Pope Francis says that atheist can go to Heaven and that "same sex" marriage is condoned by the Catholic Church

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Another of the controversies that the Pope has been involved in over the years and this one is about atheist going to Heaven. Did not the Catholic church use to teach David that you had to be baptized into a Catholic church to be saved?

DJ: You're right Jimmy but as I said that really all changed with Vatican too in 1960s. Since the Catholic church teaches a workspace salvation replacing faith with faithfulness and truth with sincerity if someone sincerely lives out what they believe whatever that might be then that person could potentially be saved.

JD: You have mentioned in the past the infallibility of the bishops. The Pope is the bishop of Rome so what happens when he makes a statement that comes in conflict with the teaching of the church. For example, this week the Pope said he endorsed civil union laws for same sex couples. What about that?

DJ: Well the infallibility of the bishops and fallibility which is a sub-set of that. So this doctrine means that when bishops make a formal decision as a group or when the bishop of Rome personally makes a formal declaration that something is true and must be believed. In fact Popes have made infallible proclamations only twice in history. 

So this recent statement about civil union laws for same sex couples was a quote from a new documentary in which the Pope said this, "Homosexual people have a right to be in a family, they're children of God and have a right to a family what we have to create is a civil union law that way they are legally covered". But Jimmy not only is this against church teaching he seems to contradict himself because in 2010 when he was cardinal in Argentina he said this, "there are absolutely no grounds for considering homosexual unions to be in any way similar or remotely analogous to God's plan for marriage and family". So I would say he's a very confused individual and confusing the church as well.

JD: David James with the details about the Pope's recent declarations that atheist can go to Heaven and same sex marriage must be condoned by the Catholic church.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

This report from David James is for the purpose of informing all Catholics and non-Catholics of the recent statements from Pope Francis. The Pope's statements contradict the Bible which is God's word. The two declarations atheist can go to Heaven and same sex marriage must be condoned by the Catholic church are refuted in John 14:6 and Romans 1. God's word is the absolute authority not the Catholic church. 

Joe Biden, Candidate for President of the United States, has promised the American Muslim community that in his administration there will be Muslims serving at every level

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Joe Biden who is a candidate for President of the United States addressed the Muslim advocates and they received a promise from Joe Biden that Muslims would play a key role at every level in his administration should he be elected as President. Should we have concerns about this?

SH: Well Dr. DeYoung we should absolutely have concern because the Muslim brotherhood and the Muslim community as a whole has really ramped up their political activities which is something we have tried to warn Christians about that Islam is not just a religion. It's a political ideology and it is one that seeks to then impose its law Sharia upon other Western laws. In this case our Constitution. 

Joe Biden is now pandering to the Muslim community because the majority of Muslim Americans are voting Democrat, they're voting left. They're not getting elected just by the Muslim vote. They're getting elected because of the left. It's the progressive, the socialist they support the Muslim groups. The thing is what's concerning is what he said, because he actually quotes in there besides what you said about him saying that he wants Muslims to serve in his administration at every level. I want to just address with you what he said from the Hadi. Joe Biden quotes the Hadi and he doesn't understand what the Hadi means. It's actually a call to Jihad. We have to be concerned about the political implications of Muslim advocacy and we have to be concerned with the national security implications of Joe Biden allowing Muslims at every level of his administration. 

JD: Shahram Hadian warning us of the Biden promise to American Muslims to include Muslims in every level of his administration should he win the Presidential election.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

In his own words Joe Biden has promised to allow the Muslims to move ahead in their effort to bring down America and set up an Islamic caliphate that's a world wide Islamic kingdom. The word Islam is not mentioned in the Bible however the Islamic states today are mentioned in Ezekiel 38, Psalm 83, and Daniel 11. These nations are active players in our world today ready to fulfill Bible prophecy and very soon. 

Facebook is allowing Palestinian terrorist to call for freedom of Jerusalem and graves for the Jews

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Well let's talk about that video that is in your alert. It's a video talking to the Palestinian people wanting to insight the Palestinian terrorist to let Jerusalem be freed from the Jewish people and prepare for Jewish graves. Now this is a video that's on Palestinian Media. 

IM: This is put on Fatah's official Facebook page and I'll discuss Facebook in a moment. The words are outrageous and it's referring to the peace that was made between Israel and Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, two Arab countries that finally decided to stop hating Israel after all of these years and make peace something Israel has wanted all along. 

They're saying that just making peace with Israel is heresy and therefore you Jerusalem should wait for the nights of Allah. They're turning it into a religious war. The nights of Allah are going to free you of the Jews and this is going to be the Jews grave yard. This song that Fatah chose to put this song on their Facebook page is an outrage first of all but that Facebook agrees to post this song is a double outrageous. Facebook would never post this kind of hatred if it was directed against any other ethnic group. If it was directed against Muslims, if it was directed to African Americans. If they take these things off in a second but when? It's directed against Jews Facebook allows it to stay. Now they claim that they don't but we've have been reporting this to them for years. This is the kind of hate that still appears on Fatah's Facebook.

