Caption transcript for Roadmap to Armageddon: “Jacob’s Trouble” (8/10)

• 00:00 ♪♪♪
• 00:07 Caleb Colson: Satan thought that Hitler was the one.
• 00:09 He fulfilled all the requirements to become
• 00:11 the Beast.
• 00:13 Joshua Colson: Our God is so good that he utilized these
• 00:16 horrors to bring the Israelites out of diaspora and back into
• 00:22 Israel again.
• 00:23 Caleb: Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it.
• 00:27 And it is the time of Jacob, Yaakov's trouble,
• 00:31 but he shall be saved out of it.
• 00:33 ♪♪♪
• 00:40 David Hart: Thank you so much for joining us today.
• 00:42 And today's subject, I wish we didn't have to talk about, but
• 00:45 we really need to talk about suffering.
• 00:47 Kirsten Hart: I kind of would like to take a break
• 00:49 on this one.
• 00:50 Can I just leave?
• 00:51 Because I like good news, but the harsh news is just harsh to
• 00:54 hear, isn't it?
• 00:55 Joshua: The eighth stop is the most somber.
• 00:57 The reminding of all of the devastation and the pain that
• 01:00 the Jewish people have gone through, and then the reminder
• 01:03 of the worst being yet to come with the time of
• 01:05 Jacob's trouble.
• 01:06 Revelation 13:10 says, "If anyone is meant for captivity,
• 01:10 to captivity he goes.
• 01:11 If anyone is to be killed by the sword, by the sword he must
• 01:13 be killed.
• 01:15 Here's the perseverance and faith of the kedoshim."
• 01:18 Caleb: The saints have to suffer.
• 01:19 Those who believe upon Yeshua during the tribulation, the
• 01:22 greatest persecution, just like the Jewish people, but all the
• 01:25 while the world will be suffering under the wrath and
• 01:27 plagues that Adonai pours out upon the world.
• 01:30 David: Right now we take you to Israel for the guys's teaching.
• 01:32 Let's go there now.
• 01:37 Joshua: Revelation 17:8, "The beast that you saw was, and is
• 01:41 not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go
• 01:44 to perdition.
• 01:45 And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not
• 01:48 written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world,
• 01:51 when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is."
• 01:56 Caleb: Guys, that beast, the beast, the Antichrist, if you
• 01:59 will, is gonna bring about such great persecution, murdering not
• 02:03 just the saints of God, but God's chosen people, the Jews.
• 02:07 This will be the greatest persecution, the greatest
• 02:09 holocaust of humanity since the beginning of time.
• 02:13 Joshua: Personally, our family knows about the Holocaust and
• 02:17 about persecution.
• 02:18 My mother's side of our family are descendants from Austria and
• 02:21 from Germany, and most of them lost their lives in
• 02:23 the Holocaust.
• 02:25 Caleb: That's right, we need to go tell that story.
• 02:27 Come along with us.
• 02:32 Joshua: Revelation 13:7 and 8, "It was granted to him
• 02:36 [the Beast]
• 02:37 to make war with the saints and to overcome them.
• 02:40 An authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.
• 02:44 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have
• 02:47 not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the
• 02:51 foundation of the world."
• 02:53 Joshua: Verses 9 and 10, guys, it talks about the saints.
• 02:55 Now, who are we talking about in this verse?
• 02:57 Well, verses 9 and 10 talks about the saints who did not
• 03:01 accept Yeshua before the rapture.
• 03:03 That means they don't have the indwelling in the Holy Spirit.
• 03:05 And that means that what they have to do is they have to
• 03:07 persevere through this persecution through the end and
• 03:09 not give up.
• 03:10 The prophets actually spoke two times more about the
• 03:12 tribulation, about the terrible day of the Lord, than they ever
• 03:15 prophesied about the first coming.
• 03:17 Caleb: That's right, and Jeremiah 30, verse 7
• 03:19 says, "Alas!
