Transcript

Caption transcript for “A Vision of Things To Come”

00:07 BRETHERN, MY HEART'S DESIRE AND PRAYER TO GOD FOR ISRAEL IS THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED
00:13 FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE JEW AND THE GENTILE
00:16 FOR THE SAME LORD OVER ALL IS RICH UNTO ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM.
00:25 WITH SANDRA LEVITT AND DR. JEFFREY SEIF
00:31 A HEARTY SHALOM TO ALL OF YOU.
00:33 JEFFREY SEIF HERE WITH MY FRIEND SANDRA LEVITT.
00:36 SHALOM AND WELCOME TO ZOLA LEVITT PRESENTS.
00:39 IT'S THE YEAR END PROGRAM WHERE WE TAKE A LOOK BACK
00:43 WHAT WE'VE DONE,
00:44 WE TALK ABOUT IT
00:45 AND WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHERE WE'RE GOING TO GO NEXT YEAR.
00:48 ONE OF THE SERIES WE DID WAS ON DANIEL AND THE PROPHECY THAT DANIEL HAD.
00:52 JEFF DID SOME WONDERFUL TEACHING AT KORAZIM AND CAESAREA.
00:57 HERE IS JEFF.
01:36 ANGER IN GAZA.
01:37 WAR IN LEBANON
01:39 RUMBLINGS IN IRAN
01:40 AS THE WORLD FOCUSES ON THE MIDEAST QUAGMIRE, ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES PRESENTS
02:00 AND DANIEL WENT INTO HIS HOUSE
02:02 AND HIS WINDOWS BEING OPENED IN HIS CHAMBER TOWARD JERUSALEM
02:05 HE KNEELED UPON HIS KNEES THREE TIMES A DAY AND PRAYED
02:10 AND GAVE THANKS BEFORE HIS GOD AS HE DID AFORETIME.
02:20 DRIVING TO THE ANCIENT SYNAGOGUE AT KORAZIM
02:22 I WAS REMINDED THAT GOING TO A PLACE FOR CORPORATE PRAYER
02:25 MUST BE COMPLEMENTED BY MAKING A PRIVATE PLACE FOR PERSONAL PRAYER.
02:34 IT'S SOMETHING OF A STORMY DAY IN NORTHERN ISRAEL
02:37 BUT THESE ARE PORTENTS OF THINGS TO COME FOR OUR PURPOSES
02:40 AS WE LOOK AT "DANIEL AND THE LAST DAYS' BATTLE FOR PLANET EARTH."
02:54 CIVILIZATIONS COLLIDED IN THE ANCIENT WORLD
02:58 AS TODAY, NATIONS LIFT SWORDS AGAINST NATIONS
03:03 WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS ABOUND.
03:07 LOOKING AT THE WORLD THROUGH DANIEL'S PROPHECIES
03:11 WE LEARNED HOW AS THE BATTLE RAGES ON
03:13 GOD STILL WATCHES OVER AND PROTECTS HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL.
03:24 OUR JOURNEY ACROSS ISRAEL CONTINUES AND TAKES US TO CAESAREA,
03:28 ROME'S FIRST CENTURY MILITARY HEADQUARTERS IN JUDEA.
03:32 JOIN ME AS I VISIT THE PLACE WHERE EAST AND WEST ONCE COLLIDED.
03:39 JESUS IN HIS OWN WORDS SPOKE ABOUT A WORLD AT DAYS' END
03:43 THAT WAS FULL OF WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS.
03:48 I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER
03:48 WHETHER THE CLASH OF TITANIC FORCES NOTED IN DANIEL
03:52 WAS ON HIS MIND AS HE SPOKE FROM THE MOUNT OF OLIVES
03:55 THAT FATEFUL DAY SOME 2000 YEARS AGO.
03:59 SPEAKING FROM THIS PLACE, CAESAREA MARITIME,
04:02 THIS WAS THE ROMAN HOME AWAY FROM HOME AS THE ROMANS MIGHT PUT IT.
