Is Modern Israel The Same As Biblical Israel? Jonathan Cahn Responds!
I am so excited to bring you this one…
As you know if you’ve been around here for a while, this is a big Jonathan Cahn house! I love all of his work and we feature him often here.
So I was so excited to see him weigh in on the debate about Israel which seems to be building recently.
I’ve even asked some questions myself in prior articles…
No, I don’t believe in “Replacement Theology”.
No, I am not turning on Israel.
I have said time and time again that I believe the Bible makes it quite clear that Israel is special, chosen by God, and the Bible does explicitly state that anyone who blesses Israel will be blessed, and anyone who curses Israel will be cursed. It says it in at least two different spots and is very clear.
But I do think it’s fair to ask questions, like Tucker Carlson has done recently. And the main essence of his questions seem to be similar to some questions I had posed here, which is essentially to ask whether the modern Nation-state of Israel represented by the 6-pointed star is one and the same as Biblical Israel.
I think that’s a fair question, and I think as journalists who have been red-pilled Tucker and I tend to operate similarly.
And that’s because we’ve both realized (probably along with millions of you) that we’ve been lied to about almost everything…
We also know that one of Satan’s great tricks (one of his only tricks) is to simply counterfeit what God does.
So I don’t think it’s unfair or unreasonable to ask the questions Tucker is asking. Questions which we’ve also asked here.
Because if Satan counterfeits everything God does, isn’t it quite likely he would try to counterfeit Israel? Create a counterfeit version? Maybe have an evil family like the Rothschilds do it for you, that would sure be a great way to start, right? Then remove the Biblical image of the Menorah that God gave to Israel and replace it with what many believe is a demonic 6-pointed star, first taking root in the late 1800s and having no basis in the Bible of any kind?
I think those are all fair questions.
And honestly I think their rooted in a very good place. We want to do the right thing. We don’t want to be duped. We don’t want to be conned. We’ve realized we’ve been lied to about everything else in life, and so we’re skeptical here.
So I don’t view Tucker’s questions as malicious at all, he’s just a journalist searching for truth and wanting to make sure he doesn’t get duped along the way.
But now we go to Jonathan Cahn.
Spoiler alert: Cahn doesn’t agree with these questions at all, and honestly this is about the most worked up I can remember seeing him in a video. He did not hold back, and his opinion is unabashedly that Yes, modern Israel is the same as Biblical Israel.
I don’t fault anyone for asking questions and wanting to make sure they’re doing the right thing, but I also greatly value and appreciate Jonathan Cahn’s work and research, so I am really excited to share with you his very strong opinion on this topic.
Perhaps this will settle the debate once and for all?
I have to admit, I really found it very insightful. Thank you Jonathan!

Is the Abrahamic covenant still in effect with regard to Israel? Is Israel the fulfillment of biblical prophecy?
Has God replaced the Jewish people? And what does this all have to do with Tucker Carlson?

All right, let’s do it.
Tucker Carlson & Ted Cruz
Tucker Carlson went on the air with Senator Ted Cruz and attacked him over his support for Israel.
He challenged him with a belief that the Abrahamic covenant still applies to Israel— or it doesn’t apply to Israel at all. Let’s roll the clip.
Senator Ted Cruz:“Growing up in Sunday school, I was taught from the Bible, those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed. And from my perspective, I want to be on the blessing side of things. Those who bless the government of Israel— those who bless Israel is what it says. It doesn’t say the government of it. Says the nation of Israel. So that’s in the Bible. As a Christian, I believe that.”
Tucker Carlson:“Where is that?”
Senator Ted Cruz:“I can find it for you. I don’t have the scripture off the tip of my—”
Tucker Carlson:“You pull out the phone and use— it’s in Genesis. But so you’re quoting a Bible phrase. You don’t have context for it. You don’t know where in the Bible it is. But that’s like your theology. I’m confused. What does that even mean, Tucker? I’m a Christian. I want to know what you’re talking about.”
Senator Ted Cruz:“Okay. Where does my support for Israel come from? Number one, because biblically we are commanded to support Israel. But number two—”
Tucker Carlson:“Hold on.”
Senator Ted Cruz:“No, not hold on. You’re a senator and now you’re throwing out theology and I am a Christian and I am allowed to weigh in on this. We are commanded as Christians to support the government of Israel. We are commanded to support Israel and we’re told those who bless Israel will be blessed.”
Tucker Carlson:“But what? Hold on. Define Israel. This is important.”
Senator Ted Cruz:“Are you kidding? This is a majority Christian country. Define Israel? Do you not know what Israel is? That would be the country you’ve asked like 49 questions about. So that’s what Genesis ref— that’s what God is talking about, the nation of Israel.”
Tucker Carlson:“So is that the current borders, the current leadership? He’s talking about the political entity called Israel?”
Senator Ted Cruz:“He’s talking about the nation of Israel. Yeah. Nations exist and he is discussing a nation. A nation was the people of Israel.”
Tucker Carlson:“The nation referring to in Genesis— is that the same as the country run by Benjamin Netanyahu right now?”
