Welcome. We're glad to have you here.
Shoram, I'm going to do it right.
Hadyan, yes.
See, we've been saying for years, Shoram Hadyan, because we've anglicized his name,
but he told my wife and me at dinner the other night that, actually, I just picked up on it,
because we had him over with a gentleman who was my...
It sounds really weird. He was a chauffeur for me for something that I was doing,
and I needed a ride, I guess.
And I normally drive, but they didn't let me drive this time.
But this guy who was driving, he and his family, escaped Iran in 1986.
So they lived through not only the regime change in 1979,
and there's probably only three other people in the room who remembers that happening,
but I remember that, but they lived through it.
They were jailed. Their lives were at stake.
And similar to Shoram and his family, Shoram and his family left a little bit earlier,
and he'll tell you maybe about that, or we'll ask him about that later.
But my driver turned out that his family had to escape for their lives
before they probably would have been executed as well.
And so we thought, wow, wouldn't it be really cool if when Shoram was in town this time,
I could get him together with my driver and let them meet.
So we did that the other night, and that's when Shoram introduced himself
to Bijan, and he pronounced himself Shoram Hadi, and I thought,
okay, we've been messing this up for a long time.
So tonight is the official declaration of we're fixing the name.
So you're going to get to hear from Shoram.
There's going to be a lot of good information.
He'll do his presentation.
We'll take a 10-minute break, like we always do.
We'll come back for some Q&A, and we will do a heart stop.
No matter where we're at, we're going to do a heart stop at 9.15.
We'll be done.
We'll close in prayer during the closing prayer.
Shoram will go back out at the table, and you can ask more questions.
You can dialogue with him out there.
I just want you to know that this is not going to be one of those nights
where we're going to say, oh, let's just keep on going.
It's only Friday night.
We're not going to do that to you, okay?
So it gives you an idea, and I just saw three people say, thank you.
Okay. So with that, let's open up in prayer,
and we will get started with the evening.
Father, we come to you tonight in Jesus' name, and we thank you so much
for the saving grace and lordship of Jesus Christ.
Father, we thank you that no matter what is going on in the world, you are still in charge.
You are allowing certain things to happen in this world as you always have
until the full number of those who are lost and are meant to be found are found.
And then we know, lord, when that last one who is needed to be found is found,
you really will show up and show the world who's in charge.
We lift our nation before you, where there's a lot of things going on in our country
that deserve more of your judgment than the mercy and grace you're showing.
And we are thankful that this weekend there is a planned intentional rededication of our nation
to being one nation under God, and that it is coming from our president, from his cabinet,
from religious leaders around the country. And so we're just declaring here tonight that
what Sharama is going to talk about is for us here in Minnesota an official kickoff to a rededication
weekend. So we sit before you or stand before you tonight and say, Father God, Lord Jesus,
and Holy Spirit, we fully dedicate our lives, our fortune, and our sacred honor to you
so that you would get the honor and glory, and that we can be your conduits of accomplishing
your divine desire here on earth. Would you please speak through our brother Sharama?
Let his thoughts be your thoughts, his perspective your perspective, his words your words
help him to be an effective, clear conduit of the message that you want us to hear.
And Lord, we know that if there's any lack of clarity, you can help us clean that up with
discussion and question and answer later. But in the meantime, we thank you that you are
present in this room, that you were here before we arrived. We didn't have to invite you,
you're inviting us into your presence, and we acknowledge that.
And so we give you our thanks and our worship, and we give you our hearts, our minds, and our ears
to hear from our brother in Jesus' name. Amen. Ladies and gentlemen, our brother and friend,
Mr. Sharama Hadian. Thank you, sir.
All right. Good evening. It's a blessing and honor to be with all of you tonight.
The topic, as Dale mentioned, obviously, you know, when we set up tonight,
you sometimes you wonder if things are going to still be timely or not. But boy,
they continue to be timely. And that's our heart in our ministry. My heart is to always be praying
and pursuing the Lord and asking for his message, his timing. And it's amazing that when he gives
us a message that it's always timely when it's his message. A couple of housekeeping items
for you tonight. As Pastor Dale mentioned, we will do some Q&A at the end. So if you do have
questions, if you do me a favor and just hold them to the end so that we can kind of get through
the presentation, the message, the information. Also, if you want to know more about the
ministry that we have, which is called Truth and Love, we are commanded to speak the Truth
and Love. A few things you can do. One, you can come to the back table and there's an email sign up,
so you can sign up for our email newsletters that we send out about once every six weeks or so.
Also, get a business card and connect to our ministry. The information is there. I'll be
talking about some documents that we have on our website. We have a whole bunch of
DVD materials, booklets that we have that we try to keep up on the information.
Also, if you choose to support our ministry, I believe at the end we're going to do an offering.
That is what helps us to travel, to speak, to continue to put content out there,
both in person and online to help equip the body of Christ with all of these issues.
Here's the thing that I think all of us inherently know. Very few churches and ministries
will talk about these type of things. And especially on the subject of Iran tonight,
we're going to be talking about why is there so much silence in the world, in the church,
on the subject of Islam, my background as a former Muslim. I've been here obviously
at Word of Life many, many times. Very few churches will address these topics.
So praise God for Word of Life. Praise God for Pastor Vern here and the leadership.
Ms. Deeta and others, Pastor Dale. And for those who are speaking these messages,
and I'm privileged and honored to be a part of you guys. And this is, I think, my 32nd trip to
Minnesota in the last, I think, nine years. But the Lord has burdened my heart to continue to
help do my part to equip the body here. So again, thank you ahead of time.
One quick item for the offering. Please, if you do want to support our ministry,
and if you want to write a check, please don't write it to Word of Life
and do not write it to me personally. You can just write it to Truth in Love or TIL.
Just a matter of bookkeeping because my wife does not get happy when I come home
with checks written to me. So it messes up our bookkeeping. So thank you guys ahead of time.
Well, again, we'll pass something around at the end before we do the Q&A.
One of the ways that you can make sure that you're being connected to us,
my clicker, is the fact that, there we go, is that we're on Rumble, is our main platform.
And I've said this before, I'll say it again, it's a free resource. Please use it. Please
connect with it. Jump on there when we're doing live shows. We do two live shows every week
when I'm not traveling. And then everything else is archived. I did a show Wednesday from
here. So just please utilize it, go there, click join, subscribe to our channel,
share the link, help others to get that information. It doesn't cost you anything.
And then also, from our website, if you want to sign up for our text alert,
we usually send a text alert out before our shows talking about the topic we're going to cover
that day. If you get text on your phone, it doesn't cost you anything. So we pay for it.
So please utilize that. Now tonight, obviously, I'm going to be talking about my background.
We are talking about Iran. I was born there, born into a Muslim family. My mom's side was more of
the fundamentalist side of the family. My dad was a career military officer. He served in
the Iranian army under the Shah of Iran. Those of you who've heard me before,
you've heard my testimony. So I apologize if I'm repeating it. I was born in the northern
part of Iran, right where you see the Caspian Sea. There's a city called Resht. That's where I was born.
