A Dangerous New Variation of Dual-Covenant Theology

The following program is recorded content created by Truth Network. Thanks for listening this Truth Network Podcast.

3-4-8-7-8-8-4. This is Michael Brown, glad to be back live in studio. I hope you appreciated the programming earlier this week. Started off the week talking about my own testimony in greater depth than I normally do, the descent into drugs and sin and God's amazing redemption.

So I hope you were edified by that. If you missed that, that was the Monday broadcast. Then Tuesday, I talked about the persecuted church, talked about suffering of believers around the world, suffering believers in Islamic countries, and then focused on Pakistan where we spoke, well virtually face-to-face, you didn't get to see a face intentionally, with a bold Pakistani pastor who is in the States. Spoke with him on Tuesday and then yesterday interviewed my colleague Professor James Beverly about Jehovah's Witnesses and why they're losing members.

So if you missed any of those broadcasts, by all means check them out at AskDrBrown.org or on our YouTube channel ASKDRBrown, Ask Dr. Brown. And again today our focus, Thoroughly Jewish Thursday, Jewish Israel related. We've got some news from Israel, we've got some news about the meeting with President Biden and Prime Minister Bennett. We'll be talking about all those things.

And I do want to discuss a dangerous theological error that's found in some Christian Zionist circles. We'll get to that as well, but the headlines today, and as you're watching we'll just put some images on the screen, otherwise we'll just talk our way through this, but bombings outside of the Kabul Airport. So again it's a chaotic scene there to start. You've got thousands of people swarming the area, swarming the airport, desperate to get out. Americans, Afghanis, desperate to get out. They do not want to be there under the Taliban, especially those that have been working with America, let alone just women, young women in general, let alone Christians. So people doing their best to flee the country.

I mean images of of little babies being passed through the crowd and then throw them over a barbed wire fence to somebody else to get them out of the country. One American woman, I read the account, it was just jarring. She's there close to the gates, then there's a swarm of people and next thing a stampede and she loses her two-year-old daughter. Where's her two-year-old daughter? She can't find a two-year-old daughter.

When she finds her she's been trampled to death. This is from a few days back. Now talk of this being ISIS.

ISIS being revived, yet another place for them to expand their their terror outreach and with its suicide bombings. And now many calls for President Biden to resign and calls for him to be impeached. One Republican congressman said, look if if President Trump could be impeached for a phone call, how much more for this debacle? And like many others, I do not believe that Joe Biden is operating at full capacity. That seems self-evident.

You add in to the fact, well you add in to the fact that he has these life-and-death decisions to be making and may not be listening to the counsel around him as much as he needs to or may not be getting the best of counsel and on and on. It's it is it is a real crisis. It's a real crisis. Now let's just talk about it for a moment, dispassionately. I started to write an article about if this was Trump as president, what the left-wing media would be doing. I started to write about that and then I thought that's a stupid article because what the left-wing media would be doing to Trump is what the right-wing media is doing to Biden. So there you have it. I mean that's that's the reality.

But let's not make this partisan political now. Reports of 12 servicemen, 12 Americans killed in the bombings. Now did you realize that until now, until these recent days, that no American servicemen had died in Afghanistan since February of last year?

So you're talking roughly a year and a half, roughly a year and a half without anyone dying. So we were there to stop the thwart of terror. We were there to hold back certain wrong destructive forces, but it was not in an ongoing way that life-threatening or dangerous relatively speaking. Now every casualty is a tragedy.

If that was your family member, that's a tragedy and I understand that. I'm not downplaying that with the 2,400 servicemen that died in our 20 years there. I'm simply saying that it was relatively peaceful, relatively, and now all chaos breaking loose.

This has been terribly mishandled by President Biden. Now you say, no, Trump started the bad policies. He started negotiating with the Taliban. He started releasing various terrorists. He was working out of the agreement with the Taliban and tribal factions that was going to bypass the government and you don't negotiate with terrorists and there's still terrorists and all that.

Fair questions, fair points. How much of this was started by Trump policy? How much of this was started with a wrong approach in the first place? And frankly, I don't know what the right approach is on the ground in Afghanistan. I'm not the one to tell America, this is the way to handle it.

