In this segment: Chadwick criticizes America's tyrannical use of its superpower status, contrasting it with Yeshua's teaching on perfected love, which extends to loving one's enemies. He reiterates that vengeance belongs solely to God, urging believers to put down their swords and trust Yeshua to act.
Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Never been done in human history. Amazing. That tells you the God of Israel is alive and well, everybody. And His prophecies are true. Four million plus Jewish people have made Aliyah to the promised land. Amen. And then what does He say after that? The prophet afterwards, after what? After the fishermen have been released, at some time after that, the hunters are going to be released to hunt. That's what it says, to hunt you from every hill, every mountain, and out of every rock. Why? God tells you, "Because My eyes are on all of their ways. They are not hidden from My eyes. I will judge you double for what you've done in the promised land." Okay? So again, and then what does He say about the Gentiles? Okay, let's be fair. Both parties, Gentiles. He says, Jeremiah, everybody loves Jeremiah, right? Until they read Jeremiah 16. It talks about the Jewish people being fished, and then the ones that are not fished will be hunted back.
And then He talks about the Gentiles. "Gentiles will come to you, O Yah, and say, 'We have inherited nothing but lies from our fathers.'" Christians, I would really go meditate on Jeremiah 16, the end of the chapter, and understand what He's saying, that we, the Gentiles, the Christians, have inherited nothing but lies from our forefathers because of the ways of worship. Okay? So again, He's very fair, okay, with Jews and Gentiles, okay? He's not partial. Both parties get it together because the God of Israel is coming. The King of Israel is coming. He's not going to be partial. It's going to be belief in Yeshua, power of the Holy Spirit, which is the spirit of truth to lead you into all truth. And what is the truth? What did King David say the truth was? The Torah. What did King David say the life was? The Torah. What did King David say the way was? The Torah. What did Yeshua say in John 14:6?
"I am the way, the Torah, the truth, the Torah, the life, the Torah." Yeshua said that. "I am the way, the truth, and the life." Why did He say that? Because He is the living Torah. He is the way, the truth, and the life. He is the word of God made flesh.
John, chapter one, in the New Testament writings, is a very simple gospel account. He, Yeshua, is the Word made flesh. To my Christian friends, that means He is going to explain to you the deeper revelations of what the Torah is, so that we can be in spirit and in truth with Him. And with that, He says that He will make His abode, the Father and the Son, in John chapter 14 and 15. They will make their abode with us. Isn't that beautiful? Again, if you keep the commandments. Because if you love Him, every Christian will say, "I love Jesus." But Jesus says this: "If Christians love me, they will keep my commandments." He doesn't say "Christians." He says, "If you," or "If I." "If Chadwick loves me, he will keep my commandments. And if Chadwick does not, he will not." Okay? "If Chadwick abides in me, I will abide in him. And if he will not, I will not." Okay? So, I think people need to really go back and read John chapter 14 and chapter 15 to get the true heart posture of what Yeshua truly said about love and about how He knows if we love Him.
I can sit here and tell you guys, "I love Yeshua. I love Yeshua. I love Jesus. I love Jesus." All I want, and I do. But the way that He knows it is if we keep the commandments. John 14:15 is a very simple statement: "If Chadwick loves me," or "you love Him," "you and I will keep His commandments. And if we don't love Him, we won't." I mean, it's very simple. So again, please don't take that the wrong way, but that's what He says. That's what the Master does say. "Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy." (Luke 12:1) They tithe herbs and should have done the weightier matters of the Torah: judgment, mercy, and faith. Amen. And amen and amen. Thank you for that, Jess. And we hope you have a great Shabbat and a great weekend ahead. Very important. We're going to do—she reminded me of this—once I'm not sure when, but maybe in a month or two on the biblical calendar, we're going to start going through the gospel accounts.
