Latest / The Lila Rose Show / E266: Freedom of Speech, Islam, and the Left w/Andrew and Noleen Sedra | Lila Rose Show
Transcript
- 0:00That's the difference between leftism and Christianity is that
- 0:02we believe that transformation fundamentally happened in the
- 0:05sword. In Christianity, our word is our
- 0:07sword. In Islam, their sword is their
- 0:10word. That's why they have apostasy
- 0:12laws and blasphemy laws. I think about the words of Saint
- 0:15Paul. You can beat me.
- 0:16You can try to kill me. I'm shipwrecked.
- 0:18And like he went through everything to spread the Gospel,
- 0:20never raising the sword. Freedom is fundamentally a
- 0:23Christian concept. It's not a liberal concept, it's
- 0:26not a secular concept, it's not even a feminist concept.
- 0:29I think knowledge of other religions is really important
- 0:31and I think most people have no idea about the life of Mohammed
- 0:34or the founding of Islam. I'm putting my life in danger by
- 0:37me telling you what Islam is and where Islam is taking the West.
- 0:46Do we take religious liberty and our personal security for
- 0:49granted in America? Today's conversation is an
- 0:52intense one, shaped by the experiences of a religious
- 0:55refugee from Islamic Egypt and a South African whose family left
- 0:59their home for fear of racial violence.
- 1:01Andrew and Noeline Sager have a warning message to Americans
- 1:04about what can happen if the foundations of religious freedom
- 1:07and moral values are chipped away.
- 1:09We discuss modern feminism, leftism, radical Islam, weak
- 1:12Christianity, and the implications of all of these
- 1:14things for our life today. If to enjoy these conversations

- 1:33As with most guests on The Lila Roe Show, I don't agree with
- 1:36100% of everything our guests share, but I think the
- 1:39conversations that we have are valuable.
- 1:42Andrew and Noeline Sedra, thanks for joining.
- 1:44I'm so glad you guys are here. Yeah.
- 1:46Lila, it is awesome to be with you.
- 1:48It's a beautiful place. California is very beautiful.
- 1:51God is good that it's God's. It's God's California, right?
- 1:55This is his state. I love it.
- 1:56I didn't feel it. And I'm glad.
- 1:57I'm glad this worked out because I know you're here because of a
- 2:00lost passport. And I benefit because you you
- 2:03have stayed longer. So we get to have this sit down.
- 2:05Yeah. So God's appointed moment, I
- 2:07guess. Yeah, shout out to Andrew's
- 2:08brother who took Andrew's passport home back to Sydney, so
- 2:13you know, so. He has the passport.
- 2:15He has, yeah. So I didn't lose it because I
- 2:17don't lose stuff. I just misplace it and I find
- 2:20that three weeks later like I did have that so.
- 2:23But you had to go get another one, it sounds like and so, but
- 2:26so you have now you're going to have two, but one is cancelled
- 2:28and stuck in Australia. Yeah, it was the whole thing.
- 2:31It was, yeah, traumatic. OK, so we obviously had on your
- 2:36lovely Martin and Millicent the baby brother.
- 2:39I know you're the Big Brother. Hairy brother.
- 2:41Yeah, the not twin brother, not the twin.
- 2:44Brother. So I'd love to just hear a
- 2:45background on the 2 of you. You have doing some beautiful
- 2:48work in Australia championing life, championing marriage.
- 2:53That's very controversial, especially in Australia.
- 2:56I think in some ways they're more far gone than the United
- 2:58States. Tell me about how you guys
- 3:01started your work and also how you got met each other and got
- 3:03married. Yeah, we are.
- 3:05We're very grateful to the Lord. We kind of grew up in the
- 3:07Islamic world of Egypt as a family, so we escaped Islamic
- 3:12Egypt to Australia as religious refugees.
- 3:15My dad is a Christian. He was literally just preaching
- 3:18the gospel, converting Muslims to Christianity, which is
- 3:21illegal in Egypt. So you have what you call
- 3:24blasphemy laws, which are designed to make sure if this
- 3:27conversation happened, if a pastor or any Christian
- 3:30criticizes Islam, they will get killed on the street by fatwa or
- 3:35they will go to jail where they're going to get tortured or
- 3:38die. You also had what you call
- 3:39apostasy laws, and apostasy laws were designed to make sure if
- 3:43any Muslim ever becomes a Christian, they will get killed
- 3:47on the street by Muslim Brotherhood or Hamas or some
- 3:49form of Islamic terrorism organization, or they would go
- 3:53to jail and get torture. So we kind of grew up in that
- 3:56Islamic world. So I did literally adna test one
- 3:59year ago and I was 98 to 99% Coptic.
- 4:03So we would like the original pagans that when Mark came to
- 4:07Egypt in 5080, there was a massive revival.
- 4:10The gospel was preached to the end of the earth.
- 4:12So Egypt by 360 was like 90% Christian.
- 4:17So we would like the ancient Egyptian Coptic people that as
- 4:21Islam took over Egypt by the force in 680, they literally
- 4:26killed the man, raped the woman, enslaved the children, burned
- 4:31the Bible, destroyed Egypt. Christianity was literally
- 4:36genocided in Egypt that in the last 1400 years, Islam and
- 4:40Muslim, Islam and Muslims literally genocided Christians
- 4:46to the point that Egypt went from 90% Christian.
- 4:49Now it's 10% Christian from 0% Muslim.
- 4:53Now it's 90% Muslims. So my family, me Martin joined.
- 4:58The reason we have that crazy courage is because we literally
- 5:01escaped from the Islamic world for simply proclaiming the word
- 5:05of the Lord. That's why we're there.
- 5:07People say you got that crazy and extreme.
- 5:09I'm like, I'm not really extreme.
- 5:10I just grew up in a very extreme world.
- 5:13So you were born in Egypt? I was born in Egypt.
- 5:16And your dad, why did he choose? Was he born in Egypt too?
- 5:19Your. Parents and your mother were
- 5:21born in Egypt. So my dad was literally, he had
- 5:24a massive encounter with the Lord.
- 5:26So you know, so as a consequence, there was that fire
- 5:28of God burning in him in Egypt. Most Christians would simply not
- 5:32speak about the gospel because it's illegal.
- 5:35You need to understand proclaiming the name of Jesus
- 5:37outside of the four walls of church in Egypt is a criminal
- 5:41offense and punishable by jail or you get killed in the street.
- 5:44Just a few weeks ago there was a young Christian man called Bola
- 5:47Bolas who went to jail and we don't know how long he's going
- 5:52to be there for simply helping a young Muslim to know Jesus.
- 5:56So we have blasphemy laws, apostasy laws.
- 5:58So you need to understand revival was where I was born was
- 6:01illegal. You could never build a church.
- 6:04You can never establish a church.
- 6:06Fulfilling the Great Commission, which is going to all the world
- 6:09and make disciples was literally a criminal offense.
- 6:13So coming to America and to Australia like this is crazy.
- 6:17You can actually build a church. So you're like, I better get
- 6:20buildings and somebody. You're just like, yeah.
- 6:22You know, and that's why I'm like, I'm very passionate.
- 6:25Like dude, I grew up in a world where you could never, ever
- 6:28having a revival with a criminal offence fulfilling the, the
- 6:31Great Commission was illegal. And that's why I'm very
- 6:34passionate about bringing the Kingdom of God down because
- 6:37Egypt has been Muslim for the last 1400 years.
- 6:40And guess what? There is nothing we can do about
- 6:42it. And and you growing up, were you
- 6:44worried about the safety of your father because he became an
- 6:46evangelizer, he became a preacher, A. 100.
- 6:49Percent in the family growing up or maybe you had trust in God,
- 6:52of course, but there's this like insecurity of I could my father
- 6:55could come not come home today. The practicality of living in
- 6:58the Middle East as a Christian is very, very, very dangerous.
- 7:01So you went to church not knowing what would happen to you
- 7:04if you happen to live in South Egypt.
- 7:06Sometime they'll have a raid. They would go to a church and
- 7:09just behead people. So we grew up in a world we're
- 7:12going to church on Christmas or Easter.
- 7:14There was a high possibility of you dying, literally.
- 7:18And on the other hand, for some reason I saw Christians learning
- 7:21up to go to church every single week during Christmas, during
- 7:26Easter, with the possibility of you getting bombed or beheaded.
- 7:31So that is the reality of where I grew up now, preaching the
- 7:34gospel. You're crazy.
- 7:35When you come to Australia, I remember Martin telling the
- 7:39story on the show and the kidnapping threats and the death
- 7:42threats to the point where your dad was like, it's not in good
- 7:44conscience. I can't keep my family in Egypt.
- 7:47So he basically fled them and the family to Australia for
- 7:50religious persecution. And they got, they got refugee
- 7:54status, right? You've had refugee status in in
- 7:57Australia when you were born and raised.
- 7:59Are you from Australia? No, I was born in South Africa.
- 8:02Oh wow. Interesting.
- 8:03Oh. Yeah, So I think it's very
- 8:05interesting, like God brought two people out of Africa to
- 8:08Australia and now we're in America, like doing ministry.
- 8:12It's just only God could do that.
- 8:13But I don't know. I think, I'm not sure how
- 8:15familiar you are with South Africa.
- 8:18We've had very similar stories of like, you know, my mom being
- 8:21in a car with me and my sister who was a infant at the time.
- 8:25They'd like run out of gas on the side of the road and being
- 8:28faced with like a mob of black South African men wanting to,
- 8:32you know, smash the window in to come in and rape her and the
- 8:35supernatural power of God, like showing up.
- 8:38And you know, the amount of stories we have where similar
- 8:41situations, but a different political situation of like our
- 8:45lives were genuinely threatened for the colour of our skin for
- 8:48the most part. So my parents were very similar.
- 8:51We can't in good conscience raise our children in this
- 8:54country. And so they differently.
- 8:57It's not refugee status. They applied for working visas
- 8:59after two years, landed in in Australia and then a few years
- 9:03later Andrew and I meet. I think in Egypt you're facing
- 9:07Islam. In South Africa you're facing
- 9:09critical race theory. Oh yeah, But it's institutional.
- 9:12So you have the black. What?
- 9:14What was happening there? Yeah, I mean, I I shared this
- 9:17actually a few months ago on my social media.
- 9:19I don't know if you saw like when Trump met with the South
- 9:22African president and kind of pressed him on some of the
- 9:24political statements that are being made by politicians in the
- 9:28country that the government is just outright denying.
- 9:31But he had shown videos, played videos in the Oval Office of
- 9:34what is happening. And I kind of.
- 9:36Literal genocide of white South Africans.
- 9:39Yeah, so I had put a video out kind of explaining that there's
- 9:41a lot of stories about this, but like my granddad dad was a white
- 9:45farmer who was murdered in his house by a man who said I killed
- 9:49him because he's white and I want to take back my.
- 9:51Land. Sorry.
- 9:52Well, yeah, I mean, thank you. It's just.
- 9:54A Did that happen recently or when he that was?
- 9:56About eight years ago now and crazy enough.
