What's it like to be part of the people that is hated around the world with your neighbor's calling for your execution stage for the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologians Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown. What a privilege and honor it is to be with you on thoroughly Jewish Thursday right here on the line of fire. This is Michael Brown and it is thoroughly Jewish Thursday, 86634 to is the number to call any Jewish related question or comment you have give me a call if you are one of those who post on YouTube some type of Jewish conspiratorial comment, some type of evil is real. Type comment, what, why not call in and enlighten everyone why not call in a way where you and I can have a friendly discussion about these things. I'm laughing because you you would not believe some of the stuff that comes in and we got a lot of things to talk about terrorism issues anti-Semitism issues other worldviews that ties with Israel and will give you some Jewish insights and thoughts as we go as as always but I spoke in London about this. What two Saturdays ago and then in Alabama last Saturday I spoke about the irrational, the diabolical nature of anti-Semitism. I explained how anti-Semitism is the world's longest hatred, the world's most widespread hatred, the world's most irrational hatred and even over a prolonged period of time. The world's most violent hatred. I explained how you cannot possibly connect all the dots. Logically most things when you have some type of uprising some type of unusual phenomenon some type of attitude some type of mindset that spreads you can normally figure out where it comes from or how it spreads. But when you have let's say you just have a disease and it breaks out simultaneously in five different parts of the world among five different population groups that that have no demographic connection and there's been no physical contact between any of those people, and anyone else that's touch the other groups, it becomes more mysterious when you have something like this happening over centuries becomes even more mysterious. That's just a fraction of the diabolical nature of anti-Semitism is no logical rational explanation. The ultimate oxidation is what the devil hates the Jews and wants to exterminate the Jewish people and if you can do that makes God to a liar because God is on record in the word is saying that that will never happen that he will preserve his people Israel to the end, no matter what. Yes, under discipline, but preserved by love, not because of our goodness, but because of his goodness, not because of anything we've done, but because of his love for the patriarchs and the promises that he gave to them so his promises remain steadfast if Satan can wipe out the Jewish people look in Jeremiah 31 versus 35 to 37.

If Satan can wipe out the Jewish people. That makes God into our life so we can't do that while a Jewish Jerusalem must welcome the Messiah back according to the Scriptures. Well, if you can't wipe out the Jewish people keep them out of Jerusalem and keep Jerusalem out of their hands. If you can't do that. Keep Jewish people away from Jesus, you understand now the nature of the spiritual battle that we are fighting 866-348-7884 is the number to call with your Jewish related questions.

Dr. Brown.org. Click on the Israel manner or call our office at seven 047-8237 the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 86. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks friends for joining us on the line of fire is thoroughly Jewish Thursday 866-34-TRUTH before I get to your calls and usually questions again.

Glad to get to them Dennis Prager last week had a very interesting article Dennis Prager's always very thoughtful and worth reading. I do Jews, Christians and Muslims believe in the same God and and here's how he answers the question, he knows the subtleties and he studied Islam and Christianity as well so he knows the subtleties and how you could say yes the same but not the same or dogmatically answer with yes or no.

But here are the questions that that he asks services. How do I know if another person believes in the same God that I do that I asked the following three questions. One, do you believe in the God of Israel is those who cannot answer this question in the affirmative, do not believe the same God, the believing Jews, the majority believing Christians do is for Muslims.

They should have no problem answering in the affirmative, but in our time.

Many wouldn't let second question, he would ask, does the God you believe in Judge. The moral behavior of every human being and then three. Do you believe in the God who gave the 10 Commandments. He said that what about people who say yes to these questions, but have additional theological beliefs. They believe in the same God as those who answer yes but have no additional beliefs present for the Christians who believe the God of Israel but also believed by definition in the Christian Trinity. They believe in the same God is Jews and other non-Christians who solely believe in these three criteria, since I think they do is of the same would hold true for a Muslim who believes in these three notions but also believes that the Quran is the only full valid revelation with or not one uses these three criteria. We should all at least 2000 same one believes in God tells us nothing about the goblin believes it. Regarding faith, that is what matters.

That's Dennis Prager's perspective certainly an interesting perspective. All right. Growing up as a Jewish person even though I went to school non-Jews and is very good friends that were non-Jews and we all hung out together. We played sports together, went to the same school. Now the little community I lived in cold Harbor trial which is part of Island Park, which itself is is a small town right near Long Beach, which many people know the south shore of Long Island so Island Park was the name of the place I grew up, but with Island Park would have our own ZIP Code report upon Park ZIP Code within Island Park. There is little community called Harbour Island was maybe 300 families and when I grew up Harbour Island was almost all Jewish but still religious Jews is much more of a secular fairly nominal Jewish community.

So in keeping with that on Sabbath services Saturday morning. My dad would sometimes get an emergency call ape. We need you because that they they did not have the required number of men called the million which this means number that means 10 F at least 10 men for the prayer services to be official and is it recognized by God to oversimplify that sometimes get an emergency call.

He just get dressed, quick, no get cleaned up quick and head down to the synagogue so they have a minute, but they had to build in Annex a for the high holy days because hundreds were gonna come for that. So that was typical of the Jewish community in which I I grew up.

Nonetheless, even though we were friends with all of our non-Jewish friends even though I don't remember hearing anti-Jewish jokes growing up.

Even though I don't remember us cracking jokes about the go.

I am the Gentiles, looking down at them and is a little older, my best friends were non-Jews. So even though that was the case, there is still the mentality this still the mentality of us and them.

There is Jewish people, and there is the rest of the world. That's just how you feel. Growing up, and if you are more religious you feel even more because you're more isolated and living by the commandments and therefore more separated from the rest of the society by your your your address, your appearance, your lifestyle, but there's still a perception of us and them have often said it, but as a boy I thought Christian Gentile, Protestant, Catholic, were virtually synonymous because the Gentiles I knew were Christian and they were as nominal as I was there and I will Christians I was nominal Jew we just that was all, one blur Gentile Christian, Catholic, prosthetic us we need is some difference there but it was all the same as us and them well when you live in the land of Israel. It's a little different dynamic. You have many Arabs living among 6 million Jews one and 1/2 million Arabs are Palestinians, so you do actually have a very mixed society. They have Jews from around the world. So you have Jews who were dark skinned Jews were light-skinned Jews or Asian views through Western user. African Jews are Middle Eastern you have that melting pot then you're surrounded by radical Muslims and you always live in an environment where it seems the world is always against you that everything is Israel's fault from the Palestinian perspective. They are the oppressed people. This monster Goliath is oppressing the poor little David's and and obviously as far as military might, Israel versus Hamas or Palestinian Authority. I would be Goliath versus David but when you look at Israel, surrounded by hostile world, then the equation changes but for the Palestinian perspective there the oppressed minority.

So check this out. A statue of NASA. Nelson Mandela has been unveiled, where in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

Listen to this report meet until Stan Stevens. Nelson Mandela has been unveiled in the West Bank city of Ramallah, visiting with my feminine intent is to see Santa getting out at night � the relationship between them and back right so it also sends a message that Nelson Mandela, the freedom fighter against apartheid in South Africa is a hero to the Palestinian people, by the way he's been quoted out of context, as if he bashed Israel in the past and that's that's a complete quote out of context it stops the quote midway through his speech and does not listen to the rest of what he says is is really fairly blatant to do that it in any case of this would be the Palestinian perception their freedom fighters.

