Psalm 83 and the Arab Spring

WEBVTT

1
00:00:02.439 --> 00:00:08.039
Looking at our world from a theological
perspective. This is the Theology Central podcast,

2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:16.160
making Theology Central. Someone make it
stop, please, someone make it

3
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:21.559
stop. It just won't stop.
I don't understand. I don't understand anymore.

4
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:27.519
I am confused, I am perplexed, I am confounded. I don't

5
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:34.079
understand. I don't understand anything.
And well that's probably bad since oh I'm

6
00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:38.200
doing a series trying to explain it. Oh wait, I'll explain it all

7
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:42.439
in just a minute. Just just
be patient. Good afternoon everyone. It

8
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:47.280
is Friday, July the twelfth,
twenty twenty four. It is currently three

9
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:51.880
thirty five pm Central Time, and
I am coming to you live from the

10
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:57.159
Theology Central studio located right here in
Abilene, Texas. And because it's Friday,

11
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:02.600
you know what that means, right, It's Friday. So right here

12
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:08.079
in the studio, my focus has
to really kind of change from podcasting and

13
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:11.200
the series we're working on and all
of that, and it has to kind

14
00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:15.760
of shift not from you know,
podcasting, but it has to shift to

15
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.959
what I'm going to be preaching and
teaching on Sunday. And if you've been

16
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.319
paying any attention, you know that
what we've been working on on Sunday is

17
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:29.599
PS eighty three. We have been
working, and there's a part of me

18
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:32.719
that, uh, there's a part
of me like how did I get myself

19
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:36.480
into this mess? Like how do
I get out of this? Just someone

20
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.079
make it stop. On one hand, I just kind of want to be

21
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:41.560
done. On the other hand,
I'm like, man, if I can

22
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:46.439
make it all the way to the
end, maybe I will have accomplished something.

23
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.680
I don't know. I think I've
given some very interesting points about some

24
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:52.719
many three. But I'm struggling.
But I've been sitting. I've been up

25
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:55.640
and down the steps like a lot
today because I have all kinds of things

26
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:57.920
I need to do downstairs. So
I've been helping downstairs, moving this,

27
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:01.040
doing this, putting this together,
doing all kinds of things like that.

28
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:05.959
I just I've got all kinds of
things to do. So in between doing

29
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:07.960
things, I keep running back up
the steps and I'll keep I keep coming

30
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:12.280
around right here to the microphone,
and I'm like, Okay, well what

31
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:14.520
do I do today? I need
to I need do I really want to

32
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.599
broadcast today? Well? We got
to kind of continue to do that work

33
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:20.199
on that. Well, that kind
of turned into a series on revival,

34
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.039
right, I need to do a
little work on that. And then we

35
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.360
started working on you know, lean
not to your own understanding, leaning wrong,

36
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.360
and we looked at Abraham and how
he leaned towards Egypt, or should

37
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:35.439
I say Abram how he leaned towards
Egypt. Well, maybe today we'll talk

38
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:38.719
about Lot leaning towards Sodom and how
he leaned towards Sodom. Okay, So

39
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:43.439
I started working on it, and
I started working on it, and then,

40
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.159
you know, one page of notes
turned into two page of notes,

41
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:50.240
and then turned into three pages,
and then turned into four pages, and

42
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.680
I think I have now five pages
of just all kinds of different you know,

43
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.960
thinking about it and trying to you
know, okay, well what about

44
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.919
this? Well I know this is
the way most people present, but maybe

45
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:05.199
maybe our preaching of this is completely
wrong. Maybe we should approach it from

46
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:08.240
this perspective. So I was kind
of create different hypotheses and then testing them,

47
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:13.159
and I'm like, Okay, that's
what I'm going to do. I

48
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:19.560
am going to do something on Lot
in Genesis chapter thirteen. That's what I'm

49
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:21.840
going to do because I need to. And then I'm like, but wait,

50
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.680
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, it's it's Friday.

51
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:28.000
You gotta, you gotta, you
gotta start moving your attention to saw eighty

52
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.599
three because you're going to be spending
two hours standing there behind a pulpit working

53
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.879
on saw eighty three. So I'm
like, what do I do? What

54
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.159
do I do? What do I
do? So I'm like, you know

55
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.280
what, just take a break,
take a break, went back downstairs,

56
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:43.520
came back upstairs, and I'm like, okay, let me just look at

57
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.800
my feed on the sermons two point
oh app I told everyone to, you

58
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:53.280
know, find twenty broadcasters and everyone
to monitor their feed. Remember I made

59
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:55.240
a big deal out of that.
So I'm like, well, since I'm

60
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:59.319
telling everyone to do that, let
me do that. So I opened up

61
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:02.599
and I looked at my feed,
the feed tab, right, I look

62
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:04.840
at my feed tab. I'm like, go all the way back to it,

63
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.080
because I opened up fifty things and
I pulled down and I'm like,

64
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:15.879
you gotta be kidding me. This
cannot be real. This cannot There's just

65
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:18.720
no way. And I just sat
there and I looked at it and I

66
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:23.079
just started shaking my head and I'm
like, this cannot be real. This

67
00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:26.839
cannot be in my feet. This
cannot be real. Who is messing with

68
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:30.959
me? Like someone is messing with
me. Someone is trying to drive me

69
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:34.040
to becoming an alcoholic. I can
they're trying to drive me to drink.

70
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:38.360
Okay, not literally, but it
feels like someone is messing with me.

71
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:41.120
It feels like it. They'm about
to knock my iPad completely off the table,

72
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:45.000
but it feels like it because this
is what I found. Remember,

73
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.360
way way back in a galaxy far
far, far, far far far away.