I've got all the answers for you. But for sure, for sure, we would not have had this crisis if it was not completely mishandled by the Biden administration. And President Trump posted something the other day, and he made his share of mistakes for sure, not arguing with that in his presidency, but he posted something, because he can't tweet, he posted something and said this. He said, this is the right way to do it. First you get all the Americans out. And I would say with that, those that have been helping and working together as allies within the country, you give them the option of getting out. Then he said, next thing is, you get all your equipment out, otherwise you're arming the terrorists with state-of-the-art latest military technology. You get all your equipment out, then you bomb your buildings, you know, whatever your bases are, and then you get to military out.

It would seem to be self-evident. Why? Friends, why did it have to happen the way it happened? For what reason? Can anyone give me a good reason of pulling out the military before you get our citizens out, or others that have been working with us?

Why? It endangers the NATO allies and others working together, and it's mind-boggling. And if in fact President Biden was warned by other experts around him not to do things the way he did, the real tragedy, the greatest tragedy in that would be if he did it simply to score political points, thinking we're gonna have our people out, 9-11 is gonna come around, we'll be able to say we're out of there. So it's a real concerning moment. And it could get worse.

It could get worse. I'm hoping to get on the air. A longtime colleague and friend going back to the 80s, Rudy Attala, I understand was on Glenn Beck's broadcast recently, and he is heading up a project Glenn Beck is helping fund of getting people out of Afghanistan. And I just talked to a mutual friend right before the show that they have gotten out, I believe, 1,700 people from Afghanistan so far.

Now I don't know how many are Americans, how many are Afghans that we've been working with, I'm not sure about that, but there are people on the ground trying to help. So pray that God would give our government wisdom. If it's not to President Biden, then let it be to military or security people that he listens to or other foreign leaders. May God give our government wisdom.

That's the first thing, to do the right thing. Secondly, may God intervene in the midst of the crisis in Afghanistan and turn this chaos into something that can have a redemptive silver lining. And may he strengthen the believers in that country. May he strengthen the believers in that country. Now look, let's be honest, the partisan political sword cuts both ways.

Let's be honest. And there are people, when Trump was president, their last concern was the Afghan population. Let's get our people out of there, and after they're Muslim country, they're their own country, they do what they want to do, that's their business, let's get our people out of there. Now that there's been the disaster and the debacle under the Biden administration, and there's the realization of what this is going to mean for the Afghan people, especially for the women and the girls, along with the Christians, but the Christians are a tiny, tiny minority. You've got so many women and girls and the rights that they will lose and their futures that will be forfeit. And now you've got many of the same Trump supporters saying, yeah, what about the people of Afghanistan? So look, we could all be hypocritical.

You criticize the one, you praise the other, you justify it when you do it, you condemn someone else when they do it. We could all do that. There's no place for that right now.

It's that helpful. Let us pray that God's kingdom will be advanced in the midst of this, and that even the tragedy and the chaos and the pain, that God will work for good, that somehow there'll be an awakening among the people of Afghanistan. Because remember, you're talking about the Taliban as radical Muslims, but the people of Afghanistan are largely devout Muslims.

In other words, they were not fighting Islam as much as this more radical form of Islam. So let's pray for awakening. Let's pray for supernatural protection. Let's pray for wisdom for the American government as we interact. And look, is China going to try to seize the moment and have a greater influence in Afghanistan?

Yeah, if you are a world player with nefarious goals, you will try to seize whatever moment you can. So how do we pray, Lord, may your name be hallowed in Afghanistan. Lord, your kingdom come to Afghanistan.

Your will be done in Afghanistan on earth as it is in heaven. We are praying for the advancing of the kingdom of God in the midst of Islamic terror, in the midst of suicide bombings, in the midst of chaos, pain, terrible human loss, people weeping and screaming and grieving, even as I speak. We are praying for God's kingdom to be advanced, for the Lord's name to be hallowed, for God to bring good out of evil and light out of darkness. May the mercy and compassion of God be poured out on all who look to Him in Afghanistan. And again, may he give government leaders in America and around the world wisdom, and may he bring the leaders, radical Islamic leaders, bring them to repentance and they intervene to stop their evil. In Yeshua's name, in Jesus' name. Amen. You know there is always joy in the presence of the Lord. Welcome to Thoroughly Jewish Thursday.

It's Michael Brown. Here's a number to call with any Jewish related question of any kind, but we'll expand as we often do on a Thursday if you have something that relates to Islam. We'll talk about that as well.

866-34-TRUTH. And God's presence is fullness of joy. There's a time to dance.