Senator Ted Cruz:“Yes. Yes, it is.”
He’s clearly implying that the modern nation of Israel is not the same or not included in the Abrahamic covenant. That it doesn’t apply to that.
So you don’t have to bless Israel, therefore, which appears to go along with the worldview that he’s been advocating. And increasingly, he’s dwelling on Israel and the Jewish people and speaking in terms that tend to be negative.
Now, this is not about Tucker Carlson. It’s about something bigger. We got to pray for everybody. But it’s seeping into the modern conservative movement. It’s attempting to weave its way into the minds of evangelical Christians.
You can’t hate Israel if you know that Israel is God’s nation and the Abrahamic covenant specifically relates to it. Therefore, you got to break that with a notion that the modern nation of Israel has nothing to do with the Abrahamic covenant and not even the prophecies or purposes of God.
And this goes along with replacement theology. It also goes along with anti-semitism.
Replacement Theology
They’ll also say that Israel is made up of unbelievers. So, how can we support them? And the Jews are not the Jews.
Now, not everybody says it, but people say this. The Jews are not the Jews. The Jews of today are not the people of the Bible. And again, the Abrahamic covenant doesn’t apply to the modern nation of Israel. Or it doesn’t even apply to the Jewish people. Or God is finished with the Jew. Again, they’ve been replaced.
You can see where this is all heading.
If it keeps going, it’s going to seek to stop the support for Israel. Stop blessing Israel. Stop being for Israel.
Whether it’s under the banner of replacement theology or anti-Israel ideology or outright anti-semitism.
These arguments have been used by those in these camps, and they circulate on the internet and can confuse sincere Christians.
You see, once you separate Israel from the Abrahamic covenant, or the Jewish people from the Bible, you can do whatever you want with them.
See, that’s what Hitler did. You can make them your enemy and still call yourself a Christian. You know whose purpose would that serve? The enemy’s purpose. The devil’s purpose.
Of course, the idea of “let’s stop blessing Israel”— there are not many things the enemy would want to see more than that. That’s the ultimate point.
You know what’s already happened to the Democratic Party? The Democratic Party has recently, by statistics, become an anti-Israel party.
It’s the mission of the enemy to destroy the nation of Israel and all of God’s people.
So of course, he’s going to go after everything he can to get there. He’s already in the left and the woke, but now beware— he’s seeking entrance into the conservative movement and into the church because he knows that’s where the support for Israel is the strongest.
And if you can take that away, then America can stop supporting Israel, and Israel can be destroyed in his view.
Who are The Jewish People?
The Jewish people or the people of the state of Israel aren’t the same people as in the Bible. The other says the Jewish people are the same people, but God is finished with them.
You see, for 2,000 years, they’ve been persecuting the Jewish people over the fact that the Jewish people are the Jewish people. Now they’re going to persecute the Jewish people over the fact that they’re not the Jewish people.
Well, shouldn’t there be an apology issued first for attacking them for 2,000 years for being the Jewish people when you don’t think they are? Then they can work on an apology for attacking them for not being the Jewish people.
But the other faction says they are the Jewish people, but the Abrahamic covenant doesn’t apply to them or to Israel as a nation.
So what do all these have in common? Again, they’re all trying to break the bond between believers in Jesus, Messiah, and Israel and the Jewish people.
Is The Modern State of Israel Part of The Abrahamic Covenant?
The charge is the modern state of Israel part of the Abrahamic covenant? And if Israel isn’t made up of mostly believers, and if we don’t always agree with them or their government, we shouldn’t bless them.
Here’s the problem with that. Israel has existed in the form of a nation or state, a kingdom, a polity in one way or another from ancient times in the Bible.
So if God applied the Abrahamic covenant back then to the nation or state of Israel or Judah, then he certainly applies it to the nation or state of Israel now.
Israel in the days of Solomon wasn’t following God, most of the people, but it was still Israel and all God’s promises still applied.
Israel in the days of Jeremiah, same thing. Wasn’t following God, most of them, but it never stopped being Israel. And the promises didn’t stop either.
Israel in the days of Messiah Jesus— Yeshua— was under the Herods, who were ungodly, evil leaders. But it never stopped being Israel. And the promises of God were never revoked.
So, first, it doesn’t matter whether they believe or not yet. It doesn’t matter what its government is. If one agrees or disagrees with any policy, you don’t have to agree with every American government policy, or your own family, or your parents, or your children.
That has nothing to do with it. Every nation is imperfect. You stand with your family, your parents, your children. You bless them, you support them.
And so with Israel, the answer is Israel is Israel.
Even if one believed that the Abrahamic covenant was about the Jewish people as Jewish people, but not as Israel now, it still wouldn’t work because the Jewish people live in Israel.
So if someone just says, “Well, it’s the Jewish people, not Israel.” Well, in fact, with a possible exception of America, more Jewish people live in Israel now than anywhere else in the world.
So, if it applies to the Jewish people, their well-being depends on Israel. It’s contained there.
So if you’re blessing them, you’re blessing Israel. Well, if you’re blessing Israel, you’re blessing them. There’s no way around it.