74
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:53.519
How one day I had to go
do a lot of running around Abilene,

75
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.720
Texas in my car, and so
I had to take people places and

76
00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:59.480
pick people up, and I'm doing
all these things. So I grabbed my

77
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:04.160
iPad and downloaded a bunch of random
sermons to participate in the Sermon's two point

78
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:09.800
oh app sermon challenge. I remember
one of those random sermons was The Coming

79
00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.439
Middle East War. And then when
I started playing it, I realized the

80
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:16.560
full title was PSAWM eighty three The
Coming Middle East War, and I was

81
00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:23.639
like, oh wait, what is
this? And that started this it seems

82
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:29.360
like never ending journey and dealing with
SSAW eighty three. And remember we reviewed

83
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:33.279
a bunch of things within that series, and it just got confusing and like

84
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:38.040
at times it really wasn't even about
SSAW eighty three. Some of the things

85
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:42.120
being said about SAW eighty three.
I not only where there's just not accurate.

86
00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:47.079
I just like just maddening stuff,
maddening stuff. So I'm like,

87
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:51.600
you gotta be well, obviously you
know where I'm going with this. I

88
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:56.240
opened up my Sermon's two point oh
app and went to my feedsapp and there

89
00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:01.959
it is Psalm eighty three, Part
thirty one, from the same ministry that

90
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:05.079
started all of this. Remember,
they changed the title from the Coming Middle

91
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:10.120
East War to just SAW eighty three, like Part twelve thirteen, fourteen fifteen.

92
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.680
I think they changed the title like
Part ten or Part eleven. And

93
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:19.279
now they're at part thirty one.
Ladies and Gentlemen, thirty one. I

94
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:27.519
am imploring you, I am begging
you to go listen to all thirty one

95
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:32.920
parts. You say why, it's
frustrated you, it's confused you, it's

96
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:38.439
confounded you. You've been somewhat irritated
by it at times I have. I'm

97
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:42.959
also been appreciative because they made me
relook at SAW eighty three and decide is

98
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.480
it a communal lament or is it
a precatory And I kind of apologize.

99
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:50.319
I think I'm kind of back that
even though they say it's in a precreatory,

100
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.720
I think it's a communal lament and
I think I can prove. I

101
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:56.519
think I can prove that. So, but we went back and forth on

102
00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:59.279
that. So I've been learning things. But the reason I want you to

103
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:03.279
listen to it is one because it's
the very thing that sparked all of this.

104
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:08.360
But two, I just want you
to hear for yourself, not with

105
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:13.639
my commentary, not with my analysis. I want you to hear all thirty

106
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:16.839
one parts for yourself. I want
you to process what's being said. I

107
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.600
want you to understand how does this
relate to Psalm eighty three. I want

108
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:24.879
you to hear how the text is
being handled. You can draw your own

109
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:29.319
conclusion. Forget what I have said. You draw your own conclusion. And

110
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:33.079
the reason I just look, maybe
I shouldn't be this way, but there

111
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:40.120
are times I listen to preaching or
teaching. I'm just gonna be honest with

112
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:44.439
you. There are times it impacts
me different ways. Sometimes I will listen

113
00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:48.000
to preaching and teaching like man,
they are such a good communicator. I

114
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:53.439
could never communicate as good as they
can. Wow, the way they handle

115
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:57.439
the text. Wow, I never
could be that good. But I'm gonna

116
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:03.120
be honest. There's other times I'm
like, wait a minute, that's that's

117
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:09.199
the sermon, that's that's what they're
doing. And they have a huge church

118
00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:13.879
in radio ministry, and they have
all kinds of people giving donations, and

119
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:18.439
they just brought in, you know, one hundred thousand dollars, like,

120
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:24.360
and I'll be like, what in
the world, Like, if that's what

121
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.439
people want, I just need to
retire. I just need to get I

122
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.360
can't because I refuse to be that. Like there's sometimes I'm just like,

123
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.000
not only can I not do that, I refuse to do that, And

124
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.600
if that's what people want, there's
no point in me even trying anymore.

125
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:41.639
Sometimes I get very discouraged. Right, Sometimes I may feel like, man,

126
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.240
I can never be that good,
but I can work harder, right,

127
00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:48.639
I could do better. I can
I could improve. And then there's

128
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:52.159
other times I'm like, well,
if that's what people want, just forget

129
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.440
it. Just and and a lot
of what people want to be honest with,

130
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:00.879
I just I refuse to provide.
I'm just not going to preach that

131
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:03.639
way, teach that way. I'm
just not But if that's what people want,

132
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:07.919
then there's no point. So sometimes
I get first with this series on

133
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.679
Saw eighty three, there's a part
of me just going what I I don't

134
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:13.600
even know what to do with it. So I was like, okay,

135
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:20.080
all right, thirty one parts,
I'm a little bit behind. I think

136
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.240
I'm back at like part twenty six. So I'm like, you know what,

137
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:26.320
I don't know what to do right
now. I need to do this

138
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:30.840
thing on lot and you know,
lean not to your own understanding, but

139
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.960
I need to be working on Saw
eighty three. So I looked up some

140
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:39.360
passages and saw or I looked up
some passages that are going to be relevant

141
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.639
to Saw eighty three in the Book
of Judges, and I'm like, Okay,

142
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.080
how do you say his name jereaball
or Okay, Okay, I think

143
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:46.440
I've got that. Wait, how
do I say that name? Okay?

144
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:48.200
Trying to make sure, Okay,
how much am I going to read from

145
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:52.200
Judges? Just trying to figure out
some of the logistics and how I'm going

146
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.679
to put it together. Okay,
wait do I ooh I could have a

147
00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:58.840
little section here on im precatory.
Okay, maybe I can do something with

148
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:03.279
that. So I'm just trying to
figure out how I'm going to approach it.

149
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:07.399
And then I'm like, you know, I'm not getting anything done.

150
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.240
All right, I know what I'll
do. Since I'm behind in this series.

151
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.639
Let me go back to part twenty
six and let me start listening.