There's a time to mourn. And right now, in some parts of the world, there's dancing, celebration, rejoicing, great things happening, and God moving. In other places like Kabul, great pain, great anguish.

May the Lord intervene and have mercy. So to underscore what we're dealing with, this is an Islamic scholar in Canada. This talk was picked up by Memory TV. This is out of Israel, and they monitor around the world, but especially in the Middle East and in Iran. They monitor what happens in mosques. They either have secret recording devices or they pick up feeds that go out in other places, and it could be in Arabic, it could be in Farsi, and then they translate these into English, into Hebrew, and you get to see firsthand what's being said. In some cases like this, for the most part, this Islamic leader is speaking in English, and then at the end he gets into Arabic, so we won't play that. But I want you to hear what he has to say as he mocks America's, he mocks Canada's, he mocks Jews and Christians.

Listen to what he has to say. They're willing to spend mountains of gold in order to take us away from Al-Islam. So they will spend it. But don't fear. At the end of the day, they're not going to win.

Allahu jalla wa'ala tells us, so they will spend it. Then it will be for them a source of regret. Hmm, a source of regret. Twenty years in Afghanistan. I don't need to say anymore.

A source of regret. Then they will be overcome. Does this sound familiar to you? Have you been listening to the news? Naquru Allahu Akbar. They will attack what is most sacred to us, but all of that that they do is only a small portion of what is really in their hearts, of the hatred that they have towards us in their hearts. Do not think that the Jews and the Christians are our friends.

They are our enemies. I incite you to show support for your brothers in Afghanistan who want to establish the Sharia in their land. We see that the West wants to talk about the rights of women. The rights of women. Ah yes, her right to be a prostitute. Her right to sleep around with whomever she wishes. I want you to understand what those rights are by the way. Her rights to be abused.

Her right to show her body off to men who get off on watching her in porn and in other than that. Right, so number one, he's telling this Muslim congregation, again this is an Islamic scholar in Canada, he's telling this Muslim congregation, Jews and Christians are not your friends, that the attack and Taliban and the attack on Islamic terror around the world is just a fraction of what's in our hearts to do to destroy Islam. Does he say that in fact he's in Canada and Muslims in America because of the goodwill of the North American peoples? That there is no one attacking them and they are free to practice their faith as long as they're not trying to attack others? Does he say that the reason that we got into Afghanistan in the first place was because the Taliban gave quarter to Osama bin Laden? That was it. President Bush said release him to us.

Turn him over to us and you'll be fine. You're not our enemies. But when they became the friend of our enemy, they became our enemy after the atrocities of 9-11. So this rhetoric is just meant to excite, incite more hatred and then stand with the Taliban, stand with Sharia law. No, we're not looking for the women of Afghanistan to dress like women in America. No, we're not looking for the women of Afghanistan to go to the beach in bikinis. No, we're not looking for the women of Afghanistan to get into porn. No, we're looking for girls to be educated beyond the age of 8. We're looking for women to have opportunities to fulfill dreams and visions and to be doctors and to serve in many other ways in the society. We're looking for people to not live under the threat of Sharia law.

Yeah, those opportunities we're looking for. But no, we can't present it like that. And that's also a big thing that fuels Islam is the decadence of the West. And this is supposed to be a Christian country and Islam looks at us as if that's Christian. We don't want it. This is a further issue to deal with and overcome. May God touch that man and may he have a Saul of Tarsus experience and encounter the real Savior and the real Lord.

May God grant him repentance. 866-34-TRUTH. Ah, you know what?

I was going to take a call that was relating to a subject where I was going, but I guess our caller couldn't hang on. It was a question I wanted to address. If you do have a question for me, any Jewish related question of any kind, 866-34-TRUTH. According to a recent headline, Israeli military authorities are blasting the Biden administration. Daily Wire headline, Israeli military officials blister Biden's Afghanistan pullout withdrawal created a hotbed of terror. All right, let me take you back and bring you into an Islamic revolutionary concept.

I talked about it in my book, the new edition, Revolution and Urgent Call to a Holy Uprising, but the first edition came out in the year 2000, second edition 2020. And in the book, I talk about an Islamic terrorist who was involved with a group of people that would, they had a number of lines of strategy. They had the the assassins that go out and kill people and then they had the the ones that would go out and educate and it's just these different lines of strategy.

