Hebrew Israelite Bishop Nathanyel, Iran-Israel Missiles, Stars and Bible Prophecy attacks Christian churches, and particularly "Black Pastors" as he styles it as negligent in addressing the genocide in Palestine.
He joins the modern-day prophets of doom who are using the Iran Israel war as the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.
He cites Matthew 24:29 as prophetic proof that the retaliatory attack on the Israelis by Iran is prophesied in Scripture.
He also claimed that the phrase "wars and rumors of wars" in Matthew 24:6 was referring to modern day rumors about World War III.
The Bible does have something to say about stars in Bible prophecy, and they tell quite an intriguing story.
However, the storyline is quite different than that which Bishop Nathanyel postulates.
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to All Things Fulfilled. I'm William Bell.
In this video, we're going to take a few minutes to respond to Hebrew Israelite leader,
Bishop Nathaniel, and to a video that he is seen in talking about the lack of Christian activity
as it relates to the genocide that's going on in Gaza, and saying that there's been no
involvement from the Christian community. Israel bombed Gaza. Then what did they do?
They bombed Syria. They bombed Yemen. Now they bombed Iran. And no black pastor says that's
evil. I don't see anything. No, I don't see it. Nothing's wrong. Nothing's wrong.
Also, he makes a lot of errors in his presentation in attempting to deal with that,
and I'm going to respond to some of those. Some of what he says is just absolutely bizarre,
but we're going to show you from the Scriptures where it's not the case. But let me say,
first of all, in terms of responses to the situation going on with the modern state of
Israel. I have done two very lengthy videos some years ago. I don't know. They may have been back
in 2014 or so, but it's been a while back, and they've been on the internet for some time. I'm
going to put the links down so you can watch them. I actually was doing a response to John
Hagee. In his book that he wrote, I think it's titled In Defense of Israel. I did two long videos
in that going into detail. Of course, there's been tons of remarks on that, so I do encourage
you to watch that. In addition, I published a little booklet called Zionism, the Wolf in
Judaism's Clothing. That has been out for some time. It's in e-book form, but it can be ordered
off of Amazon. I also responded to Joel Rosenberg a while ago. That's been over 18 years ago,
I think, when I first got on the internet. It was one of the second, I think, messages that
I put out. But nevertheless, I still had all black hair at the time. But nevertheless,
to say that there's been no responses to that is not true. I also had a radio program
on Blog Talk Radio and attracted a couple of former Hebrew Israelites to that program.
They joined in with me for quite some time, maybe about a year or two. We talked about
the Schofield Bible, how it was financed and developed by the Oxford Bible Society.
One of its purposes and designs was to hijack Christianity to get Christians to believe that
the modern state of Israel were actually the Israel covenant people of the Bible,
which they are not, and to persuade these churches to support them so that they could get money from
the U.S. and they could take over the land in Palestine, and which we all know the story
about that. But that was all done with a Schofield-referenced Bible, where they put
the notes in the margins and in the footnotes, and people read those and didn't read the
Scriptures, and they all got swept away with this thing called Zionism. And many people,
you know, are still under that influence today. That's very sad that you have Christian churches
who labor under that, and many of them are finally beginning, because of the moral argument
of what's going on, they're beginning to see how atrocious taking such a view is,
but it's also that way as far as the Scriptures are concerned.
