This week on the Mark Levin Show, the Justice Department is launching a federal grand jury investigation into former Obama administration officials accused of their role in 2016's Russia-gate. This legal move could lead to criminal charges against key Cabinet members from the Obama era, including James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey. President Barack Obama needs to be questioned for his role. Barack Obama is the central figure in uncovering the full scope of the Russia Collusion scandal and the attempt to undermine the Trump campaign and presidency. The Supreme Court does not grant him blanket immunity. It offers a presumption of immunity, which could be challenged based on what the investigation reveals. Regardless, there is no immunity from criminal investigation or from being compelled to testify under oath—period. Israel is being attacked and accused of a deep Zionistic rhetoric that Israel has special interests regarding the spread of Zionism. Isreal is defending itself and protecting the freedoms of Jews, Christians and non-radical Muslims who oppose the Radical-Islamic regimes. Sen Elizabeth Warren met with Zohran Mamdani to endorse his socialist and Marxist agenda. Warren asserts that affordability is the primary crisis facing our nation, but this is merely a facade to disguise their true intentions. She also claims that this aligns with the Democratic message and their core values. Fidel Castro spoke of free healthcare, free food, and housing, yet he stifled his people's progress, leading to the current disastrous state of Cuba. The handouts they are advocating will ultimately cause more harm than good, jeopardizing everything you have worked tirelessly for, merely to provide for illegal immigrants, while also undermining essential institutions like our Police Departments, ICE, and more. Democrats have been more aggressive in gerrymandering than Republicans. There's not a single Republican representative from Massachusetts. There's only one Republican representative from Maryland. In 2020, the Census made "mathematic" errors resulting in upwards of 5 congressional seats assigned to blue states, which should have been held by red states. President Trump as an iconic, history-making president who thinks outside the box, achieving success as both a businessman and leader. Trump leverages America's economic power to rebuild industries, repatriate businesses, access closed economies, and compete with Communist China, while applying it to foreign policy—mirroring Ronald Reagan's approach that led to the Soviet Union's collapse. Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson warns of a "point of no return" for city finances amid a $1.1 billion 2026 deficit, pushing for tax hikes like a millionaire tax, corporate head tax and wants progressive revenue options. In On Power, it explains that the progressive movement aims to fundamentally transform America and Western democracies by centralizing government power, diminishing individual freedoms, and reengineering society through soft negative power. Johnson's progressive tax hikes reflects a drive to expand centralized governmental authority, which will erode economic freedoms and individual autonomy in pursuit of societal reengineering. This is what NYC can look forward to if Zohran Mamdani gets elected. Mandami repeatedly trashes America, failed to assimilate, and acting as a revolutionary against the country since his teenage arrival. His Marxist, Islamist, and Jew-hating ideologies echo terrorist lines. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Israel- Why is the Middle East Important? Neil Johnson and Jeff Pelletier
In this episode we Neil and I dscuss the "Occupied Territory" in Israel. Yes IN Israel. Over 50 years ago there was what was called the SIX DAY war. Part of the result of that conflict was what is now called The Occupied Territory. But lately Israel has renamed it Judea-Samaria. This is the region in Isreal where MOST of the Bible took place! But today it is risky to go there. Listen as Neil and Jeff explain how this might be the place where the next big conflict takes place.

Regardless, there is no immunity from criminal investigation or from being compelled to testify under oath—period. Furthermore, In On Power, negative power is coercive and aims to suppress individual identity, liberty, and sovereignty, often exercised by authoritarian regimes that treat people as servants to their cause. Its goal is to dominate society through centralized, unchecked control, stripping individuals of free will, self-worth, and the human spirit. To maintain this grip, such regimes restrict speech, manipulate language, punish independent thought, and promote conformity and fanaticism over curiosity and independence. Lastly, Israel is being attacked and accused of a deep Zionistic rhetoric that Israel has special interests regarding the spread of Zionism.