And then we moved and lived in the capital city of Tehran before we fled Iran in December of 1978,
as my dad had seen things that were happening and saw the infiltration that we're going to talk
about tonight in Iran, which, by the way, a lot of what we're going to talk about tonight,
we're going to parallel them to how it applies to America and applies here to Minnesota.
The same forces that have worked to undermine and overthrow Iran are the same forces that are
here in America working to overthrow and undermine. So this isn't just about, oh, this message is
about some other country that doesn't really apply to us, that unfortunately seems to be the
mentality of a lot of people. No, this is very applicable because it's the same playbook.
And we have to understand that. But we fled there as things had heated up. My dad got us out,
said, hey, we need to leave. And we left on one of the last commercial flights in December,
February 1st, the coup. I call it a coup. If you go watch the PBS or CNN or even Fox,
they'll say it was a revolution. No, it was a coup. It was an overthrow. And I'm going to
show you that tonight. So we left in December of 78, government fell. And as of February of 1979,
it has been under what it is today. Iran turned into the Islamic Republic of Iran
because of the fact that it became governed under Islamic law, what we call Sharia. It became
the constitution. It is one of two theocracies in the world, full on 100% theocracies in the world
where there is absolutely no separation of church or the mosque and state. Now, before Iran was this,
and by the way, the history of Iran, you may ask, well, you know, what is the history? Well,
it was actually Persia. And Persia goes back approximately 3,200, 3,300 years. So it's very,
very old. Long, long, long before we saw Islam rear its demonic head. But before there was Persia,
and we'll come a little bit later in the presentation, we'll come back to Persia. We're
going to talk about just a little bit of Bible prophecy tonight about Persia. I hope you're
okay with that. We're going to talk about what the Bible has to say. But first we're going to look at
the history of Persia in the Bible, because there is a rich history. But before there was Persia,
you actually go further and further back before the Persians was the Elamites, Elam.
And Elam is given as an ancient name to Persia. Elam goes back over 4,500 years,
all the way back to the time of Noah. Because Noah, as you know, had three sons,
Japheth, Ham, and Shem. And when they came out of the ark, and they began to repopulate, right,
the Bible in Genesis chapter 10, if you go and do your homework, read your Bible, right,
in Genesis chapter 10, it goes through and it lists the genealogy of the sons of Noah.
And, for example, at the time that Abram was called by God from Ur to come to the land and
take the land from the Canaanites, well, the Canaanites were the descendants of Ham.
But they were really in the African continent. That was not their land. They had also taken
that land. It actually was God's land. The descendants of Shem, this is where we get the line of Abram.
So one of the sons of Shem is named Arphazod. And Arphazod is where the line of Abraham and
then subsequently Isaac and Jacob comes. The line of the Messiah. Correct? Well, Arphazod actually
had an older brother. And that older brother was named Elam. So Elam is a son of Shem. And Elam
is a brother of Arphazod, meaning that the Persian people and the Jewish people are cousins.
We are both Semitic. This is why I always tell people, I'm not an Arab. Iranians, Persians
are very unique in that we're not Arabic. We're not descendants of, they claim we're all descendants
Arabs or descendants of Ishmael. No, we are Semitic people. And you're gonna see that that's why I
believe that there is an absolute incredible symbiotic relationship between the Jewish people
and the Persian people that carries on to today and we'll get to that. Now, going fast forward
to the time that Israel becomes a nation, right? Persia plays a part in that because we know that
God raises up Persia to liberate the Israelites from Babylonian captivity during the 70-year
captivity that they were judged. This is after King Saul, King David, and then Solomon, and then
they go, the kingdom breaks up and they go into captivity. During that time, the capital of
Persia was in a place that today, Persians, called Persepolis. But at that time, it is in
modern day Iran, the southwestern part of Iran. I'll show you a map later of that. And that area
is called Elam. And you're gonna see later too that there's a prophecy about Elam
that I believe has not yet been fulfilled. But Persepolis was where the Persian Empire was
based. And this is again in that southwestern part of modern day Iran. And this is where the story
of the captivity happens, the story of Daniel, the story of Esther happens there in a city
that the Bible calls Susa. In Iran, we call it Shushan. In fact, the prophet Daniel is
buried in Shushan. So this is interconnected. And in the Bible, we're told that there were
several Persian kings, starting with King Cyrus, who was instrumental in the issuing of the decree
for the returning exiles. This is the decree that allowed them to rebuild the city walls of Jerusalem
and rebuild the temple. And you see on the screen there, fulfilling the prophecy of Jeremiah
in chapter 45. That was the call of Cyrus. He was anointed, remember? The guy called
him the anointed one. And then Ezra chapter 1 and 2 Chronicles 36 as well. Those are references
you can look up later for King Cyrus. He's probably the most famous Persian king to Iranians as well.
Then you have Darius, who confirmed Cyrus' decree, enabling the completion of the temple
in Jerusalem in the book of Ezra. Darius I. Then he fast forward to Xerxes. Now this is
what in Hebrew is the name that was given to Xerxes was Ahasuerus. This is the story of Esther.
This is the book of Esther where Mordecai, Haman's plot, and then of course under King Xerxes
was the decree, the second decree that was given to the Hebrews to defend themselves
against the first decree, which would have wiped them out. Haman's plot. Then you have
Artaxerxes I, commissioned Ezra to teach the law and authorize Nehemiah to rebuild the walls of
Jerusalem. There is the biblical references. And finally, the fifth major king that is mentioned
is Darius II. Now notice I said Darius. You guys say Darius. It's Darius. You guys say Cyrus.
It's actually Kourosh. We say Kourosh. But anyway, so those are just a little bit of the
references of how the Bible talks about the role of the Persians and the Persian Empire and
the Persian kings in liberating and ultimately protecting the Jewish people. I always joke
with people that, you know, it's always good to keep Persians around. God used the Persians,
particularly in this case, to come to the aid of the Jewish people. Now you go, well,
what happened to this Persian Empire? Well, the Persian Empire was then conquered by Islam
all the way in 651. So we have a history of Persia, right? So during this time that is on the screen,
we're talking about that that's approximately 26 to 24, 2300 years ago. As I said, the Persian
Empire was much older than that. That Persian Empire continues until the time that as Islam
now is manifesting its military might and its force, it has conquered, it has gone out of the
Arabian Peninsula and it's conquering the rest of the Middle East into Europe. And it conquers,
in 651, it conquers the Persian Empire by force. And then it begins to subjugate Persians
to Islam. So Persians were not Islamic. They were not, quote, Muslims. It was forced upon them.
In fact, the religion of Persians in the Bible is called Zoroastrianism. That's, that was the
official religion of Persia. So when we ask, when we talk about Iran, you'll see a lot of
Iranians say, well, I'm not Iranian, I'm Persian. And they're not trying to avoid the term,
they're just saying, they're just trying to say, we have a history. We have a rich history.