The Abrahamic covenant applies to blessing or cursing Israel. If you bless Israel or the Jewish people, you’re going to be blessed. If you curse Israel or the Jewish people, you’re going to be cursed.
Christian Antisemitic Argument
I’ve heard this made by quote “Christian anti-semites,” though those two words really can’t go together. It’s this: when God told Abraham, “I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you”— which, by the way, is not in Genesis 16, as Tucker Carlson thought. It’s in Genesis 12.
He wasn’t talking about Israel or the Jewish people at all. He was only talking about Abraham. So it doesn’t apply.
You don’t have to bless them. You don’t have to bless the Jewish people.
Is that true? The short answer is no. It’s not true.
First, the context. The context is: I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You shall be a blessing. In you all will be blessed— the nations.
Well, then it says, I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you. In you, all the families of the earth will be blessed.
God said to Abraham, I will make of you a great nation. The promise is given in that context. A great nation. In you all the families of the earth will be blessed.
That never happened through one person. It happened afterwards. He didn’t touch all the families of the earth. His nation did.
It happened in the context only of Israel, the Jewish people. I will make you a great nation. The words can only apply to that.
You can’t separate them. If you bless Israel, you’re blessed. Curse Israel, you’re cursed.
And God repeats that blessing and cursing again and again in different forms to the children of Israel, of Abraham, the Jewish people.
Balaam’s Curse
In Numbers, long after Abraham, the nation of Israel coming out of Egypt in the wilderness— the prophet Balaam is hired to curse them as a people, as people are cursing them today.
He’s clearly talking about the entire nation, the nation of Israel. There’s no other way. It’s not just a man, Abraham, but the people of Israel.
And so what he says— listen to what he says. He says, Israel, he says, “Blessed is everyone who blesses you, and cursed is everyone who curses you.”
He’s talking to Israel right there. The Abrahamic covenant applies to Israel, the Jewish people, the nation of Israel until the end of this world.
And here’s the thing. Even if you didn’t have those scriptures, the rest of the Bible bears witness to that very thing. It’s implicit throughout the Bible.
God in one form or another says it: I’m going to punish those nations that come against you. I’ll fight against those who fight against you. I’ll destroy those who seek to destroy you. They’re going to be judged.
Thus, you curse Israel, you’re cursed. It’s implicit. You bless Israel, you’re going to be blessed.
Ancient World History
Look at world history. And what do you see? The nations or powers or kingdoms of the world that bless Israel are blessed. And those who curse Israel are cursed.
Egypt cursed Israel, tried to destroy it. At the time of the Exodus, what happened? It collapsed. The great empire became a second-rate power.
Assyria wiped out the northern kingdom of Israel. What happened? Assyria was wiped out.
Babylon crushed Israel. Not long afterward, Babylon was crushed.
Persia blessed Israel and was blessed. Then turned against it and fell.
The Spanish Empire, among the greatest of empires, prospered with the Jewish people. But then turned against the Jewish people. What happened? Spain collapsed. The empire became a second-rate power.
The British blessed the Jewish people and they were lifted up to the heights of world power and empire. But then in between the two world wars, they turned against the Jewish people. What happened? The British Empire collapsed and in effect was done.
What nation in the 20th and 21st century has blessed the Jewish people and Israel more than any other? America.
And what nation has become the most blessed and powerful nation on earth? America.
It’s no accident. It’s God’s word. The Abrahamic covenant. It’s a law. It’s like gravity. You can argue against it. You can oppose it. You can jump off a cliff. But gravity is going to have the last word.
So the Abrahamic covenant— people can say what they want, oppose it, but it’s going to have the last word. Just ask the mighty empires of the past.
And it’s not only for empires, it’s for people. Bless Israel, you’re going to be blessed. Curse Israel, you’re going to be cursed.
I’ve never met a person who cursed Israel, the Jewish people, hated them, and wasn’t cursed. I’ve never met a person who blessed Israel and the Jewish people and wasn’t in some way blessed.
Bless for your own sake. And by the way, for America’s sake. If America stops blessing Israel, I wouldn’t be worried about Israel. I’d be concerned about America.
Are The Jews of Today, The Jews of the Bible?
The blessings don’t apply. In fact, we don’t have to bless them. We can even hate them. This is used by anti-semites and by those who don’t know any better.
Some use what’s called the Khazar theory. That’s that a people called the Khazars, Turkish people, converted to Judaism in the Middle Ages and basically became those today we know as the Jews.
So the Jews of today, in other words, aren’t the Jews of the Bible.
Well, first, the Khazar theory has been totally debunked. What has been claimed to have happened never happened. There may have been some individuals who converted, but nothing like that legend happened or had any substance.
On top of that, recent genetic studies have totally disproven it. There was no measurable descent of the Jewish people that comes from the Khazars.
And so if the Jewish people are not the Jewish people, then the question has to be asked: then who actually are the Jewish people? Or where are the true Jewish people?
If so, if you have imposters walking around, then where are the real ones? And wouldn’t they sue for identity theft?
Where are the real Jewish people? Are they in hiding? Were they put on a witness protection program? Did they get beamed up into a spaceship?