152
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:20.480
And I started listening, and some
thing's there. Then I'm like, okay,

153
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:24.759
well, you know that's a good
point. That series. The pastor

154
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:28.759
behind that series is very much believed
that God promised land Israel, and Israel

155
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:33.639
will get that land. Okay,
we're in agreement there. I believe God

156
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:37.639
gave a promise to land for Israel, and that is physical land and it's

157
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:41.759
not to be spiritualized. So we're
in absolute agreement there. All right,

158
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.840
good, Okay, that's good.
But then he mentioned something and I think

159
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:52.679
this may be the second or third
time. I cannot if anyone listens to

160
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:56.320
all thirty one parts, you can
tell me how many times they mention it.

161
00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:05.080
They mentioned the Arab Spring, and
I'm like, why is this series

162
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:11.279
that's being put together In twenty twenty
four, continuing to mention the Arab Spring.

163
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.679
How was long with twenty ten twenty
eleven, I'm not understanding, And

164
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:18.519
what has that got to do with
Psalm eighty three, Like, I'm just

165
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.039
completely back and what does that got
to do with Israel? Like I'm completely

166
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:24.759
baffled by the whole thing. So
what I want to do is just play

167
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:31.120
a little section where the Arab spring
is gonna be mentioned. I know what

168
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.279
I want to do is just I'm
gonna look, I've stated it before,

169
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.519
some we've we've I think we have
driven this point into the ground. I

170
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:43.320
think I some people may say I'm
beating a dead horse, and I have

171
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.440
no desire to do that. But
the more preaching I continue to listen to

172
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:48.360
on Psawm eighty three, the more
I feel like I have to continue to

173
00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:52.799
repeat these issues. Psalm eighty three, Ladies and Gentlemen, is a I'm

174
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.519
gonna I even if you say it's
in a precatory song, whether you say

175
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:01.799
it's a precatory or whether you say
it's a lament. Psalm eighty three is

176
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:05.240
Acef the worship leader at the time
of David, maybe into the beginning of

177
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:11.440
the reign of Solomon. He is
expressing whether an imprecatory prayer or a lament

178
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:20.200
based off the situation that is happening. Right then, this is not prophetic,

179
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:26.519
it is it's a historical description of
what they were facing and the emotions

180
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:31.679
and the desires that were arising from
the situation they were facing at that time.

181
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.600
This is not talking about some incoming
Middle East war. This is talking

182
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:39.919
about what was going on at the
time. No one has come even anywhere

183
00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:43.080
close to trying to make a argument
otherwise. The best we got is someone

184
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.919
try to connect it to Second Chronicles
twenty and then they made ridiculous comment that

185
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.320
basically Acef was alive at the time, which is just not true. So

186
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:54.840
then we're like, okay, you
know what, No, this is describing

187
00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:58.960
what was happening at that very moment. It's a present tense problem. It's

188
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:07.600
not prophetic, all right. So
so I I have to repeat that a

189
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:11.799
million times. That's what's going on. But somehow in this discussion about p

190
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:16.600
SSAW eighty three, the Arab spring
is going to be mentioned. So I

191
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:20.000
just want to drive that point home. That's what it's about, all right

192
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:26.320
now. I'm trying my best at
on Sundays in my you know, two

193
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:30.360
hours of preaching each Sunday, trying
to demonstrate a way to make it somewhat

194
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:35.440
applicable to us. And I think
I've done so at using the text.

195
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:37.279
Now the next part of it's going
to fall completely apart. I think it's

196
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.440
going to fall completely apart. But
we will. We will get there when

197
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:45.519
we get there, all right,
so what we will see. But in

198
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.519
the meantime, let's go listen to
this and just keep in your mind.

199
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:54.039
Saw eighty three is not describing anything
future. It's describing what was going on

200
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.759
at that time. All right.
I don't I almost feel exhausted. But

201
00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:01.480
let's let's see what happens. Are
you right? Are you ready to hear

202
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:05.960
what happens? Now? I just
kind of stop this, like it's right

203
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:09.399
in the middle. I think he
just I think what he just finished talking

204
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:15.799
about was he was talking about how
Muslims don't you know, Islam doesn't recognize

205
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:18.639
Israel, that in some of their
schools they remove Israel from the map,

206
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:22.879
and they hate Israel, and so
he was saying kind of negative things,

207
00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:24.840
and he said, well, some
people may be saying to me, you

208
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:26.879
better not say that, or they'll
kill you. And he was like,

209
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.720
well, so what, You'll just
send me to heaven all right, and

210
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.159
that and I'll be ruling and reigning
with Christ. And so he kind of

211
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:37.600
goes in that direction. Okay,
great, wonderful, all right. It's

212
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:41.840
kind of weird, like sometimes Christians
will say, well, if they kill

213
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:43.360
me, so what, I'll just
go to heaven. And then the next

214
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.159
minute they're saying, oh wait,
wait, wait, wait, maybe all

215
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.639
Christians in this building, but we're
going to make sure we have a security

216
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.200
team with guns because if someone comes
and try to kill us, we're gonna

217
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.279
take them. Now. Wait,
they would just be sending you to heaven.

218
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:58.480
I thought that would be wonderful,
right, Okay, So Christians so

219
00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:03.320
weird. Like one time it's like
God, nobody can hurt me because God

220
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.399
is protecting me. But I have
locked doors and guns. Wait a minute,

221
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:09.000
Wait a minute, I don't need
any protection because the worst you can

222
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.000
do is send me to heaven.
But wait a minute, I'm gonna have

223
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:15.559
a gun and a locked door.
It's it's sometimes this weird contradiction. But

224
00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:20.320
let's see where he's gonna go.
I think it's only gonna be like maybe

225
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:22.960
quickly. I think he's gonna it's
gonna get weird because, well, at

226
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:26.960
least to me, because I think
we're gonna end up talking about Russia.

