all right well looks like we're heading into World War III doesn't look good and there was a great interview with Tucker Carlson interviewing Senator Ted Cruz and the topic came up of what it means to bless Israel and Ted Cruz put forward the theology of dispensationalism which comes from England and has infected evangelical Christianity in the United States and is now spreading to the whole world so today we're going to look at the clip with Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz ted Cruz will say it is our duty as Americans to bless Israel because according to Ted Cruz it says in the Bible he doesn't know where if you bless Israel you will be blessed ted Cruz says "I grew up in Sunday school we were taught if you bless Israel you will be blessed." And so Ted Cruz says "I want to be blessed so I'm going to bless Israel." And Tucker Carlson pushes back on that rightly and today we're going to look at three Bible verses that disprove the idea that mo the modern secular state of Israel is the recipient of the blessing that God gave to Abraham in Genesis 12 so we're going to run that interview clip we're going to look at three Bible verses and I'm going to do Q&A question and answer i am in Rome obviously you see I'm in a different place uh we have been in Rome for the past week and it's been just absolutely lovely we went to uh St peter's today went through the holy door got the indulgence and yesterday we saw Pope Leo and a friend of mine Will and Megan they're with us here making pilgrimage as well they had their baby blessed by Pope Leo and uh they've put the video up on I think they put it on TikTok already has 4 million views i want to show you this uh video of our friend William and Megan their baby hold i'm going to do something different here i'm going to go to a different screen of their baby there they are pope mobile rolls up and Pope Leo takes looks right into her eyes blesses her and they bring the baby back she's so chill so lovely my baby has been blessed by Pope Leo it's been a wonderful pilgrimage we've been to all four major basilas and we've been to 50 churches relics prayers rosaries masses it's been absolutely amazing and I will be leading a pilgrimage here to Rome this is kind of a reconnaissance trip so if you're interested in making a pilgrim pilgrimage to Rome I'll be talking about that in the months to come i want to run the video here with Tucker and Ted Cruz i'll put the sound on and make interruptions along the way to break it down here we go 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 the those who bless the government of Israel those who bless Israel is what it says doesn't say the government of it says the nation of Israel okay so we're going to pause here what we're going to see and Ted Cruz by the way I've I've met Ted Cruz um had dinner with him once and I asked him about his religion about his faith and he made it very clear that he is a Baptist um that's his religious tradition and because he's Baptist this that explains partly why he is a dispensationalist a dispensationalist is one who believes now this is kind of weird i was just explaining this to a friend this morning dispensationalists believe that God had plan A and plan A was to choose the descendants of Abraham Isaac and Jacob the 12 tribes of Israel sustain them have the Messiah Jesus Christ born in Israel and then they would all accept Jesus as the Messiah and by that it would trigger all the nations coming to Jerusalem and all of them being reconciled to God and then the end of the world would happen unfortunately according to the dispensationalist this is not Catholic theology this is not Eastern Orthodox theology it's not even historic Protestant theology according to the dispensation something went wrong what went wrong well most of the Jewish people did not accept Jesus as the Messiah in AD.33 they crucified him they rose again and even after that most of the Jewish people many did the Blessed Virgin Mary Peter Paul Andrew Simon so on because they did not accept the Messiah God hit pause and he started what the dispensationalists call the parenthesis the grammatical parenthesis parenthesis and God went to plan B and plan B was to extend the gospel and salvation to all the Gentiles and once all the full number of the Gentiles the non-Jews found Jesus God would then push the play button in the parentheses of the non-Jews by rapturing you ever heard of rapture it's not a Catholic idea it's not a Eastern Orthodox it's not even historical Protestant he will rapture he'll lift up all the believing Gentiles into heaven he'll push the play button and then everything will start again for the Jewish people and they'll accept Jesus there'll be a tribulation antichrist and then the end of the world will come so the key thing to understand about dispensationalism is there's a plan A Jewish and there's a plan B non-Jewish and we're living in that parenthesis that B plan and the dispensationalists like Ted Cruz as we just saw they believe that we Gentiles have to bless the nation of Israel because it's an endtime sign and we will soon be raptured out and then God will start dealing with the Jews and bring them to Jesus that is not what we believe as Catholics i wrote a best-selling commentary in the book of Revelation it's called Antichrist and Apocalypse you can get it at amazon.com or get the audible version i lay out the historic what's called covenant theology covenant theology is what Catholics believe Orthodox believe it's traditionally what Lutherans Calvinists Anglicans it's what all Christians believe and that is God gave a series of seven covenants in the last and final covenant is the new covenant in the blood of Jesus jesus instituted the new covenant at the last supper which was the first eukarist he took bread broke it said "This is my body." Transubstantiation he took the chalice of blood this is the blood of the new and everlasting covenant the new and everlasting covenant jesus didn't say "This is the cup of plan B this is the cup of the backup plan the new covenant is a parenthesis jesus did not teach dispensationalism he didn't teach there's a Jewish dispensation and a gentile dispensation and then finish up the Jewish