FOR THE STATE OF ISRAEL AND THE
HOSTAGES ON OCTOBER 7TH AND TO
STAND AGAINST GROWING ANTI
AROUND THE WORLD.
I THINK WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS

RALLY.
WHAT'S IS HOW MANY PEOPLE SHOW
UP.
THIS IS THIS IS A NUMBERS A
NUMBERS GAME.
ORGANIZERS SAY THERE IS IS A
NEED FOR A PUBLIC STAND WITH
ISRAEL AS BLATANT JEW HATRED
RISING ACROSS AMERICA.
FBI DIRECTOR CHRISTOPHER WRAY
RECENTLY TELLING CONGRESS THAT
ANTI-SEMITISM IS HISTORIC
LEVELS IN THE UNITED STATES.
A LOT OF WHAT WHAT WE ARE
DOING WITH THIS EVENT ON
TUESDAY IS TO SHOW THE WORLD TO
SHOW AMERICA, TO SHOW CONGRESS
AND TO SHOW THE WHITE HOUSE
THAT THE VAST, VAST MAJORITY OF
AMERICANS STAND WITH ISRAEL AND
NOT WITH THESE HAMAS
SYMPATHIZERS WHO ARE DRESSING
LIKE TERRORISTS AND MINIMIZING
AND RATIONALIZING THE TERROR
THAT HAS BEFALLEN ISRAEL.
PEOPLE ARE TRAVELING FROM
ALL OVER THE COUNTRY TO GATHER
IN D.C. INCLUDING THIS GROUP
TAKING A BUS FROM REGENT
UNIVERSITY.
I'M REALLY, REALLY HAPPY TO
BE ON A CAMPUS LOVES ISRAEL AND
THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT ANTI-SEMITISM OR VIOLENCE
ON OUR CAMPUS THAT ARE
ADMINISTERED NATION IS DOING
SUCH A GOOD JOB AND TAKING SUCH
A CLEAR STANCE ON ISRAEL KNOW
THAT THEY'RE GOD'S CHOSEN
PEOPLE IN THE BIBLE.
AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO STAND
FOR WHAT WE KNOW IS RIGHT AND
WHAT'S BIBLICAL.
PRO-PALESTINIAN MARCHES LIKE
THIS ONE IN WASHINGTON D.C.
RECENTLY AND ON US COLLEGE
CAMPUSES ARE RAISING CONCERNS
ABOUT THE LEVEL OF
ANTI-SEMITISM IN AMERICA.

OUR LIFETIME.

ENCOURAGEMENT AS MORE THAN

ISRAELIS?
AHEAD OF THE D.C. RALLY
CHRISTIANS GATHERED AT THE
ISRAELI EMBASSY TO VIEW
UNEDITED VIDEO OF THE HORRIFIC
HAMAS ATTACKS ON OCTOBER 7TH.
I CAME TODAY TO GET INSIDE
AND I GOT SOME REAL INSIGHT ON
THE UGLINESS BRUTALITY.
I'VE HEARD ABOUT IT BUT I HAVE
NOW SEEN IT FIRSTHAND AND I HAD
TO COME AND BEAR WITNESS TO IT.
NOW I'M GOING TO GO GO TELL
EVERYBODY I CAN WHAT I'VE
LEARNED AND IT'S IMPORTANT THAT
WE STAND WITH ISRAEL.
EVENT ORGANIZERS TELL CBN
THEY ARE IN CONSTANT CONTACT
WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT TO ADDRESS
SECURITY CONCERNS AROUND
TODAY'S EVENT, ADDING THERE
WILL BE BE METAL DETECTORS AND
HUNDREDS OF POLICE OFFICERS
PRESENT.
ABIGAIL ROBERTSON, CBN
NEWS FOR MORE ON THIS STORY,
JOINING US NOW FROM OUR D.C.
BUREAU IS RABBI PENNY DONNER OF
THE BEVERLY HILLS SYNAGOGUE.
RABBI, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
JOINING WITH US.
THANK YOU, GORDON IT'S A
PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU AND I
APPRECIATE BEING ON YOUR
PROGRAM VERY, VERY MUCH AND I
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
HELP ME.
IT'S LIKE THE WORLD HAS BEEN
TURNED UPSIDE DOWN.
YOU WOULD THINK THAT EVERYONE
WOULD BE SOLIDLY ON THE SIDE OF
AFTER A HORRIFIC TERRORIST
ATTACK BUT BUT IT DOESN'T SEEM
TO BE THE CASE.
HOW DID WE GET FLIPPED UPSIDE?
WELL, YOU KNOW THAT THE
FORCES OF EVIL HAVE A VERY
POWERFUL HOLD ON THE HUMANS
SPIRIT.
AND UNLESS YOU FIND GOD AND YOU
FIND GOD IN THE RIGHT WAY THOSE
FORCES OF EVIL WILL TWIST AND
DISTORT.
WHAT IS SO OBVIOUSLY TRUE?
WE KNOW THAT WE LIVE IN THE
MESSIANIC ERA.
WE KNOW THAT WE'RE HEADING
TOWARDS THE FINAL TRIUMPH FOR
HUMANITY.
AND IN THAT PERIOD OF TIME AND
THE PERIOD OF TIME THAT WE FIND
OURSELVES IN AT THE MOMENT,
THERE ARE GOING TO BE MANY
PEOPLE BLINDED TO THE TRUTH AND
CANNOT SEE WHAT IS REALITY.
WHAT WOULD YOU TELL JEWISH
PEOPLE TODAY?
WHAT WOULD YOUR ADVICE BE TO
THEM?
MY ADVICE IS FEAR NOT.
WE KNOW THE END OF THE STORY.
THE END OF THE STORY IS THAT
GOD IS WITH HIS PEOPLE AND WITH
HIS PEOPLE'S FRIENDS.
AND OF COURSE WE THANK
CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY AND ALL OF
YOUR VIEWERS AND ALL THOSE WHO
HOLD HANDS AND STAND SHOULDER
TO SHOULDER WITH THE JEWS AND
WITH ISRAEL.
WE APPRECIATE THAT VERY MUCH.
ARE YOU SAYING I'LL USE A
CHRISTIAN TERM OF REVIVAL IN
THE JEWISH COMMUNITY?
THE PHRASE IS YOU A PRACTICING
JEW.
ARE YOU SEEING AN INCREASE
IN IN ATTENDANCE AT SYNAGOGUE?
ARE YOU SEEING AN INCREASE IN
THE PRACTICE?
I'M HEARING FROM ALL MY
COLLEAGUES THAT THERE IS AN
UNPRECEDENTED UNITY AMONG THE
JEWISH PEOPLE THERE IS.
