Why is there so much Jewish hatred of Jesus and Gentile hatred of Jews 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 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks transfer joining us on the special early Jewish Thursday broadcast. I am blessed and joyful to be here with you. No hype putting on a radio personality. I am overflowing on the inside with joy, knowing God, knowing his grace, knowing his favorite having the great opportunity to be with all of you my friends on radio and Internet use way to reach us today. If you have a Jewish related question Jewish light of any kind. Hebrew related Israel related messianic prophecy related Judaism related to Jewish related question 866-348-7884 that is the number to call. Now we've got a new screen set up where I'm looking at some active comments.

Now I've got YouTube comments here. I've got Facebook comments on going to be able to see their if you see me looking around the lows that are watching rather than listening. I may be able to interact a bit more with some of your comments with our set up yourself. You're unable to call you. Have a question you can compose the concisely I was I was. I will hope to get to some of your posted questions as well. Okay, so they really need II got contacted by a secret believing Rabbi lives in another country. That's all say secret, believing Rabbi genuine the real deal. Got contacted by him through social media and had some private interaction with them. I don't believe his name up on social media is his real name. Anyways, knowing connect with me, not a friend of mine on Facebook or thought that those who is it not a friend of mine on Facebook and anyway I contacted through social media and just an amazing story and another reminder that God is at work because it work is work behind the scenes when asked this gentleman. How did he find out about me in our work.

He said he found me on YouTube. Internet so by God's grace reaching people. The message of salvation through Yeshua the Messiah is getting out all right. Let's start here. I saw this YouTube comments earlier today and there certain things that we allow on certain things that we delete I know I get attacked day and night. People differ with me illogically or on other issues that and they can say things in a way that's not that ugly or hostile with profanity will extent it. I saw a comment earlier today in response to a video I kinda began Christian calling for someone to assassinate me well I, comments unacceptable on unappointed person, the person is lost and needs to know the Lord. But that's inappropriate and it really violates the guidelines of social media carriers and things like that so that that's I can stand, and the common.

I'm about to show you is one that that we didn't post, just because the way it was worded, but I wanted go back with you and help you to understand what is behind this mentality so so here is what this fellow named diodes posted on YouTube. This is in response to us a teaching series of mine on answering Jewish objections to Jesus. He said your Jesus Christ was the son of Panthera, the Roman soldier with Mary, the harlot and and then he says this Jesus Christ was a the son right fill in the word. There and then he gives a a reference okay to Jesus being the son of Panthera calling Mary hardly think when you get that from where you get that information.

Why is there Jewish hostility to Jesus on this level.

There are few reasons. One reason is that this myth about Jesus being the son of a Roman soldier named Panthera in an illegitimate relationship with Mary this myth. This libelous tradition circulates begins probably probably several hundred years after the time of Jesus when there was already quite a breach between co-church and synagogue where the church had become thoroughly Gentile and the synagogue had really reacted even more against you. Each one going in different directions. Synagogue reacting more against the claims of Jesus being the Messiah. Now the further you going to Jewish history where there is actual Christian so-called Christian persecution of Jews with Christians demonizing Jews were Jews are suffering at the hands of the church, then the hostility to Jesus gets even greater and more intense in the libelous traditions and anti-Jesus legends grow. There's no excuse for them there longer libelous to destructive their ugly but some of them come as a reaction to ugliness from the church.

That's one thing. Another aspect comes from myths, lies circulated about Jesus in some of these Jewish traditions, saying, for example, he was a sorcerer that he learned magic and idolatrous magical practices in Egypt and and then brought them back to Israel and misled Israel so he becomes this evil figure and most of the people putting forth these lies in these traditions. These demonic things never read the New Testament the many who the real Jesus was so there's a lot of misinformation that spreads and then there's the fact that there were Jewish people who saw the Messiah in the flesh who saw him work signs, wonders and miracles who encountered him. And in many many different ways and yet rejecting him while he be rejected. While one reason this is a threat to the establishment Yeshua Jesus was a threat to the ancient Jewish religious establishment. Just as he's a threat to the contemporary Christian religious establishment is always a threat to the establishment always is the always in that sense overturns the the the tables of the money changers. He he always challenges or positions of of dominance and authority when when we had our traditions to the word of God, and rather than serve people rule over them. So there are people who saw him rejected him with hard hearts, and who then reproduce that in generations afterwards. So the one hand there is Jewish culpability and responsibility. The Messiah was rejected with the rejection comes a hardness of heart are people against the Messiah.