• 03:21 For that day is great, meaning terrible, paramount, unequaled,
• 03:25 so that none is like it, and it is the time of Jacob, Yaakov's
• 03:30 trouble, but he shall be saved out of it."
• 03:32 Guys, Jacob, the whole house of Israel will be saved at the end
• 03:36 of the great tribulation, but after two thirds perish, that
• 03:40 is astronomical.
• 03:41 It says that in Zechariah 13:8 through 9. Guys, to understand
• 03:45 the severity of this suffering and persecution, we gotta look
• 03:49 back to history at the closest related comparison.
• 03:52 I think it's the Holocaust, Josh.
• 03:55 Joshua: All right, well, we're here, brother.
• 03:57 Caleb: Yad Vashem.
• 03:58 Joshua: Yad Vashem.
• 04:00 Caleb: Daniel 7:25, "He [the Beast]
• 04:03 shall speak pompous words against the Most High, shall
• 04:07 persecute the saints of the Most High, and shall intend to change
• 04:10 the times [the modem]
• 04:12 and law.
• 04:13 Then the saints shall be given into his hand for a time and
• 04:15 times and half a time, [3 and 1/2 years.]"
• 04:22 Caleb: We're here at Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem.
• 04:26 It's a memorial to the 6.5 million Jews that were killed by
• 04:29 Hitler's Antichrist regime during World War II.
• 04:33 Satan thought that Hitler was the one.
• 04:36 He fulfilled all the requirements to become
• 04:38 the Beast.
• 04:39 He thought through Hitler he could stop the seven feasts, the
• 04:43 moedim, and Shabbat.
• 04:44 He could stop Torah.
• 04:46 He could kill all God's chosen people.
• 04:48 Joshua: Yet God stopped his plan.
• 04:50 It was not the prophetic time.
• 04:53 And our God is so good that he utilized these horrors to bring
• 04:59 the Israelites out of diaspora and back into Israel again,
• 05:03 fulfilling Ezekiel 37's dry bones prophecy.
• 05:09 Joshua: Revelation 2:13, "I know your works, and where you dwell,
• 05:13 where Satan's throne is.
• 05:15 You hold fast to My name, and did not deny my faith even in
• 05:18 the days in which Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was killed
• 05:22 among you, where Satan dwells."
• 05:25 Caleb: Satan's throne, the seat of Satan as some other
• 05:28 translations put it.
• 05:29 What is Yeshua referring to when he gives this prophetic word to
• 05:33 the church of Pergamum?
• 05:34 You know, in times past in the city of Pergamum, there was a
• 05:37 temple to Zeus, and the altar there was referred to as Zeus's
• 05:41 throne by unbelievers.
• 05:44 They would call it Satan's throne, because they knew that
• 05:46 Zeus and Satan were synonymous with one another.
• 05:49 And there was a bronze bull that adorned the top of this altar,
• 05:53 and it was here where Antipas was made a martyr, because they
• 05:56 would perform sacrifices.
• 05:57 He was killed for being a Christian.
• 05:59 Joshua: You know, ironically enough, that same altar was
• 06:01 being constructed shortly after the time period that Antiochus
• 06:04 Epiphany IV committed the first abomination of desolation in
• 06:08 167 BC.
• 06:10 This mirrored that idol of Zeus that was erected in the Temple
• 06:14 in Jerusalem, only on a much larger scale.
• 06:27 Caleb: It's a moving sight.
• 06:29 People come through the Holocaust Museum, and this is
• 06:31 the conclusion, to see the life that is at the end of the
• 06:35 tunnel, the literal light at the end of the tunnel.
• 06:37 Well, back to our story, guys.
• 06:39 In the late 1800s German archaeologists and engineers
• 06:42 discovered the ruins of that Pergamum altar in the city of
• 06:45 Pergamum, and they took it apart and they brought it back
• 06:48 to Germany.
