Caption transcript for Called Together: “Friendly Alliance” (1/8)

• 00:05 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel
• 00:09 is that they might be saved
• 00:12 for there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek
• 00:14 for the same Lord over all
• 00:16 is rich unto all that call upon him.
• 00:36 Hi, I'm David Hart.
• 00:37 Welcome to Zola Levitt Presents.
• 00:39 And I'm Kirsten Hart
• 00:40 We are so glad that you could join us for
• 00:42 this brand new series "Called Together"
• 00:43 where we will discover
• 00:46 the re-connection of the two branches of the olive tree
• 00:49 that Paul talks about in Romans 11.
• 00:51 Right, this whole new series is about
• 00:53 Jewish people and Gentiles, what we are, working together
• 00:58 just like king Solomon and king Hiram in the Old Testament.
• 01:02 They together, a Jewish king and a Gentile king
• 01:06 built the Temple in Jerusalem.
• 01:08 Yes.
• 01:09 Many of you know Eitan Shishkoff.
• 01:11 He will be teaching on location on the Mediterranean Sea.
• 01:15 I love it there.
• 01:16 Right, every program he'll be on.
• 01:17 He's so wonderful.
• 01:18 Also, Chaim Malespin,
• 01:20 if you've seen him on our social media sites,
• 01:22 he will be on our program also.
• 01:23 And he's going to do some great interviews
• 01:26 and bring wonderful insight.
• 01:27 I'm kind of excited about this,
• 01:29 we get to have a Hebrew lesson
• 01:30 every week of this series.
• 01:32 Stay with us.
• 01:33 Shalom !
• 01:39 The waters of the Haifa Bay are really a perfect backdrop
• 01:42 for the story of two kings in the Bible who demonstrate
• 01:47 the amazing relationship to which God has called us as Jews and Gentiles.
• 01:52 When I discovered this story I was really quite astounded
• 01:57 to find the degree of cooperation that existed between King Solomon and King Hiram.
• 02:04 As a matter of fact, it was right along this bay.
• 02:07 These waters are where Hiram brought cedar trees from Lebanon
• 02:12 all the way to Jerusalem to help build the Temple.
• 02:16 This is the story that's found in I Kings 5.
• 02:18 And it starts with an amazing statement because
• 02:22 the statement is that King Hiram always loved David.
• 02:28 Now what's odd about that statement is that here's
• 02:31 Hiram, he's a Gentile king from up the coast,
• 02:35 The kingdom was called "Tyre" in today's Lebanon.
• 02:39 And David was of course the Jewish king of Israel.
• 02:42 So how did this friendship come about?
• 02:46 It happened that Hiram built David's house.
• 02:50 I mean, this is sort of the way that you get and epic.
• 02:53 So you flash back to the history before Solomon, David's father.
• 02:58 Hiram, this Gentile king builds him a house.
• 03:01 They have this great friendship.
• 03:04 David passes on and he leaves Solomon with the task of building the Temple.
• 03:08 Solomon goes, well I need some workers who know what they're doing,
• 03:12 guys that can lay stone.
• 03:14 I need some cedar trees.
• 03:16 We don't have them exactly here in Israel.
• 03:18 You know what?
• 03:19 I'm gonna write Hiram.
• 03:20 I remember that he was my Dad's friend.
• 03:23 Solomon writes Hiram.
• 03:24 This whole story is in I Kings, Chapter 5.
• 03:27 He writes to Hiram and he says,
• 03:29 Listen, my Dad had blood on his hands.
• 03:33 God said, it's not for you to build this Temple.
• 03:35 And he passed that assignment on to me his son.
• 03:39 Now Hiram, I'm reaching out to you
• 03:42 and I'm asking you to help me build the Temple in Jerusalem.
• 03:46 Friends, this was the first Temple, the original Temple.
