He was called a Rabbi. He died King of the Jews he's coming back as the lion of the tribe of Judah. Everything about our Messiah is Jewish and there was no such thing as Christians and you yourself say how many how many times was the work Christian even used in the book of acts three times twice twice and asked three times the whole New Testament three times in the whole New Testament we listen to somebody comes up to me and says Scott are you a Christian.

I'm in a say well I'm a follower of Jesus, yes, I'm a Christian. But the fact of the matter is, is Kristi what Christianity has done to Jesus as the Jewish Messiah over history is really incredible. I mean I would venture to say if you just did a Google search right now for images of Jesus, you have very few, if any, showing him to be a Jewish man him and he sees the look more like a Catholic figure, but what you talked about Greece. I was just in Greece and saw all these churches where there are images of Jesus and bro, he does look anything like a Jewish man so that the purpose of my book was really to get people to open up their hearts and minds to the fact that we have a Jewish Messiah that he came for the lost sheep of the house of Israel and now we as the church, a Jew and Gentile alike who love and serve our Messiah have a debt to Israel and that debt is we are called to be a light to the nations and to provoke Israel to jealousy. That's really the heart of why) or are you saying in some way that Jewish followers of Jesus are superior to Gentile followers of Jesus are that it's it's sinful to identify as a Christian is that what you're saying or implying that's that's a great question know is my factum saying the exact opposite of that. When God looks down.

He doesn't see Scott, the Jew and Joe the Gentile.

He ceased to Scott, the Jew and his wife Beth the Arab that's right that's that's it that's even better. He sees his kids we been grafted into a tree Jew and Gentile alike into the olive tree, and now were sons and daughters of the Messiah, God has a purpose for the Jewish people. He's got a purpose for the people who were not born in Jewish homes, Christians really Christians or poor people who follow the Lord who were not born into Jewish homes have a call on their life. The church of the Messiah has a call Jewish people are not higher than non-Jewish people as a matter of fact, I think that God chose the Jewish people to bring the light of the nations into the world and now he's calling on the church.

Jew and Gentile alike to bring the light of the nations back to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. So I just want our our listeners and viewers to think about something for a minute. Words can change in meaning over period of time you write so if you go back to the Trump campaign and Hillary Clinton referenced a basket of deplorable's the followers of Donald Trump. So now deplorable's furthered the Trump followers is is a word of honor. Yeah, we are the deplorable, so it it went from being a badge of dishonor to be a badge of honor simply in a matter of days, a matter of minutes.

Really, the people sets us where the deplorable day before that you wouldn't say I'm a deplorable person now is like a deplorable and that's a badge of honor. I just use it as a little little example so and in the days of Jesus. The term Christian didn't exist, that the followers of Jesus, she recognized him as Mashita Messiah right and then in that the years that followed. It was it was hard for the Jewish followers of Jesus draws this message goes to the Gentiles to when it started to happen.

Acts 11 you have a community of Jews and Gentiles worshiping together.

The God of Israel, and follow the Messiah of Israel.

They they had no name for that they had no word for that, and the community and apparently a derogatory way started to call them Christians.

In fact, some manuscripts say Kristi ends that there are some of the ancient testimony skews that it was Christos Chris Doss what he didn't even know it meant and so they would just like these Christ guys it would be like, no bulky ends in the nose is on the Scott voter Vulcans or brown lights or something. That's all it meant it did mean you wanted Jew anymore. It's just that you're following this guy you want you want to his then over the centuries it took on certain meaning set up a Jewish person says I'm a Christian is like an owner, Jew, oh so that major Catholic 70 Greek Orthodox is that many Protestant does that mean you agree with the Crusades. Does that mean to admit what is it actually mean the meaning is changed so dramatically that, for example, if you're in Israel and you tell the person you're Christian that mean specifically your Catholic or Greek Orthodox right is right really means and you're not Jewish. If you send the who didn't she see I'm a messianic Jew managed of them is all you're a Jew who believes that Jesus is the Messiah, so Scott walk us through your book. Jesus was not a Christian. It's laid out systematically, clearly, very, very readable just one of our common friends, a pastor sent and unbelievably glowing review of the most amazing reviews of a book I've ever read just blown away by it and you and Pam to do it and actually read it is that it actually read in detail, but a Scott take us through Jesus was on the Christian go go through the chapters and first by just want to say this brought this book wouldn't be in my hands. If it wasn't for your influence on my life really traveling around the world together and in sitting in meetings where you would teach on the topic of Israel and God's purposes for Israel never really meant anything to me until God touch my heart. But after after that happened after that revelation I really feel like so much of what you've sown into me is is borne out in the pages of this book. So the fact that you wrote the forward to.