And as Islam came and conquered Persia, as it's done with other cultures, it tries to erase that
culture. Just like when Islam took over Iran in 1979, it began to work to destroy all of the
historic sites in Persepolis. They destroyed much of the monuments, much of the artifacts,
because it seeks to destroy anything before it. It's that evil.
So obviously, we're going to talk about here in just a little bit what has recently happened in
Iran and what has happened. But I want to take you back just a little bit further to the last
47 years. Like, how did we get to this point? How did the Iranian people get to the point
where they allowed themselves to be taken over again by Islam? From the biblical history
to the modern history, goes back to about the last 100 years, starting with
the Shah of Iran, who my dad served under. This is the gentleman here, Mohammed Reza Pallavi,
who became the Shah. The Shah now is a title. That's not his name. That's a title that means
the king. That's why my name has that in it. So my dad named me after the Shah of Iran.
And that means a king. So my name means a patient or benevolent king. And that's what the Shah is,
so it's a title. Now, his dad was Shah before him. And the last name being Pahlavi, this is in
Persian, modern Persian history, we call this the Pahlavi dynasty. So his dad came to power
in the 1920s, and then subsequently was forced out of power by an infiltration of globalists
and communists in the 1940s. So as early as the 1940s, Iran was being infiltrated by that
globalist communist ideology, which led to then his father stepping down. At 22, he becomes
the leader of Iran. By the late 1940s, there are multiple coup attempts. They try to kill him.
They try to assassinate him. He's actually shot multiple times and survived. And then there's
history has it that, oh, well, the CIA helped him to stay in power in 1953. That's not accurate
because there was a guy by the name of Mossadegh who at that time was the prime minister,
and people make it out like, oh, the people picked Mossadegh and then the Shah overthrew him
or tried to force him out. No. The way that, you see, under the form of government that Iran
was functioning, it's what we call a constitutional monarchy. It was not a true representative
government, it's a constitutional monarchy. And what that meant was that there was a
parliament, there was a prime minister, but the ultimate authority rested with the monarchy.
And so the Shah had appointed a prime minister, but that prime minister began to work with the,
not only the communist, but then with the Islamic clerics who were there because Islam, right,
had been in the region and again it conquered. The Arabs had conquered and infiltrated Iran.
And the Shah survived that. Now, some would say, well, with the help of the United States,
that may be true that there was an element at that time where the United States backed him,
so he stays in power. And in the late 50s, he is now working to try to curb this
Islamic uprising with the communists that were there. He leads a movement called the White
Revolution in 1960, which in 63 comes to full, full expression, which was that we're going to
take Iran back to its Persian history and its Persian roots. Sort of like we would say America
first, they would say Persia first. And he was trying to systematically cut off the influence
of the Islamic clerics upon Iran, which because, and you have to understand, they were a very small
percentage. Even though the majority of the people who were living inside Iran would have said,
if you asked them, are you a Muslim, they would have said yes, but they were not practicing.
As such, there was a small percentage, less than 10%, that were these fundamentalists. But they
were working with the Marxist communists. In the 50s, there was a group called the two-day
party. That was a communist party that was actually functioning in Iran. And that was
beginning to sway a lot of young people. During the same time that the Shah was leading
this revolution, they were infiltrating the universities and the academia and the media.
But the Shah led this revolution, starting by the fact that he said, we're going to take our
own oil. We're going to become energy independent. At that time, British petroleum and the global
list controlled 90% of Iran's oil. Iran only controlled 10% of their oil. He flipped that.
He said, ah, it's our oil. We're going to control it. We're going to use it for our
country. We're going to build our nation. And that's when he got a target on his back.
That was the beginning of the end, in my opinion, for him. He built a very strong
military. At that time, Iran had probably the strongest military in the Middle East.
Energy independence, incredible economy, incredible infrastructure investment by the
Shah, modernizing Iran. It became the Europe of the Middle East, not today's Europe.
And then he also began to reform and allow women to have equal rights, allow minorities to
have equal rights, religious minorities. By the way, one of the things I forgot to mention,
after World War II and the failed attempt of the Nazis and the Muslims and the Muslim
Brotherhood to wipe out the Jews, Iran gave sanctuary to many Jews who were fleeing Eastern
Europe who then went to Iran. And they found sanctuary in Iran under the Shah.
Yet, all that we have been told about him was that he was a dictator, he was a tyrant,
he was decadent. I mean, they were decadent. I mean, he was a monarch. But yet,
they don't know the full story of what was going on. This revolution led to the education
opportunities. My mom at the time decided to go become a school teacher that would have
never been allowed under the clerical rule that they were trying to impose in Iran.
And we began to see education for women. This is the Iran that I remember.
This is the type of stuff where young women were equal to men. They go to school. There was
equality, as I said, for religious minorities. Our Miss Universe pageant, we had a Miss
Universe pageant becoming nurses, doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers. But the entirety of that
time, through the late 50s, early 60s, into the early 70s, there was an underpinning there.
There was a tension there between the reforms that the Shah was leading and the fundamentalist
who were still trying to impose Islam upon the population. This is one of the pictures
that I think tells the story between that dichotomy that was there. But you have to remember,
it was only a small percentage. And the same forces that, as I said, we're going to talk
about here, were there working. Because in Iran, when they began to stir the pot,
one of the things they began to stir... and this is the irony of it. The irony of it was
is that what happened? What happened to his revolution? Iran was an ally of the United
States. My dad, his actual position in the U.S., in the Iranian military, was he was a liaison
officer with the U.S. military. So he would routinely come to the United States and they would do
joint training exercises between the Iranian military, the U.S. military. They had an
unbelievable cooperation. All of that changed when Jimmy Carter became president.
When Carter became president, the foreign policy of the United States shifted. Because during
this time of this white revolution in Iran, the clerics were very vocal. And they continued
to try to overthrow the Shah with the help of the communists. And one of these guys, that was
one of these clerics, was a guy, we'll look at him in a minute, by the name of Khomeini.
And Khomeini was doing speeches and was trying to suck in the people, the young people of Iran
with a socialist Marxist communist message, even though he was an Islamic cleric.
And instead of the Shah executing him, which he would have had a right to do because Khomeini
was committing treason, the Shah exiled him, kicked him out of the country. He went to France
until the Carter administration began to back him. So when Jimmy Carter became president,
one of the first things that happened was my dad was informed there no longer is a
liaison going on. And then my dad would go to briefings where members of the U.S. military who
had shifted, these are people that had changed under the Carter administration, were coming to
Iran and warning the Iranian military, if the people rise up against the Shah, do not resist
them. Do not do anything to fight against the people. So they were fomenting this so-called
revolution. The United States had its hand in the mess that it has created for 47 years,
really 50 years. And the irony of it was is that part of the messaging of the communist
Marxist socialists, there was another group in Iran called M.E.K. This was M.E.K. was called the
Mujahideen Hulq, which literally means the people's jihadist. And they were a Marxist Muslim group
that is still existing today. In fact, even some in the current administration are supporting them
today instead of the son of the Shah, who we'll get to. But the irony of this whole
thing was the messaging of those who were trying to overthrow Iran was that the Shah
was a puppet of the United States. The furthest could be the truth, because they bailed on him.
