Passover, Bernie Sanders, Israel, and Terrorism

From Passover Bernie Sanders to terrorism in Israel welcome to through the Jewish Thursday stage for the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown. It is thoroughly Jewish Thursday. There is so much talk about in the Jewish world world of Israel a lot going on 866-34-TRUTH 87884 is the number to call any type of Jewish related question. You have Israel related question Hebrew related question, by all means give me a call today 866-34-TRUTH that's 866-34-TRUTH 7884. If you are listening to me in Alabama Alabama. That's right. Saturday morning I'm scheduled to be in Tuscaloosa at a national I am Rendon conference speaking to young people about Kenya began Christian Saturday afternoon scheduled to be in Birmingham for messianic congregation. There speaking about Israel anti-Semitism why the devil hates the Jews and Sunday morning at a church in Birmingham speaking on revival in God's authentic fire to find out more go to my website. Asked Dr. Brown.org asking your Brown.org and check out my itinerary. There okay I I I don't want to make this the major subject until a Bernie Sanders in Israel.

In a moment because this just did happen today because these are breaking news items from earlier today.

I need to discuss them as were the thick of the political campaign. I have a video I just recorded that that will post as we have as we have opportunity, but but Donald Trump today said two things on on TV that were very disturbing.

There are many who feel that he will be the champion of conservative Christians that that if elected he said it that help protect Christians and rescued Christ back in Christmas okay that's kind of the material to be in Christ back in Christmas is all there are bigger issues but find great okay understand and I believe he sincerely believes that when he says and he be the best friends. Christians of ever having all of that. Unfortunately, unfortunately, number one, he has spoken about exceptions for abortion the Republican platform has consistently said that there is a pro-life platform. So there are no exceptions for rape or incest as agonizing as these questions are as much a society can say who gives you the right to impose that a woman if you believe the baby is a baby in the womb. That life begins at conception and you can't punish the baby for what someone did to the woman right you can't punish the baby either.

If life begins at conception and you don't kill the baby.

He said that he would want those exceptions introduced to the Republican Party platform which is a critical pro-life issue for you start to want to compromise that you have now gotten away from a pro-life position. That's one that the second thing ended up being pragmatic.

If you have to push the rebuild this we get this multiplicity that would be the platform then he was asked by transgender issues and in he was critical of what North Carolina did public safety, common sense, saying that a man biological male should be able to go until all a locker room with with with a women with a woman, or girls common sense safety was critical of that and and yeah why was his commonsense beloveds from conservative Christian values as well and then he said if someone else identifies transgender should be of use the bathroom of their choice. So an intake cruise yes it of interest accrues to cruise and came out and of course jumped on it says there is a whole world on stark raving mad. That's the one that's championing Christian values conservative Christian values of your if you're expecting Donald Trump champion of conservative Christians in certain Christian values.

Thanks again. Come back. Bernie Sanders and Israel.

The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown, you have more most places in states like Michigan, are you proud that as a Jewish candidate that I am very overwhelming majority of Muslims. I am in America. That is the best of wow so Bernie Sanders has a lot of Muslim support, even though he is a Jew that is interesting. This is Michael Brown. It is thoroughly Jewish Thursday any Jewish related question that you have for me, give me a call today Passover is coming in just a few days saw Alana talk with you about that as well. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 so let's just listen a little bit more to Bernie Sanders of some of his views and and this is this is why I've taken such exception to his policies. I will go to clip number two and he's on with.

I keep for it. Forget how to pronounce the name Frank Uecker's RFID mispronunciation of the young Turks talking with Sen. Bernie Sanders clip number two master policy positions as he just indicated one of the policy positions that that you would want all I want for Sec. Clinton if she's the nominee to come out for a Medicare for all single-payer health care system 115 bucks an hour some minimum wage. I want to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, Flint, Michigan is not the only community in America that doesn't have safe drinking water, roads, bridges, rail system is in disrepair. I want a vigorous effort to address climate change. I mean I mean I am very worried about talk to the scientists.

This planet is in serious danger. You can cuddle up to the fossil fuel industry to take them on, and also what is resonating. I believe very important making public colleges and universities tuition free Wall Street tax on speculation to pay for that in the multis corporate loopholes. Also, some of the rights of the demand we we would make so he is utterly, utterly socialist. We know that, but what about his views on Israel. Now he made an infamous misstatement set on of the numbers in front of me but it was over 10,000 innocents who were killed with Israel's war on Gaza and that warned Hamas in Gaza without heat he was. It was just a little bit off distilled little seasonal little bit and he over 10,000 right.

According to Hamas 1462 civilians were killed out of a total of 2251 Gaza fatalities during 51 day conflict right that's according to Hamas 1462, at a total of 2251 so that would be like me saying I forget Bernie Sanders age. What is he like 450 years all I will have in front of your your chart was a population of Americans at like 2 billion people have in front of me. I mean that's off. But not only so, the fact of the matter is that that Israel went out of its way to avoid sufficient civilian casualties. The reports by Hamas were way, way too high as it's been seen that that at least half of the casualties were males of fighting age. Has that happened, otherwise you'd expect disproportionate numbers.

Women should know is quite the opposite, and some of said it was the most carefully executed war in in modern recorded history because Israel went out of its way to avoid the civilian casualties that Hamas was basically setting up so is completely wrong there and completely unsympathetic to what Israel deals with on a regular basis including the bus bombing couple days ago and by the way, CNN initially reports it is a bus fire and BBC reports it as a bomb blast but doesn't say it's a terrorist attack it's it's incredible. I'm in the history of how CNN and BBC and others major media have reported the Israeli-Palestinian conflict over the years is mind-boggling.