This is so wonderfully amazing to me.

So thank you for that.

The book it's it's very easy to read. You could probably read this book in one sitting. People have done it.

There's a nine chapters the first Chapter simply entitled Jesus was not a Christian. Some of the things that were talking about his disciples had Jewish names. They were Jewish. All of the early believers were Jewish or just simply talks about you saying that Peter didn't wear across Peter did not wicker nothing wrong with that. That is right but yeah I mean you yourself you know when when you read the Jewish New Testament and you read the names of the disciples themselves. That alone gives you an indication like weight may be our religion does have something to do with the Hebraic roots of the faith I talk about God who had a covenant love and historic love with his people Israel long before Yeshua.

Jesus came he made promises to Israel that that are still today.

In fact, as as as vitally important today as they were when he made them 3500 years ago we talk about God as a covenant keeping God. The fact that when he makes a promise he keeps it to a thousand generations of those promises to Israel are as valid today as they were when he made them, and he's looking for us the church to be the instrument of his glory where Israel is concerned and then the final or three of the last four chapters are really not the favorite part of my book is entitled the God who gives life to the dead and I just cannot just read a quick paragraph in this. I love it when our threesome is on but other than that you taught me well.

There there is a pattern throughout Scripture, we cannot ignore it is undeniable and indisputable, like a DNA code embedded into the cells of salvation history.

It holds a message of profound hope for all believers. But, it especially holds a message of hope for Israel, God raises the dead, over and over. This pattern appears in the Bible from creation to judgment and everywhere in between. It's sheer consistency demands our attention and inspires our faith. We must allow God's strategy of resurrection to touch our hearts if we do not we will fail to grasp his heart for Israel. His future intentions for Israel and our calling into his plan for Israel throughout Scripture, God gives life to the dead, and in the same way that we who were once dead are now alive in Messiah Jesus, so also Israel that is really living apart from God. Right now, bro. The Bible says one day all Israel shall be saved and it's just remarkable thing to make me think about this God calls himself, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. All of those patriarchs of our faith were married to women who were incapable of bearing children, Isaacs wife Jacobs wife. All of these wounds that were dead produce life that eventually produce the Messiah. That's kind of a remarkable thing friends Israel salvation that is tremendously right phone lines are open. If you have a Jewish related question 866-348-7884.

The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire your right now in the very sacred time code you mean Nora in the days of awe on the typical calendar.

Those words are not found in the Bible, but this is develop a Jewish tradition that between the blowing of the shofar.

The trumpet blasts in the first day of the seventh month, up until the 10th day, Yom Kippur, the day of atonement is a day of testing and soul-searching and repentance, so it's a great time to pray for Jewish people around the world they be deeply convicted of their sins is only the Holy Spirit can convict that they would realize even with all their praying and crying out for mercy on young people or the day of atonement that they cannot be saved outside of Messiah's blood that they would turn to him and be saved. My guess Scott Voelker, author of the book. Jesus was not a Christian is not a slam on Christians like the son of the attack on Christian faith in the same let's remember Jesus for sure what his roots, who he is and then how the body can come together for the salvation of Israel. Scott, you mentioned the Jewish New Testament David Stern's rendering Matthew chapter 10 verse two. These are the names of the 12 emissaries right 12 apostles right 12 emissaries first. Shimon called jefe, and Andrew his brother Jacob been solved.