THERE ARE OF COURSE JEWS WHO
ARE ON WHO JOIN FORCES WITH
PROPEL PRO-HAMAS GROUPS.
BUT THE VAST MAJORITY OF
JEWS GOING TO SEE TODAY IN
WASHINGTON ARE HEART AND SOUL
TO THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF
ISRAEL AND THE SAFETY AND
SECURITY OF JEWS ACROSS THE
WORLD.
AND WE'RE GOING TO RALLY
TOGETHER AND WE'RE GOING TO
COME TOGETHER IN A GREAT MOMENT
FOR GOD AND IN A GREAT FOR
HUMANITY.
WELL, YOU WERE BORN AND
RAISED IN LONDON OBVIOUS FROM
YOUR ACCENT AND LONDON IS IS
CERTAINLY SEEING AN INCREDIBLE
DISPLAY OF DEMONSTRATIONS.
BRITAIN'S CHIEF RABBI SAID THE
JEWISH PEOPLE THERE ARE NOW
MORE AFRAID THAN ANY TIME SINCE
WORLD WAR.
AND TELL EXPLAIN THIS TO US.
.
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
I THINK THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE
MUSLIMS UNFORTUNATELY IN THE UK
WHO HAVE NO SENSE OF THE
REALITY OF THE SITUATION IN
ISRAEL.
I MEAN LET'S FACE IT ISRAEL IS
A IS A MULTICULTURAL COUNTRY.
YOU'VE BEEN THERE AND YOU KNOW
THAT THE 20% OF THE POPULATION
IN ISRAEL ARE ARABS DESCENDED
FROM THOSE WHO LIVED IN THE
HOLY LAND BEFORE THE CREATION
OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL AND
THEY'VE SETTLED THERE.
THEY HAVE LIVES THERE.
THEY ARE MEMBERS OF THE
PARLIAMENT.
THEY ARE AND THEY ARE JUDGES.
THEY ARE DOCTORS AND THEY
ARE TOTALLY INVOLVED AND
INTEGRATED INTO THE LIFE OF
ISRAEL.
BUT MUSLIMS LIVING OUTSIDE OF
ISRAEL WHO'VE NEVER BEEN THERE
ARE FED LIES AND.
THOSE LIES
THEY TAKE IT OUT ON JEWS
BECAUSE.
THEY ASSOCIATE ANYTHING THAT'S
NEGATIVE ABOUT ISRAEL WITH JEWS
WHO LIVE IN THE LOCAL
COMMUNITIES WHEREVER THEY ARE.
AND THEY'RE BEGINNING JEWS
AND THAT OF COURSE IS EXTREMELY
FRIGHTENING AND WE SHOULDN'T
THINK THAT WE ARE IMMUNE HERE
IN THE UNITED STATES.
SADLY, WE'VE SEEN MANY CASES OF
ANTI-SEMITISM AND KNOW THE RISE
IN ANTI-SEMITIC INCIDENTS.
THE UNITED STATES IS ITSELF
EXTREMELY WORRYING.
YOU HAVE A MESSAGE FOR HAMAS
AND ANYONE SUPPORTING.
MY MESSAGE TO HAMAS IS
ALREADY LOST.
SURRENDER NOW BEFORE THINGS GET
WORSE AND IT'S TIME TO GIVE UP
YOUR SILLY AND YOUR EVIL WAYS
AND TO ALLOW MATTERS TO TAKE
COURSE IN THE WAY THAT THE GOD
WANTS THEM COURSE.
AND THE HOSTAGES MUST RELEASED.
YOU MUST RELINQUISH YOUR HOLD
OVER THE POPULATION OF GAZA.
YOU HAVE HELD THEM CAPTIVE FOR
16 YEARS.
NOW YOU'VE GOT ISRAELI HOSTAGES
AND.
FOREIGN HOSTAGES AS WELL.
LET THEM GO.
IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GIVE WAY
AND ALLOW THE FORCES OF GOOD
TAKE THIS STORY FORWARD.
WELL, YOUR SON IS NOW AN
RESERVIST AND IS NOW CALLED UP
SO HE IS SERVING AND LIKE
THOUSANDS OF OTHERS RESPONDING
TO THAT CALL, HE SAYS IT'S ONE
OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISIONS
OF HIS LIFE.
WHAT IS HIS RESPONSE?
WHAT IS THE RESPONSE OF HIS
GENERATION ABOUT THE FUTURE OF
ISRAEL?
HE IS AN INSPIRATION TO ALL.
HE WAS AS YOU KNOW LAST WEEK WE
WERE TOGETHER IN JERUSALEM,
YOUR STUDIOS IN JERUSALEM
TOGETHER WITH CHRIS MITCHELL
AND.
HE WAS SO INSPIRING.
HE SPOKE ABOUT HOW HIS LIFE WAS
ALWAYS LEADING TO THIS MOMENT
WHEN HE COULD DEFEND PEOPLE AND
WHEN HE COULD BE THERE TO
DEFEND THE HOLY LAND THE
PROMISED LAND.
AND THERE ARE MANY OTHERS.
HE'S TOGETHER A FRIEND
MORDECHAI WHO CAME ACROSS FROM
THE UNITED STATES BACK HE'D
ALREADY LEFT THE ARMY BUT CAME
BACK TO DO RESERVE FOR THE IDF
AND THOUSANDS OF OTHERS.
THE WORLD ARE TO DEFEND.
AND AT HIS AGE, YOU KNOW,
I'M NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT
PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING IN THE
ARMY OF COURSE THERE'S MANY WHO
ARE DOING THOSE BUT THERE'S
PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME TO
VOLUNTEER TO PICK FRUITS AT
FARMS WHICH YOU KNOW, THEY
DON'T HAVE THE PERSONNEL TO DO
THAT BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE HAVE
LEFT OR PEOPLE HAVE GONE UP FOR
RESERVE DUTY.
THOSE ACROSS THE WORLD IN
COLLEGES AND ON COLLEGE
CAMPUSES HAVE BEEN FIRED UP TO
DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO SPEAK
UP FOR ISRAEL AND TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE THE TRUTH, THE
NARRATIVE THAT IS ACTUALLY THE
POSITIVE NARRATIVE ABOUT WHAT
THE FUTURE FOR ISRAEL AND FOR
THE JEWISH PEOPLE IS BEING IS
BEING PUT OUT THERE.
AND I THINK THAT MY SON IS JUST
ONE OF SO MANY.
WE OF COURSE ARE PROUD OF HIM.
HIS PARENTS BUT WE ARE PROUD OF
ALL THE MANY JEWS AND
CHRISTIANS OF HIS AGE WHO KNOW
WHAT THE TRUTH IS AND ARE
WILLING TO STAND UP FOR IT.