We've talked about it on the air. We've documented it for you previously, but Bernie Sanders hires a woman to be his outreach coordinator Simone Thurman to be his Jewish outreach coordinator so she's going to help build more bridges to Jewish voters and things like that. Fortunately she has a scathing history of scathing Criticism of Israel's policies is a Facebook grant couple years back that was recently uncovered which he stated the promise that I was quoted, arrogant, deceptive, cynical, manipulative glycol, accusing him of sanctioning the murder of 2000 people prior summer and closing with F you baby yeah and this this is the one that he hires as is Jewish outreach coordinator you're talking about a real real mists there okay so let's see what he says on the on this interview on the young Turks click number five talking about Gaza that this goes back it's almost a month ago but I just wrote about Bernie Sanders and these things are in the news with the recent terrorist attacks in Israel so I'm revisiting all of this click number five in Gaza. Unemployment is 44%.

The community is remains in destruction. This massive poverty, massive water problems.

Massive problems you cannot be a President of the United States without understanding.

I don't know how you bring peace to the Middle East. If you just one-sided, embraceable people, and as a Jewish person I have found that this is so disturbing, so many similarities between Palestinians and Jews on the proper circumstances, people can and should get along Mr. Sanders, Bernie. Why is unemployment so high in golf because of Hamas, not because of Israel. There was a thriving economy when Israel was there. There was a developing economy when Israel was there.

Once Israel gave up Gaza without any conditions.

Once the people voted Hamas into power. It has been horrific. It has been oppressive. Bernie all the money that is going into Gaza. All the international aid.

Where is it going is it rebuilding hospitals and schools is it is it rebuilding the infrastructure there is it helping with employment is in helping with development. The answer is a big fat no and all know it is going to build terror tunnels. Hamas is regularly doing a Israel just uncovered a massive one is as many as what 100 feet deep to try to get into Israel perpetrate terror attacks. It is, it is going into weaponry and spreading propaganda fact it is not helping the people and then some of the Hamas leadership is getting rich off of it. Yes, I'm all for fair treatment of the Palestinians, but the issue there is Hamas and on their state run TV all oxo TV and in Gaza and in the Palestinian Authority TV in so-called West Bank.

This is continually inciting people to violence. Teenagers to commit violent acts I'd talk about this in my article of just distant from one Jew to an agreed on stream.org by merging Bernie to stop with the Israel bashing early early this year is really mother of six was stabbed to death by Palestinian terrorist.

She save the lives of her children by not letting him pull the knife out of her so he was trying to pull the knife out to stab others and others family members. Kids arrived and he he ran off without being able to pull the knife often step up my thought stabbed them.

That's how she died at her funeral the next day. Her oldest daughter 17 warned she was not there in time to save her mother.

She called her best friend in the days following the murder. She and her father make clear they would not give way to bitterness and hate is for the woman's 15-year-old killer. Israel's claim that it was Palestinian Authority TV that incited him to act, noting the period of time pursuing the terrace deck, 15-year-old the period of time pursue the terrorist attack the murder had watched Palestinian Authority television which presented Israel's state that kills Palestinians so he gets worked up and he goes out and kills this mother of six Bernie. That's where your indignation should be focused one worker from Bernie Sanders. Let's go to click number six same interview on the young Turks where Bernie Sanders weighs in on Prime Minister Netanyahu. Clearly there all of the people on both sides for their own political gain. Supplementing her trip and there were a very decent people of all sorts.

1% of the futures piece so anti-might offer people on one of the size are you referring to Ted Cruz and Donald Trump that I was to say the least of probably nothing Yahoo would not be the first person that I would like the Oval Office, low low you can put Netanyahu in the same class as Palestinian terrorists as come off as awful, evil people on both sides. Yikes. Talk about misguided.

Talk about ironic that the most prominent Jewish candidate we've yet had the president United States is the worst Israel basher we've seen would make Barack Obama present Obama say like a friend of Israel champion for Israel, 866-34-TRUTH will be right back with your call for the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown and I that's that's from a video from a couple weeks ago with Ted Cruz rolling matzoh in an Orthodox Jewish matzoh bakery yet missing Diana Diana which is enough for us. So just interesting that on the Republican side, you had people like Mike Huckabee and Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz and Carly Farina. Others stanch staunch friends of Israel and instantly Donald Trump. Despite his waffling statements alike remain neutral in our stand with Israel, a far better friend of Israel than a Bernie Sanders and it Bernie Sanders is the do interesting, 866-348-7884. You've got Jewish related questions on this thoroughly Jewish Thursday. We've got Jewish answers for you. We started Raleigh, New Jersey John, welcome to the line of fire Michael Brown sure thank I requested a colorless product and I can study extra 12 and I was questioned about it on earthwork. I know that the household the mail about how to go and find a lambert through the Lamb� To be inspected by a priest. But if you do that? I know that they picked the lamp or the security what they do with clerical support.

And in the four days where which the first reading on that start. Chapter 12 in a quicker work from the care they were depicted upbeat date for the 14th day God of okay. I mean, obviously, when they were about to leave Egypt.

There was certain pressure in terms of what was being done, but as as to the first question the idea that a priest would be able to inspect a lamb for every Israelite family would be a bit of a stretch. So where it says your lampshade the election without blemish the mail a year old. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats.

It doesn't say I does doesn't say that that had to be inspected by the priests traditions develop over a period of years. But no, it's doesn't mention it, that sees me, and in the context here, so beginning tell the car you should visit on the 10th of this mother eventually take a lamp and then the keeping to the 14th day of the month.

To my knowledge in ancient Israel.

Nothing was done with the Lamb. It's an interesting question as to why it was set apart it could just be make sure it's done well in advance and this is that the safety way of doing it.

There may be other things that went into it that we don't know about the Jewish traditions can develop as to why but there is no instruction that was given we have no knowledge from ancient Israel as to what they are connected with the Lamb. During that time just basically know from the surface of it. It would tell you that it was just to to have things ready well in advance and in this way it's it's done and there's full preparation of it. Beyond that, we don't we don't know.