- 9:58So sorry, it's been happening for that long and and only now
- 10:03is kind of the recognition coming, which honestly, thanks
- 10:06to Elon Musk, I think he was the kind of the one who who told
- 10:09Donald Trump about that President Trump.
- 10:11So it's a very interesting situation.
- 10:14And I think coming from a place, a country of that much
- 10:18hostility, I think I was just raised to different and I think
- 10:22it's not a coincidence. Yeah, I think, I don't think
- 10:24it's a coincidence that Andrew and I met.
- 10:25Like our families are very resilient and also very
- 10:28passionate about the gospel. Like when you're in a situation
- 10:32where you know you're not living comfortably, you really have to
- 10:35make those tough conversations and tough decisions is, do I
- 10:38actually believe what I believe? Am I willing to die for what I
- 10:41believe? And I think that's just why we
- 10:43found each other, because we've made those decisions
- 10:45individually before we even started dating so.
- 10:49When you were growing up, did you ever go to your
- 10:51grandfather's house? Have you ever been?
- 10:53I did he so he lived on like farmland.
- 10:55So we saw him every now and then.
- 10:57But it was it was tough because after moving to Australia, what
- 11:01my parents were trying to do, their next mission was to bring
- 11:03their families over. Including your grandfather.
- 11:05Yeah, well, we tried to bring everyone.
- 11:07And so it was kind of a this had happened obviously nine years
- 11:10ago, but my parents tried ever since we moved.
- 11:13We moved when I was 7. I'm now 29.
- 11:15So it was a long time of doing that.
- 11:17But politically it was just way more complicated.
- 11:20There was a lot going on and there were times where you think
- 11:23maybe the country's going into a good direction, but for the most
- 11:26part it was like things going downhill.
- 11:28We got to get our family out and unfortunately we weren't able to
- 11:31do it in time. I think in the West and the US,
- 11:34it can be hard because white supremacy historically is part
- 11:36of our, our story. And it's horrible, right?
- 11:39I mean, the way that we enslaved people because of the color of
- 11:41their skin, evil against God, against our Lord, it's a sin,
- 11:45right? Racism is a sin.
- 11:47And so when we hear stories of the, the opposite kind of
- 11:51racism, like out of South Africa, like your father
- 11:53endured. And I know there's both racial
- 11:55tensions on both sides in South Africa.
- 11:56It's, it's, it's complicated, it's messy.
- 11:58And we could have a whole podcast episode just on that and
- 12:01your experience with it. But I think in the US, it can be
- 12:05hard to understand an experience like yours because we're used to
- 12:08more the white supremacy and the, you know, the, the, the
- 12:11destructive policies against blacks in this country.
- 12:14Historically, our, our historical record isn't
- 12:17destructive institutional policies against whites.
- 12:20It's. Against blacks and I don't think
- 12:21that it's a very, I don't think it's a wise take to kind of pick
- 12:24a side, if that makes sense. Like nobody's picking sides
- 12:27racially. You have to kind of look
- 12:29holistically at the political complications.
- 12:32So obviously, yes, there was apartheid in South Africa, there
- 12:35was a messy history as well. But what I am doing is looking
- 12:38at what is happening now and it's a narrative that is being
- 12:41silenced because it does not align with your classic critical
- 12:44race theory ideologies. So what I hate is ideologies
- 12:48that get inserted and asserted into people's experiences, into
- 12:52the facts, things that are actually happening because,
- 12:55well, it's not Marxist. It doesn't line up with the that
- 12:57we're trying to promote. So let's just shut down
- 12:59everybody's personal experience and the facts that are actually
- 13:02happening. Yeah, it is a massive swing in
- 13:04cultural revolutions, as you can know, like the media screaming
- 13:07race, race phrase. Jesus came preaching grace,
- 13:10grace, grace. The media saying so that the car
- 13:12of your skin, Jesus said that he's came to transform your sin.
- 13:16The media keeps on making people focus on their colour.
- 13:20Jesus literally came to transform your character.
- 13:23And what we're watching across the West is literally the racism
- 13:27narrative being flipped because racism is not a skin issue, it's
- 13:31a sin issue. You can be a minority and
- 13:34racist. You can be a majority and
- 13:36racist. You can be black and racist.
- 13:39You can be white and racist. Racism is a sin issue.
- 13:43It's a heart issue, it's a human issue, it's not a system issue.
- 13:47But the problem happens when you get the.
- 13:49Less it can become a system issue if enough people's heart
- 13:52issues are not dealt with. But you're like, what you're
- 13:55saying is it starts in the heart.
- 13:56It starts in the heart, it ends with the system.
- 13:57And that's the difference between leftism and Christianity
- 14:00is that we believe that transformation fundamentally
- 14:02happened in the soul, not in the system.
- 14:05The system is the expression of the soul.
- 14:07But ultimately, unless repentance takes place, unrest,
- 14:12heart regeneration takes place. You are just playing with a
- 14:15bunch of system and politics and policies.
- 14:17And we can pass all the laws in the world, but if there's no
- 14:21genuine heart transformation, this is just a bunch of
- 14:24whatever's ideas. And we're literally watching
- 14:27that. And you're now seeing the the
- 14:30flipping of racism coming from the white, coming from the black
- 14:33in South Africa. This is the actual reality.
- 14:36Like babe, you were in Bible College in Hillsong and then
- 14:39they literally told you that black people cannot be racist.
- 14:43Yeah, I mean, this was a. Great theory, obviously.
- 14:46Yeah. I mean, I think it's just it's
- 14:47complicated because there was a conversation.
- 14:49Theology of social justice. Theology of social justice and
- 14:52the the quote kind of came up that you can't really be racist
- 14:56to like a white person and obviously.
- 14:59They've always been the ones to do the greatest perpetration and
- 15:01harm is is the idea. Yes.
- 15:03And I think just most people were at the time that was like
- 15:06what, 7 years ago. So it was pretty fresh that my
- 15:08grandfather had been murdered over.
- 15:10The colour of his skin, yes. And I think there were like a
- 15:13couple of white S Africans in the room that were like, well,
- 15:17what about this group of people? Like you can't just have a
- 15:20blanket statement like that. And that just goes to back to
- 15:23what Andrew's saying. It's, it's not a skin colour
- 15:26issue, It's a sole issue. And I guess that's why we're in
- 15:28the ministry business. That's why we are dedicated to
- 15:31building the church. Because as much as we're
- 15:33passionate about politics and we want to see some legislative
- 15:36change, we actually believe at the core of it, you know, people
- 15:40are the problem. The sole is the problem,
- 15:42original sin is the problem. So if you can transform someones
- 15:46soul and do the work of God to actually bring transformation
- 15:49internally, then you'll see it express itself externally.

- 17:38What have you noticed in your work and especially coming from
- 17:41your different backgrounds, which I think give this such a
- 17:43unique perspective to Australia and the US?
- 17:46Because I think in Australia and the US, we are very comfortable.
- 17:50We're very comfortable. Christians are very comfortable
- 17:53because we have not seen the persecution that Christians
- 17:57daily endure in nations across the globe.
- 18:00Not all nations, but many. Increasingly, actually it's it's
- 18:03heating up right now. Thank the Lord for President
- 18:05Trump, who's actually highlighting it like Nigeria,
- 18:09Sudan, it's happening everywhere.
- 18:14Well, I think in the, in the West, we struggle to understand
- 18:17it because it's so unfamiliar to us.
- 18:19And, and I do think some Christians in the West are like,
- 18:22oh, you know, you're trying to like, you know, they, they force
- 18:25me to bake a cake for a same sex couple.
- 18:27That is a form of religious persecution.
- 18:29It's economic persecution against Christians.
- 18:31It's wrong, it's immoral. I I think that's something
- 18:33that's being worked out in the US as an example.
- 18:35So it's not to say there's zero persecution here, but there's
- 18:39you're not going out and risking your life the way you are in
- 18:41other countries now. Something happened, like Charlie
- 18:44Kirk's assassination, and it seems very.
- 18:47Persecution Like Charlie Kirk is a religious martyr whether you
- 18:50like it or not. He's a prophet St. and a
- 18:53religious martyr. He got killed while literally
- 18:56proclaiming the word of the Lord.
- 18:57He was literally speaking about the death and resurrection of
- 19:00Jesus Christ. 5 minutes because before he murdered he got
- 19:03literally killed for speaking freedom, family and faith.
- 19:09His blood was spilled on the street.
- 19:13Charlie Kirk is a modern day Marta.
- 19:15It didn't look like what you expected.
- 19:18All you need to do is to look at that video, which was
- 19:21heartbreaking, mind blowing. I remember we woke up on a
- 19:25Thursday and we saw that video on like, Oh my gosh, it's
- 19:27happening. And paradoxically enough, we now
- 19:30have in America what you call a religious martyr, which is like
- 19:33an oxymoron or a paradox like you never really had in America,
- 19:37someone killed for faith, family, freedom.
- 19:39Well, I think about this. Happening now.
- 19:41The kids at the school in Michigan, what's the name of the
- 19:44school? Can you pull up the name the
- 19:46Catholic school where these young kids were at mass?
- 19:50One week before. Yes, one week.
- 19:51Before about to I mean I'm getting chills talking about I
- 19:54want to cry talking about I've been following these kids
- 19:56stories because some of them are recovering from their attempted
- 20:00murder and and many of them did die and were murdered and it was
- 20:04the same killer as the alleged killer of Charlie, which was a
- 20:08young radicalized person who hated God so much.
- 20:12Yes, identifying as LGBTQ, particularly the T who?
- 20:17Although the alleged assessment of Charlie, it sounds like his
- 20:20boyfriend was a or girlfriend, he was a transgender young
- 20:24person, Deeply confused and disturbed.
- 20:27But ideology, anti Christian and anti reality.
- 20:31Because Christianity isn't just a matter of faith.
- 20:33It's a matter of God's Kingdom and natural order and design.
- 20:35It's reality as we understand it and as we can perceive it.
- 20:39God gave us the intellect and the ability to perceive his
- 20:41order and his his design. So it's reality.
- 20:44It's obviously faith. It's divine revelation, but
- 20:47those children were killed for their faith.
- 20:50Yes. Annunciation.
- 20:51Thank you, Harris. It's it's happening.
- 20:54It's happening. There are two massive enemies of
- 20:57Christendom at this point of time, what I call the gay
- 20:59jihadist and the Muslim jihadist.
- 21:02And these are the two groups of people that bomb churches, that
- 21:05shoot Christians. It's crazy that when I would see
- 21:08what happened to Charlie Kirk on the street from a gay jihadist
- 21:11that I call them. That's exactly what happened to
- 21:13Egypt from the Islamic Jihadist. And what's crazy at the moment,
- 21:16they're now combining forces Quiz for Palestine, gays for
- 21:20Gaza. You're literally watching the
- 21:22combination between gay jihad and Muslim jihad take place.
- 21:28You saw it seems. So incompatible though, because
- 21:30Islam as I understand it and we've been trying to learn more
- 21:33about Islam on the show, but Islam as I understand it
- 21:36considers, you know, LGBTQ like a disorder, that form of
- 21:39disordered sexuality. Now they are OK with polygamy,
- 21:42but that form of disordered sexuality, same sex relations as
- 21:46totally antithetical to their faith.