JD: Itamar Marcus, director of Palestinian Media Watch explaining how Facebook is promoting Palestinian terror.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Palestinian Media Watch is a team of Jews that monitor the Palestinian Media, the print media, the electronic media, and the social media produced by the Palestinian leadership. Itamar Marcus claims that Facebook allows for the radical element of the Palestinian body politic to promote the taking of Jerusalem away from the Jews and preparation for the graves of the Israeli Jews. This actually is a page right out of the prophetic passages of God's word. I'm referring to Ezekiel 35:5 & 10. Verse 5 says that the Palestinian people will kill the Jews in the last days and then steal their land, in particular Jerusalem, that's Ezekiel 35:10. This prophecy is in the process of being fulfilled today.

All foreign dignitaries who visit Jerusalem must make a stop at Yad Vashem and now onto the Temple Mount as well

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Any foreign dignitary who would visit the Jewish state would have to take a visit to Yad Vashem to understand the mind set of the Jewish people. Now I understand there's a group of lawmakers who want to bring all visiting foreign dignitaries onto the Temple Mount as well. 

DD: Again another sign of the growing centrality and importance of the Temple Mount to Israel and the fact that more and more people are openly talking about rebuilding a Temple there and at least having access to pray there without restrictions and more and more prayer going on. We've been discussing this for the past several years really. So it would be a natural step. 

Most world leaders do visit the Western Wall at the base of the Temple Mount, a part of the Mount but just a small part of it. Most do that but going up on the Temple Mount would obviously be another step forward. However Jimmy I doubt at this stage that many world leaders would be willing to do that. Almost all of them do go to Yad Vashem when they're visiting the country although the delegation that came from Bahrain and the UAE did not go up there but then they didn't even get to Jerusalem because of the Coronavirus which by the way is declining significantly. But again they would be reluctant most world leaders to go up there because of course the Palestinians would really throw a hissy fit if they started taking world leaders up there. So we'll see. But if a world leader wants to go up there I think now that would happen. There are some that probably would want to do that despite the predictable Palestinian and really Islamic world opposition to that. 

JD: David Dolan explaining why all foreign dignitaries visiting Jerusalem stop at Yad Vashem the Holocaust Museum and now will also visit the Temple Mount.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

In order for any nation to do business with Israel they must visit Yad Vashem that's the Holocaust Museum and they do that so that they can know the modern day history of the Jewish people. Now Israeli lawmakers want these visiting dignitaries to go up onto the Temple Mount as well. That will give these visitors a 3,000 year history of the Jewish people and their connection to this sacred piece of real estate the Temple Mount. That sacred spot you might remember is where the Lord has chosen to dwell among the Jewish people forever, that's Psalm 132:13-14.

The Iranian President says that the next American President must admit defeat and surrender to Iran

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Ken the President of Iran, Rouhani says that the next US President must admit defeat and surrender to Iran. What can you tells us about this threat from the President?

KT: Jimmy I think this is just classic projection. In other words projection Iran's own sense of defeat under the US sanctions which has crippled their economy. The rial has completely crashed. It's virtually worthless that's the Iranian currency. So I think it's just projection. I think this is just Rouhani essentially signaling that Iran is at it's wits end that they don't know what to do. As we know now from the Director of National Intelligence John Radcliffe Iranian hackers have been trying to interfere in US elections to damage President Trump. They have been impersonating a group called the Proud Boys which until this story hit the news I don't think anybody had ever heard of. I certainly hadn't heard of them. They're supposed to be some sort of white supremacist group out there. They deny they're white supremacist by the way. They probably are 13 guys in a basement. 

But anyways Iranians have been sending out emails to Democrat voters whose information they got from hacking voter registration sites. This is one of the thing I talk about in the Election Heist, my new book, sending them emails warning them if they vote for President Trump the Proud Boys will come and get them. The D&I was very prompt in denouncing this effort by the Iranians to interfere in the election. So I think that's what we're seeing. We're seeing a desperation on the part of the Iranian regime. They desperately need Joe Biden to become President because Biden has already said he will restore the failed Iran deal and basically lift sanctions on them. He is their only life line and I think this is ultimately what this is all about.

JD: Ken Timmerman explaining why the Iranian President Rouhani says that the next American President must admit defeat and then surrender to Iran.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The bravado of the Iranian President Rouhani that America will surrender to Iran having admitted defeat does not fit the prophetic scenario that is found in the Bible. Iran known as Persia in Ezekiel 38:5, Iran will join an Islamic coalition to endeavor to destroy the Jewish state of Israel. This alignment will fail and according to the prophetic text will be destroyed themselves, that's Ezekiel 39:1-6. God's word will be fulfilled.

Your method of interpretation is key for both Preachers and Supreme Court Justices

Listen to Today's Program

JD: The difference between how Liberal and Conservative Supreme Court Justices actually decide cases that they hear.

DJ: It's important because the framers of the Constitution wrote it from a Judeo - Christian world view which we've mentioned before. Now some of those framers had very bad theology but it's undeniable the Biblical principles do undergird the Constitution. Liberal Justice tend to be what are called living Constitutionalist who see the Constitution as a living document that must be interpreted and applied according to the evolving cultural context. Now Conservatives tend to be originalist who see the Constitution as a fixed and stable document that must be interpreted according to the intent of its authors and how it was understood by those who ratified it. So the text means what it said. So the question for them would be what did this mean when it was written. 

Jimmy, when a country that was established on Biblical principles moves away from those principles then this drift is only going to accelerate if neither the Legislative nor the Judicial branches of government have an anchor for decision making. 