Again all kinds of interesting traditions develop around things where you have these interesting questions in Scripture that Scripture doesn't fill them in for us and often rabbinic Judaism fills the menu. Jewish tradition fills them in and but that's again just traditions, not actually fact but the questions I appreciate them. You are very welcome. 866-34-TRUTH not to look the first believers certainly not all of them, but many of them certainly had an understanding of of Passover.

How I know it well. A couple of ways. One of them.

At first, Gentile believers are to be cleared first Gentile believers courses usually receive as part of the heritage calendar but for it. Gentile believers, the, the issue is this, many of them were in the synagogue when they heard Paul or someone like that preach. Why were they in the synagogue, they had not converted to Judaism. They had not taken on the full yoke of the law they had not say the man been circumcised and then immersed in water. No, but they were in the synagogue, they recalled God fears and they were viewed as righteous Gentiles, Gentiles, who revered the God of Israel turned away from idols who followed several basic moral commandments and that was it. We would know them today is as following the seven no hide laws based on some deductive reasoning from Genesis the ninth chapter. These universal principles for the entire world was revolutionary. Now when Paul and others would preach that you can have equal status with the children of Israel without having to become a Jew, or keep the entire law that was what was so revolutionary now we know then that they would have been familiar with the calendar of Israel because they were in the synagogue, they would they would know when the feast were being celebrated and the principles of rest on the Sabbath and the reading from the Scriptures they would hear all that.

So when Paul writes to the Corinthians. If you read acts chapter 18 you'll see that he first connected with these God fears in the synagogues of some of the first Gentile believers in Corinth were those that Paul met in the synagogue.

It stated plainly that you refer strengthens the 18th chapter. So what happens is that these Gentiles understand the calendars that Paul can say in first Corinthians 5.

Let us keep the Passover that he may be speaking metaphorically and he's talking about a spiritual application of the Passover, but they were certainly familiar with it. There were certainly familiar with the Passover because of being in the synagogue now again Thessalonians. Many of them came out of idolatry and they would not have been as familiar with these things alone even in in the idolatrous role that they had Jewish communities and admits they would still know something about the Jewish cycle of life for the Sabbath rest, or things like that but it's critically important for all followers of Jesus to understand the meaning of the Passover understand its purpose in ancient Israel and its fulfillment through the Messiah, not to separate as it is a new holiday called Easter, but rather to celebrate the death and resurrection of the Messiah within Passover. To me that's the idea.

Go ahead, celebrate his death and resurrection, and what was called Easter fine, but the better thing to do would be to do it in the midst of the Passover season is the one great celebration deliverance from bondage in Egypt and deliverance from bondage in sin through the blood of the Lamb. I French, just a quick reminder I haven't spoken about it much on the air, but we've got a great resource offer a special Jewish resource offer resource resource. We have a limited number of hardcover copies of my book, the real kosher Jesus literally limits the sales pitch with a limited number of copies the hardcover version which is otherwise not available, you can get it postage-paid with a free copy of the DVD is Christianity, Jewish, and we got a great price this week so give us a call today one 800-278-9978 1-800-278-9978 of the website asked Dr. Brown.

The lawyer asked Katie around our Lord right on the homepage to see that special offer. Take advantage of it.

You have copies left. But sooner, you order the better for those about to celebrate Passover consomm� happy holiday. 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 66343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown and the land that I have known and I had a guy I and I and I never heard that arrangement while while while I never heard that arrangement really really nicely done a cappella Diana jazz feel nicely done. 866-34-TRUTH number to call. Let's take some calls little back to talk about Passover and other Jewish related issues today audits the Maca beats all very cool name.

The Maca beats all right.

We go to Puerto Rico. Our friend Michael, welcome to the line of fire. Dr. Brown, are you going great. Thanks, Esther.

I'm debating the law and grace and the only the only line great paradigm that I find out consistent with all of Scripture is that Judaism is the national religion of Israel, of the state of Israel and and is a legitimate expression of faith and know in the word of God so in my opinion when Paul is talking about the law is vanishing. What you are referring to was the theocratic God nationstate was vanishing at that time, but not that the Judaism of the religious faith was vanishing, but that the theocratic state was vanishing, so also law and state where were one and the same in the mind of Paul Gibbons, is that such action that one says though I appreciate the point about the theocratic state, but your two Timothy was actually a he was the eighth chapter and then there it's it's it's very explicit in terms of what it's talking about it, it's talking about the sacrificial system in the earthly priesthood and things like that and and that's that's why he says plainly that if there's a change in the priesthood, then there has to be a change in law 70 with with the theocratic kingdom anything like that.

So, in speaking of a new covenant. 813 he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. So when you read Hebrews 7 and eight. The context there. It's quite explicit.

It's talking about the the earthly priestly ministry, the temple system. The sacrificial system. We now have a new and better high priest. If you have muck ascetic which means is no longer a primary priesthood through Aron, which means there is been a change any quotes from Jeremiah 31 versus 3134 which explicitly contrasts the new and better covenant with the Sinai covenant through no longer under the Sinai covenant. That's what was growing old and ready to vanish away.