Where are they? There were millions of them in the world in ancient times. Where did they all go? Nowhere. Apart from where the Jewish people are today.
If the Jewish people weren’t the Jewish people, the Jewish people would have to be somewhere else. And they’re nowhere else.
And they don’t exist except in the heads of these anti-Israel or radical or anti-semitic people.
This accusation also begs the question: then what about the people today who are known as the Jewish people?
The claim is they’re not really the Jewish people. Well, if the Jewish people are not the Jewish people, then who are they?
Not just then who are the Jewish people— they’re not there. But who are they? And where’d they come from?
While the other Jews were beamed up aboard the spaceship, where did all these other ones beam down from a spaceship to replace them?
And when did it all happen? When did the fake Jews come to the earth? When the real Jews weren’t looking?
Did the fake Jews lock the real Jews in a closet, put on yarmulkes, take their place? And who are they? Because they had to have come from somewhere.
We don’t have any other ancient people numbering in the millions who suddenly disappeared to become the Jews so they could turn up as that.
You see, you need a lot of disappearing acts and a lot of appearing acts. A lot of magic tricks to make it happen.
And that begs another question. For the last 2,000 years, the Jewish people have been persecuted as no other people have ever been persecuted. Driven from nation to nation, wandering the earth, hated, oppressed, slaughtered.
Who in their right mind would seek to pretend to be Jewish if they weren’t Jewish? So they can wander the earth and be persecuted and expelled and ravaged and massacred in one nation after the other?
No people would.
And guess what? It just happens to turn out by coincidence that these Jewish people who are the Jewish people now just happen to be the ones on earth who have Jewish traditions that go back to ancient Israel, Jewish blessings and prayers from ancient Israel, Jewish holidays from ancient Israel, Jewish language from ancient Israel.
On top of that, there’s a definite history that traces their root.
Like when you have a package to your house and you’ve got a tracking system. You know where the package is, when it left the warehouse, where it is, and when it comes to your door. It’s the same package.
Well, we’ve got the tracking on the Jewish people from ancient times to now. When they left the land, where they went on their route, and when they came back to Israel.
No, the Jewish people are actually the Jewish people. The same as in the Bible.
In fact, genetic technology has also proven it. The Jewish people’s DNA goes back to the Middle East. It’s actually closest to people who live in or around the land of Israel. Which is exactly what you’d expect if the Jewish people were in fact the Jewish people, which they are.
They even have DNA markers. The Jewish people have DNA markers, some of which have priestly markers for those who have the priestly line of Aaron that links them back to one man about 3,000 years ago— Aaron, the brother of Moses.
I’m one of those people. They can trace their history all the way back to Israel. Same culture, same language, same DNA.
Look, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck, flies like a duck, it’s a duck.
In this case, the duck is Jewish. In other words, the Jewish people are the Jewish people.
Modern Day of Israel
Now, the last charge. It’s made not only by anti-semites, anti-Israel factions as well, but even by those of replacement theology. And I’m not saying that they’re anti-semites.
It says this: the modern-day nation of Israel might be made up of Jewish people, but it has nothing to do with God or God’s plan or prophecy or anything else.
In other words, the modern nation of Israel just happened to happen. It happened because of Jewish people who weren’t believers. They just did it and there it is. They made this nation. Has nothing to do with God.
Well, you can— and you know how you can spot this argument often, at least in replacement theology? It’s that they made up a new term.
When somebody starts talking about “national Israel”— national— it’s a made-up, artificial word to support this theory.
If Israel is national Israel, then what is un-national Israel? The answer is— there’s no such thing.
Israel is defined in the Bible as a nation. To say national Israel as if there’s some other Israel makes no sense.
It comes up with an attempt to somehow separate Israel from being Israel by calling it “national.”
It’d be like saying I don’t have to pledge allegiance to America because America is not really America. It’s only national America.
The truth is, Israel is a nation. There’s no un-national Israel.
Whether we’re speaking of physical Israel or spiritual Israel, it doesn’t matter.
The argument has been: the Jewish people who came back to Israel weren’t believers. Therefore, it disqualifies them from being Israel.
Well, the majority of Israel has been made up of unbelievers for 2,000 years. And by the way, so has the majority of most nations.
The fact is, the majority of the British may not be believers. Does it mean they’re not British? Or the Italians? Are they not Italians?
But no one says that. Only with Israel.
Whether the majority of Israel are believers or not, it has nothing to do with their being Israel.
Whether your son or daughter is a believer has nothing to do with the fact that they’re your son and daughter.
So belief or unbelief doesn’t change the fact that they’re Israel.
Apostle Paul & Bible Prophecies
In fact, for most of the time you read about Israel in the word of God, the Bible, they weren’t majority true believers or true followers. But they were Israel.
Paul speaks of his unbelieving brothers and sisters, fellow Jewish people, as Israel. He says, “All Israel shall be saved in the end.”
Well, if all Israel is going to be saved, then all Israel that is not yet saved has to still be Israel.
Further, the scriptures prophesy that Israel, the Jewish people, will come back to their land and then they will come back to God.