I know cut on his brother Philip and Bartol, my Oma and message Yahoo.

The tax collector Jacob are hellfire and tie-dye Shimon zealot and Yehuda from creosote who betrayed him unbelievable look.

There is a guy that's way out totally bizarre teaching. King James only guy that claims it would be saved. You have to say the name Jesus. And we laugh, but it's it's that pathetic if you if you said James's he wouldn't know who you are talking about. He said Yeshua it was turned around you and if you said Mary his mother with the turnaround scenario. She was not on the sea have to use those names today right, it's just to remember the Jewish womb out of which this faith was birthed and because Jesus is the Messiah of Israel. He is therefore the Savior of the world right Scott. Why should Joe Christian Jane Christian raising their family seeking to live a godly life.

They they are homeschooling their kids working hard in their jobs. Faithful attending your church. They they give to world missions. They seek to be a blessing in their neighborhood. Why in the world.

Should they care about is religion and the father plays have a heart for missions. There maybe not any Jews or lodges. Their community why in the world. Should they can't just any other burden on top of them. Here's a remarkable thing bro I was born a Jew, myself.

I am a follower of Yeshua, Jesus, the Jewish Messiah and the Messiah of the world, yet I could have cared less about Israel and God's heart for Israel so I wouldn't blame anybody if they currently don't have a quote unquote burden for Israel. But when we really look at Scriptures with an open heart.

When we see that God still loves Israel that Jesus loves Israel that he wept over Jerusalem that he's not coming back until Israel welcomes him back shortly. We ourselves must be burdened like you looking for followers of Jesus Yeshua the Messiah we ought to care about the things that he cares about. He cares about all the nations of the world he told his disciples as emissaries go into all the world and preach the gospel, but he also prioritized Israel. He came only for the lost sheep of the house of Israel. You know, when Paul Rabbi Saul shout little had a revelation of Yeshua.

Jesus is the Messiah, he went to the Jewish synagogues. First, it was remarkable to me. Walking throughout Greece and going into some of these these places where he went to the synagogue's first Romans 116 says I'm not ashamed of the gospel is the power of God to salvation to all those who believe, to the Jew first, and you know that that word first is very, very interesting. I'm reminded of seek ye first the kingdom of God when we prioritize the kingdom then everything else falls into place if the kingdom is just something we think about after we do everything else. It's it makes Christianity and makes our relationship with God a sham if the gospel is not for the Jew first. It's not for the for the world at all. Therefore, as believers in Jesus. If we want to carry an apostolic heart like the apostle Paul did we have to have a desire to see Israel saved and whether or not we meet a Jew face-to-face in our life. That's almost irrelevant.

We need to carry God's heart for those people because until they bow their knee to Messiah. He's not returning God and our friends.

You have a Jewish related question 866-348-7884.

In a moment I want to tell you few special things about our trip to Israel coming up this May we got one bus filled in the process of building second.