04:08 AS THE HEBREWS MIGHT PUT IT THIS IS THE LAIR OF THE DEVIL
04:13 FOR ROMAN LEGIONNAIRES CAME FROM THE SEA
04:16 AND HERE THEY WERE DISPATCHED TO THE ROMAN PROVINCE, THE FAR EASTERN PROVINCE OF JUDEA.
04:25 WHEN VIEWING TENSIONS IN THE MIDDLE EAST
04:28 AND CONSIDERING MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD'S BID TO DESTROY ISRAEL
04:37 AND WHILE CONSIDERING BIN LADEN AND HIS COHORTS
04:42 THE WAR AGAINST THE WEST
04:43 BECAUSE OF THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH ISRAEL.
04:44 WHEN I SEE WESTERN CULTURE AND MOHAMMEDAN CLASHING I ASK MYSELF THE QUESTION,
04:52 "DO I SEE THIS AT ALL IN BIBLICAL LITERATURE?"
04:54 WELL FRIENDS WE SEE IT HAPPENING HERE IN THIS BOOK DANIEL THE END TIME BOOK.
05:01 GOD COULD KICK THE CAN OF THIS PROPHECY
05:04 UP THE ROAD A NUMBER OF YEARS.
05:05 AND SO NOW WE'RE WATCHING RUSSIA AND IRAN
05:08 BUILD A MILITARY ALLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME
05:09 IN THE 2500 YEARS SINCE EZEKIEL SAID IT WOULD ONE DAY HAPPEN IN THE LAST DAYS.
05:15 DOES THAT MEAN THE WAR IS GOING TO HAPPEN SOON?
05:19 I DON'T KNOW.
05:20 I CAN'T RULE IN BUT I CAN'T RULE IT OUT EITHER
05:22 ESPECIALLY IN THE LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT EZEKIEL [CHAPTER] 36 AND 37 HAVE ALREADY COME TRUE.
05:28 RIGHT, RIGHT.
05:28 WE'RE SITTING IN ISRAEL, ITS REBORN, THE ANCIENT RUINS HAVE BEEN REBUILT,
05:31 JEWS ARE POURING BACK IN FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND IT DOES BEG THE QUESTION,
05:35 "IF EZEKIEL [CHAPTER] 36 AND 37 HAVE COME TRUE IN OUR LIFETIME
05:38 ISN'T IT POSSIBLE THAT EZEKIEL [CHAPTER] 38 AND 39 COULD COME TRUE AS WELL?
06:02 JOEL ROSENBERG IS AN EXPERT POLITICAL COMMENTATOR
06:06 WITH A BACKGROUND IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES.
06:08 GLAD YOU GOT TO INTERVIEW HIM.
06:10 HE IS A JOY FOR ME TO INTERVIEW.
06:11 HE IS SO SMART AND YET HE CAN PUT IT ALL TOGETHER.
06:14 AND YOU KNOW HE USED TO WRITE POLITICAL COMMENTS FOR RUSH LIMBAUGH,
06:18 HE DID NATAN SHARANSKY.
06:19 HE HAS HIS EAR ON THE GROUND IN ISRAEL SO HE'S GOT IT ALL TOGETHER.
06:24 HE'S A POLITICAL COMMENTATOR WITH SOME BIBLICAL SPRINKLINGS THE MORE SO.
06:29 OUR MINISTRY IS MORE OF BIBLICAL COMMENTARY
06:33 WITH SOME POLITICAL SPRINKLINGS
06:34 AND ITS INTERESTING HOW IT COMES TOGETHER RIGHT NOW.
06:36 IN ADDITION TO OUR SERIES ON "DANIEL AND THE LAST DAYS' BATTLE FOR PLANET EARTH"
06:42 WE LOOKED AT A "BAD MOON RISING"
06:44 WHICH IS SLATED HEAVILY ON THE SIDE OF POLITICAL COMMENTARY.
06:49 WE WERE PARTICULARLY INTERESTED IN WHAT APPEARED TO BE
06:53 AN ABANDONMENT IN EUROPE OF JUDEO-CHRISTIAN FAITH AND VIRTUE
06:57 AND THE RISE OF RADICAL ISLAM TO FILL THE HOLE THERE.
