This is the Truth Network. Welcome to Truth Talk Live. All right, let's talk the truth news. I can't hide it. On it.
A daily program powered by the Truth Network. This is kind of a great thing and I'll tell you what. Where pop culture, current events, and theology all come together. Speak your mind. And now, here's today's Truth Talk Live host.
And boy, are we live today? We couldn't be more live. We are in Jerusalem. Like, oh my goodness, are we in Jerusalem? at the Grand Court Hotel in Jerusalem with the 1,000 historic Pastors, or whatever you want to say, it's a thousand pastors that have descended on Israel for this historic event that is going on as Israel has paid for these pastors, Christian educators, to come to Israel to hear their side of the story, especially about October 7th.
And so, what an honor it is today to have with me on this adventure. Like, how cool is it that I have my Dear friend and often co-host, Dr. Date the Word just released his new book, Carson. Yeah. And another very, very, very dear friend, Nikita, the Russian nightmare Koloff, who released another book on audio that I helped him with, like The Tale of Ring and Redemption.
Labored for hours and hours with. Yes. Funniest part, we did three chapters, and Robbie goes, How many chapters? We did four chapters in three hours.
So he goes, How many chapters do you have? 12? I said, 39, Robbie. We're going to be here a while. Yeah, we were.
But that's an awesome book. I got to hear all of it. And so, yeah, you. But I mean, what a neat thing. And I'm going to let Dr.
Carson, because he's the one that informed us about it. And uh he has the connections that that helped put this together and so amazing that we get to do this, Dr. Carson. Yeah, as we've been watching the events unfold over the past couple years, first off with The horrendous events of October the 7th, 2023, thousands of Israelis killed. maimed, raped.
It was just awful. And, um Then we start seeing a lot of people in America that we never would have thought of. that started being anti-Israel. And um As as as Christians around the world, not just in America, but Christians around the world, started wondering what is happening with Israel and what's the press saying. There came some conversations about what we can do to make sure that Evangelical leaders are seeing the truth, knowing exactly what happened.
And so there came an invitation about six months ago that about a thousand pastors would come over at this time, December the 1st through the 8th, and see firsthand. And tomorrow we're going to be going down to Gaza. We're going to see the tunnels. We're going to meet with those who have been held hostage so that we know firsthand exactly the horrendous events that have been taking place against our Jewish friends. Yeah, and this show is live, and believe me, it's so live, we would love to hear from you.
So if you've got questions about our trip or you want to know what we're experiencing and that kind of stuff in Israel, we would love to hear your calls. 866-348-7884-866-3487. 7884 and Nikita, we're going to the where actually they had that Rock concert where it all went down, really, tomorrow, right, Nikita? It is, yeah, the Nova Nova Festival. You know, and interestingly enough, my pastor, Jay Stewart, was just here several weeks ago and went down there and learned that they didn't even know they being Hamas, they didn't even know the festival was happening.
That was just like a bonus for them because they were just intending to go in all these Knessets and all these villages and do the damage that we all saw done. And yeah, just to be a part of this, and boots on the ground, right? We are here being boots on the ground. You can hear lots of things through media, through news, social media, and all of that. But we're going to be first-hand witnesses to everything that transpired and took place.
And historic. They said it's historical. And I'm just looking at some of my notes here. Never before have a thousand pastors gathered together and going down to hear from some of the survivors, some of the families that were a part of that massacre, names on the wall. I'm sure people have seen some of the footage of this you know, the tribute to all the ones who were kidnapped.
And so yeah, tomorrow's going to be a pretty I got a feeling it's going to be a pretty emotional day getting to comfort some of the hostages and their families. And we're getting we get to be a part of that.
So what are your thoughts? You know, as you think about what happened October 7th or Israelis' policies with Gaza, do those things trouble you? 866-348-7884. We would love to hear your thoughts. 866-348-7884.