So to argue that Israel has come back to the land largely in unbelief somehow nullifies the fact that it’s Israel is crazy, because it actually goes against what the Bible says.
The Bible says they’re going to come back first largely in unbelief, and then they’re going to come to God. They’re going to come to Messiah.
See, to try to separate the nation of Israel in the Middle East from Israel itself also goes against the word of God because the Bible says that God is in charge of that land.
And so he’s in charge of those who are dwelling there, and those who leave when they leave, and when they return.
In the Bible, it’s only God who brings Israel back to the land to become a nation.
The state of Israel— first it was God who brought them out of Egypt and brought them to the land, right? Nobody else.
The second time, when they were in exile in Babylon, it was God. It was prophesied. It was God who did it. God alone who caused them to come back and become a nation.
So, what about the third time, which is Israel right now?
Israel’s Return to The Land
This return— listen— was prophesied by God more than any other return or coming to the land, including the Exodus itself from Egypt.
God says in Jeremiah 16:“Therefore, behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be said, as the Lord lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. But as the Lord lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north (that would be Europe, Russia, all that), and from all the lands where he banished them. For I will restore them to their own land that I gave to their fathers.”
And listen to this. This is what God says. Jeremiah 31:“This is what the Lord says: Sing aloud with joy for Jacob. Be joyful with the chief of nations. Proclaim, give praise, and say, ‘Lord, save your people, the remnant of Israel.’ Behold, I am bringing them from the north country, and I will gather them from the remote parts of the earth, the ends of the earth. Among them are the blind and the lame, and the pregnant woman, and the one who’s in labor together. They will return here in a great assembly from the ends of the earth.”
Isaiah:“Do not fear, for I am with you, says the Lord. I will bring you Israel from the east and gather you from the west. I’ll say to the north, give them up; to the south, do not hold them back. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth.”
The prophecies are crystal clear. They will come back once more from the ends of the earth. God is the one who is doing it.
It says only once was Israel scattered to the ends of the earth— the Jewish people. That’s now. And it has manifested in world history exactly as God said in our own generation.
Only once were they gathered from the ends of the earth back to the land of Israel. And it has happened. It has happened now with the return of Israel according to the prophecies of the word of God.
So not only can it only be God who brings them back to the land of Israel, but this coming back by the hand of God was prophesied more than any other coming back in scripture.
And it’s even more than that because God prophesied from the beginning that the Jewish people would be scattered to the nations, wander the earth. And just about every Christian commentator who seeks to challenge the return of the people to the land will go along with that part of it— okay, he scattered them.
But then they’ll deny the rest of it— that he will gather them back. He has gathered them to the land. You can’t have one without the other. Unless you’re trying to do violence to the Bible or the word of God, the prophecy doesn’t stop.
The prophecy said God will scatter the children of Israel from Israel the land. And then it says the same God will gather the same people back from the nations to the same land.
You cannot have it both ways. You can’t have your cake and eat it. If God scattered the Jewish people from Israel to the nations, then God is the one who gathered them back from the nations to Israel.
And the scripture says it over and over again. He will scatter them and gather them.
This is what God himself says:“Hear the word of the Lord, you nations, declare it in the coastlands far off and say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him. He will keep Israel as a shepherd keeps his flock.’”
What is it saying? It is clearly saying that God who scatters the Jewish people is going to gather them back to the land of Israel. Same God. In fact, it says God who scatters them is going to gather them. Same people.
So whoever gathered back to the land of Israel is the same who God scattered and the same that God said he was going to gather them back. Same prophecy, same Israel, same people, same promise, same land.
This is the word of God.
Now compare the overwhelmingly clear voice and weight and biblical word and prophecy with the idea that these people just did it on their own and it had nothing to do with God. Even though God said he’d do it and it happened just the way he said he was going to do it.
But you’re saying that it wasn’t God. So when God wasn’t looking, he was distracted, he was looking the other way, these people just came in and fulfilled his word without him knowing it. They sneaked in the fulfillment of his word.
Was he on lunch break? On a Zoom call? What was that?
These people fulfilled the prophecy of what he said he was going to do when he wasn’t looking. And he looked back and he said, “Whoa, whoa, these people just sneaked in. They just came in and what’s going on here? They fulfilled the prophecy.”
Except they weren’t another people. They were the exact people that God said he was going to bring back to the very place, that very way.
And he didn’t leave any gaps. He didn’t leave any loophole that you can sneak in before it happens, before God brings them back. There’s no loophole that you can come back for a pre-return. Doesn’t happen.
Sounds ridiculous because it is ridiculous. It’s anti-biblical. God will scatter them to the ends of the earth. In the last days, God will gather them back from the ends of the earth.
And here’s the thing. To all of you who truly love the Lord, who love Messiah, love Jesus— Yeshua. He said to the Jewish people in Jerusalem, “You’ll only see me again when you say, ‘Baruch haba b’shem Adonai, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
So the Jewish people have to be back in the land of Israel. They have to be back in their holy city, Jerusalem, 1967.
