BREAKING NEWS: Another Arab country will sign a peace deal with Israel in the "next day or two", US Ambassador to the UN, Kelly Craft says. Is all this talk of "Peace, Peace" really going to usher in long term peace in the Middle East for Israel? Or is this prophecy being fulfilled? Are we on the brink of what the Bible calls the soon approaching "Time of Jacob's trouble? Aka the great tribulation. (Jeremiah 30, Matthew 24)
We must preach the Kingdom of God and repentance to unbelieving Israel and the whole world! Because the King Messiah Yeshua is coming!

BREAKING NEWS: Bahrain is the second Arab nation to sign the “Abraham accords” peace agreement with Israel. Trump says, “this marks the dawn of the new Middle East.” This is another a historic event for Israel, the Middle East, America, for Christianity and the World.
In this podcast we will discuss the news of this recent development. We will also discuss a common criticism found among many Christians about the present immoral condition of much of the Modern State of Israel.
Many Christians in our day are saying that there are “dark forces” behind the Modern State of Israel and these deals. Is God really involved in what’s happening with Israel and America?
Some would argue no, that God has forgotten Israel forever and does not care for Israel. As Christians how should we view the Modern State of Israel and the events taking place in our day?
The Israel-Lights Podcast aims to confront and expose the monster of antisemitism, found among various Christian groups. So listen in until the end to find out the answers.

Think about it segment | True or False? The Old Testament is the "Jewish" part of the Bible and the New Testament is the "Christian" side. Listen in to find out the answer. Listen through until the end to hear the testimony of a Jewish man who found his Messiah in the pages of the Old Testament!
(Audio belongs to One For Israel Ministries. We do not claim the rights for this Jewish man's testimony. Go to One For Israel Ministries to hear more testimonies of Jewish men and woman finding Yeshua!)
This idea, that the Old Testament is Part 1 (the Jewish side) and the New Testament Part 2 (the Christian side) is an idea handed down to us from certain unbiblical traditions and perspectives that veil or ignore the true origins of our beloved Scriptures. It is also sometimes based on antisemitic teachings that have been passed down from many Pastors and Bible Teachers throughout the centuries.
The New Testament is not a "gentile" book only for Christians. The Bible from Genesis to Revelation is entirely Hebraic. It is entirely Jewish in subject, in language and expression. Highlighting this reality helps Jewish people understand that they do not need to be afraid of reading the New Testament. It is NOT antisemitic.
By the same token, understanding the reality that the Old Testament and New Testament is shaped by the lives and experiences of the people of Israel also helps Christians understand the origins of their faith and how to erase the gap that has been put there by unbiblical perspectives, for the purpose of rubbing out the Jewish centrality of the New Testament because of antisemitism.
The Gospels for example, (Matthew-John) are addressed to a Jewish audience. They were written by Jews, to Jews about a Jew! Jesus! Using Jewish history!
In the Old Testament we read about Israel’s history. In the New Testament, we continue reading about Israel's history! The New Testament is Israel’s history continued, in light of the coming of Jesus and it’s impact on the rest of nations of the world!
Let’s not be a stumbling block to Jewish people whom the Lord wants to draw to Himself. Let’s co-labor with Jesus in saving His people. At the same time, let us be experts on the history of our faith so our relationship with Jesus may continue to be enriched and so we may not be found fighting against God or opposing His promises to Israel.

There is a growing trend. More Christians are spreading hate of Jewish people. Read these following comments that have been placed on our Youtube channel…
“Heil Hitler.”
“No need to repent. You are already damned to hell! Really pathetic, these guys think they are believers!?”
“The Jews killed Jesus, they are the synagogue of satan.”
“Why should we trust a rabbi over a Pastor? Are you even Christian?”
“Replacement theology is true Christianity.”
“Liar, false prophets.”
Christians are not aware of the countless biblical passages (in the Old and New Testament) where God states explicitly that HE WILL NEVER REPLACE OR DISINHERIT HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL.
Yes, it’s true, the Bible is clear that He will judge and correct the rebellious of His people, but the Bible is also clear that God has a plan to regather, restore and cleanse Israel in the sight of the nations. (Jeremiah 30:10-11, Jeremiah 31:10, 35-37, Ezekiel 36:21-36)
We are connected to believing Israel through Jesus. Jesus, Paul and the apostles of Jesus (who are all Jewish) makes this reality clear. (John 1:29, John 3:16-21, John 10: 16-18, John 12:31-31, Acts 10:33-48, Acts 15:14-17, Ephesians 2:11-22, Ephesians 3:1-6, Romans 11:17-27, 1 Peter 2:9-10)
How, as followers of Jesus, can we hate the Jewish people when our Savior is Himself Jewish! He comes from and came through Israel! How can we as followers of Jesus ignore the fact that the gospel we believed is a JEWISH gospel??? How can we delete the people of Israel, the main characters of our Bible, when they are the original authors! We wouldn't even have a Bible if God didn't preserve them. We wouldn't know Jesus!
Please abandon heretical teachings that falsely claim that God has abandoned Israel, rejected Israel or REPLACED Israel with the "Christian Church." IT IS NOT TRUE.
Paul (who is Jewish) sternly warned new followers of Jesus about this same issue. He said in Romans 11:1 "Has God cast away His people? Certainly not!" He goes on in verses 17-27 and reminds believers that THEY (non-Jews) were taken from a wild (foreign) olive tree (meaning one God didn't plant or cultivate) and we were inserted into GOD'S OLIVE TREE (Israel) through Jesus.
Paul strictly warns new followers of Jesus. "Don't boast against the branches (Israel) ...you do not support the root, the root supports YOU." Paul says if one continues in this blatant arrogance and hate for His people that one faces the risk of being "cut off" judged and destroyed! Wow!
Be careful my friends. Let's pray for the salvation of unbelieving Israel!
Understand, if we have a relationship with Jesus, then we have a relationship with Israel. (Romans 11:17-18, Ephesians 2:11-22)

On August 13th, 2020 President Trump secured the first agreement to normalize relations (create a normal relationship) between Israel and a major Arab country in decades. The agreement called “the Abraham Accord”, is a historic peace, safety and security deal.
So, what’s the big deal? Why should we as followers of Jesus care about what’s happening in the Middle East? Is this peace deal really that important?
In case you didn’t know, there have actually been 6 historic events in our lifetime that have brought us significantly closer to what every committed follower of Jesus is anticipating as the days grow darker, the return of Jesus.
1. The Establishment of the state in May 14th, 1948.
2. President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s “eternal capital” and his plan to move the American embassy (American representation in Israel) to Jerusalem on December 6, 2017. Which happened.
3. The creation of a “Temple coin” on February 28th, 2018 provided by the Mikdash Educational Center, which is part of the Temple institute organization in Israel that is working to rebuild the third temple.
4. Israel celebrated its 70th birthday in April 18, 2018.
5. On July 19, 2018 Israel’s Parliament enacted a law declaring that the country of Israel is the “Nation State” OF Israel. Meaning, the Jewish people are declaring that Israel belongs to them and enacting laws which continue making that reality true.
6. Israel and UAE (United Arab Emirates) sign “Abraham Accords” agreement to normalize relations.
Many of us may have not known or recognized these 6 historic events or understood why they are important. Tune in to our conversation.