• 03:50 And historians tend to call it Solomon's Temple
• 03:53 but really, if you want to know the truth
• 03:55 it was the Temple of Solomon and Hiram
• 03:58 because Solomon could have done it without this Gentile king.
• 04:01 So you've got a Jewish king and you've a Gentile king
• 04:04 and together they are building the Temple
• 04:07 which was ultimately the place where the Glory of God came,
• 04:11 3 chapters later when it was dedicated.
• 04:14 I want to explore this story with you
• 04:16 because it's actually the paradigm for the
• 04:20 book that speaks of the Gentiles role in the end times
• 04:25 in the salvation of Israel.
• 04:28 I want to share this with you from my heart.
• 04:30 Let's go.
• 04:47 I don't know about you Kirsten but I really had no idea
• 04:50 that a Gentile, Hiram helped build the Temple.
• 04:53 I didn't either, actually.
• 04:54 But that's what we should be doing now.
• 04:57 And we'll have some more teaching from Eitan in just a moment.
• 04:59 But here's Chaim Malespin with Yaakov Damkani
• 05:03 about the need for Jews and Christians to work together.
• 05:12 We're standing here in Tel Aviv
• 05:13 Which is really the center of this beautiful country
• 05:15 right along the shores of the Mediterranean.
• 05:17 This city is booming.
• 05:18 They are building every day.
• 05:19 In fact, we're standing in the Gilgal Hotel
• 05:21 built by our dear friend and owned by our dear friend
• 05:24 Yaacov (Jacob) Damkani.
• 05:26 Now, you have Christians coming to stay here from all over the world.
• 05:28 Could you unpack for me God's heart
• 05:31 for the Jewish people wherever they are
• 05:33 and here in this Land.
• 05:34 What is God's heart for the Jewish people?
• 05:37 Well God used the Jewish people to
• 05:39 bring the Gospel to the end of the earth.
• 05:41 Paul, Peter, James, John- they're all Jews.
• 05:44 And he really had Israel, the Jewish people
• 05:47 stumble over their own promised New Covenant,
• 05:49 stumble over their own promised Messiah
• 05:52 to bring the Gospel to the Gentiles.
• 05:55 All that is in that great plan of God
• 05:58 to make use of the Gentiles to bring it back to the Jews
• 06:02 so the mercy of God will be upon all men and no one should boast.
• 06:06 Wherever there are Jews we believers, Christians,
• 06:10 should really care for them
• 06:11 and reach out to them
• 06:13 and really bring them the Gospel
• 06:14 for the hour is really at hand for the Kingdom of God to come.
• 06:18 And really all of it has to do with the Jewish people.
• 06:21 So not only coming to Israel and reaching out to the Jews
• 06:24 but into your own neighborhood
• 06:26 Jews really need to hear about Jesus the Jew
• 06:29 and re-evaluate him and really understand
• 06:33 that he and he only can make them Jew in the heart.
• 06:39 "Spiritual Jew" is believing in Jesus.
• 06:42 Be part of the unraveling of the mystery.
• 06:44 Amen.
• 06:47 David - Now let's go back to Haifa for more teaching from Eitan.
• 06:51 The phenomenon of the relationship
• 06:53 between King Hiram and King Solomon is this,
• 06:56 that they were not just political allies,
• 06:59 they didn't enter in some military alliance
• 07:01 but they were friends.
• 07:04 Through Solomon's father David both sides, both Hiram and Solomon
• 07:08 had this really love relationship with David.
• 07:12 And David represents Yeshua because Yeshua's the Son of David.
• 07:15 And that's really what brings this together isn't it?
• 07:18 as Jewish and Gentile disciples is our mutual love for our Messiah, our Lord.
• 07:24 I want to explore this story a bit more and
• 07:27 I want to take us through 4 steps of the relationship
• 07:31 that brought about the building of the Temple
• 07:34 to become the landing strip for the Glory of God.
• 07:37 First, as I said, they were friends.