JD: And talking about living Constitutionalism vs Constitution Originalism it sounds a lot like the differences between Liberal and Conservative theology. Do you think there's a connection between the two David?

DJ: Jimmy, I absolutely think there's a significant correlation between the two. And there are reasons why across the board Liberalism or Conservatism exists and it's because of competing world views. Theological Conservatives take the Bible seriously and work hard to figure out what God was saying to the Biblical writers in their own historical context and to apply those principles to influence culture because they believe in absolute truth. On the other hand theological Liberals tend to see the Bible as largely or entirely a human book written by fallible people just trying to explain and deal with situations in their historical context. So they allow their interpretations to be influenced by culture, our own culture, the modern culture, the present day culture and they tend not to believe in absolute truth. 

JD: David James with Bible in hand explaining why a method of interpretation is key to both preachers and Supreme Court Justices. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The method of interpretation is so important to both preachers who work to see what God wants us to know and Supreme Court Justices who need to understand what the writers of the Constitution were setting in place as the law of the land. One thing for sure we need an anchor for our decision making process, the Bible is that anchor. 

The European Space Agency, on a space probe to Mercury, stopped by Venus to see if there is life on this planet in our Milky Way

Listen to Today's Program

JD: The European Space Agency is sending a spacecraft up to an endeavor to try to find out about Mercury, one of the planets out there in our own universe. I wanted to ask you about what they said. On the way to Mercury they're going to fly by Venus and they were going to spend some time looking for life on Venus. Before we talk about the possibility of life on any other planets as it relates to our twin planet with Earth could there be possibility of life on any other planet? I think we discussed it before, remind everybody what you said then.

DD: There is a lot of interest in near by planets both Mercury and Venus. On Venus there's been a detection of some phosgene gas in the atmosphere there. Now of course that's deadly poison but phosgene would be a type of a bacteria. So there's just a thought that perhaps there's some kind of microb life some how on Venus. It's definitely a long shot. Venus is a desperate planet about 900 degrees for the temperature and poisonous. 

Actually what's going on Jimmy is there's continual search for life other places. There's the assumption that life begins spontaneously, that it happened on Earth and so it should happen else where. But of course what we're finding, the result of this whole space age is that there is not a shred of life evidence anywhere else where as on the Earth God has place an abundance of life from pole to pole.

JD: And in addition to that in His word He said that He chose Earth in which to send His son Jesus Christ having put us on this Earth so we can be redeemed to God the Father through Jesus Christ. That's absolute evidence is it not?

DD: The Scripture says that God gave the Earth to man but the Heavens belong to Him not the aliens.

JD: Don DeYoung with the details that it is impossible for there to be life on the planet Venus.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Dr. Don DeYoung who is a scientist and an astronomer is also a born again Christian and a student of the Bible. Don as a scientist knows that there is no chance for human life on Venus. However, as a student of the Bible Don can stand on the authority of God's word to prove his statement, that's Deuteronomy 10:14 and Isaiah 45:18. God's word is absolute on creation and prophecy. 

The financial world is ready to go to a "digital currency"

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Now I also understand that the Central Banks are putting together a frame work for a digital currency, how will that come together?

RM: On April 29th of this year the BBC recorded that the Coronavirus accelerated the decline of cash usage. The lockdown has led to a 60% fallen of a number of withdrawals from cash machines causing experts to say that the future of cash is at risk. The most small businesses have been restricting the use of cash since March. While most Central Banks are telling the public that digital currency is not meant to replace cash. The facts on the ground tell a different story. In fact if we work backwards from what we know from Bible prophecy the opposite is true. 

JD: That is the ultimate goal as we look forward. How could it ultimately go into a total digital money and is that possible in the near future?

RM: On September 26th Cleveland President Loretta Mester announced in a speech on Central Bank digital currencies, now they're called CBDC's for short, that recent Legislation has proposed that each American will one day will have an account instead in which digital dollars could be quickly deposited to be used for emergency relief. Two things immediately are accomplished with that, cash is eliminated and the Central Bank has control of everything.

JD: Boy that does sound very similar to what the antichrist will use as foretold there in Revelation 13:16-17. You're a student and teacher of Bible prophecy, does it not sound very much like that end time scenario to you Ron?

RM: Correct. For an authoritarian government to have complete control over every financial transaction. Central Banks will likely begin consolidating and eventually it will only be one.

JD: Ron Morro explaining how the financial world could switch very quickly to a digital currency and do that in the near future. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Ron's report sound very much like the prophetic scenario that is found in the book of Revelation 13. This chapter in God's word is the most detailed information on how the antichrist will set in place an economic system, a worldwide system for each person on Earth to participate in in order to be able to buy and sell, in fact to be able to sustain life, that's Revelation 13:16-17. This one world economic system will be headquartered in Babylon the literal city of Babylon, that's Revelation 18. The stage is set for these prophecies to be fulfilled.

The Quran, the "holy book" of the Muslim people, requires "holy war" against the Jews

Listen to Today's Program

JD: I understand the Palestinian Authority Mufti which would be the highest ranking Islamic cleric there with the Palestinian Authority has said that the Sharia obligates every Muslim to make holy war, Jihad against the Jews, give us the latest on that. 