07:02 WE NOT ONLY LOOKED AT THE CURRENT SITUATION
07:05 BUT WE LOOKED BACK IN RECENT MEMORY
07:09 AND CONSIDERED THE RISE OF HITLER
07:12 AND HOW HE IMPOSED AN AGENDA UPON INDIVIDUALS
07:16 THAT WERE RATHER SHEEPISH, WAY TOO DUTIFUL AND COMPLIANT.
07:20 AND THE NET RESULT IS THAT THE WORLD GOT SWALLOWED UP,
07:24 THE DOGS OF WAR WERE UNLEASHED
07:26 AND HAVOC WAS REEKED UPON THE JEWS AND JUDEA-CHRISTIAN VALUES.
07:31 AND OUR CONCERN IS THAT IN MUCH THE SAME WAY TODAY
07:35 WE SEE A RISE OF A RELIGIOUS QUASI RELIGIOUS POLITICAL AGENDA,
07:42 ISLAMA FASCISM BENT ON DESTRUCTION AND CONQUEST.
07:47 AND "BAD MOON RISING" LOOKED AT THAT.
07:50 DID IT NOT?
07:51 IT DID AND IT LOOKED AT IT IN AN UN-POLITICALLY CORRECT MODE WHICH I FOUND REALLY REFRESHING.
07:57 AND EVERYONE I TALKED TO HAS LOVED IT.
08:00 SO I THINK IT WAS A HIT.
08:01 ITS NICE TO MAKE FRIENDS
08:02 BUT WE'RE NOT DOING SO AT THE COST OF WATERING DOWN WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY.
08:08 AS LONG AS PEOPLE LET US TALK WE'LL KEEP TALKING.
08:10 BUT THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH JEFF.
08:11 YOU CAN'T DENY...EVEN THE ISLAMISTS HAVE SAID THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.
08:17 THEY WANT TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD.
08:19 THERE'S NO DENYING IT.
08:20 ITS JUST A MATTER OF HOW THEY'RE GONNA DO IT.
08:22 YES, AND MY CONCERN ALL ALONG ISN'T...
08:25 AND I WANT TO SAY THIS LEST I OR WE BE CONSTRUED AS
08:28 JUST BENT ON PICKING ON EVERY MUSLIM
08:33 THAT WALKS THAT DOWN THE STREET. >>NO
08:34 THERE'RE A LOT OF MUSLIM PEOPLE THAT ARE DECENT,
08:36 HARD WORKING, GOOD PEOPLE THAT DON'T WANT TO HURT.
08:39 MY CONCERN IS THAT AS IN THE CASE IN GERMANY
08:42 THERE WERE A LOT OF DECENT GERMANS
08:44 BUT WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN THE ERRATICAL AGENDA GETS CONTROL
08:48 THEY JUST MOVE THE PROGRAM AND SWEEP UP ALL THE MODERATES
08:52 RENDERING THEM IRRELEVANT.
08:55 AND PEOPLE GET AFRAID.
08:57 THEY ARE AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT.
08:58 AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE DO
09:01 IS TO GIVE A VOICE FOR PEOPLE TO STAND UP AND SAY, "THIS IS WRONG".
09:04 WELL, PEOPLE HELPED US AND WE DID IT IN 2007 AND WE HAVE MORE WORK LIKE THAT TO DO IN 2008.
09:13 WE DO, ITS AN IMPORTANT WORK.
09:14 YES, GOD WILLING AND THE MONEY COMING WE HAVE A SERIES ON EZEKIEL THAT'S PENDING
09:20 AND THAT PLAYS INTO JOEL ROSENBERG'S THESIS. >>OH YEAH
09:23 AND ZOLA IN HIS DAY AS WELL
09:25 WAS REALLY INTERESTED IN EZEKIEL. >>OH YEAH, HE LOVED IT.
09:27 BECAUSE OF A PROPHECY ABOUT THE ARMIES FROM THE NORTH INVADING
09:30 AND THAT SURE LOOKS AND SMELLS LIKE RUSSIA. >>RUSSIA AND IRAN.