• 07:39 Their building the Temple was based on
• 07:43 their friendship, their trust for each other.
• 07:45 Second, there was an issue of timing
• 07:47 because Solomon said that his father was not able to build the Temple
• 07:51 because of being a man of war and
• 07:53 David had left Solomon with that task.
• 07:55 And now there was a time of peace.
• 07:57 Interestingly, the name "Solomon", which is
• 08:00 " Shlomo " in Hebrew means "His Peace", " Shalom Shiloh ".
• 08:04 So it's really beautiful the way that his Hebrew
• 08:09 name reflects the very era in which he was in charge.
• 08:12 The next stage was vision.
• 08:15 Solomon had vision.
• 08:16 He had a picture, an image of the Temple
• 08:20 as being a place for God to dwell.
• 08:23 A place where the priests could perform their sacrifices.
• 08:26 And then finally there was the issue of strategy.
• 08:29 And that's where Hiram came in
• 08:30 because Solomon needed the building materials
• 08:33 and he needed the expert stonemasons.
• 08:35 So it all came together into one piece of
• 08:40 friendship, timing vision and strategy.
• 08:44 Next we see that at the dedication of the Temple
• 08:48 there is such a blessing from God.
• 08:51 Really in a sense God is saying,
• 08:53 I see the partnership of this Jewish king and Gentile king
• 08:58 and I'm all over this.
• 09:00 This is what I'm about.
• 09:02 This is what I want to bring about in the earth.
• 09:05 And so we read of this Temple dedication the following words,
• 09:24 This was God's signifying I am in favor of a House
• 09:30 that is built for me on the earth in Israel
• 09:33 in which both the Jewish followers,
• 09:37 the Jewish worshipers and the Gentile worshipers
• 09:41 are coming together to host my Presence.
• 09:45 This is what God has called us to do together,
• 09:47 to host His Presence now in restored Israel.
• 09:53 David - Now to Jerusalem and our Hebrew Lesson with Diana.
• 09:57 Shalom
• 09:58 So here are a few words that you can use
• 10:00 in your personal prayer with the Lord.
• 10:03 abba Adonai
• 10:04 Barukh Attah Adonai
• 10:06 " abba " means "father"
• 10:09 " Adonai " - "My Lord"
• 10:11 And when you say " Barukh Attah Adonai "
• 10:14 it is "Blessed be your Name my Lord"
• 10:19 You can pray this over your family.
• 10:22 You can pray this over your children,
• 10:24 in your situations.
• 10:26 Bless the Lord.
• 10:28 " Barukh Attah Adonai "
• 10:30 "Blessed be your Name my Lord"
• 10:34 Thank you Diana.
• 10:35 She makes it sound so easy to learn Hebrew.
• 10:38 I think we're doing pretty well
• 10:40 with learning our Hebrew.
• 10:41 We're starters but we're going to work hard.
• 10:43 And she's great!
• 10:44 Thank you Diana.
• 10:45 Let's see how we do with what she taught us today.
• 10:47 You ready?
• 10:48 Okay, first word is
• 10:49 " Barukh "
• 10:50 " Barukh "
• 10:51 is "Blessed"
• 10:52 " abba " I like that
• 10:54 "father"
• 10:55 " Adonai "
• 10:56 I love that name.
• 10:57 "My Lord"
• 10:59 So let's put it together.
• 11:01 " Barukh Attah Adonai " means
• 11:05 " Blessed be your Name my Lord. "
• 11:08 Yes
• 11:09 We love our Hebrew lessons.
• 11:10 We'll be right back.
• 11:14 Our Resource this week...
• 11:15 the series "Times of the Signs" on DVD
• 11:18 Myles and Katharine Weiss

• 11:21 troubling prophetic signs of our day
• 11:24 and live in growing expectation
• 11:25 of our Messiah's return.
• 11:27 In this 8 program series
• 11:29 topics include
• 11:35 and more.