227
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:33.480
What has that got to do with
PSA eighty three and then the Arab spring

228
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:35.679
Let's see, let's see, maybe
I misheard it. We're getting ready to

229
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:46.000
find out. But now many of
their leaders in various lands have stated these

230
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:52.720
things. I've just said. That's
not an accusation, that is not just

231
00:15:52.759 --> 00:16:00.279
a thought or an opinion. That's
what their own leaders have said. Aad

232
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:07.480
Henry Morse, doctor Henry Morse,
who's now with the Lord, made this

233
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:14.720
statement on this passage in Psalms eighty
three. He said, the prophecy primarily

234
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:23.919
applies to the end times, since
their defeat will be forever, as it

235
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:37.039
states in verse seventeen, it will
end with these Muslim nations acknowledging Jehovah as

236
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:49.759
supreme over the earth. Once again, it's not prophetic, it's describing what's

237
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:56.200
going on at that time. And
even when you and even that reading from

238
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:00.879
Henry Morris, Okay, let me
go. So starting in thirteen, asaff

239
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.119
cries out to God, you could
call this in somewhat of inn a precatory

240
00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:08.480
section, see God, to bring
destruction upon these people, bring judgment upon

241
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.440
these people. You could argue that
it's somewhat poetic and maybe hyperbolic, because

242
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:15.480
it doesn't sound like he wants them
completely destroyed, because he wants this,

243
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:19.640
all these things to happen to them. Look at verse sixteen. Fill their

244
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:25.200
faces with shame, that they may
seek your name, O Lord, that

245
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:30.599
they hey, do this so that
they may seek that you. Obviously they

246
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:33.799
have to still be in existence to
seek, right, Okay, So so

247
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.160
that kind of shows their desire,
which again to me, is not so

248
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:41.000
much your preconatory. That sounds more
like a lament. Hey, But in

249
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:42.359
a lament you're crying out, Hey, we want you to do something,

250
00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:45.759
but we really want you to do
it so that they will seek God.

251
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:49.279
Let them be confounded and dismayed forever. Yes, let them be put to

252
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:55.240
shame and perish, that they may
know that you, whose name alone is

253
00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:59.079
the Lord, are the most high. This is not prophesying. This is

254
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:02.519
saying, Lord, do this so
that this may happen. I don't know

255
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:07.160
why everyone keeps saying that this is
a prophecy about some coming Middle East war.

256
00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:14.920
I don't understand we have. We
have taken this text apart. We've

257
00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:18.480
gone forward backwards, we've turned it
upside down, we've turned it to the

258
00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:22.240
left, to the right, we've
we've flipped it over. We've done everything

259
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.119
and there I and every single time
when we listen to any message about this,

260
00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:30.680
it's just it's always asserted as a
dogmatic fact. This is a coming

261
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:36.640
Middle East war? What are you
talking that? These so so it's a

262
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:41.680
coming war with Muslim nations who are
coming against Israel prophetically somewhere in the future.

263
00:18:44.319 --> 00:18:49.279
No, no, no, let's
anybody have Asaf's phone number, because

264
00:18:49.279 --> 00:18:52.519
if we could call him, I
know we can't, but if we could

265
00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:55.000
call him, Asaf would be like, what are you talking about? That

266
00:18:55.200 --> 00:19:00.200
was my lament, That was my
precatory prayer because we were facing us her

267
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:03.200
horrible situation at the time of either
in the life of David or maybe the

268
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:12.400
beginning of the reign of Solomon somewhere
around that time. But I okay,

269
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:17.200
but all right, so now so
it's Muslim nations. Now all sudden,

270
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:25.319
Russia is gonna come involved. This
is just watch what happens. Hey think

271
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:30.599
about that. The Bible says that's
going to happen. I don't care who

272
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:33.119
you are, what kind of a
Christian you say you are, or whoever

273
00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:37.640
you say you are, how intelligent
you think you are. If God says

274
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:40.640
that's what's going to happen, and
he does, that is going to happen.

275
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:45.839
Now, that doesn't have to happen
before the rapture, but it can

276
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:52.799
take place, and very well it
can take place. There's nothing saying that

277
00:19:52.880 --> 00:20:03.400
it won't happen before the rapture.
We already see the Russian Coalition prophesiede twenty

278
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:11.960
six hundred years ago. Those nations. Now I'm completely confused. It's Muslim

279
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:18.200
nations now Russian nation? What now
Russia is involved? When did Russia become

280
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:22.359
a Muslim nation? I don't I
don't get this. So now he's going

281
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:26.920
to go to a prophecy about Russia. But ASAU eighty three is not about

282
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:30.400
Russia, there's no way to make
it about Russia. So is he is

283
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.480
he saying there's going to be Is
he saying there's going to be a Russian

284
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:37.920
invasion or war and there's going to
be a war with Muslim nations? There's

285
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:48.720
two future wars? Is that the
direction he's going have never been together like

286
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:55.519
they seem to be coming together today. And this Ukraine mess and all of

287
00:20:55.559 --> 00:21:07.319
that that will change when the Tribulation
has the Russian Coalition coming down. You'll

288
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:12.680
find that in the Book of Ezekio, chapter thirty eight, we see these

289
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:26.000
nations this around Israel, getting consensus
with their Arab spring against Israel. We

290
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:36.519
see these Arab nations with a consensus
against Israel in their Arab spring. Okay,

291
00:21:36.519 --> 00:21:38.079
I'm going to back that up just
a little bit. Okay, I

292
00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:41.920
want you to hear that exactly.
Okay, here we go. Let's back

293
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:49.200
this up. Fourteen southeast thirty sixth
Avenue. Okay, I don't know what

294
00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:52.960
just happened. All right, let's
see if we can find this here,

295
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:56.319
right, I don't know. My
timer thing here is doing weird things.

296
00:21:56.400 --> 00:21:59.880
We'll find this spot. It may
take me a minute. Just be patient.

297
00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:03.839
Coming to this earth. Okay,
four wars come to this earth that

298
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:11.000
the Bible identifies. Okay, that's
not it. Let's see if we can

299
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.079
get back a little further here.
If we can get back a little further

300
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:22.559
right, let's see if this is
it. Go. Those nations have never

301
00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:30.240
been together like they seem to be
coming together today, and this Ukraine mess

302
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:41.079
and all of that that will change
when the Tribulation has the Russian coalition coming

303
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:45.960
down. You'll find that in the
Book of Ezekiel, chapter thirty eight.