A Sermon for the Seventh Sunday after Trinity Hosea 14:1-9 & Romans 6:19-23 by William Klock I've been reading a great book by an Oxford classicist named Teresa Morgan. It's a study of the Greek and Latin words for faith and what they meant in the culture of the Greeks and Romans, the Jews, and in the early Church. It's a fascinating read and as we were getting ready to go camping last Sunday afternoon I tossed it in my bag. But then I stopped for a second, I panned across a wall of bookshelves, and my eyes settled on a copy of Ernest Cline's Ready Player One, which is—as far as I'm concerned—the ultimate novel written for Gen-X nerds who were born in the early Seventies and came of age in the Eighties. It's a sci-fi novel built around references to things like the Atari 2600, Dungeons & Dragons, Zork, and Pac-Man. I read it about ten years ago, but I decided to read it again this week with apologies to Dr. Morgan and her study of pistis and fides. And I enjoyed it the second time as much as the first. In the back of my mind, however, I was mulling over our Epistle from Romans 6 and how St. Paul writes about being slaves. That meant that one particular part of the book kind of jumped out at me. In the story there's an evil mega-corporation out to conquer and corrupt the virtual reality paradise where everyone in the future spends all their time. And this evil corporation has its fingers in everything, which means it's easy to end up owing it money. And when that happens, you're arrested and transported to headquarters where you become an indentured servant, slaving away at some menial and demeaning job until you die—because there's no way out. Between late fees, interest payments, charges for room and board and healthcare, your debt only grows, it never gets any smaller. And Cline does a pretty good job of making it sound utterly miserable—at least to me—because it reminded me of my days as a Mac tech when I had to do phone support, which is an utterly miserable job. But this book makes it ever more miserable: these indentured servants—slaves—did the phone support. The description hits close to home in a lot of ways and it makes you—or at least me—want to shout out, “Let my people go!” But like I said, I also had Romans 6 percolating away in the back of my brain too and I was asking myself: Would I rather be a slave like the Israelites in Egypt, breaking my back to make bricks without straw under the hot Mediterranean sun or having my brain turn to mush doing non-stop tech support for Innovative Online Industries? I don't know. What I do know is that being delivered from either one of those slaveries would completely change my outlook on life, the universe, and everything. And that's just how it was for Israel. The beginning of the Book of Exodus paints a bleak and desperate picture of Israel's turn of fortune—or, I should say, “providence” because, we learn as the story unfolds, the Lord was in control of the narrative all along. Jacob and his family went down to Egypt as honoured guests of Pharaoh, but four hundred years later a new Pharaoh turned them into slaves, making bricks for his grand building projects. Mixing mud and straw, filling moulds, baking them in the sun, then carrying those heavy loads of bricks to wherever they were needed. All the time baking themselves in that hot sun, day in and day out. Day in and day out with no rest. Eating out of fleshpots—which sounds pretty awful all by itself. Put yourself in that place. (Or doing phone support as a slave if that seems worse to you.) And then imagine how you would feel after the Lord came and delivered you from that slavery. And not just a simple jailbreak. Consider how the Lord came first to Moses and his people and reminded them that he was their God, the one who had made promises to their fathers and who had been sovereign over all of this all along. And the Lord then goes, through Moses, to Pharaoh. Again, this isn't a secret jailbreak in the dead of night. The Lord announced to the king, before his whole court, that Israel belonged to him, that Israel was his beloved son, and demanded Israel's release. And then the showdown began. The Lord sent ten plagues that exposed Pharaoh and his gods for the powerless frauds they really were. Defeated, Pharaoh finally let them go, but that wasn't the end of it. In one last ditch effort to recover his slaves and his dignity, Pharaoh went after the Israelites with his army and cornered them at the Red Sea. Israel had escaped the frying pan only to land in the fire. And then the Lord acted again. He bared his mighty arm and parted the waters of the sea so that his people could pass through on dry land. And when the Egyptian army tried to follow, the Lord drowned them all and left “mighty” Pharaoh, the greatest king on earth, powerless and pounding sand on the opposite shore. Again, it wasn't just a simple jailbreak under cover of darkness: You know, the Lord rescuing his people but with as little effort as possible. To the contrary, he showed his faithfulness and his love towards his people, but he also showed his glory. He brought the prison walls tumbling down in broad daylight for everyone to see. He humbled the greatest king and the most powerful gods in the known world. And he wasn't done. That was just the first act. From the Red Sea he led Isreal into the wilderness and fed her miraculously on manna and quail and water he caused to flow from a rock. He met her at Mount Sinai and there he made a formal covenant with her. “I will be your God and you will be my people.” And he gave them his law, a new way of life that would separate them from all the other peoples of the earth. They wouldn't just be the Lord's people. The law would allow them to be the people who lived with the Lord in their midst. A holy people, set apart. And so they built a tabernacle as a place of meeting with him and the Lord's glory descended like a cloud to fill it. And for a third act, the Lord led them into the land of Canaan and conquered it for them. The Lord gave them cities they hadn't built; wells they hadn't dug; and fields and vineyards they hadn't planted. All to show them his faithfulness, his love, his grace, and most of all his glory. The Lord made them the rescued-from-slavery people and every year they celebrated that identity and the great show of glory and faithfulness the Lord had made to make them that people. Each year