Now there's a new and better covenant. It is to the house of Israel. The house of Judah. It is God putting his laws and teachings within our hearts so that it becomes our nature to follow him and then because of Israel's role to be a light to the nations it now becomes extended to the nations through the Messiah, but that's clearly what it's talking about it and read Hebrews 78 it's it's pretty explicit. Talking about the law but have a point of view of Judaism is consistent with the prophecies we have to you know if they're going to be 1/3 temple that means that the temple system, at least not not not say Leviticus of the sacrifices were fulfilled in Christ, and yet you walk, but being the grain offering was perpetual and certainly the calendar offerings where they went to Michael that the grain offerings went perpetual all that all the offerings were stated. This perpetual the grain offerings were only offered if the temple was standing. Israel didn't offer them otherwise. If you look in volume 4 of my series answering Jewish objections to Jesus. You'll see there that most of the things having to do with the priesthood blood sacrifices and various things were for all generations, forever and and they find their culmination in the Messiah and because of Israel's failure God makes a new and better covenant. I would encourage you to read Hebrews over and over and over, get that in your system and don't worry about 1/3 temple. Now I thank you for the call file 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 back to you. I mentioned this a couple times, but since it is the mentioned once it was really very, very interesting. When John Casey was going through religious part of Brooklyn and with matzoh being made in things like that and then on the way out of the matzoh factory makes his comment obviously want to say something, as a Christian bridging a gap to the Jewish men there the religious Jews and he says yeah you know was Christians that I will remember the Passover with you.

We put the blood there is always for the blood on the lampposts meant to say the doorpost, but in a slip of the tongue, said lampposts and he said get you notes and speaks to us of the blood of Jesus stuff just not what you would want to say added ultra-Orthodox Jewish bakery in their matzoh factory in Brooklyn and one of my ultra-Orthodox friends commented that if I could get any votes from that part of Brooklyn. Interestingly, a Ted Cruz did super super well in communities like Borough Park in Williamsburg, which are heavily populated by very religious Jews, but of course didn't help in the state overall. Obviously his New York values, didn't play well with other parts of the state, but certainly not New York City, but in any case.

In any case, that was this kind of interesting when I called yesterday season was great, he thought John Casey was being like a bold evangelist by the other thinks health crisis intent, 866-34-TRUTH we go to Alexandria, Virginia Larry, welcome to want to fire Brown welcome to make it fine but on my first question is did not look for was brought up in the study that Jesus his sweat became like drops of blood. I can't find anywhere that actual blood, but studies have been to both of everybody in the study it to be blood. And then they tell me they're really not that important important thing is that you may have blood significant meetings God get on with it was blood and analogy are product and might end up in any other question was another study, let me know what birth it was but it did mention where possible to bring back to repentance. Someone once experience the goodness of God. This is in the six chapter but potato it since it's thoroughly Jewish Thursday and we are we are focused on Jewish related questions specifically Jewish related questions. I will answer both quickly okay. First, in terms of Jesus sweating blood that he really sweat blood.

I have read of cases where people actually experienced something like that in the midst of intense anguish so is it something that is biologically possible. To our knowledge, from what I understand, yes. That being said, the text says it was as it were drops of blood and it could be read either way, it could be that it it appeared to be drops of blood or that it really was drops of blood. Either way, it would be highly unusual one. Does your sweat look like drops of blood doesn't so is either literally drops of blood.

The agony, the anguish was so intense that there were literally drops the blood of the agony anguish so intense that whatever was coming out of his skin looked like drops of blood. Presumably, the former so it does describe that very, very intense agony in a very very unusual way that certain is for the humor six passage. It does say there that is impossible for those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift if they fall away, to be renewed in repentance all read is impossible, in the case of those once been enlightened, tasted the heavenly gift, and share the Holy Spirit and tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt. Some would say once someone knows the Lord in falls way they can never come back.

The problem is the rest of the New Testament says explicitly the opposite rest of the Bible does calling on backside of Scripture the end of James Jacobs, the fifth chapter explicitly speaks of that in Luke the 15th chapter, the prodigal son, the whole history of Israel. So that can't be what it saying that if someone once knew the Lord turns away. They can never come back. The other say will it's it's really speaking of Israel and the Jewish people who experienced all of all of God's ways and goodness and promises in power but then turn away for the Messiah.

They can come back to repentance. But then the question we will why can't they come back to repentance.

The best way that I can understand this verse Larry is is this that it says since they are crucifying once again the son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt, that this in all likelihood is speaking of Jewish believers who have turned away and have now gone back to Jewish practices, thereby rejecting the son of God, thereby crucifying him once again and holding him up to contempt and in their mind they still have repentance. They still have forgiveness of sins they still have the Sinai covenant. They don't need this Jesus and there is no repentance for them as long as they are in that state and other words in their minds is Jews returning to church to the Sinai covenant to the exclusion of the Messiah, they were still fine. There was the right with God.

He say no impossible if they will renounce their sin if they will renounce the rejection of the Messiah if they will renounce their embracing of a Jewish religion that excludes the Messiah thereby crucified him again. Then they could be restored. That's how I understand it, but it's a very difficult passage, Larry, and there's a lot of dispute over it. Thanks for calling 866-34-TRUTH we go to Boston with Joseph, welcome to thoroughly Jewish Thursday on the line of fire by Dr. Brown. They are you doing you very much for having me on and I highly respect you.

Thank you Oliver. I hope I don't offend with questionable picker will collectively can handle any question.

But there is a video good video circulating around YouTube and he is a man Jewish man from the Harvard Square area in Cambridge and he has a lot of like sort of interview the Orthodox Christian. No, he was Jewish. Jackie talks about all these conspiracies with the duty of government. No anti-Christian sentiment in all this type of stuff.

Have you ever heard of him for an animal, what your opinion might be about this. Speaking of brother Nathaniel correct. Yes he's he's he's off the wall for guys is absolutely off the wall. That's a given Internet following your completely off-the-wall. I have watched a few of his videos and he is he is way out there and every kind conspiratorial thing at that site say what humor he makes Bernie Sanders look like Israel's best friend all the Israel bashing Bernie Sanders does. I actually have a video where I respond to brother Nathaniel and some people said you shouldn't be taking time to do it.