They betrayed him. They turned on their ally. He was an ally of Israel and he was an ally of
the United States. Iran was one of the only countries that recognized Israel in 1948 when
it became a nation. And that same red and green access that was working as working here right
now throughout the world was in Iran. Starting with that communist Marxist infiltration, but you
have to understand, with a country that claimed at that time to be 98 percent Muslim, you couldn't
have a communist revolution. So they called it an Islamic revolution. The green took over,
the red was fomenting, but it became a quote, green or Islamic revolution, the green being for
Islam. In the United States, for a long time, it's been the other way, right? It's been the red
that's been in the forefront. We're seeing more promoting socialism and communism that's becoming
cooler and younger people more are being drawn to it. So it's been this red and the green
was sort of behind the scenes until recently, where it's flipped. And we'll talk about that.
I'm going to play just a very quick video of what happened before and, well, really once
the West turned on the Shaw, once US foreign policy shifted, and they began to support
the return of this cleric. You see, I've said this before, I'll say it again.
The United States of America, we suck at regime change.
Every time we interfere and we try to pick who should be the next quote government,
we suck at it. I don't want Trump or anybody picking who's going to be next in Iran. We want
the Iranian people to pick who's going to be next in Iran. And they've already spoken
about who should be next in Iran. The world is silent about that. They're intentionally
suppressing that, which is why we're here tonight, talking about why. Why would they be silent?
Why would they deny the obvious? And why would they not talk about the massacres that have happened
in Iran? But let me just play this quick little two minute, 45 minute, two minute and 45 second
clip. So you see, what it was like when Khomeini came in, because we fled February 1st
was when the Shah left Iran to get medical care. They say he fled, but he actually was leaving
to go to the United States for medical care because he had cancer. On February the 10th,
once Khomeini flew back in, at that time the military was still 50-50. 50% were loyal to the
Shah and 50% had already defected and returning. But that 50% supported Khomeini. Khomeini comes
back in. By February 10th, he's in Iran and now they're starting to consolidate power. They immediately
kicked out the foreign press because that was the only eyes and ears in Iran was the foreign press.
They kick him out and there's a blackout. And now you'll see in this video, they began to
systematically go after anybody that was a loyalist to the Shah. Now my dad, again,
having the foresight to get to know what was coming, took early retirement and got us out.
But there were friends of his who retired as a colonel. He had friends who were generals
who would not leave, would not denounce the Shah who were then executed. So watch this little video
of what it was like and then pay attention to the fact how many of the young people
who had bought the narrative of how bad the Shah was, how bad it was in Iran,
and how they should get free this and free that and free this and free that,
which is the Socialist Marxist Communist playbook.
Watch what happens to them once Khomeini gets power. Watch this.
That's Yasser Arafat. Immediately they side with the so-called Palestinians.
Will Baha'is be granted equal civil rights and protection of Iranian law?
The Baha'is in Iran are not a religious or political organization.
So they are not recognized as a religion and therefore...
It is like if the Marxists come and say that we want it to have the same
privilege that the Jews and the Christians and the Russians they have as religious minorities.
If you don't pay attention to this, then I will go back to Islam.
This is the arrest of the tyrants who are not allowed to have the power and freedom.
So it didn't take very long for the very people that the Carter administration supported to
turn on America. And all those people today who are saying, well, what did Iran do to us?
What right do we have to go and bomb a free country are either very ignorant of history or they have an
agenda? Because from the very beginning they were chanting death to America. You have to understand,
Khomeini was coming in and in Iran, Iran are Shia Muslims. But particularly there is a sect
of Shia Islam that is called the Twelvers. And they believe that their role is to create as much
chaos into the world to hasten or usher in their Messiah who they call the Twelfth Imam. Now the
Sunni Muslims, which are the majority of the world's Muslims, they also believe that there is a
coming Islamic Messiah. But they differ in the fact that the Shias believe he was an Imam in
the 9th century and then he was taken to heaven and he is coming back again. And then they also,
of course, believe that Esau, or Jesus, the Jesus of the Koran, is coming back with him as a
prophet. So Khomeini comes in and you saw in the video there, they imposed the Hajjab. So all
these women that are part of the two-day party, the Communist Party, all these people like,
I had a cousin of mine that was one of these fools that joined MEK who were like down with the Shah. Now,
within just a matter of months, if not within one year, the Islamic Republic turns on the
Marxists and the Communists, outlaws those entities, begins to impose the Hajjab. All these women
that you saw in the clip, they're like, we didn't, this isn't what we revolted for. This
like all the leftist feminists here in America who have no idea what the heck they're doing as they do
footsies with Islam and they hug it and they kiss it and they have the wear a Hajjab day every
February 1st on our college campuses and in our high schools here in Minnesota all over the
country. They have no idea what they're doing. Just like many of those foolish people in
Iran had no idea what they were doing and what they were welcoming in. And my cousin was one
of those, as I said, that within nine months he's blacklisted by the regime. They come to arrest him
for execution. Unfortunately, his neighbor tips him off. They were upstairs in his apartment with
his pregnant wife and they tip him off and then he has to go into hiding and his father-in-law has
to pay $25,000 to smuggle him out of Iran. He's never been back to Iran since. So November 4th,
you guys remember, that was the defining moment was when they took 52 American hostages in the
U.S. Embassy. They had already surrounded the embassy since August. But in November 4th, they
stormed the embassy. They take the hostages for 444 days. And the impotent, useless Jimmy Carter
placating this evil can do nothing. This was a major, those of you who are old enough to
remember, this was a major political issue during the 1980 presidential election. And Reagan
basically said, look, I would deal with this differently because, you know, I'm paraphrasing.