dispensation instead what you see beginning in Genesis is God chooses a couple Adam and Eve and then he chooses a group of people under Moses or first he chooses Abraham and his people and then Moses a nation and then King David a kingdom and then there's all the prophets and then Jesus John the Baptist and then Jesus comes preaching the kingdom of heaven is at hand it is the fulfillment it is the end it is the climax it is the culmination it is the new and everlasting covenant the last covenant that's it it fulfills all the previous covenants it doesn't destroy the previous covenants it fulfills all the previous covenants so it fulfills the covenant with Adam jesus is the new Adam it fulfills the covenant of Abraham that I will bless all nations through you as we'll see that means Jesus not the state of Israel it fulfills the covenant with King David with the messianic king and everything is fulfilled with Jesus Christ and his body that's the church and there's only one church jesus doesn't have two wives Israel and the church god is not a polygamist god has one spouse one bride of Christ and it is the one holy Catholic and apostolic church all right so with that said let's continue to see what Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson say so that's in the Bible as a Christian I believe that where is that i I can find it to you i don't have the the scripture off the tip of my So if you're gonna vote for wars and you're going to give millions and billions of dollars to Israel and it's all based on what you learned in Sunday school where Ted Cruz says "If you bless Israel you'll be blessed." You think you might want to know the verse if you're banking the lives of American soldiers and you're banking the taxpayer money in the budget to back Israel based on what you learned in Sunday school I would hope you would know that Bible verse you might if you're a senator you'd want to tattoo that Bible verse on your hand maybe kind of key all right let's go back here to Tucker and I I don't have the the scripture off the tip of my You pull out the phone and use it's in Genesis all right so you're I love how Tucker already knew where it was it's in Genesis and we're going to look at that verse in just a moment you're quoting a a Bible phrase you don't have context for it and 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 okay where does where does my support for Israel come from number one because biblically we are commanded to support Israel but number two hold on 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 support the government of Israel we are commanded to support Israel and we're told those who bless Israel will be blessed but what hold on define Israel this is important okay so here we're going to pause all right he says the Bible says if you bless Israel you'll be blessed so it's from Genesis the verse he's referring to i'm going to pull it up on the screen i prepped it ahead of time there it is over my left shoulder and he's quoting Genesis 12 this is the Abrahamic covenant this is God's covenant with Abraham and I'll read you the verse genesis 12 2 and 3 and I will make of thee a great nation he's talking to Abraham i will make of thee a great nation and I will bless thee and magnify thy name and thou shalt be blessed i will bless them that bless thee and curse them that curse thee and in thee shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed end quote genesis 12 notice it does not say bless Israel the word Israel is not in the verse that Ted Cruz and the dispensationalists are trying to use to get us into a war based on faulty theology it does not say if you bless Israel you'll be blessed it says I will bless them that bless thee that's singular he's talking to Abraham who received the Abrahamic covenant and Jesus says in John I think it's chapter 8 you don't you don't receive me before Abraham was I am he says Abraham saw my day and rejoiced so Abraham is a protochristian abraham looked into the future and saw the son of God become man the incarnation Jesus Christ and what God says in Genesis 12 is he says "I will make you a great nation." But he says "I will bless them that bless thee you Abraham and I will curse them that curse you and in you shall all the nations of the earth be blessed." Why will all the nations be blessed in Abraham because Abraham is the great great great great great great great great great great great grandfather of Jesus Christ the blessing of the world the entire world universal blessing comes to us through Jesus Christ who comes to us from Abraham that my friends is Christianity somehow these senators and these Baptist pastors and dispensational Bible church pastors charismatic pastors they have twisted the sacred scriptures to say if you bless Israel you're blessed and by Israel they mean the secular nation state created after World War II that's not what this says senator Senator Ted Cruz it doesn't say if you bless the secular government of Israel established after World War II you will be blessed this is the twisting of sacred scripture all right we're going to go back and see what Tucker and Are you kidding this this majority we are commanded to support Israel and we're told those who bless Israel will be blessed but what hold on define Israel did we just determine just now in the last 3 minutes that that's not what the Bible verse says it does not say if you bless Israel will be blessed this is important are you kidding i this this is a majority Christian country define Israel could 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 yes and and he's so does that the current borders the obviously God is not talking about the nation of Israel that's run by Netanyahu right now i I don't understand how anyone could actually think that when God was talking to Abraham 2,000 years before Christ he was saying if you bless the government of Israel in 2025 you will be blessed how are people getting this it's it's insanity here's Tucker leadership he's talking about the political entity called Israel he he's talking about the nation of Israel yet nations exist and he's discussing a nation a nation was the people of Israel the nation referring to in Genesis is that the same as the country