- 21:48Yeah, yeah, but it's a very paradoxical thing because Islam
- 21:52is LGBTQ but Islam, Islam is not pro LGBTQ.
- 21:56But at the same time Islam has its own sexual perversion stuff
- 22:00like Islam is not clearly pro abortion but at the same time
- 22:05Islam is a death cult. Like the Quran said, kill the
- 22:08infidel wherever you found them, Kill the polytheist where you
- 22:11found them. That polytheist happened to be
- 22:12the Jew. That polytheist happened to be
- 22:14the Christian. That polytheist happened to be
- 22:16the Zionist. That polytheist happened to be
- 22:17the gay. That polytheist happened to be a
- 22:19communist. That polytheist happened to be
- 22:21every single person that doesn't subscribe to violent Allah and
- 22:26his demonic ideology of Islam. So the problem we're facing with
- 22:29Islam, they perceive Christians as polytheist.
- 22:32And the reason we're polytheist is because we worship.
- 22:36We're two things. We are adulterers and they were
- 22:38polytheist. The reason we're adulterers is
- 22:40because we worship Jesus, who is the God, man and the main God.
- 22:43And they claim that Jesus is the prophet.
- 22:45Jesus is just a prophet. So for them, we are the epitome
- 22:48of being an infidel and we're the epitome of being a
- 22:51polytheist and we're the epitome of being an adulterer because we
- 22:55worship a man. But as Christians we believe
- 22:58Jesus is a God, man, Jesus is a main God.
- 23:00Jesus is God becoming flesh and dwelling among Jesus as a
- 23:03personification manifestation of God on earth.
- 23:07So Islam perceives Christians as polytheist and infidel.
- 23:12It gets worse for us because we believe in the Trinity, because
- 23:15we believe in the Trinity, we they believe that we're
- 23:17polytheist. We worship three different gods,
- 23:21the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
- 23:24And Islam literally said kill the polytheist wherever you find
- 23:28them, kill them, beseech them, chase them and wait and ambush
- 23:31for them. It said particularly the people
- 23:34of the book, that's Surah 929, the Surah of repentance.
- 23:37So it's repentance in Islam doesn't happen by heart
- 23:40transformation. It happens by intimidation,
- 23:43force, power and war. That's how Islam works.
- 23:47It's just it is what it is. Jesus spread the gospel by
- 23:49preaching the gospel. The blood of the martyrs is the
- 23:52seed of the church. The blood of the infidels is the
- 23:54seed of Islam. So Muhammad was not a good
- 23:57preacher. After preaching for 12 years, he
- 23:59converted like 80 people. After 12 years of Jesus preached
- 24:02for three years and he converted like hundreds of thousands of
- 24:05people. Just in one incident when the
- 24:07boy with the 2 fish and the five lives there was literally 5000
- 24:10men and around 15,000 people in. Three years, Jesus.
- 24:13Shook the world? Yeah.
- 24:15In the 1st 10 years of church history the disciples were able
- 24:19to spread the gospel to the end of the earth.
- 24:21Asia became Christian. Algeria became Christian.
- 24:24Libya became Christian. Turkey ex Constantinople became
- 24:28Christian. Jerusalem became Christian.
- 24:30Christianity spread so much that all of the ancient world wrong.
- 24:34It was Paul and Peter became Christian.
- 24:36Not by the sword. Not by the sword, by the
- 24:38preaching of the world, by love, by love, literally by the blood,
- 24:42because the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church.
- 24:44So we Jesus died so that you might live.
- 24:46Muhammad killed so that he might survive.
- 24:49I think about the words of Saint Paul like I will be all things
- 24:53to all people. Like he just you can beat me,
- 24:55you can you can try to kill me. I'm shipwrecked.
- 24:57And like he went through everything to spread the gospel,
- 25:00never raising the sword, always out of love and self sacrifice.
- 25:04And this is what I think people like forget and this is what
- 25:07we're seeing even now in culture.
- 25:08I mean, Charlie was an example of some like similar to Paul,
- 25:12you know, somebody that says I'm going to use the word as my
- 25:15weapon. That's the offensive weapon we
- 25:17are given in Scripture and Ephesians, it says, you know,
- 25:19you're the weapon is out. War is not against flesh and
- 25:23blood. And then it goes on to talk
- 25:24about put on the armour and the only offensive weapon is the
- 25:28sword of the spirit, which is the word of God.
- 25:30So we don't need any other weapon to fight.
- 25:33We need the word of God. And obviously there are cases
- 25:35politically just war, all that kind of stuff.
- 25:37But as a Christian, the Christian lifestyle, the
- 25:40Christian ethic is that our weapon is the word of God and we
- 25:43don't use that to weaponize. We use that to fight in this
- 25:46spiritual back. That's why in Christianity, our
- 25:49word is our sword. In Islam, their sword is their
- 25:53word. That's why they have apostasy
- 25:56laws and blasphemy laws, because they cannot stand the test of
- 25:59time, They cannot stand the test of truth.
- 26:02They are unable to negotiate, to argue, to present their case
- 26:06because they don't make sense. Islam is a conspiracy theory.
- 26:10It's a conspiracy theory. It's a historical nightmare and
- 26:13it's plagiarism from the biblical text.
- 26:17That's actually what Islam is. I think there's also an
- 26:20anthropological difference that's very foundational about
- 26:23the human person because God, you know, the Christian God
- 26:26created us as to be sons and daughters ultimately of him and
- 26:29to have the gift of freedom. And so we don't we, you know, we
- 26:33are called to put trust and faith in God, but we are called
- 26:35to use our reason and to correspond with God's grace.
- 26:38And so there's a lot of freedom in Christianity, like Christ
- 26:40sets us free. And I think the, you know, and
- 26:43again, I, I don't want to speak as, as to say the heart, I know
- 26:47the heart of every Muslim because I've met incredible
- 26:49Muslims. I would say that maybe they're
- 26:52it's a Christianized version of Islam, actually not maybe the
- 26:54historical version. Of Islam.
- 26:56Or just good, just like people that are trying to love their
- 26:59neighbor, like, work hard like. Well, so it's not to say like
- 27:02all Muslims are this way. Of course not.
- 27:04Yeah. But when you talk about the
- 27:05anthropology of Islam, I mean the very fact that they reject
- 27:08God becoming man, like this idea to him to them as anathema,
- 27:12right? So you need to get killed if you
- 27:14believe that, because this has appeared to me.
- 27:16That's what the Quran said, kill the infidel and the polytheas
- 27:18wherever you find them. It said in the Quran, Surah 929,
- 27:22the Surah chapter of repentance, it said particularly those of
- 27:25the book. So that is the Christians and
- 27:27the Jews. That's why you see all that
- 27:31tension between Israel and Palestine or Christian or Jews
- 27:34and Muslims. And that's also why you will
- 27:36always see that tension between Christians and Muslims.
- 27:40The difference between US and Jews is that we're a little bit
- 27:42nicer because we have that New Testament.
- 27:44But with the Old Testament, the Jews will declare war on the
- 27:48enemies of Yahweh, whatever that means.
- 27:50But Christians were just a nicer version and that's the reason we
- 27:53literally got genocided for sure in the Middle East.
- 27:56Yeah, I think it's very like coming kind of full circle to
- 27:58what you were saying originally about how in America, Australia,
- 28:02Christian countries in the West, you don't really see persecution
- 28:05in the same way you see it in places like the Middle East.
- 28:08And that just comes back to what you were saying about freedom.
- 28:10Like the foundation of Christianity is freedom.
- 28:13It's a foundational theme. And if you backtracking history,
- 28:17you only really see freedom politically, but also socially.
- 28:20You only see it when Christianity becomes the
- 28:23religion of the time. You only really see that in the
- 28:26context of Christianity. So I do like to your point.
- 28:29Feminism is a Christian disease. My body, my choice.
- 28:32Free reproductive justice. Yeah, these are all Christian
- 28:35extensions. It's a diseased version of
- 28:37Christianity because the the kernel of feminism that is true,
- 28:41that it started with, that was part of our faith, which is that
- 28:45God made them male and female. They're both made in God's
- 28:47image. They're equal in dignity.
- 28:49And so to create a legal system where you ultimately, you know,
- 28:53put down women and elevate men and make them inequal when it
- 28:56comes to basic human rights is wrong.
- 28:58And so that's, you know, there you go.
- 28:59That's good. Which is an.
- 29:00Idea that Christianity came up with, not feminism.
- 29:03And that's what I try to explain to people, especially people
- 29:05that are like, you know, want to justify the roots of feminism
- 29:08being as good. I'm like, yeah, but
- 29:09ideologically that wasn't feminism that did that.
- 29:12It was Christianity that did that.
- 29:13So let's go to the root issue. The root issue wasn't feminism
- 29:18should be instated in society. It should be Christianity should
- 29:21be instated in society. And that even goes to your point
- 29:24You were talking about like some Muslims are good people.
- 29:27Like I agree, we're all made in the image of gods.
- 29:29There is a desire to do good and to be good.
- 29:32But we as Christians believe in being transformed into the image
- 29:35of Christ. So yes, I made an image of God,
- 29:37but I also need to be transformed into the image of
- 29:40Christ. So that is reflected very
- 29:42differently. They don't have systems of
- 29:44morality in Islam the way that we do in the West.
- 29:47So you'll have have a Muslim that lives in the West that is
- 29:50basically brainwashed in the culture of the West, which is
- 29:53foundationally Christian, that looks at things like abortion
- 29:56and says, yeah, that's wrong. That looks at someone being
- 29:58murdered and says, yeah, that's wrong.
- 29:59Of course it's wrong. Well, yeah, you believe it's
- 30:01wrong because of Christianity. If you look pragmatically at the
- 30:05book in the Quran, if you look at their writings, they don't
- 30:09have systems that kind of explains to you the morally, the
- 30:12moral issues with murdering someone on the street.
- 30:15In fact, you see kind of the opposite.
- 30:16It's actually justified, yes. You know how much I love and
- 30:21support Every life.com, America's only pro-life diaper
- 30:25company and also its fastest growing diaper company.

- 31:10East, we literally have a three or four class system.
- 31:14If you were a Muslim and your ID on your driver license, you had
- 31:17number one. That's literal systematic
- 31:19oppression. If you're a Christian, you had
- 31:21#2 if you were a Jew, you had #3 if you're an atheist, you went
- 31:26to jail. So that is what I call by
- 31:29systematic oppression because Islam is spiritual narcissism.
- 31:33It's literally new spiritual narcissism.
- 31:36You're not made in the image of God because you're the in the
- 31:38image of God. You are only as valuable and as
- 31:41good because you're a Muslim and because you become a Muslim.
- 31:45So if you're not a Muslim, guess what?
- 31:47In in Egypt, a Christian can become a Muslim, but a Muslim
- 31:51cannot become a Christian. So it's what you call spiritual
- 31:54narcissism where everything goes one way and one street and
- 31:58talking to my all like feminist feministies.
- 32:00I'm not. Feminism is a Christian heresy.