They are fighting against evil apartheid Israel and that's why you have a statue 9 foot statue of Nelson Mandela, the Israeli perspective there surrounded by radical Muslims who want to kill them, who incite all types of hatred and violence against them, who believe that killing a Jew is a wonderful way to to get entrance to the world to come to have favor as a as a Muslim. So it's this is what Israel is surrounded via a got some quotes it here we go. We just do this quickly.

Former governor of the Palestinian monetary authority. Dr. Fouad the say-so global Judaism is a virus.

This is from this month.

April global Judaism is a virus. It's behind the financial crisis and it's in line with the protocols of the elders is on it's just a little summary and then Jordanian cleric Abu Cantata of the steely. He states that Jews use blood for Passover matzoh to the state. Still, still believe these things.

That's what Israel is surrounded by people who believe they are responsible for all the suffering in the world. People who believe that they are the evil occupiers. People who believe that there's a Jewish conspiracy to take over the world control the banks control the money control the media and what are the protocols of the Elders of Zion say this is a a forged document, probably by Russian secret police over hundred years old, which claims to record conversations overheard in the cemetery where word group of Jews were secretly meeting to plot taking over the world.

It's believed to this day, and in much of the Muslim world and even outside of the Muslim world by by Jew haters and things like that and what is it what is it say yeah that this the group of 300 Jewish leaders secretly waiting for the right opportunity to rise up and take over the role and what are they gonna do. I read was finalized. Bring the whole world and subjection to the hit the Hindu god Vishnu. Say what complete other total nonsense absurd sums like Satan safe you believe a lie will make it really crazy. That's what Israel is up against the right back with you because 866-34-TRUTH. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice aboard cultural and spiritual revolution.

The voice you heard singing, leaving us, and I was thoroughly Jewish Thursday, my dear friend and colleague Paul Wilbur any Jewish related question.

The phones are open we go to the phones out Washington DC Lee welcome to the line of fire and Mike are doing well thank you?

Or you think the possibility among the Jewish community and African-American yet it's it's a bit of a mystery what let me say this is not a total mystery, but it historically, it's a bit of a mystery because the Jewish population in America African-American population America. These were populations that were discriminated against. Obviously with and have slavery for the Jews in America. But if you think of Jews today is very prosperous and influential. It was always like that in America, go back to the to the early 20th century, and you couldn't get into the some of the best universities. Just as a student if you read you. I I was talking to one gentleman whose mother died a few years back in her late 90s made last year or so and when she was 16.

So say 85 years ago she was going to go to the beach for her birthday and when she got there.

The sign said. However, Blacks were described colored Negroes, whatever. No Negroes, no Jews, so there's there's been a common history of persecution, Jews and slaves out of Egypt.

Jews hated around the world.

African-American suffering so terribly here in America and in the early days of the civil rights movement.

Jews marked our art marched arm in arm. Rabbi Graham, Joshua Henschel, Marczyk, it was Dr. Martin Luther King. Those those things happen. And yet today there's a real's deep divide in many ways and think of the socially American Jews overwhelmingly vote Democratic everyone over 80% and over 90% of African-Americans vote Democrat so you think there's there's a lot in common in terms of of certain ideas and shared values, but I think ultimately that and in again it's it's speculation here. I know why Jews have gone the more liberal way more secular Jews a more humanistic therefore there pro-abortion.

Therefore, there pro-redefining marriage. Therefore, they are concerned about any type of right wing religious government that they think would with that oppress them or or take away their rights where black Americans vote Democratic. They tend to be more conservative amenities and tend to be pro-life and and and profamily. And yet, it's that the social issues and what they feel the social benefits of the Democratic Party that they vote in that direction but II think ultimately and I could be wrong. Honestly that you end up with a bit of a situation that's perceived as the haves and the have-nots that that it seems that the Jews are better educated and the Jews are more prosperous and the Jews are higher in no there there living and again I'm giving grow stereotypes are still here living in the nice suburbs and the Blacks living in more difficult parts of the inner city again giving over exaggerated stereotypes, but if that's the feeling and the perception then there's going to be some type of hostility and you got Jewish sinful flesh, they can be looked down at somebody else or categorizing negatively and he got black sinful flesh that could judge others and seem to have more. It could be that simple. There may be more to it though you do not give any any opinion on it may agree with regard social issue that Linda no African-American Jew, well off what I have with regard regard for their native country that they have a young African-American I African-American I find a lot (we desire to reach out an employee of the epic new laser group of them is difficult. The fact that the stereotyping of the counter you approach you feel it let me in, and that cabochon lot African-Americans immediately check out the perfection of yet, that the thing that so the end that were not talking about say reaching sitting down with an ultra, ultra Orthodox Jew that is very much absorbed with. Keep the commandments and living in insular life.

No raising his or her family and the way in accordance with the Torah. Jewish tradition which are not just your average more secular Jew. I think if you're in the right environment that most most Jews in that regard would pride themselves on being open minded and we pride themselves on being tolerant and not discriminatory because we know what it's like to be discriminated against as a people and I think if you're in a setting like a college setting or working together shoulder to shoulder in the workplace that the division socket to be there that the divisions between African-Americans and and an American Jews really aren't are going to be there because of the end of the shared values of of wanting to be embracing and and so on.

In both recognizing the wrongness of discrimination or judging people by religion or skin color but it just it seems to just be somehow larger than that. And look, let's not rule the devil left the devil.

He also both men I look at for example the extraordinarily high percentage of African-American babies getting aborted and I look at that is Satan's war on African-Americans. The same with prison population and what liquor I know the societal issues, and you can describe blame here and there but I look at is the devil trying to wipe out a people look in point of fact, African-Americans tend to be much more people of faith, a religious opened open to the gospel out there and then her white counterparts right so there's I see the devil attacking in that regard, and on the Jewish regard, the devil is always trying to exterminate destroy Jewish people and I think I as for me, it's interesting. I've always felt a special connection with with my African-American brothers and sisters in the Lord.

I've often talked about just enjoying much more preaching and African-American church. The typical white church/airlock yeah and edit sincere evidence that there is that the joke always is a drummer like to clap on the upbeat ghetto but there's there's a certain shared soul is almost like a depth of life history and experience and so I've always resonated and felt a deep connection and all it could just be the enemy working against it will behave and continue to build bridges and hopefully at least in the body and the church literature that unity and added to many messianic variations of many African-Americans there too late. They really do feel with shared connections.

Thank you for the call.

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 thank you thank you for joining us on this.

Michael Brown. I am blessed and delighted to be with you all. You know, a lot of things happening in the secular world and I am not to get into it because we try to keep her Jewish focus. Learn to say this quickly. When I wrote my book outlasting the gay revolution came out September of last year I said the gay activists will overplay their hands that the movement that was built as a movement of victims will become victimizers movement that was built on the backs of those who were bullied for being LGBT that those very people leaving that movement will be, have become the bullies that Jackie was will overplay his hand in that the transgender emphasis will go too far and it'll get to the point with people so I would describe what what are we doing this is moral, social, cultural insanity, and that's were at right now. I was listening to a news report and the the host the most of every MSNBC or what the liberal station article he was saying, hey, there's a real push back and he was noting that the petition against target to see where it's it's at right now the petition to boycott target in a little over a week where's it at 978,776 signatures are reached almost a million signatures in a little bit over a week that's that's extraordinary extraordinary statement to target saying you gone too far and the pushback on social media, video after video and testimony after testimony, story after story, of course, of course, and consequently Gomer has a very interesting to say. He said look at as as an attorney and getting involved with victims of sexual abuse. It's well over 20% of the female population has reported being sexually abused, including rape, but not only rape and that's only a part of.