Now, as Mr. Nathaniel was making his presentation and ranting about how Christians are not involved,
and I've actually had discussions, as I said, with Hebrew Israelites. Some of their best and
brightest minds have converted their entire organizations from what they were believing,
and one of them has probably had more debate with them than anyone I know. His name is Elvin
Israel, so if you haven't checked out his work in debating them, feel free to do so. I've had a
couple of debates with them as well. Israel bombed Gaza, then what did they do? They bombed Syria,
they bombed Yemen, now they bombed Iran. And no black pastor says that's evil. You all go,
I don't see anything. No, I don't see it, nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong. But nevertheless,
let's look at some of the things that he said. Now, he talks about the situation going on with
Iran and Israel today, suggesting that that is Bible prophecy. Oh, you said what I think
about what's going on with Iran right now? Yes, yes. Okay, okay. Well, it's Bible prophecy.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with the Bible or Bible prophecy. And of all places that
Bishop Nathaniel went to try to prove his point was Matthew chapter 24. I'll show you that real
quick. Give me that one in Matthew 24 about wars. Watch this. Matthew chapter 24 in verse 6,
and ye shall hear of wars and rumors of war. You shall hear of wars and rumors of war. As a matter
of fact, in so doing, he ignored the total context, didn't even read a part of the context,
just jumped down there in what, about verse 6 or 7, and read a text that said,
that talked about there shall be wars and rumors of wars. Well, ladies and gentlemen,
if you look at that context, you would have to see that starting in the middle of the text and
just talking about wars and rumors of wars, and then going to the Old Testament, picking out
a verse or just making a blanket statement that a rumor is something that's not true,
it's something that you hear about, it's not really, that is not exegesis, that is not biblical
interpretation, and it's not hermeneutics as well. The text in Matthew 24 is based on
statements that Jesus made in the last days of his ministry, when he was talking about
retribution coming on the Jews of that day for killing the prophets, for beating and stoning
those he was going to send to them, the last few verses of Matthew 23, and therefore telling them
that their house, the temple, was going to be left desolate. And he said all of this would take place
in this generation, verses 34 through 36. We encourage you to look at that. Now, when the
apostles heard that, the apostles came to him privately and asked him, after he had told them,
you see these stones here, these beautiful stones of the temple that they were admiring? He says,
not one stone shall be left upon another which shall not be thrown down. And so, after saying
that, the apostles came to him privately and they asked, Lord, when will these things be?
What things? Those things related to the temple that was then existing in Jerusalem in the first
century. When will these things be? And what will be the sign of your coming? The word coming is
from parsia, it means presence. What will be the sign of your presence and of the completion of
the age? That's what the word means in the original, the consummation of the age. They didn't ask about
the end of the physical world. They were talking about something that was going to take place
in association with that temple that stood, that Jesus had just talked about. He had said nothing
about Iran, nothing about America, nothing about this modern state of Israel. It's not in the
context of scripture. Now, once he begins to answer that question, he tells them to take heed
because he says, they're leading up to that point, there were going to be wars, rumors of wars,
famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places. But he gives them the contextual setting
for those things to occur. For example, in Matthew chapter 24 and verse 15, he tells them
that when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet standing in the
holy place, that's the temple, he says, whosoever reads, let him understand. He says, then let them
flee. And he was talking to people in Judea, let them flee to the mountains. And those who were in
the countries don't return back to the country. He says, because those were the times in which
these events would occur. He had also told them in verse 14, this gospel of the kingdom must be
preached as a witness to all the nations in all the inhabited earth, and then the end would come.
Now, there's proof that the gospel went to all the nations in the first century while the apostle
Paul was still living. Read Romans 10 and verse 18. Read Romans 1 and verse 8. Read Romans 16,
verses 25 and 26. Read Colossians chapter 1, verses 5 and 6. Also read verse 23 of the same chapter,
and it will affirm that the gospel had gone to all the nations. Well, Jesus said when that happened,
then the end will come. That's before America, Iran, and the situation that we have today was
ever on the scene. But here's the killer. In verse 34, and this is a verse that they don't
like reading. This is a verse that you'll see them on the back foot, tap dancing and everything else.
That text says, assuredly I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all
these things take place. Now, that's not the generation that Bishop Nathaniel is living in.
That's not the generation that you or I are living in. That's not some future generation.
That's the generation that Christ was living in at the time. So when he was talking about
wars and rumors of wars, he was talking about the wars and rumors of wars that led up to the fall
of Jerusalem, to the destruction of the temple. And if you read Josephus' history and also other
histories like Tacitus, you will see that they record these commotions and these wars that were
taking place and the rumors of wars that were occurring leading up to the fall of the temple.