In fact, the ones that would kill people would smoke hash first to get into an altered state of consciousness and to be more frenzied and going out and carrying out their attacks and the hush-hush smoking hash became assassin. That's where the word assassin comes from, hush-hushing, something like that basically. But in any case, one of the strategies was to have liberated zones and this is a well-known military strategy.

We've talked about it in different contexts. A liberated zone, so let's just say you are in a pitch battle against a military battle and you're trying to retake a city that's been taken by the enemy, but you are stranded, you are on the outskirts, you are scattered. Somehow you need a liberated zone. You need to get to a place and secure that place so that it can't be attacked or you're relatively safe there.

And then set up your communications there, other things. Then from there, from that liberated zone, you can then spread out because you have room to breathe, room to regroup, get your communications going, and from that base you go out. So they would have liberated zones for the spread of Islam and I've taken that over on the gospel end in terms of be it our local churches or be it our home groups or be it our own families or be it a community where the gospel is spread, that these become liberated zones where we come together, we get our heads clear, where we pray, where we strategize, and we reach out not with a message of hate and violence but with a message of love and the gospel. Okay, so what's that got to do with Afghanistan? All of Afghanistan in that sense, or especially pockets of Afghanistan, but at this point the whole country, can be a liberated zone for terror groups. Now obviously they're gonna have conflicts among them. They're not all going to get along and they're competing for certain similar goals and obviously they want income and they want the sex slaves, the women, and the various things like that, and in Afghanistan the the heroin, the opium, but you now have a place where not just the Taliban thrive but al-qaeda gets revived.

Leaders can go there and be safe and not be on the run so much and now ISIS can get revived and then remember the way this is being put out by the by the terrorists or by this Islamic cleric that we just listen to a moment ago. This is a victory for Islam. This now rallies people together. Do you know that on the one hand after 9-11 people were appalled at radical Islam and it caused many people to question what it meant to be a Muslim, but in many other ways it was a rallying point. Look at what Islam has done. It has struck the heart of the West. It has mocked the great Satan on his own shores and and and Allahu Akbar and so on.