I'm just going to bomb the living daylats out of Iran. So on the day, if you remember,
that Reagan was elected on election day, the Iranian signal, we're going to release the
hostages. And on inauguration day, January of 20th, 1981, as he's being sworn in, the word
comes, they're on planes to Germany, and they release the hostages. But for 47 years, they
not only destroyed Iran and destroyed, and we're working to destroy the Persian history,
but they have not only captured the Iranian people, and by the way, the majority of these
clerics that were taking over Iran aren't even Persian. Khomeini is from India. He
was an Arab who was also Indian, part Indian. And these guys were coming in. The majority of
clerics are not from Iran. They were brought in. And they've taken the people hostage for
47 years. And then they began to declare war. And how many American lives have been killed
directly or indirectly by Iran, by their proxies, Jewish lives, European lives in the last
47 years? Again, it maddens me when I see so much ignorance in our media, but it makes me
even more upset when I see so much silence in our churches, to what's going on. And for
47 years, time and time again, the Iranian people have tried to rise up and get rid of
this regime. But one of the things that happened when the so-called revolution
happened was the regime disarmed the people. So when you get disarmed, tyranny takes hold. And
there's been multiple uprisings, multiple attempts. And then, you know, every time they claim
there's an election in Iran, the world thinks, oh, look, they have free elections. No election
in Iran has been free. It's rigged because Iran is a theocracy. As I said, they have a
parliament, they have a president. Those are meaningless. It's a Supreme Guardian Council
of 12, including the Ayatollah Khomeini at that time. By the way, there were some in
Iran who believed Khomeini was the Messiah until he died in 1989. And they were like,
oops, that didn't work out, you know. So then after Khomeini comes another guy by
the name of Ali Khomeini. And Khomeini rules Iran from 1989 until February of 28, 2026, when
he was sent to meet God, the true God, an answer for all of his crimes. So every time
there was an election in Iran, there was no election, the people would go out en
mass. Then there was the green movement in 2009, where Obama didn't support the
Iranian people. Then Obama gave them $150 billion of asset relief, gave him $1.7
billion in cash in an airplane, sent it over an airplane. Can you imagine? Shows
up with $1.7 billion in cash. Then they continued to build up their proxies
in Western Europe with Hezbollah immediately in northern part of, in Lebanon, in
Syria. They support... you saw that they... listen, when he was... when they were
meeting with Yasha Arifat, there was no Hamas then. Hamas was not formed until
later after 1987. So already they were meeting with the so-called PLO, the
Palestinians. And we'll... I'll talk about that just in a little bit. But I
want to get... I want to get to what recently happened. 2022, there was
another uprising. Masa Amini, a young woman, was killed by the so-called
morality police in Iran. That led to what was called the life freedom woman
movement, or the women freedom life movement. Massive uprisings. We saw
Iranian women go in the streets and tear their hijabs off, burn them under
some of them later were arrested and executed. So this is the courage. And
this is why it makes me so upset, where I want to take these leftists and just
lovingly shake them and be like, why don't you go speak to some of these
Iranian women who have come out of this and can tell you the hijab isn't
some wonderful sign of liberation or modesty. It is a sign of oppression and
submission to Islam, where you are now a... you are second class. You are
now half the value as a woman of that of a man. June of 2025, the majority leading
up to that time, year after year after year, by the way, the economic
conditions in Iran are horrible. Drought, food shortages, gas shortages, our
currency. When I left Iran, our currency was seven to man to one U.S.
dollar. Today it is 184,000 to man to one U.S. dollar. It's not even worth
toilet paper. And so the currency sucks. The economic conditions suck. But
the people of Iran, they are willing to endure. And I'm going to talk in
just a little bit about the believers in Iran, but they were willing to
endure. But the majority of the people of Iran were saying, the only way
out of this is we need outside help. And we want you to bomb us. Think
about the mentality you got to get to where you're like, please bomb
us. Because that's the only way we're going to break free. We've
tried, we've tried, we've tried, we've tried on the streets, we've
tried to the ballot boxes. And every time we get massacred. Not to
this level. So when we got word that Israel potentially last year was
going to strike, that was a breath of fresh air. Israel starts the
Operation Rising Lion. It should have been more than 12 days. And I
gotta be honest with you, I'm ticked at Trump. I voted for the
president three times. But this was a massive betrayal at that
time. Because Israel should have been allowed to finish what
they started. Because Operation Rising Lion was in the works for
at least seven years. Seven years of operational and highly
sensitive, if you want to say espionage, by the massacred in
Iran, infiltration, where they knew. And they were dismantling
the regime. And the people of Iran, the majority were
rejoicing. By the way, back last year in June, there were
no blackouts. Because Iran didn't have that technology. Until
they were given a new lease in life. Now, whether it was Trump
or whether it was the ongoing form, what I've been told by
those who used to work in the government is that this is the
ongoing foreign policy of the United States State Department
and our deep state, that they will not allow Iran to
become free. Remember, we're talking about why is the
world silent? Why don't they want this? There are very good
reasons. So what happened is in late of last year, okay, first
of all, after the 12-day war, it shouldn't have been a 12-day
war. It should have been war until it's done. But it became
a 12-day war. And then it stopped. Well, immediately the
Chinese came in and gave Iran technology that allowed them
now to be able to block satellites, internet and blockout. So
December of this year, we started getting words where there
was going to be massive uprisings in Iran based on, quote,
economic reasons. There was going to be strikes. But very
quickly, within a matter of three or four days, those
strikes turned into, once again, anti-regime protests by
majority of young people that came out of the streets. And
very early on, now comes forward a figure that we Iranians
have known. But maybe the world didn't know. And that was the
son of the Shah. And his name also is Reza Pahlavi. And he
left Iran at 17, but he's been working on behalf of the
Iranian people for the last 47 years in exile. And he
began on social media to then direct the people, go into
the streets. At this time, shout. At this time, go on your
rooftops. Remember, they have no weapons. This is not a, this
is not an armed uprising. These are just, all they can do is
they can go into the streets and they can lift up their
voices and protest. And he was getting like 60 to 80 million
views inside and outside Iran on his social media posts.
Directly. And the people were doing it. He said, at six o'clock,
go on your rooftops or go whatever and shout. And they
would do it. Until January 8th. Now, by the way, Trump steps
in and says to the publicly on truth social, if you kill
these protesters to the regime, we are locked and loaded.
Those are direct quote. That was before this. Then the weekend
of January 8th, 19th, 10th, he comes out on truth social and
says, encourages Iranian people, go into the streets, take
over your institutions and help is on the way. Now, again,
my view from going back to 2024 and 2025 had been, I didn't
want America to get involved because I knew their track
record. I know our track record. I just wanted Israel to do
what they needed to do because Israel can articulate much
better than we can. Iran is an existential threat to
their to their survivability because of the proxies. We
know that Iran supported, funded and helped train Hamas and
their 6000 plus operatives when they committed October 7th,
2023, and the atrocities of over 1200 Jews, the worst
murder of Jews since the Holocaust, babies, women, murder,
beheaded, burned in ovens, raped. Iran was behind that.
We know that Iran is Hezbollah. We know that Iran has
worked with ISIS. We know that Iran has worked with
Islamic jihad. We know that Iran has worked with the
Sunni side on the Muslim Brotherhood side. So we knew
all this. We know that Hezbollah cells have been in
South America. We know that Iran was deeply in bed with
Venezuela and before Madura was Hugo Chavez, and then it
was Madura, Iran working with Cuba. So they're they're on
our southern hemisphere. We knew we've known for years
that Iran has worked with the the Mexican drug cartels
bringing in assets through tunnels into the United States.
We know there's hundreds of Hezbollah cells in the
United States. All of this goes back to Iran, to the regime.
But all of this could have been changed if seven presidents, six
presidents before Trump would have done something.
Okay, so Trump is the first one that says help is on the way.
So for the first time the Iranian people are heartened
so they go into the streets and then something happens on
January the 8th. There's a blackout and those of us who knew
what that meant are heart sank because this regime is
repeating the same pattern. By the way, you saw in the
video that after they had committed executions there
were some bodies. Well, in that video one of the
bodies that they had again they had it within the first
four months in 1979 when they committed their coup
within the first four months of when there was media
blackout they had secret trials. There's no trial.