09:34 AND IRAN COMING IN FROM THE EAST
09:36 AND WE'RE GONNA TELL THAT STORY AND MORE. >>ABSOLUTELY.
09:40 AND LEST WE BE CONSTRUED AS OVERLY VESTED IN POLITICAL CONCERNS
09:44 LET ME SAY THAT I BELIEVE THERE ARE SPIRITS THAT DRIVE WORLD EVENTS.
09:50 SOUNDS SPOOKY BUT ITS BIBLICAL.
09:52 FOR THE TEXT SAYS THAT THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD
09:56 AND WE'RE TOLD THAT WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD.
09:59 AND WE'LL CONTINUE NOW TO LOOK AT ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES IN 2007
10:02 AS WE CONSIDERED SPIRITUAL COMPONENTS TO THE WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN.
10:17 AT THE TIME OF THE END
10:19 EVIL FORCES MUSTERED BY THE ANTICHRIST
10:22 WILL BE MOBILIZED AND FOISTED UPON GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE.
10:40 I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WITNESS THE EVIL FORCES FIRST HAND
10:44 WHILE VISITING THE BORDER OF GAZA AND THE SHELL SHOCKED TOWN OF SDEROT.
10:52 THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF A KASAN ROCKET.
10:54 THIS ONE FELL TODAY.
10:57 IN FACT THEY'RE ALL DATED.
10:59 AND THIS IS TODAY'S FARE.
11:02 OVER HERE IS YESTERDAY'S.
11:04 AND SOME OF THESE MISSILES HAVE GRAFFITI WRITTEN ON THE SIDE.
11:09 ONE SAYS, "FROM GAZA WITH LOVE".
11:12 ANOTHER ONE SAYS, "TO JERUSALEM".
11:15 AND THEY ARE SENDING THEIR AFFECTIONS THIS WAY.
11:18 IN THIS HOME HERE DINNER IS NOT BEING SERVED.
11:25 COOK POT, HOLES IN IT.
11:28 THE KASAN ROCKET HIT THE HOUSE,
11:31 THE WALL FELL ON MOTHER,
11:33 FIRE INSUED.
11:34 YOU KNOW WHEN THOSE ROCKETS HIT THEY'RE LOADED WITH NAILS AND THEY'RE VERY...
11:39 HOW DO YOU RESIST THEM?
11:40 THIS IS A METAL POT, GOES RIGHT THROUGH IT LIKE BULLET HOLES.
11:44 WELL THE SCRIPTURE TALK ABOUT WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS
11:47 AND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S MORE THAN A RUMOR HERE.
11:50 OVER THE HILL I SEE FIRE IN THE GAZA...
11:55 THIS IS THE AREA WHERE
11:57 THOUSANDS OF ROCKETS HAVE BEEN
12:00 LOBBED OVER INTO THIS AREA.
12:02 WE JUST OBSERVED, I KNOW YOU HAVE WITH ME, A UNIT OF TANKS
12:06 MAKING THEIR WAY TO POINTS UNKNOWN TO US.
12:09 I KNOW THEY KNOW WHERE THEY'RE GOING.
12:10 WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY'RE GOING BUT WE KNOW AT ONE LEVEL WHERE THE WORLD IS GOING
12:15 AND SO AGAINST THIS BACKDROP WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO
12:18 IS TO CONTINUE THE STORY IN THE 7TH CHAPTER OF THE BOOK OF DANIEL
12:22 WHEREIN WE'RE TOLD OF A WORLD WHERE A VERY STRANGE EMPIRE IS GOING TO EMERGE AT DAY'S END
12:31 AND CRUSH AND REEK HAVOC.
13:24 LAST YEAR I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN SDEROT
13:27 AND TO SEE THOSE SAME KASAM ROCKETS THAT JEFF TALKED ABOUT.
13:30 TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE FIRING KASAM ROCKETS INTO A SWEET LITTLE TOWN IN ISRAEL
13:36 IS JUST A PROPHECY OF BATTLES TO COME.