We're just going to go through all of the gospel accounts. You know, that's it. We're going to go through word by word of the gospel accounts in the Hebrew. Okay? From the gospel accounts written in Hebrew, okay? We're going to go through them and go see what Yeshua truly said about all of these things we talk about all the time. All I'm doing is just quoting what He said and what the prophets say, you know. And people forget, "What did He say?" I'm not sure people are reading what Jesus truly said in the Gospels in the context that He was saying it in. You know, and that's why we're having a lot of people having a hard time when we have conversations about keeping the commandments, because they've been taught through the church, "No commandments," which is totally heresy, blasphemy, and an abomination. Okay? That people are saying that God's instructions are done away with. Just think about that sometimes.
I know you guys know these things, but meditate on that sometimes. Christianity thinks that they can tell the Father in heaven that they don't need His instructions to be good, to be righteous, to be holy, to be sanctified. They don't think they need it. And now go look at the Christians, right? So again, there's a great connection with being set apart and following the commandments of God. And you can very much tell that—how can I say this? I've got friends, and they're all my friends, but I can tell a huge difference when I talk to a friend who's crossed over into the true ways of God, worshiping the right way. The conversation's very smooth and silky through whatever topic we're talking about, whether it's calendar, feast days, prophecy, you name it. Covenants, it all goes together. It's very smooth and silky. Whenever I talk to people who have not crossed over, and that are my friends, and that I love, and I will always love, it's not as smooth, and it's not as silky.
I'm not saying it's a bad conversation, it's just not as smooth and not as silky. Why is that? Because the friends, me and you, and all of us who are trying to understand the calendar, the feast days, the covenants, the table of nations, and all these prerequisites that go into reading the Bible, we understand those things, then we're going to understand the Bible more because it's contingent upon understanding those things, right? So, they're called prerequisites. So, we have to have the prerequisites to read the Bible. If we don't have the prerequisites, then we're not going to understand it. If I gave you this book, and if you want a book, I'll give it to you, free ebook. But if I give you this book and I don't give you the table of contents, then you're just going to look through the book and be like, "This is just disorganized." If I give you the—you still might think that, okay, but anyhow, the point being, if I give you the table of contents, then you're going to know how to read the book and how what goes into it.
Well, God has given us prerequisites to read the Holy Bible. Okay? He doesn't say that in the Bible, but we just have to understand He created a calendar. He created days to worship on for Jesus to fulfill. Okay? First coming, second coming. He gave us three everlasting covenants that we need to understand that Jesus is going to fulfill: the Abrahamic, Davidic, and New Covenant. If we understand that, then we're going to understand the Bible. And then if we understand the table of nations, or Genesis 10, then we're going to understand what the prophets are prophesying through. How can you prophesy through when we don't understand the table of nations? Okay? That's when we start plugging in Russia, China, America. We don't—we're not plugging in Genesis 10 and understanding that the prophets would have only understood the biblical world. They would not have understood America or Australia or China or whatever, Russia.
They would not have understood that. They weren't in existence then. You see what I'm saying? So they would have only understood the biblical world, which is Turkey down through Libya to Sudan, Somalia, go over through the sea to Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, the Stans, and on around to Turkey. That Middle East, okay? And North Africa. That's it. That's the only thing they would have understood. So like I say, they're not called psychics. They're called prophets. Biblical prophets prophesying through something that they understood. Not, "I'm a psychic and I'm just predicting the future." No, they're not psychics. They're prophets. That means I'm going to prophesy through something that we can all understand if we have the understanding of what they understood. Kind of like with Paul. How can you understand Paul if you don't understand where he's coming from? Or how could I understand him if I don't understand where he's coming from?
If we don't understand the Torah, or a basic understanding of the Torah, a basic understanding of the prophets, then we're not going to understand the Apostle Paul. There's just no way to do that, because people would take him as a Christian and as a replacement theology writer. Okay? Which he would be the only one in the Bible doing that. Okay? Peter warns everybody, "Don't take Paul out of context to your own destruction, just like they twist the other scriptures." Okay? You can read that in 2 Peter chapter 3. Peter warns all people to be careful with Paul. Be educated, because they twist Paul, like they twist the other scriptures, to their own destruction, is what the Apostle Peter says. So, I would balance out Paul with Peter and make sure that we're not twisting Paul like a pretzel so that we can just be a bunch of rebels. Okay? And just rebellious. "I got Jesus. I've got the grace to break all the commandments." You don't.