- 32:03It's a Christian heresy. There is no feminism in the
- 32:06Middle East. If you're a woman in the Middle
- 32:08East, you can get beaten. Your actual legal and political
- 32:11voice is worth half of the men. A man is allowed to have four
- 32:16wives. You're only allowed to have one
- 32:18husband. In fact, the Quran and Muhammad
- 32:20calls women dumb, stupid, and mentally inefficient.
- 32:24So if you're a woman who happens to live in the Middle East, you
- 32:28will hate life like all the people.
- 32:30Free Palestine. Free Palestine.
- 32:31Like, dude, as a woman in Palestine, you will never be
- 32:34able to leave Gaza without a written permission from your
- 32:37husband and your dad. There is no freedom in
- 32:40Palestine. Freedom is fundamentally a
- 32:42Christian concept. It's a biblical concept.
- 32:44The Bible said it this way, and you know the truth, and the
- 32:47truth will set you free. Where the Spirit of the Lord is,
- 32:50there is freedom. Whoever the sunsets free is free
- 32:54indeed. So freedom is not a gay concept.
- 32:57It's not a liberal concept, It's not a secular concept.
- 33:00It's not even a feminist concept.
- 33:02Freedom is fundamentally a Christian concept.
- 33:06Mohammed literally had 11 wives. 11 wives.
- 33:09Including one very young. Yeah, my child.
- 33:13Aisha who was he married her at like 6 and he slept with her at
- 33:179:00. So this is my problem with
- 33:20people that call themselves Muslims.
- 33:22It's so devastating to consider that because again, back to this
- 33:26question of Muslims in the West or good Muslims like of of which
- 33:28there are many, that this is the founder, this is the holy
- 33:31Prophet that you know, the God spoke.
- 33:34Through the Holy Prophet, Muhammad is better than Jesus is
- 33:38higher than Jesus. It's more perfect and holy than
- 33:41Jesus. In fact, Muhammad is the epitome
- 33:43and the ultimate example of what it means to be a good human
- 33:47being to the point that Muhammad cannot sin.
- 33:51So what the problem with Islam? And that's the problem with
- 33:54Muslims and Islam. So is it this?
- 33:56Is it the concept of Ishma that got that Muhammad?
- 33:59God protected Muhammad from significant, significant moral
- 34:03failing, so maybe they did a little something.
- 34:05So the problem that's why you're problem facing with with all
- 34:07that stuff, Lila, and that's why the left and Muslims collide
- 34:10very well because both of them are sex cult, both of them are
- 34:13death cult, the LGBTQ abortion kill the envelope whenever you
- 34:17find them. Muhammad literally slept with a
- 34:20kid. So the problem that you're
- 34:21facing is that you cannot address that because if you are,
- 34:27if Muhammad slept with a young girl and he's the most perfect
- 34:31holy prophet, that means you're not going to change Muhammad to
- 34:35meal your morality. You have to change your morality
- 34:37to meet Muhammad. So this is a problem, not just
- 34:41that Muhammad literally married his son's wife Zainab.
- 34:46So one day Muhammad was literally going to his
- 34:48son-in-law, I think his name was Ali, his room and the wind was
- 34:52blowing. So he kind of saw Zainab a
- 34:54little bit naked. So he ended up saying, Oh my
- 34:56gosh, she's a bit pretty pretty. So he ended up banning having
- 35:01being a foster parent and he ended up saying that God told
- 35:04him to marry Zainab. So this guy, and this is funny,
- 35:07Islam, in the beginning, Mohammed said you can only have
- 35:09one wife. And then he said you can have
- 35:10two wives and he said you can have three wives and then he can
- 35:13have four wives. So he keeps on contradicting
- 35:14himself. And that's a problem if you are
- 35:16a Muslim. Mohammed is the epitome of
- 35:18morality, is the epitome of excellence.
- 35:20It sounds like even at this time that was offensive to Arab
- 35:24custom that predated Islam because they thought marrying
- 35:28your son's wife, even if it's an adopted son, because they're
- 35:31seen as a biological son once adopted, it's incestuous, but
- 35:34Muhammad still married. Her So in the Muslim world it's
- 35:37illegal to adopt children because Muhammad had a little
- 35:41bit of like Filipili for his son's daughter so he ended up
- 35:45making his son divorce his daughter and marrying her.
- 35:48Dude if you study the life of Muhammad not to mention Mary the
- 35:51Coptic Alcuptaya, she was the Egyptian young girl that was
- 35:55gifted by Egypt to Muhammad. When he declared war on the
- 35:59whole world he went to Egypt and told them Islam to Islam.
- 36:02He said to Egypt, if you surrender to Islam you will have
- 36:05peace. At the time the church, the
- 36:07Coptic church was very weak work, liberal and gay.
- 36:10So instead of fighting against Islam they ended up
- 36:14surrendering. So they end up gifting Muhammad,
- 36:16a young Egyptian Coptic girl called Mary.
- 36:19Guess what Muhammad did with her?
- 36:20He slept with her. She became literally his
- 36:23concubine. When in Islam, in the Quran it
- 36:25said that the woman of your right hand are yours, that you
- 36:28can sleep with them. So the moment Islam conquers a
- 36:31nation, the woman there become their property.
- 36:34That is Islamic literature. I'm not making up stuff.
- 36:37Is is just what it is. So Mohammed ended up talking
- 36:39Mary Akutiya. She became sex slaves.
- 36:41And the only way to become to get out of sex slavery in Islam
- 36:45is to marry the person to become a Muslim and to marry the person
- 36:49that took you as sex slave. So that was your only pathway to
- 36:53freedom? And that would elevate your
- 36:54status slightly. So now you're just instead of a
- 36:56concubine, now you're a wife A. Wife.
- 36:58So that's what happened to Mary Akuptaya.
- 37:00So you've got Asia, you've got Zainab, you've got Mary
- 37:02Akuptaya. You got literally he literally
- 37:05killed Christian and Jewish leaders.
- 37:07No one. What's wild to me is with all of
- 37:09the talk of Islam, with all of the, you know, let's respect
- 37:12other faith traditions, which I think we should respect other
- 37:14people's ability to question and practice other faiths.
- 37:17Ultimately, freedom, religion is essential.
- 37:19It's a cornerstone of our country.
- 37:21But I think knowledge of other religions is really important.
- 37:24And I think most people have no idea about the life of Muhammad
- 37:27or the founding of Islam. There's very little just.
- 37:30Placing is that he is the perfect prophet of Allah.
- 37:33He's more holy and perfect than Jesus.
- 37:36Muhammad is the final prophet and all of you to become a
- 37:38Muslim you have to say Ashadu and Allah Allah Allah Allah and
- 37:41Ashadu and Muhammad Rasulullah. You have to say that I believe
- 37:43in one God, Allah and he's one and only true Prophet Muhammad.
- 37:47So you have to understand this is the epitome of Islam and I
- 37:52will get potentially at some point attacked from what I'm
- 37:56saying. Yeah, you think you'll be
- 37:58physically attacked for what? You're or shot and this was you
- 38:01have to understand. In the name of Jesus, I pray
- 38:03protection for. Me to say that this is in the
- 38:08Islamic world is punishable by death on the street by a random
- 38:12person, a random Muslim, they're allowed under a fatwa from an
- 38:16imam to kill me. Yeah, cold blooded and they will
- 38:19not go to jail. Yeah, and this is something
- 38:21Andrew spoke to Charlie Kirk about a lot.
- 38:23Like, they had had multiple podcasts on this, too, even like
- 38:27up to three years ago, talking about the dangers of Islam, not
- 38:30just culturally but also politically.
- 38:32Like, yes, there's the danger of if you culturally get enough
- 38:36influence from Muslims in a Christian society, they cannot
- 38:39outnumber you just by their passion and by their aggression
- 38:41and determination. But also politically in
- 38:44Australia, we're seeing our government is trying to get
- 38:46together it. It really is blasphemy laws, but
- 38:49they call it Islam. You're not.
- 38:50Allowed to say what? What?
- 38:52Andrew, your point, you should be able to have the freedom of
- 38:55religion, but you should should also be free to criticize other
- 38:58religions that you don't agree with well.
- 38:59It's very free to criticize Christianity.
- 39:01Oh, example, do that all day long here.
- 39:03And I think you should have the freedom to do that.
- 39:05These the toughest questions of God voice your toughest concerns
- 39:08and and frustrations. Yeah, that should be a
- 39:11cornerstone about Christianity or about Islam or about
- 39:13anything. There's the problem.
- 39:14Islam does not believe in that freedom is fun, fundamentally a
- 39:18Christian concept. Because we have the truth,
- 39:21because we got the truth, we don't mind you attacking us.
- 39:24I do not get offended. I'm being honest with you.
- 39:26When people mock Christianity, I'm like, the more you mock us,
- 39:29the more you prove that we have the one true God.
- 39:32I'm like, whether it's the Paris Olympics, whether it's all the
- 39:36sexual perversion, Hollywood stuff, I'm like, dude, I dare
- 39:39you to make fun of Islam. Well, I remember Charlie Hebdo.
- 39:42Charlie Hebdo in France, January 7th, 2015, satirical newspaper.
- 39:47And they made a joke about Muhammad.
- 39:49Yeah. And South Park makes jokes about
- 39:51faith all day long, you know, Christianity.
- 39:54And they jihadists went and stormed their offices and
- 39:59murdered 12 people. Yeah, because over over a joke
- 40:02about Muhammad. And what you're dealing with
- 40:04there is the Islamization of France.
- 40:06France is at least 8% Muslim. Yeah, America at the moment is
- 40:091% Muslim or one point. America is 1% of.
- 40:12America Australia is 3.5 that's why the death rates of our lives
- 40:16is increasingly we literally now have the anti terrorism police
- 40:19come to our church to investigate me for me saying
- 40:22this so next year I might be in jail from what I'm saying.
- 40:26Now, is that because of an Islamic lobby in the Australian
- 40:31government? Islamic lobby, they want to pass
- 40:34Islamophobia laws and they want to pass hate speech laws.
- 40:36So what? People don't understand we
- 40:38already have Sharia law in the West.
- 40:40Right now in London, 30 people are getting arrested if they
- 40:43dare to criticize immigrants, which most of them tend to be
- 40:46Muslim and I'm an immigrant myself and most of them tend to
- 40:50speak about Islam. So we already have across
- 40:53Europe, across London, across the West and in the making in
- 40:56Australia I literally have the anti terrorism police that is
- 40:59supposed to protect people from terrorists and I escape
- 41:02terrorism and I'm the one getting investigated.
- 41:05Do you feel like you are trying to warn the West before this
- 41:10gets worse? I should be there a long time
- 41:13ago. I don't know.
- 41:14Martin shared my story. I can share it today at the end.
- 41:16I shouldn't be here. I couldn't be here.
- 41:18I wouldn't be here if it wasn't forgotten.
- 41:20Tell me. Tell us.
- 41:22A few years before we immigrated to Australia in 2007, my dad
- 41:25converted a particular Muslim woman to Christianity.
- 41:29We literally showed her the love of God.