Other culpability comes because of a church that departed from its Jewish roots that began to persecute the Jewish people and that drove Jewish people away from Jesus and painted a false picture of Jesus. All right, so those are two dynamics at work you so what's the son of Panthera thing what the best we can speculate is this. When I say we I mean scholars looking at this, the Greek word for young woman/virgin but then predominate comes to be used for Virgin's Parthenon's Parthenon's so Isaiah 714 in Hebrew.

He Neha Maher ovulated Ben look that the young woman is the maiden is with child in about two give birth to us about your birth can be a song called Emmanuel that that was translated by the Septuagint with Parthenon switch which has more of a nuance of virgin and that's what Matthew uses in Matthew the first chapter when he quotes Isaiah 714 and in Matthew 123 so this was son of the virgin Yeshua, son of the Parthenon, son of the virgin son of the all mall some of this maiden who is a virgin. Okay and this then Parthenon's gets corrupted into Panthera so son of pot son of Parthenon. Some of the virgin Virgin Mary in the maiden. Miriam now becomes son of this Roman soldier Panthera will resist just the negative tradition that ties in with that name ties in with that word or are you following me. Okay, so there's no basis to their zero history to it.

It is a lie just like already in the Gospels, Jesus is faced with this essay you are born of immorality when you don't exactly say no Osborne virgin, but in those born Maria my my mom got pregnant or would like but it was divine. You don't come up with a a line like that you find me another religion. Okay. Finally, another major religion major called on the planet that claims that its founder is one of virgin the time. At some some religious myths somewhere in the ancient world that has a rough parallel except in 7° away. You know, multiply, multiply, both know I'm talking about where the leader will in his lifetime. The claim is being known and being proclaimed immediately after ways virgin born.

You don't you don't create myths and ideas like that because like all ye are right sure you know the house picture this okay your your husband devoted husband madly in love with your wife you you are in the military in your sent overseas for six months and you come home six months later and find out your wife is three months pregnant. She committed adult.

She committed culture, your wife was in no honey.

It was I didn't touch anyone. I haven't left the house. The Holy Spirit came upon me, even the most believing guy. The world is like, on is not the customer you come up with the credibility. This is the kind of story that you tell because it's true.

And then that explains the divine nature of the son of God, so, so this whole idea of some of Panthera is a reaction to the virginal conception and birth of Jesus the Messiah. That's where the traditions come from okay there was a question asked by Tom on YouTube about Deuteronomy 18, which speaks about God raising up a prophet like Moses will be the people who was that prophet. There are two levels of understanding in the passage first in every generation that the children of Israel do not have to go to the diviners the necromancers the people who who read the stars and and and clouds and so on and talk to the dead and all of this. Don't go to them. Deuteronomy 18 starting verse nine rather rather gobble reciprocity, for he who tell you the will of God through every generation. Joshua would've been that next prophetic leader. Here God until the people of Israel how to live in every generation there would be prophetic leaders or a prophet in each generation would function in the national way, or in local ways, so that the people of Israel or the Kings leaders could go to that prophet to get direction from God rather than going to the soothsayers in the that the pagan idolatrous priests and things like that.

However, that languages use explicit gobble raise up a prophet like Moses from among the people is is a twice. Deuteronomy 30 forces no prophet like Moses was raised up in Israel. This solves the written centuries later, no prophet like Moses was raised up, meaning there is going to be a greater ultimate profit and that's why New Testament times resources tells people waiting for that great prophet. That's why Jesus is identified as that prophet in the gospel so he is the one that rings that the fulfillment quotes also in acts three back with your Jewish calls stay right here on file. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH dear again is Dr. Michael Brown locomotive two are thoroughly Jewish Thursday broadcast on modifier Michael Brown delighted to be with you. 866-34-TRUTH yeah thoroughly Jewish Thursday my joy to be with you.