DD: Yes well that is a very widely held belief among fundamentalist Muslims. It was also extenuated this week by Hamas television in the Gaza Strip which broadcast the story saying the Quran permits the killing of Jews because Jews are by nature criminals because they reject Mohammad as the final profit and this sort of thing for the most part. So this is the line that Muslim fundamentalist take. It's the core of the conflict as I've said so many times between Israel and the Islamic world really and that is this Islamic idea that they have superseded Judaism and Christianity. That they represent the final truth and the full truth and that the greatest profit is theirs Mohammad and not Moses or Jesus or any of these other things. 

So you know they base it on their religious faith and that is something that is hard to change as the late King Hussein of Jordan pointed out in a speech one time. That you can't really negate the religious beliefs of your people if they really hold to them. Unfortunately one of those tenants is this rejections of the Jewish state. But as we've just discussed younger Muslims in a lot of the Arab world are turning more and more towards the idea of peace and are not picking up the sword of Jihad. But the Palestinian Authority still is, Hamas very much still is, Hezbollah, Iran, Turkey increasingly so and all of that combined means that the war will continue. It's just the sad fact.

JD: David Dolan with the details on how the Quran, the Islamic holy book requires all Muslims to make holy war against all Jews. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Dave's report is why the Palestinian people want to wipe out the Jews in their nation of Israel. These Palestinian radicals motivated by the Palestinian Authority Mufti who is the highest ranking Muslim cleric in Israel. The Mufti says that the law of the Quran, the Sharia calls for the Palestinian people to wage holy war on the Jews. In other words kill all the Jews as foretold in Ezekiel 35:5. Malachi 1:4 reveals God's ending nation against the Palestinian people forever.

North Korea may have a missile that could be used to attack Israel and the United States

Listen to Today's Program

JD: It's interesting, China is really moving into the Middle East and endeavoring to try to get the situation so that they can from that particular location go after Israel. Talk to me about what we have been hearing that North Korea has a massive new missile. It's now being said that that could help Iran as they threaten Israel. What do we know?

KT: Well here's what actually happened, is that the North Koreans recently had a massive annual parade where they trot out all of their weapons and their prototypes. They showed four gigantic tractor erector vehicles, 11 axels each, 22 wheeled tractor erector vehicles where this gigantic road mobile missile could be stood up and then fired after it moves to some new deployment area. 

What we don't know Jimmy is whether they've actually test fired. In fact there's no open source information to show that they've either test fired this actually missile or whether they've test fired the rocket motors that are believed to power it. If it is a real missile which again there's some doubt on this, it could experts are saying reach any place of the Continental United States with a very large nuclear warhead. But again a lot of this is hypothetical. So far North Korea has never actually deployed a missile that it first unveiled at one of these national parades. So this could just be a fait, it could just be a sign to the Trump administration or to an incoming Biden administration saying, hey we're still here we still have a nuclear weapons program and by the way we are still designing long range missiles ICBMs that could devastate the United States of America if you don't pay us off. In the long run that's what the North Koreans have always been seeking from the United States is that we would pay them off to get rid of their nuclear weapons.

JD: Ken Timmerman's report on the potential for a new North Korean missile that could attack America and the Jewish State of Israel.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Ken's report not only speaks of a present day threat on Israel and the United States but also a prophetic scenario that is an absolute in the upcoming seven year period of judgment known as the Tribulation. Revelation 16:12 speaks of the kings of the east who will be the major players in the last half of that Tribulation period. China and India will make up a large part of the kings of the east but North Korea will be included as well in that scenario that will be fulfilled in the near future. 

Evangelical Christians may disagree with the Catholic Church on many doctrines but they do agree with Catholics on the abortion issue

Listen to Today's Program

JD: In light of the upcoming elections David, Joe Biden is Catholic and the Roman Catholics make up one of the largest voting blocks in the United States. It would be helpful to understand the Catholic Churches official position on abortion. 

DJ: Back in 1994 a number of prominent Catholic and Protestant Theologians and ministry leaders published a document titled, "Evangelicals and Catholics Together". Over 25 years now there's been a campaign to try to convince people that the reformation is effectively over because Catholics and Evangelicals now essentially agree on salvation but that is really categorically false and very deceptive. I'm not endorsing the Catholic Church in any way but they are on the right side of the abortion issue. 

If you look at the official main catechism of the Catholic Church paragraph 2271 says this, Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that to say, abortion willed either as and end or a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law. What that means Jimmy when it says gravely contrary that means its a mortal sin and it will send you to hell for engaging in that sin.

JD: Several Biblical reasons why abortion is murder.

DJ: When Job was suffering he said in chapter 3 verse 16, or why was I not hidden like a still born child like infants who never saw the light. So he refers to an unborn baby as a child and a child is a person. In Genesis 25 we read about Rebekah and when she was pregnant and the children struggled together within her. In Psalm 139 King David wrote, "For you form my inward parts, you covered me in my mothers womb, I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made". And if we think of the incarnation itself we must ask when it was that God took on human flesh. It could only have been at the moment the holy spirit overshadowed Mary and she could see.

JD: David James explaining why Evangelical Christians do not agree with the Catholic Church on many doctrines but they do agree with them on the abortion issue. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

David listed a number of passages in the Bible where God explains why abortion is against His will. In fact He reveals abortion is murder. Remember murder is punishable by death, that's Genesis 9:6. God wonderfully made all of us and has a plan for each of us today and into the future. 