It's all documented. Now let's get to another point that he mentioned. He talked about that
would be the time when the stars of heaven would fall. And he said, you see these missiles in the
almost fell out of my chair. He said, they look like stars. Well, yeah, in the night,
they look like stars because they're just light coming from these missiles.
And he said, these are the stars that the text is talking about. But he did admit,
they didn't have missiles back in those days, like the ones he was talking about. Probably
the only thing that you'd see looking like a star would be them lighting a fire on an arrow
and then shooting it. But that's about it. Watch this. One more scripture, Matthew 24 about stars.
Watch this. I'm going to show you something. Matthew chapter 24 and verse. It's around 29.
Verse 29. And immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened and the
moon shall not give her light and the stars shall fall from heaven. Now that part right there,
you see what says the stars shall fall from heaven. Elisha, come on. I need the video that
just gave you about Iran. I'm attacking Iran. What I want you to see is the explanation when
Christ says the stars shall fall from heaven. Those look like stars. Remember when the prophets
wrote these things, that current technology did not exist. So when they looked at missiles falling
from the sky, they had no words for missiles. That didn't exist. They said stars shall fall
from heaven. That's what you're looking at on the screen. Missiles coming from the sky.
And none of your churches understand this. None of your churches teach about this.
Of course, your churches have all been deceived. Every last one of them. But here's the point.
He misunderstands totally how the Bible uses stars in the context of Matthew 24 and verse 29.
So let's look at a few Bible passages that talk about these stars. And we're going to,
I'm going to put these on the screen so that you can see them. So let's just share some Bible
passages and we're going to read them and show you how the era has been or is exposed in trying
to talk about these stars and refer to them as missiles. Now, one of the first passages we will
look at is Genesis chapter 22 and verse 17. So let's go to Genesis 22 and the verse is 17. Notice
the scripture says, blessing, I will bless you and multiplying. I will multiply your descendants.
Watch as the stars of heaven and as the sand, which is on the seashore and your descendants
shall possess the gate of their enemies. Now, who was he talking about there? He was talking about
Israel, the descendants of Abraham. He didn't call them missiles. He called them the descendants
of Abraham. He says, I will bless your descendants. They would be the ones who would
possess the enemies. Okay. Let's go to another text. Let's look at Genesis chapter 26 and verse
four. And we're going to go through a few of these just so those of you who are paying attention,
you can see how you have to use the scriptures, not your own imagination and opinion, just because
you want to make an attack on a certain group of people. In 26 and four, it says, and I will make
your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven. I will give to your descendants, all these lands
and in your seed, all the nations of the earth should be blessed. There's another premise being
made that, and this is to Isaac, Abraham's son. And so he tells him that I'm going to multiply
your descendants as the stars. So now we see that stars are referring to people, but let's go
further because this is an interesting study through the scriptures. All right, we're going
to go now to Genesis 37. This ought to be a very popular one for people, especially, you know,
you should have learned this in kindergarten or Bible class when you were a kid, Sunday school
class. Notice the text talks about Joseph and his dream. And the scripture says in verse nine,
then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers and said, look, I have dreamed
another dream. And this one, the sun, the moon, and the 11 stars bowed down to me. Wait a minute.
Were those missiles bowing down to Joseph? No, he says the 11 stars bowed down to me. Now watch
how his father interprets the dream. So he told it to his father and his brothers and his father
rebuked him and said to him, what is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I,
now notice he said the sun, the moon, well, the father would refer to the sun. The moon would
refer to his mother and your brothers. Those are the 11 stars. We're still talking about Israel
as the stars. And he says in your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you. And so
that was the question. So that's a reference to people. That's a reference to stars being used in
metaphorical sense in this text. Now let's go on to here's another popular Messianic prophecy
in Numbers chapter 24. And this particular one refers to Jesus Christ himself. Numbers 24.