They have to come back while they are not yet believing, so they can come to believe. And even, you could say, speak Hebrew so they can say, “Blessed is he.”
So all those who love Messiah and love his appearing, don’t get caught up with such unbiblical things. Don’t get poisoned. Don’t get influenced away from God.
But rejoice in the return of Israel into the world.
The Bible says he’s going to bring all nations against Israel. But we— we are not to be part of that. The people of God must not be part of that satanic end-time phenomenon.
But we are to stand with Israel. Whether you agree or not doesn’t matter. Stand with Israel. Pray for Israel. Rejoice with Israel. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
“They will prosper who love you.”
As Paul said— Paul, the Apostle Paul said, “I could almost wish I was accursed from God if it could mean the redemption, the salvation of my people.” That’s the heart of Paul. He didn’t condemn them. He wept for them.
And we’re to be like Messiah, like Jesus. To share his heart, his burden, and his love for his ancient people.
“Comfort my people. Speak kindly to Jerusalem. Pray for that peace. They will prosper who love you.”
And God says, I will bless you— you who bless them— and curse those who curse them.
Choose to be blessed, not to be cursed.
Now, who in your life would want to see this or needs to see this? Send them this. And make sure you don’t miss these special videos and the prophetic updates and prophetic words.
This is the only official channel.
And I’m going to give you a word to close in a moment. But remember, The Avatar is coming. It’s going to be the newest, the most explosive book I’ve written. It’s so explosive, it’s under wraps. Removes the veil behind everything. Coming out soon.
You can be the first here now to get it. And I believe they’re going to send it to you before it goes out to everybody. Just go online right now to Amazon, anywhere else. You can pre-order it. Just make sure the cover looks like this.
And also check out the Harbinger Graphic Novel, a prophetic explosion. I believe everybody you give it to is going to read it.
And lastly, the first-ever Book of Revelation and the Footsteps of Paul Book of Acts Super Tour that I’ve ever done with a two-day cruise to the Aegean Sea, to the island of Patmos where Revelation was, to Athens, Ephesus, Corinth, Pergamum.
Just Google Jonathan Khan, Book of Revelation Super Tour.
Final Word For You
Now the word for you. It is this:
It is for freedom that Messiah has set us free. And set you free. Stand firm, therefore, and don’t again submit to a yoke of slavery.
Until next time, this is Jonathan Khan. Stay strong in the Lord, my friend, and in the power of his might.
Shalom.
Now let’s go even deeper…
Why did God “choose” Israel in the first place?
There’s way more to it than you might have realized…
We go next to Dr. Michael S. Heiser:
Why Is God So Focused On Israel? Let Me Explain…
I just saw a question from a reader that I thought was so good that I wanted to answer it here for everyone...
Because it's something I've covered before and it is VITALLY important right now as seemingly End-Times events play out on the world stage.
The question is this: "Why is a God who created trillions of galaxies so focused on this one tiny spec of land here on Earth in the Middle East?"
It's a great question.
Let's set aside for a second whether there are trillions of galaxies or if space is "fake".
And let's rephrase the question a bit to say: "Why is an infinitely powerful God who created everything so focused on one small space of land that is somehow special?"
We can even rephrase it one additional way by instead of focusing on the land focusing on the people.
Same question just asked a little differently: "Why and how is an all powerful God who created all people seemingly taking sides with one group of people and one Country? Why does the Old Testament even command Moses and Caleb and Joshua and David to go in and kill everyone, even the women, children and animals?"
Seems a bit harsh, right?
There are very clear and rational answers to all those questions.
As to the last one, you need to read this article, which explains the Genesis 6:4 connection to the coming End-Times Great Deception:
My Take On The “Coming Great Deception”
And as to the other questions, you need to understand the THREE reasons our world is fallen.
Most know about the Snake in the Garden, but I bet you don't know the other two.
And when you understand the other two, then suddenly all of those questions above make perfect sense and your Bible will suddenly start to come alive.
Suddenly, the Old Testament will go from being confusing and weird, to the dots starting to connect all over the place.
I went into great detail in a prior post which I will now give to you here....please enjoy:
Why Israel? It's All About Cosmic Geography!
For the past few weeks, I've been on a strange YouTube kick of watching old Dr. Michael Heiser videos.
You know how once you watch one video on something, then YouTube recommends all of those same videos to you for the next two weeks?
And it's not "strange" because it's strange content, quite the contrary.
Heiser is one of the people who I could listen to for hours on end and be endlessly fascinated.
I hated school, but oddly I can learn from someone like Dr. Heiser for hours without interruption and take it in like a sponge.
So that's not the strange part.
The strange part is I have so much going on right now (running this website, for one) and I don't have enough time to get to everything, but I still found myself spending time listening to videos from Dr. Heiser.
But after the war has broken out in Israel, it now makes perfect sense.
Because I have a platform here that over 5 million people each month tune in to.
I don't take that responsibility lightly.
I try to do this job with excellence and with integrity, and a big part of that means simply publishing the truth!
That means not censoring stories the way the MSM does...
It means honestly researching and honestly reporting each story, even if it doesn't fit "my" narrative...