• 06:50 They created this whole museum around it, and they rebuilt
• 06:52 the ruins.
• 06:54 Well, Albert Speer, Hitler's right-hand man, would go to that
• 06:57 museum, and he would stare at those ruins, and he was drawn to
• 06:59 the power he believed in those ruins.
• 07:01 So, he designed the Zeppelin Tribune in Nuremberg.
• 07:05 He designed it to look just like that Pergamum altar.
• 07:08 And from there, Hitler posted these Nazi rallies with hundreds
• 07:12 of thousands of Nazis in attendance.
• 07:14 And from that podium, Hitler announced his Final Solution for
• 07:18 the Jewish people.
• 07:19 Joshua: Many Bible prophecy experts believe that the Beast
• 07:22 might utilize this throne.
• 07:24 In fact, that throne has been mobile many times in history.
• 07:27 In fact, when we refer to the prophecies of Antiochus
• 07:31 Epiphanes in Daniel 11, It may be the Pergamum altar that
• 07:34 he uses.
• 07:35 It may be that they desecrate the brazen altar and wrap this
• 07:38 throne completely around it.
• 07:41 Caleb: Either way, it's a foreshadowing of the darkness
• 07:43 to come.
• 07:44 Daniel Joshua: 11:32 through 35, "But the people who know their
• 07:48 God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.
• 07:51 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many:
• 07:55 yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by
• 07:58 captivity and plundering.
• 07:59 Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help: but
• 08:01 many shall join with them by intrigue.
• 08:03 And some of those of understanding shall fall, to
• 08:06 refine them, to purify them, and to make them white, until the
• 08:10 time of the end: because it is still for the appointed time."
• 08:13 Joshua: Behind us you can see a beautiful monument to those Jews
• 08:17 who stood and fought against Hitler and lost their lives
• 08:20 during World War II.
• 08:21 Caleb: I believe it's significant because of the
• 08:23 scripture that we just read in Daniel.
• 08:26 It's a parallel prophecy, guys.
• 08:28 It's referring to the Jews who fought Antiochus Epiphanes
• 08:31 during that time of captivity, but it also parallels a future
• 08:37 battle, if you will, of the saints who fight against the
• 08:39 Beast during the tribulation.
• 08:42 You see, in an ironic twist of fate, during the first three and
• 08:45 a half years of the tribulation, the Jews are not
• 08:47 being persecuted.
• 08:49 They're worshipping Elohim in the Beit HaMikdash, the Temple
• 08:52 in Jerusalem.
• 08:53 Joshua: This huge contingent of saints that he just spoke about
• 08:58 is made up of those counterfeit Christians before the Rapture,
• 09:03 those who had said they believed in Yeshua, but had not fully
• 09:06 committed their heart.
• 09:08 At this point in time they will have one final opportunity.
• 09:12 They will either choose Yeshua and give their life for him, or
• 09:17 they will fight for the Beast and lose it forever.
• 09:19 Caleb: It appears that most of these saints actually go to war
• 09:22 with the Beast in their own way.
• 09:24 They go around the world preaching the gospel of Yeshua,
• 09:27 and this is impressive, I would say, because the Holy Spirit is
• 09:30 removed from the earth.
• 09:32 He's the restrainer that Paul talks about in 2 Thessalonians
• 09:35 2:6 through 8 that was empowering man.
• 09:38 But just like with the patriarchs of old, the Spirit of
• 09:41 the Lord would come upon like Samson, and he would be endued
• 09:44 with great strength.
• 09:45 They carry out great exploits for Yeshua.
• 09:48 But near the end of the tribulation, most of them
• 09:50 are beheaded.
• 09:52 Revelation 6 says, "When he opened the fifth seal, I saw
• 09:55 under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the
• 09:58 word of God and for the testimony which they held.
• 10:01 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, 'How long, O
• 10:03 Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on
• 10:06 those who dwell on the earth?'