run by Benjamin Netanyahu right now yes yes it is okay unbelievable yes yes it is he believes God's talking about the government run by Netanyahu by Benjamin Netanyahu right now yes it is and by the way it's not run by Benjamin Netanyahu as a dictator it's it's a democratic country that elected he's the prime minister what but just just like you know America is the country run by Donald Trump no actually the American people elected Donald Trump the same principle this is silly i'm talking about the political entity of modern Israel yes and that is you believe that's what God was talking about in Genesis i do but but that country has existed since when uh for thousands of years now there was a time when it didn't exist and then it was recreated yeah it didn't exist after Jesus Christ came and he said that you didn't receive me i wish I could have gathered you together you didn't receive me and so he says about Jerusalem woe to you matthew 24 and he says not one stone will be left upon another jesus says the city will be destroyed they rejected the Messiah the Romans came he said within one generation in the Bible a generation is 40 years Jesus was crucified and rose again in AD.33 in the year 70 37 years later within a generation the Romans came and destroyed Jerusalem as a matter of fact I was just down the street at the Roman forum i saw the arch of Titus and within the arch of Titus you can see the Romans destroying Jerusalem and it has the famous image of the Romans carrying the manora that they took from the temple the destroyed temple it's right here in Jerusalem it celebrates the destruction of Jerusalem and it wasn't a nation until after World War II and we had these dispensationalist heretical theologians who said "Oh look there's a country called Israel in Palestine that proves our theology that God has a plan A and a plan B he's about to end plan A dispensation sorry he's about to end plan B dispensation B and he's now going to move back into dispensation A." And somehow we have senators who are quoting this from their memory in Sunday school in order to justify war with Iraq with Iran and who know and Gaza and who knows what else because Senator Cruz remembers this from Sunday school and he doesn't even get the quote right here's the quote i'll read it again god says to Abraham "And I will make of thee a great nation and I will bless thee and magnify thy name and thou shalt be blessed i will bless them that bless thee and curse them that curse thee and in thee shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed." Does not say "If you bless the postworld war ii secular state of Israel you will be blessed." Like what you're going to get money you're going to get rich you're going to get healthy if you write a check to the state of Israel in 2025 are you kidding me if we send them a billion dollars worth of weapons we're going to get rich or what's going to happen there was an amazing tweet that my wife showed me this morning i saved it i don't have I don't think I have the screenshot but I'll read it to you and uh this person made the observation that if this is really true we're going the wrong way this is a tweet from Joel Webb he said "Since America started blessing Israel we've murdered 70 million babies we've transed a bunch of minors we've imported millions of foreigners we've acrewed over 30 million in debt since we've been blessing Israel we've been cursed so maybe the Israel we keep blessing isn't actually Israel." End quote why is it that America is becoming more and more secular more and more lost spiritually astray and we've been blessing Israel for decades it's a problem i'm going to come back to uh people are asking is Tucker Catholic i have some ideas on that i'll come back to Q&A uh real quick before I finish the video with Tucker and Senator Ted Cruz I want to honor today's sponsor and that is Birch Gold uh I've been investing in gold for a long time maybe 15 years now and I've been happy in the last 12 months gold is increasing its value by 30% and the central banks are buying gold in record quantities so the demand doesn't seem to be going down there's also the Rio reset you've heard me talk about that in previous episodes uh the BRICS nations are looking to unseat the US dollar as the global reserve currency and so you can find peace of mind and make sure your savings aren't eroded by inflation by investing in gold and Birch Gold makes that extremely easy to convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax sheltered IRA in physical gold or you can even buy some and store it in your home so um I think it's a great idea my wife and I believe in it uh we teach our children that gold is the biblical money it's the original money gold and silver so if you'd like to learn more no obligation you can text my name Taylor to 989898 and Birch Gold will send you a free obligationfree info kit on gold no obligation just useful information birchold has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and tens of thousands of happy customers who take control of protecting your savings again text my name Taylor T a Y L O R to 989898 or you can click the link in the show notes or the pinned comment all right back to created just over 70 but I'm I'm saying I think most people understand that line in Genesis to refer to the Jewish people God's chosen people that's not what it says okay israel but you don't even know where in the Bible it is okay so real quick friends you tell me is Sen Senator Ted Cruz right in Genesis and I will bless of thee a great nation and I will bless thee and magnify thy name thou shalt be blessed i will bless them that bless thee and curse them that curse thee talking to Abraham the person you're basing an entire foreign policy on a verse that you cannot remember from Sunday school this is so very dangerous i'm going to share another verse real quick because people say "Well what is Israel?" Obviously when I look at a map there's a place that used to be called Palestine and on the map on my Google map it says Israel so clearly that is the same thing as Old Testament Israel right not exactly let's look at what First Peter says uh Peter was our first pope i just visited his tomb this morning here