WHAT WOULD YOU TELL
CHRISTIANS TODAY AND?
WHAT DOES TODAY AT TODAY'S
RALLY SAY CHRISTIANS THAT COME
ATTEND THIS RALLY TO STAND WITH
ISRAEL, TO STAND WITH THE
JEWISH?
WHAT WHAT WOULD YOU TELL THEM
AND HOW IS THEIR EXAMPLE THEIR
EXAMPLE AN EXAMPLE TO WORLD.
FOR ME AND I'VE SAID THIS
MANY TIMES BEFORE.
ONE OF THE GREAT MIRACLES OF
MODERNITY IS THE BROTHERHOOD
JEWS AND CHRISTIANS FOR SO MANY
CENTURIES CHRISTIANS PERSECUTED
JEWS.
BUT SINCE THE CREATION OF THE
STATE OF ISRAEL THERE'S BEEN
THIS COMING TOGETHER.
WE ALL KNOW THAT WE ARE FACING
A CONCLUSION THE TO THE HUMAN
STORY WITH THE MESSIANIC ERA
ALMOST UPON US.
WE BOTH JEW AND CHRISTIAN
FORWARD TO THE SAME DAY TO THE
DAY WHEN MESSIAH COMES AND HERE
WE ARE TODAY TOGETHER TO MAKE
SURE THAT OUR VOICES ARE HEARD
THAT THE VOICE OF TRUTH IS
HEARD, THAT THE VOICE OF GOD IS
HEARD FOR ALL TO HEAR AND
CHRISTIANS AND JEWS COMING
TOGETHER.
THIS IS NOTHING SHORT OF
MIRACULOUS AS WE ALL KNOW AND
WE SHOULD CELEBRATE THAT MOMENT
AND THIS COMING TOGETHER IS
SOMETHING REALLY TRULY TO BE
CELEBRATED IN THE HIGHEST
POSSIBLE WAY.
I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE LET'S
COME TOGETHER AND LET'S LET'S
RECOGNIZE ISRAEL LET'S STAND
WITH OUR JEWISH BROTHERS AND
SISTERS.
IT'S TIME FOR STAND AND THIS IS
OUR MOMENT AND OUR GENERATION
DO JUST THAT.
WELL, RABBI, GO AHEAD.
WE'RE LIVING ONE.
ONE MORE THING.
WE ARE LIVING IN A MOMENT OF.
IT'S AND IT'S A BIBLICAL
PROPORTIONS AND I CANNOT TELL
YOU HOW MUCH WE APPRECIATE THE
CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY WHO WHO ARE
ALONGSIDE FOR THIS MOMENT AND
HOW MUCH IT MEANS TO US AND.
AND WE ARE GRATEFUL TO YOU ALL
OF YOU THOSE WHO ARE WITH US IN
SPIRIT AND THOSE WHO ARE WITH
US IN PERSON WHO ARE GOING TO
BE TOGETHER WITH US HERE IN
WASHINGTON D.C. LATER ON TODAY.
SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR
FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR YOUR LOVE
AND FOR YOUR DEVOTION.
WELL, THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, RABBI AND FOR
JOINING WITH US.
AND IF YOU WANT TO STAND WITH
ISRAEL THE MARCH FOR ISRAEL IS
THIS AFTERNOON FROM 1 TO 3 IN
WASHINGTON, D.C. IT'S CALLED A
MARCH BUT AS I UNDERSTAND IT
FROM THE PARK SERVICE THEY'RE
GOING TO SAY NOW WE WANT TO
KEEP YOU IN ONE AREA.
SO IT'S MOSTLY GOING TO BE A
RALLY.
BUT TODAY 3 P.M. YOU CAN WATCH
IT IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT TO
WASHINGTON, D.C. DO REALIZE
THIS IS A NUMBERS GAME MORE
IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING THAT'S
GOING TO BE SAID FROM THE
PLATFORM AS PEOPLE SHOWING UP
AND SAYING WE STAND WITH ISRAEL
AND AND THIS IS A MOMENT THIS
IS OUR MOMENT IN OUR GENERATION
.
NO, WE STAND FOR WHAT IS RIGHT.
WE STAND WITH PEOPLE.
WE STAND WITH THE NATION OF
ISRAEL.
WE STAND WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE
WE STAND AND WE'RE NOT GOING BE
MOVED.
WE'RE GOING TO BE STRONG.
WE'RE GOING TO BE COURAGEOUS
BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT GOD IS
ASKING US TO DO.
YOU WANT TO WATCH YOU CAN GO TO
THE CBN YOUTUBE PAGE.
THE CBN NEWS OR ON OUR CBN
NEWS PLATFORM BE PART OF SAY
YES I STAND WITH ISRAEL.
LAWMAKERS ARE SCRAMBLING TO
AVOID ANOTHER POSSIBLE SHUTDOWN
WITH JUST DAYS BEFORE FUNDING
RUNS OUT SATURDAY.
NEW HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON
SCHEDULED A VOTE TODAY ON HIS
PLAN TO FUND ESSENTIAL AGENCIES
AND PROGRAMS UNTIL A LONG TERM
SOLUTION IS REACHED.
SOME REPUBLICANS HAVE ALREADY
VOICED OPPOSITION BECAUSE.
IT DOESN'T INCLUDE SPENDING
CUTS, FUNDING FOR BORDER
SECURITY OR AID TO ISRAEL.
FACED WITH POTENTIALLY LOSING
THE VOTE, THE SPEAKER
REPORTEDLY WILL USE A
PROCEDURAL MANEUVER WHICH THE
BACKING OF DEMOCRATS TO MOVE
FORWARD.
WELL, LESS THAN A YEAR UNTIL
THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
THE LATEST POLLING SHOWS
TROUBLING NEWS FOR PRESIDENT
BIDEN'S REELECTION CAMPAIGN.
IT HAS SOME BROACHING
WHETHER THE NEARLY 81 YEAR OLD
SHOULD STEP ASIDE.
CBE AND CHIEF POLITICAL
ANALYST DAVID BRODY HAS THAT
STORY.
RESPECTED NEW YORK TIMES SIENA
COLLEGE POLL SHOWS IF THE
ELECTION WERE WERE HELD TODAY
BIDEN WOULD LOSE A GENERAL
ELECTION MATCHUP.
FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IN THESE
FIVE KEY BATTLEGROUND STATES HE
TRAILS BY 11 IN NEVADA, SIX IN
GEORGIA,
IN PENNSYLVANIA AND IN
MICHIGAN.
BRADLEY HONAN HEADS A TOP
DEMOCRAT POLLING.
I THINK THESE ARE VERY, VERY
WORRYING NUMBERS.