And I've got to tell you, man, you guys, we're on three different planes. Right, yes, and we came in at all different times. Like, I arrived this morning at six o'clock. You were here last night, Nikita. Last night at 8:30-ish, yeah.
And then I finally showed up at 6 o'clock tonight, wondering if I was ever going to make it to Jerusalem. We're all at different stages of jet lag, but thank you, Jesus. We're for a second wind. I'm starting to catch that second wind. It does.
You know, it's beautiful that as we have been talking today, meet see you different people. There are, of these thousand pastors, I've already started realizing we basically have a pastor from every state. Set by a gentleman tonight from New Hampshire, and he has a vested interest in Israel, and then from California, and then state after state after state.
So this is not a small from one area that just got to... This is our entire country right now has pastors here to know exactly what's happening with Israel, how we can best support this country. Yeah, last night, Buildings, Montana, met some pastors from Buildings, Montana. This evening, after dinner, South Dakota.
So yeah, it truly is a Louisiana, Massachusetts, New York. I mean, and they're just all over the place. And I've actually been a complete slacker, which those who know me well, like my wife, would say, yeah, Robbie does stuff like this. We have another pastor with us on the area. He's actually helping us video it here.
Behind the scenes, I guess you could say today. Or at least behind the books. He is from the faraway state of Greensboro, North Carolina. It's far away right this minute. I'm not from around here.
No, I'm not. But you're from Northside, right? I am. Baptist Church in Greensboro. I am.
You have been there since 18 and the wonderful people there. And we're a church that just focuses on the homeless. You're not talking about 2018. You're talking about when you were 18. Oh, yeah.
Then I would have been there a long, long time. But no. No, you've been there since 2018. I've been there since 2018. Not called there.
I was drug kicking and screaming. That's a whole nother podcast.
Well, we also love that you're here to join this and see what it is. And I can just tell you that. I had the most amazing experience in several places. The the security guard Here at the hotel. I was talking to him because he was helping me find some of the equipment I needed so that we could actually do this broadcast.
He said You have no idea what America has done for our hearts over the last three years. And I mean, it was almost like with tears in his eyes talking about. How Amazing. Our presidents have been in support of them. How amazing Franklin Graham's ministry has been to buy the ambulances when they bought seven right there and.
And he said, there's a thousand of you guys coming. to support Israel and and and get the get the the language right, you know, from the pulpit across the country. And and and I love what it it says on that hat. Right? Say it, Nikanda.
The pulpit must speak louder than the propaganda. Look, there's lots of propaganda out there. And I just want to take a moment and give a quick shout out to Dr. Mike Evans, founder of Friends of Zion. I know we may mention him later as well, but just on the early broadcast, Dr.
Mike Evans, Friends of Zion here, boots on the ground here, who's made all of this possible for all of us to come and experience this historic week. It is, and you're experiencing it with us. And so we would love your calls. We'd love your questions. 866-348-7884-866-34 TRUTH.
Will Ruby be right back? Truth talk line. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Welcome back to Truth Talk Live. Today is very live from Israel.
We're actually in Jerusalem tonight. How exciting is it as we are part of this? Ambassador tour 1,000 pastors and Christian influencers have arrived for December 1st through the 8th with the Friends of Israel. I'm with Nikita. Cole off, like what a fun thing, man, to be with Nikita, Dr.
Carson, with Steve, it's for such a time as this to see, you know, what God's doing. And that's the part Nick. that like it takes your breath. Like You get emotional. Yeah, and I got a feeling the next several days will be emotional, at least they will be for me.
And I sense many others, but. Yeah, I i even the you know, you were mentioned earlier, like the tour guides that were assisting us from the airport to the hotel last night. The gal Yeah. Wow.
Okay, I'm getting emotional now 'cause uh she Couldn't have been more thrilled. That we are all here. She goes, We haven't had tours in two years. We've not been in and you're our our first tour. in two years.