There's no jury. There's no due process. You go before a
revolutionary judge, some Islamic cleric and he's gonna...
you're guilty before you even get there and you're executed.
And then the only way people would know because people
go missing, including the prime minister, Hoveyda, the
prime minister of Iran, went missing. And then his
family got his body with eight bullet holes in it.
And a bill for every bullet.
So there was all these patterns, right? So what happens
now in January of this year? There's a blackout. This
time it's the internet. It's all the social media
and it's satellites. Immediately Elon Musk comes out
and says, we're gonna provide Starlink. Too bad.
They have Chinese technology now. They block the
Starlink. So when Dale was talking about speaking of China
and their hand in it, they have a direct hand in
supporting this regime and the massacre of their own
people. And we're sitting there talking about how
we're, you know, we're good friends and whatever.
Okay. Listen, I know there's politics. This is why
it's good. I'm not in politics. Because I can't
handle this stuff. I can't handle the gamesmanship
stuff. I'm too much of a literal person.
So once they blacked out everything, there's no
information coming out. And all of a sudden we
start seeing pictures of bodies and bodies. Now the
most conservative estimate is in that weekend they
killed 45,000 people. That's the most conservative
safe estimate. I in my heart know, and people
have talked to who have gotten anything out of
Iran, say that number is probably closer to 100,000
people, because we don't yet still know. There's
still an, today, to this moment, there's still a
blackout except for the elite. And apparently
except for CNN. CNN can just go into Iran and
meet with the regime. But they can't get any
information out to how many Iranians were
killed. And it wasn't just on the streets.
It wasn't just with machine guns and snipers
and they would ruse them to go into certain
areas and then they would sort of barricade
them and just mow them down. And you have to
understand, this is a majority of young
people. One of the crazy things about Iran
that most people do not know. More than 50%
of the current population is under the age of
30. It is one if not the youngest
population in on the planet. And these
are young people that are smart,
sophisticated, talented, and they are
very tech savvy. They were very aware.
And when they were in the streets during
those first few couple of weeks before the
blackout, they were only shouting one
name that they wanted to come and help
them. And it wasn't even Trump. They were
shouting Trump's name. They were shouting
BB. BB June. Netanyahu. BB. We say BB June.
But they were chanting the name of Reza
Pahlavi. They were saying Javed Shah.
That means long live the Shah. They were
saying this is the final battle. Pahlavi
will return. They're done. They were
willing to die rather than live under
this. Young people. Now this is what I
find crazy. These young people, both
men and women, they weren't even born
when Reza Pahlavi, when the Shah was
the leader of Iran. I'm 55. I was there.
My dad, they weren't even there.
So how do they know this? They know it
because they understand their history
and they know it because they understand
their mistake. And they regret their
mistake. And they wish... And I
remember people my age and younger would
tell our parents, why didn't you
stand up? Why didn't you fight?
Why didn't you speak out? Why didn't
you believe that this could happen?
Because they thought, oh, it's a small
percentage. The clerics in Iran are just
a small percentage. The Marxists, just a
small percentage. They'll never be able
to pull this off.
Well, they probably wouldn't have been
able to pull it off without outside
help. But they pulled it off. And when
Iran went from being a constitutional
monarchy and the freest country in
the entire Middle East to the Islamic
Republic, that shifted the entire
Middle East. It wasn't just Iran. The
entire Muslim world went, moved towards
fundamentalism.
And today the Iranian people are saying
we've had enough. And it wasn't just
killing them on the streets. Then they
killed children. Then they went into
the hospitals and shot them in the
hospitals. So imagine being wounded.
You get to the hospital thinking
you're in safe haven. The regime goes
in the hospital and shoots you in
the head in the hospital. They were
killing doctors who were helping.
They were killing nurses who were
helping. They were sexually assaulting
the nurses. And this is the regime
that led up to this. And including the
death toll of this 45,000 or more
included Christians. Why? Because I've
said this before when I've been here.
Iran has the fastest growing
church numerically in the entire
world. Amen. Of the population of
92 to 93 million people, back in
1979 when it was supposedly 98%
Muslim, literally they estimated
there was one to two thousand
born-again Christians in Iran. Meaning
people like myself who were Muslim, who
then converted to Christianity, who
left Islam. I'm not talking because
there was also Armenian Christians
there, but they don't count on that
number. I'm talking about those who
actually converted. Today they
estimate that number could be as high
as five million or more. And that's
because the more this regime has
oppressed them, the more they
reject Islam, the more their hearts
open to the truth. And that's the
opportunity that God is using. But
what I was frustrated about was
we didn't hear anything from many
churches about this massacre. No big
time pastors, very few spoke on this
massacre. They were very vocal about
Israel. They were, and I don't mean a
good way, they were very vocal when
they wanted to bash Israel and claim
that Israel is committing genocide
in Gaza, but silence. And okay, okay,
they don't want to weigh in, maybe
they don't know what they're talking
about, but at the minimum we should
have at least been saying from the
pulpit, you know what, please pray
for our brothers and sisters in
Christ who are in Iran right now
suffering. Just like we should be
praying for our brothers and sisters in
Christ in Nigeria right now, in the
Sudan, in Congo, in Mozambique, in
Pakistan, in Syria. We should have been
praying for the Iranian Christians, but
why was there silence?
Now, what's the latest update? Well,
pick an hour. The attack happened,
they hit targets, they got Khomeini
and his family. I wouldn't want to be
the people that are next on the list.
That's not a job you want to have. I don't
expect a very life long, very life
long lifespan. Iran shot their missiles,
we found out, whoa, they have not
only short-term and mid-range
missiles, they have long-range
missiles, 4,000 miles, that they
can easily tip their the warheads with
nuclear material.
We found out after the negotiations
were recently happening between
Steve Whitcoff and Kushner and the
Iranians in Oman, if you guys know your
geography, that's in the golf area,
Persian golf area, we found out that
guess what? The Iranian envoys admitted
to Whitcoff why the media didn't cover
this, doesn't fit their narrative, is
that they admitted we have enough
nuclear enriched uranium to make
11 nuclear bombs. They admitted that.
Whitcoff admitted that, but the media
didn't cover that. So now, as of this
moment, we have the standoff, because
right now it's supposed to be a
ceasefire. We saw that Iran attacked
their Arab neighbors, all these Arab
Muslim countries that didn't want to
have anything to do with this, and then
we saw the closing of the Strait of
Hormuz. And what's frustrating is that,
look, we don't get our oil from the
Strait of Hormuz. It shouldn't affect
our prices. The reason it's affecting
our prices is because of the markets.
Because the price of oil is based on
speculation and not actually supply.
We don't need the supply. You know who
does? China. You know who does?