THE DEMOCRATS TAKE VERY
SERIOUSLY.
ACROSS THE BOARD THE NUMBERS
ARE BAD.
VOTERS SAY THEY TRUST TRUMP
OVER BIDEN ON THE ECONOMY.
BY MORE THAN 22 POINTS 71% SAY
THE 80 YEAR OLD BIDEN IS TOO
OLD TO BE EFFECTIVE INCLUDING
4% OF DEMOCRATS.
ONLY 9% SAY THE SAME ABOUT THE
77 YEAR OLD TRUMP.
BIDEN'S SUPPORT IS ALSO DOWN
QUITE A BIT AMONG GEN Z
HISPANIC AND BLACK VOTERS.
ALL KEY PARTS OF HIS BASE.
TOP DEMOCRAT POLLSTER AND
STRATEGIST CORNELL BELCHER SAYS
OF THIS IS BEING OVERBLOWN.
LOOK I WORKED ON BOTH THE
OBAMA CAMPAIGNS AND TO END 11
IT WAS THE SAME POLLING THAT
HAD OBAMA YOU KNOW DOWN AND
MULTIPLE BATTLEGROUND STATES
LOSING TO MITT ROMNEY.
BELCHER POINTS TO OTHER
FACTORS.
NOBODY KNOWS QUITE WHAT THE
ELECTORATE WILL LOOK LIKE.
HE ADDS THE POSITIVE NUMBERS
TRUMP SEES COULD BE AS GOOD AS
IT GETS WHICH IS GOOD NEWS FOR
BIDEN.
HE'S A CEILING.
BIDEN IS AT HIS FLOOR AND I
THINK THAT IS A DIFFERENCE.
TALK NOW HAS TO WHETHER
BIDEN SHOULD STEP DOWN.
BUT WHAT ARE DEMOCRAT INSIDERS
?
THERE'S A LOT OF CHATTER
RIGHT NOW IN DEMOCRATIC CIRCLES
EXPRESSED, REAL CONCERN ABOUT
ABOUT THIS POLLING.
I EVEN HAVE IN MY EAR
WHISPERING ABOUT WHETHER IT'S
TIME TO DUMP BIDEN AND FIND
ANOTHER NOMINEE.
DAVID AXELROD, A KEY ARCHITECT
OF PRESIDENT WHITE HOUSE RUNS
SUGGESTED BIDEN MAY WANT TO
THINK STEPPING ASIDE WRITING
THE FOLLOWING ON SOCIAL MEDIA
QUOTE THIS WILL SEND TREMORS OF
DOUBT THROUGH THE PARTY.
ONLY BIDEN CAN MAKE THIS
DECISION.
WHAT HE NEEDS TO DECIDE IS
WHETHER THAT IS WISE, WHETHER
IT'S IN HIS BEST INTEREST OR.
YES THERE ALSO IS RISK
ASSOCIATED CHANGING COURSE NOW
BUT THERE IS A LOT OF
LEADERSHIP TALENT IN THE PARTY
POISED TO EMERGE.
LOOK, I LOVE DAVID.
HE'S A FRIEND BUT BUT I CAN'T
BELIEVE THE STATEMENT, DAVID,
BECAUSE HE KNOWS BETTER.
BELCHER SAYS AXELROD KNOWS
THAT CAMPAIGNS ARE ARE BUILT TO
SOLVE PROBLEMS AND THAT SHOULD
BE THE FOCUS.
YOU'VE COBBLE BACK TOGETHER
AND ENERGIZE THESE YOUNGER MORE
DIVERSE VOTERS TO ENGAGE IN THE
PROCESS OR YOU HAVE AN
ELECTORATE THAT BENEFITS
REPUBLICANS THAT COBBLING BACK
NEEDS TO HAPPEN SOON OR IT MAY
BE TOO LATE.
DAVID BRODY, CBN NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
THANK YOU, DAVID.
TURNING TO ISRAEL AND THE WAR
ON HAMAS IN GAZA A KEY FOCUS OF
THE FIGHTING IS NOW ON GAZA'S
BEEF REVEALED EVIDENCE THAT IT
BELIEVES INDICATES HOSTAGES
WERE HELD UNDERNEATH AL RANTISI
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL INCLUDING
WOMAN'S CLOTHES.
A CHAIR WITH ROPE NEXT TO THE
LEGS AND A BABY BOTTLE IN THE
BASEMENT.
THEY ALSO AN IMPROVISED TOILET,
DIAPERS AND A LIVING SPACE.
AN IDF SPOKESPERSON ALSO CLAIMS
THEY'VE DISCOVERED A LARGE
WEAPONS CACHE.
I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND
THIS KIND OF GEAR IS A FOR A
MAJOR FIGHT.
THESE ARE EXPLOSIVE.
THESE ARE VAST.
VAST WITH EXPLOSIVES.
IT'S A BABY VEST FOR TERRORISTS
TO EXPLODE FORCES AMONG
HOSPITALS AMONG PATIENTS.
THIS IS HAMAS FIRING HOMEPAGES
FOR FOR HOSPITALS.
THE WORLD HAS TO UNDERSTAND WHO
IS FIGHTING AGAINST.
ABC NEWS BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS HAVE
SEEN INTELLIGENCE CONFIRMING
CLAIMS THAT HAMAS IS STORING
WEAPONS AND HOUSING FIGHTERS IN
IN CIVILIAN FACILITIES IN
HOSPITALS.
WELL, WHILE MANY ISRAELIS
BELIEVE SEVENTH IS THE WORST
EVENT IN JEWISH HISTORY SINCE
THE HOLOCAUST, THEY ALSO FEEL
THE TRAGEDY IS BRINGING OUT THE
BEST IN THEIR PEOPLE.
CBSN MIDDLE EAST CORRESPONDENT
JULIE STAHL SHOWS US HOW
THEY'RE STEPPING UP TO HELP
THOSE IN NEED WHEN HAMAS
ATTACKS COMMUNITIES ALONG THE
GAZA BORDER OCTOBER SEVENTH,
PEOPLE ESCAPED WITH ALMOST NO
BELONGINGS.
IT TAKE LONG FOR ISRAELIS FROM
AROUND THE COUNTRY TO JUMP IN
AND.
THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL NOW IN
ITS BEST AND THAT IT TAKES A
LOT EFFORT TO PICK AND CARE FOR
US THE GOVERNMENT DICTATES TAKE
A LOT OF TOWNS WITH WITH THE
GOVERNMENT TO ACT.
BUT EARLIER THE PEOPLE SHOCKED
NEARLY A THOUSAND RESIDENTS OF
BERRI COMMUNITY ARE STAYING AT
THE DAVID HOTEL ON THE
DEAD SEA.