And we are so excited that you guys are here. we get the honor of of showing you around this historic place, you know, and If you ever read your Bible, you know, you see these stories, you know, the Sea of Galilee and the streets of Jerusalem and where Jesus walked. But. It's one thing to read about it, but we're literally here this week and we're gonna be uh Part of it. Yeah, and you don't know when it's going to happen, Doc, right?
Like, it it could be when you step up on that step of the temple mound and you go, Wow, Jesus was here and I'll grab you. Or it might be when you touch that wall, or it might be. Sea of Galilee. Yeah, wherever it hits you. This is where our Lord and Saviour spends time.
You're never the same. Like, these are moments you will never, ever forget as long as you live. And on that note, let me just say to all of you listening out there. I mean, if you're a Christ follower, a Jesus lover, I want to tell you, put it, it's not on your bucket list or in your book, however, you want to say, if you had never planned to come to Israel, I'm telling you, if this call, this show today doesn't motivate you more than ever, regardless, put it in. Put it on your l As a Jesus' follower, a disciple of his, I encourage every one of you to somehow, some way, make a point of getting here and experiencing for yourself firsthand.
And that's a part of what we're going to be helping to do when we go back home, too: is help to promote to communities and local churches and you know. you know, help or organize tour groups and they're just looking for us to come back and support.
Some of the pastors that are part of this 1,000, they are here for their very first time. And it's so neat today being on a bus talking with two, especially a younger pastor. Um just What What am I going to be seeing? And what am I going to be experiencing? And he had a Bible.
uh what are those that that you can touch, not digital. And uh I I just told him, I I said, I'm really glad you brought a what we call a physical Bible because uh as I brought tr uh Groups for years over here. I always say get a physical Bible, and as people take you to different places, let's just say you go to Bethlehem.
Well, you go to Matthew chapter 2, you go to Luke chapter 2, and you write down. the date that you saw it. And so here you are, for instance, at Mount Carmel. You go to 1 Kings 18 and you just write. No, yeah, you'll never forget it.
And you put that in your Bible.
So that later on, and and I've got my Bible right here, and I can be going through here, and all of a sudden I'll see a date when I was here, and I saw this. And I always put first time, and then I'll write the other times that I saw it. It just it helps. It's like for me, Okay, I've heard about the Battle of Gettysburg. But there's something about walking the battlefield of Gettysburg.
It's not that you cannot know the Lord Jesus Christ without coming to Israel. I don't want to have anybody feel like I've got to go to Israel to know God's word. No. You don't. The Holy Spirit's there to work.
But it's just something about being, for me, Sea of Galilee. I know this is the Sea of Galilee that's mentioned in the Bible. And to think about Jesus. L C Chose his disciples as he taught his disciples, as he put them in storms. And there are still storms that come up on the Sea of Galilee.
One time we were here, Robbie, a storm came up. All these students, like, Pastor, how did you pull that one off? I said, well, watch. In a minute, I'm walking up on God. Yeah, yeah.
Now, I do challenge them to see if they'll walk on water, and none of them ever do. And I say, chicken, but then they want me to do it. But the bottom line is. We do hope as you're listening to this, we're letting you know Israel is open for people to come and let your Bible come to greater life.
Well, Doc, there's a couple things come to mind. I'll say real quick. It's the difference between exposure and experience. It's one thing to be exposed to the Bible, exposed to the scriptures. It's another thing to experience it firsthand.
And that's what you're going to have happen. Let me give you a little quick visual for you listening out there. If you ever were a kid who had those pop-up books, you open them up and little houses or castles or things popped up out of the book.
Well, I assure you, you come to Israel, you experience it firsthand. When you go back home, you open your Bible, it's going to be a pop-up Bible. Everything's just gonna page by page just pop up. Yeah, like your friend says, taste and see. Taste and see.
Right? It's an invitation. And when you taste it, like, oh my goodness, it will come to life. But what say you? What are you thinking out there?
What would you like to know about this trip? What is your view on it? Maybe you see something else behind it. 866-348-7884. We would love to hear from you.