• 10:08 Then a white robe was given to each of them: and it was said to
• 10:11 them that they should rest a little while longer, until both
• 10:14 the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who
• 10:17 would be killed as they were, was completed."
• 10:21 speaker: Here come the tourists.
• 10:22 Caleb: We're going to the Mount of Olives to look at
• 10:24 Mount of Olives-y things.
• 10:25 Little do they know, here at this man's home is the secret
• 10:28 entrance to the Tomb of the Prophets.
• 10:30 He owns this, like, in his backyard.
• 10:31 He doesn't let anybody know unless you got the monies
• 10:33 to do so.
• 10:35 It's pretty cool. We can't tell them.
• 10:37 Joshua: Do we have the monies?
• 10:38 Caleb: We have the monies.
• 10:40 Joshua: Yes.
• 10:41 ♪♪♪
• 10:49 Caleb: We're here at the Tomb of the Prophets, the traditional
• 10:51 location believed to be the final resting place of such
• 10:55 prophets as Zechariah, Haggai, and Malachi.
• 10:58 You know, the Lord's prophets have endured more persecution
• 11:00 and suffering than any other people in history, and they
• 11:04 typically leave this earth in a very gruesome fashion, by
• 11:06 being murdered.
• 11:07 Well, throughout history, Josh, the Jewish people have suffered
• 11:11 persecution, and they've had to hide out in caves such as this
• 11:14 from the Romans, the Greeks, the Babylonians.
• 11:18 Let's take a look inside.
• 11:22 Joshua: This is what I picture when I picture a tomb.
• 11:24 ♪♪♪
• 11:30 Joshua: According to tradition, one of these burial niches is
• 11:34 the resting place of the prophet Zechariah.
• 11:37 The book of Zechariah parallels the book of Revelation with its
• 11:39 prophecies, like the terrible day of the Lord, two witnesses,
• 11:43 and even the future of the Jews.
• 11:46 Caleb: So, here, Josh, at the tribulation's three and a half
• 11:49 year point, everything flips
• 11:51 on its head for Israel.
• 11:53 Their dream, worship in the
• 11:55 temple, becomes a nightmare.
• 11:57 The false prophet who posed as this Jewish Messiah betrays his
• 12:01 own people when the Beast marches in with his armies.
• 12:04 He breaks the peace treaty and commits the abomination
• 12:07 of desolation.
• 12:08 They set up this golden image to the Beast.
• 12:11 It parallels that golden image to Nebuchadnezzar many thousands
• 12:15 of years ago that was set up.
• 12:17 And the false prophet will work signs and wonders, performing
• 12:21 miracles, giving life to that image, and it will speak.
• 12:24 And it reminds me, Josh, of the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and
• 12:28 Abednego, that if anybody does not worship the image of the
• 12:32 Beast, they are put to death.
• 12:34 Joshua: This is where the Mark of the Beast comes in.
• 12:35 You've heard about this, obviously.
• 12:37 If you don't have the mark in your forehead or on your hand,
• 12:40 then you can't buy, sell, or trade.
• 12:43 Joshua: Revelation 13:16 through 17, "It [the False Prophet]
• 12:48 also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free
• 12:52 and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their
• 12:55 foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had
• 12:59 the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of
• 13:02 its name."
• 13:04 Caleb: Many people theorize about the technology behind this
• 13:07 Mark of the Beast.
• 13:08 Currently, we're leaning toward a bio-electronic implant, like
• 13:11 an RFID transmitter.
• 13:13 They've been testing these sorts of RFID chips in our military
• 13:17 for decades, placing them under the hand on their skin, and now
• 13:20 commercially with credit cards.
• 13:21 We believe that if you take this Mark of the Beast, you take on
• 13:25 his nature, you receive that seed of a serpent, becoming
• 13:28 nephilim, having super strength and power and life.
• 13:33 And that's why you can't go to heaven if you receive a Mark of
• 13:35 the Beast.