That's all were taken to buses so it's intimate it special to Mason triple to more about that in the moment. For first to the phones in Richmond, Virginia Dustin, thanks for calling the line of fire ALU that outgrow going very well, thank you's are a proper, yellow panel by mind daily or just recommended a fellow who are not bivariate herself with thanks for listening in that you know the person that they were a Christian, but they were all asked might be all you Catholic are you person believe in the crusade I was questioning I was a little confused. What did you mean by specifically if a person believed in the state yeah II consider that more clearly so thanks for asking for clarification when a Jewish person learns church history religious Jew. They only learn the really bad parts. They learn about hateful things like John Chrysostom in 386 387 saying that the synagogue is worse than a brothel in all the Jews collectively are are guilty of the death of Christ or they think of the Crusader armies marching through Europe in 1096 and adopting the slogan killer Jew and save your soul. Or they think of Martin Luther writing in 1523, that Jews the rabbi should be forbidden to teach under penalty of death in their synagogues should be set on fire or they think somehow that there is a connection between Christianity and the Holocaust because the Nazis utilize the writings of Chrysostom and the writings of of Luther to persecute Jews so when you say I'm a Christian too many Jewish person that's with a here right that that you're part of this ugly bloodied church history, as opposed to what you mean is, I'm a follower of Jesus. My life is been changed. I believe the Bible to be God's word. Jesus is my Lord and my Savior and really have no connection to some of those of the parts of church history's that's what I meant to say when Jewish person here's Christian. It can mean different things to them and often something that is the opposite of what we actually mean archipelago operated a great letter about a lot of excellent well thank you Dustin and hey Dustin, you did something that some of my listeners have not done in in over 11 years of daily radio which is call insert your first time listener, first time caller and got right through. I thank you sir appreciated 866-34-TRUTH Scott you have been to Israel now. How many times I have been on 34 tours that I've been responsible for leading and have you been to Israel. Other times outside of a tour just a few other times speaking over there one time with you, actually was my very very first time Israel are alright so I've been out of the country overseas maybe 200 times in a vintage India 26, three times a been to Italy. 26 times in 26 triggers basically that the India but you beat me out to one nation unbeliever is and you've done it just in the last few years really let you 10 years roughly yellow 2005 was my first trip, but really the last 10 years is when I did most of the traveling there are and you 1034 tours 34 torso or not, you must dread do they must be deadly boring flow. Would you believe that not only do I not dread them, but I look forward to them and here's why bro it's because every trip that we bring over there lives are touched, lives are changed when people see not only the amazing sites in Israel.

But when they see the believers that the fulfillment of prophecy right now in the land of Israel were God is not only bringing back his people to Israel but they're getting saved in their there sharing the gospel. Arab and Jew alike in the land of Israel. It is remarkable and I'm getting enough I just got back last two nights ago from Israel and Greece just got an email yesterday from somebody who is on her trip. She said her life is change, never to be the same. So not only do I not dread going, but I anticipate because I know that everyone who comes with us. The logic and change. Not because I'm a great tour leader, but because this is the land that God chose for his people and he loves it and is it a highly political tour were were you you talk about Israel's supremacy in the evil Palestinians and isn't that what you do know know not only do we not do that but we shy away from that. Not because politics are bad, but I really believe that if we can go over and have a biblical paradigm of how God feels about Israel were knocking to come back hating the Palestinians working to come back. Loving them were to come back loving the nations that surround Israel who are their enemies and praying for them and it's really remarkable to see that former enemies of Israel.

Former Muslims who were enemies of Israel. Having revelation of Jesus as Messiah and now embracing Israel's remarkable it is in the eye. I was talking to some folks involved with Muslim evangelism and most missions work around the world and they were saying. It's absolutely remarkable when these muscles made him radical.

When I get saved in the Middle East and in northern Africa and other countries. They become great lovers of Israel and the Jewish people I met an Egyptian man devout Christian, former terrorist, and he said he was is flying to Israel and he often doesn't use an extra unorthodox Jew, and they get began to talk and no thousands what you do so used to kill Jews for living hungrily. That's 27. Obviously the guys I verified that with any shares the gospel. He is more passionate about Israel and the Jewish people, then I am.

It's only remarkable, but when you have God's heart. You have his heart for the Jewish people. The Israelis for the Palestinians you have his heart for the Muslim world is not you love the one and hate the other. But you don't think of this. Think of playing your favorite song for someone there hearing it for the first time you never get bored especially when like wow that's right a great song so you go to Israel. I am amazed now as we go on tour number four. I'm amazed every trip. I'm amazed to see the impact I think is traveling all the time. I'm constantly running into people run different tours. There is still excited. Three years later, four years later two years later you're still excited about what time are we coming it's the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown of the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown, welcome to the Jewish state. 866-34-TRUTH can I tell you something really interesting as a city with my guest. Your friend long time colleague Scott volt from the heart as I have done videos we have about 2000 videos on the Dr. Brown YouTube channel on average the likes versus dislikes thumbs-up for systems that is like 95%, 90% thumbs-up versus thumbs down in this house because most of the people that are phony on the channel are people who agree in and then discuss the disagreement we get the nastiest, ugliest comments and post literally day and night, sometimes by the minute. It just comes with being on publican settings and addressing controversial issues, but there are a few videos where the thumbs down are more than the thumbs up. It's just a handful, you know which ones they are. They're the ones where we call out Christian anti-Semitism. We expose the anti-Semitism save of Rick Wiles in true news or of of a Michael Joan Cervone Benjamin, we expose that over me sex it set the record straight about the no hide laws or something like that or explain the truth about the Talmud as as people who do not follow the Tomo to believe the time of the just sit by the way that's not true about atomic so the spirit of anti-Semitism lives on today.