866-348-7884. You know, the rainy season is supposed to start right. after the feast of inn gathering. And it's delayed this year. And Jewish people, they have a strong tie that God controls the rain.
And if there's no rain.
Some shenanigans are about. And so it came a little late.
However, as I got off the plane, because I was here in May. I immediately saw like Oh, it's green. And you see Zephaniah come to life, and you see Ezekiel come to life, like all those mountains blooming, and all these things turning green. and all this traffic. Yes, oh my, the traffic tonight.
I said, this is a modern country. Lots of uh Five o'clock traffic. I'll say it that way. Isaiah 35 for me. Right.
That's when the desert begins to bloom. And every time I've been here, watching how more of the desert gets pushed back. Right, it does, and it's getting pushed back in Judah now as well, which is this unbelievable looking desert. And as you see stuff bloom, it's like, man. These are headlines that are more current.
Than what's in the newspapers. I mean, they just they just are, and you know, that that God gave us this opportunity to be here like And does it matter? You've already said about those that have spoken to you about how it mattered. Nikhil, I've said it to you. I get on the plane.
I don't know who I'm going to be sitting with. I'm sitting beside a Jewish businessman, and he's hearing about this, and he says, you don't know what this means to us. I said, tell me. He said, listen. We need America's support.
We need your prayers. And we developed a friendship right there on the plane. And just to say how much it meant to him to know. People are coming because we love this nation like they love this nation.
So inquiring minds need to know, Doc. No, because I've been around you enough to know.
So you're sitting with this Jewish businessman on a plane for eight, nine hours, however long, plus whatever while you waited on the tarmac because they thought your plane had a problem. Did you ask him the date of his birthday? Did you give him an Old Testament Bible verse? I gave him April. Hold on, wait a minute.
Did he go New Testament or did he go old? We will find out when we come back. No, no, no, don't jump. We gotta wait. We're gonna go with that.
Don't make him suspense. To be right back. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Ah We'll welcome her back soon. True Talk Live today.
We are so live from Jerusalem. At the Grand. Court. Hotel and and Pastor Steve walked quite a ways to get here to be with you tonight as well. We got Nikita and Dr.
Carson as we are part of this. Amazing event, right? Historical and on the plane, when we left our hero, Dr. Carson, he was sitting next to this. Orthodox Jewish, so we need to get a little more of the picture here.
So, is he wearing the hat? No. Has he got chomits on? No, no, he's just a Jewish businessman.
Okay, so he isn't wearing black. Nope, nope. Others were. Oh, there's always, yeah. And and boy, when it came time to pray this morning, they were praying.
Up and down the aisle. I love it. I love it. I love to see him stand up and do that. You know, they didn't do it on my plane?
I wanted to watch it. I had at least five. I was about to cry. I didn't see him. Did you see him, Steve?
No. I was surprised. I was shocked. There were a couple like standing in the. Plane doesn't have corners, but they were standing by.
I guess the corner were the lavatory and the exit door, kind of in that area. The four corners is where they want to get because you know, that's the whole thing. Yeah, in that little area over there, there were a couple of them that were very engaged. And they dived, they go back and forth back and forth. And then there was a number of ladies this morning that were up praying and had their Bibles.
Isn't that amazing? And they turned their phone on, the light on, so they could read their Bibles this early morning. I love that.
So anyway, we left our hero. He was sitting there next to this Jewish businessman. And if you know Dr. Carson, he never sits by anybody on a plane. He's not going to ask him or a waitress in there.
It's like I could tell you similar stories about Nikita and the waitresses. But I mean, about what he's going to ask them. But everybody has their thing.
So I know that you were asked this question.
So he gives you a date of 4:21.
Now. Dr. Carson Doesn't think like Robbie. Right. I would immediately go.
All right, 421, right? I was, you know. There's got to be Exodus 421, Habakkuk 420. You know, there's got to be the three chapters in Habakkuk, Robbie.