So this now the victory in in Afghanistan by default by default by America pulling out the way it did just handing them this victory on a silver platter now a bloody silver platter tragically. So what happens is now that it opens the door for the whole nation to be flooded with terrorist groups and it's a big enough country and a country where you can get lost in the mountains easily enough that that now you have a potential hotbed for terror and a rallying point. Look at what the Taliban did. Look at the humiliation of America and then it it brings up more and more radicals. They they leave where they are and they join together to fight for the cause of Allah and of course tens of millions of Muslims hundreds of millions are repulsed by this. They're more moderate. They hate this. They say this is not our faith but plenty others it's exactly who they are. We'll be right back. it's the line of fire with your host dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling eight six six three four truth here again is dr. Michael Brown thanks for joining us friends on thoroughly Jewish Thursday on the line of fire just during the break before rejoining you now and some just tuning in joining you looking at headlines again it's it's the same but distressing quote extremely active threats these 12 u.s. servicemembers brutally slain an afghan terror blast world waits to hear from Biden Nikki Haley other Republicans demand by in resignation after massacre worst-case scenario Americans will likely be left behind after deadly blast ravaged Kabul sources say paying in blood us us staring down worse fears after Biden chose stupidest option according to representative Dan Crenshaw and on and on so earlier in the broadcast for those just tuning in we talked about what's happening Afghanistan and even prayed the Lord's Prayer with reference to Afghanistan so let's continue to do that and Prime Minister Bennett from Israel has been scheduled to meet with President Biden so be their first face to face with either of them as national leaders and I just want to take a little while to talk about that and go through an article in the Jerusalem Post now I just want to say that this article predates the bombing today in Kabul so I don't know what will shift how things will shift as a result of that you know obviously priorities change thinkings change but let's let's just take a look at this article when I go through some of it Bennett to Americans we want stability but not to states so his his goal for his meeting first with with with Blinken and then with buttons for the Americans to understand that the Prime Minister's line is to preserve stability without taking reality changing steps so before we dig in the article just a summary is that on the one hand he said we will not expand settlements and the so-called West Bank so Judea Samaria we won't expand those settlements but we're not going to negotiate with Mahmoud Abbas either leader of the Palestinian Authority so we're not going to consider two states and we're not going to expand settlements we're just going to keep the status quo right now and that's recent so let's let's just go through some of this article in the Jerusalem Post so Israel will not negotiate with Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas while prime minister enough Tully Bennett is in office a diplomatic source said on Wednesday just yesterday been in this in Washington for a series of high-level meetings commenting with one in the White House with US President Joe Biden which he plans to focus on the Iranian threat the Prime Minister seeks to reach shared principles on countering Iran with Biden preferably with a public statement such as never letting Iran attain a nuclear weapon instead of just not on my watch as Biden said in the past Bennett's goal for his meeting with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said to take place after press time was press time yesterday was for the Americans to understand that the Prime Minister's line is to preserve stability without taking reality changing steps all right just gonna stop there and let's talk about Iran for a moment you see what's happening in Afghanistan you see the religious fanaticism of the Taliban and now afresh of Isis and we've seen it of al-qaeda and Israel sees it on a regular basis from Hezbollah which is funded by Iran and Hamas which is also helped by Iran and yes you have many Iranians who are more moderate Muslims many who become secular but are forced outwardly to live and look like Muslims many who in the underground church have become Christians many who want to see the overthrow of the radical Islamic government which has led to Iran since the late 1970s beginning with Ayatollah Khomeini so there are many that want to see reform come there are many that want to see change come but right now the leadership of Iran the most religious leadership is also fanatical and there is because they are Shiites and for example in Saudi Arabia they're Sunni Iraq is Shia and Sunni but most of the Islamic world is Sunni the my the minority is Shia but many of them have an end-time mentality kind of their own eschatological viewpoint and they're they're waiting for the the final Imam to be revealed the Mahdi the their their Redeemer and in with that they have kind of more of an end-of-the-world mentality that other Muslims might have so you're dealing with religious fanatics you're dealing with those who consider Israel to be their archenemy and the Jewish people living on Muslim land so it's like someone takes off with a man's wife and is now sleep with her and putting it on TV hey look at us we're going in this hotel together look at us and and flaunting it well Israel is flawed they're living in Muslim stolen land it's completely illegitimate this is some of the mindset now you