they gathered as families and ate the Passover and as they did that they remembered who they were and what the Lord had done for them. And they were grateful. They loved the Lord with all their heart and soul and mind and strength. They loved their neighbours the way the Lord had loved them. They were righteous—meaning that they love and obeyed his law. His heart was their heart. They worshipped him and him alone. And, forget horses and chariots! They trusted in the Lord who had shown the power of his mighty arm when he delivered them from slavery. Or so you might expect. But then you read the history of Israel and it's mostly the opposite. They neglected the Passover and, not surprisingly, they forgot what the Lord had done for them. They forgot his faithfulness. They forgot his love. They forgot his grace. They forgot his glory. They neglected his covenant and his law. They worshipped other gods—the very gods defeated when the Lord conquered Canaan for them. And instead of trusting in the Lord and his mighty arm, they trusted in horses and chariots and politics and intrigue and money. And that's where our Old Testament lessons comes into this. The Lord sent the Prophet Hosea to the king and to the people of Israel with a message. At this point the kingdom had split: Judah in the south and Israel in the north. Judah was bad, but Israel was so bad they made Judah look like a goody-two-shoes. And Hosea's ministry began with an acted-out prophecy. The Lord told him to take a prostitute as his wife. Hosea obeyed. He married Gomer, a prostitute, probably from one of the pagan temples. And he loved her and cared for her and he had children with her. But repeatedly she left Hosea and returned to her life of prostitution. And each time, his heart broken, Hosea would go out and find her and bring her back to his home and love her. Through the prophet the Lord was saying to his people: I am Hosea. You're the prostitute. I loved you. I delivered you from Egypt. I gave you a land that was not your own and I caused you to prosper in it. I repeatedly defeated your enemies so that you could live at peace. But over and over you've prostituted yourselves to foreign gods and foreign kings who have done nothing for you other than to lead you away from me, your true love. Through the prophet the Lord stressed his faithfulness over against Israel's unfaithfulness. And so the Lord called to his people: Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for you have stumbled because of your iniquity. Take with you words and return to the Lord; say to him, “Take away all iniquity; accept what is good, and we will pay with bulls the vows of our lips. Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses; and we will say no more, ‘Our God,' to the work of our hands. In you the orphan finds mercy.” And the Lord promised: If they would do this. If they would repent and return to him: I will heal their apostasy; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them. I will be like the dew to Israel; he shall blossom like the lily; he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon; his shoots shall spread out; his beauty shall be like the olive, and his fragrance like Lebanon. They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow; they shall flourish like the grain; they shall blossom like the vine; their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon. But Israel had to leave off her idolatry. It was not Baal or Asherah who delivered them from Egypt and caused them to prosper in the land. It was the Lord. O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like an evergreen cypress; from me comes your fruit. Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them. One way or another the Lord would heal their apostasy. One way or another the people he had chosen as his own would reveal his glory before the watching nations. Either they would be faithful to him and he would prosper them beyond measure or he would punish their unfaithfulness and let the nations destroy them. And if you've read the books of Kings and Chronicles and the Prophets you know that the latter is what happened. Israel continued in her idolatry and was destroyed by the Assyrians, the tribes scattered and lost forever. About a hundred years later the same thing happened to Judah, but it was Babylon that defeated the people and destroyed Jerusalem and the temple. But in Judah's case, even though the people were exiled from the land, they kept their identity and were eventually allowed to return. They rebuilt Jerusalem and the temple. And, so far as the worship of pagan gods went, they'd learned their lesson. Never again was that kind of raw idolatry a problem for the people of Judah. And yet we've seen in some of our recent Gospel lessons that the people still failed to be faithful to the Lord. Last Sunday we heard Jesus condemn the Pharisees—the most righteous, the most covenantally faithful people around. Even they weren't as faithful and as righteous as they thought. Enter Jesus. God himself, incarnate, became the faithful Israelite. He perfectly submitted himself to the God of Israel, to his will, to his heart, to his law. His righteousness—which, if you remember from last Sunday, means his faithfulness to God's covenant, was perfect. And his fellow Jews killed him for it. They got the Romans to crucify him on their behalf. And that means that in Jesus, the son of God wasn't just incarnate as an Israelite, wasn't just the perfect Israelite in his covenant faithfulness, he even died the very death that the Israelites would face when the judgement he announced came to them a generation later. He very literally died the death that their unfaithfulness deserved. And just like Israel in Egypt, the fate of the son of God in Israel was all guided by providence. The Lord knew what he was doing. And in that, Jesus became a sacrifice for the sins of his people. If they trusted in him as the Messiah he claimed to be, they found forgiveness of their sins. But that's not all. The Lord also knew what he was doing in allowing sin and evil to concentrate themselves all in one place so that they could rise up and do their worst to Jesus. It was Pharaoh and the gods of Egypt all over again. If you know the story, you recognise that this how the Lord works. In the same way he allowed Israel to become enslaved to the most powerful king in the world who had the most