The Bible is the voter guidebook for all true born-again, Bible-believing Christians

Listen to Today's Program

JD: There are some who may well be born again Christians who say that they don't like Trump's personality, they don't like the way he talks. They just don't like voting for him so they're going to vote for Joe Biden. How can a true born again Bible believing Christian vote for a man who is totally in favor of abortion and also homosexuality? 

SR: Jimmy I don't think it's actually possible. I do not believe it's possible for a true believer who says I have a relationship with Jesus Christ, I believe the Bible is the authoritative word of God and what God establishes is the final determination on moral law and therefore they would believe the Constitution and all that the rights has given from God under the Constitution. If a person says those things and has a Biblical worldview, views those things, there's no way possible way that he could be an obedient Christian and vote for a candidate Joe Biden or the Democrat ticket that in all of its aspects takes positions that are a hundred percent totally contrary in every regard to the word of God or any moral position that you may choose to pick. 

I don't think it's possible for a person to say I will vote for the positions of the devil and call themselves a Christian and that's really what they are. All of those positions abortion, in human sexuality, transgenderism, globalism, socialism, and communism of which the Democratic party has wrapped its arms around it. Those are Biblical definitions. That's evil. So how can a true believer support evil? I say no true believer can support evil. That's how I would answer that question. I don't think it's possible. 

JD: Sam Rohrer with a strait forward statement on how a true Bible believing born again Christian should vote when he or she enter the voting booth especially in the upcoming Presidential election.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Sam Rohrer who is the President of the American Pastor's Network and the host of Stand In The Gap Radio and TV in his report made a statement that you may agree with or disagree with. However, Sam based his statement on the Biblical word of God and its principles. Remember God who wrote the Bible also set human government in place so that He could use human government to direct this world in the way He wants them to go, that's Genesis 9:6. God will also use political leaders to make decisions that will accomplish His will for the future, that's Revelation 17:17. God's way will indeed fulfill Bible prophecy. 

Palestinian Media Watch has documented that both male and female "suicide bombers" are being recruited with the reward of "sexual satisfaction"

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Itamar according to your report I understand that there are women who are volunteering to be suicide bombers as well. Is this a normal type of thing?

IM: It was unusual. During that period where we had 310 suicide bombings of which 100 plus or so I think were successful, tragically successful from their prospective of that about 10 of them were females. Interesting thing is they're not just promised paradise. The men are promised that they are going to marry 72 dark eyed virgins in paradise that this is their reward. What we're learning now and what we learned last week is that a women she said she was expected to be rewarded in marrying, that was going to be her reward. 

So its the tragedy here is that these people are in a society which puts certain values on celibacies and because of the repression of sexual impulses and sexual activity then they can offer them a reward in paradise of endless sex essentially with 72 virgins. It sounds outrageous, it sounds unbelievable. You can see men who the next day went out and blew themselves up and murdered Israeli's and what do they say to the tv camera that was filming them? They said, "I'm not afraid to go because I've got my wedding and I'm waiting to be greeted by the 72 virgins". So this is something that in their warped minds is actually real. 

JD: Itamar Marcus with the details of how the Palestinian media is using a reward of sexual satisfaction to recruit both male and female Palestinian suicide bombers. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

It almost sounds vulgar to give this report however, this is Islamic belief and reality in the Islamic world today. The Palestinian suicide bombers are weapons to be used in the war against the Jewish people. Ezekiel 35:35 reveals death to the Jews is a part of a Palestinian strategy to defeat their long time enemies the Jewish people. This battle actually started in the mothers womb of both Jacob and Esau, that's Genesis 25:23. This conflict will continue until Jesus Christ returns, that's Obadiah verses 15-18. The stage is being set for these prophecies to be fulfilled. 

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan says that Jerusalem has been a Turkish city for thousands of years

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Tayyip Erdogan is making a statement that Jerusalem has been the city for the Turks for thousands of years. I don't think history would confirm that, what are your thoughts?

DD: Well Jimmy it's the strongest statement that he's ever made about Israel and Jerusalem and basically threatening to retake Jerusalem. I'm going to quote what he told the Parliament during this week, he said, "Jerusalem is ours, Jerusalem is from us. In this city that we had to leave in tears during the first World War it is still possible to come across traces of the Ottoman resistance." So of course he's talking about retaking Jerusalem basically there, that it's ours. Well it was from 1516 until 1917 it was exclusively under Ottoman control but that just a few centuries. It's been under other Arab control and Muslim control over the centuries. And of course the Ottoman Empire followed the Christian Byzantine Empire that was there earlier and of course the Jewish state which is back and in control of Jerusalem. 

So it is not Turkey's. It was only briefly Turkey's and the Israeli's are not going to let it revert to Erdogan's control if they can in anyway prevent that. But in a sense Jimmy it was an indirect declaration of war. Of course coming on all the other trouble we now have new Turkish claims in Cyprus made this week. We have been fueling the up flared war between Armenia and Azerbaijan very much supporting Azerbaijan in that conflict. So it's a mess but he wants badly to take back that Ottoman Empire and bring it back. The whole region has to be up in arms about that literally because he's got a major military force he can play with and doing that in Libya as well. So trouble in the region for sure.