So look the average Jewish person you talk to about Jesus. Mission America abstruse persons more secular. They may be wide open to Jesus. They may think he's a cool teacher. They may think it was an enlightened rabbi. They may think he was the religious revolutionary reformer, or they they might think know he's led Israel astray, and he's the God of the Catholic Church in an image is negative context and things like that you speech more religious to either they don't really want talk about Jesus at all, or speaking about that subject will get very upset because their minds a straight line from Jesus to the Holocaust. So where are you talking to just remember there can be different levels of spiritual opposition different challenges to overcome. Like everything else, the number one thing we can do is pray.

Most people speak the truth in love, and the better we listen and understand why people evident a problem with our message the better were able to communicate our message to them now.

Couple things quickly, then we go to the phones. The bombs, the, the attempted bombings that bombs sent to the Clintons to the Obama's evacuation of the New York City CNN headquarters is the bomb threat of bombs sent to the residence of the billionaire financier George Soros, or short is to be known and hungry was financed so many radical left causes and on and on. Now one sent to Robert De Niro. Apparently I say apparently just didn't read the details on the headlights. Who is behind this. As of this moment as I'm speaking a little do they know who's behind it could well be some trump supporter who hates all these different ones and is out to get them and is provoked it could be a false flag operation on the left to try to make the right look back, it could be some outside terrorist group trying to disrupt things.

It could just be a mentally unstable person.

We don't know at this point. Once we find out then. Then we address the larger issues.

However, there is culpability on every side from CNN to the radical left to the rest of the left-wing media.

Much of the left-wing media to Hollywood elites president trump there is culpability there has been way too much speech that incites violence way too much crazy speech over the top speech so I know you go to sleep very late and I get up normally midmorning this morning I got up six something how to do an interview like a 30 in the morning, but I was up at six of which was never happens.

So I got a bed got out of bed prayed for a while and I felt to write.

So I wrote an article which you can read on screen.org run a website is Dr. Brown, the Lord is called.

I have a word for CNN. The left Hollywood, the Hollywood elite and the president as was called heavenward for CNN. The left the Hollywood elite and the president. While you're reading it, just read an article I wrote late last night so when late last night one of this morning called God is neither Republican or Democrat right so check out those articles share them with your friends. I think you'll find them very helpful. Let us rise above the political fray.

That's a major message of my book. Donald Trump is not my Savior and evangelical leader speaks his mind about the many sports present. If you have in order to get go to Amazon order today. Download the Kindle by the paperback get it, you'll be blessed. Are you sure you you'll find it very enriching helpful content in the book is a major theme of the book we got to rise above the political fray.

We can't get caught up in the spirit of the age we got you better than this. Come with wisdom and truth in the midst of it, 866342 we start in Miami with Jason.

Welcome to the modifier. Michael R thing like my question serves on John 1926 and perhaps 19.5 when it the older son and John behold your mother selected reading All the day that Ben had blood brothers and sisters. This would've been on Grandview to commit John to take care of his mother because the other family members should be taken care of mother and they refer back to Jewish tradition, so I'm wondering if you have in mind any laws in the knock or laws in the Mishnah referring to know family members taking care of the their widowed mother. Okay, so right so so the Catholic apologist argument would obviously be then that this shows that that Mary is the spiritual mother. She's the mother of us all, etc. and and that's that's the the issue so number one we have elsewhere in the Gospels when people are crowding teeth marks to be. For example, in they say look your mother, your family there out here and he says who's my mother who's my family.

Whoever does the will of God. So there is directly pushing against this idea of the special importance of Miriam Mary his mother and saying that were all one spiritual family. And then there's another passage where a woman shot shouts out in a Blessed is the womb that bore you in and that the breast that suckled you and he responds with rather blessed are all those who do the will of God and keep it so you have a couple of examples in the Gospels where Jesus is pushing back against this idea of the special exultation of his mother, or the special place of his mother, which completely demolishes Mary Olive tree and and in the Catholic worship of Mary etc. the Catholic exultation of Mary Craig Keener in his Bible background commentary to the New Testament says this, the evidence is disputed as to whether relatives and close friends were allowed near crucifixions.