THIS INCLUDES CHILDREN WHO NEED
ACTIVITIES AND SCHOOL.
INBAL BAHAR NORMALLY OVERSEES
PRESCHOOL CHILDREN UP TO AGE
THREE IN THE ESHKOL REGION THAT
INCLUDES HER OWN KIBBUTZ ONE OF
THE HARDEST HIT COMMUNITIES.
WHEN WHEN WE CAME TO HERE TO
SEE IN THE BEGINNING I THOUGHT
THAT I HAVE ENOUGH ENERGY, YOU
KNOW, TO BUILD ALL THE
KINDERGARTEN AND ALL THIS BUT
VERY, VERY WEAK.
I UNDERSTOOD IT.
I'M NOT THERE.
I'M NOT AND I'M NOT GOOD FOR
THIS.
THEN ISRAELIS AND
ORGANIZATIONS LIKE DRAW AND
ISRAEL AID JOINED IN THE
EFFORT.
THEY BUILT US THE
KINDERGARTENS FROM BIRTH TO SIX
YEARS OLD AND AND IT TOOK ME
SOMETHING LIKE TWO AND A HALF.
TO RECOVER AND TO BE ABLE TO
WAKE UP IN THE MORNING TO DO DO
SOMETHING TO WANT TO WAKE IN
THE MORNING.
KINDERGARTEN TEACHER ELA
YA'ALON LEFT HER HOME IN
CENTRAL ISRAEL TO HELP.
WE FELT THAT WITH ALL THE
HORRIBLE THINGS HAPPENED TO US
HERE IN ISRAEL A, I THINK MOST
OF THE PEOPLE IN ISRAEL WANTED
TO DO SOMETHING.
AND WHEN WE SAW THIS INVITATION
WE UNDERSTOOD EDUCATION PEOPLE
THAT THIS IS THE PLACE WE NEED
TO BE RIGHT NOW.
ONE PRIORITY IS GETTING
CHILDREN BACK TO A REGULAR.
WE TRY TO BUILD THE SCHEDULE
THAT THEY KNOW THEY COME HERE
IN THE MORNING, THEY GO IN THE
NOON TIME IN THE MEANWHILE
EVERY WE DO A CIRCLE THAT WE
THINK MOVE A LITTLE BIT READ
STORIES.
THEY'VE ALSO STARTED A
GARDEN.
IT'S ACTIVITIES THAT BRING
THE HOPE AND THINKING
POSITIVELY ABOUT FUTURE THAT
SOMETHING WILL GROW.
SINCE 2001 ISRAEL AID HAS
RESPONDED TO MORE THAN 100
DISASTERS WORLDWIDE THIS IS THE
FIRST TIME THEY ARE WORKING IN
THEIR HOME COUNTRY.
WE ARE WORKING IN OVER A
DOZEN LOCATIONS ACROSS ISRAEL
WITH THIS PLACE COMMUNITIES
FROM THE GAZA BORDER REGION.
SHAHAR SAYS IT BECAME CLEAR
THE FIRST DAY THEY WOULD NEED
TO LAUNCH AN OPERATION AND.
WE RUN A CHILD AND PARENT SPACE
WHERE CAN ENGAGE AND PLAY UNDER
THE SUPERVISION OF MENTAL
HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND WE
ALSO HANDLE THE LOGISTICAL
SUPPORT FOR THE DONATION STORE.
MANY PEOPLE LEFT THEIR HOMES
WITH ABSOLUTELY NOTHING JUST
THE CLOTHES ON THEIR BACK.
MAY SAYS EVEN THOUGH THE BAY
AREA RESIDENTS HAVE SUFFERED
HUGE TRAUMA AND LOSS.
THEY ARE TOGETHER.
EVERYTHING WE DO IS IN FULL
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE KIBBUTZ
ITSELF BUT THE COMMUNITY ITSELF
WATCHING THEM COME TOGETHER AND
THE RESILIENCE THAT IS HERE IN
THAT COMMUNITY AND ALL OF THE
COMMUNITIES THAT WE WORK WITH
IS INCREDIBLE.
DR. ALAN PARKER, A BAY AREA
RESIDENT, SAYS THIS SENSE ALSO
GIVES THEM THE STRENGTH AND
WILL TO REBUILD EVEN IF IT
TAKES TWO OR THREE YEARS TO
COME UP WITH A SOLUTION YOU
COME AS A COMMUNITY YOU CAN
BUILD A COMMUNITY.
JULIE STAHL CBN NEWS THE
DEAD SEA ISRAEL GORDON JULIE'S
REPORTING REMINDS ME OF THE
JEWISH CONCEPT TIKKUN OLAM AND
THEY ARE REPAIRING THE WORLD.
BUT THE WORLD NEEDS A LOT OF
REPAIR RIGHT NOW.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS
REALLY TO ME IS THE ONGOING
CALLS FOR CEASE WHERE PEOPLE
WHETHER IT'S THE U.N. OR THE EU
JUST HAD A MEMO ALL MEMBERS OF
OUR OWN GOVERNMENT SAYING WE
NEED TO CALL FOR SOME KIND OF
CEASE.
I'M SEEING THE REPORTS ON
TELEVISION WHERE THE PLIGHT OF
THOSE IN THE HOSPITALS IN GAZA
AND I'M SEEING IT ALL AND I'M
GOING YES, MY HEART GOES OUT TO
THEM SHOULD NOT BE SUFFERING
LIKE THIS.
BUT HERE IS THE MORAL
EQUIVALENT IMAGINE IN YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD THAT THE ADJOINING
NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZED A GANG
TO COME AND KILL AND RAPE AND
TAKE YOUR CHILDREN HOSTAGE.
AND THEN YOU SAY WELL, I'VE
GOT TO ORGANIZE AN ATTACK BACK.
I'VE GOT TO GET MY CHILDREN
BACK.
AND AS YOU'RE FORMING THAT AS
YOU'RE DOING THAT AS YOU'RE
PROGRESS IN ORDER TO GET YOUR
OWN CHILDREN BACK, START SAYING
WELL, WHAT ABOUT ALL THE
INNOCENT PEOPLE IN OUR
NEIGHBORHOOD?
WHY AREN'T YOU CONCERNED ABOUT
THEM?
WELL YOU'VE TAKEN OUR CHILDREN.
YOU'VE TAKEN OUR PEOPLE YOU'RE
HOLDING THEM UNTIL THEY GIVE
THEM UP.
THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY TALK OF
A CEASE FIRE.
ISRAEL HAS EVERY RIGHT TO GET
ITS OWN CITIZENS BACK.
THAT'S THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF
STATES.
NATION STATES IS TO PROTECT
YOUR CITIZENS.
AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE
FREEDOM TO DO THAT WELL THEN
WHY DO YOU EVEN EXIST AS A
NATION?
HAS THE RIGHT TO EXIST?
ISRAEL HAS A RIGHT TO
SELF-DEFENSE.
AND ISRAEL HAS A RIGHT T
AT ITS HOSTAGE BACK AND BACK
NOW.
WELL, ANASTASIA, THE AIR
RAID SIRENS GOING OFF THE
MORNING OCTOBER 7TH.
SHE ALSO REMEMBERS WHAT CAME
AFTERWARDS THE SOUND OF SILENCE
THE WHOLE CITY AROUND HER
SEEMED DEAD.
WE HAVE BEEN IN THIS HOTEL FOR
THE SECOND WEEK NOW.
BEFORE THIS WE WERE IN
DIFFERENT HOTEL FOR ANOTHER TWO
WEEKS.
IT IS NOT EASY.
I HAVE A LITTLE CHILD.
SHE YEARS OLD.
LIKE MANY ISRAELIS LIVING
ALONG THE BORDER TO GAZA,
ANASTASIA AND HER FAMILY ARE
ACCUSTOMED TO ROCKET ALERTS.
BUT SHE QUICKLY REALIZED THE
ATTACK OF OCTOBER SEVEN WAS
DIFFERENT.
WHEN WE WOKE UP AT SIX 30
BECAUSE THEY STARTED THROWING
ROCKETS AT US WE SAID THEY WILL
BOMBARD FOR 2 TO 3 DAYS AS
ALWAYS AND STARTED WITH SIRENS
AND WE RAN INTO THE BOMB
SHELTER WITH OUR FAMILY SHOP AT
DAWN.
AFTER A FEW MINUTES WE GO OUT
AND SEE THAT THEY BOMBED THE
PARKING LOT 200 METERS FROM US.
ALL THE CARS THERE ARE JUST ON
FIRE AND THEN VIDEOS STARTED TO
APPEAR AND WE STARTED TO
REALIZE THAT SOMETHING WAS
ALREADY WRONG THAT THIS IS NOT
JUST A BOMBSHELL IT WAS A
BECAUSE STORIES STARTED COMING
IN ON FACEBOOK NEWS WHEN THE
INITIAL ATTACKS WERE OVER.
ANASTASIA'S COMMUNITY LEADERS
CHECKED ON PEOPLE.
IT WAS SILENCE.
THE WHOLE CITY DEAD.
WE HAD AN AMBULANCE ROAMING THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT WOULD STOP NEAR HOUSES
PROBABLY TELLING PEOPLE THAT
SOMEONE FROM THEIR FAMILY WAS
KIDNAPED OR KILLED.
CBN ISRAEL WAS WORKING WITH
ANASTASIA'S FAMILY BEFORE
SEVENTH ATTACKS.
SO WE REACHED OUT TO HER TO
MAKE SURE THEY WERE OKAY AND TO
PROVIDE ASSISTANCE COUNSELING,
MUCH NEEDED HOUSING.
THEY HELPED MY MOM A LOT.
CBN READY TO HELP AND WILL
ANSWER ANY QUESTION AND NO
MATTER WHAT TIME ANASTASIA AND
HER FAMILY ARE NOW SAFE IN A
HOTEL THANKS TO SUPPORT FROM

WILL GO NOW AND WILL BE ABLE TO
SPEND MONEY ON FOOD OR ON

HE ME TO PICK UP A PIECE OF
DUCT TAPE THAT WAS ON THE
FLOORBOARD OF HIS HIS CAR

HIP IN A BIKE ACCIDENT AND HE
COULDN'T BEND OVER.
MY PARENTS ALWAYS TAUGHT ME TO
BE KIND TO BE GENEROUS, TO BE
HELPFUL.
WHEN MITZI REACHED FOR THE
STRANGER FORCED HER INTO HIS
CAR.
I TRIED OPEN THE DOOR AND IT
WAS LIKE IT WAS JAMMED AND HE
TOLD IF I TRIED TO GET AWAY
THAT HE WAS GOING TO SHOOT ME
AND I BELIEVED HIM.
MRS. KIDNAPER CHAINED TO THE
CAR AND DROVE AWAY NEXT TWO
DAYS.
HE KEPT HER THERE, FORCED HER
TO DRINK ALCOHOL AND SEXUALLY
ABUSED HER.
I CRASHED MY LITTLE HEART
BECAUSE I REALIZED THAT NOBODY
WAS TO SAVE ME.
I REMEMBER FEELING SO DIRTY AND
JUST TIRED.
ON DAY THREE MITZI RECALLED
A CONVERSATION SHE'D HAD WITH
HER UNCLE WEEKS BEFORE.
SAID IF YOU DON'T ASK FOR
YOU'RE GOING TO GO TO.
I KNEW THAT I WAS GOING TO
DIE.
THAT CAUSED ME TO PRAY.
I SAID FORGIVE ME FOR BEGGING
MY BIG SISTER AND LET MY FAMILY
KNOW THAT I LOVE THEM.
SOON AFTER HER KIDNAPER LEFT
HER ALONE IN THE CAR WITH HIS
KEYS.
MITZI ESCAPED AND FLAGGED DOWN
A TRUCK DRIVER WHO CALLED THE
POLICE.
THEY RETURNED MITZI TO HER
FAMILY AND ARRESTED HER
KIDNAPER WHO CONFESSED TO
KILLING TEN OTHER GIRLS.
HE WAS CONVICTED AND LATER DIED
IN PRISON.
EVEN THOUGH MITZI WAS SAFE, HER
INNOCENCE WAS GONE FOREVER.
I JUST WANTED TO HIDE.
I DIDN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE I FELT
LIKE NOBODY KNEW OR UNDERSTOOD
.
I FELT LIKE I WAS THE ONLY ONE
IN THE WORLD.
I COULD NO LONGER LOOK AT
MYSELF AS A KID BECAUSE I WAS
INTRODUCED TO THESE ADULT
THINGS AND IT REALLY BROKE MY
SPIRIT.
I WAS ALWAYS SAD, DEPRESSED,
WORRIED BY MIDDLE SCHOOL MRS.
DEPRESSION TURNED INWARD.
SHE BEGAN AND USING DRUGS
REGULARLY TO NUMB THE PAIN.
14 SHE WAS A FULL BLOWN
ALCOHOLIC.
I NEVER WANTED TO LET ANYBODY
GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO ME TO HURT
ME AGAIN.
FOR MANY YEARS MY LIFE REVOLVED
AROUND ALCOHOL, COCAINE
ECSTASY, GANG FIGHTS BEING A
AND JUST HATING THE WORLD
BECAUSE I BELIEVED THAT THERE
WAS NO GOOD IN THIS WORLD.