• 11:37 Contact us for the DVD Series
• 11:38 "Times of the Signs"
• 11:43 We live in a topsy turvy world
• 11:45 where news events are sometimes twisted
• 11:47 often leading to untruth.
• 11:50 Here at Zola Levitt Presents
• 11:52 we believe it's important to tell the truth
• 11:54 of God's Word - the Bible.
• 11:56 We believe it should be proclaimed
• 11:58 to Israel and the Nations.
• 12:00 If you believe the same way
• 12:02 please consider us in your monthly giving support.
• 12:05 Thank you.
• 12:13 Kirsten - For many a trip to the Holy Land is the dream of a lifetime.
• 12:17 The Bible truly comes alive as you see the sites
• 12:21 where so many biblical events happened,
• 12:23 where the teaching is always from a
• 12:25 Messianic perspective.
• 12:27 Come on a Zola Tour in the spring
• 12:29 to see Israel and Petra
• 12:31 or in the fall to add a cruise to Greece and Ephesus.
• 12:35 See the land of the Bible for yourself.
• 12:38 Contact us to reserve your Dream of a Lifetime.
• 12:44 We would love for you to join us
• 12:45 on a Zola Levitt tour.
• 12:47 We're taking tours
• 12:48 both in the Fall and the Spring.
• 12:50 And I'm so excited.
• 12:52 We're going to Israel, Petra
• 12:54 and also a Greek Cruise.
• 12:56 And we've been asked to sing
• 12:57 in many of these locations and
• 12:59 you can join us for that.
• 13:01 We'll be leading worship on all of the tours
• 13:03 plus bringing back many of Zola's wonderful songs.
• 13:06 We'll be able to sing them
• 13:08 on location in all these spots.
• 13:10 If your our Facebook Friend
• 13:12 you will recognize Chaim Malespin.
• 13:14 He has added many wonderful videos to our page.
• 13:17 And he's coming up.
• 13:18 Yes, we caught up with Chaim this past spring.
• 13:26 I love that smell.
• 13:27 That's the smell of Springtime here in Israel
• 13:30 right in the mountains of Zion here in Jerusalem.
• 13:33 And you know, today by the way
• 13:34 marks the very first day of the month of Aviv
• 13:36 the biblical month when we start our year,
• 13:38 when the Passover happened.
• 13:40 It's also known as "Nisan".
• 13:42 And you know, it's just glorious.
• 13:43 I can only think of King David
• 13:45 walking over here in the mountains of Zion
• 13:46 and writing Psalms Chapter 9
• 13:49 where he says,
• 13:59 And I'm just seeing that God is bringing together Jew and Gentile
• 14:03 in this Romans 11 olive tree.
• 14:06 And we're seeing it blossom.
• 14:07 We're seeing the fruit.
• 14:08 And we're smelling the fragrance.
• 14:10 Let's continue to move forward in his footsteps.
• 14:23 Isaiah 35 verse 1 says that the desert
• 14:26 will rejoice and blossom as the rose.
• 14:28 And that's exactly what we're seeing
• 14:29 here in the Galilee with these very roses.
• 14:31 And we're in the Galilee with Sheree.
• 14:34 Sheree, how did you come to get God's heart for
• 14:38 the restoration for the people of Israel.
• 14:40 Well it was back in 1995.
• 14:43 My husband and I were attending Christ for the Nations.
• 14:45 And they would have a whole week to bless Israel.
• 14:49 And it was called "God Bless Israel Week".
• 14:52 And they would have missionaries come.
• 14:55 They would have teachers that would even teach " Shema Yisrael "
• 14:59 And they would have music and dancing.
• 15:01 And it really put a love in my heart for God's people.
• 15:04 And I also had the question,
• 15:09 What is my part to help the Israeli people come back to their nation?
• 15:15 And I want to be used and serve in the capacity where God would have me.