They probably were neither case, the soldier supervising the execution would've looked the other way and practice if they had no reason to prevent it permitted the prerogatives of motherhood, the highly respected ancient world because Jesus may not be elevated far above the ground.

Jesus mother and disciple can hear him without being extremely close to the cross of I read that because Craig is bringing all relevant background, Jewish, Roman, Greek background on the passage doesn't feel it necessary to make a big fuss out of that. In short, there is no special tradition in Judaism that say different than what Paul wrote in first Timothy five namely that if you don't care for your own family or worse than an infidel.

You worse than an unbeliever, so honoring parents caring for parents would certainly be important and the other part of the Catholic apologist argument here is that Jesus did not have blood brothers and sisters right.

That's the other part of their argument, a Catholic tradition says that that Miriam Mary remained a virgin that there was no sexual relations ever between Joseph and Mary, that when it says in Matthew one that he had no relations with her until the birth of Yeshua that it doesn't apply afterwards. I'd say that's the most illogical reading the logical reading is in those situations until after and then did and then elsewhere it mentions his brothers his brothers and sisters are mentioned elsewhere in the Gospels and we understand James Jacob to be his half-brother so his midsize brother through Miriam and Joseph so this clear New Testament evidence that he had siblings and is clear New Testament evidence against the over exultation of Mary Miriam.

So the question is then, if if there were other brothers and sisters.

Why didn't Jesus assign their care. Miriam's care said to them what he knows very well what is best for his mother and could be that John had the best opportunity to care for and that they're all spiritual family, and it would be just like today, let's let's say that you and I were brothers, and then we have another friend very close friend of the family and and her dad passed away.

Our mom was old and needed someone to care and the friends that hey I got a facility I get an extra guestroom of my wife's a nurse and could as I came. If you could do that that be awesome. So, for whatever reason there was a relationship there were that was the best.

There could've been heavier persecution of the others. There could've been other things that are going to suffer a could've been that John was going to live longer so in the wisdom of God.

He does it but to read more into that is to go completely beyond the Bible and to try to support a Catholic tradition that has no support within Scripture.

All right. Well, I mean I'm a lot unless talking persuaded away from my background and I will find like I get no support, no Jewish log indicate that you have to take care of your mother if you're in the blood family so there's no there's no law. This is someone else can't do something no law.

This is someone else can't. But that what is what. Since the Bible explicitly mentions his brothers and sisters there other words, they can use for cousins or things like that explicitly mentions his brothers and sisters another text right and we have early church tradition, represent, for example, James Jacob being one of them a little brother.

What is it that with persuade you to reject the explicit testimony of Scripture plus that Matthew one is best understood as saying they had sexual relations after after Jesus was born, you line up several you going to make the brothers and sisters and her parents and line them up. You can make the case that James and Joseph were the children of married life equipment or quilt and have a couple people who argued that the price you got a pretty pretty far out on a limb to say that one Mary when Miriam comes with Jesus brothers and sisters saying come on, we gotta take you out here and they think he's lost his mind and says hey who's my brother who's my sister who's my mother is pretty much restricts similar entitlement, cousin second, third or fourth cousins or or whatever you know but the intent to what had hang on since it is their leaders Thursday and this goes in the way of Catholic apologetics.

I got a break coming up with Jason a few weeks. Feel free to call on Friday and maybe we can further discuss his love to write. I just want to stay true to the theme of the show today through Thursday and that we covered that part I only insert please let's continue the discussion. All right will be back by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown so so what you do with this religious Jews praying daily. Three times a day, crying out to God for redemption, confessing faith in the oneness of God wanted to be loyal to the traditions loyal to the tour feel that this is the way that they please God, feeling that it's right for them to reject Jesus the Messiah feeling that, in rejecting him. They are being faithful to God is one of my colleagues put is that there are no to Jesus for them was a yes to God through this hardhearted these rabbis there they don't.

I don't believe the messianic prophecies is as if it's just so open that anyone even looks would suit immediately as if Yeshua didn't have to open his disciples eyes and then now it's clear now we see it and relate well.