I HAD SO MUCH RAGE AND ANGER
INSIDE OF ME I DIDN'T EVEN NEED
A REASON TO FIGHT.
I JUST FOUGHT.
THEN AT 16 MITZI HEARD ABOUT
MISSING EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRL.
SHE FELT COMPELLED TO SO SHE
SOBERED UP LONG ENOUGH TO GET
INVOLVED
AND EVEN SHARING HER OWN STORY
TO RAISE AWARENESS.
WHEN THE GIRL'S BODY WAS FOUND
A FEW DAYS, THE TRAGEDY ONLY
ADDED TO MRS. PAIN.
I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY I GOT
TO COME HOME AND WHY SHE DID IT
AND THAT'S WHEN STARTED TO FEEL
GUILTY.
MITZI WENT BACK TO HER
DESTRUCTIVE LIFESTYLE.
EVEN THE BIRTH OF HER DAUGHTER
FOLLOWING YEAR DIDN'T CHANGE
HER HEART.
THE HATE THAT I WAS HOLDING
ON TO WAS CAUSING ME TO STAY
DRUNK BECAUSE HAD THIS UGLINESS
IN MY HEART THAT I WASN'T
WILLING TO LET GO.
THEN HER BEST FRIEND'S MOM HER
TO CHURCH AND I DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN WHEN I WAS
DRAWN TO GO.
I FELT LED TO GO UP TO THE
ALTAR BECAUSE I WANTED TO GIVE
MY LIFE TO GOD AND I FELT THE
PRESENCE OF GOD OVERWHELMED ME.
AND IN THAT MOMENT I KNEW THAT
GOD'S POWER WAS REAL.
MITZI DEDICATED HER LIFE TO
CHRIST.
HOWEVER SOMETHING WAS STILL
MISSING.
I WAS SO ANGRY AND JUST OF
STRESS AND TORMENT.
I WAS DOING THINGS THAT I
DIDN'T WANT.
I JUST COULDN'T STOP DOING
THEM.
MITZI SPENT TIME READING HER
BIBLE AND WAS DISABLED BY HER
PASTORS WHO STRESSED THE
IMPORTANCE OF FORGIVENESS AND
WHEN THEY ME THAT MY HANDLING
DEPENDED ON HOW WELL I FORGIVE
AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS.
IT CHANGED MY MY LIFE BECAUSE I
WAS HOLDING ON TO SO MUCH
BITTERNESS AND UNFORGIVENESS
FOR THE PEOPLE THAT HURT MY
WHOLE LIFE.
I WAS TOLD BY MULTIPLE THAT I
DID NOT HAVE TO FORGIVE THE MAN
THAT KIDNAPED AND RAPED ME.
SOON AFTER MITZI MET WITH
HER PASTORS A ZOOM CALL FOR A
TIME OF DELIVERANCE IN PRAYER.
THEY THINGS OUT OF ME BY
NAME AND WHEN CALLED OUT THE
ANGER, THE ABUSE, THE TRAUMA I
FELT A DEMON COME OUT OF MY
BODY.
I THE FIRE OF GOD AND IT WAS
LIKE A REFRESHING FIRE STARTED
AT MY FEET AND CAME UP MY BODY.
I REPENT AND ASKED GOD TO
FORGIVE ME FOR ALL OF THE
WICKED THINGS THAT I DID OUT OF
ANGER AND BITTERNESS.
I FORGAVE THE MAN THAT KIDNAPED
ME AND WHEN I SAID HIS NAME OUT
LOUD AND I SAID I FORGIVE
CURTIS DEAN ANDERSON.
BITTERNESS AND UNFORGIVENESS ME
.
I WAS LITERALLY STANDING TALLER
AND I HAD INSTANT JOY AND PEACE
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN JUST DIDN'T
WANT TO DRINK ANYMORE.
MY LIFE.
I'VE NEVER BEEN THE SAME
MITZI SAYS.
NOW SHE IS FREE TO CONFIDENTLY
FULFILL GOD'S PURPOSE IN HER.
SHE STARTED A NONPROFIT THE
MITZI SANCHEZ TO HELP MISSING
AND EXPLOITED CHILDREN.
MY IDENTITY BEFORE WAS THE
KIDNAPED GIRL.
.
MY IDENTITY NOW IS CHRIST.
IT WAS ONLY THROUGH JESUS
CHRIST THAT I WAS TO GET ALL OF
THAT UGLINESS REMOVED OUT OF MY
BODY AND MY MIND AND MY HEART.
I GAVE GOD ALL OF MY ANGER AND
AND HE GAVE ME PEACE.
GAVE ME FREEDOM.
WHEN JESUS SAID HE CAME TO
SET CAPTIVES FREE, THAT'S WHAT
HE MEANT.
YOU KNOW, WE NOT HAVE GONE
THROUGH AN EXPERIENCE LIKE
MITZI WHICH IS TOO HORRIBLE TO
CONTEMPLATE.
BUT ALL OF US ALL OF US GO
THROUGH THINGS THAT TEND TO
HANG ON TO US AND DEFINE WHO WE
ARE WHEN IT'S NOT WHO GOD
CREATED US TO BE.
SO TODAY I'M IF THAT'S
HAPPENED TO SOME OF YOU IF
THERE ARE THINGS TO YOU AS
CHILDREN, THINGS THAT HAPPENED
TO YOU IN, YOUR FAMILY, THINGS
THAT HAPPENED TO YOU IN BROKEN
RELATIONSHIPS THINGS THAT
HAPPENED TO YOU AMONGST PEERS
WHETHER IT'S OR AT WORK AND YOU
LET THOSE THINGS COME INTO
HEART AND YOUR MIND AND DEFINE
YOU.
YOU KNOW THEY COME IN WITHOUT
OUR EVEN REALLY UNDERSTANDING
THAT THEY'VE MADE ANDRE.
BUT HERE'S THE THING WE GET TO
CHOOSE TO SAY NO PUSH THEM OUT
AND CLOSE THE DOOR.
IT'S NOT TO DO THAT.
YOU KNOW, IT TOOK MITZI MANY,
MANY YEARS AND SOMETIMES WHEN
WE'RE HURT THEN WE EMBARK ON
JUST A LIFESTYLE THAT CONTINUES
TO POORLY AND WRONGLY IDENTIFY
US A LIFESTYLE THAT EVEN BEGINS
TO DESTROY US FROM INSIDE OUT.
AND WE DON'T KNOW WHY WE CAN'T
CONTROL WANT TO LIVE LIKE THAT.
BUT WE KEEP MAKING THE SAME
CHOICES.