And it also means being able to decipher competing stories to FIND the truth in a sea of lies.
It's that last part that suddenly makes Dr. Heiser so relevant and now I see what I was irrationally captivated by those videos for the last two weeks -- it was so I would be prepared to navigate this propaganda war we find ourselves in and report to you the Biblical truth of what is going on here so we don't just blindly substitute SUPPORT ISRAEL in place of SUPPORT UKRAINE!
I know that last line may make many of you nervous, and so let me say clearly two things: (1) I absolutely support Israel. That's not up for negotiation. But (2) I am not Israel's keeper and neither are you and neither is America. YHWH is. Israel is Yahweh's portion. He, himself, defends Israel and he neither slumbers nor sleeps.
So I want to get that clear right out of the gate.
Now what I want to do next is introduce you to this idea of "Cosmic Geography".
This is the Bible your pastor probably never taught you on Sunday morning, but it's very real.
Dr. Heiser was famous for saying "I've never had an original thought in my life" meaning that all of his work is thoroughly sourced and credentialed by other scholars and by history.
That's important.
I'm not interested in following someone who has created something "new" in Christianity, that's very dangerous, but I am interested in learning from someone who says "this is what the Church taught for centuries until modern churches stopped teaching it."
Now you've got my attention.
Heiser's basic premise is if you ask a modern Christian "why is the world so messed up" they'd give you the normal answer: because sin entered the world through Adam and Even in the Garden of Eden.
But if you asked an ancient Israelite, they'd say there are three reasons!
Yes, you have the Garden of Eden event, thats #1.
But second, you have the Genesis 6:4 event where the Fallen Angels leave the spiritual realm, come to Earth, mate with women, and create the Nephilim, and it's these Nephilim that become the Giant Clans through most of the Old Testament.
Look it up, it's all in there.
The third event is the splitting up of Nations, which comes right after the Tower of Babel.
The Garden of Eden is taught in church a lot.
Genesis 6:4 is almost never taught in church, but we talk about it here.
But this third event is very rarely talked about.
Because it confuses pastors so they just skip over it.
It's Deuteronomy 32:8 which reads:
8 When the Most High divided their inheritance to the nations,
When He separated the sons of Adam,
He set the boundaries of the peoples
According to the number of the [c]children of Israel.
9 For the Lord’s portion is His people;
Jacob is the place of His inheritance.
Translation: that says God divided up the people of the world into Nations according to the "Sons of God" (i.e. the Principalities that Paul so often talks about in the New Testament).
These are real beings, and they were members of the Divine Council.
More on that in a moment.
Not co-equal gods, but certainly members of God's council (something else almost never taught in church).
If you look at the footnote of the quoted text above, some translations translate it "children of Israel" because they are not comfortable with "Sons of God", it creeps them out.
But look at the footnote Bible Gateway gives you on what the true language is:
Angels of God, or Sons of God.
The "DSS" refers to the Dead Sea Scrolls, which were only recently uncovered and which are widely believed by scholars to be one of the oldest and thus most reliable translations available.
That is the correct translation.
Then read verse 9: "But Israel is the LORD's portion".
In other words, let me sum it all up for you: God is angry with what people have done at Babel. They have not disbursed and spread out on the Earth the way he instructed them, so he divides them up into Nations and he assigns each a ruler -- an Angel or a Son of God.
But God keeps Israel for himself so that in the event all other Nations become corrupt (and they do), he can still fulfill his original plan that he had in the Garden of Eden through Israel.
I hope you're tracking with me, because you're going to see the News in an entirely new light when you understand this.
It's Ephesians 6:12: "12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
I know you've all read that verse many times, but does it make a lot more sense now?
Each Nation does indeed has a ruler over it, a "Principality".
It's Daniel 1013: "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, and I remained there with the kings of Persia."
I'm telling you, this stuff is all over your Bible, and once you start to see it and connect the dots, things come alive!
One more quote to pull it all home for you....
Psalm 82:
Psalm 82
A Plea for Justice
A Psalm of Asaph.
1 God has taken his place in the divine council;
in the midst of the gods he holds judgment:
2 “How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
3 Give justice to the weak and the orphan;
maintain the right of the lowly and the destitute.
4 Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”
5 They have neither knowledge nor understanding;
they walk around in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I say, “You are gods,
children of the Most High, all of you;
7 nevertheless, you shall die like mortals
and fall like any prince.”a]">[a]
8 Rise up, O God, judge the earth,
for all the nations belong to you!
If anything I have said so far makes you nervous, understand this is ALL in your Bible.
Have you ever read Psalm 82?
It connects with everything I just told you.
YHWH takes his place in the Divine Council, in the midst of the gods he holds judgment!
Don't be made at me, I didn't write that....Jesus did! It's in your Bible!
So does that mean we have multiple gods?
No.
But we do have multiple "Sons of God" that YHWH put on his Divine Council.
And you can't read that to just be the Trinity because in the remainder of the Psalm, these other "gods" (Elohim, simply meaning spiritual beings created by God living in the spiritual realm) they all turn evil and go bad.