Human beings, human beings, just harden sin like all of us can be rebellious and stubborn, some are proud religious practitioners and that's the big issue. Some are sincere seekers. Many are sincere seekers.

Therefore, II pray with faith and expectation that God would open their hearts and reveal Jesus the Messiah. To them this is Michael Brown. Thank you for joining us today on the line of fire on thoroughly Jewish. There is if you got if you forgot what day of the week it was the moment he heard the music that reminds you their leaders Thursday, 866-348-7884 is the number to call any Jewish related question of any kind by all means. The phone lines are open 8664 truth before I go to the phones we have all kinds of crazy stuff that gets posted on our social media pages, because by God's grace we literally reach millions of people on a regular basis and because of that you get all kinds of comments coming another vast majority of comments that come and see him on Facebook, twitter, general responses to articles I don't see but many to come in on YouTube, especially once they get flagged automatically by YouTube. If someone post the same comment like 10 different times in different places that I get stopped or if this profanity and delegate stop or sometimes it links the good stuff. So some of those Aussie Avenue spot once it was really long and one of the longest I've seen and and we blocked it and block the person because it was ugly, anti-Semitic trash of the lowest lowest level and what makes it of the lowest lowest level is not just the hatred and the lies with the fact that it was in Jesus name. So here's how it ends. Chris Alamance are you ready this is the end of it, really, to directly Adolf Hitler and and forgive these words that you hear okay Adolf Hitler was the greatest Christian in 2000 years since St. Paul dear, this is posted on YouTube.

Note you won't see it there because we we we blocked it and we blocked that the person posted a long long Holocaust praising quote full of anti-Semitic laws, Adolf Hitler was the greatest Christian in 2000 years since St. Paul, sadly, he had no gas chambers for Demon seed Edomite Canaanite communist Jews.

The hollow hoax is a total lie by demons and Schuller that we call Jews today affect. We actually reported that for abuse this the type of stuff that should be banned on social media regardless of who it's going after violent ugly hate filled lies like that don't deserve apply for.

Having said that using Windows account where witnesses hatred for Jews come from comes from the same Satan that seeks to destroy lies and blind eyes, and when people through religious pride, spiritual ignorance through personal bad experience through personal racism or bigotry or whatever it is when they get imbibed with this one signifies an open door. All he has a field day with attacks against the Jews.

That's why I have written that anti-Semitism is not distal the world's longest hatred that's the term I got from Catholic scholar Edward Flannery, who wrote a tremendous book on anti-Semitism in church history. The anguish of the Jews, but Edward Edward Flannery referred to it is the longest hatred I've also said it is the world's most irrational hatred.

The words, the world's most widespread hatred in the world's most vicious hatred of written about that several different settings, 60 questions questions ask about Jewish practices and beliefs. My book enhances them above the second to last chapter in our hands were stained with blood deals with a very safe nature very subject the diabolical nature of Jew hatred of anti-Semitism here is full-blown ugly destructive. May God have mercy on the person that posted that and bring them to repentance and salvation.

866-3487 84 of its go to San Diego DN excuse me EN. Welcome to the line of fire Michael good afternoon Arcadia some pretty ugly stuff. Yes, that is, cursor my question directly in regard to some of the objections that are brought up by rabbinic Jews one like you that I have much respect for them.

It seems like a lot of them are very genuine and seeking patent. They also recognize that we are also but they different your thing on the challenging ones for me of the seeming contradiction between Deuteronomy 30 and Romans chapter 10, where it seemed like when Moses is delivering the law, he makes the point that don't say in your heart. This is too difficult to achieve that. It's too hard to follow and go to heaven to bring it down now and have what he says don't say that because it's simply a thing or that your heart is in your mouth so that you can do the command but then in Romans 10. Like all changes that you rather than doing the commanded founders confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart. God raised from the dead end, Paul seems like a lot of times I don't want to misrepresent you, but that is actually too difficult to do the law.

That's why we need great, but maybe you could just expel no yes. So there are two different levels of efficiency are in. The first is Paul's interpretive method.