Well, hey, you know. He's just thinking out loud. Think it hell loud. That's all right. You're thinking we've got to give him an Old Testament verse.
So, anyway. Doc, what did you hit him with?
Well, I just thought he needed to know 1 John 4:21. He did need to know it. And this commandment that we have from him. That is He who loves God. must love his brother also.
which is based off of What Jesus said, love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind, which is based off of Deuteronomy chapter 6, verse 5, which he knows. Right. He understands.
So he says, yes, the law teaches this. We're supposed to love God. But he said, interestingly, now we have these words in there, but it's love, just love straight through. Don't worry. with some of your hearts, with some of your strength.
It's all of it. If you're loving God, you're loving him with every bit, completely, totally. I was like, he's preaching to me. And then I said, now he does need a new Old Testament verse.
So I gave him an Old Testament verse, Proverbs 4, 21. Do not let them depart from your eyes. Keep them in the midst of your heart. And he really identified with that, that Deuteronomy 6 speaks about getting God's word into your heart. And Proverbs...
it kind of puts that nail on it, that that you must be memorizing scripture.
So we were having a great time, yes. And and then we talked about my anniversary verse being Song of Solomon six four. And uh that that His wife is as beautiful as Jerusalem. And he said, You know, that is true. Jerusalem is such a beautiful city.
And to compliment your wife by saying you're as beautiful as Jerusalem.
So we were talking about that. It was just a great conversation.
Now we got Buxman. From Ohio. We do.
Well, Bucksman, you're on Truth Talk Live, my friend. What say you? This is so awesome, you guys. I just happened to turn on the radio and you guys are in Israel. And I asked the producer, I said, are they really in Israel?
And they said, yes, they flew out. I guess, Robbie, you flew out on Monday. Nikita, I still want to get with you, my friend. I meant to await you in St. Clairsville.
Yep. Ohio, remember that? I I do. I'm still I'm still waiting to put a face with a name and a voice there, my friend. Brother, we were so close to that church, and my car, the bus mobile broke down.
I needed somebody. I wish there was a Christian car guy I could call. Do you know of any good Christian car guys, Nikita, Dr. Carson, anybody who's come to Mars? You know, you must be living the good life because I just happen to be sitting next to a guy that might be able to help you out somewhere here in the future.
Yeah, it's actually 10:35 here at night. 11:35. Excuse me, it's 11:35. They have 11:35. It's 1135.
We'll finish up at midnight, but it's worth it so we could we can we can so we can talk with you, business. All stopping, guys. You guys are a blessing. And and yeah, I realize the the time differences. You know, uh Nikita, you're gonna have to teach them some of those uh wrestling moves so that they can exercise themselves and and, you know, not fall asleep during the program.
Well, what's interesting is there's quite a number of pastors, others that I've already met that, believe it or not, I'm sure you'll believe it, that are wrestling fans. Can you imagine that? All the way up from all parts of the country, from all parts of the country. I brought them back to the age of 12. Oh, and they're like, wait, well they we're doing a roll call and they're like, Nikita Koloff, like the real Nikita Koloff is here in Israel with us.
Back in the eighties. Yeah. Yep. So yeah, it's been fun hearing some of their stories for me.
So But yeah, it's been uh amazing. Go ahead. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. Oh, oh losing bucksman. Yeah. We're losing you, Buxman. Buxman, you're standing in Lake Michigan right now.
Well, we'll put Buxman on hold and see if we can get him back in a minute. We'll see if we can get him back in a minute while you line up your call: 866-348-7884-86348. Seven, eight, eight, four. Yeah. Go ahead, Nikkitt.
Well, Robbie, did you know this this what this historic event that we're a part of was was ten years in the making? Did you know that? I did not know that. Yeah. Dr.
Mike Evans, you know, just kind of reading over s the some of the motivation behind putting all this together through Friends of Zion, through his museum there, which is way more than just a museum. We're going to go away. Um we're gonna be blown away. I watched a little video on it on YouTube. We're gonna be blown away by the friends of Zion Museum and what all they do there.