And the verse is 17. He says, I see him, but not now I behold him, but not near a star. You see
that a missile, a star shall come out of Jacob. A scepter shall rise out of Israel and batter the
brow of Moab and destroy all the sons of Tamal. See, this is a reference to Christ. This is a
reference to the ruler as Micah 5, 2 talks about coming out of Israel. And that's how the word star
is used. It's used that way, even with Joseph, because he became a ruler in Egypt and his
brothers came and bowed down to him. But he was, he was a chief star from that perspective. He was
a ruling star. He was second in command to Pharaoh. Let's look at another text. All right. So let's go
to maybe Exodus chapter 32. Let's go to Exodus 32 and 13. Let's see what we have there. Exodus 32
and 13. He says, remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants to whom you swore by your
own self and said to them, I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven. Still talking
about Israel and all this land I have spoken of, I give to your descendants and they shall inherit
it forever. So here again is this reference to stars. Now let's go to a text that deals with
stars, referring to other people outside of Israel. And in this particular one that I'm
going to bring up first, it will show it referring to, to Israel as well. But notice in Isaiah
chapter 14, Isaiah chapter 14, and the verse is 12. All right. Isaiah 14 and verse 12. Let's notice
what the text says. He says, how you are fallen from heaven. Oh, it must be a missile falling
from heaven on Israel by Iran. No. How are you fallen from heaven? Oh, Lucifer. Now the word
Lucifer means day star. It's a star. That's the meaning of Lucifer. He's not talking about the
devil coming out of heaven, even though the King of Babylon was satanic. But see, this is a prophecy
concerning the King of Babylon. Notice verse four, that you will take up this proverb against the
King of Babylon and say how the oppressor ceased, the golden city ceased. And the Lord has broken
the staff of the wicked. Now watch this, the scepter of the rulers. So when you go back to verse 12
and the text says, how are you fallen from heaven? That means his place of authority. That means his
place of power ruling over the nations as Babylon did. Oh, Lucifer, son of the morning. How are you
cut down to the ground? You who weaken the nations. Now watch what he says in verse 13. He says, for you
have said in your heart, I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God.
Who were the stars of God? That was Israel. And he did rule over Israel for 70 years of Babylonian
captivity. I will exalt my throne above the stars of heaven. I will also sit on the mount of the
congregation on the farthest sides of the north. You see, that's how they spoke in apocalyptic
language, in prophetic language. They weren't talking about missiles. Now having seen that,
let's go back to chapter 13, which is relevant to Matthew 24, 29. And it's one of the places where
the language that we see in Matthew 24, 29 is drawn. All right, Isaiah chapter 13. Now this
is a prophecy concerning the fall of Babylon. The burden against Babylon, which Isaiah, the son of
Amoz saw. Lift up a banner on the high mountain. Raise your voice to them. Wave your hand that they
may enter the gates of the nobles. I have commanded my sanctified ones. I've also called my mighty ones
for my anger, those who rejoice in my exaltation. Now, who is he calling here? He's calling the Medes
against the Babylonian empire, and that's who destroyed it, all right? And so these are the
sanctified ones that God is calling that he is using in order to destroy Babylon. And notice,
he says, woe for the day of the Lord is at hand. That means it was near in their time. It wasn't
near, speaking of something going on in 2025 today. All right, now let's go down to verse
10. For the stars of heaven and their constellation will not give their light. The sun will be
darkened, and it's going forth, and the moon will not cause its light to shine. Now, we've already
seen where Israel was called the sun, the moon, and the 12 stars with Joseph, but now he's
referring to Babylon as the sun, the moon, and the stars that will not shine. Notice, I will punish
the world for its evil and the wicked for their iniquity. I will haunt the arrogance of the proud,
and I will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. I will make a mortal more rare than fine gold,
a man more than the golden wedge of Ophir. Therefore, I will shake the heaven, same language
in Matthew 24, it's also in Joel chapter 2, and the earth will move out of her place in the wrath
of the Lord of hosts and in the day of his fierce anger. So, this is what he's saying, but look at
verse 17. I will stir up the Medes against them who will not regard silver, and as for gold,
they will not delight in it. And notice, and Babylon, the glory of the kingdoms, the beauty
of the Chaldeans pride will be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. So, that's what
he's talking about. He's talking about the ancient destruction of Babylon. And even, I think, in Isaiah
21, when he went to that text to talk about these wars and rumors of wars and things that were
happening there, that was about the Medes back in that date and time coming to destroy Babylon.