• 13:37 You're no longer the seed of man.
• 13:38 There's no access to heaven, there's no redemption for you
• 13:41 after that point on.
• 13:43 And we see that Satan himself, you know, he spreads his seed
• 13:46 throughout all humanity because this was his original promise to
• 13:50 mankind, to Eve.
• 13:52 He says, "If you eat of this fruit, you're going to be
• 13:54 like God."
• 13:55 And he's going to promise that God-ship to everyone on
• 13:58 the planet.
• 13:59 Joshua: In the meantime, the ministry of the 144,000 and the
• 14:02 2 prophets is flourishing.
• 14:04 They are defying the Beast, as spoken about in Revelation 7:9
• 14:07 through 17.
• 14:09 They are leading multitudes to Yeshua, and even though they
• 14:11 don't have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, they are being
• 14:14 justified by their commitment and death for the sake of Yeshua
• 14:17 and believing upon him.
• 14:19 They were finally going to get to that day, the day that the
• 14:22 wicked is judged, but the Father has been holding back just the
• 14:25 right time to give everybody the opportunity to make the
• 14:28 right choice.
• 14:30 Caleb: And that reference of Revelation chapter 7 gives us
• 14:33 that assuredness that the trumpet plagues of all the wrath
• 14:37 don't happen until after the middle of the tribulation, and
• 14:40 when these plagues are poured out, it only affects those who
• 14:43 have the Mark of the Beast, and they will seek death by natural
• 14:47 means, and in natural means they can't find it because of this
• 14:51 life that they receive from this perverted, you know,
• 14:54 nephilim blood.
• 14:55 Even Satan himself in the shell of a human flesh will suffer.
• 14:59 He's not, you know, doing good, this is God's wrath poured out
• 15:02 on him, and he suffers because of it.
• 15:04 But when we get to these witnesses and these saints, all
• 15:09 these people who die for the name of Yeshua, they receive a
• 15:12 great reward for doing what's right.
• 15:15 Joshua: Revelation 14:12 to 13,
• 15:18 "This calls for patient endurance
• 15:19 on the part of the people of God who keep His
• 15:21 commands and remain faithful to Jesus.
• 15:24 Then I heard a voice from heaven say, 'Write this: Blessed are
• 15:27 the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'
• 15:29 'Yes,' says the Spirit, 'they will rest from their labor, for
• 15:33 their deeds will follow them.'"
• 15:35 Caleb: Yeshua never minced words for his bride or his
• 15:38 chosen people.
• 15:39 He guaranteed us persecution.
• 15:41 He said, "You would be hated among all nations for my
• 15:44 name's sake."
• 15:45 Revelation 3:10, however, explains that his bride will not
• 15:49 suffer the tribulation.
• 15:51 However, those who rejected Yeshua's sacrifice before the
• 15:54 rapture have to go through it.
• 15:57 Joshua: Let's take a look at some of the tribulation, some of
• 15:59 the judgments that are going to fall on those unbelieving
• 16:02 nations and on those who've received the mark.
• 16:04 Number one, hail mixed with fire falls on the earth, burning up a
• 16:09 third of the grass, the leaves, trees, anything green.
• 16:12 Caleb: Well, the second trumpet judgment is something like an
• 16:15 asteroid that falls from the sky, hits the waters, and a
• 16:19 third of the ships, the sea life, creatures, they die.
• 16:23 Joshua: The next one is wormwood, poisons the water.
• 16:26 Anyone who drinks the water dies.
• 16:29 Caleb: The fourth trumpet is darkness.
• 16:31 It covers a third of the day, a third of the night, a third of
• 16:34 the sun, moon, and stars.
• 16:36 Joshua: Number five, Abaddon releases a demonic scorpion army
• 16:40 that converges for five months on the earth and brings
• 16:43 indescribable pain to anyone who is stung.