Psalm 82 is recounting what happens after Deuteronomy 32.
God assigned the Nations of the world each to one of his members of his Divine Council.
He trusted them to rule fairly and justly but they all turn corrupt.
Sound familiar?
So they face judgment and God/YWHW carries out his original plan through HIS PORTION, which is Israel.
That's my effort to introduce this concept to you and for you to get a better understanding of what is happening with Israel right now on the world stage.
But of course Dr. Michael Heiser does it better than I ever could.
So for the visual learners out there, I have some videos for you.
The first is Dr. Heiser talking about this in a Q&A format:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiX4F_1gBuQ
If you loved that and want to go deeper, or if you'd prefer more of a teaching format over Q&A, I'll give you the absolute best.
This is Dr. Heiser's 4 Part Supernatual Seminar.
It covers everything I just told you but in much more detail and in the way only Dr. Heiser could do it.
Please enjoy -- and if any of this is resonating with your spirit, please share this article to people, friends, family members, or even pastors, that might need to see it.

After watching those videos (when you have time) keep reading as I unpack things further...
Here's more of what I wrote earlier today on this topic, pointing you through a sea of lies to where the Biblical truth is found:
The USA Does Not Keep Israel, YHWH Does!
Time for a little heart check....
And a little Biblical teaching.
I want to clear up a couple things because I think right now we are fighting so much devious propaganda that it's hard to know which was is up.
Anyone else feel like that?
They've boxed us into a corner, and that's why I say this is the most sinister FF propaganda attack I have ever witnessed.
But it's pretty simple to understand when you pause and lay it out.
Very simply, Ukraine is a massive money laundering operation.
We've covered that before.
That has now fallen apart.
First, the FTX part blew up.
Then, in recent weeks, public support for the continued funding of Ukraine has FINALLY dried up.
Fallen off a cliff, if you look at the statistics, and that's for Conservatives and Liberals.
People are done with it.
So the "People Who Run The World" (as Roseanne calls them) needed a new way to feed their War Machine.
Because after all, the War Machine is where all the money comes from.
So they just made one simple switch:
Pictures always explain things better than words ever could, don't they?
I actually have to applaud the genius of it.
What is the ONE country that Americans, and especially CONSERVATIVE Americans, will always support?
Israel.
So you swap out Ukraine for Israel and all of a sudden you get nonsense like this:
I have been very vocal the last few days about pointing this out and saying what I believe is the very natural, Constitutional and common sense statement: "NO MORE FUNDING TO ANY COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE USA!"
Do you know how much money we've spent to help Maui?
$700 per household.
And yet Billions upon Billions went to Ukraine and now soon will be going to Israel.
But in speaking out against using American tax dollars to fund the world, some think I am anti-Israel and that's where I need to do some clarification and some Biblical teaching.
Why do I have a flaming fire at the top of this article?
Because I need to introduce you to someone named YHWH: "For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God” (Deuteronomy 4:23-24).
And do you know what the Bible says about Israel?
It says a lot.
But it makes one thing very clear....
It never says the United States of America is to keep Israel safe, to be it's protector.
Sorry folks, not in the Bible.
No, it's much better than that!
Much more powerful!
Read Deuteronomy 32:9 -- "Israel is the LORD's portion..."
He divided up all the nations and gave them to the Sons of God, but Israel he kept for himself.
Biblical scholars call it "Cosmic Geography".
Read Psalm 121:
Psalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord watches over you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
It is the LORD who keeps Israel and watches over Israel, and he isn't slumbering or sleeping.
He's still on the throne, and spoiler alert, he doesn't need a bunch of corrupt War-Mongering politicians from America to help him out!
So let's be very clear....
I support and honor Israel.
But I am not Israel's defender, and neither is America.
That cheapens the role the Bible assigns to YHWH and I'm not all that interesting in trying to usurp his role.
It's why I wrote this earlier this morning:
Time to clear something up.
Do I support Israel? Absolutely!
Always have, always will.
But understand you are currently in the midst of the most devious FF propaganda event I have ever witnessed.
Ukraine support finally waned after 2 years. But many in America will support…

Time to clear something up.
Do I support Israel? Absolutely!
Always have, always will.
But understand you are currently in the midst of the most devious FF propaganda event I have ever witnessed.
Ukraine support finally waned after 2 years. But many in America will support Israel forever, until we are broke and desolute.
I bless Israel, I would never curse Israel. But understand the USA does not "keep" Israel. The Bible says GOD keeps Israel, and he neither slumbers nor sleeps. Read Psalm 121:4.
The USA is not Israel's keeper.
Israel belongs to YHWH. Read Deuteronomy 32:9-19. Israel is the LORD's portion.
USA does not guard Israel, The Most High does.
This is the most insidious propaganda I've ever had to navigate through, and whenever you find yourself in that position the absolute BEST thing you can do is find your north star center of truth.
And where do you find that?
In the Bible.
So that's what I've done here and I hope this helps you.
We can honor and support Israel while at the same time staying out of a brand new war and keeping American taxpayer dollars HOME and helping Americans!
Please share.