Let me, let's see if we can pull that text, if that's the one that I remember from his study.
The burden against the wilderness of the sea as whirlwinds in the south pass through,
so it comes from the desert, from a terrible land. A distressing vision is declared to me,
the treacherous dealer deals treacherously in the plunders. Go up, O Elam, besiege, O Media,
and it's sighing I have made to cease. So, this is talking about the revenge,
the retribution on Babylon for how they very wickedly treated the people of God.
Now, let's go, and that's the meaning of Matthew 24 and verse 29. Now, let's look at a few more
passages in the New Testament, and we're going to wrap this up in talking about these stars.
All right, let's go to Jude, excuse me, Jude chapter 1 and verse 13, and you're going to see
once again where these stars are referring to people in the context. Jude 1 and the verse is
13. The Bible says, and these are talking about those people who were disturbing the church in
the first century. All you have to do is read the context, and he says, for certain men have crept
in unnoticed. Well, why was Jude writing about them if this wasn't taking place until the year
2025? He's talking about things that were happening in that first century generation
because he knew the prophecy of Matthew 24. For certain men have crept in unnoticed who long ago
were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men who turned the grace of our God into lewdness
and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ. Who was Jude writing to people in the
first century? And he told them that whomever these were, they were spots in their love feasts,
these people who were corrupting them. While they feast with you without fear, serving only
themselves, they are clouds without water. Now he called them clouds, carried about by the winds,
late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots, raging waves of the sea.
Were these people literally raging waves, foaming up their own shame? Now watch this,
wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. Jude calls them
wandering stars. Not one time have we seen a single scripture refer to a star as a missile,
let alone falling down on Israel by Iran. You see, that's like that prophecy in Zechariah 14,
12. And John Hagee used that prophecy when he talks about people's flesh falling off their
bones, their eyes falling out of their sockets. He said, those, that's nuclear weapons that are
going to be dropped on Iran. Well, he's just as wrong as Bishop Nathaniel. As a matter of fact,
I did about a 10 or 12 series lesson on John Hagee and his other book, but they were called
wandering stars. Now here's something else. Let's look in the book of Revelation, Revelation
chapter one, and the verse is 16. The strict scripture says he had in his right hand, seven
stars. Jesus has seven missiles in his hand from Iran. Is that Jesus raining down the missiles on
Iran? The Bible says he had in his right hand, seven stars out of his mouth with a sharp two-edged
sword and his countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. Now, then he explains what the
seven stars are. The mystery of the seven stars, which you saw in my right hand and the seven
golden lampstands, the seven stars are the angels or messengers of the seven churches. That means
they were men. They are the messengers of the seven churches. And the seven lampstands, which
you saw, are the seven churches. Oh, so are the churches dealing with missiles now? You see,
that's how far gone this interpretation of Bishop Nathaniel is and how off he is when he tries to go
to Matthew 24, pull a scripture totally out of context, gives no background for it whatsoever,
no exegetical interpretation, totally misaligns the hermeneutic and claims that it refers to
something going on today. Okay, now let's look at this final text. This is going to be the nail
in the coffin to Bishop Nathaniel's argument about missiles coming out of Iran into Israel
based on Matthew 24 and verse 29. Now remember that we said, according to the scriptures,
this is related to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. Now we're going to show you how that
is the case. In the book of Revelation chapter six, this is within the sixth seal. That's just
before the last seal or the seventh trumpet. But nevertheless, the scripture says in verse 12,
I looked when he opened the sixth seal and behold, there was a great earthquake and the sun became
black as sackcloth of hair and the moon became like blood. Now those are the same apocalyptic
symbols that we have in Matthew 24, 29. The sun was darkened. All right. The moon was darkened
and here it says it turns to blood, but notice that's certainly darker than light. All right.
