Replacing Israel? CBN News with Brian Sanders
July 21, 2026
Here’s the 1st of two interviews my friend Brian Sanders did last week at CBN. This one begins at the 24:17 mark.
Steve Martin

Here’s the one from their new show.
🚨 “ARABS ARE FROM ARABIA. JEWS ARE FROM JUDEA. THERE ARE ZERO JEWS IN ARABIA. THERE ARE 2 MILLION ARABS IN JUDEA. TELL ME WHO IS OCCUPYING WHO?”
🚨 “ARABS ARE FROM ARABIA. JEWS ARE FROM JUDEA. THERE ARE ZERO JEWS IN ARABIA. THERE ARE 2 MILLION ARABS IN JUDEA. TELL ME WHO IS OCCUPYING WHO?”
This is the question nobody wants to answer.
Because when you look at the actual history, not the social media version, not the college campus version, the REAL history, the narrative completely falls apart.
The word “Jew” literally comes from Judea.
Judea. The ancient name for this land. The land where Jewish kings ruled, where Jewish temples stood, where Jewish history was written in stone thousands of years before the modern world drew a single border on a map.
The Hebrew language, the oldest continuously spoken language tied to this land, was being written here before most of today’s nations even existed.
King David made Jerusalem his capital around 1000 BCE.
The First Temple was built here in 957 BCE.
The connection between the Jewish people and this land is not a modern political invention. It is one of the most documented, most archaeologically verified facts in all of human history.
And yet here we are.
The same people whose entire name is derived from this land are called colonizers on it.
Meanwhile, Israel is home to over 2 million Arab citizens who hold full voting rights, serve in the Israeli parliament, sit on the Israeli Supreme Court, and live with more freedoms than Arabs in most surrounding countries.
Zero Jews are permitted to be citizens of Saudi Arabia.
Zero Jews live in Gaza.
And the Jewish people are the ones being called occupiers of the land that literally bears their name.
I am not here to hate anyone. I am here to ask the question that more people need to start asking.
If you support truth, if you support facts, if you believe history matters, then you owe it to yourself to look deeper than the hashtag.
Because once you do, everything looks very different.
Drop a 💬 and tell me what you think.
“I Think I Got It” by Steve Martin
Think I Got It
It is a dilemma. Maybe for you too?
For years I have been wanting to have a disciplined, connected life with the Lord, God the Father (Abba as some call Him), Jesus (Yeshua) and the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh).
Reading my Bible daily, a chapter from the “Old” and “New” testaments, maybe a Psalm, add on one or two devotionals…and pray in tongues for those He gives me. And…listen to my worship song playlist.
The best time for me, for all of this, is before the sun comes up. Quiet. Slow. No distractions.
Often I connect with them, the Three. Sometimes I struggle and think, “Is this just too much routine? Is it really worth it and lasting? Do they really hear me and my heart?”
But most important, do I connect with their heart? Their prayers? Their vision?
Of course I have read many biographies of saints gone by…both in the Bible and those whom followed in their footsteps over the centuries. Even the ones in our day. All the while wanting to be sure I am connecting with the Lord.
I think I got it. After about, say, 50-60 years.
Our Father wants us to spend time with Him. Forgot the news for awhile. Let the emails, texts and all messages stay as they are, waiting on the phone.
Give Him time. Just give them time.
And when you do…the discipline, connection, refreshment, fulfillment will come.
I think I got it. And them too.
Ahava and shalom,
Steve Martin