The second is what the content of Deuteronomy 30 says versus an apparent or alleged New Testament contradiction of that content. So as as for his interpretive method.

He's doing will be called midrash.

It's homiletical interpretation, you find it all over rabbinic literature. In fact, rabbinic homily rib rabbinic midrash. This is about 10 times less reserved. The New Testament midrash.

In other words, how reverse can be taken to mean this and taking that this is not the the narrative sense is that the plain sense of the Scripture to be called shot. This is the midrash application etiquette. It can be really fascinating and really out there. Okay so if if you just look at midrash interpretations of Deuteronomy 30 Paul is very sober in comparison with some of them or just compared to other rabbinic midrash so all all he's doing. There would be called midrash.

I happen to have Craig Keener's Bible background commentary open from her previous caller so here's what he says on on Romans 1067 Paul here does midrash expanding a texting good Jewish fashion in context to ascendant. Deuteronomy 30 called means who was sending on Mount Sinai to bring the law down again. Who will descend the Deuteronomy 3013 means who will descend into the Red Sea to cross it again. God had redeemed his people of the Red Sea, according to the Old Testament Jewish tradition. Now God has consummated the saving acts in Christ in the same principle applies to him. So in other words, it's not just a flight of fancy. It's okay, here's what I meant. Then Naumann applies here and in the rabbis constantly do that with peers what it meant then. But here's the application in light of our rabbinic tradition.

For example, the fact that the word is near you, in your heart mouth that you may do it right. That's taken as proof of the oral law because the oral laws recited by the mouth and passed on orally until his folly written down centuries later, according to rabbinic tradition, whereas Deuteronomy 30 saying that this written word is what's in your mouth that none oral tradition right so if if the guys on the text you would scroll down to Deuteronomy chapter 30 scroll scroll down to your will start in verse 11. This commandment that I command you today is not too hard for you. Neither is it far off is not in heaven that you should say who was sent to heaven for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it, do it. The density on the sea that you should say who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us, that we may hear and do it with the words ring near you is in your mouth and in your hearts that you can do it.

So this is used by rabbinic Judaism to prove the oral law which certainly is not what it's talking about. So Paul is just using midrash and that this was a logic behind the reserves is a reason behind it is not the same with the rabbis there's a textual connection.

There is a logical connection. There is a another text that reminds you of this that ties in so Paul same text met this. Now I'm giving it. This application and an since some of the Roman believers had been in the synagogue before that they probably would've been familiar with some of this is well here's the big question so once it was as once again it is midrash. That's all this is New Testament midrash in any rabbinic Jew would be thoroughly familiar with that right. However, the bigger question is, isn't Paul contradicting what's written in Deuteronomy 30 is Deuteronomy 30 saying is not heart.

You can do this is nothing stopping you. It's not too difficult and you Paul is saying by the works of the law. No one is justified. So the answer is that both are true members. Romans seven Paul says that his inward man and he started MetLife under the law affirms its true and he loves it and wants to do it, and yet he finds another law working in his physical body. In his mind that fights against it.

So there's nothing stopping any of us from doing was written there is it's totally doable.

You can observe the Sabbath. You can set your heart to loved although your heart, soul, mind, strength. You can determine to love your neighbor as yourself.

You sound like a, I embrace all of it. I want to do it. And yet human nature constantly reveals his rebellion against God by not doing you say what you just read something to the Texas out there no Paul read the all of the time off because what happens in the in the. Immediately after this in Deuteronomy 31 Moses that you rebelled in my lifetime. I know you rebel afterwards in the whole history of the Old Testament writings after that is rebellion sin rebellion sin destruction destruction of the northern tribes. Southern tribes going into exile. Destruction of the temple. We had the Temple destroyed through most of our history, including the last 2000 years we been in exile without sovereignty.

For most of our history, including most of the last 2000 years, and on and on it goes.