Even right within the church. If you have a Jewish related question 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 7884 Scott have you found that as people make this trip to Israel that God does something supernatural in their hearts where their hearts break for the lost sheep of the house of Israel, or they have a fresh perspective of of God's heart towards Israel because Jews like everybody else I said user like anybody else except more so well and and three of our good qualities in our bed quality. Sometimes an exaggerated form, but what will you make of that.

In terms of what happens in someone's heart and requests anti-Semitism. It's a great question.

I'm reminded of one of the most amazing things that I've seen happen on a trip to Israel. We were there with a bunch of young millennial's and one gal in particular was very very liberal in her thinking, and she after the first night we were there we were sitting together at dinner and she said I think that there's way too much of an emphasis on Israel. I don't understand why we should support Israel. I think that you have an agenda in bringing us here and I just said listen why don't let's talk at the end of the trip, Mike. The next day were on a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee and right after our first break we the music that came in was hop on Aguila. Do you wouldn't. I don't literally know what have an Aguila means it's it's it's something about praise. It's it's it's like a reason what you think I might know you might know kill God and give it to me. It's come, let us rejoice, let us rejoice. She had no idea in the middle of the boat ride.

This is after really coming at me the night before she walks over to me and she says these words mean and I I said it's it's a song about praise that the people of Israel thanking God for being back in their land and thanking God and all of a sudden this person who was against Israel. Just the night before starts crying. She says I don't know what happens to me this doesn't happen to me I can't understand it and bro, I could've opened the Bible.

I could've tried to pointer to Scripture after Scripture after Scripture with regard to God's heart for Israel, but when God just breaks in with the revelation there's nothing, nothing that compares that's icy bro, I see that when people come if their hearts are open to God he's going to open up their hearts to Israel, and it doesn't mean that when you have your heart open to Israel that it's close to the Palestinians as a matter fact, when your heart is open to Israel.

It's gonna be open to the Palestinians. It's in a be open to the surrounding Arab nations who are currently enemies of Israel. If you somehow something happens. Being in the land. Something happens you you literally walk where Jesus will reap you look at programs in the end of the world. What will happen. The right to she will return to this something about it and look.

I remember the first tour is the looks of the people and be baptized in the River Jordan. Some of the ground. It's hokey, we're both ends, hokey, but that is where my favorite times of the current. It is sacred.

It is amazing and after the last trip that night because each night I'm with you I I teach at certain key places on the tour because there's there's a tour guide amazing to regard job, one on each bus they do an amazing job you love them so there give you all the information then at certain key places. I'll be there to do teaching. Then we have dinner together. You know, meet at different tables, each site and then every night you can join me if you want Q&A drum is a dual radio show. But this last time after the water baptisms I taught about following Yeshua by life and by death. It was sacred it was absolutely sacred.

So friends literally, there is limited space, we are in the process of filling out the second bus now, so now's the time to sign up, go to asked Dr. Brown.org as Katie or Brown.org. You see, right on the homepage or banner holy fire in the holy land. May 11 to May 20. All right regular go to the phones.