Partially Russia. You know who needs to
get that oil out of the Strait? All these
Arab nations that have gotten rich
from oil. In 1977, 78, United Arab
Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, this was
desert. It was nothing. They have
gotten rich off of OPEC and off of
oil in the last 50 years with all the
power they have. Now, I support the
president's blockade. I was actually, I
said this earlier, that I think they
should blockade. And in my opinion, I
did never support a total boots on
the ground. I don't think that's a
solution. The solution is arm the
Iranian people. But you have to cut
off the funding because right now
the majority of the forces that the
regime is using to continue to
suppress and kill their own people are
actually outside militias. They brought
a lot of militias in from Iraq, from
Syria, from Pakistan, from Afghanistan.
We have to pray that we cut off their
money. Right now this blockade is
costing Iran $500 million every day
in oil revenue. So, we got to pray
this would continue, that part of it.
But we have some fundamental problems
because we continue to see and have
them talk about negotiation.
Negotiation. We're going to
negotiate. We're going to negotiate.
There is no negotiating with this evil.
There's nobody in this regime that is
moderate. There's nobody in this
regime that doesn't have blood on their
hands. There's nobody in leadership
that is going to be quote a reformer.
None. Period. And so every time I hear
this, immediately I go in the prayer
and I pray, Lord, confound their
plans and may every deal fall on its
face. There is no peace to be had.
None. Period. And the Iranian people
who over 60 to 70 percent of them
wanted Israel to bomb them will never
accept, after having lost so many young
people in the streets, will never
accept one second of peace.
There is no peace with this regime.
And let me explain to you this.
If this regime is allowed to stay,
they're going to declare it a
victory. They don't have to beat
America. They know they can't
beat America. They just have to
survive. And if they survive, they
win. And they'll say, Allah Akbar!
Because they think Allah has given
them victory, even though Allah is a
demon. We have to understand the
Iranian people who have now said
we're willing to die rather than...
I mean, think about it. Again, to get
to that point, they will never
accept one. And if this regime
survives, you think they killed 45,000
or 60, 80,000? They'll kill two to
three million if they're allowed to
stay in power. So, we got to...
Now, we'll talk here in just a
minute about some prophecy. But
listen, the bottom line is, I don't
know the timing of how this is
going to happen. And I never... I
never thought it was going to be
easy. And I'm not a fan of, like,
we declare victory because there's
no victory yet. I get it.
Militarily, they're saying we, you
know, destroyed this or we
destroyed that. But the bottom
line is, the world remains
silent in mass. The media, they
won't support the Iranian
people. We see this throughout
Eastern Europe, Western Europe.
We see it here with the... with the
media here. We see it with the
Democrats. We see it with some
Republicans. They think we
shouldn't have anything to do
with it. America first. This is
not a war. We see it... the
messaging is wrong. This was never
a war. This was a rescue
mission. It should have been a
rescue mission, because you have
the largest massacre of a
civilian population by their
government since World War II.
And you know who wasn't silent
about it? The Iranian people
outside the country. In February,
February 14th of Balance Day, we
saw one of the largest
mobilization of the... about 10
to 11 million Iranians were
outside of Iran. In Los
Angeles, in Vancouver, Canada,
in Toronto, in Munich, we saw
over 2 million Iranians come
out. And by the way, what
you're seeing there is the
Persian flag. It's not the
Islamic flag. It's the old
Persian flag with the lion
and the sun and the sword. And
there's only one person that
they were supporting and only
one name they were chanting.
And that was Reza Pallavi. And
yet I get very frustrated when
I hear our administration or
world governments or the
media say, well, we don't
really know who they're
supporting. Or when Trump said
we don't know if he was asked
about Reza Pallavi, well, I
don't know if he asked the
support of the people. Well,
Mr. President, with all
due respect, you got wrong
people around you. Why
don't you invite Reza
Pallavi? This is what you
got to pray for. This will
change the entire narrative.
Invite Reza Pallavi into the
White House. Meet with
him. Find out their plan.
They have a well-thought-out
transition plan. And he said
publicly, I don't want to be
the long-term leader. I just
want to transition from this
hellhole to an actual
legitimate government that is
chosen by the Iranian people,
their form of government,
whether they want a secular
democracy or what I think
would be better, which would
be a constitutional monarchy
again, whatever they choose,
I just want to help them
transition. We want to bring
stability, security. He's also
said the very first thing he's
going to do is he's going to
sign a Cyrus Accord with
Israel. He's going to become
an ally of the United States,
but the world is silent. And
what's interesting is that
the world is silent. They
weren't, as I said, after
October 7th in Israel, they
weren't silent about Israel,
were they? Israel is
evil. Israel is apartheid.
Israel killed their own
people. Or Israel killed
their killing Christians they
claim. You know, Tucker
claiming they're killing
Christians. And then the whole
Palestinian thing. It's all
about Palestine, Palestine,
Palestine, Palestine. If you
were here when I was here
last year, when I gave my...
I don't have it here with me,
but I gave my Israel is
not replaced talk. I proved
to you that there is no
Palestine. There's never been
a Palestine. The country,
people, doesn't exist. It's a
myth. There are Arabs that
were either Egyptian,
Jordanian, Syrian, and that
land was never theirs. Go back
to Genesis 15, Genesis 17,
or no, I'm sorry, Genesis 15. Go
back to Exodus, chapter 23.
Look at the land covenant.
Look at the fact that as
part of the Abrahamic
covenant, that has not been
fulfilled. But the whole
Palestinian thing is
disgusting because we saw
many prominent, quote,
Christians and social media
influencers. Obviously the
likes of Candice and Tucker
and Megan Kelly and so
forth who have now
completely flipped and
lost their minds. We saw
them pushing the narrative
that Israel is committing
genocide in Gaza, a
country, or it's not a
country, a region and
obviously a Jihadist
organization like Hamas
that massacre 1200 Jews.
They are in war in Iran
at least 40, again,
conservative number, 45,000
in that one weekend alone,
not including how many have
been executed and killed
since then. And all
these same social media
influencers and Christian
leaders are dead silent
on Iran. What does that
tell you? It tells you
it doesn't fit the
narrative. The narrative
is we got to make Israel
look bad and we have to
have anybody that supports
Israel look bad. That's
why I can't... Tucker
called people who are,
quote, Zionists like
myself, a brain rot.
And they're trying...
Now, they're playing this
game that when Tucker
talks about Christian
persecution, he doesn't
talk about who's
persecuting the Christians
because the number one
source of the persecution
is coming from the Islamic
world. But Tucker's out
there talking about how
wonderful Sharia is and
how wonderful Islam is
and all these things. And
then they're trying to
now make it out to be
that Jesus... there are
so many social media
influencers and people on
the political right, these
groipers we call them, like
the Nick Fuenteses, who's
not even a conservative.
He's a... he came out
as a Democrat. These
people... Tucker's son who
worked for JD Vance
before he was ousted
is a registered Democrat.
These people are not
conservative. They are
wolves in sheep's clothing.