I thought it was important to to do so. If you go to my YouTube channel. I asked Dr. Brown ask a DR Brown and then just search for brother Nathaniel just put Nathaniel in there you will absolutely you'll absolutely get my take on it. One particular point is made. So yeah just way out there and then the way he looks at the it out this that whole thing adds to kind of the Internet intrigue because he's so far out there now III have read. I have read that Russian Orthodox have have reputed hit repudiated him. I don't know how widespread that is.

But I did read it and said he's not officially with a sword that whatever but you can check out my video it at the SK Dearborn abstractor brand YouTube channel. Thanks for the kind words Joseph got government all right but 866-34-TRUTH 87884. I will get you a couple more calls but we only got a short time before the next break up, take advantage of the resources that we have online. My latest article today. I wish I could shout this one out to the entire world.

It's time to stand up for transgender activism you'll see once again it's written with love and compassion for those who struggle but for right is is the time for us to say enough, enough, enough with the insanity, though I'm not calling someone identifies us transgender insane. I don't know the struggles they're going through and how long they felt with a felt and I want to help them from the inside out. I'm saying what we are doing as a culture is and saying it is insanity and I close the article by asking restating if we don't make a correction now than we may end up being required to to have litter boxes in the bathrooms. For those who identifies cats yes there are. There are such people 866-34-TRUTH 784 will be right back by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown, welcome back to the line of fire. In this Brown the light is always to be with you. 866-34-TRUTH I would go back to Boston. Jonathan walking to the line of fire by Dr. Brown how are you doing very well thank you, thank you for your ministry you're very welcome. I I am a fund's friend who keeps saying that Judaism is while I I have to live but it is laughable. Discussing the difference between Israelites Jews in Hebrew, and I know Judaism is more than just the Jewish religion but how can I get into an intelligent conversation, especially but don't I don't have a defense for when he starts talking about the source, what's that what's the point he's making, which is our line. I think the point of making that Jews is just a religion and that that if you're from Israel you're an Israelite and I also if you would, you know something what he has to understand. Is this right. There's a difference. But let's put that in the Hebrew to the side for the moment. This difference between being Jewish and practicing Judaism Judaism is a religion. Being Jewish is ethnic so if now you can become Jewish by converting to Judaism, so there is a religious parts to it. But ask him can you be an atheistic Jew, can you be a secular Jew, of course, the answer is yes, it's been through history so if the Bible is the authority in this. There were many times where the that the people of Israel were distant from God when I follow his commands, but they were still Israelites, God never said you not Israelites just to get out you not following me not having Israelites in the spirit you being disobedient so to be an Israeli. That means that you are a citizen of Israel, or even a native born salmon is Ray I'm not an Israeli. I'm a Jew I'm part of the people of Israel but I am not an Israeli and I'm not an Israelite, and Israelite as terminology is used would be someone who is part of of Israel and biblical times.

Israeli is a citizen of the state of Israel today, especially native born a Jew is someone who is part of the historic people of Israel. Regardless of that person's particular religious practices.

I just wrote and an article Bernie Sanders from one tree to another. I'm a Jewish follower of Jesus and he's a secular nonreligious Jew who barely believes in God and yet we both use now would be the heritage partner.yes yes if court according Raven, yeah that that we are both descendents from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. We are both descendents from the people of Israel were both descendents the same ultimate bloodline from which it from would say Paul came and Moses came and Isaiah came we came from that same ultimate bloodline as part of the people of Israel so Israelite refers to someone from Israel and biblical times. Israeli is a modern citizen of Israel, the nation of Israel as a whole that Jews worldwide and look if you live in Israel. Many Israeli Jews are very secular, totally nonreligious at all that will observe the Sabbath and observe the feast.

Many of them told me nonreligious. Right. And yet there still part of the people of Israel.

So Judaism is a religion. Being Jewish is both ethnic and religious but you can be an ethnic Jew without being religious right okay great.

Hopefully that will help all right.

It will thank you you're very welcome 866-34-TRUTH Wilmington Delaware John walking to the line of fire.

I don't Dr. Brown to law. Thank you so after coming up with what in your wing your opinion and personally what you do, how you interpret the Last Supper like should be celebrated regularly. You don't want the Mountlake messianic Jews do it enough, I understand pastor Burnett said conduit monthly.

Don't do it every week every day.

What do you think Jesus met his memory may, yes, certainly he was now making clear that within the Passover of the Last Supper, the Passover meal that that this was to be done with him is the center now recognizing that the symbolism having to do with his body and his blood as he became the Passover lamb and the one through whom we get deliverance from bondage. But there's also no question that this was now to be instituted on a regular basis. How regular is the subject that the New Testament does not address explicitly there. There are arguments that whenever the believers were gathered together in a home they would have what you call a love feast. Together they have a fellowship meal and this was part of the fellowship meal in others that you have the indication that this is more of a liturgical thing that was done just in the context of a of a church service. I've been part of assemblies that had communion every week. I've been part of assemblies have communion once a month. I know families that have communion in their homes. A regular basis. Certainly it should be something done corporately on a regular basis not just at the Passover. So the Last Supper from the Passover done a unique way with all of the elements of the Passover meal now and the scale down wages, partaking of the bread and the wine/grape juice for for many today that that is now something that is on a more regular basis not just once a year and that's certainly what the Masai was indicating and it certainly how his first followers practice that we have every indication that this was done on a regular basis. The question is, exactly how there is some dispute and debate and and how frequent this dispute debate.

I believe there is liberty there but it should be something regular in our own lives as believers regular in our congregations. I have friends that don't hand out that the little pieces of matzoh the little wafers and in the grape juice or wine instead they do it in the context of a communal meal that that all everybody. The car geisha gets together or in-house group to get together to have a meal and in the midst of the meal they partake of this as part of a larger celebration and then specifically remembering the Lord. The key thing is that we do in remembrance of him until he comes. As Paul lays out first Corinthians the 11th chapter. Very good. Thank you very much you're very welcome right friends at a time here, but not quite.