So we the here's the indictment. It was right there. There was nothing stopping me from doing it except my own stubborn will and I fail and I fail and I fail and that's why Paul says no flesh will be justified by the works of the law, because by the law comes knowledge of sin and God's Toronto convicts us you finally a person who can't look you in the eye and say I love God perfectly with all my heart so my strength perfectly love my neighbor as myself, etc. no Jews very much recognize their sin religious views and recognize the need for repentance so nothing stopping you from doing is right there, except my senses. I won't do it. 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. Weber welcome welcome to light a fire, this is Michael Brown.

I want to sit for me to listen to Marty get singing that wonderful song, an invitation hey to all of you. I know him speaking to some of you who don't believe as I believe I know for fact that he's listening or watching either live on days ahead. There will be three friends and you don't believe as I believe maybe you're hostile to me. If you think I'm crazy.

Maybe think, with Seaver think of ignorant but nonetheless you're watching or listening than the Leicestershire. Perhaps it's God is bringing you here for you.

Perhaps you are not here to help me. Perhaps you're here for me to help you.

Perhaps the Holy Spirit showing you hey you fall short I hear is is right here in Scripture. I can do I can do it I can do it there's nothing stop me and yet I recognize my own sinful nature recognize my own selfishness are recognized by double mindedness, whether it's lustful thoughts or covetous thoughts or selfish thoughts are spiritually proud thoughts are, or failing to do this not doing what God commands here and we all fall short.

That's the message of the entire Hebrew Bible, we all fall short. Yes there are those cold, righteous, meaning the return to God. Repentance they seek to please God, but they also need atonement. There's not a single person on the planet who can point to their own righteousness and say God bring me and accept me because my own righteousness. We forgiveness we need mercy is that was written Koheleth Ecclesiastes is that there's that adjustment on the earth who does what is right without wrong is that was written in the Psalms when the Psalmist says don't don't don't bring into judgment for our sins because no living man will be justified in your sight is not what Proverbs says who can save Mart. My heart is pure and clean is is not what Genesis says that the thoughts of men's hearts are evil continually from their youth.

Is this what Isaiah says that we've all gone astray, like sheep, that our righteousness is like a menstrual cloth like filthy rags is that was written on Scripture.

Isn't that why we need mercy. Isn't that why we need a Redeemer is that why we need God to come and save us because we cannot save ourselves may be here that invitation God saying I'll forgive you, forgive you right now.

Start with a brand-new clean slate and and that's life will be different for the rest your life that even when you fall short instead of your here's your sins on one side and your righteous deeds. On the other side is your sins on one side and the messiahs righteous deeds on the other side which then also call us away from sin into righteousness.

Maybe you hear that voice saying come and drink, and drink come and be refreshed. Come and be forgiven if you come and say God have mercy on recognize my sin. I know I fall short. I'm not trying to justify myself with your Jew, Gentile being atheist, Muslim, Hindu religious Jew gonna recognize a fall short.

I am aware of it, have mercy on me, forgive me wash me clean. I believe Jesus the Messiah died in my place. I believe he died for my sins. The death of the righteous atoning for me. I believe he died for my sins. And I ask you to wash me clean based on what he did. Based on his food based on his marriage.

Forgive me and give me a brand-new life. Give me a new heart labor cut – give me a a new heart roof because the Sean new spirit within me that I can serve you and live for you if you truly crowd to God will do and then contact us.

We'd love to be in touch with you and help you in your spiritual journey 866-348-7884 before I go back to the phones I noticed a series of posts on YouTube today series of comments that began with the defense of Rev. Stephen Sizer who has been not just a militant opponent of Israel but but a man who has been criticized for even anti-Semitic remarks he made a crazy statement attacking messianic congregations years ago and I did a mini debate with him on Moody radio and in the midst of it. I quoted those words back to him. I quoted his words back to him and and he said I never said that he denied. This is very ugly statement very ugly. I think that you're any messianic variation is an abomination to God.