• 16:46 Caleb: The sixth trumpet, day 2129, these four Bene Elohim,
• 16:51 angels that were bound at the River Euphrates back in Genesis
• 16:54 6, they were unleashed.
• 16:56 Enraged, they gather a 200 million man army of the Kings of
• 16:59 the East covering the breadth of Asia, killing one third of the
• 17:02 population of mankind on their way to Jerusalem.
• 17:05 Joshua: Matthew 24:21 through 22, "For then there will be
• 17:09 great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of
• 17:13 the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
• 17:17 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be
• 17:20 saved, but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened."
• 17:24 Joshua: The plagues and the punishment were so severe that
• 17:27 God had to limit his timetable to three and a half years.
• 17:29 That is God's mercy shining through in the midst of even
• 17:33 his judgment.
• 17:34 He warned that whenever you see this abomination take place,
• 17:37 flee to the desert to get past that tribulation.
• 17:40 Caleb: Like the desert behind me, this may be the path that
• 17:42 the Jews take.
• 17:44 They're told in many prophecies to go to a place called Basra.
• 17:47 It was gonna be a place of safety, a place of solitude
• 17:50 where they would be supernaturally provided for in
• 17:52 the midst of destruction.
• 17:54 Daniel 11:41 foretells that the Basra in Jordan is going to be
• 17:58 protected from the Beast when he comes in like a flood,
• 18:01 destroying nations.
• 18:03 It says, "He [the Beast]
• 18:04 will also invade the Beautiful Land.
• 18:07 Many countries will fall, but Edom, Moab, and the leaders of
• 18:11 Ammon [Jordan] will be delivered from his hand."
• 18:14 Guys, next week we're going to talk about Yeshua's deliverance
• 18:16 when he finally comes to save not just those people in Basra,
• 18:20 but he's gonna finish the Beast once and for all.
• 18:24 The tribulation saints, they do suffer, but it's necessary for
• 18:28 them to gain access into heaven.
• 18:30 Their act of faith is taken for righteousness, and
• 18:32 they're purified.
• 18:34 I know this sounds heavy, but-- oh, wait, Jeff.
• 18:37 Joshua: Hey!
• 18:38 Caleb: Let's see what he has to say.
• 18:41 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Well, you earned your living
• 18:43 today, gentlemen.
• 18:44 This is a tough story.
• 18:46 Better you than me to have to tell it, to tell you the truth.
• 18:48 I don't even like thinking about it.
• 18:50 The Bible does talk about trouble in the world, trouble in
• 18:53 River City, and to be sure, the Jews have been the object of it
• 18:56 through time and circumstance, but it culminates at the ragged
• 18:59 edge of time.
• 19:01 And so, it is so appropriate to look at this subject in
• 19:03 conjunction with the roadmap to Armageddon.
• 19:06 You told the stuff-- the tough story.
• 19:09 It leaves me a little somber, but truth be known, per Daniel,
• 19:13 that the wicked forces prevail until such a time as the Lord
• 19:18 presents and then displaces the evil kingdom.
• 19:21 Hey, I get the bad news, but I'm in love with the good news.
• 19:26 "I was watching: and the same horn was making war against the
• 19:30 saints, and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days
• 19:35 came, and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most
• 19:40 High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom."
• 19:49 Joshua: It's a very tough subject.
• 19:51 It's a very deeply disturbing idea.
• 19:54 Anti-Semitism, if you look at it, doesn't have a logical basis
• 19:58 throughout history for why so many people groups have had such
• 20:01 a deep hatred.
• 20:03 We want to investigate this because we want to show that the
• 20:06 root of this comes from Satan, that it can't just happen out of
• 20:09 thin air.
• 20:11 And that's why we have our guest today.
• 20:12 Caleb: Yeah, Olivier Melnick, he's really an expert in the
• 20:15 subject of anti-Semitism.
• 20:17 That's the focus of his ministry.
• 20:18 He's going to tell us more about the history of anti-Semitism.