powerful gods in the world, so the Lord allowed Jesus to go to the cross where the most powerful forces in creation would kill him. And he did it so that he could, once again, bare his mighty arm and raise Jesus back to life. In doing that he not only overturned the false verdict against him in his sham trial, but more importantly, he defeated sin and death the same way he defeated Pharaoh and his gods. Jesus was leading his people in an exodus—the exodus—the exodus that the old one, the one that shaped them as a people, the one they remembered every year at Passover, was but a foretaste. The old exodus happened so that the Lord could set a pattern and teach his people his loving and faithful character—so that he could prepare them for a future rescue, not just from a pagan king and his fake gods, but so that he could rescue them from sin and death. Not to lead them into a land of milk and honey, but to lead them into his new creation—into a world finally set to rights, a world where they could live forever in his presence. And as he did in that first exodus, so in the second, the Lord displayed his glory not just to his own people, but to the watching world. And so Jesus didn't just make a new way of covenant faithfulness for his own people, he made it for everyone who would see the glory of the God of Israel at the cross and at the empty tomb. For anyone who will trust that Jesus is Lord, who will trust that in his death and resurrection he has defeated sin and death, and who will pass through the waters of baptism to life with God—a life infused by God's own Spirit—on the other side. A life of righteousness, of covenant faithfulness that exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees. Brothers and Sisters, that glory displayed at the cross and the empty tomb is what has drawn each of us. It's faith in that glory and in the promise offered in our baptism that has taken us through those waters. And yet, like Israel of old, that vision of God's glory and of his loving faithfulness somehow fades from our vision. That vision of glory that once caused us, like the Israelites singing the Lord's praise on the shore of the Red Sea, to sing his praises ourselves, to joyfully proclaim the good news to the world, that motivated us covenant faithfulness—to a life of holiness—somehow it fades or maybe we just take our eyes off of it in the midst of our various trials and tribulations. And we lose our passion for the Lord, for holiness, for proclaiming his gospel. St. Paul saw it happening in the Roman church. The old divisions between Jew and Gentile were creeping back in. They were no longer pursuing holiness and gospel life the way they once had. And so he reminds them in Romans 6: “But now you have been set free from sin and enslaved to God, you have fruit for holiness. Its destination is the life of the age to come. The wages of sin, you see, are death; but God's free gift is the life of the age to come, in the Messiah, Jesus our Lord.” Brothers and Sisters, we need to be reminded of the glorious thing that God has done for us in Jesus. We were slaves to sin and death. We had no hope. But then we heard the story—the good news—about the mighty and glorious God of Israel, how he gave his son to die to redeem his people from their sins, how he raised him from death, and how his new creation has begun in this new people. How he's poured out his Spirit on them and made them a temple and a foretaste of the life and the world to come. A free gift. God's amazing gracious grace. And we believed and with joy we jumped into the waters of baptism. We left Pharaoh—we left sin and death—pounding sand over another escapee—and we met Jesus on the other side. And he filled us with his Spirit. And we set out with him to the promised land, to the New Jerusalem, to the life of the age to come. But somewhere along the way the joy and enthusiasm faded. We began to trade holiness for sin. We began to lag behind Jesus along the way, and began to look longingly at our old gods. We became apathetic about the gospel, about the good news that had once so captivated us. Brothers and Sisters, come to the Lord's Table this morning and be renewed. This is our Passover meal in which we recall the mighty saving deeds of our faithful, loving, gracious and glorious God. This is the meal that reminds us we were once hopelessly enslaved to sin and death, but that the God of all creation loves us so much that he gave his own and only son to die on our behalf. Remember that in him our sins have been forgiven. And remember that this meal is also God's future, pulled into the present. It's a reminder that death no longer has a hold on us, because in rising from the grave, Jesus defeated death as thoroughly as he defeated sin. The bread and wine here at the Table are a reminder of what God has done for us in Jesus and they are a reminder of the hope—the new world and the new life—that lies before us because we have trusted him. Let's pray: Lord of all power and might, the author and giver of all good things: Graft in our hearts the love of your Name; increase in us true religion; nourish us with all goodness; and bring forth in us the fruit of good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Hilfsorganisationen warnten monatelang – jetzt ist sie Realität: die Hungerkatastrophe in Gaza. Die WHO spricht von einer „komplett vermeidbaren Krise“. Während Tausende Tonnen Hilfsgüter an der Grenze lagern, werden weiterhin zu wenige LKW ins Gebiet gelassen. Dazu kommen hohe Temperaturen, akuter Wassermangel und fehlende sichere Unterkünfte. In dieser Folge sprechen Katrin Eigendorf, Elmar Theveßen und Ulf Röller mit ZDF-Korrespondent Luc Walpot in Tel Aviv über die Lage vor Ort, über Schuldzuweisungen, politische Verstrickungen – und über eine zentrale Frage, die immer mehr Experten stellen: Begeht Israel in Gaza Kriegsverbrechen? Der internationale Druck auf Israel und seine Verbündeten wächst. Gleichzeitig bleibt Deutschland vorsichtig, beruft sich auf historische Verantwortung. Macht es sich die deutsche Bundesregierung zu einfach? Und was könnte die internationale Gemeinschaft jetzt tun, um das Sterben in Gaza zu beenden? In “‘Der Trump Effekt”' ordnen die Hosts die wichtigsten Entwicklungen ein und erklären komplexe Zusammenhänge. Ein Podcast für alle, die verstehen wollen, warum die Welt seit Trump nicht mehr dieselbe ist – und was als Nächstes kommen könnte.