Something like I said, actually, you said it on this day was a Q&A session with that I went through this will I'm I'm at home with him over the references the other the Somerset out of an apology, but yes, it is accurate and I pray for his repentance. So then I noticed that this person would posted a bunch of of of things so I want to read one of them to. This was on YouTube and the fellow goes by is a dog name okay so he's responding to my video and how we find unity in Jesus. So here's what he posted as we find unity in Jesus and mitzvah political difference it would help if you Dr. Brown would openly confess that excusing the indisputable evils of the avowed enemies of Christ likeness is unquestionably evil and consequently you are not a voice of both cultural and spiritual revolution that the I don't know if he was referring to supporting Israel or the fact that I voted for Donald Trump but yet will differ with him on different fronts right about your executive because all of his other comments were really Israel attacking and and even even some crossing some slug lines with Jewish people so that they just got removed because of the spirit of what was being said disagreements welcome.

We have hundred hundreds of thousands of comments over the years. I live account of them. But I'm sure it's up to that by now I imagine it is disagreeing disagreeing disagreeing disagreeing and their welcome goal for and how we welcome it. Call and we welcome it when across lines of ugliness are false accusations. We drove us to catch those stop them from being posted because we don't we don't want to be a platform but I custom so by standing with Israel. I am therefore not a voice of both cultural and spiritual revolution use a boa heading handle attacks like that. All I feel bad for the people, but the tax encouragement because it's the opposite of what's being said when I recognize that something is wrong or false. I turned around as a prophetic encouragement from God. So this to me is God saying to me. Yes, son. You are you are a voice of both cultural and spiritual front.

The person coming with ugly Evan is the other stuff was was ugly. That was posted in false and wrong.

So we see that it okay that if the spirit of falsehood is telling you though left the spirit of truth is the legal right if the spirit of falsehood is telling you you're worthless. The spirit of truth and you have great worth in God's sight site.

I just turned the laws of the attacks into positive words of encouragement from heaven, 86634 let's go to David in Baltimore. Welcome to the line of fire started well but will call Malcolm's are waiting on the phone to job clues about leads to a question that happens. I understand that but the argument stick to my original question. You simply want to Jewish people. Think about how we fight so okay.

My answer. Yeah, I'm only laughing because first we Jewish people to commit anything this is a joke as if you have to choose an army of three opinions. Okay, so the average American Jew, the secular brothers and think about any differently than your average nominal Christian or your average nonreligious person knows just whatever it's if it's time people get dressed up in costumes and kids go trick-or-treating. In other words, it nonreligious Jew is not really think about it either way. Right grew up it was it was a Jewish community about 300 families, but almost none of them were observant, almost none of them wrote lit the candles on Friday night. For example, you are just the basics Sabbath observance very few went to synagogue regulated kids went on trick-or-treat just did it so it in the secular Jewish homes no different than a secular Christian homeward known atheist versus whatever, it's distances silly time people get up in costumes and maybe watch a horror movie or whatever religious Jew doesn't exist for them. There was this is completely it has no existence has no meaning and is no significance it has it it's no more in their minds than the man on the moon.

They have the calendar they have their traditions that other lifestyle is something completely of the world and if they ever think of it, they just think of his pagan know what's what's my own view others an interesting quote from from Anton LeVay who of course is a famous Satanist and and according to this court take us commute. We pull that code up Anton LeVay. According to this meme and think it's accurate quote he said I'm glad the Christian parents let their children worship the devil at least one night out of the year.

The sum could check to see if he accurately said that are not obviously obviously when the kid gets dressed up in like a clown outfit or when a kid gets dressed up in the Superman outfit and goes trick-or-treating. He's not worshiping the devil and there are some Christians as a world that goes back to you know it was at All Saints Day and a reformation of the all I know is what's become of Halloween for many years, and for for a long time is associated with the dark side of our kids did not get dressed up in costumes for for trick-or-treating. That was not part of our lifestyle as believers and even make it innocent will do some else to beat the make it innocent.

This is associated here. You talk to Satanist this is an important time of the year for them. Okay.

Certain times have been fasting and hollowing is like what's this out difficult fasteners, eyes hollowing, there's more spiritual opposition because a lot of witches and others.

It's a time of like fasting and and be involved in their activity and a lot of the Association mean that the flicks that come out the hollowing movies is violence dark and satanic.

So for me to something totally separate from NC is this dark period. That being said services.

Though we have a harvest festival or church doing outreach in the middle doing outreach just don't get dressed up and saying costumes back with you tomorrow with your questions