• 15:21 And I believe its important for Christian people
• 15:24 to help the Israeli people get back to their nation.
• 15:28 It warms my heart as a Jewish person
• 15:30 that's returned to see Christians
• 15:32 loving the Jewish People in such a practical way.
• 15:36 Thank you.
• 15:43 This is looking amazing!
• 15:45 Yes
• 15:46 You're finishing up this bed.
• 15:47 What is this for?
• 15:48 Why are you building this?
• 15:50 Well, they're for the immigrants that come in.
• 15:53 And they come in and we make a bed
• 15:56 for them to lie down
• 15:57 and of course be at home.
• 15:59 And this is the beginnings of how we make it
• 16:01 comfortable for them to come here to Israel.
• 16:03 Well, what's your name,
• 16:04 where are you from,
• 16:06 and what caused you to have such a love
• 16:07 for God's purposes in the Galilee and Israel in general?
• 16:10 Well, my name is John Garcia
• 16:11 and I'm from Dallas, Texas.
• 16:13 And you know, I've read the Scripture from where it says
• 16:17 to love the Lord your God ...
• 16:19 the first commandment,
• 16:20 with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.
• 16:22 And I love the Lord
• 16:23 and so I felt like this was one way to express my love to Him
• 16:27 to be able to minister and serve the Jewish people.
• 16:31 As an Israeli, as a Jewish person
• 16:33 I can tell you the Israelis don't always understand why
• 16:36 Christians want to love them.
• 16:37 But when they see practical application like this,
• 16:40 this touches their hearts in such a way that can't even be expressed.
• 16:45 Thank you so much John.
• 16:49 David Hart - Now let's go back to Eitan
• 16:51 as he wraps up this week's teaching.
• 16:53 What's interesting to me about this Jewish-Gentile partnership over history
• 16:58 is that it wasn't just Solomon and Hiram.
• 17:01 We see time and again in the Hebrew Scriptures
• 17:04 how God paired a Jewish visionary with someone on the Gentile side who
• 17:10 had authority and who had resources.
• 17:12 Let's just go way back in history for a moment and think about Joseph.
• 17:17 Now, when Joseph had become a leadership figure in Egypt
• 17:22 he was really called into that position by Pharaoh.
• 17:27 And what happened was that the famine at that time
• 17:30 was taking a great toll across the earth.
• 17:34 Joseph actually was a savior of the world of that time.
• 17:39 Because it was through Joseph's wisdom that people were coming from
• 17:43 all the countries of the world including
• 17:46 Jacob and his sons to receive food.
• 17:49 What's further interesting is that of course
• 17:51 they didn't recognize Joseph because he looked like an Egyptian.
• 17:55 That's an amazing parallel with today.
• 17:57 Because today Jesus-Yeshua looks like a Christian,
• 18:01 maybe a Norwegian or an Italian.
• 18:04 He doesn't look to the Jewish people like an Israeli, like one of us.
• 18:07 but of course, in fact, He is
• 18:09 just as Joseph was in those days.
• 18:12 But just as Joseph said to his brothers later on,
• 18:15 What you meant for evil God has used for good.
• 18:18 Joseph was placed there by God.
• 18:21 My question is, Who set the table for the sons of Jacob to have that feast
• 18:26 to be able to recover the relationship with Joseph?
• 18:30 And now, if we think about Jesus,
• 18:32 who will make it possible for His Jewish brothers
• 18:35 to come back into relationship?
• 18:37 I maintain that it was the Egyptians who set the table,
• 18:41 who provided the feast
• 18:43 just as today it will be the Gentile believers, the true Christians of the world
• 18:48 who will enable the Jewish people again to discover Yeshua.
• 18:52 That's not the only story.
• 18:53 There's also the time of Nehemiah.
• 18:56 Nehemiah was a visionary.
• 18:58 He was a person who came with a breakthrough vision for restoration,
• 19:03 a time when Jerusalem was broken down.