Pastor Ben walks us through the book of Zephaniah. The Lord calls out destruction on the land of Judah for their idolatry pagan worship. However, God calls us out the meek and humble, those who seek righteousness, they will be the remenant of Isreal and turn their trust back to Him. We should be upholding ourselves with humility, righteousness, and a gentle strength that comes from having trust in the Lord, not ourselves or other worldly forms of security.
A Sermon for the Sixth Sunday after Trinity St. Matthew 5:20-26 by William Klock In last Sunday's Gospel we were with Jesus and Peter in that fishing boat as Jesus preached to the crowd on the shore. I said that I had a pretty good ides the sorts of things Jesus was preaching, because both Matthew and Luke preserve versions of his favourite sermon about the kingdom. Today's Gospel gives us a snippet of Matthew's version of that sermon. In Matthew 5:20 Jesus says to the gathered crowd, “I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” In the words leading up to this, Jesus was preparing the people to hear this. He talks about being the salt of the earth and the light of the world and a city set on hill and a light held high on a lampstand for everyone to see. “That's how you must shine your light in front of people!” he says, “Then they'll see what wonderful things you do, and they'll give glory to your father in heaven.” Do your works, does you the way you live make people take notice and give glory to God? That's a tough one, isn't it? And then, just in case people might be thinking that Jesus came to do away with the law and the prophets: “Don't suppose that I came to destroy the law or the prophets,” Jesus said, “I didn't come to destroy them. I came to fulfil them! I'm telling you the truth: until heaven and earth disappear—and since that won't happen this just means never—not one stroke, not one dot, is going to disappear from the law until it's all come true. So anyone who relaxes a single one of these commandments, even the little ones, and teaches that to people, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. And anyone who does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” And this is where Jesus says those words, “Yes, let me tell you: unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never get into the kingdom of heaven.” Because Jesus was doing and saying so many things that a lot of people thought weren't right, I suspect some people thought that Jesus was teaching an easier way to the kingdom. The Pharisees were mad because he didn't seem to keep the law with the same zeal that they thought everyone should, but I suspect there were others who thought Jesus was offering them a way to God without all the spiritual rigor and rules. Just this week I found myself talking to someone who had left an orthodox, biblical church a few years ago and is now worshipping at a United Church. The reason: “They aren't so strict. They let people be themselves. They aren't so bound to the Bible.” In other words: The United Church offers a way to God that you can follow on your own terms. I suspect some people thought Jesus was doing a sort of First Century Jewish version of that. And so Jesus makes it clear that this is not the case. No, just the opposite in fact. Not even the Pharisees with all their zeal for torah, not even they meet the standard. Later in the sermon he'll go on to talk about the wide and narrow way that will lead Israel to destruction and the narrow gate that few can find and the narrow and difficult way beyond that leads to the kingdom. No, Jesus hasn't come to relax the standard. Not at all. But before we can go on we need to ask a couple of questions. When Jesus talks about “righteousness”, what does he mean? Well, for the Jews “righteousness” was bound up with torah, with the law and with God's covenant. A righteous person was someone who was faithful to God and to the covenant and that meant, fundamentally, that he was faithful in living the law that God had given his people. The name “Pharisee” means “separated one”. That's what Israel was supposed to be. The Lord had delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt to be his people and he gave them a law, he gave them torah, as a way of life that would separate them and that would make them distinct from every other people on earth. When the nations looked at Israel they were supposed to be moved to give glory to God. But for most of their history, the Israelites didn't do a very good job of being that separate and distinct people. They were selective in their obedience. They worshipped idols. And so just as he cast Adam and Eve out of the garden and out of his holy presence, the Lord cast out Israel and sent her in exile to Babylon. Righteousness means “covenant faithfulness” and if Israel wasn't going to be faithful to the covenant, then in order to be faithful himself to the covenant, the Lord would have enact the covenant curses that he promised would befall his people if they didn't keep their end of the covenant—if they were unrighteous. As I've said before fairly recently, the Pharisees knew all of this. More than that, they believed that the exile was, after a fashion, still ongoing. Because Israel was still ruled by pagans and because the Lord's presence had never returned to the temple. They desperately wanted an end to Roman rule and even more than that, they prayed for the Lord's return. But that wasn't going to happen as long as Israel was still unfaithful—still lacking in righteousness. So the Pharisees decided to set an example. They weren't just going to obey the law as best they could; they were going to live their whole lives as if they were priests in the temple. They wouldn't just keep themselves from sin. They'd