How many have actually been abused a rape that never come forward and report with the reports aren't believed any say okay and contrast those identifies transgender or maybe two or 3/1000, as opposed to two or 300,000 he said. So why are you going to disregard the sensitivities of the women who been a breed abused or raped at to to accommodate the two or 3/1000, that are struggling with their gender identity and again it's it's at that point.

It's at that moment.

We have been sounding the alarm. We have been equipping you. We have been for me not to hate others, but to do what's right not to despise others, but to act with moral sanity and spiritual clarity and and how about this one with calm in the sense that too much to ask a little common sense. So that's where we are today friends and as distressing as the moment is it's also a healthy moment 8663 for 87884. I am going to take some questions being posted right now on Facebook and Twitter as well.

Normally I don't have time to do that on a Thursday, but I'm going to take some of those on a Thursday as well. I want to talk about anti-Semitism in the UK. I wanted give you some Jewish insights Jewish ways of looking at things.

Looking at the Scriptures.

Perhaps some things you haven't known or seen before. As we have a great time together on thoroughly Jewish Thursday and any Outlook I'm looking at a report from times of Israel and spiraling anti-Semitism row labor suspends Livingston for saying Hitler backed Zionism. Speaking of can Livingston you anti-Semitism in Europe and around the world continues to swirl out of control in ways just where was the Holocaust remorse is bad news but it reminds us of the spiritual realities. It reminds us of why we stand join Dr. Michael Brown, along with messianic Jewish pastor Scott Melvin for unique behind the scenes tour of Israel. February 25 through March 6, 2017. Space is limited so accepting applications on a first-come first-served basis.

The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution there again is Dr. Michael Brown over on Facebook. I of favorite things to do. We have a new book that comes in we take preorders and it's a special kind of collectors edition.

From the very first printing.

It's the book we number the copies that I can assign somebody gets number one sibling is number 20. Some of them make it number 185, depending on how many of these come in pre-ordered books and I I signed them. They are numbered and put the Scripture reference in there, so I've posted a picture on Facebook. We got our advance copies of the greatest controversy in of the book will be released to the general public next week. Let's see Tuesday of next week, May 3 to be released so you can order your copy however you like, but thrilled to make that available and right after the show to sit down and start signing those. I also post on Facebook.

If you have questions that you like to ask Jewish related questions having to take some of those as well as on Twitter so let me before I go to your questions. If you are called question 866-34-TRUTH Deuteronomy chapter 29 verse 29 says this the secret things belong to the Lord our God, to Yahweh our God, but those things that are revealed, they belong to us and to our children forever to observe to do all the words of this law. This teaching this Torah now. When I came to faith my perception of the law was negative negative negative and the idea was thank God were not under the law, and boy how difficult it was. In all those commandments and and all the technical things in the clean and the unclean, pure and impure anon anon anon anon anon anon, and of course we have a new and better covenant in life in the spirit in Yeshua is the ultimate goal that God was moving towards. But when I first started talking with religious Jews. I realize while their perspective is very different there perspective was out of all the peoples of the earth. God gave us his Torah that we have the special gift and it certainly reflected in Psalm 19 and Psalm 119. In fact it if you read Romans seven Paul says, in itself, the law is holy, just, and good spiritual promise sinful nature, and part is that the reason the tour was given was to expose human sin to expose flesh and to get us in a posture recognizing our need for redemption and need for atonement, need for a Savior, but it's very interesting that there is a traditional Jewish interpretation of Deuteronomy 2929 that says this instrument on 20 in Hebrew to specifications one different. The the traditional Jewish interpretation. One of them says this the secret things belong to the Lord our God and the revealed things to us and our children forever is to observe to do all the words of this Torah, so the the grammatical interpretation those natural interpretation. The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but that which is open theft is open revealed loss to us to our children to to do all the words of this law forever, but there's a Jewish interpretation that reads a little differently and and even puts the emphasis even more on the privilege the honor of keeping the Torah. The secret things once Laura got and the revealed things to buy for us is observing the Torah and of course that is a wonderful zealous attitude and in acts 21. Jacob James is like their tens of thousands of Jews who believe Yeshua the Messiah and there was also the law the promise the law itself cannot say the loan itself cannot bring us into the messianic kingdom. The Torah, in itself, can can, not help us to deal with the ultimate root cause of sin in our lives, and therefore we must have a Messiah and that's why Paul says in Romans three that faith is not impossible. It establishes it all right.

Let me answer some questions that have been posted. Let's see here on Twitter.

Here are a couple of of questions. I really just get back to the right page that I posted on Twitter and send an answer on the air an answer on the air and and therefore I certainly hope you're listening because of an answering on Twitter gospel tracts and Noah both want to know about how to just typically interpret Psalm Isaiah 53 rather and gospel tracts also want to know how Jews typically interpret Psalm 22 storm Psalm 22. There are wide ranges of Jewish interpretation, but there are two primary ways that Psalm 22 is read one. It's a Psalm of David, or just an ancient suffering Israelite delivered from the jaws of death and you would presume that it's an Israelite leader because of the dimensions sees me of the of the deliverance into the praise that it brings to the engineer.

That's one reason I I press the messianic application but just an individual Psalm of of suffering and deliverance.

There's another interpretation that says it is a poetic figurative description of Israel's history that it's not just one person, one time, but it is a picture of Israel's history, and ultimately delivered from the jaws of death, to the praise of the ends of the earth. It is not typically interpret it messianic.

We however there is a traditional writing called to secure a body. These were Sabbath sermons from different portions of the Hebrew Scriptures outside of the Torah and will probably from the eighth or ninth century, and there is a section really over a couple of chapters chapter 36 being the key one that speaks a lot about the suffering Messiah and the language from Psalm 22 is put on the suffering size� He suffers in heaven, and somehow bears the burden and the pain of the Jewish people on earth that his suffering preserves them and is important for their redemption. Other than that it is not primarily interpreted as a messianic Psalm. As for Isaiah 53 it the passage begins and 5213 and continues on 253 1252 13 on through 5312 and the most common interpretation is that it refers to the nation of Israel. There are some ancient midrash trick, homiletical commentaries or I should say citations of Isaiah 53 some flying into the Messiah.

Some applying it to the righteous within Israel, some applying it to Moses or others, and there are Jews. To this day who believe it. Speaking of the suffering Messiah sums a part of it is speaking of a suffering Messiah and others of the triumphant Messiah.

Some would argue that it speak of the Messiah suffering in heaven on our behalf, but the primary interpretation that you'll find not universally been almost universally, is that speaking of the nation of Israel or the righteous remnant. Within the nation of Israel and that Isaiah 53 contains the testimony of the Gentile nations. The kings of the nations 5215 says that what we had not heard we we were now hearing things and shutting our mouths because of that soap. Isaiah 53, one that starts with who can who is believe what we have heard our report is early out what we have heard so they succeed.