But yeah, dream of his starting uh uh ten years ago um with with uh a former uh Uh former former uh Prime Minister uh Simone Perez, I think if I pronounce that right. Uh he's he's no longer with us. Uh He has since passed, but uh Yeah, it's coming to fruition for Doctor Evans. It's been a huge dream. He wants American Not just American, but especially American evangelicals, to understand how important it is to practice Genesis 12, 1, 2, and 3, which, yes, Robbie, they are our verses for the date right now for December 1, 2, and 3.
You did that because you have a book coming out, right? That's right. And it's a great Christmas. Yes, if you've enjoyed the date, the word calendar is like, oh my goodness, the book, the date, the word daily devotional. But I digress.
Yes. Yes, you do. Genesis 12, 1.
Well, this is what Mike is basing everything on because we...
Sounds like Abraham is getting involved here. Yes, and now the Lord said to Abram, get out of your country. That's what I felt yesterday. Get out of your country from your family. I felt that yesterday.
From your father's house to a land I will show you. I will make you a great nation. I will bless you. I will make your name great. And.
Mm. And you shall be a blessing. And then he says this. I will bless those. Who bless you?
I will curse him who curses you, and in you. And you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. I mean, these are cornerstone verses. of our Christianity. Trevor Burrus, Jr.: And look at that, there's a word that jumps out that a lot of people don't emphasize.
But it it just jumps off the page at me. is it says he's going to bless families. It didn't say he's going to bless people. No. He said all the families of the earth are going to be blessed.
And really cool if you study that word. you're going to find it's connected to the word Maidservant. And what did Mary say? When the angel Right? Appeared.
Behold your maidservant. And the idea of the maidservant would be the womb, so to speak, that would mold the identity of the upcoming generations that would help teach them to memorize the Torah, the Bible, and all those things that Mary obviously did in the flesh. Yeah, pretty amazing. And and the historical part of this too is, again, you you sharing those those passages as I understand history when Ibram was asked to leave, he was actually leaving what what is known today as modern day Iraq. And and and and his journey towards the promised land that God was uh God was setting the stage for for him.
But uh and he had tremendous faith. Hebrews says that he made the decision to do this not knowing where he was going at that moment. And that's part of us surrendering our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ. We don't know where he's going to be taking us. We didn't know a year ago we'd be here.
And you'd be in Israel twice now in 2025. I can assure you, I never would have dreamed it a million years. Um Especially, and one of the other things we did want to talk about was how safe it is here. Yeah. And I was here in May when literally the bomb fell in Ben Gurin Airport.
There was debris all over the parking lot. And Tammy's like, is this safe? I said completely. It missed. Exactly.
Didn't come anywhere close. That falls from the sky. When we were in the bomb shelter, this was in May. And it's not even... And I have this app on my phone that shows.
When missiles are fired, there isn't a missile fired in weeks. Which is is unbelievable for these people that You know, of course the Iron Dome, you know, took out all things and there was nothing to worry about when I was here in May, really. Um f anyway. And but now It's it's a different it's completely different and and and I couldn't feel more safe from a standpoint of where we're at over.
Well, and we're, you know, and we're going down to the festival, you know, the festival. Right, we're going to the very festival. Down to Nova, you know, where it all happened. And. So we're, you know, we're in God's hands, right?
Covered by the blood, and we're in God's hands.
Now a Christian Karkai always loves to be an ANOVA. Nice. Would that be a Chevy? Yeah. 866-348-7884.
We'll maybe get Bugsman to finish the sentence. 866-342. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Welcome back to Truths Talk Live and to give you an update. Uh how fun.
We will be broadcasting live At 11 o'clock our time, going to 12 o'clock, every night for the rest of this week, tonight, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, as we get a chance to talk. Tomorrow night, we'll be talking about what we experienced in Nova. They got a very formal ceremony. I understand that. Ambassador Huckabee may be there and we may get a visit from um the Prime Minister Netyahoo and All these things, like amazing stuff.