You just don't. In Matthew 19, the rich ruler, the real estate ruler, rich guy came to Yeshua, came to the Savior of the world, and he says, "What do I have to do to inherit eternal life?" So he proposes a question to Yeshua: "What do I need to do to inherit eternal life?" Matthew 19, you can read it for yourself. What did Yeshua say to him? "Break all the commandments"? Did He say that? No. He wouldn't be the Jewish Messiah. He wouldn't be the Son of God. He'd be eliminated. He said, "Follow the commandments." Is what Yeshua told the rich ruler. The rich ruler said this, just like most of us would say because we're rebellious: "Which commandments?" Just like, you know, just like we do, right? We look, we look for a way to get out of the commandments, everybody. We look for a way to be rebellious, just like the rich ruler was. "What commandments?" And Yeshua said, "Do not murder. Do not commit adultery.
Do not..." He's talking about the Ten Commandments in the Torah. Okay? So, He's telling everybody to keep the commandments. Revelation: "Blessed are those who don't keep the commandments." No, it never said that. It never says, "Blessed are those who do not keep the commandments." It says, "Blessed are those who do keep the commandments." So, I'm not sure where Christianity thinks they can break all these commandments and it's going to be in the Tree of Life in New Jerusalem. Okay? Because it said, "Blessed are those." Revelation 22:14: "Blessed are those who do keep the commandments. Those who keep the commandments, they're the ones who enter the New Jerusalem and partake of the Tree of Life." Why? Because outside is the curse, the dogs, the sorcerers, the falsehood, the sexual immoral, and anyone who practices falsehood or lies. Now, go back to Jeremiah 16. "Gentiles, you will come to we've inherited nothing but lies." Go to Revelation 22.
There's a great correlation. So again, if we're educated with the Holy Bible, and I'm not saying I'm miseducated. I'm not. I'm trying to understand it, okay, every day. But if we understand how these things tie together, there's no way out of it, you know? There's no way out of keeping the commandments. It is a direct correlation to entering into eternal life is keeping God's commandments. Okay? Yeshua says that in Matthew 19. He says it again in Revelation 22. Everybody knows the Torah says that. Everybody knows Moses says that. Everybody knows the prophets say that. Everybody knows King David said that in the Psalms. Yeshua says that in the Gospels. The writers of the New Testament say that. Even Paul says that. What does he say in Romans 3:31? That's Paul's writings, the book to the Romans. He proposes a question: "Does your faith in Jesus nullify the Torah?" So, what does he ask him?
"Does your faith in Jesus get rid of the commandments of God? Void the Torah?" And what does he say? Romans 3:31, Paul: "No. Absolutely not." With an exclamation point, "Your faith and my faith establishes the Torah." What does that mean? That means that we're following the commandments and we're establishing these things on earth that He's going to do Himself. You see, the prerequisite of the Jewish Messiah, one of the major prerequisites of the Jewish Messiah in the Torah, in the Tanakh, Torah, prophets, and Psalms, is to put God's commandments in this earth. Isaiah 2 and Micah 4 confirm that. That is a major prerequisite to send God's Torah out to the nations so that they can obey. I mean, this is one of the major prerequisites. He has the restitution of all things. Everybody, that's part of it. God's ways. His ways were not at Exodus, okay, at Sinai. His ways are infinitely previous and infinitely eternal, infinitely before, infinitely after.
I don't even understand that, and I don't know if we can. But that's Him. Ways. His ways are out of His mouth. And how dare Christianity? How dare Christianity even think about it? Think about getting rid of the Torah. Why do I say that? Because Matthew 5:17-20: "Do not even think about it. Do not even imagine that I came to get rid of the Torah and the prophets. I did not come to get rid of it. I came to fulfill it before heaven and earth pass away." When is that? After the thousand-year reign. Before heaven and earth pass away. Every jot and tittle, that means everything, that means every letter, every word, will be fulfilled by Yeshua in the Torah and the prophets and the Psalms. Okay. So again, least and greatest will depend on who's keeping the commandments and teaching them. But don't be lazy. Don't say, "Well, I'll just be least because I'm disobedient. I just want to be least." Read verse 20: "For if your righteousness does not exceed the righteousness of the Pharisees and the Sadducees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." He clears it up because of what I just said.