later on get nuclear bombs you say yeah well Israel could fight back yeah you're talking about millions of deaths you're you're talking about utterly horrific consequences if you say oh hey I was just prophesied it's gonna happen number one don't ever say something like that so lightly so blithely well it's just gonna happen no not when you're talking about millions of lives no number you're talking about one life little millions of lives you know that's that's one thing that always has shocked and grieved me or as long as I can remember a shocked and grieved me is when we talk about end time events so casually yeah and then this will happen a third of the population will drive will die it's like wait wait a second you throw that out just say that so let's let's not minimize the realities here and and the the potential loss of human life absolutely staggering and yes Israel has nuclear weapons and there's no way that Israel is going to use them in an offensive way Israel would only use nuclear weapons if their own country was was about to be destroyed by nuclear weapons or was attacked in that way but you have others that would use nukes look if if you have a suicide if if you have suicide bombers if you have people who train for years for the 9-11 suicide mission I mean went to Pensacola Florida and went to the Naval School and and and learned to fly planes and did all that specifically worked for years to get to that point I mean think of how long Osama bin Laden planned this out the amount of years the amount of these people living double lives to get to that moment which culminates with them killing themselves along with many others or as I've read that there was a long list of young men in Gaza waiting to be given the privilege of blowing themselves up and then of course Islamic theology being martyred in the cause of Allah and and going to paradise and enjoying 70 virgins and so on and forever perpetual virgins and feasting and set I mean that's that's the dream what a demented what a demented vision but if you have people waiting online to sign up I watched a powerful documentary about Iran and Ayatollah Khomeini and the rise of radical Islam in the modern world and there's there's one man and he would regularly visit the the cemetery where his two brothers were buried they died fighting against Iraq even though Iraq was Islamic Iraq was not as religious and Iraq was led by Saddam Hussein so this was a holy war Iran against Iraq was a holy war and two of the brothers were killed and what they would they would do is they they recruited kids I mean 13 14 years old by the thousands and their job would just be to run in front of the army and the Iraqi soldiers would just have to mow them down so psychologically it was difficult to do that for them to slaughter so many kids and and then it was taxing with weapons and ammunition and everything like that but that was their job run first and get slaughtered by the thousands it was a terribly costly war so this brother is there morning he goes regularly to mourn this was a documentary from years ago he goes regularly to the cemetery to mourn why what blemish was there in me he wonders what sin was there in me that Allah did not allow me to be martyred and my brothers were martyred I mean this this is the mentality France it's a very very different mentality there were there were terrorists in Spain it was after 9-11 a horrific terror attack in Spain that took many many lives and they were telling the people there while you'll never defeat us is they said you love life we love death now I've seen Muslim leaders renounce that I've seen Muslim leaders I'm talking about devout Muslims and conversations in Arabic translated to English and where did we get this idea from and this is so perverted and wrong and loving death and and others renouncing the suicide bombing so you have other voices in Islam but you have enough of these who fanatically embrace these principles and yes when these people get born again and many are large numbers of Muslims are coming to faith all around the world and and I I don't doubt for a second that behind the scenes in Afghanistan God is working in ways beyond what we know and I've heard some amazing stories secondhand so someone from Afghanistan shared this with a friend who then shared it with me so tell about actually an Afghan a Muslim came to faith and sharing their miraculous story and I mean wild stories they shared it with a friend who then shared it with me so it's you know reliable sources but I have no doubt that God's moving mightily behind the scenes I have no doubt that many are coming to faith I don't doubt that at all I also don't doubt the level of fanaticism that's there and although there is a possible way to read the Quran and to read Islamic theology in a way that emphasizes peace and coexistence the larger argument through history has been that you see things by way of context conquest that Islam grows by the sword by military expansion as as my friend dr. James White is pointed out that Islam begins with Muhammad as a spiritual leader and then he becomes a political leader and then he becomes a military leader and therefore the three have always joined together in Islam seamlessly like we say there is no separation between Islam and state between mosque and state in conservative Islamic countries so friends this is what we're up against this is what Israel's up against this is why Iran remains a major issue but God is not sitting on his throne ringing his hands he is ruling and reigning and looking to us to cry out to him to work together for the redemption of several billion people on the planet okay we come back gonna talk to you about a dangerous error in Christian science it's the line of fire with your host activist author international speaker and theologian dr.