13:41 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BATTLES.
13:42 THE NEXT SEGMENT IS JEFF IN ARMAGEDDON, HAR MEGIDDO,
13:47 THE FINAL BATTLE OF ALL THE BATTLES.
13:50 HERE'S JEFF.
14:09 LITTLE DID THEY KNOW
14:11 AS THEY MADE READY FOR THE BATTLE TO COME
14:14 THAT THE BATTLE THEY ANTICIPATED
14:17 WAS PREDICTED THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO.
14:40 WHY DO THE NATIONS RAGE?
14:42 THAT'S WHAT THE PSALMIST WANTED TO KNOW.
14:44 AND RAGE THE WORLD HAS AGAINST THE JEWISH PEOPLE HERE AT ARMAGEDDON.
14:49 THERE'S 25 LAYERS OF CIVILIZATIONS THAT BUILT FORTS HERE ON THIS HILL.
14:56 WE'RE GOING TO CONSIDER THE STORY OF ARMAGEDDON
14:58 AS WE LOOK AT DANIEL AND THE LAST DAYS' BATTLE FOR PLANET EARTH.
15:03 FOLLOW ME NOW TO THE HILL OF MEGIDDO, ARMAGEDDON.
15:13 AND IN VERSES 40 AND ON IN THE 11TH CHAPTER
15:16 DANIEL IS GIVEN WORDS ABOUT WHAT WILL UNFOLD ON PLANET EARTH JUST BEFORE THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON.
15:58 BRAVELY THEY FOUGHT ON
15:59 EVEN AS THEY FEARED THAT THE DARKNESS WOULD LIKELY OVERTAKE THEM.
16:13 BUT THEN THEY REALIZED THEY WERE LIVING AT THE DAWN OF A BRAND NEW DAY.
16:31 MADE FAMOUS AS THE ROOT OF JESUS' FINAL ENTRANCE INTO JERUSALEM,
16:36 MAKING MY WAY DOWN THE MOUNT OF OLIVES I'M CONSIDERING HOW FOLLOWING THE LAST DAY'S WAR
16:42 A NEW WORLD WILL BE INAUGURATED FROM THIS VERY PLACE.
16:47 IN TODAY'S "JERUSALEM POST"
16:50 THE COVER STORY WAS "THE WORLD TOO SLOW IN STANDING UP TO ISLAM".
16:56 THIS IS FOLLOWED THEN BY A CONCERN FROM YAD VASHEM THAT WAS POSTED
17:02 ABOUT HOW THE HOLOCAUST DENIAL IS PAVING THE WAY FOR GENOCIDE.
17:07 SO WHEN I LOOK AT THE NEWSPAPERS I HEAR STORIES THAT TROUBLE ME.
17:12 WHEN I STAND HERE IN JERUSALEM BEHIND ME I HEAR WORDS THAT TROUBLE ME.
17:17 AND ALL OF THIS REMINDS ME OF A STORY I READ IN BIBLICAL LITERATURE.
17:22 DANIEL CHAPTER 12, THE WRITER SPEAKING MANY CENTURIES BEFORE CHRIST SAID,
17:44 WHAT A FASCINATING STORY THAT IS
17:45 THAT THERE'S A POINT IN TIME WHEN THINGS JUST GO FROM BAD TO WORSE
17:50 BUT THE DELIVERER EMERGES.

19:22 JERUSALEM FOREVER.
19:24 I LOVE THAT MUSIC.
19:26 I LOVE THE WORDS.
19:26 I LOVE SEEING JERUSALEM BEING UNITED AND NOT EVER DIVIDED.
19:31 IT TALKS ABOUT JERUSALEM IN REVELATION, A NEW HEAVEN, A NEW EARTH
19:36 AND A NEW JERUSALEM NEVER EVER TO BE DIVIDED.
19:40 THERE ARE SOME POLITICIANS WHO WANT TO DIVIDE JERUSALEM.
19:43 IN FACT, WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT ONE IN A MINUTE,
19:45 AN INTERVIEW ZOLA DID MANY YEARS AGO WITH THE PRIME MINISTER OLMERT.