JD: David Dolan with the details on the claim by Turkish President Erdogan that Jerusalem is a Turkish city and has been so for thousands of years.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

First of all the claim by Erdogan is historically incorrect and is a statement from ignorance. Secondly, the claim is Biblically incorrect as well. God gave Jerusalem to the Jewish people forever, that's II Samuel 7. In fact God chose Jerusalem to dwell among His people forever as well, that's Psalm 132:13 & 14. And let me remind you it is the eternal capital for the kingdom of Jesus Christ, Zechariah 6:13.

Radical Islamists are meeting to strategize on how to destroy the Abraham Accords peace talks between Israel and their Arab neighbors

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Ken very interesting development as it relates to the Abraham Accords. It looks like Hamas the Islamic terror organization headquartered in the Gaza Strip in Israel and the Bahraini's who are radical Islamist who are opposed to the Israeli and the Arab nations having these peace deals. This does not sound good. They're strategizing with the purpose of trying to bring these peace agreements down. Sounds pretty bad doesn't it?

KT: Well here you go Jimmy, this is one of those stories that we are starting to cover here on Prophecy Today that you will not read about in the national media here in the United States. Step by step by step we've been watching this collaboration between Iran and the Bahrain opposition, against the Peace Accords and now Hamas against the Peace Accords with the Bahraini opposition as well. They met this past week in Lebanon in what I would call a terror summit. It was not just Hamas it was also the leaders of Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the popular front for the liberation of Palestine. All of these being with the Bahraini opposition, the Shiite opposition in Bahrain. So they have a beef not just with Israel they have a beef with the Sunni government of Bahrain which is supported by the United States. So this is again advancing those pons, another step in the direction of creating a new front of stead fastness such as we've saw in the Arab world led by Iraq 40 years ago.

JD: Ken Timmerman with the details behind the strategy meetings between radical Islamist putting together a plan to destroy the peace agreements between Israel and their Arab neighbors. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Ken's detailed report reveals that radical Islamist have aligned in the Middle East because they do not want to see the Jewish State of Israel make peace with the Arab world. These recent Abraham Accords signed at the White House have been set in place to bring about co existence between these former enemies in the Middle East, the Jews and the Arabs. The Islamist plan as discussed by Hamas and the radical Islamic element in Bahrain is to align all Muslim states to destroy Israel, that's Ezekiel 38. God's plan Ezekiel 38:18-39:6 is to wipe out the Muslim world. Remember God's plan will bring victory for the Jewish people. 

The Constitution, like the Bible, is an unchanging document

Listen to Today's Program

JD: One of the things we often hear in the discussion about the Supreme Court is the matter of Legislating from the bench. 

DJ: Legislating from the bench is actually a negative concept because it means deviating from the separation of powers inshrined in the Constitution. The function of the Supreme Court should technically be limiting to ruling on the Constitutionality of those laws and of how they're applied and enforced. The Supreme Court is supposed to be an impartial body but everyone obviously has their own personal, political, social, moral and I would say ethnical views. 

There are two basic philosophies concerning the Constitution that come into play. The Liberal view is that the Constitution is a living breathing document that must be continually interpreted and applied in a way that reflects changing values and norms as society and culture and all. The Conservative view on the other hand is what is referred to as the originalist approach and that means that the Constitution is a fixed document that should be understood and interpreted according to the original intent of the framers. It's similar to the discussion between liberal and conservative interpretation of the Bible.

JD: How does thinking about the Supreme Court and actually the court system in general affect how a believer, a born again Christian should vote or whether they should vote at all?

DJ: Well let's think about my last point concerning the Bible and the difference between liberal and conservative interpretations of the Bible. Jimmy you and I see the message of the Bible as inspired, fixed and unchanging so the moral and ethnical standards we find in the Bible doesn't change over time even though society does change. This means that our interpretation doesn't change because its based on absolutes that's the conservative approach. Second, the framers of the Constitution quite intentionally incorporated a lot of Biblical principles into the Constitution and they saw those as absolute trues that had been revealed by God. So their intent was for our country to be forever guided by those principles and that's why we as Conservatives want originalists Justices on the Supreme Court.

JD: David James discussing with me how the Constitution and the Bible are unchanging documents. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

God's word the Bible like the United States Constitution is an absolute document. It's original statements are to be read and interpreted as the writers wrote them in the original, that also applies to the Bible God's word given to man kind, that's II Timothy 3:16 & 17. God's word is inspired, fixed and unchanging. The Bible is truth for today, tomorrow, and forever.

Muslims here in America are running for political office for the purpose of setting up a worldwide caliphate

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Shahram I have also noticed not only that there are many Muslim candidates running for office this year but there are many pervious candidates who have been elected or holding office already around the United States. Now I understand Islam has a desire to put together a worldwide caliphate. Do you believe that possibly could be the reason for many Muslims coming into the political arena and consider the possibility of overthrowing America. Is that a viable possibility?  

SH: It is a viable possibility and what's very viable right now is the fact that they're trying to get to the upper house so that house where they can then dominate and overthrow and change the current system of government under Islamic ideology. Islam is not, and this is where people against get it so wrong, Islam is not just a religion it's a political system, a governmental system. Sharia their law must be superior. 

One of the things you see when these Muslims get elected is they begin to in particularly in areas where they have heavy concentration they begin to push for implication of Sharia in those areas. Sharia is antithetical to our US Constitution. Sharia antithetical to our first amendment, our Bill of Rights. This is treason. This is not just political view points. They have hundreds of candidates running at all levels of government and when they get elected and they get sworn in on the Quran. I mean this is outrageous that they're not swearing in on the Bible. They're swearing in on the Quran. Everybody is afraid of Islamophobia well listen folks if we love this republic and our nation then we have to call it out. But when you see the level of corruption they're calling for revolution and they're siding with BLM and Antifa and all these groups we have a problem on our hands. We have to political engage and spiritually engage if we want to save this republic.  