July 21, 2026 Bethlehem, Israel
Just recently All Israel news reported on a Proposed German bill seeking to criminalize denial of Israel's right to exist.
https://allisraelnews.com/proposed-german-bill-seeks-to-criminalize-denial-of-israels-right-to-exist
The bill is good but on the other hand how shocking that you need a bill like this in the first place.
But we have seen it on the streets, Pro Palestinian protests shouting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
Do some of these people actually know what this means when they shout this?
It is pretty obvious, that it means free of Jews!!
To deny Israel's right to exist is Hate, Pure and simple. You can't state it any clearer. These people are full of hate for the State of Israel.
Can you think of any other country in the world where people are shouting and demonstrating and saying you have no right to exist?
But Israel has a wonderful history, Israel has been the home for the Jewish people for 78 years And I must say it has been a home for its many Arab and Christian population too.
But more than that the land of Israel has a Biblical history. Spanning thousands of years.
God truly made Abraham into a Great nation, and the fact is, today you can go and see Abraham's tomb in Hebron, The tomb of the Patriarch cries out to everyone that God kept his promise to Abraham.
The Land of Israel has a rich history.
King David rules the United Kingdom.
Elijah and Elisha prophesied in a Split kingdom and Jesus ministered in an Occupied kingdom, Which wasn't called Palestine.
And in AD 70 the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed and the Jews were exiled.
That is a brief history but a history nevertheless. You cannot deny the Jewish presence in the Land.
Israel Is God's baby but the world wants to abort it. To deny Israel's right to exist is sickening and mocks God.
Previous generations have seen the miracle of a Nation being born in a day. God kept his word and brought the Jews back to the land and Israel was restored.
Before 1948 it was an occupied land, With a remnant of Jews, but then the Jews came home and God kept his promise. Yet again.
He said he would bring them back from the North, the South, the East and the West.
God's heart was always to bring the Jews back and restore them in their land. He punished them because of their sin but he also restored them.
God disciplines us at times when He needs too. It’s painful and then He restores us. How wonderful God is as a father to us.
Today there is a spiritual battle for the nation of Israel and I must congratulate Germany for the proposal of this law which I hope gets passed, More countries need to do the same.
But can you imagine if Israel failed to exist, and the Jews failed to exist!
What would it mean for you and me as Bible believing Christians ?
Quite simply I would have to throw my Bible away. Rip it up and put it in the garbage where it belongs and declare that God has failed. He cannot keep His promises so you may as well live however you like.
That would basically be it, Everything I have done in ministry would be a waste of time because God cannot be trusted.
But we know that is not true.
God exists, Israel exists and the Jewish people exist. The Bible confirms Israel's existence Past, Present and Future.
Coming soon to an Israel near you is the 1000 year reign of Yeshua the Messiah, where satan will be bound and Yeshua (Jesus) will reign on a throne of righteousness and Justice fulfilling the prophecy of Micah 5 v 2
“But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Though you are little among the thousands of Judah, Yet out of you shall come forth to Me The One to be Ruler in Israel,
Whose goings forth are from of old,
From everlasting.”
The first part of the prophecy has been fulfilled, Jesus was born in Bethlehem and I trust God with the second part of the prophecy.
Jesus will rule his people Israel – not Palestine.
So you can shout from the river to the sea all you like. God is on the throne, Jesus will be on the throne and rule his people Israel.

“Wine To Make Your Face Glad” by Cathy Hargett
“WINE TO MAKE YOUR FACE GLAD”
Cathy Hargett
Times of discipline still come to even “seasoned” believers, as I am a witness. I must say that I resonate with all my heart to the Scripture, “..do not lose heart when He rebukes you...” (Hebrews 12:5)
It’s not easy for me, and probably not easy for you, to receive discipline or rebuke, especially when I know that I have no excuses. It means that I have not obeyed the Lord and need this correction. Because of the feelings of shame, it’s not easy to ask for and receive forgiveness when you know it’s all your fault.
But the same Scripture that talks about His discipline assures us that He only disciplines those that belong to Him. In fact, at the beginning of the verse, it even says that this is for our “encouragement” -
“And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son?..” (Hebrews 12:5a)
To make the reality of redemption even more filled with grace, the Word tells us that
“... God disciplines us for our good in order that we may share in His holiness.”
(Hebrews 12:10)
It’s really true – His mercy endures forever. He redeems and washes us clean and fills us with His holiness, and not only holiness, but His righteousness and His peace. This is just way beyond understanding, but it’s what He promises to us who belong to Him –
“No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.”
(Hebrews 12:11)
It was in this frame of mind that I sought Him today. It took quite some time to receive His correction, His discipline, and to muster up the strength to receive His forgiveness and restoration. But again, the Scripture is so very proven and true – He has compassion on all He has made.
He invited me to His table. It was there that I once again received the fullness of my King Yeshua, His complete restorative forgiveness and redemption and joy. I ate the Bread of Life. It was when I drank the Wine of the new covenant, His precious Blood, that my heart received the fullness of joy.
He was revealing that this is the Wine that makes the face glad. It is the precious Blood of Yeshua, the Wine of the Kingdom, that fills us with eternal joy – our faces shining with the Oil of His Presence– His Spirit filling us – the Bread of His life sustaining us! How I praise Him!
“..Wine that gladdens human hearts, Oil to make their faces shine, and Bread that sustains their hearts.”
(Psalm 104:15)