304
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:59.119
We see these nations this around Israel
getting consensus with their air spring against Israel

305
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:07.880
to actually attack them. And God
told us in Psalms eighty three, three

306
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:18.960
thousand years ago that this day was
coming, and he named the people the

307
00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:22.960
Arabs. He's connecting this to the
Arab Spring. Well, that's first of

308
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:29.279
all, that's not today. Let's
do everybody ready to take a little class

309
00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:33.599
on the Arab Spring. Everybody ready, Okay. Now, I'm not going

310
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:36.640
to say by no means am I
an expert on the Arab spring, not

311
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:41.160
even close. But I do know
this. At the time of the Arab

312
00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:45.720
Spring, I was broadcasting in some
ways it almost felt like twenty four hours

313
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:49.240
a day around the clock at that
time because I'd kind of fallen into this

314
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:53.599
thing that you know, I kind
of do a news program from a Christian

315
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:56.279
perspective. It never really was my
intention to kind of turn into what it

316
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:00.480
turned into, but it kind of
spiraled out of control and next thing,

317
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:03.000
you know, I'm basically not sleeping, and I'm working full time job in

318
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:07.480
the military and a full time pastor, and I'm of like a full time

319
00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:11.359
news broadcaster. Was very detrimental to
me spiritually because I wasn't even focusing really

320
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:15.599
on spiritual things. But at that
time, man I was broadcasting and talking

321
00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:22.599
about the Arab Spring frequently constantly.
All right, so if you don't know,

322
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:30.400
the Arab Spring was a series of
pro democracy protests and uprisings that began

323
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:37.960
in twenty ten and twenty eleven across
the Middle East and North Africa. Please

324
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:42.279
note twenty ten, twenty eleven.
Now he's saying they're coming together in their

325
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:47.000
Arab Spring today. Now it's not
today. It was twenty ten, twenty

326
00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:49.920
eleven, and they were coming together
to attack Israel. Is that what the

327
00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:56.759
Arab Spring was about. It was
a pro democracy protest. Now, these

328
00:24:56.799 --> 00:25:03.559
movements challenged and trenched a oritarian regimes
in the region. And here are some

329
00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:07.519
of the key points. The origins
and trigger the Arab Springs started when protests

330
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:14.440
in Tunisian Egypt led to the downfall
of their respective regimes. The spark came

331
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.440
from the self immolation of a Tunisian
street vendor. He burned himself alive.

332
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:25.720
And the reason he did this he
was protesting mistreatment by local officials. So

333
00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:30.599
he was getting upset about these how
he'd been treated. He burns about mistreatment

334
00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:36.000
by local officials. He burns himself
alive. Self immolation, all right,

335
00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:40.480
a sacrifice usually by fire if you
want it like a technical definition. All

336
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:44.880
right, that kind of sparks all
of this. Now. Inspired by Tunisia

337
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:49.359
and Egypt, similar movements emerged in
other Arab countries. People express political and

338
00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:56.079
economic grievance, demanding greater freedoms,
human rights, and democratic reforms. Please

339
00:25:56.119 --> 00:26:00.799
note they were demanding greater freedom,
human rights, and democratic reforms. What

340
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:04.400
has that got to do with this
Israel? The way he's describing it,

341
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:08.359
I don't I don't even understand.
Okay. Now, While some countries saw

342
00:26:08.440 --> 00:26:15.000
successful regime changes, like Tunisia,
others faced violent crackdowns by security forces.

343
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:18.599
Not all movements achieved their goal of
increased democracy and cultural freedom. For instant,

344
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:23.920
Libya experience civil war and serious uprising
turned into a prolonged conflict, and

345
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:29.359
some read the Arab Spring was a
complex and transformative period with variant outcomes,

346
00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:33.640
but it highlighted the desire for change
and democratic progress in the region. Please

347
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:38.960
note in that entire description looked up
for many, many sources, all compiled

348
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:48.200
together. Guess what. Guess what
wasn't mentioned there Israel? That does not

349
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:52.720
sound like PSAW eighty three. They
will come together to try to fight against

350
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:59.680
authoritarian regimes and to try to find
democratic reform and find personal freedom and human

351
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:02.880
rights. That is not what PSAWM
eighty three has to say. There's nothing

352
00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:06.359
to do with the Arab Spring.
So then I was like, Okay,

353
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:08.400
let me do a little research here
because I was like, well, during

354
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:12.880
the Arab Spring, how did Israel? How was Israel impacted? So again,

355
00:27:12.960 --> 00:27:18.759
gathering from a numerous sources, Israel
faced significant challenges and concerns during the

356
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:26.680
Arab Spring. There was concern initially
Israel leaders. Israeli leaders worried that the

357
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:33.640
uprisings might empower Islamist groups, leading
to instability and potential potential threats to Israel

358
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:37.680
security. Hey, if some of
these leaders fall, then there may just

359
00:27:37.759 --> 00:27:41.519
come a power vacuum in some of
these nations and countries and it could lead

360
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:45.240
to a little bit of chaos.
And what will happen While you're fighting for,

361
00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:48.720
say, democratic reform, you're trying
to fight for human rights. Once

362
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.880
you topple the government, now you
have a power vacuum. And then these

363
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:56.920
groups, many of them will be
Islamic groups that will very much try to

364
00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:00.880
take over, which will then only
bring back act much more of a you

365
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:07.880
know, Islamic Sharia law type government, which then ultimately could be in play

366
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:11.119
negatively for Israel. And I discussed
all of this at that time, all

367
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:18.079
the potential concerns. Now the impact
was more like this. The Arab Spring

368
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:22.799
did lead to systemic changes in the
Middle East, but and some of them

369
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:26.680
were negative. We cannot deny that. For example, the Muslim Brotherhood gained

370
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:32.640
power in Egypt, and Jahadis groups
emerged in Syria, ISRAELI. Israel's relationship

371
00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:37.279
with some Arab nations worsened. So
there was some negative things that happened,

372
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:44.079
But there wasn't like this confederacy of
Arab nations because of their Arab Spring.