JD: Shahram Hadian giving us the details of the campaign for the Muslims to get involved in the political arena here in America.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A reader of the Quran which is the Muslim holy book will understand the commandment for the Muslims to set up a worldwide caliphate that is a worldwide Islamic kingdom. The Islamic kingdom will contradict the kingdom that God will give His son Jesus Christ and that's Daniel 7:13 & 14. The scenario in the end of days is this battle which Jesus will win, Revelation 19:16 when He becomes the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

The future of Syrian President Bashar Assad and his nation Syria may depend on the outcome of the United States Presidential elections

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Ken let me talk to you about Bashar Assad his future and seemingly the Civil War, the nine year long Civil War really could hinge on what happens in the US Presidential elections. What does that mean? That's the headline, talk to me about the headline.

KT: It could Jimmy because President Trump and the former Vice President Joe Biden have very different approaches for Syria and Iran because let's not forget that Syria is a client state of Iran. They are a client state of Iran and Russia, both of them. But the Syrians, Assad would not be in power today if it were not for the support of Iranian regime and of the military support he's getting from Russia. So the two Presidential candidates the President and Biden have very different approaches. 

Biden would like to revive the Iran deal. He would like to allow Iran to re-enter world commerce to be able to trade in dollar, to be able to spread basically their evil around the world without being constrained by the United Stated. President Trump has been trying to contain and constrain Iran and put pressure on them to pressure on the regime while talking about helping the Pro Freedom Movement inside the country. He's trying to encourage the Pro Freedom Movement. Where as we know Biden when he was Vice President put a damper on the Pro Freedom Movement. All of this will impact Assad and Assad's future. President Trump has said he does not want to have a footprint in Syria. He wants to bring US troops home. Biden has said he would keep a US footprint in Syria. To tell you the truth nobody really knows what's going to happen to Assad after the election. I happen to think it's going to be far more important what happens with Russia and Syria and their relationship to Assad than anything the United Sates will be doing.

JD: Ken Timmerman on the details behind the future of Syrian President Assad and his nation which may be dependent on the outcome of the American Presidential election.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Ken's report gave us great insight into the future of Syria and it's President Bashar Assad being dependent on the outcome of the United States Presidential election. However, I think the ancient Jewish prophet Daniel has the real answer to the question of the future of Syria and Assad. Daniel 11:40 mentions Syria as the king of the north which will lead the alignment of nations to try and destroy the Jewish state of Israel. Syria will indeed make the first move to fulfill that prophecy. 

An Orthodox Jewish Broadcast Partner explains the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Let's begin actually by talking about the Feast of Tabernacles. Its the last of the seven Jewish Feasts but it's a very important Feast day especially for the Jewish people. Just tell us what is Feast of Tabernacles all about?

WM: We have among the festivals that we have we have three that we call Pilgrimage Festivals. In other words when the Temple existed 2,000 years ago according to the Bible commanded to come to Jerusalem on those three festivals which was Passover, the Feast of Weeks, and as you call it the Feast of Tabernacles or Booths. It is one of the three main joyous festivals. It is very joyous because actually the Bible says and you shall be happy and joyful at that time even in fact looking upon it as a commandment that at this time we find joy in the life that we live. 

The major elements of it for those who are unfamiliar observant Jews will be building booths or huts on their lawns, on their balconies in which they would at the very least take all their meals during the seven days of the holiday. During the morning prayers they will also be waving the palm frond and three other elements of nature a citron fruit, a willow branch and a myrtle branch as we understand that is what the commandment is. And if it wasn't for the Corona we'd be having almost every night music and festival in which we would dance at the synagog which we have.  

JD: Winke Medad explaining the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

In order to educate our Christian friends I had Winkie Medad who is as I said an Orthodox Jewish broadcast partner here on Prophecy Today come to explain Tabernacles the last of the seven Jewish Feast days as foretold in Leviticus 23. As a student of Bible prophecy I believe that the Messiah Jesus Christ will fulfill all of the three fall Jewish Feasts. He will return on the Feast of Trumpets, go into the holy of hollies on the Temple Mount on Yom Kippur, and will be given His kingdom on the Feast of Tabernacles. That is found in Matthew 24:31 for Trumpets, Hebrews 9:25-28 for Yom Kippur, and Matthew 17 for the Feast of Tabernacles. 

A Jewish Feast that will be celebrated forever will be celebrated differently this year in Jerusalem

Listen to Today's Program

JD: David this is a time of the year in Israel when there's normally thousands of Christians coming from all across the world and joining with the Jewish people as they move into the seven day celebration of the last of the Jewish Feasts, the Feast of Tabernacles. But because of the Coronavirus lockdown in Israel not many Christians this year but the Jewish people will still celebrate in their sukkah's in their tabernacles or booths will they not?

DD: First of all let me just say that you turned 80 this week. So I just want to say happy birthday to you and congratulations to joining a new decade. Happy birthday.