He knows that there's going to be lazy people out there who just want the kingdom without showing Yeshua how much we love Him. By keeping the commandments, you're showing Him how much you do love Him. "If you love me, you will keep my commandments." Of course. I mean, if we keep the commandments, we're showing Him how much we love Him. Okay? And please understand that. And He says to be more righteous than the Pharisees and the Sadducees. Well, what were they doing? Oral traditions, traditions of men, traditions of men. Christians, traditions of men. And they were judged tremendously by the Romans in AD 70. My friends, every time in the Holy Bible, when God's people got out of alignment, bad things happened. Okay? They were destroyed twice. Okay? So Christians, you've got to understand this, okay? He's not partial, okay? Jews don't have to do every single thing in the Torah, and Christians just to get the lullaby.
Okay? No. Okay? That is false. Okay? Get in or get out. Get in the commandments or don't. Okay? And believe in Jesus all you want. But if you don't keep the commandments, He doesn't think you love Him. He just does not. And that's what He says, not what I say in John 14, verse 15. He says that Himself. Excuse me. "God doesn't want anyone to perish, but all to come to the knowledge of His Son, Jesus Christ." Amen. And amen. And amen. America is doomed if we don't repent and change our ways. And yeah, I mean, that's just where we are. And again, there's a lot of people that are doing a lot of good works out there, you know, with abortion, with homosexuality, with trying to get these things overturned and changed, and I'm with them, you know. But there's too many people that are for it, you know. And again, give President Trump credit for getting the Supreme Court people, whether you like them or not, just on this one topic, abortion.
And give the president credit, and also the Supreme Court credit, whether they were doing it for good or whatever. Let's give them credit for credit's sake, that they got that overturned in the law books. Okay? Abortion in the federal law books is not there. It's to the states. But unfortunately, the states, the majority of them, they still want abortion. They want more murder. So again, now it's to the people. So we can't blame it on the government, everybody. You can't blame it on the government. You've got to blame it on the citizens now, because the citizens of the states are the ones who want this stuff. And you want it, you're gonna get it, you know. So again, there. And then you've got the homosexuality law that is in the federal law books. So again, that's something that all presidents should have to work on, that are godly presidents, that should work on to understand that our nation with homosexuality will not be blessed.
We just won't. I love people. I love all people, including the homosexuals. I don't agree with their lifestyle. And like I've said before, they probably wouldn't agree with my lifestyle that I was in. I wasn't a homosexual, but I'm sure they wouldn't agree with my lifestyle either before I was born again. So I love them, but they need to repent and come out of that for their own sake. And then also for our country. Okay? Because I'm like this, man. If somebody wants to go be gay, go be gay. Just don't try to change all our laws. I mean, I don't want that, and I don't support that, and I wish they would be. But again, everybody has free will to do what they want to do on this earth. And if somebody wants to be gay, go be gay. But just don't bring our children into it. Don't try to change our laws. Don't try to train gay rights. All this stuff that gets into the demonic of everybody else.
Just go be gay and go be gay. Okay? So I'm like that with really everything. Okay? If somebody wants to go do something, go do it. Just don't bring everybody else involved in it, especially the children. All this trans stuff and all this stuff. No, totally demonic. That will get you the sword quickly. So again, America's got a lot of work to do, like all the other nations do. Well, like Israel does as well. Israel's got the same problems we've got. Homosexuality, abortion everywhere. I mean, so all countries. Well, I can't say that except for about four or five African countries. They want abortion and they want to murder the kids. So, good for those African nations over there. May God bless them. You know, Uganda, Kenya, and others that don't want this stuff and they don't want a part of this and their politicians do stand up against this. Pretty amazing. I've never seen politicians do that recently.
