LISTEN NOW! Greg, John, and Pat discuss what is happening today on the global scene as they discuss Israel and Russia regarding recent events. They continue to encourage us to pray for Israel as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to meet with President Obama. They remind us of the stakes at hand and that these are not just some ordinary meetings but rather a meeting with the most powerful man in the free world and Israel. They remind us that whoever blesses Israel will be blessed. They continue to discuss recent comments President Obama made in a recent interview with Jeffrey Goldberg from the “Bloomberg View”. President Obama was quoted as saying, just days ahead of his meeting with P.M. Netanyahu that “President Barack Obama will tell him that his country could face a bleak future — one of international isolation and demographic disaster — if he refuses to endorse a U.S.-drafted framework agreement for peace with the Palestinians.” At the same time Russian President, Vladamir Putin, has come down into the Ukraine and has taken over the Crimea Peninsula. One commentator said that President Obama’s foreign policy is like a fantasy. Putin taking over Ukraine is like Canada trying to come into the United States because someone in the U.S. speaks French. These are serious days in which we are living in and they continue to encourage us to pray as they continue to discuss the unfolding of steps that have happened on the global scene; steps namely involving Russia exerting her agenda and authority. Pray for those in authority and for America as things unfold all the while America’s military is being downgraded, Syria was handed over to Russia, and Iran’s nuclear intentions are being ignored and Israel’s race is being threatened with extinction. All the while Greg shares the about the patriotism expressed by an Israeli defense solder who was an amputee. The soldier said regarding his service in the Israeli military; “It’s our job to protect Israel; there job is to give us the reason” speaking of their loved ones. Patriotism like this is to be respected and coveted. Anti- Semitism is on the rise we must not forget as Christians to stand with the Jews because as goes Israel so goes the church.