I will start in Dallas with Jeff. Welcome to the line of fire. Good afternoon Brown and Scott Jacob and Israel iteratively contemplating it to GoToMeeting place, but the question I have is dealing with the Romans 1125, where to Israel have experienced Harding in part until Kimberly jumped out, then and get your take a meta-context with your theology of technology and what we want to prioritize. Therefore, the evangelizing of Gentiles over Israel. If the fullness of Israel, not cannot materialize until you little to the Gentiles comes in so just to get your thoughts. Yeah, great, great question. And thanks for the. The second to give our thoughts about Israel, so let me ask you question what if people did that and said we better just reach the Gentiles first and no one share the gospel with Mike Brown, a Jewish teenager you know I think it's a good question.

II would say that the related interstate Nader shouldn't be any territory prior party towards you know, Jew or Gentile, that you not of the out of the abundance of a heart that we go when you share the gospel with those with whom God places in about no matter what they are.

The one on one central said what his uncle said Romans 116 that the gospel is to the Jew first and also for the Gentile. Some people try to say he just met historically but you can make a very strong argument just like uses that exact terminology in Romans to the judgment will come first in the Jew than the Gentile blessing will come first, of the Jew than the Gentile unexplained like this. Jeff obviously we have to have a heart for both.

So for example we have grads from our school all around the world a handful are in Israel. The great majority of them or all around the world sharing the gospel with the nation's obviousness just a numbers thing. There is no 7 1/2 billion people on the planet of which may be 15 million are Jews. There should be an understanding that this gospel is for the Jew first that it's the message of the Jewish Messiah because most of the church has forgotten that most of the church fails to pray for the salvation of Israel and and fails to think okay.

We should always be involved if we live Jewish people our community. We should be sowing into Jewish outreach and looking for that what we know at the same time so so Jewish people coming to faith is always, according to God's heart and always has an important role in the body at the same time we understand that the fullness of the Gentiles has to come in both in terms of number in terms of spiritual work.

So world missions. This gospel of the kingdom being preached in all nations than the end coming that should be very, very high priority as well so we can do both at the same time we can say let's make sure were giving Patricia outreach and praying for the salvation of the Jewish people understanding that each ones, depend on the other.

The salvation of the nations the fullness of the nations provokes Israel to jealousy Israel crying out to the Messiah brings the Lord back. So where each was like a monster laundry review so it's it's a both and thing if you can hear it like that. All right I would agree great, but thank you for the question and your heart and if you absolutely get what 86634 let's go to Valerie in what a Beautiful Pl., Bountiful, UT Scott, have you heard of Bountiful, Utah before know that I want to visit yeah is is it bountiful bottle as I I think we got a call from Bountiful once before.

I'm sure you hear this all the time.

That is actually bountiful in bountiful Utah blackberry sleep sweetie aren't things that are not late morning territory got it all right and will hopefully you are being bountiful and the blessing of the Lord just go ahead Valerie yet. I wanted thank you. Why you need to and I would very excited about learning about your child.

I think that all the time back I downloaded happening when that's not bad. Network on any outdoor and non-able to look at the home, not in my car now and I think your opening statement about Eric but Journal it on. I bet it will not be Inc. or engineering.

I didn't come a long way. I bought it like that at eight bad here now beginning to understand the difference between the divine movement and the actual Israel.

I did notice that about him.

None of them and online journalists are beginning to do that.

Where in the beginning they were just like hacking that you make. And I only get the agreement. I always played a prank begin typing the ear about art in the Gentile and bank you know one thing that I think I want to get your input on their commedia talk about Maureen Beecher coming at and about what Revelation that's about the synagogue and that they think they are gay but they are not so soon Valerie I'm I'm I'm address that many many times.

If you go to the website asked her to Brown.org ask a your Brown.org you'll see where I've just just type in synagogue go to Esther to Brown.org ask your Brown.org typing synagogue and you'll see video come up about the synagogue of Satan.