• 19:06 And what did he do?
• 19:08 He turned to the king after praying,
• 19:10 He turned to King Artaxerxes and he said,
• 19:13 I need support, I need backing, I need materials
• 19:17 because my country lies in ruins.
• 19:20 I want to see the restoration of my nation and of the City of Jerusalem.
• 19:24 And he was granted it.
• 19:26 The Gentile king said go for it, here, I'll send a troop with you
• 19:32 and I'll give you wagons with supplies.
• 19:35 We know the rest of the story
• 19:37 that in 52 days Nehemiah with those who were left in the Land
• 19:41 restored the walls all around Jerusalem
• 19:45 and the city and the nation came back into life.
• 19:48 Beloved, that's exactly what God is doing today.
• 19:52 He is following the same pattern that He's showed
• 19:54 again and again in the Hebrew Scriptures,
• 19:57 that God will put together the Jewish visionaries
• 20:01 and those of Gentile worshippers of God
• 20:05 to restore Israel.
• 20:07 Thank you for joining us in this incredible process.
• 20:11 It is prophetic and it is historic.
• 20:16 Our promise to you every week is to
• 20:19 bring you the best Messianic teaching.
• 20:21 And Eitan Shishkoff is one of those.
• 20:23 And also today Kirsten and I are so excited to
• 20:26 have the best of the best of the best.
• 20:30 And you folks know who this is...
• 20:32 Dr. Jeffrey Seif.
• 20:33 Well flattery will get you everywhere.
• 20:35 It's good to see you.
• 20:36 And hello to all of you!
• 20:38 We're honored to have you with us.
• 20:39 How long has it been since you've been on this stage?
• 20:43 About 5 or 6 years.
• 20:45 I've been out for a bit.
• 20:46 Well, and you're a newlywed.
• 20:47 Newlywed - yes.
• 20:49 My first wife, God Bless, went to be with the Lord.
• 20:51 She got a promotion.
• 20:53 And the Lord graced me with a woman who was merciful toward me, Barrie.
• 20:57 Well, we're thrilled to meet you.
• 21:00 You're...shall I say it?
• 21:01 This is horrible to say almost,
• 21:03 but royalty with all the viewers
• 21:05 Oh,girl, stop it!
• 21:07 of Zola Levitt Presents.
• 21:09 Yeeeyah...maybe a big fish in a very little pond
• 21:11 but I'm not royalty
• 21:12 but you're sweet.
• 21:13 But we're honored to work with you.
• 21:15 We're excited that this table's
• 21:17 not a round table kind of feel
• 21:19 to take what Eitan taught us
• 21:21 and to kind of chew on it.
• 21:24 And let's just talk together
• 21:26 and with all of you.
• 21:28 Here's the way I look at it.
• 21:30 Eitan is one of the best kitties in the Messianic Jewish litter.
• 21:33 I mean, he is very passionate and very articulate.
• 21:36 And he raised a good point and he drew
• 21:40 some good stuff as he always does.
• 21:42 But it is fascinating that Hiram...
• 21:45 And I never thought of it until I considered him more.
• 21:49 I'm learning all the time.
• 21:50 So are we, so are we!
• 21:52 You know I only have time for learners not experts.
• 21:55 The older I get the more I know I don't know.
• 21:58 I mean I knew it but he developed the point
• 22:01 if you look at the Temple
• 22:03 that sacred worship space
• 22:05 how an individual of non-Jewish extract
• 22:08 contributed so significantly to it.
• 22:10 And that really is and extremely important point.
• 22:15 I don't think we discussed that.
• 22:17 I don't think we knew about that.
• 22:18 We weren't taught that.
• 22:20 Right, I don't think Christian churches,
• 22:22 and that's our background,
• 22:24 so we're like almost as Gentile as can be
• 22:27 that we realize how deep this friendship goes back
• 22:32 and how vital it is.
• 22:33 Everyone lives in separate space.