Foreign minister, the yeah, just a lot a lot of dignitaries that we may get an opportunity to. Hear directly from.
So, what are your thoughts? 866-3487-884-866-34TRUS.
So, when we left. Dr. Date the word. He's now he's got this other question on his heart. What is it?
Why is it important? that when you hear this saying That you know the Bible is trying to tell you something completely different. Go ahead, Doc.
Well, we've been watching a lot of protest. A lot of Ivy League schools have had a massive protest against Israel, and they'll say these phrases: from the river to the sea, from the river to the sea. And okay, what does that mean?
Well, the idea is that they want to exterminate the Jews from having anything to do with this land. From the river to the sea, push them all out into the sea. Right. That's why they're going from the Jordan River, if you're looking at. The topography of Israel is from the Jordan River all the way to Mediterranean.
And then, if you push them from the river to sea, then obviously then you've annihilated that. And then, really, when you get down to it, Nikita. It's about hate. At the end of the day, it it is. You're going to get arguments on both sides of the fence, but at the end of the day, it it really is.
And the interesting thing the only problem with that statement is it Doc has the answer to to uh to that. There is a problem with that statement. You know, if even in trying to bring it to a reality, what what what's what's the uh What'd you find there, Doc? Share with our audience. We tie in the Genesis 12, the blessing that God has said, Abraham, I'm giving you this land.
Then you come to Exodus now, and Exodus chapter 23, verse 31. Every listener, you need to know this verse. Exodus 23:31. God says, and I will set your bounds from the Red Sea to the sea, Philista, and from the desert to the river. For I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.
God says this is going to be your land. This is now for Moses for the promised land. You're going back. The land that I gave to Abraham, to Isaac, and Jacob is now, okay, you went down to Egypt, but you're going to go back. And that land from the river to the sea is going to be yours.
And so when they're protesting, saying from the river to the sea, they're going exactly opposite of what God has said.
So one might say, so one might say, you think you're going up against the Israelis. The reality is, your warfare is against God. And it's pretty clear. God promised it. God brought it to them.
And God's not going to take it away from them. But also, you know, there's no doubt in my mind, and they will tell you, in other words, I got lots of friends over here. Rabbis that will tell you. All the earth will worship in Jerusalem's the capital of the world. One day.
And they looking forward to the day where we all can be, right, worshiping God in Jerusalem. I mean, that's the thing. And we're grafted in As every Palestinian could be too. Yep. As they accept Jesus and come into that relationship, you know, the hate gets gone.
And then. You know, obviously we get a chance to worship God in the spirit and truth in Jerusalem. And you know, I sure have experienced that myself this year, and worshiping God in Jerusalem. is something that I cherish. Which we're going to get to do.
We're going to get to go to the whaling wall and pray at the whaling wall, the western wall. And one of the things I'm excited about going to I've never been up to Samaria and we get to do that, the Mount of Olives. Have you been to Shiloh? No, that's what I'm saying. I can't.
Now we're going to see the Red Heifers. Yeah. We're going to see the place where the tabernacle was where Hannah prayed. The very place where Hannah prayed that prayer and You know, where the the whole thing is right there. It's beautiful.
You can stand where the Ark of the Covenant was. I found it very interesting, mentioning the whaling wall, that again, I call him my seatmate as we were flying over. He said that years ago, He was part of praying. The Lord We want to have the whaling wall back. We want to have the whaling wall back.
He says the western wall. They don't like to call it the western wall. No. the Western Wall and we want this back. He says, now I have to pray for The opportunity to find a place to park my car because there's so many people there praying, and it is one of the greatest sights, especially I was telling these guys who've never been before when you see the western wall and all those people praying.
It's a sight to see. It's a sight to see. You know, and Robbie, to your point, I'm reminded of scripture again pretty clear that one day he'll sit upon the throne in Jerusalem. One day the government will be upon his shoulders. And every time I think of that, read that scripture or think of it, or you know, I'm just reminded, like, at that point, there's no more corrupt governments.