in Rome and Peter says this he says this is in fir the first epistle of St peter if so be you have tea tasted that the Lord is sweet unto whom coming as to living a living stone rejected indeed by men but chosen and made honorable by God he's talking about Jesus Christ being the chief cornerstone who's rejected and then we Christians in this world are persecuted we are also rejected many Christians become martyrs but they are also chosen honored by God with Jesus Christ verse five right here he says "Be you also as living stones built up a spiritual house a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ." And I'm missing part of the verse let me grab it real quick hate it when I have when I do that he says "You're a holy nation." Let me get that verse that was verse 9 he says "But you are a chosen generation a kingly priesthood a holy nation a purchased people that you may declare his virtues who have called you out of darkness into his marvelous light." Peter the first pope 1 Peter 2:9 I cut it off on my on the screen says that we Christians are the holy nation so when God told Abraham I will make you into a holy nation he wasn't just talking about DNA because remember all of the Arabs descend from Abraham the also descend from Abraham he's not talking about DNA he's not talking about a genealogy he's talking about those who have faith and are justified by believing in God and his covenant that's why we see in the Gospel of John Jesus says "Abraham saw my day and rejoiced." Abraham believed in God he believed in the covenants and he believed in the coming of the Messiah and those that are aligned with Abraham in that belief in the Abrahamic covenant receive Jesus Christ and that makes us the believers of Jesus Christ the members of the one holy Catholic and apostolic church that makes us according to St peter the first pope 1 Peter 2:9 it makes us the holy nation who is Israel israel is the church let me repeat that israel is the Catholic Church who are the chosen people first Peter 2:9 i'll put it on the screen for you one moment please let me just drop this into here who are the chosen people of God first Peter he tells us right here on the screen you are a chosen generation a nightly pre a kingly priesthood a holy nation you who's he talking to christians he's not talking to Netanyahu by the way if you're enjoying this please like it and share it right now hit the share button like it he's not talking about net to Netanyahu he's not talking to MSAD he's not talking to Jeffrey Epstein he's not talking to the United States of America he's talking to Christians those who believe in Jesus Christ those who are members of the one holy Catholic and apostolic church we are the chosen generation we are a kingly priesthood we are the holy nation if you bless the holy nation the church you are blessed that's what Rome here I am in Rome that's what it's all about 30,000 50,000 70,000 people coming here the heart of the church Rome a pagan city peter and Paul came here by the commandment of Jesus Christ jesus was crucified by the Roman Pontius Pilate he was crucified on a Roman cross by Roman centurions and he sent his two best evangelists best missionaries Peter and Paul to the heart of Rome where they died a martyr's death peter was crucified upside down at the Vatican Hill that's where St peter is st paul was decapitated outside the walls we went there as well st paul outside the walls we knelt in front of the body of St paul where he is buried those who bless the church are blessed those who honor and worship Jesus Christ are blessed not those who honor the government of Netanyahu dispensationalists have been taught false theology it's Zionism repackaged for Christians they're taking the Talmud they're repackaging the rabbitical false Jewish Talmud and they're repackaging it in a Christian way and saying "Look Christians if you give us money you give us tanks you give us weapons you're going to be blessed." Cuz look Ted Senator Ted Cruz said on Tucker that if you bless the Netanyahu's Israel you'll be blessed and they'd say "Oh I want to be blessed i want to I got to give money to Israel we need to vote for politicians who will make war for Israel because it's I learned it in Sunday school." That is false here's a great live chat real quick the new Israel is the Catholic Church israel is the church the church is Israel this is the historic teaching of the church this is the teaching of Christianity it is the teaching of St peter as I just showed you in 1 Peter 2:9 we are the chosen people we are a holy nation we are the holy nation of God not the political entity created after World War II by people who reject Jesus as king they say Jesus is not king we say Christ is king christ is king hallelujah those who assemble around Jesus Christ those are the holy nation the holy people the chosen people jesus came preaching the kingdom of God he told people enter the kingdom by which he meant enter into me the early church called that baselos it's Greek the kingdom the king and the kingdom all within the person of Jesus Christ if you enter into Jesus Christ you have entered into the kingdom you are part Jesus Christ is the chosen one of God if you enter into Jesus Christ you're part of the chosen people it's about being affiliated with the truth and Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life you must be united to Jesus Christ you might be watching me you might be new to my show my name is Taylor Marshall the way you become united to Jesus Christ you get down you don't have to get down but get down on your knees pray and say "I believe in Jesus Christ i believe that he was raised from the dead." And after three days he was crucified and he rose again and he established a community of people he chose Peter to be the prince of the apostles the chief apostle and then the other apostles and he told them in Matthew 28 "Go out into all the world teaching them everything that I have commanded you baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and I am with you until the end of the age." And then he ascended to the right hand of the Father and there on earth stood Peter the Blessed Virgin Mary the other apostles they prayed for nine days on the