Not quite so case you missed the announcement earlier, I thought we were completely out of the hardcover edition of the real culture. Jesus, we printed up a couple thousand.

I say let us celebrate the Passover, remembering the blood of the Lamb from Passover to Bernie Sanders to terrorism in Israel welcome to thoroughly Jewish Thursday it's time for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH that's 866-34-TRUTH air again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome to thoroughly Jewish Thursday is ready for the Passover and in the Jewish world 866-34-TRUTH. If you have a Jewish related question religious.

Excuse me judicially question a Hebrew related question question going to Judaism, Jewish religion or tradition. The conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, even Islamic related questions gladly take your calls today. If it's a biblical question. Make sure make sure it is a Jewish or Israel related biblical question 866-34-TRUTH 87884. Here is something really interesting. The memory TV is in it. It's the Middle East media research Institute. It's an incredible resource memory Emmy MRI memory TV.org and when you when you go there you'll find latest comments sermons from a mosque in Egypt from up a Muslim preacher in Ron from Palestinian Authority TV and it's all you'll see the actual footage and it's translated into English. You can even click another page in this read the transcript and it's shocking stuff when you hear some of the things being priest and mosques in need and got the sky screaming and yelling and taking out a sword or a holy of suicide vest.

Here's a guy would destroy the Jews and this is actually happening is actually happening. So here something fascinating. Saudi Arabia author Saeed also write has said that the older of ISIS emerge from our history books, Saudi Arabia and author same is February 12, 2016 is an author and literary critic and he said this in a TV interview on sky news Arabia Fairbury 12th 2016. So the interviewer says he wants said that ISIS emerge from the history books. Please elaborate and he says servlets read our history.

How did Islam spread as we know Islam spread to the east and to the west and spread westward through the various conquest, the battles, the commanders, the dead, the storm cities the burnt ships know every detail of this history can every commander in house tell me to really know how Islam spread to the east of the reach India and Sri Lanka job, the Philippines and South China. We don't know how the forefathers always millions of people became Muslims reason we don't notice that history link the spread of Islam to the sword the battles the killings in the wars. It does not tell us how model Conda can spread Islam among people is an amazing statement. Therefore, and ISIS want to fight neighbors lawn, they evoked a history that links the spread of Islam with wards.

We have no history to tell us how model conduct can spread as long we need to know how Islam entered the Malay Archipelago with no killings, no battles, no commands, no burnt ships. This is absent from the religious discourse yes it is absent from religious discourse from the history books.

That is why ISIS droids upon the history books, as well as upon extremist rulings in the books of jurisprudence when you break ISIS down you find extremist jurisprudence history link to battles and blood. ISIS is the sum total of all the mistakes with which we failed to deal until the older we call ISIS emerge the understand that he saying that Islamic history and radical Islamic rulings in the past have been the things that have given birth to ISIS have been the things that have allowed ISIS to say hey we are Muslims and we are doing with the Quran says what Mohammed did with Islamic tradition says and what Islamic history teaches us in this is a Saudi Arabia author making that statement. God reawakening and enlightening to the Muslim world and they even look further discover who Jesus the Messiah is like that. 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 is welcome to thoroughly Jewish Thursday value thoroughly Jewish host today it's it's interesting when I came to faith in Jesus. My dad was thrilled to see me off drugs. Once he saw was serious how you feel when you find a 15-year-old kid shooting heroin right so it was thrilled to see my life turned around, but then said okay were Jews believe in Jesus and that he wanted me to talk to local Rabbi the many hurdles can get baptized. That's just my got a bit more concerned is that less is more serious were Jews and we want religious Jews what my father felt deep enough about being a Jew. Judaism that in one sense rebaptized in the asked the rabbi wall of them assessing rebaptized rabbi said they is the pure baptized you the rich don't don't get too upset about it. He still Jewish others. Some say no and on the longer Jewish some Jesus said, but the normal historic position would be wanted you diet you and of course by embracing the Messiah of Israel. My Jewishness is been heightened my appreciation for the Jewish calling and purpose has been heightened and deepened. I quite assure you I would not be reading the Bible and Hebrew a regular basis if not for coming to know Jesus as the Messiah was by live long enough, it is for been a secular Jew, 866-34-TRUTH it was a Jew blue Jew blue Jewish Buddhist tax return Jews in the West with the highest number of converts to Buddhism in the 60s early 70s there about yeah and and it became a big movement so they there are lots of books on this Jew blue that's that's the term Jewish related questions 866-34-TRUTH 7884.

Let me illustrate this for you with a Jewish joke. Are you ready there was a Jewish man living in a Catholic community the only non-Catholic in the community a few decades back where the Catholic Church had a no meat on Friday. Rule seeking fish on Friday but no meat and this is a devout Catholic community so they live by this, but every Friday Jewish guy would not only cook steak, but he'd cook it on the grill in his backyard year-round and it was maddening that here's the one day you can eat meat and it was just kind it was a small community. The smell of the steak. We just scuttled waft through the. The air and people would spell it outside their homes and and they were getting frustrated and hard enough not to have me in over them and no matter how much you want that they can have it.

But with this guy cooking steak. It was getting maddening so they think they said to the priest father you got to do something please. You've got got a help the civil see what I can do what he begins to visit the Jewish guy and over a number of weeks skews me the.

The Jewish man, a convert to Catholicism while and for a few weeks.

All is well know steak no smell of steak. Everybody's happy. And then suddenly steak is cooking steak.

So if you are the people come to call the priestess of follies steak again to the priest go straight over to the house I said what are you doing see what anyone might, he said. A lot of steak it's written cannot meet on Friday.