VERY OFTEN IT'S BECAUSE WE'VE
ALLOWED WRONG THINKING TO COME
INTO OUR HEARTS AND OUR WRONG
THINKING ABOUT GOD.
WRONG THINKING ABOUT OURSELVES
WHO WE ARE TO FORGIVE SOMEONE
WHO WHEN YOU WERE EIGHT YEARS
OLD REPEATEDLY ABUSED YOU AND
WOULD HAVE MADE YOU VICTIM
NUMBER 11 IF THE OPPORTUNITY TO
LEAVE PRESENTED ITSELF WOULD BE
A VERY HARD THING TO FORGIVE.
MITZI DID IT.
WHEN THE POINT OF TIME CAME
WHERE SHE REALIZED SHE WANTED
AND NEEDED TO BE SET FREE ALL
OF THAT SHE MADE THE CHOICE TO
FORGIVE.
YOU KNOW FORGIVING DOESN'T MEAN
THAT THE THING THAT WAS DONE TO
YOU NOT WICKED.
IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE THING
THAT WAS DONE TO ISN'T AWFUL
ISN'T SOMETHING THAT IS
INDESCRIBABLY UNFAIR.
IT MEANS I'M NOT GOING TO BE
DEFINED BY THIS, NOT GOING TO
LET THIS EXPERIENCE OR THIS
PERSON OR THESE CONTROL ME LIKE
THIS ANYMORE SO TO LET THEM GO.
THAT'S WHAT FORGIVENESS IS.
IT'S SAYING.
I DON'T HOLD A GRUDGE.
I DON'T HOLD I DON'T HOLD JUST
THAT THAT BITTERNESS INSIDE OF
YOU THAT DEFINES WHO YOU ARE.
IT TO JESUS PUT IT ON THE ALTAR
BEFORE HIM.
HE SAYS HE WILL TAKE CARE OF
ALL OF THAT IN HIS TIME AND WAY
.
LET IT GO INSTEAD.
COME JESUS.
ASK HIM TO THE VERY DEEPEST
PART OF YOUR HEART.
RECEIVE NOT JUST THE
FORGIVENESS HE GAVE YOU WHEN HE
WENT TO THE CROSS 2000 YEARS
AGO BUT THE FORGIVENESS HE
OFFERS YOU RIGHT NOW FOR ALL
THE CHOICES YOU'VE MADE THAT
HAVE INAPPROPRIATE AND THAT
HAVE BEEN DAMAGING TO YOU.
IT'S JUST A CONVERSATION.
JESUS, I LOVE YOU.
I NEED TO FORGIVE MY SINS AND
HELP ME TO FORGIVE WHO HAVE
SINNED AGAINST ME.
JESUS WILL DO THAT FOR YOU.
LISTEN, WE'VE GOT A RESOURCE
FOR YOU CALLED FORGIVENESS
POWER IN YOUR LIFE.
THERE'S POWER IN FORGIVENESS.
THIS IS FREE AND YOU CAN GET IT
BY GOING TO BBC.COM OR CALLING
ONE 800 707,000.
JUST SAY PLEASE HAVE THAT SHEET
UNFORGIVENESS WILL SEND IT UP
TO YOU RIGHT AWAY.

WELL WE'VE GOT SOME TIME FOR
YOUR EMAIL QUESTION SO THE
FIRST.
THE FIRST ONE COMES FROM
STUART WHO SAYS WHERE IN THE
BIBLE NAME JEHOVAH FIRST USED
AS THE REVELATION TO MOSES AND
EXODUS.
AND SO I'LL JUST READ IT TO YOU
I APPEARED ON THE ABRAHAM AND
ISAAC UNDER JACOB BY THE NAME
GOD ALMIGHTY AL-QAIDA BUT BY MY
NAME JEHOVAH WHICH IS A THE
KING JAMES VERSION OF YAHWEH BY
MY NAME JEHOVAH I WAS NOT KNOWN
TO THEM THAT FIRST TIME IS
EXODUS CHAPTER SIX FIRST THREE
THIS IS JONATHAN GORDON WHO
SAYS SHOULD CHRISTIANS VIEW
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AS A
BAD THING OR THING.
WELL LET ME MAKE AN ANALOGY
OR AS NUCLEAR ENERGY A GOOD
THING AND YOU KNOW YOU CAN YOU
CAN THAT BECAUSE YOU KNOW, ARE
YOU LEAVING PLACES ON THE
PLANET ARE GOING TO BE
IRRADIATED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF
TIME BUT TERMS OF CHEAP ENERGY
IT'S THERE ARE NUCLEAR WEAPONS
.
I THINK THE ANSWER QUITE
CLEARLY IS NO, THEY'RE NOT.
WHY CREATE A WEAPON THAT YOU
HOPE YOU WILL NEVER USE IF IT
GETS WEAPONIZED AGAINST PEOPLE
THAT WILL BE A BAD THING.
IF I COMES ALONG AND HELPS
PEOPLE DO THINGS AND DO BETTER
IN THEIR LIVES THEN YES, IT'S A
VERY GOOD THING.
SO IT'S IT'S INTERESTING THAT
JUST LIKE NUCLEAR THERE'S
OBVIOUSLY TWO SIDES TO IT.
WELL, HERE'S A LONG
QUESTION.
I'M GOING TO READ IT FAST SO WE
HAVE TIME THIS IS THIS THIS IS
HOW DO YOU KEEP HOPE OR FAITH
THAT GOD'S GOING TO HELP YOU?
I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT
THOUSAND TWO AND OVER THE LAST
FIVE YEARS ALONE I'VE HAD SEVEN
MAJOR SURGERIES.
THEY HAVE ALL FAILED.
I'M FEELING LOST AND FORGOTTEN
BY GOD.
DO YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE OR
SCRIPTURE FOR FINDING IN THE
PAIN OR WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU
FEEL LIKE YOU JUST CAN'T WAIT
ON GOD'S TIMING FOR HEALING.
WELL, I COULD TALK ON THIS
FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS OR MORE AND
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FIND ANY
ANSWER TO IT.
THE APOSTLE PETER CALL IT
DON'T COUNT.
IT'S STRANGE WHEN THIS FIERY
TRIAL COMES ALONG I'LL GO WITH
WHAT I WENT THROUGH WITH MY
MOTHER FIVE YEARS OF PAIN AND
SUFFERING AFTER HER STROKE I
LEARNED SO MUCH FROM HER
WILLPOWER HER ABILITY TO BE
GRACIOUS AND ENJOY LIFE IN THE
OF HER PAIN.
THAT FELLOWSHIP OF SUFFERING
IS SOMETHING I WILL TREASURE
ALL MY DAYS.
HERE'S A WORD FROM MAX.
WE MUST ALWAYS CHERISH THE