day of Pentecost they went to Jerusalem and they began to preach the Holy Spirit came down like fire upon them they began to preach and they began to baptize and they began to grow the chosen people the holy nation the kingdom of God you don't belong to the kingdom of God or you don't belong to Israel or the holy nation because of your DNA jesus taught that you are not saved because you have Jewish DNA if you read the four canonical gospels that's something Jesus is constantly reminding the Jews oh you say you're a son of Abraham you think you're a son of Abraham because of your DNA your genetics your genealogy jesus says that he can was it Jesus or John the Baptist he can make sons of Abraham from these stones what matters is faith faith in action a faith that works as James says in chapter 2 uh verse 24 I believe it is a man is justified not by faith alone but by faith and works yes we believe and as soon as we believe we begin to obey what Jesus taught us love your neighbor take care of the poor turn the other cheek patience meekness poor of spirit humility charity almsgiving prayer fasting all of these things Jesus teaches in the four gospels we need to read the gospels we need to obey what Jesus tells us to do in my new book Christian Patriot 12 ways to create one nation under God I talk about different ways in which 12 ways in which we can change culture society um families even ourselves to create a Christian culture a Christian nation and one of the things I talk about in there I actually list out from all four gospels every commandment Jesus gives in the four gospels it takes up like three or four pages in the book but I did that because I want Christians when they read the book to say here Jesus says "If you love me keep my commandments." I was like "Okay well what are the commandments of Jesus?" So I went through the whole Matthew Mark Luke John every time Jesus tells you to do something I copied and pasted that in it's three or four pages of just Jesus saying "Here's what I want you to do." Because Jesus expects us to be his disciples he didn't spend that long on earth but he gave us many teachings he gave us many instructions so we need to know what those instructions are and with faith we must accomplish the will of Jesus Christ as he taught us to pray thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven we have to do that there is uh another verse that I want to share with you before I do Q&A this is from St paul it also disproves dispens dispensationalism this Galatians 3:16 he says "To Abraham were the promises made and to his seed." And he saith not "And to his seeds," plural as of many but as of one and to thy seed which is Christ here St paul further disproves what Senator Ted Cruz says senator Ted Cruz says if you bless Israel you'll be blessed we already saw that in Genesis I'll put this verse over here that he doesn't say bless Israel he says bless Abraham and then Paul in the New Testament Galatians 3:1 16 says that God blessed Abraham and his seed but he didn't mean seeds as in all the Jewish people all the Abrahamic people he said seed as in one and to thy seed and then he says which is Christ the blessing that comes from God through Abraham is not all the descendants of Abraham that would be all the Arabs all the Jews the Idommites the Samaritans he says it refers to one seed one descendant he says Christ that's why by the way when you read the New Testament the book of Matthew begins with a boring genealogy you're like why do I have to read this genealogy at the beginning of the New Testament because Matthew is showing you that Jesus Christ descends directly to Abraham because Jesus Christ is the one seed the one descendant by which we are blessed does that make sense this proves that dispensationalism is wrong the people of God is not a secular state the people of God is not determined by DNA the people of God is determined by faith in Jesus Christ and that's what Paul teaches in the book of Galatians so I'd encourage you Galatians is a very short book you can probably read it in under 10 minutes read Galatians paul makes the statement that we are not saved through the law of Moses people aren't saved just by being Jewish being Jewish doesn't mean you get a free ticket to heaven he says what matters is that you are justified by faith in Jesus Christ that's the book of Galatians and here again he completely destroys the dispensationalist argument that somehow the people of God is just the descendants of Abraham and if you bless Israel you will be blessed no he says here and to his seed he says not to his seeds as in many but as of one and to thy seed which is Christ the Bible is about Jesus Christ the Old Testament people of Israel that was to prepare a geographic lo location in a group of people who would welcome who would be prepared by the commandments of God by the prophets by the priests by the holy kings to prepare a place for the Messiah to be born and the great tragedy is that most of them in the first century rejected Jesus Christ and so we see St paul we see St peter we see St john the early apostles say the holy nation the people of God are those who assemble around Jesus Christ we call that in Greek eklesia eklesia means a gathering those who are called out to gather around Jesus Christ and ecclesia is usually translated in English as the church but it means so much more in Greek it means those who are called out and brought together the eklesia so I'm going to go to Q&A and I want to hear from y'all do you think that Senator Ted Cruz uh is right i hope you don't i hope I spent enough time showing that and and Tucker didn't Tucker didn't give the full Catholic answer but I think Tucker Carlson knows that the statement of Senator Cruz is faulty i wish I wish Tucker had had this verse in front of him Genesis chapter 2 so he could read it and say "Where does it say Israel where does it say support Netanyahu where does it say send money where does it say send weapons because it doesn't and then you could also bring out 1 Peter 2:9 you are a holy nation talking to Christians or the real Israel and then Galatians when God makes the promise to Abraham and his seed it's to one seed Jesus Christ not many seeds