But at any rate, the point it says is that the sun became black as sackcloth of hair and the
moon became like blood and the stars of heaven fell to the earth as a fig tree dropped its late figs
when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up in every
mountain and island was moved out of its place. I want you to keep note of that as well. And the
kings of the earth and the great men, the rich men and the commanders, the mighty men, every slave
and every free man hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains and said to the
mountains and rocks, fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from
the wrath of the lamb for the great day of his wrath has come and who is able to stand. Now when
we look at this context of the darkening of the sun and moon and of the stars that fell from heaven
to the earth, but in connection and tied to this very context is the time when it says that the
people would say to the rocks and the mountains and to the caves, fall on us and hide us from the
face of him who sat on the throne. Well, let's go to the 23rd chapter of the book of Luke. This is
the time where Jesus is about to be crucified. Simon has been compelled to lead him to carry his
cross and the women of Jerusalem mourn for him, not the women of Iran, the women of Jerusalem
mourn for him. Now watch, the text says in verse 27, Luke chapter 23 verse 27, and a great multitude
and the people followed him and women also mourned and lamented him. But Jesus turning to them said,
daughters of Jerusalem, now not daughters of Iran, daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me but
weep for yourselves and for your children. For indeed the days are coming in which they will say
blessed are the barren wounds that never bore and breasts which never nursed. Then they will begin
to say, now did you notice that connection? When Jesus talks about these women and tells them
that blessed are the barren wounds that never bore and breasts which never nursed, he says because
the days were coming in which they would say these things, he says then when that's going on,
then they will begin to say to the mountains, fall on us and to the heels cover us. That's
the very language that's found in Revelation chapter six. But Jesus said that belonged and
referred to the daughters of Jerusalem. It referred to the time of the destruction of Jerusalem.
That's the time when the stars fell from heaven, when the sun and the moon was darkened and it
shows you that it has nothing to do with missiles from Iran falling on Israel. But this was the
apocalyptic language used to describe the fall of a nation. And one other point as I mentioned to you,
notice that it says in verse 16 of Revelation chapter six, then the sky receded as a scroll
when it is rolled up in every mountain and island was moved out of its place. Let's go
to Revelation chapter 16, Revelation chapter 16. And let's notice this context. And this is the
time of the seventh bowl. I'm going to start reading at verse 19. And by the way, it talks in
of the temple, the throne in verse 17. And then 18, it says, then there were noises and
thunderings and lightnings. And there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake
as had not occurred since men were on the earth. Now notice in verse 19, now the great city and
the great city, according to Revelation 11 in verse eight is the city where the Lord was crucified.
He wasn't crucified in Iran. It's the nor in America, the great city where the Lord was
crucified. It was spiritually called Sodom and Egypt. That's Revelation 11 in verse eight. Now
watch. Now the great city was divided into three parts and the cities of the nations failed
and great Babylon was remembered before God to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness
of his wrath. It wasn't that the subject of Revelation chapter six, the day of his wrath
has come. And again, in Luke chapter 23, he talks about this time of wrath, but nevertheless,
he says, then every island fled away and the mountains were not found. So that's the context.
And that's the subject of Matthew 24, 29, with the sun and the moon being darkened,
the stars falling from heaven and, uh, and not giving their light and the heavens and earth
shaken. But he says, all these things would come to pass within this generation. So we don't need
to put our hands on our ears and shake our head and cover our eyes as if we don't see it because
it's right there in the text. And it tells you that, and that also lets you know that the book
of Revelation was written prior to 70 AD and that it is about the fall of the temple in 70 AD,
just as Matthew chapter 24. Remember they asked about the end of the age.
Well, here's something else. And maybe I'll pull this scripture back up just so you see,
so you can understand that what the apostles were talking about were things that were occurring in
the first century generation. So let's, let's share this scripture with you. This is first
Corinthians chapter 10 and verse 11, first Corinthians chapter 10 and verse 11. Here is
the apostle Paul writing to the church at Corinth. But notice what he said in verse 11, he says,
uh, speaking about the things that happened during the exodus as an example for the church
not to follow. He said, now all these things happen to them as examples and they were written
for our admonition. Don't read yourself into that. Those are first century disciples,
Paul and the people to whom he was writing. See, that's the big problem of Bible interpretation.