That's the the Gentile nations the Kings speaking and the Kings are saying. Boy we misjudged Israel, but we thought Israel scattered among the nations was suffering for it. Since we didn't realize that Israel was, was really suffering for our sins that that we oppressed Israel and that's where they were suffering that would be the primary way that it is understood that the nations near the Kings will be astonished when God's favor for Israel is revealed at the end of the age. Now they would also point to Isaiah beginning the 41st chapter that repeatedly Israel spoken of as God serving my servant Israel Jacob my servant. Isaiah 44 through 55. It's a major theme. There are so that tells us it's Israel it's Jacob. The big problem with that of course is that the service righteous and his suffering terribly. If it spoke of the nation as a whole like they couldn't work because if it was Israel as a whole that was righteous, then that would mean that Israel would be the head, not the tail. This will be blessed and cursed. Otherwise, after throughout the Sinai covenant. We are sure those things, the blessings and the curses.

Leviticus 26 in Deuteronomy 28. I can't possibly work part that's one of the reasons that its target is the righteous remnant within Israel there righteous and yet suffering is the sins of the nations.

God raises them up.

Gobble the nations will see God is with Israel in the problem there is that the suffering of the servant in Isaiah 53 brings healing by his wounds were healed. That is not the case with the righteous remnant is the righteous remnant suffered in exile did bring blessing to the poor judgment on a soul breaks down ultimately must be interpreted for the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown to the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown Zionist movement meetings with his ministration talking about rule so can Livingston claiming that Hitler backed Zion of the former Mayor of London said that he has brought his Labor Party into disrepute. A collie calls him a Nazi apologist and a disgusting racist. This is some of European anti-Semitism. This is some of what is dealt with these myths.

These horrible libels there people who widely believe them and then often take out their anger and hatred against Jewish people in literally deadly ways. Let's let's not listen to number five. More about what's happening in England seek profusely apologize for the sake he made a mistake and apologized for them. BC acknowledges that they were anti-Semitic. Do you still maintaining would not be critical of Israel and its policy on outcry with the top sheet on. I've been in the Labor Party for 47 years I've never had anyone say in a candidate committee.

I met a lot of excitement around attributional Palestinians, but I've never had someone behind you see to relocating Israel to America. She talked about what Hitler did being legal and she talked about the accused Manning sees the way Jews not Israelis or Israel.

You didn't find that to be anti-Semitic. The article begun to remember when Hitler won the election in 1930. Policy and laws reduce should be moved to Israel. He was supporting arms on oil and niacin banged up killing million Jews of the simple current enrollment. It is good night last night.

These comments are time and is not a brutal Israeli attack on the Palestinian on this one stop crime that virtually no one in the racially your verticals always come at best help is usually between 60 and hundred Palestinians killed and agrees writing. Yes, that was can Livingston. He has been suspended by his party, labor because of those dastardly comments and they were speaking about another parliamentarian gnaws Shaw, who was suspended few days back over Facebook post that she made which supported the relocation of Israelis to the US a so this is this is what's out there.

This is in the media. This is what's being talked about. It's destructive. It's deadly all yellow Hitler this news. Hitler supported Zionism and yet existed since the Israelis are so brutal towards the Palestinians and that's the issue. Let's face the fact it goes back to a demonic anti-Semitism and that's why you have it across cultures. That's what you have it. Across the centuries. That's what you have it in every demographic you can imagine Jew hatred being a common denominator. Alright let me go back to see exit some Twitter questions, let me go over to Facebook where some questions are posted as well. Let's see here. Okay, slide down here you go Julie, a Jewish friend says that there is never a Jewish concept of Messiah that included having that Messiah be anything other than a man born to earthly parents. The Jewish Messiah would be a man not a God man Jews reject the deification of any human being.

Julie, I also reject the deification of a human being. I absolutely embrace the biblical testimony that God can tabernacle among us that the eternal God, who is complex and his unity can sit enthroned in heaven can fill the universe with his presence and can tabernacle among us in human form, if he so chooses to Hans John 114 the word became flesh does not say God became human or human became God that would imply that God ceased to be God in heaven without a human being became God rather the worst which is God. And yet with God the Word became flesh and tabernacle among us literally pitched his tent among us, and through the world who makes God known.

We now understand God better. Now the concept of the word revealing God. That's a very Jewish concept called the member in Aramaic of the idea of of God, his presence dwelling among us is shaking his dwelling presence. That's a Jewish concept. The idea of God being complex in his unity. That's also Jewish concept. This fee wrote that the tense throughout her emanations, divine emanations, that's fine Jewish mysticism, but as to the question of the Messiah. There are attacks that speak of a highly exalted Messiah and not a divine Messiah, but a highly exalted Messiah Messiah of even angelic status I get into it in great detail in volume 2 of answering Jewish objections to Jesus buying two of answering Jewish objections to Jesus, as well as in shorter form and the real kosher Jesus. You can read more if you will Messiah.com and look up objections you see that projections Jews don't believe in a divine Messiah through history, there have been pictures of a highly exalted Messiah. Yes, otherwise the main Jewish concept is that the Messiah will be a man like us and will be raised up and exalted by God but the Hebrew Scriptures point to the divine nature of the Messiah. There are passages, for example, Isaiah the ninth chapter being the most prominent that point to the divine nature of the Messiah. See your Jewish friend is partly right and partly wrong. The bigger question is what does the Scripture say Joel Matthew 15 and Mark eight the story of Jesus feeding the 4000 was recorded in recent City of London.

Some scholars say that that was a largely Gentile audience have trouble believing that for many reasons to have any insight into that. I don't see it as a primarily Gentile audience. I don't see any compelling reason to see it as a primarily Gentile audience.

Frankly, so there may be some scholars arguing for that. I see no no compelling reason to myself. Let's just see here that causes too long to come back to it next hour. For those of you listening to Laura what did you say in response to the question asked how they will moment the Messiah when there is no longer actual lineage available.

How do they know the sense of art as well. Some things have just been preserved through the centuries where family name. For example, name-calling or Levi would .2: erotic dissent and Levi Levitical dissent and then through DNA. There is also testing that can pretty well identify a dissent that's that's one thing. Some even claim the two DNA they can identify definitive dissent but basically when someone who claims definitive dissent that part would be disputed claims. Definitive dissent begins to do with the traditional Messiah is expected to bring Israel into obedience to the Torah fight the wars of the Lord regather the exiles rebuild Jerusalem establish peace on the earth, while someone does that claimant definitive dissent as they do all those things you say about. That's gotta be them. That's gotta be the Messiah that would be how it would be recognize and visit the website*around ask if your browser or click on the Israel banner to find a lot of next year. My bottom line is this, to this day. There is no rational explanation for anti-Semitism is monic and it is destroyed. So what's it like to be part of the people that is hated around the world with your neighbors calling for your execution stage for the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown. Your points of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown.

It's clearly Jewish Thursday. Yes it is I sometimes am trying to think about it because it discuses constant travel and radio thinking what day is today think that I do thoroughly. Not now.

It's Wednesday. Not that's a Friday you got questions on I know what day of the week it is by what I'm doing on radio, this is Michael Brown. I am delighted to be with you.

866-34-TRUTH of let me share something with you from the font talk student movement.

