Under 50?
Listening to Tucker Carlson, Candice Owens, and others on TikTok or YouTube will give you a strong opinion about world events. Especially about Christians and Christianity. And even more so about Israel and the Jews.
A strong biblical foundation is necessary if one is to have a good perspective of this world and the direction it is going. And those who call themselves “Christians, and yet speak vehemently against biblical truth, are not. They simply are not Christians.
You can call yourself something you are not, but your walk tells others who you really are. Remember, “You will know them by their fruit.”
15 “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 You will [p]know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor figs from thistles, are they?
17 So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 So then, you will [know them by their fruits.” Matthew 7, NASB
I grew up under the teaching of Derek Prince, an Englishman who came to the USA in his 60s and later started Derek Prince Ministries in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I was on staff a total of eight years with his ministry. His strong stance and clear, solid teaching on deliverance, gifts of the Holy Spirit, and especially Israel gave me the biblical foundation I needed.
His message, “Our Debt To Israel” which I first heard in 1979, changed my life forever. I was 25 at the time.
When modern day teachers, prophets, podcasters and “influencers” speak lies and half-lies of Israel, in time the One Who knows all will remove them. He always has judged those who oppose His plans and purposes. Study world history and see for yourself.
I pray daily for my children and grandchildren, as a good father and grandfather should. They are under 50 (yet) but they too need the strong, biblical truths buried deep in their hearts, so when the “liar of all lies” spews out his words, from those among us, they too will know the truth and stand strong on His Word, not theirs.