- 41:30Her husband was a Muslim. He was very very abusive.
- 41:33We used to literally provide food, shelter and love on her
- 41:36and preach a gospel to her. So as a direct consequence,
- 41:39because of us showing the love of Christ to her and preaching
- 41:41the gospel, she ended up repenting of the sin, becoming a
- 41:44Christian, getting baptized. What we didn't know at the time
- 41:48is that her husband was part of Muslim Brotherhood.
- 41:51Muslim Brotherhood like that the Hamas of Egypt, they're
- 41:53literally the founder of Haman. They're like the Taliban that
- 41:55Qatar. They're very sophisticated,
- 41:57wealthy, smart and violent. Kind of like the mafia.
- 42:00The mafia of the Islamic world, but they can run government.
- 42:03They're already in America. Actually, they're, they're in
- 42:06Florida, then California. They have a lot of nonprofits
- 42:08here. They, they have a plan to take
- 42:10over America. What we didn't know is that her
- 42:12brother was part of Muslim Brotherhood.
- 42:15So because he was very, very angry at my dad for taking what
- 42:18is most precious, what is most important to him, which is his
- 42:21beautiful wife, he decided that he was going to take what is
- 42:24most precious to him, which wasn't me and my younger brother
- 42:26John. He decided that he was going to
- 42:28get two of his Muslim Brotherhood friends.
- 42:30He's going to kidnap us, kill us, behead us, send our bodies
- 42:34and heads back in a bag to my bag that he was going to send
- 42:39our bodies and heads back in a bag as a as a revenge to my dad
- 42:44for taking what's most precious team.
- 42:46What? She's his wife.
- 42:47He orchestrated the plan, he made the plan.
- 42:49He waited for us as we used to go to school every single day in
- 42:52the morning, 7:00 AM as we used to go to school.
- 42:54So him and his two other modern brotherhood men came in the
- 42:57morning at 7:00 AM, orchestrated the plan, planned the plan to
- 43:00execute the plan of taking me and my younger brother,
- 43:03kidnapping guns, beheading us, sending our bodies and heads
- 43:06back in the back just like what it's on October 7th.
- 43:09He made the plan. He came 7:00 AM in the morning
- 43:11as me and my younger brother were going to school.
- 43:14We're about to go from our apartment, from our apartment to
- 43:17the yellow bus. That Muslim Brotherhood men and
- 43:19the two other Muslim Brotherhood men, all of them, they felt a
- 43:22power and a force and they froze and they could not move at all.
- 43:27They froze and they could not move at all until me and my
- 43:30younger brother, we went to the yellow school bus.
- 43:32A yellow school bus drove to the end of the street and the moment
- 43:35the bus disappeared, they started to move again.
- 43:38The guy was very angry and furious.
- 43:39Like how dare you, you Muslim Brotherhood cowards, you don't
- 43:42know how to kill a bunch of little kids who have killed a
- 43:44little person and Christians. So he was very angry and
- 43:46furious. He decided to do the exact same
- 43:48plan the week after he got two different Muslim Brotherhood men
- 43:52to execute the exact same plan. 7:00 AM in the morning, he comes
- 43:54to our house, he comes to our apartment.
- 43:56He waits as me and my younger brother are about to go to
- 43:58school at 7:00 AM. And the moment me and my younger
- 44:01brother start to walk to the yellow bus, him and the two
- 44:04other Muslim Brotherhood men, they felt a power and a force
- 44:06take their hand and put it behind their head and they froze
- 44:10and they could not move at all. They froze in time, space and
- 44:13they could not move at all until me and my younger brother, we
- 44:16went to the yellow school bus. The door shut, the bus drove to
- 44:19the end of the street, the bus disappeared.
- 44:20And the moment the bus disappeared, they started to
- 44:22move again. The guy was very angry, confused
- 44:26and mesmerized by what was happening.
- 44:28See, we did not know that. If I knew that I wouldn't be
- 44:31going to school that day, I would have said, hey mum, can I
- 44:33please not go to school that day?
- 44:34If someone once behead me, I think she would have said yes,
- 44:36right? But the only reason we know that
- 44:39is because that evil, wicked and Muslim Brotherhood man came to
- 44:43my house, to my dad's house. So a few weeks later and told my
- 44:46dad, you're God saved you, your family and your children from my
- 44:51evil and wicked hand. He became a Christian.
- 44:53He got baptized and now him and his all entire family are
- 44:57Christian. Are they still in Egypt?
- 44:59Would they be willing to come on the show?
- 45:00Do. You think we can't?
- 45:02You're not, you're not in touch with them.
- 45:03Oh, they would get killed. Them and their own well they're
- 45:05part of Muslim Brotherhood, The Muslim Brotherhood part of the
- 45:08well they were they were so for you to reveal very.
- 45:11Look about their faith. They.
- 45:12Would be inviting you, you, you cannot.
- 45:14So they literally escaped to the bottom of Egypt.
- 45:17Like I know the name, but my dad said to me, you can't say it
- 45:19simply because Muslim Brotherhood.
- 45:22It's it's like a mafia. You will have to be killed.
- 45:24You, your family. And they're still there.
- 45:25And I think so. You're not sure?
- 45:27Yeah, I'm not sure. It's wild.
- 45:29It's so. So did you.
- 45:31Ever meet the sky or no it just. No, it was my dad, your dad.
- 45:34So my dad converted him, prayed the sinners, prayed with him and
- 45:38and he got baptized you. Were like 7 at the.
- 45:39Time I was 7 or 12, I can ask John was 7 or 8, my brother, I
- 45:43think I was 12. So the reality is I shouldn't be
- 45:48here. I couldn't be here if it wasn't
- 45:50for God. I believe God saved me to give a
- 45:53warning to America that God protected me so I can preach
- 45:56America. And I'm putting my life in
- 45:58danger by you, me telling you what Islam is and where Islam is
- 46:04taking the West. While the Christians are killing
- 46:06the babies, butchering the babies, cutting and butchering
- 46:08the next generation body parts. Islam is spreading like a virus.
- 46:12The replacement of the. Christians are killing our
- 46:14babies via abortion. It is the Christians this is
- 46:17Abortion is a Christian disease. That is a very important
- 46:22observation that you just made because.
- 46:23We can. We can.
- 46:24We can point at the disease is in Islam and activities and I
- 46:29think your difference would be true.
- 46:30Christianity rejects abortion, and I think what you're saying
- 46:33is true. Islam is Mohammed and his
- 46:36practices, which are which are bad.
- 46:38So that's an important distinction.
- 46:40Someone will say, well, you're talking about some bad Muslims.
- 46:42Actually, Islam is really good, just like, yeah, but you're
- 46:44about the ideology. But Christian ideology, abortion
- 46:47is a mortal sin. It's evil, it's wrong.
- 46:49It's the killing of God's child. It's the killing of God's image,
- 46:52black and white. But we have we have abortion in
- 46:54the Christian Church. Yes, we do.
- 46:56People who identify. As Christian who say they're
- 46:58Christian, Catholic, yeah, Protestant mainline whatever are
- 47:02getting abortions so. Liberalism and sexual perversion
- 47:05and gayness is a Christian disease.
- 47:07Yes. This is very controversial to
- 47:09say. It's not coming from the Middle
- 47:11East. It's coming from the West, Yeah.
- 47:13And like Christian disease, what you're saying is these are
- 47:16special sins, or not special sins, I should say, but these
- 47:19are evils that have been growing out of what was once a Christian
- 47:24country or should be a Christian country.
- 47:25Christian majority country. Excuse me?
- 47:28Well, it's freedom with that truth and liberty with that
- 47:30virtue. So it becomes unhinged and
- 47:33before you know it now we have taken the grace of God and
- 47:36manipulated it to mean something it wasn't supposed to mean.
- 47:39Yeah. So even going to your point
- 47:41about you were saying if it becomes a majority Muslim, I
- 47:44would even say you don't even need a majority Muslim country
- 47:47for it to turn. Like if you look at what's
- 47:48happening in the UK, it's not majority Muslim country.
- 47:51I mean, New York, yes, you just need 3%.
- 47:53You don't need very much of them because I think there are a lot
- 47:56more determined and they're a lot more aggressive and united
- 47:59in their ideology to bring about the Uma, this global Islamic.
- 48:03What do you think is going to happen in New York City now
- 48:06that? New York is gonna become London.
- 48:08He's gonna implement pseudo Sharia law.
- 48:11Yeah, indirectly. He will Islamize every single
- 48:15institution and give the feminists and the gay what they
- 48:18want and at the same time. Because those are basically
- 48:21heresies of Christianity and your view.
- 48:23Where the feminist and the gays they're.
- 48:24Dying. They're weakening the Christians
- 48:27anyway, so they're kind of like the enemy of my friend is my
- 48:29enemy, or the friend of my the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
- 48:33Well, the beauty of feminism, gayness, LGBQ, ABC, all this
- 48:36wheat stuff, it's self killing. Yeah.
- 48:38You can't have babies. Yeah.
- 48:40So the beauty if if I want to conquer your country, of course
- 48:43I'm gonna let you practice sexual perversion.
- 48:46You can't have kids anyway. You're gonna die.
- 48:48Of course I'm gonna you abort your babies.
- 48:50You're killing the people, I'm supposed.
- 48:52To think though, I mean, I wonder if someone that goes on
- 48:54mom Dommy, right? I think he was educated in the
- 48:57US. He, you know, Western, he's a
- 48:58product of the Western education system as my understanding.
- 49:01And but then he's culturally Muslim.
- 49:03I don't know how much of A practicing Muslim he is, right.
- 49:05And I wonder with someone like him, like Islam is sort of a
- 49:08flavor to him. It's sort of like, you know,
- 49:10like kind of like some cultural Catholics.
- 49:11They were. Raised.
- 49:12They were raised. In Catholicism.
- 49:13But they don't actually understand the gospel of the
- 49:15teachings of the Church. And so they're lukewarm.
- 49:17They're not. And then they go off and they
- 49:18become part of these other, as you call them, Christian
- 49:21diseases or extremist, you know? Again, lukewarmness ideology.
- 49:25Lukewarmness is a Christian disease, Islamic disease.
- 49:29You think so? Islam is a very religious
- 49:31ideology. In order for you to go to
- 49:33heaven, you have to pray five times a day, but you have to
- 49:36fast. But you would say your argument
- 49:38would be. And again, we don't know
- 49:38Momdami's heart, of course. And let's pray for Momdami,
- 49:41right? Especially he's an elected
- 49:42leader now. Yeah.
- 49:43He's a he's a child of God. Like, you know, he God wants him
- 49:46to be a child of God. He wants to adopt all of us into
- 49:48his family. Yeah.
- 49:49But so you think that with Momdami it's not just cultural
- 49:53Islam? Or it's not what I think, it's
- 49:55what he said. You need to the first thing he
- 49:58said yesterday. I'm a Muslim.
- 50:00I'm a socialist Democrat, and I'm proud of it.
- 50:03And I'm not ashamed. This is very, very important.
- 50:06The first thing he said. I'm a Muslim.
- 50:08Yeah. How many Republicans?