This is the political party of Mafia boss, the chairman of the Palestinian authority and muscular bosses font talk movement is Polk promoting its student movement should be but as election campaign appearance at University by posting the above poster on its official Facebook page that I'm looking at the picture you can see on power watch.org power watch.org looking at the poster myself and the poster shows a knife dripping with blood that this is Facebook page of the student movement of font talk and and it is promoting the election of the font talk student movement on the cost and endeared site University campus. I bet it shows a knife dripping with blood.

It is shaped as the past authorities map of quote Palestine that includes the PA areas as well as all of Israel. The entire map is painted in the colors of the Palestinian flag flying Palestinian political sovereignty over Israel and the text on the poster says plant it in the heart of your enemy yeah planted in the heart of your enemy. So what's it telling study number one that this is anything but a movement that wants to have peace with Israel and coexist anything but that someone number two is it is saying that we will overtly advertise, promote murderous violence against Jewish people. You might say yeah but sometimes the Israelis are hostile towards Palestinians, or they've if you want. You have someone tries to attack an Israeli of some guy just tries to stab you, and you, you catch them better to kill him.

Yeah I know there is some anger you have to realize that when you have women in their 70s, walking on the street getting attacked and stabbed to death. Boy, 13 years old on his bicycle getting attacked and stabbed and on and on.

Hundreds and hundreds of attacks and dozens and dozens of casualties and, celebrating the bus. The bus blast. What little over week and 1/2 ago these things going on a regular basis to understand some of the hostility that this is this is it. Like I keep looking at it.

It's just it's extraordinary to see, but that's what Israel is dealing with and for those who say all is recipes part. It is not a piece part of is not Hamas but not the Palestinian Authority either all right undertake your Jewish related questions today.

866-34-TRUTH 784.

I'm also gonna be answering Jewish related questions posted on Twitter or on Facebook asked Dr. Brown on Facebook. So if you're unable to call but you can post my twitter account DR Michael L. Brown, Dr. Michael L. Brown sugar two elves in the middle or on Facebook asked Dr. Brown, SK, DR Brown then we can answer your questions as many as we can on the air.

I will be answering on Facebook and put it on the air. I will 866-4875 line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown McAfee Brown delighted to be with you. 8663 freight 7884 with your Jewish related questions go back over to Facebook and let's see here. Okay, answered that answered that. Let's try this one had explained to observant Jews that Jesus is the Messiah. When R tells them not to list the false prophets will be them away from God's commandments. Deuteronomy 13 was Christian churches teach the followers of Jesus are free to disregard some of God's commandments which is a Sabbath. I personal believe the New Testament teaches that we are free to disregard Commands like the Sabbath. Nevertheless, that's with the majority of Christian churches teach therefore to be in harmony with the Torah New Testament Scripture. Should Christians revisit this issue and remove the sum of life. My Jewish friends that they can clearly see that Jesus is not a false prophet who tells his followers to disregard certain commandments video from the validity of Torah Matthew 517 to 19.

Great question David number one you are not a race, church history, you are not going to race 2000 years of the church teaching that the Christians are not obligated to observe all of the Torah serve it at end, you're not going so they get Christians around the world. So can we can observe all the Torah.

Secondly, such a Sabbath it's it's everything Torah and that's the second happen. Is this not possible. Number 12 to obey many of the forever commands of the Torah and it certainly contrary to the spirit of the New Testament that all Christians are required to keep all of the Jewish law absolutely not that that would undo one of the purposes of the sycophants world which was to bring Gentiles into the kingdom of God, along with use without gentle seven to become Jews, so the better question would be what about Jewish believers in Jesus the Messiah. While in the earliest church or congregation for decades.

What was the witness Jews contains observe the Torah as images observe the Torah. Paul pointed out that that he didn't violate the traditions of his people. Matthew 21 sees me ask 21 Jacob James says to Paul look you see how many tens of thousands of Jewish believers. There are inherent in all cells for the Torah and we have documented that for several centuries at least three or four. Some say five or six sums even to begin the Muslim era there were Jewish believers who continued with students not following the rabbinic traditions which had developed enough on the Judaism of their day. But as Jews observe the Sabbath and celebrating the Passover as followers of issue at the same time and others in the church didn't get it and had an issue with an annoyed day. There's been a great restoration of that with messianic Jewish congregations all around the world. So, in point of fact, we can easily say yeah Jesus did not abolish the law, he brought it to fulfillment.

He brought to fulfillment the Torah and the prophets.

Here's the thing is, I said, the vast majority of the forever commandments of the Torah Jews cannot keep that I keep it a standing functioning Temple functioning priesthood Jewish sovereignty in the land so issue has come fulfilled everything that was spoken of and now has initiated the new and better covenant. Either that or Jewish people around the world are not able to to do most of what God commanded, especially in terms of forever commandments 75% of the forever commandments. Jewish people cannot perform. So did God leave us empty or did Yeshua bring to fulfillment.

That which is written in the Torah and prophets, and now has given us a new and better way for more on that volume for of answering Jewish objections to Jesus that seek carry why after we Old Testament chapters like Isaiah 53 in Psalm 22, as well as types and shadows. Like the Passover blood on the doorframes of the sacrifice release the testing of Isaac or today's you still in denial that Jesus is in fact the Messiah out. One reason is that their reading it from very different perspective not not comparing these. I am not I am not am not comparing these, but I will make a point when Muslims try to claim well we have Mohammed in the Bible you have mock mood which means beloved are desirable.

You have that song of Solomon and that's that that's the name of Mohammed. See it's it's prophesied there rubbish is that since the Hebrew words and with Mohammed and when the Islamic claimed that when Jesus speaks of the spirit. I'm in a send the comforter of the councilman to send the spirit that that section of the spirit that's Mohammed resets out of bunk. That's rubbish and it is now from a traditional Jewish perspective. That's what we are doing. They CSS painting Jesus into the Scriptures, they CS is making him fit. They claim the New Testament was written to make it look as if he fit that answer types and shadows, we see that, but others wouldn't. Now that being said, when the Holy Spirit opens up someone's eyes to see it becomes crystal clear and many Jewish people have come to faith reading's Isaiah 53.

For example, their eyes were open and because of Jewish rejection of the Messiah pulses. There is a hardness of heart, a veil, of course, traditional views would be very offended by that concept, but they would send some level I am deceived or misled. So what were saying is, is the simple excess when you factor Jesus out and he's not in the equation anymore. You read the Scriptures through different eyes. And it's through those eyes illness.

He thinks it's almost a natural hardening to another point of view. We continue to pray for the opening of hearts and minds also look church history has has often been terribly brutal towards Jewish people and because of that Jesus is associated with church history and therefore cannot possibly be the Messiah. Jennifer, one of the Jewish people, except any of the New Testament was written by the Jews does not. It's written by the Jews is lots of literature and in the interval written by Jews, the people of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

They are there Jews, the Sadducees, who are who are were competing with the Pharisees for the leadership of the people. Those are Jews in these different groups were hostile to each other.

So just because I was written by Jews does make it sacred and and situate the religious Jews today say read the writings of Karl Marx. He was due the communist manifesto in oh where they do that Monell because it's it's atheistic and it's it's hostile to God's purposes, and so on so forth to descriptions written by Jews. This image is going to read it or except that being said, many Jews look at the New Testament is a foreign book. To the extent we can get them to recognize as written by first century views about the Jewish Messiah, then a great door is open of Laura, why do Jewish people say they want to follow Jesus, but don't realize that he is Jewish and following him means following what he did and live.