373
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:52.440
None of this is PSAW eighty three. But here's what's interesting in hindsight,

374
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:59.799
if you look back now, Israel
emerged really as a winner. The regions

375
00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:06.079
die dynamics shifted and Israel's security interests
were actually better preserved before well it was

376
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:08.279
all said and done. Now we
ultimately know what happened on October seventh,

377
00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:14.440
but ultimately from the Arab Spring there
was there was actually things improved for a

378
00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:17.720
period of time. So when we
talk about the Arab Spring, it's more

379
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:22.920
it's better to understand. It's a
complex story. But the headlines today tell

380
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:26.359
a different tell than a decade ago. In other words, when we kind

381
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:30.599
of look back, we we can
kind of look at it now and get

382
00:29:30.599 --> 00:29:33.680
a better understanding of it. At
the time, yeah, there was grave

383
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.640
concern. Wait a minute, Okay, I know, I know we're saying

384
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:41.319
these people want democracy, and maybe
they do, but they may end up

385
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:45.920
with unintended consequences. You get rid
of that leader. Who's gonna take its

386
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:48.599
place? Is it going to be
the Muslim Brotherhood? Is it gonna is

387
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.400
gonna be other Jihadis groups? Okay, we all. I discussed all of

388
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:59.680
that. It felt like every day
for for months, over and over.

389
00:29:59.759 --> 00:30:00.920
No, and I would be like, okay, now we have protests in

390
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:03.880
this country. All right, everyone
pull out their maps, mark this place.

391
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:07.400
Oh we have another protest here.
Now here's what you need to know.

392
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:11.799
As if they topple that governmental leader. Here are the groups that will

393
00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:15.680
try to take power within that country, and then I would name the groups.

394
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:19.039
It would be the Muslim brotherhood or
this group or this Jahadish group,

395
00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:22.559
and we try to discuss it.
Now. If that happens, now you

396
00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:26.240
see where Israel could be in trouble. There was lots of discussions about that,

397
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:30.400
but it did not play out anyway. Definitely did not play out the

398
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:37.599
way he just described. And the
main thing I want to say, none

399
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:41.400
of the thing that happened in the
air of Spring sounds like this. All

400
00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:45.960
right, okay, none of this
sounds like this. Are you ready?

401
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:48.680
PSAWM eighty three. Do not keep
silent, Oh God, do not hold

402
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:52.599
your peace, and do not be
still, Oh God, For behold,

403
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:55.640
your enemies make a tumult, and
those who hate you have lifted up their

404
00:30:55.680 --> 00:30:57.960
heads. They have taken crafty counsel
against you, I guess your people,

405
00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:02.480
and consulted together against your sheltered ones. They have said, come, let

406
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:04.920
us cut them off from being a
nation, that the name of Israel may

407
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.759
be remembered no more. For they
have consulted together with one consent, they

408
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:14.720
form a confederacy. Against you.
That is not the Arab Spring. That

409
00:31:14.839 --> 00:31:25.000
has nothing to do with the Arab
Spring. All right, I'm gonna pack

410
00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:27.359
it up and we can finish this
up. Now. I know some of

411
00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:30.279
you like, well, you're just
making a big deal out of it.

412
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:33.160
I'm not. It's a big deal
because I don't. Look, you can

413
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.720
people can be wrong. All Look, you can have forget opinions. You

414
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:42.559
can have your own alternative facts about
what happened in the Arab Spring. You

415
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:47.640
can write your own story about it. Okay, right, fine, But

416
00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:52.000
here's the thing. Leave Psaw eighty
three out of it. That is my

417
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:55.960
issue. Okay, I'm gonna back
this up a little further. Let's see

418
00:31:55.960 --> 00:32:00.240
hopefully this isn't messed up here we
go pure no for you that have been

419
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:06.759
listening maybe following the last few days
on this, as I said, okay,

420
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:08.599
it's weird. Every time I back
it up, it does this weird

421
00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:12.400
stuff. Or let's see if we
can get right back to where we were.

422
00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:22.559
Hopefully this is it day and this
Ukraine mess and all of that that

423
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:30.720
will change when the Tribulation has the
Russian Coalition coming down. You'll find that

424
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:38.200
in the Book of Ezekiel, chapter
thirty eight. We see these nations this

425
00:32:38.359 --> 00:32:50.799
around Israel getting consensus with their Arab
Spring against Israel to actually attack them.

426
00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:58.960
And God told us in Psalms eighty
three, three thousand years ago that this

427
00:32:59.480 --> 00:33:07.720
day what's coming, and he named
the people, he named the land,

428
00:33:08.079 --> 00:33:16.640
and it's beginning to come to pass. Psalm eighty three was not predicting the

429
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:22.240
Arab spring in twenty ten and twenty
eleven. Now what happened in twenty ten

430
00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:25.200
and eleven, and the Arab Spring
has nothing to do with whatever you think

431
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:30.599
is starting to happen in twenty twenty
four. Now you're seeing it, the

432
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:34.640
Arab spring. We'll now we're in
twenty twenty four. And now you're saying

433
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:37.680
psaalw eighty three is prophescing what is
happening now. No, psaw MANI three

434
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:50.119
was describing what was happening then at
the time of ACEF. Now there are

435
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:54.119
four wars coming to this earth.
Okay, four wars come to this earth

436
00:33:54.319 --> 00:34:04.119
that the Bible identifies for us.
There may be many more wars, but

437
00:34:04.240 --> 00:34:16.480
the Bible speaks of four of these
wars. And someone please write these down,

438
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:22.440
all right, because look, this
is worth see. Even though I

439
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:28.000
may be strongly frustrated and strongly disagreeing
with, especially with the Arab spring thing

440
00:34:28.039 --> 00:34:30.280
that just drove drove me. And
that's when I heard it. I haven't

441
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:34.000
heard this part yet because I stopped
it with the Arab spring stuff, knowing

442
00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:37.199
I had to talk about it,
all right, But here's what I want

443
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:38.880
you to do. He's gonna name. He says, there's four wars.