• 22:36 In the world today there's the Jewish world over here
• 22:38 and the Christian world,
• 22:40 a big chasm between the two.
• 22:42 But that chasm doesn't exist in this world.
• 22:45 There's a lot more comradery.
• 22:50 It's fascinating that Hiram was kindly disposed.
• 22:53 When you think that the House of God
• 22:56 is built with the "pride of Lebanon"
• 22:59 Even in the Lebanese flag it has the tree.
• 23:02 The "cedars of Lebanon".
• 23:04 And it not only was the pride but it is the pride.
• 23:08 And that went in to the mix.
• 23:10 That speaks so well to not just Eitan's point but others
• 23:17 About how it's God's Kingdom.
• 23:19 Its an add mixture of different peoples.
• 23:21 Its not a "Jew thing" its a "New thing".
• 23:23 Its not a "Me thing" its a "We thing".
• 23:26 And that is so central to what I'm all about
• 23:29 and what you're all about
• 23:30 and what this program is about
• 23:31 and what our viewers are all about.
• 23:33 Well how did we get to this place?
• 23:36 How did we get to "here are the Jewish people",
• 23:38 "here are the Christian people"?
• 23:40 How...what happened?
• 23:41 Well girl, ain't it like the devil you know?
• 23:45 I mean its so in division.
• 23:48 I mean its Adam and Eve kinda got jammed up with kinda dishonesty and sin.
• 23:54 And their kids got jammed up, one killed the other.
• 23:56 And then they're speaking different languages at Babel.
• 23:59 It's always...
• 24:00 It started at the beginning.
• 24:02 It really did, yeah.
• 24:04 It really did.
• 24:05 Which is so sad isn't it?
• 24:06 Because the Temple,
• 24:08 the Holy of Holy place where God Himself came down.
• 24:12 The footstool was the union between both.
• 24:17 And now we just keep building wall-wall-wall-wall
• 24:19 and then pushing it away.
• 24:21 How do we bring that together?
• 24:22 And breaking down the wall-wall
• 24:24 is fundamentally what it means to be Christian.
• 24:26 I mean that's the Book of Ephesians 101.
• 24:28 Jesus broke down the dividing wall of hostility
• 24:32 and made the two one.
• 24:34 So there really is a unification motif.
• 24:37 Ronald Reagan said "Bring down the wall!" in a previous generation.
• 24:41 But ain't it like the Devil to raise walls between husbands and wives,
• 24:45 between Jews and Gentiles,
• 24:47 between Arabs and Jews,
• 24:50 between different Christians?
• 24:52 But I think me, we, our viewers here
• 24:55 they want to get past the wall,
• 24:57 they want to have a ball by rolling the Gospel out
• 25:01 to the world and to testify to a kind of oneness.
• 25:03 Give us one step.
• 25:05 Give us just one step to breaking down that wall.
• 25:08 The quickest, easiest.
• 25:10 Realizing that the wall's a sin, for openers.
• 25:12 That's good.
• 25:13 Thank you Dr. Seif.
• 25:15 We're going to hear so more from you next week.
• 25:17 But right now we're going to go to one of Zola's songs.

• 26:46 And love these songs.
• 26:48 We do and we had such a great time with Dr. Seif.
• 26:51 That went way too quick!
• 26:53 Oh my goodness!
• 26:55 I think we could have sat here for a couple hours
• 26:57 but you all wouldn't have stayed with us probably.
• 26:59 What a great point that Dr. Seif said.
• 27:02 He said to make sure that we know
• 27:04 that wall, that division between
• 27:06 the Jewish people and the Christian Church is sin.
• 27:10 And we need to walk away from that.
• 27:12 Powerful.
• 27:12 It is powerful.
• 27:13 Powerful message.
• 27:14 And our prayer for you today is
• 27:15 Sha'alu Shalom Yerushalayim
• 27:17 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