• 20:24 Olivier Melnick: Let me start by giving you quickly, I think it's
• 20:27 important, my definition of anti-Semitism, because that will
• 20:30 set the stage.
• 20:31 My definition of anti-Semitism-- and the first two words are key.
• 20:36 Anti-Semitism is the demonic and irrational hatred of the Jewish
• 20:40 people and of Israel characterized by thoughts,
• 20:44 words, and or deeds against them.
• 20:47 And the two keywords again are demonic and irrational.
• 20:51 Only Satan can make the irrational look and
• 20:53 sound rational.
• 20:54 And it is demonic, it is from Satan because-- and going back
• 20:58 to the Tribulation now-- he wants-- he knows that at the end
• 21:01 of the seven year tribulation, the time of Jacob's trouble, the
• 21:04 Jewish people will corporately say, Blessed is he who comes in
• 21:07 the name of the Lord, baruch haba b'Shem Adonai, and that's
• 21:10 when Yeshua comes back.
• 21:12 A lot-- most Christians actually don't know that Jesus, Yeshua,
• 21:15 does not return, not the Rapture, the Second Coming, does
• 21:19 not return until the Jewish people call on him.
• 21:22 And that's connected to Zechariah 12:10.
• 21:25 And so, what we have here is Satan knows that his career is
• 21:30 going to be ended when Yeshua returns, and he doesn't really
• 21:37 care for his retirement plan.
• 21:38 He doesn't like where he's going.
• 21:40 So, if he could stop the Jews from calling on Jesus,
• 21:43 then his job is safe.
• 21:46 He's gonna keep his job, and Jesus is not coming back.
• 21:49 So, that's what he's been doing for 2,000 years, more than that.
• 21:52 He's been behind anti-Semitism, and he's going to try-- he tried
• 21:56 at the first coming to stop Jesus from coming, and he's
• 21:59 going to try again.
• 22:00 And he's not going to succeed.
• 22:02 But casualties, unfortunately, will take place.
• 22:04 And the casualties that we-- when it comes to the Jewish
• 22:08 people, we look at them from Zechariah 13:8 and 9, that
• 22:12 two-thirds of the Jewish people will die during the tribulation,
• 22:16 and one-third will be refined as silver and gold, and that's that
• 22:20 one-third that will say, "Blessed is you who comes the
• 22:22 name of the Lord" at the end of the seven years.
• 22:25 That one-third is going to be become the Israel of God of
• 22:29 Galatians 6:16, and the important part, if I may add one
• 22:34 more thing, the important part about that scripture, the first
• 22:37 time I saw that scripture I got really upset.
• 22:39 I told my wife, she's the one who led me to the Lord 40 years
• 22:42 ago, and early on I said, you know, I don't like this.
• 22:45 This is-- two-thirds of the Jews are going to be killed during
• 22:47 the tribulation.
• 22:49 If it happens today, that's more than the Holocaust.
• 22:51 That's 10 million out of 15 million, and the Holocaust was
• 22:54 6 million.
• 22:56 I don't like this, but it's part of the Word.
• 22:57 So, I can't take it out.
• 22:58 I can't rewrite the Bible.
• 23:00 And then she said, "Think about it, it's a percentage, not
• 23:04 a number."
• 23:05 And I go like, "So what?"
• 23:07 And she said, "Well, if it's a percentage, if we lead Jewish
• 23:10 people to their Messiah before the rapture, they'll come
• 23:12 with us.
• 23:14 That percentage remains the same, two to one, but their
• 23:16 number can be reduced."
• 23:18 And that got me encouraged.
• 23:19 And now I'm really excited about getting my people saved.
• 23:22 Joshua: It's amazing you said that.
• 23:23 I was actually going to bring that up without you having to
• 23:25 ask it.
• 23:27 We talk all the time on the show about the importance of
• 23:28 witnessing to the Jewish people is that we can't change the
• 23:32 two-thirds, but we can change the pool that it's drawing from.