444
00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:44.239
There may be more, but there's
four specific wars that are coming. Four

445
00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:46.360
we want to write down and see
if we can. And we may want

446
00:34:46.360 --> 00:34:51.119
to make this like we may this
may end up turning into, you know,

447
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:58.000
another series where we where we look
at these four possible wars and see

448
00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:01.840
if they are. If he's thinkings
three it is one of those wars,

449
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:05.639
we can go ahead and throw that
one out. Because Saw eighty three is

450
00:35:05.639 --> 00:35:09.480
describing what happened, then it is
not prophetic. There's been no textual proof

451
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:15.960
even hinted at to show me that
this is a prophetic psalm, and not

452
00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:20.599
either in a precatory prayer about what
was happening at the time or a communal

453
00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:22.599
lament about what was happening at the
time. But let's get these four wars

454
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:25.679
now, I'm fascinated on this part
right. See, this is why we

455
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:29.679
listen to different sermons. We may
disagree with a good portion of it,

456
00:35:29.880 --> 00:35:34.880
but we still may be then challenged
to consider something that we've never considered before.

457
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:39.440
I think I know one of those
wars. Maybe I don't. Let's

458
00:35:39.480 --> 00:35:43.000
see. I think maybe I know
where he's going. But let's see where

459
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:49.920
he's going to go. And I'm
going to go from fourth to first when

460
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:54.440
I do this. So be listening
next time when we start right here now

461
00:35:55.440 --> 00:35:59.199
for you that have been listening maybe
following the last few days on this.

462
00:35:59.320 --> 00:36:02.719
As I said, I did this
series back in twenty eleven with much,

463
00:36:02.880 --> 00:36:13.239
much, much research, checking things
from around the world, ladies and gentlemen,

464
00:36:13.280 --> 00:36:16.280
I think we just figured out what
happened. The reason he has mentioned

465
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:22.679
the Arab spring so many times he's
using his notes from two thousand and eleven.

466
00:36:24.119 --> 00:36:28.320
Now, Lead. I have stated
this over and over and over for

467
00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:35.079
any pastor, for any preacher,
your old notes are useless and the present

468
00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:43.239
you should burn your notes past notes
used in the present, bring your past

469
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:47.119
mistakes into the present. The only
way to get rid of those past mistakes

470
00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:52.360
and correct those past mistakes is to
never use your notes from the past,

471
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:57.840
but always start over, always start
brand new. The reason he's mentioning the

472
00:36:57.880 --> 00:37:00.880
Arab Spring that way is because he
was doing this in two thousand and eleven.

473
00:37:01.280 --> 00:37:04.960
Well, I'm sorry, it's twenty
twenty four. You know, the

474
00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:07.599
Arab Spring did not lead to anything
that you even hinted at or mentioned.

475
00:37:07.719 --> 00:37:19.079
None of that happened, and made
sure that there were no contradictions with the

476
00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:22.559
word of God. But what I
want you to see is, as I

477
00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:27.559
said three thousand years ago, we
see these things being prophesied. We see

478
00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:31.800
things coming to pass that God prophesied
long ago. My friend, are you

479
00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:37.440
ready to meet the Lord? Can
you give me a Bible reason why you

480
00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:40.000
know that if you died today that
Heaven would be your home. This is

481
00:37:40.039 --> 00:37:45.079
your radio pastor, pastor, and
all right, well, well you know

482
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:49.159
what we need to do. Class. We have a new assignment for our

483
00:37:49.199 --> 00:37:53.320
Psalm eighty three. Ladies and gentlemen. You need to go find this series

484
00:37:53.400 --> 00:37:57.719
on Psalm eighty three, and you
need to start in part twenty seven.

485
00:37:58.320 --> 00:38:01.400
You need to listen to twenty seven, nine thirty and thirty one. I

486
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:04.599
told you to go back to the
beginning and listen to all of it right

487
00:38:04.599 --> 00:38:07.639
now, just forget that start in
twenty seven, and we need to find

488
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:10.880
out the four wars. He's going
to start with number four, go to

489
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:14.400
three, go to two, and
go to one. We need to find

490
00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:16.920
any scripture reference he gives. We
need to outline what are the four wars,

491
00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:21.119
what are the scripture references, and
then we're going to have to then

492
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:27.280
take each one basically as a hypothesis. He's hypothesizing that this is the fourth

493
00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:29.280
war, this is the third,
this is the second, this is the

494
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:32.719
first, and then we will test
those hypotheses and see if we can either

495
00:38:34.199 --> 00:38:38.000
confirm or deny, because if there's
four coming wars, we want to know

496
00:38:38.039 --> 00:38:43.199
not only what those wars are,
what to look out for those wars and

497
00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:49.920
when may they occur? All right, I think that's good now, So

498
00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:52.360
here let me give you the information. So what you need to do is

499
00:38:52.400 --> 00:39:00.199
you need to look for Central Baptist
Church, Central Baptist Church speaker's doctor Andy

500
00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:05.119
Bloom, and you need to find
his series on Psalm eighty three. You

501
00:39:05.159 --> 00:39:07.159
need to look for part twenty.
You need to download if you can either

502
00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:09.639
download it if you need to listen
to it, offline or you can just

503
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:15.400
stream it part twenty seven, twenty
eight, twenty nine, thirty and thirty

504
00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:20.119
one. Now, if he covers
those four before you get to thirty one,

505
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:22.039
great, But considering the way he's
done this, it may go all

506
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:25.320
the way to part thirty one.
We need to identify what the four wars

507
00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:30.000
are, We need to identify everything
he says about them. Just kind of

508
00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:34.199
consider that what he's saying is his
hypotheses. Okay, who is the war

509
00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:37.679
with? When is the war supposed
to occur? What should we be looking

510
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:44.039
for? What nations are involved?
And what scriptures clearly outline it. That's

511
00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:46.039
kind of what we need. Who
where like the who, what where when

512
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:50.800
how kind of concept and the scripture? The who what, where, when

513
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:53.000
how? And the scripture that's kind
of what we need to do. Then

514
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:59.320
we will Then what we will do
is we may then break this off because

515
00:39:59.320 --> 00:40:00.800
I don't think it SAW eighty three
has anything to do with any of that.