one seed Jesus Christ by the way in Galatians Paul also calls Christians Israel let me pull that out for you it's in Galatians yeah here we go galatians 6:16 i'll add that to the screen for you so you can write it down and and uh sorry I got to copy and paste it takes a little second here here we go boom galatians 6:16 and whoever shall follow this rule peace upon them and mercy and upon the Israel of God but in in Galatians chapter 6 he's talking about Christians so here Paul in Galatians also refers to Christians as quote the Israel of God he's not talking about Netanyahu he's not talking about Israel in 2025 he's talking about believers of Jesus so if you are a member of the one holy church and you join the church through baptism and you must be baptized with water not beer not coke you know water and the priest must say I baptize you in the name of the father and pour water on your head where it touches your skin and the son and of the holy spirit that's how you're validly baptized and when you're baptized by the priest you are a member of the Catholic Church you can then receive confirmation which is the sealing with sacred crism on your forehead which gives you the fullness and the gifts of the Holy Spirit and then you can receive the eukarist which is the body and blood of Jesus Christ and it's the blood of the new covenant so you're fully a part of the new covenant every time you worthily receive communion in a state of grace and that means you are as Paul says the Israel of God the church is Israel israel is the church where is Israel in 2025 israel is the church the end all right we're going to take comments and questions before I do real quick we have uh our second sponsor today and it's one that I've enjoyed using and it's been a big help to me and has to do with energy sometimes we feel exhausted weighed down you struggle through the day and the culprit might be a sluggish overworked liver and the reality is your liver is constantly attacked by processed foods environmental toxins GMOs microplastics fluoride so many things one of the great things about being in Israel is the food is just so much better they have more rules against GMOs and toxins and you know all kinds of pesticides and I think just you just feel better eating the food here but for example back in America you're taking in all those toxins and that's hitting your liver and 100 million Americans now suffer from an overworked and sluggish liver according to the American Liver Foundation that's one in every three Americans has an overworked and sluggish liver so what can you do i really recommend that you get a supplement that's going to help strengthen and help

people with us live and let's go let's do some super chats i'm live here in Rome and we got first one from James Delaney he says "As someone who supported Ted Cruz for president in 2016 I'm disappointed in him this is before I found the traditional at mass you etc." Yeah I I met Senator Ted Cruz had dinner with him i'm from Texas so he is one of our senators um he's done some good things but on this point he's just so off and I can't I mean I can't really blame him if he's a Baptist he learned this in Sunday school he's probably heard dozens of sermons saying "Send a check to Israel we got to support Israel we got to give Israel weapons israel Israel Israel." And so he's just been in a way brainwashed into thinking that God's people plan A is Jewish people living in Palestine and if you actually look at what Paul says and Peter says you realize the church is the fulfillment of the people of God the church is the chosen people you see that in almost all the epistles of Paul he refers to us as the chosen ones the chosen people the elect of God so you know I think there's a lot of people it may not be their own fault but they've just heard this growing up and we have to educate them we have to say "Look you whether you know it or not you're a dispensationalist." And like what are you talking about a dispensationalist believes in a Jewish dispensation and a Gentile dispensation and so in your mind you're thinking you're just seeing two lenses and that's your entire outlook on life and what you really need is a covenant theology where you see the covenant with Adam and Eve and the covenant with Noah and the covenant with uh Abraham and the covenant with Moses and then the covenant with Jesus Christ as sort of expanding the mercy and grace of God throughout the whole world till it becomes completely universal over the whole world and the Greek word for universal is catholicos catholic right so the new covenant is truly Catholic it's universal it includes Chinese people it includes Argentinian people it includes Russian people it includes Australians it includes people from Ghana from the United States of America uh all people because Jesus said "Go to every nation and preach everything I told you." So Ted Cruz is uh unfortunately going off Sunday school theology that's just not based Uh Sweetie Boy Sweetie Boy says "Thank you for telling the truth doctor." You're welcome thanks for the super chat sven Anderson says "Ted Cruz thinks it's blasphemy to criticize the wicked vineyard tenants meanwhile Jesus was flipping their tables read the parable bro." Yeah if you read the parables of Jesus you realize so many of the parables are about coming to your own people and being rejected by your own people i mean that's the first chapter of chapter of of the gospel of John he came unto his own and his own received him not um he here is talking about the parable of the wicked tenants at the vineyard where the father keeps sending people you know to the vineyard hey you know and they keep persecuting him finally he sends his own son and they kill his son obviously that's talking about God the father sending the prophets sending the prophets sending the prophets finally he sends his son Jesus Christ and they crucify his son and by the way you might think well I have a Jewish friend and since my friend is Jewish he goes to heaven automatically what what no the only way you go to heaven is through Jesus jesus said John 14:6 I am the way and the truth and the life no one comes to the father except through me that's what Jesus says the only