He is the way right yeah Laura, we recognize Jesus as the Jewish Messiah, but Jesus never required Gentiles to live his views.

In fact, the New Testament expressly says not to risk within seven.

We saved circumcised will become uncircumcised. You saved is a Jew living as a Jew, don't start Lewis Genta your save uncircumcised. So as a Gentile, don't become circumcised.

Don't try to become a Jew because his first salvation a relationship with God. Circumcision is nothing and has no bearing on the equation so what matters is a moral life, lived out in obedience to the God of Israel, but that does not mean all the commandments that God gave to Israel. That being said, to the extent we can recognize the Jewish roots of the faith. It is enriching and helpful 866-34-TRUTH. Let's just see here the right hand on hand, on the one answer all questions from the same person carry as this recently watched a video about the Dead Sea Scrolls and how they are similar to the Christian text.

The claims that Jesus and his students receives and adopted a mystical interpretation of the Tanakh that include spiritually sick and for Babylon. What are your thoughts spiritually sick and for Babylon nonsense right.

Remember, by the way, there is a thriving Jewish community in Babylon and the major trauma that is studied by Jewish people in the Talmud is there to this, the Jerusalem Talmud and the Babylonian Talmud with the V Tom with the one that study day and I did in in Chivas.

That's the Babylonian Talmud, so there is thriving Jewish committee in Babylon through the centuries and and even even up to recent centuries in Iraq they they were still there. Part of that same ancient community, but to say that the new test rise receives no idyllic people to live in all these theories rough decades, every new theory.

An idea. The fact is that there are concepts in the Dead Sea Scrolls that indicate the idea of of Jews expecting a messianic figure or messianic figures of the priestly and royal messianic figure.

The Jewish community feel that they were part of an in times community. It was the final battle between the sons of light and sense of darkness and that there was a new and better covenant that God had made those themes in New Testament, but the in breaking of the kingdom of God.

The in breaking of the messianic movement through Jesus was radically different than what took place when the scene so some similar common concepts, but none family member gets the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thank you for our thoroughly Jewish broadcast in first hour I talked about the anti-Semitism that exists in Europe, UK.

Facing it now, even with parliamentary members and I'm just looking for an article here. No, not that one yeah yeah okay there's an article by James Bloodworth.

The left must confront its ugly anti-Semitism problem and he makes reference to Molly, who Tia is the new and US presidency and US being what I figured out her comments being a pertinent example of this phenomenon were anti-Semitism permeates institutions and political organizations. Bloodworth says it's easy enough to call off the thugs who probably sport swastikas and emit unmedicated Jew hatred yet anti-Semitic assumptions and tropes have entered the mainstream and far more ambiguous forms grab clip number three before I go the phones back to Facebook and twitter questions.

Let's listen to what Molly Abu Tia has to say here because of the government is now remembering indicate thruster.

The company disclosed a month to engage in session. Many forms and that will an unlimited well I contact the reading from a common thing that we did back then month internalizes the name of our session with my ninja taking things that dangerously condemning the running groups and individuals ration yeah she is now the leader of the national Union of students in the UK Confederation of students needs and the United Kingdom around 600 students unions or affiliate account for more than 95% of all higher and further education units in the UK and leader say her comments dislike some of these parliamentary members date they are anti-Semitic comments and when you listen to some of these things and see what's being posted put out it's it's really hard to deny 866-34-TRUTH. Let's take a phone call with Annette since the first hour we go to Santa Clarita, California Anthony, welcome to the line of fire. Thank you, thank you. Go ahead okay I would. I was wondering if we claim that were never worship the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. How come our Christian churches don't teach us anything to observe, like the feet of the Lord. Okamoto separated about yeah I'll give you the positive answer in the negative answer. The first loan is to understand your perspective serves are there things that you believe God wants Christians today to observe from from the Old Testament, for example, an example 7th day Sabbath feasts circumcision boys on the eighth day.

Are there specific things that you think that the God once every Christian to to follow or just some select things for certain reasons wouldn't have a answer that. I mean, I don't see how they should do certain things are not certain thing got it. I give a limit to suggest that the a larger theology is needed whereby you really you are Christian leaders or others really thought through the larger issues because if were not under the law but under grace. What is that mean if a new and better covenant is with establish what is that mean if gentiles don't have to become Jews in order to be saved or have equal status with Jewish believers, what is that mean so here's the positive answer that I give you the negative right because it it is is a genuine issue, the positive answer is that I Jesus the Messiah coming into the world and making Jew and Gentile one in him that it was. Not necessary for Gentile to convert to Judaism was not necessary for Gentile to take on the yoke of the law that Gentile believers reissue a could have exact equal status with Jewish believer in terms of equal access to God. God being the father of both equally both being spiritual priest to God. Posting branches of the five posting members of the body equally. In that respect.

And that's part of what's laid out in an ax. The 15th chapter.

The gentiles don't have to take on the entire yoke of the law. That's what Paul argues for an up in the book of Galatians telling Galatian believers. You do not have to become circumcised and take on the law in order to be right with God effect if you do that you fall from grace. And no one said that Gentile Christians couldn't develop their own traditions. No one said that Gentile Christians couldn't even develop a calendar with things that were special in each community around the world have something that is followed.

So on the positive side, everyone is not under the Sinai covenant today and there is a new and better way and we have a unity that transcends calendar this on one side the negative side is this the first Gentile believers got saved through the witness of the Jewish apostles, and some of them were ready attending Cigna synagogue was called God fears, in other words, they honor the God of Israel, but they didn't convert to Judaism so they knew the Jewish calendar. They would be in the synagogue on the Sabbath, they would know when the feast days and things like that. So when Paul writes the Corinthians. Some of the Corinthians that first heard him. According to first Corinthians Seesmic asked the 18th chapter. They heard Paul in the synagogue. So what were they doing the synagogue there were God-fearing Gentiles, so when Paul writes to them.

He assumes they know the Passover is first with his five he assumes they know it first reaches first Corinthians 15. He makes reference to that, probably with appointing back to the biblical calendar so that the negative answer.

Anthony is that as Gentile believers increased in number and Jewish believers were no longer the majority, and then allowing the majority of leaders that the Gentile believers did exactly what Paul warns about in Romans the 11th chapter, they became arrogant through ignorance and they acted as if this was their tree and the original branches were gone forever and they had now replace them with the church somehow became the new Israel, and rather than honoring the fathers cursed the fathers rather than saying we are drinking from this route through which Israel's nourishing Sabbath runs. Instead, they cut themselves off from that root so little by little Anthony. Things are turning little by little. There is restoration taking place not just messianic congregations that have many Gentiles in them, but many churches celebrating tabernacles of many churches are recognizing the of the beauty of the fee so Anthony I believe there should be teaching.

I believe there should at least be awareness of the calendar what it symbolizes what it means and how the church as a whole partakes of it spiritually. Getting that direction. Little by little. Thank you sir. 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 86643 here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome friends she thoroughly as they appear on the line of fire 866-34-TRUTH 87884 when when we expanded our broadcast old. Let's see, five years ago to reach many, many more stations across America.

I I said let's pray that really felt to do this.