keep themselves ritually pure at all times. They were ready for the Lord to return. If only they could get everyone in Israel just as ready! But not everyone in Israel was as interested in righteousness as they were. There were a lot of people who just weren't as serious about God's law as they were. But worse were the compromisers—the Jews who gradually assimilated to the pagan ways of the Greeks and Romans and the people who willingly and knowingly became traitors to the covenant: tax collectors and sinners. Think of it this way: The Pharisees saw themselves in the midst of a culture war. And they knew it wasn't the first time Israel had faced a culture war. And so their heroes were the righteous men of Israel's past culture wars. One of those heroes was Phinehas, one of Aaron's grandsons. In the book of Numbers we read how Balak, the King of Moab, had hired a prophet to curse the Israelites. But the prophet, Balaam couldn't do it. Every time he opened his mouth to curse the Israelites, the Lord caused blessings to spill out. So Balak, instead, sent a bunch of beautiful Moabite women to infiltrate the Israelite camp and to entice the men of Israel to worship the Canaanite god Baal with them. Isreal's first culture war. The men were enticed into sexual immorality and then into idolatry—those two always go hand-in-hand. But Phinehas, came upon one of the Israelite men in flagrante delicto with one of these women. Filled with holy zeal, Phinehas grabbed a spear and ran them both through together. That was the end of Israel's first culture war and Phinehas became a hero for his righteous zeal. But much more recently, the Pharisees looked back on the heroes of the Maccabean Revolt—about 160 years before. In those days Judah was ruled by Greeks. And the Greeks just sort of thought that because their culture was so superior to everyone else's, everyone would just assimilate given the chance. Think of Gus in My Big Fat Greek Wedding. “There are two kinds of people: Greeks and everyone who wish they was Greek.” But no matter how many temples or gymnasiums the Greeks built, the Jews wouldn't assimilate. Antiochus IV Epiphanes had enough of it and finally outlawed the law. If you circumcised your son, you and he would be executed. He defiled the Lord's altar by sacrificing a pig on it. In Second Maccabees we read a horrific story of seven brothers and their mother who were tortured and gruesomely martyred when they refused to eat pork. Jews were forced to offer sacrifices to Zeus. Mattathias Maccabeus was watching as one Jewish man caved into that pressure. The writer of First Maccabees tells us how Mattathias burned with zeal for the law, just like Phinehas had. He ran forward and killed the man at the altar, then turned and killed the King's soldier. That would kick off a revolt against the pagan Greeks. But the Maccabean revolutionaries didn't just go after their foreign rulers; like Mattathias they went after compromising Jews as well. They were the inspiration for the Pharisees. The Pharisees didn't have that kind of power. They couldn't force anyone to keep the law or to keep it better. But they had the same kind of zeal. They desperately wanted, they prayed for the Lord to return to Zion to destroy the Romans and all the other unrighteous pagans—and all the compromisers like the tax collectors and sinners in Israel, too. And—getting back to Jesus peaching on the hillside—and Jesus now says that even that kind of zeal, that kind of righteousness isn't enough to get folks into the kingdom. In other words, to the people who were coming to Jesus thinking he was making it easier—kind of like some modern liberal spirituality that you can shape to your own liking—Jesus says, “No. I didn't come to make it easier.” But then he condemns even the Pharisees. They were the most righteous people around and even they weren't going to make the cut. So what now? Imagine all the people holding their breath to hear what Jesus is going to say next. They really, really want to know. Before he ever started preaching, they'd seen him doing all the Messiah things: casting out demons, healing the sick and the blind and the deaf. They knew without a doubt that the God of Israel was somehow acting in and through Jesus, so they had to think that when he preached, he preached with authority and he spoke for God. He's got their attention now. Now they want to know what it means to be more righteous than even the Pharisees. So Jesus goes on and says, “You have heard it said to the people of old, ‘You shall not murder'; and anyone who commits murder shall be liable to judgement. But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgement; anyone who insults his brother with foul and abusive language will be liable to the lawcourt; and anyone who says, ‘You fool,' will be liable to the fires of Gehenna.” And Jesus keeps going on like this. If we skip down to 5:27—picking up just were today's Gospel ends—Jesus says something similar about adultery. “You have heard it said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you: everyone who gazes at a woman in order to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” On and on. Divorce falls in Jesus sites too: Divorce is wrong. Marriage is a life-long covenant. Tell the truth, he says, and you won't need to make oaths for people to believe you. The law commanded justice and put limits on retaliation, but Jesus says, “Don't resist evil with violence”, “turn the other cheek”. “When someone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat, too. When someone forces you to go one mile, go a second one with him.” And in verse 43 Jesus puts a cherry on top of all this. They knew that the law was about loving your neighbour, but then they got the idea that the only people