way to Jesus the only name by which you can be saved is Jesus Christ you must call upon the name of Jesus to be saved that's what the Bible says that's the New Testament god is not looking down on the world and being like "Oh that Chinese person just believe in Jesus they're baptized they died they now come into heaven oh and then here's a Jewish person they don't believe in Jesus they think Jesus according to the Talmud is is boiling in hell in human excrement but since they have Jewish DNA they get to come to heaven automatically that's not the gospel that's not the New Testament the Jew according to Paul the Jew and the Gentile enter heaven through the same gate and that gate that door is Jesus Christ and Paul says Jesus is the salvation first for the Jew and then for the Gentile because the Jewish people were his people he was born to the he's preached to them first they got the first invite and then the invite goes to the Gentiles but it's the same invitation you're saved whether you're Jewish or you are Vietnamese the gospel is exactly the same the salvation is the same it's the same baptism the same confirmation the same eukarist the same confession the same last rights there is no special way and Paul talks about that in Galatians reb one says dispensationalists will always use Numbers 24 which specifically names Israel still doesn't current still doesn't mean current nation government we are the new Israel yes as you see in Galatians 6:16 "And whoever shall follow this rule peace upon them in mercy and upon the Israel of God." He's talking about those who follow Jesus they are the Israel of God thank you Rev One for the super chat appreciate you rev one has another super chat thinking about joining Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest Church an hour away but I do feel guilty about leaving the local Novasoro parish it's becoming less traditional advice well Rev I don't know if you have a family but I think that becomes the number one concern i'm a father i have eight children i have a wife my number one vocation in this life is to my wife to make sure she gets to heaven to pray for her to love her to cherish her to give her everything she needs to be a spiritual leader a spiritual head in the home and also to provide that to our eight children and it's awesome i mean we're in Rome right now on pilgrimage praying rosaries going to mass doing eucharistic adoration venerating relics it's amazing but in the day-today life you know you have your children from birth until 18 and then even after that but they're in your home from 0 to 18 you must do your best to make sure that when they are in mass there is reverence there is order the sermon is orthodox there's nothing we you get home after church at lunch and say you know when father was saying uh this weird stuff about pride or was saying you know all all religions lead to you that's not true you don't want to be in a situation where you're having to correct bad theology and sermons with your children you also want to make sure especially when they're teenagers when they're going to confession that there's not some weirdo priest who has bad theology in his head about hearing confessions make sure he gives a valid absolution that he gives proper spiritual advice to your children so that they learn to mortify sin and become saints so liturgy sermons confessions also kateesus for the sacraments as a father my experience I don't know everyone's experience my experience is if you join a traditional paris parish you'll get reverent liturgy and I know the Institute of Christ the King is just like chef's kiss like the best liturgy they they do so they just do a great job you'll get that sermons you want orthodox sermons and then you want confessionals where the priest in the confessional is a orthodox priest Catholic priest who is giving instruction and advice to your teenager and your young kids and your teenagers that is in conformity with the traditional moral teaching of the church for me I don't want to run any risks i want to make sure that I'm providing the best nutrition for my children and so for me that decision was to go to the traditional Latin mass parish because we get good sermons good confessions beautiful liturgy you know solemn high mass good choir um and I think it's forming me as a Christian it's forming my wife it's forming my kids and for me that is the number one priority so I just I I speak from my experience as a father as a dad and I think if you're in that position you know you gota you got to make the move but again you could be in a amazing Nova Oral parish i I know awesome priests who are diosis and priests who preach amazing sermons celebrate reverent liturgies do a fantastic job are orthodox and encouraging in the confessional again so I'm not denigrating any of those i'm just saying in my experience with my family where I live that has been the best solution for me all right uh we're coming up on the hour but I'm going to go into the general chat see what you guys are saying in there um Antonio Pedro says "Dr taylor what is the church position on someone that publicly supported and voted in a Zionist and dispensational dispensationalist that wants to build the third temple while leading us to World War II?" Yeah in my book Antichrist and Apocalypse I talk about how many dispensationalists want to build the temple in Jerusalem because they they're dispensationalists they believe in the Gentile dispensation and they believe in the Jewish dispensation and they want to bring about the end of the Gentile dispensation and bring about the Jewish dispensation how do they do that in their mind they say "Let's rebuild the temple let's get a red heer we'll sacrifice the red heer we'll build the new temple and we can get back to plan God's plan A with the Jewish people from a Catholic point of view the rebuilding of the Jewish temple will be accomplished by the Antichrist the beast the Antichrist beast will rebuild the temple and he will set himself up in the temple and he will declare himself to be the true Messiah we know him to be the false messiah the anti- messiah which in Greek is the antichrist if you want to learn more get my book Antichrist and Apocalypse