Let's be thematic on several days of the week so Friday you got questions. We got answers we had often done that Thursday we made thoroughly Jewish. There is, in fact, was a listener who came up with that because I was thing okay Monday could be Monday's musings and Tuesday can be a theology teaching day on Wednesday or worldview day Thursday Jewish day but with some that would rhyme with Thursday one of Alyssa's came up with thoroughly Jewish Thursday and we vary a lot.

Monday Tuesday Wednesday what we cover, but often I'll make sure that we do a teacher theology oriented program on Tuesday and Wednesday or worldview related program. One reason is this.

We are not one track here.

This is not a political conservative talk radio show and every down and we talk about what's happening in politics every down and be telling what would Sabbath elections every down and become what was happening morally, culturally national things and so on.

We are not exclusively Christian teaching show where every down and to be talking about this biblical text and that biblical text will not exclusively apologetics every day will be talk about defense of the faith and by the way, there are shows that that is their exact calling and that's what they're called to do right. Some are called to be speaking in civil returns.

A knife and some spoon and some fork we call it the spoon and the forks pork that like a mixed one like that similar and some are called to be a set of silverware each each one different, and were not just exclusively in Israel shall Jewish or but we cover all these different bases and it is an expression of who I am an expression of my calling. It's an expression of our larger ministry right now.

For example, my materials translated into Hebrew being used to to reach Israelis on intranet as I speak there reaching Israelis on intranet or translated into Spanish or all Russian reaching people by book form or or video or things like that in other parts of the world that's that's extraordinary were deeply blessed light at the same moment we have grass for ministry scoter preaching the gospel in countries like India and the Philippines and Mexico as as I speak to banana times on some of the sleeping the same time where the front lines of moral cultural revolution writing about these things. Addressing these things and were always looking at the political issues and try to come from a kingdom perspective on those in Monaco. Some roaster apologetics are always teaching so we felt it was important that as I prayed for two reasons.

One, that's an expression of my life and calling here on radio that I get to share with you and serve you play my part it in the body and and secondly it would not allow us to ever get into a particular rot, meaning that we become focused on one thing I'll trust me it would be easy if my calling was conservative talk radio to talk about politics.

Every day there's always some talk about or if my calling was exclusively moral cultural revolution and that swells can focus on day and night. You better believe you absolutely better believe that that the piece of chocolate every day and the same with Israel. The same apologetics and with his teaching this way we can stay very and I'm always blessed when I meet listeners that so many of you will say to me that that's where things you enjoy most about the broadcast.

The different ground that we cover on the air. The different subjects that we cover the many times people tell me that their favorite days. Either Thursday or Friday the 31st Thursday. The questions that ask that's today as tomorrow rot okay will be right back in and of the answers and Jewish questions. Hey this is Michael Brown.

I want to invite you to join me for our second ever trip to Israel. February 25 through March 6, 2017 this is a great opportunity.

Click on the Israel manner or call our office at seven 047-8237 the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thank you for being part of this thoroughly Jewish Thursday broadcast. Yeah early in the year. Reports European anti-Semitism likely to grow in 2016 talk about that talk about that. Yeah I mean is that is a no-brainer, statement of what you you could not even have to read the news and have your eyes closed and your your ears covered in and make that prediction pretty easily. Just if you've lived anywhere other than behind a rock somewhere in in the last several years.

So sad to say that if you got a Jewish -related question, a Hebrew related question Jewish tradition, Israel related question give me a call will do our best to answer 866-34-TRUTH 87884. I did post on Facebook and I invited folks to to join me there so safe. If you want to ask your questions and answer some on the air. So here's one from Joseph. I love you broadcast on April 21 when you explain the different ways that a Jewish person can be defined.

For example, ethnic, religious, national I've recently seen an increase in people thinking was being propagated by Hebrew roots movement one law. Theology teaches that a Gentile believer and she was now part of Israel's spiritual Jew. What do you think this incorrect doctrine is gaining popularity.

Joseph doctrines like this have been around for centuries and centuries. On the one hand, it's very easy for Christian to find deep identification with Israel and the Jewish people is very easy to say, hey, God made his covenant promises with Israel that his covenant promises are now extended to us.

We are now sons and daughters of the living God. We are now the temple of the spirit. We are now a part of this new body that Yeshua constituted the after all chose 12 disciples dignity represents the 12 tribes of Israel.

Now we are followers of issue through those disciples and there there many parallel descriptions between Gentile believers in the New Testament in Israel in the Old Testament. Even Paul writing to the Romans and and nine through 11. While he emphatically says Israel's Israel and there's a remnant of believers within Israel the Israel within Israel #6 and he emphatically refers to the people of the nations as Gentiles of the money to Gentiles citizens amenity spiritual Jew someone to Gentiles want you to provoke my people Israel to to envy.

Yet at the same time.

Paul applies passages say in Hosea where God speaks of his people Israel is as you you you were my people rejected you so you are not my people, but now you are my people. Paul applies that to Gentiles.

The ultimate the ultimate, not my people who have become the people of God and enrollments to verse 20 and 29 could easily be interpreted to say that a Gentile believer that lives by God's moral codes even though not a Jew is a Jew at heart is circumcised in heart, so is the very easy-to-read things like that. You might even recall saying that in Philippians 3 we are the true circumcision and some think it's just I met himself and his Jewish colleagues as apostles, but others think know is right into the Gentile Philippians as well that could be that there is, in the sense that the body takes on the spiritual qualities of Israel and yet Paul never explicitly refers to Gentile believers as spiritual Jews. Paul never explicitly refers to the church as his Revelation 616 where he speaks of the Israel of God most likely is talk about Jewish followers of Yeshua with her as opposed to Gentiles effect would be utterly contradictory.

Not only the, the less likely grammatical possibility to say that after rebuking them for the better part of five chapters in the strongest terms we thought have anywhere in the New Testament of Paul's writings, and basis and I wish those are trying forcibly circumcised with go the whole way may be serious and castrate themselves very strong language whose which tribulations are very strange that after five chapters of rebuking them for thinking that they had to become Torah observant Jews to be right with God. He would now call them the Israel of God. Why thought he tells within why look at that.

So it's this ideological, let alone it is not the most logical or grammatical reading of Galatians 616. All that being said of over the years the church by believing it was spiritual Israel, the church, by believing it had replaced the Jewish people that I was the old one where the new one. They were of the flesh were of the spirit having that notion led to anti-Semitism, but the persecution of the Jews in Jesus name as horrible as that is to say, so why you have these movements recurring in recent years, or even more will because there is a greater recognition that God is not done with Israel and the Jewish people. It's really impossible to say that we look at world history and in the promise of Israel today and the supernatural restoration of Israel to the land. It's impossible to deny that Lyman some that I that I see you really can't to be scriptural at the same time argue for that very, very strongly so and point of fact, there's this recognition of Israel's importance and some Gentiles who do not rightly understand their standing in Yeshua, who do not rightly understand everything they need is found in him that a spiritual Gentile is equal to spiritual Jew that a spiritual Gentile is not required to keep the law of Moses, that one must not find some type of blood connection to Israel or identifies a tribe of Israel to be spiritual if they do not understand that all of the in him in Christ, teaching that Paul has in the New Testament if they do not sufficiently understand that then they will look for some type of validation is Jews and some of them dresses, Jews and and they start living by Jewish law and I know some who have actually apostatized. They have turned away completely from the Messiah by Gentiles thinking has become Jews and then thinking but have become more religious Jews and religiously came, the less they focused on issue and they ultimately turned away Messiah of Israel entirely. Some of converted to Orthodox Judaism. I know people doing that's happened, but I wonder about it for years. It's not a surprise when it happens because they put their identity in the wrong place.