Jimmy, it's a very difficult holiday in Israel obviously because of the return of the Coronavirus. Others are being affect that are in the government and connected to it. And of course President Trump announcing that he and his wife have it and Prime Minister sending them greetings and saying that the nation of Israel will be in prayer for them. But sukkah's are being allowed. Normally many people would be going out and celebrating with a lot of other people as well as in their home sukkah's but those have been banned. 

Indeed the virus has doubled in its infection rate in the Orthodox Jewish communities the ones that really are observant of Sukkah in every way. So it's different and as you mentioned the International Christian Embassy Feasts of Tabernacles has gone virtual so people will still be able to participate in that. The tourism industry completely flat. The hotels are mostly closed. So it's a very very different holiday period. One as many rabbi's said reflection is more the case then celebration where people are really maybe turning back to God in many ways or crying out to Him because of the situation. So that's the silver lining behind the difficult days that of course not just Israel but the world are dealing with. 

JD: David Dolan with his report on a different kind of celebration for the Feast of Tabernacles this year in Jerusalem.

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Leviticus 23 is the Biblical directive for celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles for the Jewish people on a yearly bases. However in Zechariah the ancient Jewish prophet in Zechariah 14:16 & 19 reveals that in the kingdom to come and in fact forever into eternity future all of the population of the Earth will travel to Jerusalem for the annual celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles. Today the Jewish people are setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

A book review of Jonathon Cahn's latest book will reveal Biblical problems

Listen to Today's Program

JD: I do want to get to Jonathon Cahn's newest book David and how it fits into what he has written over the years.

DJ: It's title again is the Harbinger Two with the subtitle the Return. It builds on its first book The Harbinger which had the subtitle The Ancient Mystery That Holds the Secret to America's Future. It's Cahn's seventh book since 2012. The Harbinger Two is a novel like the first book and also like the first book Cahn says this, "what you are about to read will take the form of a story but what is revealed in the story is real". And the underline premise that America is in a covenant relationship with God like national Israel because of vows made by some Founding Fathers. So Old Testament prophecy and promises of blessings to ancient Israel are also applicable to the United States in what I call parallel theology as appose to replacement theology. So the warnings of judgment by the prophets starting with Moses also apply to the United States according to Cahn. And with the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 they're now being fulfilled according to what he describes as a Biblical template which he says was a fulfillment of Isaiah 9:10. 

JD: Well David from a Biblical prospective how would you respond to all of this, to Cahn's theories? 

DJ: Well first of all I would say I'm not at all against pause for prayer and repentance. America certainly needs the spiritual awakening and a revival. Because America is in serious trouble and everyday it feels like evil is gaining the upper hand and this is only intensified during this election year. The stakes are high for believers in this country and around the world. But Cahn's theories and this movement are built on an unbiblical foundation. Vows made by some Founding Fathers did not create a covenant relationship with God such that prophecies and promises of judgment and blessing made to Israel alone apply to America. And in order to convince people that his revelations of these mysteries were supposedly downloaded by God into his mind. Cahn grossly mishandles the word of God, misrepresents historical facts. He's not a prophet but unfortunately like QAnon there's enough truth and interesting coincidences to draw people in.

JD: David James explaining why the latest book from Jonathon Cahn is filled with Biblical problems. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

When I say the latest Cahn book is filled with Biblical problems I mean that the way the author perverts Biblical passages in his book do not fit into the proper method of Bible study and or interpretation. To know God's message in any and all passages of scripture the rules of interpretation must be followed or we miss God's message. 

The site of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem is a Jewish sacred site not an Islamic sacred site

Listen to Today's Program

JD: Let me ask you about supposedly this third most sacred spot that is to be in Jerusalem there at the Dome of the Rock supposedly the site where Muhammad rode his horse Buraq into the seventh heaven. Is it really truly a Muslim sacred spot the Dome of the Rock?

MH: As we know its been common practice for the Muslims from around the world but particularly in Israel we saw it. The sites that use to be Jewish religious sites were then adopted and the whole nature of the sites have been changed. So the Temple Mount which was Solomon's Temple stood within the second Temple stood for hundreds of years and was destroyed by the Romans. The Muslims came along 600 years later and decided to build a mosque on the site. The Muslims do see it as a religious site and they do tend to have the belief that its the third most religious site in Islam. 

The more important question is, is this just solely a Muslim religious site or does it have relevance and sanctity also for the Jews? The answer to that is 100 percent yes. This is a site which if you read literature from even from the Muslim Supreme Council in 1925 that describes the tourist walk around the Temple Mount and it says the identity of the site of Solomon's Temple is unequivocal. Now this is something which the Palestinians do not accept. They constantly use the term that this is the fake Temple, this is the invented Temple. They try to deny any type of Jewish history on the site, in the site when really they know that the only reason there is a mosque there, the only reason there is sanctity to the site is because it was built on the ruins of Solomon's Temple of the Jewish Temple.

JD: Maurice Hirsch with the details about the Dome of the Rock and its sacredness to the Jews and not the Muslims. 

We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

The report by Maurice gave us insight into a sacred piece of real estate on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem where the Dome of the Rock is located. That piece of real estate which belonged to Ornan the Jebusite was sold to King David as recorded in I Chronicles 21:18-30. Then King Solomon built a Temple on that site II Chronicles 3. Jesus will build the Messiah's Temple, the Millennial Temple on that same spot in the future, that's Zechariah 6:12.