19:50 IT IS AN INTERESTING INTERVIEW.
19:52 I WAS THERE FOR SOME OF IT.
19:53 HE SHOOK ALL OUR HANDS, REALLY A NICE GUY.
19:56 REALLY AT ONE TIME SAID, "NEVER EVER DIVIDE JERUSALEM."
20:01 HE WAS ADAMANT ABOUT IT.
20:03 AND HERE'S MAYOR OLMERT.
20:06 THOSE WHO ARE ATTACKING US,
20:08 REALLY ATTACK US BECAUSE OF POLITICS.
20:10 THEY PUT POLITICS INTO IT.
20:11 FOR US, FOR EVERY PERSON THAT READ THE BIBLE,
20:15 FOR EVERY ONE WHO KNOWS A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY,
20:16 FOR EVERY ONE WHO KNOWS A LITTLE BIT OF WHAT JEWS WENT THROUGH IN THEIR HISTORY BECAUSE OF JERUSALEM
20:24 KNOW THAT THIS IS THE MOST NATURAL THING THAT JERUSALEM IS OUR CAPITOL.
20:30 YESTERDAY NIGHT I HAD A VERY INTERESTING AND EXCITING MEETING
20:32 WITH 3000 CHRISTIANS VISITING JERUSALEM TODAY FROM THE INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN EMBASSY.
20:39 THEY REPRESENT 90 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES FROM ACROSS THE WORLD.
20:44 AND I ASKED THEM, "YOU TELL ME DOES GOD WANT JERUSALEM TO BE DIVIDED?"
20:51 "IS THIS WHAT JERUSALEM IS ALL ABOUT, TO BE A DIVIDED, SPLITTED CITY?"
20:58 AND THEY ALL ROSE ON THEIR FEET
21:00 AND THEY KEPT YELLING, "NO! NO! NO!"
21:05 "WE ALL SUPPORT A ONE UNDIVIDED CITY OF JERUSALEM
21:07 TO BE THE CAPITOL OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE."
21:11 SO THE REST IS POLITICS.
21:13 THE REST IS POLITICS.
21:15 WHAT OTHER PEOPLES SAY, WHAT OTHER NATIONS SAY,
21:17 THE EUROPEAN UNION IS MOTIVATED BY POLITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
21:21 NOT BY TRUE UNDERSTANDING OF THE DYNAMICS OF HISTORY.
21:25 (Jeffrey Seif speaking) BY THE YEAR 2003
21:30 EHUD OLMERT HAD BECOME THE DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER OF ISRAEL.
21:33 AT THIS POINT HE STILL REMAINED UNWAVERING WITH REGARD TO AN UNDIVIDED JERUSALEM.
21:39 WE HAVE JUST THROWN OUT ALL OF THOSE INVADERS
21:46 THAT TRIED TO TAKE OVER TEL AVIV AND HAIFA IN JERUSALEM
21:51 AND TOOK OVER THOSE TERRITORIES,
21:53 SINAI, THE WEST BANK AND THE GOLAN HEIGHTS SIMPLY AS A LAST RESORT TO SAVE OUR LIVES.
22:05 NOW SINCE THEN ISRAEL SAY TO ME THAT,
22:07 "WE ARE READY TO SIT DOWN AND TALK AND GIVE YOU BACK EVERYTHING
22:11 EXCEPT FOR THE CITY OF JERUSALEM."
22:13 THAT WAS FROM DAY ONE THE JEWISH PEOPLE SAID,
22:17 "WE HAVE RETURNED BACK TO JERUSALEM NEVER TO LEAVE IT."
22:21 "NEVER EVER TO RE-DIVIDE IT".
22:24 WHEN I CONSIDER THE FLIPPING AND FLOPPING IN THE POLITICAL AGENDA
22:30 I'M REMINDED THAT THIS IS A TIME
22:31 WHEN GOD'S PEOPLE NEED TO STAND FIRM TO SUPPORT BIBLICAL AGENDAS
22:37 UNLIKE POLITICIANS THAT NEED TO GO WITH WHAT'S EXPEDIENT OR THEY FEEL THEY NEED TO GO THAT WAY,
22:44 WE BELIEVE WE NEED TO STAND WITH A BIBLICAL BACKBONE.