Brown dot org do that and you will be blessed the meeting between Prime Minister Bennett and President Biden that was supposed to take place it would have been 6 p.m. today because of the Kabul attack has been put off until tomorrow okay I want to get to a call or two before we're done but first I was talking to a friend colleague John Bernice Jewish voice broadcast longtime friend one of our board members and we were talking about an error that's become increasingly common in Christian Zionism that says that you do not share the gospel with Jewish people now that this is not the time for that this this it's not the error for it it's when the church is quote taken out it's what many believe that if Jews get saved now it is as one Christian Zionist leader said by revelation not by proclamation of course our answer is the revelation caused by a proclamation yeah God can reveal himself in different ways like he did to Saul of Tarsus and certain Muslims at certain times but the revelation comes through proclamation Romans 10 how can they hear without a preacher all of us that God saved so many of us Jewish believers someone shared the gospel with us I know some that had sovereign visitations but for every one of those I could tell you about a hundred or a thousand that got saved by someone sharing the gospel with them I spoke with some of them when there's the controversy about God TV launching shalanu a Hebrew speaking gospel outreach network in Israel for the first time it's gonna be on TV all Hebrew speaking etc and was being produced the vast majority of the content local Christian Arabs local messianic Jews and so on and outcry against it and there were Christian Zionists who spoke out against it what why are you speaking out against Israeli messianic Jews sharing the good news of you sure with their own people in Hebrew in Israel shouldn't you stand behind that you might not get involved with that because as a Christian you're saying hey we're standing with Israel supporting with Israel but we're we're engaged in humanitarian work etc and we're not seeking to proselytize but just politically we want to stand with Israel and raise Christian support for his okay I understand that like if you were having asked the local Jewish community to come and say hey we want to show our support and solidarity for Israel well you're not gonna do that and then preach the gospel then for 45 minutes that would be insulting and wrong and a setup that would be that would be deceptive it's one thing to say hey we follow Jesus we want everyone to follow Jesus but that's not what this meeting is about this meeting is to stand with you great go ahead I understand that but I spoke to some of these people firsthand Christian scientists leaders and and what they said shocked me that at the end God will open their eyes at the end Jewish people will be safe but not now I mean not now Paul said in every generation there's a remnant according to grace be it a Paul be it a me or John Burness or the hundreds of thousands from what we know of Jewish believers around the world what just at the end some magical moment happens without the witness of believing Jews and Christians for for years and years and years and years and years you see what's so dangerous about that what's so dangerous is you don't share the gospel with people today what's so dangerous is that people that need to hear about you sure don't hear about him what's so dangerous is that if you were a Christian friend of mine and you had this idea before I was saved you wouldn't share the gospel with me and I die in sin and be lost what a horrible teaching what a horrible doctrine and the gospel remains Romans 16 to the Jew first and also to the Gentile so it is a real dangerous really wrong really heretical belief and as many of my friends in Jewish ministry say this is the most anti-semitic thing you could do is withhold the good news of the Messiah from a Jewish person so this is still there and in certain circles it's growing so what do you do about it pray for the salvation of Jewish people ask God to use you to share the good news with Jewish people support ministries like ours that are on the front lines of reaching Jewish people with the good news yeah and you say what about everybody else what do you think we're doing most of the rest of the time our own ministry our own ministry which supports missionaries around the world and which by God's grace through our schools has has raised up and sent out many missionaries so we have our missions movement fire international when you support our ministry when you give to ask dr. Brown the first fruits of what comes in every month goes to reach people around the world in missions and Jewish people first fruits goes right there we support it's been hundreds of thousands of dollars and more over the years that we have poured in by your with your help okay so we're active around the world I I've been I've been to Israel what 16 times I've been out of the United States over 150 our missionaries are all over the world but we don't neglect Israel and the gospel man that is to do first so anyway it's a serious error it's a very serious error it must be combative all right let's go to the phones we'll go over to Joseph in Rocky Mountain Georgia welcome to the line of fire thanks for having me sure yes I guess I had a more of a more of a comment but also includes the question so of course with the rise of anti-semitism even you know have theologically implicated a Jewish Antichrist my main question is what what is your position on the the theory wolf will call it of the Islamic Antichrist as being figure as we approach and as we are coming through yeah it's I really don't know who the Antichrist will be in terms of nationality there have been teachings for decades that the Antichrist will be European there are some who believe he'll be a Jew and and to me that's not that's not necessarily an anti-semitic notion rather that the Jews are waiting for the Messiah and if there seemed to be a messianic figure rise up among the Jewish people that brought world peace then obviously that could be an Antichrist figure he wouldn't be the true Messiah but Joel Richardson's idea and others that there could be an Islamic Antichrist let me just say this it has as much credibility as any other theory to me and I honestly I don't in my view I don't believe there's enough scripture to tell us in enough detail so that we could really surmise or guess but one thing about the Joel Richardson theory is it comes up with some plausible ideas of how there could be a third temple built and where we currently have the Dome of the Rock because if Israel and Israel is no intention of doing this but if Israel demolished the Dome of the Rock and started to build third temple that's the end of the world basically that is the final world war not just World War three I mean the the war to end all wars the whole world would be an absolute terminal uproar and there would be no like okay we got through the bad time now we just move on so right how could that happen now some say well if there is a future temple that'll be built it'll be built elsewhere but to my knowledge scripture does speak of a future temple in Jerusalem I don't mean a in a millennial Kingdom built by the Lord or blessed by the Lord but I mean before the Lord returns it seems to me from scripture that there will be a third temple built so the Joel Richardson theory is well an Islamic Antichrist could make this arrangement with Israel and say listen we will give you this area and you can build your temple and that would seem miraculous I mean that would how to something like that happen and then if the Muslim world would agree to it the Jewish world and if you can have harmony there and so so who know in other words you got to connect a lot of different pieces almost the different puzzles and make them fit and when I first got saved you know I heard it taught a certain way and okay this is the Antichrist and then the left behind series popularizes it a certain way but honestly and not to be agnostic on this if the Bible gives us more info I simply don't see enough information in the Bible to give me any indication that I can say with any clarity who the Antichrist will be again not identifying a person obviously can't do that now but be it European or Jewish or Islamic or something else some other thing we're not thinking about don't know but I do know this sir that what we've seen with the pandemic with the push for vaccination even the vaccinations are good I'm not saying either way but with people saying you can't do this or that without being vaccinated if you have a real world crisis I mean a real world crisis far worse than the pandemic and now you can't buy or sell without certain things but here's the one he's gonna fix the economy he's gonna there's no more starvation and no more famine and and you just have to go along with this and submit to this one world government a whole lot of people will do it you could see and especially if he had then miraculous powers behind him Wow look at that all right friends that's where we keep our eyes on Jesus the true Christ the true Messiah keep your eyes on him and you'll never follow a false Messiah back with you tomorrow all your questions you've got questions we've got answers Oh another program powered by the truth network