- 50:10Before I'm a, I'm a. Socialist Democrat.
- 50:12So Muslim is a culture, the religion.
- 50:15Socialist Democrat is just a political system.
- 50:18Yeah, this is very important. You have to notice when they
- 50:21speak. When he got asked a few weeks
- 50:23ago, do you believe in Sharia law, He was like, what is Sharia
- 50:27law? I'm not really.
- 50:28You don't know Sharia law. So he didn't answer the
- 50:30question. He literally said during the
- 50:32debate to Andrew Kuhmer, how do you not go to a mosque?
- 50:36The Islamization of New York is already there.
- 50:39It's not yet to happen. It is already there and it is a
- 50:43blueprint for every single Christian to understand what
- 50:46will happen when you ever elect a Muslim leader.
- 50:50No matter how gay they are, they're still Muslim, no matter
- 50:53how gay supporting they are. And at the same time, you have
- 50:57thought that Islam is a violent and tyrannical political
- 51:00ideology that pretends to be a religion.
- 51:03So what do you think's going to happen in New York?
- 51:04Because there's still the US Constitution governing all of
- 51:06us, right? Thank the Lord.
- 51:07And governing even the cities and yes, like even Gavin Newsom,
- 51:11who, by the way, was raised Catholic.
- 51:13So, you know, we have, I don't want people to think like, oh,
- 51:15you have special a hatred in your heart for this religion or
- 51:18this other religion, because it's not about a hatred for any
- 51:21human being. It's about calling out wrong
- 51:23ideology. That's what this is about.
- 51:25We love all human beings and we want peace with all men and all
- 51:28people, right. But it's war with the ideology
- 51:30and war with the spiritual in the spiritual realm.
- 51:32But I think about Gavin Newsom. He was this supposedly Catholic
- 51:35governor or excuse me, mayor now governor.
- 51:37And you know, I don't know that he would ever say he was
- 51:39practicing his faith. I think sometimes he'd say he
- 51:41would go to Mass. But all that to say, he was the
- 51:43the mayor in San Francisco who ushered in same sex marriage the
- 51:47church. And.
- 51:49Christian teaching, Yeah. Yeah, well, well, you can
- 51:53literally see what's happening in London at the moment.
- 51:55Sadiq Khan is arresting people who dare to criticize Islam.
- 51:59Sadiq Khan is the Mayor of London.
- 52:00He has been. He's a Muslim.
- 52:01He's an Afghani Muslim. Sadiq Khan has been in control
- 52:04of London for the last 12 years. In the last 20 years, 100,000
- 52:09white girls were raped and 80% of the rapes were by Muslim
- 52:13Afghani men. And the police didn't do
- 52:15anything about it. Yeah.
- 52:18You just hit. It 30% of those rapes happened
- 52:21by people called Mohammed. So 8070 to 80% of the rapes
- 52:26happened by Muslims. 30% of those people that performed the
- 52:28rape were called Mohammed. And right now these girls, they
- 52:32never got their day into court. The people never got to jail.
- 52:36In fact, the people that could start in Islam go to two to four
- 52:39years in jail. The people that do the raping
- 52:42will get one to two years in. Jail.
- 52:43I did see some reports. The father, I think of one of
- 52:46these girls was so distraught at the lack of justice for his
- 52:49daughter. And it was it was a it was, I
- 52:51think they call it a Pakistani rape gang.
- 52:53I think it's. A Pakistani.
- 52:54So what's happening at the moment?
- 52:55He ended up going to prison. Because.
- 52:57Because. His Islamophobia.
- 52:59Islamophobia, I think, or his, they called it racism because he
- 53:02was speaking out against the fact that his daughter had been
- 53:05brutally abused. So that's.
- 53:07Exactly what happened in Egypt, that's Sharia law.
- 53:10So if my daughter got raped, I will have to not go to the
- 53:13police or they're going to put me in jail in Egypt.
- 53:17I'm trying to download to you as an American because I think
- 53:20America has a problem of American narcissism.
- 53:22You see now with the woke right with the anti Israel crew, they
- 53:27don't see Islam as it is. They see Islam as what they want
- 53:30it to be. So I mean, I think it's like
- 53:33human tendency. We want to live in harmony with
- 53:35each other. We want.
- 53:36Peace. And we should pursue peace.
- 53:38I mean, at the end of the the game, at the end of the day, you
- 53:42speak truth to pursue peace, not with a lie, but to like big
- 53:46peace under God. Like this is God's end game, is
- 53:49peace on earth, right? Yeah, through his Kingdom being
- 53:51established. So so the interesting so Islam,
- 53:54but. It has to be the ordered the the
- 53:55the right order. If you can't have peace in the
- 53:57chaos or the disorder, that's the reality.
- 53:59So I want you to give you a perception and perspective of
- 54:02run of Mandani. Mandani, Donald Trump just makes
- 54:06fun of them and Mamani worldview.
- 54:09So Islam and Muslims perceive the world.
- 54:11It's either every single land, every single nation, every
- 54:14single civilization, every single group of you.
- 54:16It's either Dar El Harb, which means the House of war, or Dar
- 54:19es Salaam, which is House of peace.
- 54:21Right now, Egypt is Dar El Salaam.
- 54:23It's the House of peace. And the way a nation, a country,
- 54:26a people become a House of peace.
- 54:29It's when the majority of the country is Muslim.
- 54:31Yeah, it's when every single institution and cultural power
- 54:36is infiltrated and conquered and controlled by Islam.
- 54:40It's also the third thing. It's when Sharia law is
- 54:43implemented one way or another. So that is that, that when the
- 54:48three things happen #1A country becomes majority Muslim #2A
- 54:53country, the country's institutions are conquered and
- 54:56infiltrated by Islam #3 Sharia law is implemented one way or
- 55:01another. Until those three things happen.
- 55:04That space is a House of war. So at the moment, America and
- 55:08New York, our House of war. In fact, now New York is
- 55:11conquered. It's conquered.
- 55:13And here we use it because they have.
- 55:14An Islamic mayor now, in their view, yeah.
- 55:17This is your argument, Yeah. Where it's what the proof is in
- 55:21the pudding. Like there is no like you've got
- 55:24Sadiq Khan, you need to get friends.
- 55:26So guess, guess what is the most common baby name right now in
- 55:28London? It's not Jacob Cheston.
- 55:31It's not it's not Peter Pan, it's not Searus Lewis, it's not
- 55:35Winston Churchill. The most common baby name in
- 55:37London is Muhammad. Well, there, that's the back to
- 55:40the Christian disease of abortion.
- 55:43We are killing our babies. Islam is growing, yes, by the
- 55:46sword historically, but also by by population.
- 55:49They're having more children now, I think in our faith.
- 55:53And one of the reasons I became Catholic was learning more about
- 55:56the history of the Church and everything else and
- 55:59understanding, you know what, the Apostolic succession with
- 56:01Jesus and also the teachings on this, on marriage, on sexuality.
- 56:06And it's also good and true and beautiful and free.
- 56:09It goes back 2000 years. And part of it is openness to
- 56:13life and it being open to God's children.
- 56:15I mean, it's the command in Genesis, you know, be fruitful
- 56:17and multiply. But somehow along the way in the
- 56:19West, we got so lost in that because of the sexual revolution
- 56:23and contraception. And now we see the child as a
- 56:25burden, as a threat, as inconvenient.
- 56:27Reject the child, which is antithetical to the teachings of
- 56:31our faith. Yeah, which is very demonic, by
- 56:33the way. Like you're saying, you're
- 56:34talking a lot about life. And I'm like, yeah, you can see
- 56:36in Scripture. So clearly Jesus came for you to
- 56:38have life and life to the full. The enemy came to steal, kill
- 56:41and destroy. So if you look at the fruit of
- 56:43Islam, like the fruit is stealing, killing, destroying.
- 56:47The fruit of Christianity should be ideologically at the heart.
- 56:51It's life pro-life is a fundamental core theme in
- 56:55Christianity because we believe in life, because our book
- 56:57teaches it, because Jesus lived it.
- 56:59There are so many examples of that.
- 57:01And so I think it's very interesting politically that
- 57:04you'd have to suppress the truth that comes from Christianity.
- 57:07You'd have to suppress what? Christian say because when you
- 57:10let the truth out, the truth speaks for itself.
- 57:13You don't have to put it on a pedestal.
- 57:14You don't have to do much to fluff it up.
- 57:16The truth is the truth and. Don't need to censor it,
- 57:18suppress it. Which?
- 57:19Is why the Muslims and governmentally they're going to
- 57:22try to censor what Christians say, which is through things
- 57:25like Islamophobia laws or just blasphemy laws or whatever it
- 57:28looks like you have to censor the truth because the truth sets
- 57:32you free and they don't believe in freedom.
- 57:34I don't know if I've said this on the show before.
- 57:36We've talked about Christian unity on the show before, and I
- 57:38think we were discussing it actually too, with with
- 57:40Millicent and Martin. But the, you know, when the
- 57:43Reformation happened, right, when Martin Luther and you know,
- 57:48John Calvin, ultimately they wanted reform in the Catholic
- 57:51Church, which by the way, we should always be reforming.
- 57:53Yeah, we should. We're sinners, right?
- 57:55The Pope is a Sinner and he would be the first to say, he
- 57:57says, pray for me, right, Pray for me.
- 57:59So we're all sinners. We're all falling short of the,
- 58:01the grace of God. We all need, you know, grace.
- 58:04But the, the, the promise of the Lord is the gates of hell will
- 58:07not prevail. And that is a promise given to
- 58:09the church. And so when the church
- 58:11splintered, this is my view anyways, when the church
- 58:13splintered and it's other people's views, not just mine,
- 58:14but when the church splintered in the Reformation instead,
- 58:17instead of Martin Luther staying within the church and making it
- 58:19better, instead of John Calvin staying within the Church of
- 58:21mating bed. They're like split off and
- 58:23reject the authority that that Christ had established over 1500
- 58:26years. I do think that postmodern
- 58:29thought that entered in and good Christians believing the lies
- 58:31you talked about some of the lies earlier contraception
- 58:34entering in like the Anglican bishops fell to the lies of
- 58:36contraception in 19/20/1919. I believe in the Lambeth
- 58:41Convention, when the left and right, there was no more top
- 58:44authority for the church. We wouldn't have a central
- 58:47location of some authority. It's like everybody on the
- 58:49Bible, you decide, you decide, you decide.
- 58:50And then people started teaching heresy, heresy, heresy, heresy,
- 58:52heresy, and now Christianity can't hold it down.
- 58:56And so my prayers, we all become one again.
- 58:58Because if we want to combat evil ideologies and build a
- 59:00civilization of love, we can't be splintered into 50 different
- 59:03denominations. We we definitely need a sense of
- 59:06unity because whereas unity, God commands a blessing.
- 59:10And the reality is like as a Protestant and my perception of
- 59:13the war, it's not Catholic versus Protestant.
- 59:17It's not charismatic versus Calvinist.
- 59:19Yeah, it's not, it's not Baptist versus versus Pentecostal.