who were their neighbours were their fellow Jews. Love your neighbours, yes, but hate your enemies—people like the Romans, the tax collectors, and the sinners who openly rejected God's law and covenant. Love your neighbours. Pray for God to smite your enemies. And Jesus says, “No! I tell you: love your enemies! Pray for people who persecute you!” Why? “So that you may be sons [and daughters] of your Father in heaven.” Do you want to have a share in the kingdom? Do you want to be a child of the Father? Do you want to know how to have a righteousness—a covenant faithfulness—greater than even the Pharisees? Do want people to glorify God when they see how you live? Then love the way that God loves. That's what righteousness has always been about: it's been about a people that conforms to the heart of God. Righteousness is about sinlessness, but it goes deeper than that and that's what the Pharisees and so many others in Israel had forgotten even though it was there all along: “Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and your neighbour as yourself.” Brothers and Sisters, this is what kingdom people look like in a culture war. They love the way God loves. This is the narrow gate, this is the difficult path that leads to the kingdom and life with God. It's hard. All we have to do is look around us. Things haven't changed much since Jesus preached this two thousand years ago. We're in the middle of a war ourselves and it seems like Christians are prone to the same two failures. There's a ditch on either side of the road. You fall into the ditch on this side when you give in and compromise. Whether it's the Judeans who went along with the Greeks, leaving their sons uncircumcised, eating pork, and making offerings to Zeus or the Christians today who give up and buy into the pagan world's notion that love is whatever you make it, anything goes, and we can all live and fellowship with God on our own terms. Brothers and Sisters, compromise with a godless and anti-gospel culture isn't the way. Jesus didn't come to make it easier to get into the kingdom, but there are a lot of people and churches today who think that the answer to the culture and to dwindling interest in the gospel is to lower the bar and to make it easier to think of yourself as a Christian. Appealing to the cultural moment might get you a few followers in the short term, but it will land you in the outer darkness, weeping and gnashing your teeth just as surely as the opposite error will. The opposite error—the ditch on the other side of the road—is Phariseeism. And that happens when we forget that the gospel wins not through violence and force but when Christians love the way that God loves. Brothers and Sisters, no amount of compelling, force, violence, or political power will ever move the heart of an unbeliever to give glory to God because of what they see in us. But in the midst of a culture war it's very easy for God's people to think that seizing the reigns of power is the answer. We'll do anything, compromise just about anything, team up with just about anyone no matter how ungodly they are, to get our hands on that power. And we can do it all with a zealousness like that of Phinehas or Mattathias that feels so right. We try to meld Caesar and Jesus together, forgetting that Caesars bloody and violent way is the opposite of the gospel, which conquers through love. You can't trust in Jesus and at the same trust in horses and chariots. You can't trust in Jesus and at the same time trust in political power. Jesus demands our allegiance and our trust—all of it and without compromise. And it's when we give him that full allegiance that we have the loving heart of God. It's when we're willing to follow Jesus as we turn the other cheek, as we give both our shirt and our coat, as we go the extra mile, even as we go to our own deaths, it's then that world takes notice and give glory to God. That's how the gospel captivates hearts and transforms the world. Brothers and Sisters, that's the narrow gate and the difficult path. Don't give up on righteousness when the going gets tough. And never forget that law is ultimately about loving God and loving our neighbours—everyone—the way God loves them—enough to give his own son. Love them as God does—even your worst enemy—even to point of sacrifice. That's how God once captivated your heart and it's how he will captivate theirs. Jesus stresses just how important this is. Going back to the end of our Gospel in Matthew 5:23 he says, “So, if you are coming to the altar with your gift and there you remember that your brother has a grievance against you, leave your gift right there in front of the altar, and go first and be reconciled to your brother. Then come back and offer your gift.” We probably miss the significance of this. To go to the temple in Jerusalem to make an offering to God was the peak of righteousness, of covenant faithfulness. This took precedence over everything else. No one. No. one. Would go to Jerusalem. And remember, Jesus is preaching in Galilee, a three day's journey from Jerusalem. No one would trek all that way, carrying their animal for sacrifice or buying one at an exorbitant price at the temple, wait their turn, and then standing there with the priest ready to make the sacrifice, suddenly realise they needed to go all the way back home to make something right with a brother or a sister. Yes, I think Jesus is using a bit of hyperbole here, but he wants to drive his point home, because this is how people—especially the Pharisees thought. If you were doing it for God, nothing else mattered. Think of the priest and the Levite in Jesus' parable, leaving a man for dead on the side of the road lest they become ritually impure. For all their talk of loving God, they'd