22:48 CORRECT?
22:49 NEVER TO BE DIVIDED,
22:51 JERUSALEM,
22:52 NEVER TO BE DIVIDED.
22:53 HOW CAN SOMEBODY HAVE ONE POSITION
22:55 AND NOW TODAY HAVE ANOTHER POSITION?
22:57 IS JUST BEYOND ME.
22:59 BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT JERUSALEM, ISRAEL.
23:00 WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT DALLAS, TEXAS.
23:02 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AN ETERNAL SPIRITUAL HOME.
23:04 YES, I THANK GOD FOR GOD AND I THANK GOD FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT.
23:08 UNDER-GIRDED BY GOD'S SPIRIT I'M ABLE AND WE'RE ABLE TO STAND UP THE MORE SO
23:13 AND BE UNYIELDING IN OUR RESOLVE TO LIVE AND DIE BY OUR PRINCIPALS.
23:21 I BELIEVE PERSONALLY THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PROBLEMS ON PLANET EARTH
23:25 AND WITH ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRY WANT TO BE PART OF THE CURE.
23:30 THERE ARE ISSUES THAT ARE POLITICAL IN NATURE, SOCIAL IN NATURE AND FAMILY IN NATURE.
23:36 AND AS WE LOOKED AT BIBLE PROPHECY
23:38 WE ALSO WANTED TO GO INTO THE HOME
23:40 AND WE CONSIDERED A SERIES ON WOMEN.
23:43 DID WE NOT?
23:44 WE DID.
23:45 WE LOOKED AT ABIGAIL.
23:46 WE LOOKED AT EVE.
23:48 WE LOOKED AT HANNAH.
23:48 WE LOOKED AT DEBRA.
23:49 WE LOOKED AT WOMEN OF THE BIBLE
23:51 WHO WERE RELEVANT TO NOT A THOUSAND,
23:53 THREE THOUSAND,
23:55 FOUR THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
23:56 BUT TODAY.
23:57 HOW CAN WE LIVE OUR LIVES AS PEOPLE, AS WOMEN TODAY?
24:01 IT WAS REALLY A GOOD SERIES.
24:02 WE DID A LOT OF WORK LAST YEAR.
24:03 YES, AND WE DID IT BECAUSE YOU HELPED US TO DO IT.
24:07 SANDRA AND I GET TO STAND IN FRONT OF YOU.
24:09 BUT THE ONLY REASON WHY WE CAN STAND IN FRONT OF YOU IS BECAUSE YOU STAND BEHIND US.
24:16 AND BY YOUR STANDING BEHIND US
24:16 WE WERE ABLE TO CAST A BIBLICAL VISION FOR A WOMANKIND AND TAKE THAT ALL OVER THE WORLD.
24:25 ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I WAS EXCITED ABOUT THAT SERIES
24:28 IS BECAUSE WE TRANSLATED IT INTO ARABIC AND BROADCAST IT IN THE MUSLIM WORLDS
24:34 WHERE GOODNESS KNOWS THEY NEED SOME KIND OF LIBERATION,
24:37 SOMETHING OVER THERE BECAUSE WOMEN, FOR MY MONEY, ARE GETTING A RAW DEAL.
24:43 WELL, WE THINK WE'RE OFFERING A GREAT DEAL.
24:45 WE STAND FOR BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES
24:47 IN A WORLD WHERE BIBLICAL VIRTUE
24:49 IS IN HIGH DEMAND AND SHORT SUPPLY.
24:52 AMEN, AMEN AND AMEN.
24:54 ITS WHAT WE DO.
24:56 WE PREACH THE BIBLE,
24:56 WE TEACH THE GOOD NEWS OF SALVATION,
24:59 WE GO TO ISRAEL,
25:00 WE GO TO CHURCHES,
25:01 WE DO A LOT OF WORK FOR OUR LORD
25:04 AND ITS JUST GREAT WORK.