And especially when it comes down to prophecy, all these things happen to them as examples and
they were written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the ages have come. So he's telling
them in the first century, the end of the ages have come upon us. That's what the disciples
asked Jesus about. He didn't say the end of the age was happening in the time of Bishop Nathaniel,
he said the end of the ages have come upon us. Those are people in the first century. That's why
Jesus told them all these things will come to pass in this generation. This generation will by no
means pass away. It's all associated with the fall of the temple in 70 AD. And that's what many of
these guys don't want to deal with. So as we conclude, ladies and gentlemen, we're not living
in the last days. The last days ended when the temple fell. The last days ended in the first
century. That was the end of old covenant Israel. And that's why none of these prophecies that these
people are talking about, whether they are Christian futurists, or whether they're Hebrew
Israelites, or any other group that tells you about a future prophecy, according to the Bible
is going to occur. Because here's what the Bible says. In Luke chapter 21, verses 20 through 22.
It says, and when you see Jerusalem, the same Jerusalem in the first century surrounded by
armies, those were the Roman armies. He says, then know that their desolation is near. Then let those
who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not
those who are in the country enter her, for these are the days of vengeance. Watch that all things
which are written may be fulfilled. And then he tells you again in verse 32, that that generation
would by no means pass away till all those things take place. You see, we've got a problem believing
Jesus. We have a problem believing the Bible. And that's why we're coming up with all these
fanciful prophecies and trying to make stars missiles when they refer to people, whether they
were God's people, Israel, or in some cases where they were the enemies of Israel. See in Matthew
24, when the text talks about the sun, the moon, and the stars being shaken, and the stars falling
from heaven, the heaven and earth being shaken, and the sun, moon, and stars falling from heaven,
that's talking about the rulers of Israel, the high priest, and all the priesthood, all the
rulers of Israel, the Sanhedrin council, all of those who rejected Christ, and all the false
rulers who rose up, the false Christ trying to overthrow the church. That's what that's referring
to, and it's in context, and it fits the description that the Bible gave, and not this
false interpretation of Bishop Nathaniel. I will challenge him to produce one scripture that tells
us that a star in the Bible is a missile shot from Iran. He won't do it. He can't do it. You know,
some years ago when I was talking to these Hebrew Israelites, some of them, one group of them, had a
prophecy that after 400 years was up, they were going to get to go back to Israel. I told them
years before. I said, that's a false prophecy. It will never happen, and this was before
2019, because they took their lead from 1619, you know, when slaves came over on the ship,
and they said, well, 400 years from that date, misunderstanding Bible prophecy. Once again,
we're going back to Israel, and all of them thought that they were going to do that, or many of them.
Well, 2019 came. You don't hear that prophecy anymore, do you? And that's the way it is with
every single prophecy that people make for the future. They're never going to happen, because
they've already happened, and that's what Jesus said. So with that, I hope that gives you some
insight on that. Let me remind you once again, check out those two videos on In Defense of
Israel, where I respond to John Hagee, who was a Christian, so it wasn't just Hebrew Israelites.
I'm pointing out the errors of the futurists, even among the Christians. The little booklet I have,
Zionism, the Wolf in Judaism's Clothing. I don't know if Blog Talk Radio is still up. Some of those
recordings might still be there, where we talk about Schofield, and all of these things,
and the Balfour Declaration, all those things of how this modern state of Israel got started.
And the video on Joel Rosenberg, you can look that up as well. It's right there on YouTube,
and many people have watched them. And just read some of the comments that are in there,
and you will find them. But once again, we're not in the last days. All prophecy has been fulfilled,
and anyone who says anything to the contrary is a liar, and does not know what the Bible teaches
on these matters. And I'm not saying that to be unkind. I'm saying that because
that's what the Scriptures teach. So with that, you have a very good evening,
and I'll be waiting on Bishop Nathaniel to produce the text in the Bible that says,
a star is a missile from Iran.