He said, is not steak that's fish civil what you mean, that's steak, is it none of the father that's that's that's the steak that's fish is that steak it's a piece of meat, red meat, steak this for Macau is valid that's that's me, that's that steak is known the father is not a steak. It's vicious that I learned that from you what you talking about, you learned from Lisa Miller a few weeks ago. Father said you brought me over in the and in the sink in the kitchen and you said a few words and then you sprinkle water over me a few times and you said you no longer Junior Christian someone I did the same things that I got that steak at the store. I sprinkle some water over a singular steak or fish. So the whole punchline being you can sprinkle water on the person that doesn't stop them from being a Jew anymore than sprinkling water on a steak makes it into a fish question is what kind of Jews will be will be faithful to gobble the honor gobble we be loyal to God. We follow his commandments.

What is he wants to keep Willie embraces Messiah would be a light to the nations will be glorify the God of Israel in the earth who will you be how will we live.

That's a question I share the gospel with someone I tell about Jesus of country Jewish person they sell is mortgage all dieters you correct, you will report geological ecology and interview Jew with whom God is pleased to be a Jew that that is blessed by God that honors God. That's a questionable energy Digest correct was argument that we can be an atheist acute you Jewish Buddhist review Jewish and you could be a Jewish Muslim so still Jewish, not did averages for all. I actually I saw a cell website that one time, yeah, Jews who had converted to Islam that but one the words that we never use in sharing the gospel.

The dispersants convert are you being deceptive. No being truthful. One of my friends asked what it was like to be converted.

Julie said I don't know because is not a sin to be a Jew set on a converted center rear converted from sin, but when I converted from a July converted mail and still a male converted humanist of the human brain converted center so the salmon Jewish converts to Christianity.

No I'm not that's that's a mistaken description of a Jewish follower of Jesus a a convert from sin from the power of Satan to the power of God into a holy life.

That's the conversion that's why we don't use the word convert.

That's why we don't use the word across a lot because it's associated with Crusades and butchering of Jewish people. It's associated with anti-Semitism in Jewish history. So we talk about Jesus dying for our sins. We don't and I got on the cross but we, if you put certain words out to a Jewish audience often they are offputting. You got a convert. Where were here is Christ Crusaders holding up a big cross the same convert to Christianity. Talk about a wrong message to send to Jewish person.

Not only is it a non-historical message for this absolute contrary to what would have been the reality in the first century before there was such a thing known as quote Christianity of the Christian religion. This was understood as a Jewish faith that was now open to the Gentiles as opposed to a foreign faith that Jews had to enter by abandoning their old ways.

Look, there are there are even there are even baptismal formulas from the Middle Ages, where for a Jew to be baptized, he would have to renounce his heritage. He would have to renounce all connection to the Jewish people.

He would have to renounce circumcision, renounce the Sabbath renounce Passover renounce Hebrew names for his children. He would have to renounce everything Jewish, he would have to embrace eating pork, he would have to curse the rabbis and venerate Mary yeah II have these copied out of a book. Her hands are stained with blood, and in fact if you take advantage of this week special resource offer.

The real kosher Jesus the hardcover edition out with the DVD section of my testimony from LSD to PhD with a special Jewish outreach focus in that if if you read that you will get a glimpse of some of the horrors of church history in terms of pushing Jewish people away. Think of the in order to follow the Jewish Messiah. You have to cease being Jewish. What in order to embrace the Messiah of Israel. You have to cut off all connection to the people of Israel. What in order to embrace the Messiah of Israel.

You have to embrace eating pork and venerating Mary what talk about something blasphemous, talk about something horrific talk about something that is the exact opposite of of the.

The messianic faith that came to Jewish people through Jewish people and is about a Jewish Messiah while but that's what happened when believers lost sight of the roots.

That's what happened when Gentile believers failed to heed what Paul wrote Romans 11 so we know the sin of the Jewish nation and not embracing the Messiah as a nation, the leaders not embracing him as a nation that we know the sin of the Gentile church through much of history cutting itself from its Jewish roots becoming arrogant and thinking we are the new Israel and we have replaced the old Israel, and it ultimately led to the shedding of much Jewish blood through history shamefully. That's white so thrilling to see for so many decades and centuries as a small remnant of Christians who because they love the God of Israel and love the scriptures love the people of Israel.

It's very special in God's sight. 866-34-TRUTH will be right back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice important cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown and it is the Passover season can you get singing about Jesus. Yeshua the Lamb of God, the fulfillment of the ancient Passover right 866-34-TRUTH you got Jewish related questions.

We got Jewish related answers. May I encourage you during this special holiday season where Jews around the world will gather for Passover meals called the Seder where Jews were not religious will even gather with families to celebrate a pray that I should be open. Pray that the message of the Messiah would go forth, pray as Jewish followers of Jesus make him known through the Passover rights that eyes would be open hearts would be changed. Pray that the church would take hold of its Jewish roots not not for the purpose of Gentiles becoming Jews for the purpose of embracing the rightness of the faith for the purpose of having our roots rightly establish the purpose of rightly understanding the word in the larger mission, and calling of God's people 866-34-TRUTH 87884 I did. I do want to talk about media reporting about Israel. I mentioned it in the first hour. How how CNN reports on the bus bombing in Israel on Monday so bomb explodes on one bus five catches on a neighboring bus 21 people injured, some critically, one mother describing how she's looking for her daughter and finds her and she's burned over her whole body then sedated in the hospital. I mean who. Gosh, 15-year-old girl. I think it was just this terrific and how to CNN initially reported bus fire bus fire at this happened so many times bus fire. You know, a couple years back a couple years back when when there was a tragic shooting ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem called Parnell of the Palestinian Terrace when in as is religious Jews. Rabbis were praying.