Like, if the government's upon his shoulders, all of the corruption and all the governments we see all over around the world will all be history. Yeah, he was here in Jerusalem and they crucified him. He'll be back and he'll be crowned king of kings and lord of lords and oh, what a sight that's going to be.
Well, in fact, we're going to go to the garden tomb, another site. We're going to have a ceremony there at the garden tomb.
So, yeah, it's just it's gonna be quite a week. Quite a week. And again, that if the The gravity gravity of Israel paid the state of Israel, not of the Friends of Israel, not Mike Evans' group, the state of Israel. They paid. For a thousand American pastors, Christian influencers, you know, all the hotel bills, all the tour buses, and they're flowing.
I understand. There are twenty-five Buses.
Sounds about right. Yeah. And like, oh my word. And all the the staff You see tour guides all over the place and trying to get people here, there, find luggage. Oh my goodness.
Super friendly, super helpful. I mean, it's pretty amazing. It's like you were saying, Nikita, we've got to get back. Where's the bucket list? I've always wanted to go to Israel, put it back on your list, start watching churches, pastors are going to be offering trips next year.
Come and be a part of it. Come. And let your Christianity grow. I'm going to bet the farm that the three of us Well, I was actually I know where you're going with this, I think Robbie, but I was bringing my my fir I was going to help host and bring my first tour group in 2020. Most of us all know what happened then, but uh, and so there'll be a time, yeah, I'm gonna personally reschedule uh uh a tour and bring my first tour group over here at some point, some point.
I don't know when, just we were able, by the way, to get one of our last, we were one of the last groups in in 2020 and um And you got out? And we got out and then all of a sudden the world blew up, but we were able to pull that trip. That was what and it snowed while we were here. Right now we got beautiful weather. 2020, we experienced snow in Jerusalem.
And by the way, there's nothing more beautiful than looking at the snow on Mount Hermon, Psalms 133.1. Oh, it's just beautiful.

Mm right. These days. Right that obviously it couldn't be more obvious that all these scriptures are taking place all right Bucksman, we believe you're still there Hey, Buxman, you still there? You are on Truth Talk Live, Bucksman. You got our answer.
Yes, what was the question again? I had to get my phone back online. That's okay.
Well, we're curious about your question about us being here in Israel, and we are getting close to the end, but. Would yes.
So, so this is what I find amazing about Israel is. And I don't know this might be a little controversial question, but what do why do they not allow Messianic Jews in as regular Jews? I've got a friend who's Messianic and He's like Busman, I can't get into Israel. They won't let me in.
So I was just wondering if you guys could do some journalism to find out what's going on with that. And the Jews that do know that Messiah Masha. Yeah. So what's up with that?
Well, I can assure you that the country is loaded. In fact, th the the the guard at this hotel is a Messianic Jew. And you know, Doctor Dave Michael Brown is broadcast I don't know how many times from over here.
So Bucksman, I don't know if something else if he tried to put in f to be evangelistic, they know they don't allow Christian Missionaries, they don't allow that in the country. But as far as coming in, they. They would love. Yeah, I got a Messianic friend here, a Messianic Jew, Akiva Cohen. He supported his messianic.
You're not allowed to bring people to jewelry. Talk about all day long. You're not going to go out in the street and try to convert people on the street. But if they ask you a question or, you know, we we can share our faith all day long. But we're just not go street evangelizing and, you know, that that sort of thing is is is is not uh uh is so somewhat frowned upon, you might say.
Well, I wouldn't have then, yeah, 'cause that's what I do. I wouldn't be able to they would they'd kick me out of Israel. Wow.
Well, you just have to come and just finish the bite. You have to tell him about Date the Word and give him a birthday verse. There you go. From Habakkuk 4. Yeah, no Jesus saying repairs.
Thank you, Bucksmen. I love you. Till next time. Yes. We will be back.