25:05 I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY.
25:07 WE DO IT FOR THE LORD,
25:08 WE DO IT FOR YOU.
25:10 PEOPLE CALL US UP.
25:10 A SMALL CHURCH IS ONE, TWO, THREE HUNDRED.
25:12 "CAN YOU COME TO OUR CHURCH AND SPEAK?"
25:14 I GUESS WE'RE TELEVISION PERSONALITIES.
25:16 IF THERE'S NOT 10,000 PEOPLE
25:17 WE DON'T SHOW.
25:18 IS THAT THE PLAN?
25:19 YOU KNOW I WAS THINKING ABOUT THAT THE OTHER DAY.
25:21 I SPOKE IN A CHURCH IN INDIANA.
25:22 SMALL, TINY, I THINK IT HELD 60 PEOPLE, THAT'S HOW MANY IT HELD.
25:27 BUT IT WAS FULL.
25:28 AND THOSE PEOPLE WERE SO KIND TO ME AND SO SWEET TO ME.
25:31 IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST TIMES I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME.
25:34 WE'RE NOT TOO BIG FOR OUR BRITCHES.
25:36 IF YOU'D CONTACT US
25:37 WE'LL FIND A WAY TO MAKE CONTACT WITH YOU PERSONALLY.
25:41 WE'LL GO.
25:41 WE COME TO YOU THROUGH TELEVISION
25:43 BECAUSE YOUR KIND ENOUGH TO TURN US ON.
25:45 AND IF YOU'LL INVITE US IN TO YOUR CHURCH
25:47 WE'LL BE KIND ENOUGH TO TRY AND TURN YOUR CHURCH ON
25:50 TO THINGS THAT MATTER TO ME AND SANDRA AND TO YOU.
25:54 LET ME ASK YOU AS WE FINISH UP 2007, AS WE LOOK AT 2008,
26:01 AS WE'RE MOVING INTO ISRAEL'S 60TH BIRTHDAY.
26:04 AS WE'RE HERE AT THIS IMPORTANT MOMENT IN HISTORY
26:09 CAN I ASK YOU TO PLEASE GET BEHIND ME?
26:13 CAN I ASK YOU TO PLEASE GET BEHIND SANDRA
26:16 AND PLEASE HELP US TO PREACH GOD'S WORD
26:22 FROM A JEWISH PERSPECTIVE?
26:24 HELP US TO TEACH THE TRUTHS THAT WE ADVOCATE FOR.
26:29 IF YOU HELP US WE PROMISE THAT WE WON'T ABUSE YOUR TRUST.
26:35 WE DON'T HAVE YACHTS OR FANCY JETS AND WHEN WE TRAVEL
26:38 WE DON'T TRAVEL BUSINESS CLASS, WE GO COACH.
26:43 WE'RE NOT PRIMA DONNAS.
26:44 WE'RE NOT TOO BIG TO SPEAK TO SMALL CHURCHES
26:47 AND WHEN WE GO THERE WE'RE NOT SO BIG WE NEED ROYAL TREATMENT.
26:51 WE'LL GO WHERE WE'RE INVITED
26:53 AND WE'LL STAY WHERE WE'RE APPRECIATED.
26:56 AND IF YOU APPRECIATE WHAT WE'RE DOING
26:59 LET ME ASK YOU TO PLEASE HELP US TO KEEP ON DOING IT.
27:03 WE DON'T OFTEN MAKE A PITCH
27:04 BUT AT THE END OF THE YEAR WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT.
27:09 YOU'RE GRACIOUS TO HEAR US OUT.
27:10 CAN I ASK YOU TO PLEASE OPEN UP YOUR CHECK BOOK
27:13 AND MAKE A CHECK OUT TO ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES
27:17 OR BY CREDIT CARD CONTACT OUR WEBSITE AT
27:23 AND HELP US TO CONTINUE TO TELL THE STORY THAT'S NEVER TOLD?
27:28 AND I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THIS.