• 23:35 And two-thirds of ten people is way different than two-thirds of
• 23:39 ten million people.
• 23:40 And so, that understanding that there's coming a day where this
• 23:43 is going to happen, that puts a timeline that we need to get
• 23:46 to work.
• 23:48 Instead of being afraid, instead of saying I don't know how to,
• 23:51 we need to truly minister to the Jewish people and share the love
• 23:54 of Yeshua with them.
• 23:56 David: Yad Vashem is one of the places that we take you on our
• 23:59 tour, and it's a place that we cannot not take people to
• 24:04 because it's part of Jewish history.
• 24:06 Kirsten: You can't understand modern day Israel if you don't
• 24:09 understand the horrors that they walked through to get them to
• 24:12 where they are now.
• 24:13 But unfortunately, as horrible as the Holocaust was, there are
• 24:18 worse days coming, which just breaks my heart.
• 24:22 Caleb: The worst is yet to come, Jeremiah 30, verse 7, the eth
• 24:25 sarah hi le Yaakov, the time of Jacob's trouble.
• 24:29 This is the time when the Beast with his full hatred unleashes
• 24:32 through that harlot of Babylon murder, death, destruction on
• 24:36 the Jewish people and on the saints of God.
• 24:39 Joshua: Revelation 17:6 says, "I saw the woman, drunk with the
• 24:42 blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus."
• 24:46 Revelation 18:24 says, "And in her was found the blood of the
• 24:49 prophets and saints, and of all those who were slain on earth."
• 24:52 These are the saints who have chosen Yeshua, but don't have
• 24:57 the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, of the Ruach HaKadosh,
• 25:00 for the Jewish people who believed but after the fact of
• 25:03 the rapture who were stuck in this tribulation.
• 25:05 And this time, where God pours out his wrath on those who've
• 25:08 received the mark and who've chosen Satan, it's the most
• 25:12 intense in history of mankind.
• 25:14 Kirsten: It's horrific.
• 25:16 Joshua: Revelation 12:11 says, "And they overcame him by the
• 25:18 blood of the Lamb and by the word of his testimony, and they
• 25:21 loved not their lives unto death."
• 25:23 These saints who choose him, who don't have the Holy Spirit,
• 25:28 their life is their sacrifice.
• 25:31 They give their very life for Yeshua, and that is what
• 25:35 cleanses them.
• 25:36 Kirsten: I was just going to say it seems so horrible.
• 25:39 These beautiful-- I mean, you are Jewish, your people have
• 25:43 been called out for such a special purpose throughout
• 25:47 history, from almost the beginning of time.
• 25:50 And, you know, all these horrible things have happened to
• 25:53 them through the centuries.
• 25:55 The Holocaust, one of the worst ever, as you can literally see
• 25:59 at Yad Vashem where you walked.
• 26:01 And to think, it's like, gosh, isn't enough enough for the
• 26:05 Jewish people?
• 26:06 That they still have to endure this?
• 26:07 Caleb: The stubborn hearts, it takes a lot to soften them for
• 26:10 them to finally accept and receive Yeshua.
• 26:13 Zechariah 13:8 through 9 describes two-thirds perish
• 26:15 during this three and a half years, this time of
• 26:18 Jacob's trouble.
• 26:19 And then at the end that one-third is refined by
• 26:22 the fire.
• 26:23 They call upon the name of the Lord, and they're finally saved,
• 26:26 but it takes a lot to get through to them.
• 26:27 Joshua: And this is why we say it's so important that you reach
• 26:30 out now, so that as many Jewish believers can come to the
• 26:35 knowledge of Yeshua now and not have to be in that two-thirds
• 26:38 that perish.
• 26:39 Kirsten: Yeah.
• 26:40 David: It's good.
• 26:42 Kirsten: We'll be right back.
• 26:43 David: Our resource this week, the book,