So this is very, very early in the morning and stabbed and hacked some to death. And then there was a shootout, a Druze policeman was killed but that the pictures from the synagogue in the path of blood in the bloodied books in prayer shows it was absolutely horrific and ugly family members wanted people to see. Not not the bodies but that the bloodbath in the synagogue. How did I do it weekly report on CNN was a mosque lessening and then you will read ghetto for Jews. One Palestinian or two Palestinians killed in conflict is no way she is something like that. The wake is reported is so completely miss leading.

So this it's been documented from LA Times to BBC. We've we've posted these things and I talked about them on the air that studies were done over periods of time to select early 2000 and let's say that Israel launched missiles against Palestinian Terrace. There was a Israel launches missiles, Israel kills Palestinians they would be the aggressive ones and they would clearly be responsible for their actions etc. then turn around if it was Palestinians attacking Israelis would say to Israelis Diane bombing a bomb goes off kills to an ambulance. Bob's bombs went off whose bomb who placed it, why not say it was Terrace when I say it so remarkably remarkably, this is the way things are reported so BBC reports on the bombing on Monday. This is a bombing there is reports without serious terrorist Israeli government racist terrorist attack is clear evidence Israeli government terrorist attack now now this bombing bus fire bombing so there is an article on camera today. This is the committee for accuracy in Middle East reporting in America. Time magazine ignores facts to denigrate Israel by Ricky Hollander. Time magazine is a long and unfortunate history of anti-Israel media bias dating back many decades. May 1990 and 1977. Time magazine article introducing Menachem Begin, Israel's newly elected prime minister began by setting all the negatives attributed to him by his critics before infamously noting that his name rhymes with Fagan the villainous Jew from Oliver twist, with all the anti-Semitic implications invoked by the comparison. Time magazine 1977 so they have since then. Time magazine is periodically published egregiously biased in this informative articles negative features about Israel's leaders and society, and it goes on with further examples why look at this magnitude of time magazine's anti-Israel bias was evidenced in the Frank anti-Israel imagery of September 2010 cover displaying and is a large mug and David to the Star of David, comprised of daisies with the headline why Israel doesn't care about peace. The story that once again invoked anti-Semitic stereotypes of this month. April there were two misleading time magazine features on the Palestinian Israeli conflict.

We want to follow us and have drawn into an article about a controversial decision by Haifa high school principal to abolish an annual trip to Holocaust sites in Poland so the article April 5, 2016 call the cauldron of heparin consists of a gallery 15 caption photos by Beirut based photographer Lorenzo to cannoli company by short descriptive essay by times former Jerusalem bureau chief Carl Vickers anti-Israel bias has been well documented fight camera against camera.org to look for analysis of Middle East reporting and it was edited by international multimedia editor Andrew Katz. The future presents a one-sided view that depicts the Palestinians and Sopranos natives oppressed by Jewish colonialists. Palestinians are shown as victims of or demonstrators against Israel's purse is really persecutors will Jewish residents of Cabral were not photograph or caricature this interlopers guarded by an army of soldiers who tormentor kill Palestinians. This is a perspective that erases Jewish history. Reality is a perspective that favors the Palestinian narrative and denies the millennia long historic Jewish presence in the city counted as one of Judaism for a few reasons. For holy cities. For example, one photo caption uses only Arabic term for him.

He mosque describe the biblical cave of the patriarchs of Judaism's holiest sites talk about putting out a narrative putting out a narrative completely completely in Palestinian terms. Yes, there are issues in Cabral and that need to be addressed in terms of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We can address Israel but the one-sided presentation. This is just so typical and your average person doesn't recognize it. And anyway second article will fit into that right now the check out camera the Lord for living back with your Jewish call it 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 66343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown back to our thoroughly Jewish Thursday broadcast robust astronomy now this is Michael Brown. Thanks so much for being with us Passover season this week and see why the separation between Passover and Easter because of the fourth century under Constantine the church of that day decided to make a formal break from following the Jewish calendar and there was dispute between Eastern and Western church of went to celebrate the Passover, went to rent to celebrate Easter, I should say should be done in conjunction with the Jewish calendar and Jewish calculations, or should it be done separately and Constantine did not want to Jewish connection so tragically, rather than Christians celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus. At the same time the Jews are celebrating the Passover and celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus in the context of the Passover. Instead, it's two separate things as if they are two separate religions two separate gods. It's a shame came out of anti-Semitism in the early church 866-34-TRUTH Albert, Des Moines, Iowa Paul walking to the line of fire. I don't Dr. Hancock I call your doctor because of the Navy and that's recall all her doctors spine. I did start and you're trying to write a book or think about long about how Chris Judaism come to the United States. I was unknown on the and no that's not that's not exactly right that that that's okay I I am in the book I'm working on now I am talking about some of the strong early Christian influences on on early American history for sure.

Okay.

Yeah, well� Go along back just recently straight. My family heritage back mainly because my great-grandmother I seen a picture of her and got little details.

She was a mixed race of Native American African and European leader interested.

It was from Appaloosa County and Iowa next when it was still a territory at very so. What I found out it. She bother what both a Mennonite or all Moravian and that kind of conduct to the theory was Moravian Iowa so the bet church made that faith that they had the brother church and implemented the Township law.

The friendship there gathered all kinds of people hated that Ashley and I hate to jump in but time is short. We get a break coming up so you jump to the punchline of this whole story here real quick to find out that my mother used was Jewish and that whole process. When was the name English Jewish descent and so I just wanted to know exactly word. Is there a divide. Now it can I still call call my cell Jewish when I contacted the Israeli state that you are what define their mother or grandmother if you can demonstrate if you can demonstrate if you were trying to become Israeli citizen Paul this would be the only reason it would be relevant if you were trying to become Israeli citizen and you could demonstrate that your mother was Jewish. Not that she had no a fraction of Jewish blood going back six generations.

If you could demonstrate that she was Jewish. In the case of my mother even though she and my father are not religious Jews. They still got married and habits: tuba, which is the Jewish document of of that that's the Jewish marriage