forgotten just how much God loves us and they'd failed to live it out. That's why they grumbled when Jesus ate with tax collectors and sinners. They'd forgotten that all of heaven rejoices over a sinner who repents. No, says Jesus. Never think that you're honouring God if, at the same time, you're failing to love your neighbour the way God loves him. Never think you're doing God's work if, at the same time, you've compromised his call to faith and to faithfulness. Never think you're building the kingdom if, at the same time, you're compromising its principles. Instead, stop what you're doing and make things right. Go back and love your neighbour. Reconcile and make things right with him. Remember that you serve the God who gave his son out of love in order to reconcile sinful you to himself. Have that kind of love in your heart and let it shape every thing you do. Brothers and Sisters, every Sunday we recite those words of Jesus: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” Don't just mindlessly say those words. Be shaped by them. Love God and love your neighbour with everything you've got and then you will have that righteousness greater even than that of the scribes and the Pharisees. Let's pray: O God, you have prepared for those who love you such good things as surpass our understanding: Pour into our hearts such love towards you, that we, loving you above all things, may obtain your promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
On this episode we start off by talking about President Trump and his sidstepping of the Epstein list (interesting considering Bondi told him that he was on the list in May). The justice department is considering the subpoenaing the cabinet over the situation. Trump is pivoting and shifting the conversation to the Obama conspiracy from the 2016 election. At the same time, the Supreme Court has given him the ability to restructure the federal government as he sees fit, and with that he just fired three members of the product safety agency. Meanwhile Trump has implemented 15% tariffs on all EU countries, as well as a 500% tariff on any country that continues to buy oil from Russia, which is mostly BRICS countries. Speaking of BRICS, Turkey, a NATO and EU country, is trying to join BRICS, and has been turned down for the second year in a row! We then shift over to Isreal and the bombing of the only Catholic church in Gaza by the IDF. We then finish off by talking about the land mine incident in Cambodia that has lead to tensions with Thailand.To join in on the conversation next week, come to patreon.com/CajunKnightBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cult-of-conspiracy--5700337/support.

Today we start by talking about the assassination attempt on one of the candidates for Columbia's election. Next we discuss NATO countries possibly being forced to increase their military spending to 5% of their GDP and how likely that is. Along that conversational thread, Germany now has a permanent tank unit (the 45th) stationed in Lituania. We then shift over to disucc BRICS and a few key members' desire to reign supreme in the AI race, as well as the implications that we may face in the west as a result of this being realised. Finally we end with a clip from a debate at Oxford about how most, if any, of the Islamic/Arab states dont actually care about Palestine or the Palestinian people; and want to use them more as cannon foder to further their aims with Isreal. How does this then tie into the current situation with Iran?To join us every Wednesday at 9pm cst, come to patreon.com/CajunKnightBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cult-of-conspiracy--5700337/support.

Cool weekend weather for Father's Day weekend. An Air India flight crashed into a neighborhood; 241 passengers were killed as well as others on the ground. One lone passenger did survive the crash. Isreal launched an attack on Iran's nuclear and military sights. Iran's two highest ranking military officers have been killed. Closing arguments for the Karen Read trial start today. The judge ruled the defense cannot use third party culprit defense. A Jet Blue flight from Chicago to Boston slid off the runway at Boston Logan; no one was injured, but it caused a ground stop on all flights that afternoon. Oilers and Panthers played last night, the Oilers tied up the series with a win in overtime. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were in the crowd. Tom Brady is unveiling a bronze statue at Gillette Stadium on August 8th.
The entire facade crumbles when we learn to ask the right questions. Peace is not currently on the menu. The influencer flotilla is psyop operation. And, that's not Greta. Greece is helping the second flotilla. There will be diplomatic repercussions. Testing the waters in Gaza. The Israeli civilian victims. The UN says they committed crimes. Ukraine is on fire too. Programs cannot replicate programs. Evil counterfeits are not inventions. You are dangerous because you are uncontrolled. Elon is the lightning rod. Trump has done so much at great cost. Now that they're adrift, let's cut them loose. Remember to say what hasn't been said. What if Isreal was the most evil? The CCP runs the UN now. Turkey will be coming in hard. Counter-intel Islamafobia. Red string connections show unconscious links. They are pushing the collective to the breaking point. Stress pressure is a very cruel teacher. Evil is our creation, and we must judge it's fruits. It teaches us to see in the dark, and builds scaffolding for the truth. Did she say reherseauthority? Moving with the crowd does not mean safety. Beneath the showy performance is the truth. Those who do not choose must only adapt. Remember, when the programming wears off, love is the best operating code.