- 59:24And it's not the, you know, the it's not evangelical versus
- 59:29Catholic. The war at the moment is between
- 59:31liberal and Christian. We need to reject and remove
- 59:35liberalism out of the Christian Church.
- 59:37Yeah. The question is, are you liberal
- 59:39or are you a Christian? Are you biblical or are you
- 59:43cultural? And by liberal I would say do
- 59:45you even mean leftist? Because I think even like a
- 59:47liberal of 30 years ago has so much more in common and would
- 59:50you could be a Christian liberal in terms of certain foundational
- 59:54precepts, but today's leftism I think has become even more
- 59:58devolved from. From liberal we have two enemies
- 1:00:00within Christendom. Within the church we have
- 1:00:02theological liberalism. But how can we fight effectively
- 1:00:06if we're so disunified? I think that's my fear.
- 1:00:08It's like we, we have these, these global fights, right?
- 1:00:11And, and spiritual fights, I'm calling them spiritual fights.
- 1:00:14And again, we are true. We are united in baptism.
- 1:00:16You, us together as Christians, you are Christians.
- 1:00:18I'm a Christian. We're united in baptism.
- 1:00:20I believe we're united in the creed.
- 1:00:22So there are Christian denominations that I think are
- 1:00:25united under God's true church and we're in baptism that does
- 1:00:29unite us. But I think more unity on these
- 1:00:31moral teachings would provide illumination that would help
- 1:00:34with evangelism. And that's why I do really
- 1:00:37believe, whether you're a Catholic or a Protestant,
- 1:00:39whatever you are, the war at the moment is versus liberal.
- 1:00:43The most important thing for all of us to say, hey, the Bible is
- 1:00:46true. The word of God is real.
- 1:00:48We do believe in marriage. We do believe that life is
- 1:00:51sacred. We do believe in Adam and Eve,
- 1:00:53not Adam and Steve. We do believe in male and
- 1:00:54female, not the older they them or the 52 genders.
- 1:00:57We do believe that babies are sacred.
- 1:00:59We do believe that life is sacred because going back to the
- 1:01:03beginning of your podcast, the unity between Islam and leftism
- 1:01:07is that they're both death cult. Yeah, one of them killed the
- 1:01:11infidel, the other one killed the babies and children.
- 1:01:14And that's why they are a perfect worldview.
- 1:01:17It's the same spirit of the age. And that's why you have the gay
- 1:01:21jihadist who killed Charlie, and you have the gay.
- 1:01:24Children and Annunciation. And then you have the Muslim
- 1:01:28jihadist who killed Christian and I really think the church
- 1:01:32needs we need to unite on primary doctrine and make sure
- 1:01:36we can have the fight within the house.
- 1:01:38There's no problem I. Just want us to figure it out
- 1:01:39out and get together more, you know?
- 1:01:41Which? I think is happening, by the
- 1:01:43way. Yeah, it is happening,
- 1:01:44definitely. But I agree, we're doing this
- 1:01:46too. Like, I mean, there's probably a
- 1:01:48time where Catholics and Protestants just didn't want to
- 1:01:50have conversations together, like God forbid.
- 1:01:52But we're at a point now where like Andrew's saying is like, we
- 1:01:55have to unite on primary issues. We have to unite on orthodoxy.
- 1:01:59Let's actually start having these conversations again and
- 1:02:01doing it in good spirit. I don't see you as my enemy.
- 1:02:03I see you as my sister. And my sister.
- 1:02:05Exactly. And so the more that you try to
- 1:02:07demonize people that have different beliefs about
- 1:02:10secondary issues, you're not going to tell me I'm not going
- 1:02:13to heaven because I believe that I can lift my hands and worship
- 1:02:16as one example like. But The thing is, the Catholic
- 1:02:18faith doesn't teach that. Yeah.
- 1:02:20So that's the beauty of it. Like, because a Catholic, it's
- 1:02:22not like, well, we have to put the secondary.
- 1:02:23This is a secondary issue. As a Catholic, I'm going to put
- 1:02:25it aside so I can work with you. No, I mean on primary issues,
- 1:02:28because I understand you're one in baptism, one in foundational
- 1:02:31truths. I know that you're, you're,
- 1:02:33you're, you know, when I was an evangelical, I, I considered
- 1:02:36myself on the front door or I was even in the living.
- 1:02:39I was in the living room, right? As a Catholic, I feel like I'm
- 1:02:41all the way into the hearth, right?
- 1:02:43So it's, it's a matter of we're in the same, I believe house,
- 1:02:45but it's a matter of getting closer and closer to, to the
- 1:02:48fire of, of our, of the love of our Lord, the Sacred Heart and
- 1:02:51the Eucharist. So I mean, I know you guys have,
- 1:02:54we have to, we only have like 15 more minutes.
- 1:02:56I'm like, this conversation should be like 3 hours.
- 1:02:58I know, I know we've got it. We've got to lose the passport
- 1:03:02again and save her for a long time.
- 1:03:04Because even just to sit and talk about the faith, right?
- 1:03:07I think would be so because I would love to hear your your
- 1:03:09thoughts on it and just go back. And forth, as a Middle Eastern
- 1:03:12Christian, as we were genocided by Islam, there's no difference
- 1:03:15between evangelical, Orthodox and Catholic.
- 1:03:17It's very, very important. That's a great point.
- 1:03:20When you are being. They're bigger battles.
- 1:03:23Wow, you need. To understand Islam has
- 1:03:25destroyed the Church of Jerusalem.
- 1:03:27One of the biggest ancient Orthodox Church of Islam has
- 1:03:29destroyed the Church of Antioch. Islam has destroyed the Church
- 1:03:32of Consternable. Constantable, the biggest
- 1:03:35ancient church in the history of the church was destroyed by
- 1:03:39Islam. Christians were genocided.
- 1:03:41Right now Turkey went from 90% Christian to 0.1% Christian.
- 1:03:46Muslims do not see Catholic and Protestant.
- 1:03:49Sometimes you have to see yourself through the lens of the
- 1:03:51enemy. Yeah, some.
- 1:03:53Well, if. You're a Nigerian.
- 1:03:54I mean, they're killing like I think it's both Catholics and
- 1:03:58and evangelicals. They're all being killed by the
- 1:04:01same similar militants. For their for their.
- 1:04:03Faith because their problem with us is our primary doctrine.
- 1:04:06The fact that. We.
- 1:04:07Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the problem.
- 1:04:09Exactly. Yeah.
- 1:04:11Light from light. Yeah, thank God.
- 1:04:12Very God like the whole. I want to ask you about Jews,
- 1:04:16though, because you've said something.
- 1:04:18Yeah, the. Because I, I think this is
- 1:04:20something I know really, and we need to do more podcasting on
- 1:04:23this. So actually I've been trying to
- 1:04:24source more guests to have more like very in depth conversation
- 1:04:27because there is, I think a lot of misunderstandings with
- 1:04:30dispensationalism and what is Zionism and what is it?
- 1:04:33What is the correct Christian posture towards Jewish people?
- 1:04:37Obviously it's one of respect and love and, and, and deep
- 1:04:40charity. And even if you know, affection,
- 1:04:42Jesus was a Jew, Mother Mary was a Jew.
- 1:04:44Like this is the root of our faith, right?
- 1:04:48But I want to ask you about Israel because I know you have
- 1:04:50thoughts on this. And you know, the reality is,
- 1:04:52and I, I said this on acts a couple times actually, that
- 1:04:56Israel is a Jewish majority country, the only one in the
- 1:05:00world. It was created basically because
- 1:05:03Europe said there's no place for to put these Jews and they're
- 1:05:06being massacred left and right by the millions.
- 1:05:08So let's put them back in their ancestral homeland and give them
- 1:05:11a state so that they can just be OK and take care of themselves.
- 1:05:13Basically. In a way, it's.
- 1:05:14Kind of common sense. Well, you could say it's common
- 1:05:17sense. It's also you could even argue
- 1:05:18well with that, even anti-Semitic to boot them out
- 1:05:20and say you have to go because some Jews are like, I love being
- 1:05:23in, you know, I love the holy line, but I want to be in
- 1:05:25America. You know, it's not like every
- 1:05:27Jew wants to go live in Israel. It's a tough place to live for a
- 1:05:30lot of people. I wouldn't want to live.
- 1:05:32Rounded by Muslim majority countries.
- 1:05:34I think there are 40 plus Muslim majority countries in the world,
- 1:05:38maybe 44. I need to get that #51 Jewish
- 1:05:42majority country. Yeah, and Assad of New Jersey.
- 1:05:45So this is very important, the war between Israel and
- 1:05:47Palestine. Again, you cannot view it as a
- 1:05:49political, political, secular, geopolitics and a bunch of land.
- 1:05:53It's a spiritual, philosophical, moral and theological war.
- 1:05:58You have to see this war through the lens of Islam.
- 1:06:02So Islam has taken over all of the Middle East.
- 1:06:04Egypt used to be Christian as Muslim.
- 1:06:06Libya used to be Christian as Muslim.
- 1:06:07Algeria used to be Christian as Muslim.
- 1:06:08Jerusalem used to be Christian that became Muslim.
- 1:06:10Then the Jews took it back. Turkey used to be Christian, now
- 1:06:13Muslim. Jordan used to be Christian now
- 1:06:14as Muslim. Iraq used to be Christian
- 1:06:17Muslim. The whole ancient civilization
- 1:06:20of the first church was destroyed by Islam.
- 1:06:25So you have to understand like Christians were genocided.
- 1:06:29The problem is the only nation that was taken back from the
- 1:06:33Muslims, that's why they're manifesting demonically.
- 1:06:36That's why 33 Palestine and they're going crazy.
- 1:06:38I'm like, dude, you have the whole Middle East.
- 1:06:41Like why is it a little tiny piece of land?
- 1:06:43It's the size of New Jersey. It's so small.
- 1:06:46Why are you fighting for this land?
- 1:06:47You got Gaza, you got West Bank, you got Egypt, you got Libya,
- 1:06:51you got Jordan, you got Algeria, you got Iraq.
- 1:06:53You got like, you got the whole world.
- 1:06:55Why is that piece of land? Because this is the first time
- 1:06:58in the history of Islam where they took over a nation for
- 1:07:03hundreds of years and it got taken away back from them.
- 1:07:06Well, what's so for them? It's Muslims.
- 1:07:08Can practice their Muslim faith in Israel.
- 1:07:10Yeah. It's not like Christianity or
- 1:07:12Islam are illegal in Israel. You can actually go to Muslim
- 1:07:14holy sites in Israel that are just actually set aside for
- 1:07:17Muslims. So I think that's also the the
- 1:07:19part that is so maybe shocking when people really consider it
- 1:07:24that you can practice that faith freely, Islam, Islam freely in
- 1:07:29Israel. You can practice Christianity in
- 1:07:31Israel. I know Christians who live in
- 1:07:32Israel and are practicing their faith freely, including
- 1:07:35evangelizing, and they can do that.
- 1:07:38But if you go to Egypt like you were just describing, you can't
- 1:07:41do many other Muslims, not all Muslim nations, but many other
- 1:07:44Muslim nations. You're not going to have the
- 1:07:45same experience. Actually, all Muslim nations.