In short relation to non-revolution 39 Jesus is speaking about people who are opposing the gospel from being preached and he says they claim to be Jews and are not so one possible is not Jews all there were Gentiles claim to be Jews were not just like early in Revelation 2 he speaks of those who claim to be apostles and were not so could be people falsely claiming to be Jews and this is the really synagogue of Satan and and they are rebuked by him proposing the gospel or they could be Jews because they are opposing the gospel are acting like the devil's children are therefore synagogue of Satan. It's it's just a strong prophetic review gets us into all this is safe for all Jews, Jesus is saying by the way, the scientist just says that the Zionist movement and we believe God promised so we are scientists.

Thank you. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 6643 here again is Dr. Michael Brown will not amazing blessing to see by the way own Benjamin conservative comedian was come out with a very strong anti-Semitic statements in recent months, and then his spin on head on with him what you Michael Jones who is a Catholic anti-Semite. I would love to know that there's change in that he's changing his position of the wonderful he's refuse to dialogue with me, sure. Have me on his butt on that aware of any evidence to that effect. Scott what you make of of anti-Semitism city were Scott folk's new book, his first book his best book of Esther is never the best so far you've written best yeah so Jesus is not a Christian, is the name of the book. It's a great read your fun and eye-opening and practical as well. Scott, what do you make of the spirit of anti-Semitism. Why do you think there is an unusual hatred of the Jewish people worldwide.

The remarkable I think you can trace it back to the Garden of Eden, bro. When when Adam and he partook of the fruit. God made a promise and actually prophesied over the serpent that one was coming in Genesis 3. He prophesied that one was going to come that would crush his head from that time on, God was looking for a people through whom Messiah could be birth and he found Abraham back then. His name was Abram. He found Abram and made a promise to Abram that through Abram seed all the nations of the earth would be blessed. So if Satan knew that one was coming that was going to crush his head and that it was going to come through the seed of Abraham. No wonder there's been a diabolical plot to wipe Israel off the map from Israel's inception and it's diabolical because there's no human understanding. There's no human way of even trying to figure out why such a vitriolic hatred can be for so many centuries you call it the longest hatred and on on the referral.

Or maybe you borrowed that but it's it's the longest what tell me what you say about you so so Ed refinery Color. A refinery refers to it as the world's longest hatred.

It's also the world's most irrational hatred. It's the world's most widespread hate with hatred and one with a sustained violence which is unique over this period of time. By the way Scott, you have the new addition of overhead to stay with but I don't. But if you sign one for me.

I would gladly tie will gladly site in of the assignments more expensive is awesome but know today for you and your positive thing yet so. But seriously, we've updated the book and John Scott.

It was drawing from it updated genuinely jarring because things I had read about in the past I was the writing about happening while today.

Shocking, even bloodcurdling. So the new edition of our hands are stained with blood alive.

I believe will be a must read a real eye-opener for and especially if you don't understand God's heart for Israel. What's the right heel and the church and Israel. You find the book to be a real eye-opener limit me to question Scott from Melody. She said I'm a Gentile been in ministry for 25 years from cleaning churches to teaching youth and adults past with my husband speak at women's conferences.

I'm so angry. Your sister in Scripture, just in front of the Christian Bibles have errors in translation, especially Hebrew. I cannot find if I was correct Hebrew and Greek translations like the Pentateuch with rebel issues in the New Testament which a messianic rabbi would use a muscle or I can. There's a gold mine of facts that can help to increase the kingdom of God please tell me where in which Bob will be the most accurate translation appreciate anything you can do Scott. I know a lot of people feel like the been lied to deceive the fact of the matter is major Christian translations or are fine renderings, and so I people trying to cover something up, but if you want something that will ring more true in terms of how things would've sounded or felt the first century then you know it's about the letter of shakeup versus letter of James.

It's just a little bit of a remind it if if a rabbi and Orthodox rabbis studying the Pentateuch. Their study Hebrew within their study it in the light of rabbinic tradition which adds all kinds of extra things and understandings to it just to get a bottle of the tree of life. I will go throughout your your Christian translations as if they're evil or bad running them enjoy being enriched in and grow from it. But if you want something that'll give you a bit more for messianic perspective as a Jewish perspective, the tree of life version TLV was on the committee that worked on that the TLV tree of life version. I think will be just what your looking for.