516
00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:04.639
Right, I'm just gonna I'm just
gonna forget that he's even now if

517
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:07.000
he says SAW eighty three is one
of the coming wars, We're going to

518
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:09.440
just ignore that. We're going to
just go ahead and say that we've done

519
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:14.760
enough work that we can already disregard
that hypothesis. But I will listen to

520
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:17.679
any argument that he puts forth because
I got no problem. I've already come

521
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:21.679
on here once and kind of basically
said I was wrong, maybe that it

522
00:40:21.719 --> 00:40:24.079
isn't a preparatory sum. Now that
i've I'm kind of going back and forth,

523
00:40:24.159 --> 00:40:27.280
but I got no problem coming back
going no, I was wrong.

524
00:40:27.320 --> 00:40:29.719
It is prophetic and it is a
future war. So we'll see how he

525
00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:31.679
explains it. But now we got
to Now we got a challenge in front

526
00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:35.719
of us. I just wanted to
talk about the Arab Spring because I don't

527
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:40.360
want other Christians having a very confused
perspective. But I now understand why his

528
00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:45.440
perspective was a little flawed because he's
basing it off what was going on in

529
00:40:45.480 --> 00:40:50.280
twenty eleven. He's using his old
nodes instead of taking five seconds to do

530
00:40:50.320 --> 00:40:52.280
a little research, going, well, how did that all turn out?

531
00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:59.559
How did the Arab spring actually turn
out? Well, not the way you

532
00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:04.000
were discs And I guarantee you this. It obviously wasn't SSAW eighty three.

533
00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:09.519
So either the Arab Spring was PSAW
eighty three, or the Arab Spring had

534
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:13.199
nothing to do with p SAW eighty
three, because now we're in twenty twenty

535
00:41:13.239 --> 00:41:15.599
four. Now he's saying, well, now now we're seeing it come together.

536
00:41:15.639 --> 00:41:17.920
Well, I thought you were saying
it was we were seeing it coming

537
00:41:17.920 --> 00:41:22.079
together in twenty eleven. Now it's
coming together in twenty twenty four. Well,

538
00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:28.239
then it has nothing then disconnected from
the Arab Spring. But he says

539
00:41:28.239 --> 00:41:30.719
there's four coming wars. There could
be more, but there's at least four.

540
00:41:31.639 --> 00:41:35.519
The who, what, where?
When? How? That's your job,

541
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:40.039
that's our job. We're never gonna
well, but we're going to separate

542
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:44.320
these four wars out of PSAWM eighty
three. So anything he connects to Samiti

543
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:46.920
three, we're just going to disregard
unless something happens. And I changed my

544
00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:52.599
mind. All right, Now,
if you're convinced this PSAW eighty three is

545
00:41:52.679 --> 00:41:57.519
prophetic, well then by all means
you can you can argue your hypotheses.

546
00:41:57.559 --> 00:42:00.639
I'm willing to listen to it.
But this point I'm just getting confused.

547
00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:06.840
So now we can kind of understand
why he's mentioned the Arab Spring multiple times,

548
00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:10.000
Because it was twenty eleven, there
was all this stuff happening in the

549
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:15.599
Middle East, and he decided that
saw Mati three prophesied it didn't quite work

550
00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:19.599
out. So now we're in twenty
twenty four, and now Samiti three is

551
00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:22.440
prophesying what's going on today because the
twenty eleven thing didn't work out for you,

552
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:28.440
I mean, and now because of
what happened in Gaza and what's going

553
00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:32.239
on in Gaza Okay, the Palestinians, all of the you know, Hamas

554
00:42:32.360 --> 00:42:37.880
and all of the different things.
Now, see, every time something happens

555
00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:42.119
over there, people want to start
saying, well, a fulfillment of a

556
00:42:42.199 --> 00:42:45.639
prophecy. Well, and then nothing
happened. Done, Well, nothing happens

557
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:49.400
until we just wait till the next
time. That's what it feels like.

558
00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:52.559
But who knows. I don't know
where it's going to ultimately go, but

559
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:54.840
I am interested. So please look
it up. If you cannot find it,

560

email me NEWSI fitt Yahoo dot com. News I f at yahoo dot

561
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:05.199
com. So your weekend is going
to be filled with Psalm eighty three.

562
00:43:05.199 --> 00:43:08.039
What No, Actually, it's going
to be filled with four coming wars.

563
00:43:09.519 --> 00:43:13.159
Right somewhere in your house. You
should have a big white board and you

564
00:43:13.199 --> 00:43:15.840
should have your whole family there saying
all right, ladies, here's the four

565
00:43:15.840 --> 00:43:19.559
wars? Who, what, where? When? How? In the scripture

566
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:23.119
reference. All right, I know
your kids are going to be like,

567
00:43:23.320 --> 00:43:27.039
do what I No, we're not
doing that. Okay, right, but

568
00:43:27.280 --> 00:43:30.719
probably everybody in your family would say
stop listening to that stupid podcast. But

569
00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:35.599
all right, there you go,
there's your assignment. What I have to

570
00:43:35.639 --> 00:43:38.000
do is not allow this to distract
me from what I need to do,

571
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:42.199
which is actually work on Saw Maity
three. So now I'm gonna want to

572
00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:45.039
go to church on Sunday and go
and we're going to look at four wars

573
00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:47.000
that have nothing to do with saw
Maity three while we're in the middle of

574
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:50.880
Saw eighty three. Yeah. I
can't do that, but I'm going to

575
00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:53.480
be very tempted to do that.
All right, We'll see. All right,