- 1:07:47In your view of all Muslim. Nations.
- 1:07:49You can't. All Muslim nations, no matter
- 1:07:51how secular they are, have blasphemy laws and apostles.
- 1:07:55Well. Actually, I know you're right.
- 1:07:57You know why I was, I was in Morocco.
- 1:07:58I mean, I know you're right from at least one other country's
- 1:08:00experience. I went to Morocco on a missions
- 1:08:02trip, but we were not allowed to be on a missions trip.
- 1:08:05We had to just, we weren't physically allowed to speak and
- 1:08:07talk the the name of Jesus. And I remember thinking, OK, of
- 1:08:10course I'll do whatever the tour.
- 1:08:11You know the tour guide, he's a tour guide.
- 1:08:12I was like building houses, rebuilding houses that have been
- 1:08:15broken down after earthquakes that were afflicting a lot of
- 1:08:18the Muslim population. But they were there kind of on a
- 1:08:20stealth mission to bring the Gospel, right?
- 1:08:23And we weren't allowed to send emails with the name of Jesus in
- 1:08:25them because we could be arrested for violating the law.
- 1:08:28And. This is a tourist friendly
- 1:08:30country. Palestine free, Free Palestine.
- 1:08:32Have you ever heard of any Muslim nation in the world
- 1:08:35that's free? What about Dubai, would you say?
- 1:08:37It's it's pseudo sahilism. If you eat, you cannot eat on
- 1:08:42the street during Ramadan. I checked it myself.
- 1:08:45I have a friend who planted a church in Dubai.
- 1:08:47They have to use a secular building, they have to rent it,
- 1:08:50and they can't really tell the government they're running
- 1:08:51church. And not just that, if any Arab
- 1:08:54Muslim steps into your church, you have to shut down the whole
- 1:08:57service. So the only people who are
- 1:08:59allowed to go to church in Dubai, they have to be
- 1:09:02Christians, which is like 1%. Are you allowed to convert in
- 1:09:04Dubai? No.
- 1:09:06No. And Dubai, by the way, is the
- 1:09:08most secular. It's the most liberal of them
- 1:09:11all. Yeah, liberal.
- 1:09:12And I know in Saudi Arabia, like I have a friend who is who I
- 1:09:15have a friend. Well, in Saudi Arabia, if you're
- 1:09:17part of particular parts and you're like a, if you're doing
- 1:09:20sort of contract work for a major company and you come, you
- 1:09:21can have a Christian School, you can have a Christian Church on
- 1:09:24certain parts of the land where you don't, there's no hijabs,
- 1:09:26there's no burkas. People can like, it's like a
- 1:09:29mini Western little plot of like a development because it's run
- 1:09:33by a major, you know, global company.
- 1:09:34Bible cannot go outside of. But it has some within the
- 1:09:38region, right? It's not like all of Saudi
- 1:09:39Arabia's like this, I told you. But I think in the West, we
- 1:09:41don't understand these distinctions in the US
- 1:09:43especially. And I think because many of us
- 1:09:46can travel as a tourist to Morocco and it's an amazing
- 1:09:48place to explore, right? It's beautiful.
- 1:09:50It's amazing. You can go as a tourist to
- 1:09:52obviously Dubai. A lot of people do, you know,
- 1:09:54Instagram influencers are having the time of their life in Dubai.
- 1:09:56They're partying. So it looks very like Western
- 1:09:58secularized. And there's a lot of like even
- 1:10:01Christian excesses as we're talking about happening in
- 1:10:03Dubai. So these distinctions get lost.
- 1:10:05I have friends that live there. You cannot convert.
- 1:10:08This is very, very important. This is not a conspiracy.
- 1:10:11Dubai has blasphemy laws and apostasy laws.
- 1:10:14This is not a conspiracy. Again, do not be deceived.
- 1:10:17That's why I said to you, there is no difference between Muslim
- 1:10:20and radical Muslim. Islam is radical.
- 1:10:22It doesn't matter. So even if Muslims don't don't
- 1:10:25kill you, they will silently sit while you're getting killed.
- 1:10:30And you saw that during Hamas, you see, saw that during October
- 1:10:347th. How many Muslims do you know
- 1:10:36that would condemn October 7th? I, I'm trying to think, I mean,
- 1:10:39I think there are some Muslims, if I ask them directly that I am
- 1:10:43acquainted with, who would say, yeah, it was horrible what
- 1:10:45happened to the Jewish people, you know, and, and, and there
- 1:10:48were not just Jews that were killed on October 7th, by the
- 1:10:49way, but there are mostly Jews. How many Muslims do you know
- 1:10:52that would condemn Hamas? Yeah, I mean, I I think about
- 1:10:55Bill Assaili, right, as an example, and he's very
- 1:10:58conservative. He's a Muslim.
- 1:10:59He was raised Muslim and he is a conservative Republican here in
- 1:11:04California. He was on the show recently,
- 1:11:06very good man. And he says, I'm like, you know,
- 1:11:08basically you and I are Christian and Muslim in terms of
- 1:11:11our social policy is very similar.
- 1:11:13So you do see that? And statistically is that it's
- 1:11:16according to people I came across and according to the
- 1:11:20stats, it's like in London, it's like 8 to 9 out of 10 Muslims
- 1:11:25support Hamas. So this is where it gets
- 1:11:27interesting, right? You're.
- 1:11:27Saying we need the stats, Yeah. So I'm sure.
- 1:11:29There's our number. You're saying.
- 1:11:31You're saying in in. London to 10/8 Egypt is 10 out
- 1:11:35of 10. So 8 out of 10 Muslims in Egypt
- 1:11:38would say, or excuse me, in London say they support Hamas.
- 1:11:42Yeah, because it's resistance. Yeah, like Hamas is bringing the
- 1:11:45will of Allah. Like you can't attack a Muslim
- 1:11:48for being a Muslim. Like, it's, it's ridiculous.
- 1:11:50Oh my gosh. I'm like that's why.
- 1:11:51So what you're saying is, yes, of course there are some Muslims
- 1:11:54like Bill Asaili as an example, who understand who are saying,
- 1:11:57yes, I, I agree with your social values.
- 1:12:00I believe in freedom of religion, but that's like a
- 1:12:03minority within Islam. That's like that will be 0.1 out
- 1:12:08of 10. It wouldn't even.
- 1:12:10And that's the reason you have watched across America the
- 1:12:14Palestinian protest? Yeah, they were all Muslim
- 1:12:16people. Well, they're and some and some
- 1:12:19and some feminist, you know, liberals, ladies who show up and
- 1:12:23think that they're fighting for freedom and, and the, the guy,
- 1:12:26you know, the, the, the freedom of the guy next door.
- 1:12:28And they have no clue what they're actually advocating for.
- 1:12:31But here's another distinction is that I think these
- 1:12:34distinctions are still key, right?
- 1:12:36There are children in Gaza that have been horrifically killed,
- 1:12:40right, by air strikes from Israelis.
- 1:12:42But then also there have been Hamas, you know, missiles that
- 1:12:45have killed their own people. But there have been children.
- 1:12:47And the amount of those children dying, we don't know the exact
- 1:12:50numbers. There's the Hamas, you know,
- 1:12:53Bureau that gives their numbers. We know children have been
- 1:12:56killed. And it's devastating, right?
- 1:12:58War is hell. It's horrible.
- 1:12:59I don't want a single child to die.
- 1:13:01They deserve to have protection just as much as any anyone else.
- 1:13:04And so I think the, again, the well-intentioned American
- 1:13:06wanting to March for Palestine, free Palestine, is thinking of
- 1:13:09those children, which is good to think of those children.
- 1:13:12We should. We should advocate.
- 1:13:13For those children. Of.
- 1:13:14Course. Yeah, that's that's very
- 1:13:16horrific. And, and, and the state of
- 1:13:18Israel isn't perfect. It has, and I this idea that
- 1:13:22Israel can do no wrong is obviously not true.
- 1:13:24And I think most Jews I would talk to say, of course, it's a
- 1:13:26country. It's not some like special
- 1:13:28church that can, you know, is perfect or something.
- 1:13:30It is a it is a secular country that can do things in, you know,
- 1:13:34badly can, can, can commit crimes, but that doesn't.
- 1:13:37Mean. Same as America.
- 1:13:40But that doesn't mean that Hamas is morally superior or at the
- 1:13:43level of Israel. And I think that's where the
- 1:13:45debate is right. I think even Christians are
- 1:13:48getting confused about all of this.
- 1:13:49Like there's been a few people making this distinction, but
- 1:13:52it's like there is there is a difference between when we talk
- 1:13:55culturally, politically, there is a difference between the
- 1:13:58state of Israel as a people group and the Israeli
- 1:14:01government. So when?
- 1:14:03I really nation. Yeah, so if I have if I have a
- 1:14:05disagreement with the way the Israeli government are doing
- 1:14:09something like to label me as anti-Semitic, obviously that
- 1:14:12would be stupid because you. Criticize Bibi Netanyahu?
- 1:14:15Exactly. It's the same way you could
- 1:14:16criticize Joe Biden. Or Donald Trump.
- 1:14:18So we should just shut down that argument straight away.
- 1:14:21It's like you should be able to criticize.
- 1:14:22And not be called anti-Semitic for criticizing Bibi.
- 1:14:25Exactly, but at the same time you also.
- 1:14:27Do that criticize Bibi Netanyahu?
- 1:14:28For sure, yeah. But you're also seeing, and I
- 1:14:30would even say this happens from like the conservative side, from
- 1:14:33the right. You are seeing a sense of
- 1:14:35identity politics come into play when they will kind of brand all
- 1:14:39Jews as one thing and having one idea and one response because
- 1:14:44they're Jews. It's like all the Jews.
- 1:14:45And I'm like, no, if I were to come and say the American.
- 1:14:48Jews. Islam is not diverse.
- 1:14:51There's no diversity within. Because you're attacking the
- 1:14:53ideology, not the people. But when you come to the Israeli
- 1:14:56people, they are so diverse. There are Orthodox Jews, there
- 1:14:59are Jews that don't care about their religion, they're just
- 1:15:02Jew. Because they, well, it's an
- 1:15:03ethno. I mean, it's also an ethnicity.
- 1:15:05And I think that's, I think that's also part of the lens to
- 1:15:08the confusion too, is like, you can be Jewish ethnically and you
- 1:15:11can be Jewish religiously. And then there's the overlap of
- 1:15:13the two. And when we when, when, you
- 1:15:15know, we basically created the state of Israel as the modern
- 1:15:17state of Israel, There is this overlap of the two, but you can
- 1:15:20be secular within the state of Israel.
- 1:15:22So I mean, we got to do more shows on this because it's been
- 1:15:25bubbling up more and more in media and politics.
- 1:15:28And I think it does matter. And it's obviously over
- 1:15:30intersects with what? How Christians should be showing
- 1:15:34up right now, how they should, How we can spread truth, both
- 1:15:38truth and love. And it all has consequences.
- 1:15:42So you, you guys are awesome. We could go for hours, you know,
- 1:15:47you also have podcast, a podcast.