it's in the link below here on YouTube in the show notes you can click on it order a copy uh so you ask "What about someone who publicly supported and voted for Zionist dispensationalists and building the wall?" I think it's I think it's all leading to the Antichrist it's all leading to setting up not the church as the people of God that's centered on Jesus Christ but setting up the nation of Israel with a rebuilt temple the sacrifice of the red heer the setting up of the Antichrist and then the whole world and many Christians are going to turn and say "Oh this is the covenant we should follow we're going to follow this new Messiah in Israel in Jerusalem." And that's the end times my friend i think dispensationalism is going to lead many Protestant Christians into the system of the beast with a new temple in Jerusalem with the sacrifice of the red heer and the worship of a so-called Messiah an anti- messiah an antichrist and that's going to be a very sad day this is why we must have our theology correct this is why I am a Catholic because as I read the Bible I read the Bible through four times and as I started studying theology and reading the church fathers I realized that the only church on earth that taught everything in the Bible was the Catholic church for example James says "If you're sick if you're dying you should call the presitters the priests of the church to anoint you." I didn't know any Protestants who did that that's called last rights extreme uncction but Catholics did it so I was like okay well here's a verse that I can only tell that Catholics are following that you know Jesus says "Take eat this is my body this is the chalice of the blood of the new and everlasting covenant." And then I read the church fathers they all believed that the bread and the wine turned into the body and blood of Jesus the Eastern Orthodox believed that the Catholic you know I had been an Anglican Episcopalian we kind of believed it but we kind of didn't i said "Well there's the Catholics again." I st I studied what the Bible and the church fathers taught about contraception the only church on earth that says contraception is a sin artificial contraception condoms birth control pill etc it's a grave mortal sin the only one was the Catholic Church so as I studied the church fathers as I read through the Bible over and over again I saw the Catholic Church is the one church that does the controversial things that other Christians have given up on and I said in fact I was in Rome when this happened i was an episcop I was an Episcopalian priest i was at St peter's and I was standing near the bronze statue of Peter if you've been in St peters and it was a mass with Pope Benedict I 16th it was 2006 and it came time for communion and I knew I was not a Catholic and I could not receive communion and that just I knew that I was a sismatic i knew I was outside the one true church i knew that I was not a member of the Catholic Church i knew that Peter was buried below the floor in St peter's and I knew that Pope Benedict the 16th was the successor of Peter and he was standing directly over where Peter was buried and it was just like the Holy Spirit opened my eyes and I said this Peter is down there the successor of Peter is here this is the true mass this is the church on this rock I will build my church and I knew I couldn't receive communion and it was such a disordered broken feeling that I felt it in my guts in my stomach i felt sick to myself and I knew in that moment if I did not seek to become a Catholic I knew that I would go to hell i knew that I had to endeavor to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church or I would be outside the people of God outside Israel outside the chosen nation so it was uh a few days a I I went into St peters i brought my kids and some of my friends i said "This is the spot in St peters i was standing right here in St peter's when I had my conversion to Catholicism." It was at a mass with Pope Benedict the 16th in 2006 i was standing right here my buddy Robert took a picture of me i wish id had it for the show but took a picture with my kids right there on the spot where the Holy Spirit hit me like a lightning bolt and I knew I had to become a Catholic all right we're up on the hour thanks for everybody for watching um please pre-order my book we're trying to make it a New York Times bestseller and if you pre-order it it will really help us so you can go to christipatriotbook.com it's the first link below me here on YouTube christianpatriotbook.com and please pre-order a copy or maybe pre-order two or three copies that would be awesome but please do pre-order the book Christian Patriot 12 ways to create one nation under God we also have our Virgin Mary course Marology over at New St thomas Institute there's a link below you can join for $1 and get started on our new course on the blessed virgin Mary i cover the Marian dogmas mary as mother of God Theotocos her perpetual virginity Mary and her immaculate conception the assumption of Mary body and soul i go through devotions rosary i also teach you how to pray the rosary and I teach you how to pray the rosary in Latin and the prayers in Latin if you want to learn that so you can get started with all that if you want to at New St thomas Institute that's nsti.com but if you want to join for $1 you can use the link below here in YouTube all right friends thanks for watching today um if you know anyone who's a dispensationalist maybe send them this video i also did another video here on YouTube just type my name Taylor Marshall dispensationalism and I break down a lot more verses and explain more what dispensationalism is today's show is really more on the Senator Ted Cruz Tucker Carlson moment which I thought was a good opportunity to share more about this error and to show that we are the chosen people the kingdom of God in Jesus Christ so pray your rosary every day if you don't pray the rosary you're not on the team and until next time remember our Lord Jesus Christ is you're the light of the world and the salt of the earth so go out there and be salty god bless we'll be heading home from Rome tomorrow so I'll be back uh in the studio next week god bless and Godspeed