Okay, let's go to Jim in mineral Wells, Texas. Welcome to the line of fire. I enjoyed your program for about a year now will thank you been able to pick it up. Got a question about the year there been think about the Jewish kingdom whether on the Internet thing that during the Carolinian.

Where after Markel Gerald Mark Nolan, Charlemagne recaptured the better grant more if they needed somebody Jewish govern the area and I was wondering can you read anything about that you think Balladur what was the point. It's coming out of it.

You can read about the expulsion of the Jews from France in 1182, so obviously there is use in France and have been for many centuries since but that once the specific is there like a point to this. Is there something more in terms what you're reading on a generic marriage and the validation validation where Charlemagne or father bought a governor from the jury can't agree to act as day governor over the area to be honestly didn't understand how to take care of the people that you now go use map King will you okay this this could be true but is is something I have not studied personally in terms of boldness in Jewish history, like the last thousand years.

I am looking at an 11 year right here that asked the question to the Jewish King of Narbonne exist on today's timeline among right so this is five years ago a mariculture mention something about Jewish kings in Carolinian France recognized by Charlemagne, probably using Arthur Zuckerman's Jewish kingdom in feudal France, 1972. A quick check on Wikipedia says that this theory was written audit by scholars, including and then it gives a list here so I'm not familiar with it, but if this report is accurate.

The idea has been rebutted. I'm just trying to look. Are there sources in English or they just in French. Anyway, look up look up Myrick Halter MAR EK Halter H a LT the R and you may be able to find out more from their hate. Thank you for the question and sorry I didn't have more information for you real quick in Toronto. Nick, welcome to the line of fire equipment. Local ones being left on top of another and what about the Western Wailing Wall property was never rebuilt.

Of course some first thing Matthew 24 is talking with the temple complex. The buildings of the temple themselves. The Western Wall called the co-tell the woman in Hebrew was extraneous to that. So was outside of that area that's that's the first thing so that it did remain standing, but the temple buildings that the that the temple proper was completely level completely destroyed.

But in Luke, Jesus says that in Jerusalem Jerusalem be flattened that one still be left on another that's prophetic speech as well and in other words, as my colleague Steve all pointed out a fire school of Ministry when the city was flattened and when the Romans did exactly what Jesus said would happen, and when the massive temple walls were were overthrown. It seemed impossible to do and the Romans did it. The last thing you be doing is like why wall standing there so Jesus was wrong. You be like on my it happened just as he said, so you may have little structure here there it remained standing, but the place was level. Scott what's it like every year on the tour and as you do several tours year now, when when the tour group for that special day makes their way to the wall and they see it for the first time in and spend time praying there. What what happened yes absolutely remarkable. The Western Wall is actually retaining wall upon which the platform for the temple actually stood and it's the closest place. That Jewish people today can get to where the holy of holies was so not only do you see devout Jewish people praying at the wall and sticking their prayers into the cracks is ready held a note to prayer questions yesterday. Don't but you'll see people from every nation of the world. Women on one side, men on another going at an and spending time at the wall. It's a remarkable site. We have a great team on the ground. Dr. Brown, David Katz is one of our dear friends helping to make sure that everything is taken care of and I look forward to bringing our group in May 2020 to the Western Wall and you know what right next to the Western Wall are the southern steps of the temple upon which we know that Messiah Yeshua actually walked up. We know that he stepped on those steps to get to the temple itself. It's one of those remarkable remarkable places that nobody will ever forget that and it's it's like we understand that we see God in the spirit and that we live in the spirit and that was holy, as is his presence and his spirit. But when you're at a place where history is taken place and where millions of people prayed and poured out her heart to God and what you can pray right next to religious Jew and he's probably praying for the coming of the Messiah in your next of sale God opened his eyes to the reality, the Messiah, it's very, very sacred friends join us May 2020 aspect around the Lord see about right on the homepage sign off. Scott and I can't wait to see there and check out his new book, Jesus is not