I hope this is making sense to you, 8663 for 87884. Can I answer another Facebook question.

Let's see.

Scroll down scroll down.

Alright, I'm gonna ask three questions by the same person carry the Jews consider the Messiah the same the same as God or they consider them two different things to different things for sure two different entities.

God sends the Messiah poet, it's the primary message that is the primary message of the New Testament God has made this Jesus whom you crucified before the Messiah, God sent his son into the world God has raised the issue up as the Messiah. What we understand through reflection and study and prayer is that the Messiah himself is divine, but no Jews do not look at God as the Messiah or the Messiah as God, not a question, did you think the Son of Man and Daniel is God himself. No know they would say there's the ancient of days and is one like a Son of Man, highly exalted, but some say it's the Messiah. Some say this King size is rabbinic interpretation that says that in Daniel seven verse 13, 14 other traditional Jewish interpretations is know that this represents Israel when you go to the end of the chapter you see that the Son of Man represents Israel and the nations then serve God through serving Israel but the strong argument that can be made and is accepted in a lot of traditional Jewish interpretation that the Son of Man in Daniel 713, 14, who is highly exalted is the Messiah. As explained earlier, traditional Jews do not believe in a divine Messiah but many believe in a highly exalted Messiah.

I got all those questions answered can I get.

Let's see okay one more from Carrie how was the Christians claim that the new covenant mentioned in Jeremiah has really occurred when she finished reading the chapter concludes it was still teach one another to obey the instructions as the Jewish interpretations make more sense. This occurs the last day when all nations come to observance of Torah during the messianic age easy carry. Of course I answer that in some death and vying for of my series but were enjoying the firstfruits of it just like the Sinai covenant has ultimate goals, Messiah, and if you obey me fully then then you'll be a priestly nation.

To me, etc. of course, Israel never saw those guys who will see the goals of the new covenant gospel in the first recent experience begins of sin have experienced life in the Messiah and we have all experienced through life in him with the Holy Spirit does teach us the fundamental things that he is the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution there again is Dr. Michael Brown. I regularly sampling little sampling here from some of the latest hate stuff that I've seen posted on social media, especially on YouTube. We get it a lot. People just responding to things of Post-it or is a sweet Facebook one boycott Israel. Netanyahu was a war criminal. The Israeli terrorist regime have only posted on YouTube video invitation to join us on our tour of Israel next year. If you haven't heard about it. February 25 to March 6. It's a wonderful 10 day tour. It's a great price. The accommodations are great the food is great, but much, much, much more importantly than that, the land, the experience of being Jewish believers in our believers. There, the places you'll see everybody that I talked to that went on our tour was two years ago. They all thought it was a great deal most wanted come back again immediately immediately think of who they want to bring on the next tour so you got time to plan for this, but if you make your ridge if you deposit make a deposit this week there's an additional $50 savings and if you're one of our monthly support. The torchbearer is a special discount for you.

But see us us us someone responded to our tour invitation by saying don't go to Jewish stolen land don't go to Israel because his coat stolen land. The reason I said it like that because it was all in caps of Summit media bias against Israel saw respondent media bias against Israel. I thought the Jews run the media all.

Let's just see. Okay, here's someone responding to things that I'm explaining about Palestinians and some of that that hatred towards the Israelis filling rates as this is Dr. Brown your channel is a joke. This information, and a bunch of! Looks like at least six.

History shows who are the aggressors just look at the Palestine Israel map stop spreading your BS Americans. No Israel or bullies.

God help Palestinians they says I hope Israel gets nuked Zions, the Jews are evil. They are war, war criminals, if this is some of the. The delightful stuff that gets posted on the regular basis, and the more they talk, the more they expose themselves some ascending effort and culture.

When she made some controversial statements that could be considered anti-Semitic. She was talk about Jews, scientists, profanity. That's what we are pointing out how about this one as I'm correcting things that the comments are balancing out comments that were made by John Snow was channel for in UK major broadcaster. There someone who is apparently Muslim base of the name.

I don't have to listen to this BS radio speaker Israel left Gaza because they couldn't fight the resistance there and their army was angering up change. Change the words are was no real and you have said they were defeated and the fact they work to feed.

They did this to reach out to Palestinians. They did this under American pressure.

They did this uprooting thousands thousands of their own people physically uprooting people live there for years and built synagogues and homes and develop businesses and and if you are Palestinian there use a thriving community in terms of the, the, the standard of life was was improved under Israeli rule.

Yet these these are easily obtained facts and you could just go Israel go there and shop in the mom, Palestinians, etc. when Israel turned it over to the Palestinians and they both Hamas and his leaders and some mosses are pressing them, suspending multiplied tens of millions of dollars of aid being sent and internationally, costs is is using the money to build terror tunnels going under's interest into Israel and into to build develop its arsenal. Again, as the people suffer as though the was the widow of Yasser Arafat even talked about the about the suffering of the Palestinians under Hamas. They keep doing assassinations of the resistance, and political leaders from air, they keep the control entrance to food and water, which they polluted many times they refuse to let the Gazans move and travel for treatment or education. Do you know how much aid Israel brings into Gaza on a weekly basis.

Gina, how many people that are hurting and in need in Gaza that Israel treats and you know the only reason for the for the blockade. This only one reason, and by the way Egypt is the same thing to Gaza. It is to stop the importing of weapons and to stop the exporting of terror. That's the only reason if the people of Gaza did not have Hamas as their leaders and were living peacefully.

They would be thriving. Israelis are evil.

Most resellers of the main cause the conflict because their control of the government. That's why peaceful or be achieved in Gaza Yurok propaganda propaganda propaganda that's all that is it is true. No one likes the Jews.

They are profanity, 95% are prevented they been kicked out of every nation they have inhabited is another Facebook process comes in day and night just to give you a feel of what's out there. Jews are able most of them Christ Jesus was not a Jew Christ Jesus was not a Jew. I did get the feel for this. Here again, respond to YouTube video the truth about Palestinian Israeli conflict. The criminal Zionist state of today, which is a state-sponsored terrorism has nothing account with Israel. The Bible, the reason why the number of Christian Palestinians is decreasing in Palestine is because design estate is carrying out ethnic cleansing against the bogus lie complete either 100% nonsense rubbish Palestinian Christians are not suffering under Israel live in Israel and worship with complete freedom and and convert from Islam to Christianity. Christianity was lump with no penalty for the government and no honor killings supported by the government. No custody.

Christians are decreasing because of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority Israel carrying it ethnic cleansing against that is a bold face lie in some else responding to my apologetic series on YouTube because Jews are evil and they are the children of Satan Jews took Satan's offer which Christ refuse friends. It's a plague anti-Semitism Jew hating sentiments.

They are plague is rampant in the world today, we must combat it spiritually and we must combat it was truth and I urge you keep listening to this broadcast so that you can get dissuaded from some of these satanic destructive ugly lies and know how to address them again friends visit the website asked Dr. Brown.org SK your brown.org visit there and check out our Israel tour anyway you can join us for every 25th to March 6 of next year. We just announced it this week. My bottom line today. The bigger the lie, the harder it will that's gonna happen. King Messiah returns the 845