And Tucker was never
a conservative, in my
opinion. Even if he was,
he's lost his mind. And
you'll see in a minute,
I think he could be a
closet Muslim. But the myth
of Palestine is perpetuated
because the goal is
vilify Israel and anybody
that supports Israel and
the Jewish people. It's not
about justice or
Christian persecution. And
it's claimed that, oh,
Christians are treated
worse in Israel than they
are in the Muslim world, is
absolutely ludicrous. By
the way, for those of you
who don't know what we're
talking about, again in
the DVD, if you get a
copy, if you don't have a
copy of the Israel is not
replaced, I go through and I
go back through the history
of the word, the word
Palestinian came from.
Remember the Emperor
Hadrian? It was an insult
to the Jews. But, you know,
a lot of people today get
very confused within
Christianity, because they
say, well, oh, the
Palestinians, that's the
Philistines. No, because
the Philistines were not
Arabs. They were not
from the east. The Bible
tells you where they came
from. Here, for example,
Jeremiah 47, it tells
you the Philistines are
the remnant of a country
called Qaftor. Well, Qaftor
is, if you look at a map of
back then, during the time
of Jeremiah, Qaftor is in
modern day Crete. Crete
next to Greece. So the
Philistines were seabaring.
There came from the west and
took the land of Gaza, which
again, according to Exodus
23, belongs to the covenant
with Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob. So here's a good
news. When Jesus returns,
Gaza is going to be given
back to the Jewish people.
It doesn't belong to the
Arabs. It doesn't belong to
the Muslims. It doesn't
belong to Hamas. Unfortunately,
it doesn't belong to Trump
either, no matter what plans
they have for it. It's
going to be given to the
Jewish people back when
they go, when Jesus comes,
when the king comes. So,
but you know, you have
evangelicals pushing this
narrative that Jesus, now
they're trying to, the
Catholic Church, the Vatican,
some, some reformed theology,
hyper-Calvinists in the
church, what we call, we
call them partial
Preterists. Again, I covered
this one this year, last
year. They're trying to
now take the Jewishness
from Jesus. They're
claiming Jesus was never
a Jew. He was a
Christian. As if the
first century church
wasn't reading the
Old Testament. They, they,
remember, the early
church didn't have the
New Testament yet.
The Vatican came
out and gave an award last
week to one of the
Islamic clerics who's an
ambassador. Talk about
bad timing. Tucker, of
course, came out a couple
weeks ago and was talking
about how wonderful the
Muslim Jesus is, and how
the Muslim Jesus will come,
will be coming back and
destroy the Antichrist.
Maybe if Tucker actually
had any courage, he
would actually bring
somebody on a show that
would be knowledgeable and
disagree with him, and would
teach him that the
Muslim understanding of
the Antichrist, they believe
that the Jesus of the
Bible is the Antichrist.
They call him Al-Masiyah
Dijal the False Messiah.
So maybe he should know
that. But when you are
claiming to be a
Christian, as he does,
and now you're extolling
and lifting up the
Muslim Jesus, you know, I
got to wonder if he's been
converted, because as
much as wonderful he's
talking about Islam, usually
you only do that if you are
at the point where you're
thinking about becoming
a Muslim. And I've told
people, don't be shocked if
these people come out and
have converted. He may never
admit it. Yeah, we can
let him go. Well, I don't
think there's anything to
let go, because I don't
think there's evidence that
he was ever a believer.
But just in case you're
interested, and you have
people that are confused on
these things, particularly
young people who are
listening to these social
media influencers, folks,
don't undermine them. Don't
minimize them. This guy,
Nick Fuentes, has several
million followers, and most
of his followers are young
men. The groipers, this
groiper movement, which
they deny the Holocaust,
they deny, you know,
they're vehemently anti-Israel,
anti-Jew, not just anti-Israel.
Look, if you want to
criticize the Israeli
government, that's fine.
But they're anti-Jew and
the existence of the Jews.
And making Kelly, last
week I had a show on Rumble,
if you want to go back
and watch it, I call it
Flip Flop Influencers, where
I was playing their clips
just like making Kelly,
January of this year.
She was like, Islam is
not good, it's not
compatible. All of a sudden,
then in May, she's like,
well, you know,
Tucker's onto something.
The Muslims, they're
being vilified. And you
know, it's vilifying the
Muslims, it's all these
people who are supporting
Israel, all the Christians
who support Israel, because
they need to have some sort
of an enemy. They've got
to make up an enemy, as
if Islam needs to be
made up, and all their
1400 years of atrocities,
including as we speak,
against millions and
millions of Christians
globally. So we did a
document on our website
called Polar Opposites,
where we compare the
biblical Jesus versus
the false Jesus of
Islam, two pages
that encourage you.
Go print it out, share it,
read it, study it,
equip yourself, give it to
your kids, your grandkids,
so they do not fall for
the deception of these
false prophets that are
these social media influencers
and the so-called
pastors who support them.
Kirk Cameron came out
as a Preterist, came out
against Israel.
These guys have
a lot of followers.
So, I just want to spend
just very quickly.
I'm not going to spend a lot
of time on this before
I get to America.
But I do want to briefly
mention that this issue
with Iran isn't just
geopolitical or modern day.
I mean, I showed you
the beginning of this
presentation. Iran,
the Persian history,
the history of the Bible,
right? There is a
symbiotic relationship.
I told you about Elam.
Now, there are
two distinct prophecies
that I believe have not yet
been fulfilled.
I did briefly talk about
this on this year last year.
One is Ezekiel 38
and then chapter 39
that then lists nations
that are going to come
against Israel
in the last days.
Now, you have to understand
at the time that Ezekiel
is writing this,
Israel is in captivity.
And subsequently, after
Ezekiel,
Israel never became
a nation again.
So, how can
countries attack Israel
if they're not there?
So, you understand,
they had to be there.
They had to be rebirth.
And we'll talk about that.
But Ezekiel does mention
Persia as one of these
countries here.
Here is this Gog-Magog
battle that it talks about
later in 1823 as well.
And again, chapter 39.
So, if you haven't read this,
you know, chapter 36,
God spoke about
that he was going to bring
him back into land.
Chapter 37,
you have the dry bones
prophecy where they come
back into the land.
But yet in unbelief,
then his spirit
comes within them.
And then chapter 38,
he lists these nations
that are going to come
against Israel.
Now, consensus is that
Gog-Magog, when it talks
about Rosh,
that that potentially could
be Russia because it says
from the far north.
And then it mentions
Magog, which is Central Asia,
which by the way today
are all Islamic countries.
And then it mentions Put,
modern-day Libya,
Morocco area.
Kush is sort of the Sudan,
Ethiopia area,
back in the day of Ezekiel.
Because remember,
in context,
when the prophecy is given,
you got to go back
and you got to look at
what was the region then.
Not just what it is now,
but what was it then.
And so,
and then it mentions Persia.
So Persia is mentioned.
But the challenge is,
is at the time of the
Ezekiel prophecy,
this was Persia.
It wasn't that little bit
today.
You see Iraq,
and then you see Iran.
Okay?
This was Persia.
It was 15 times,
20 times bigger.
Into Western Europe,
into Turkey,
into Afghanistan,
Pakistan,
modern-day Iran,
again,
up in the Central Asia,
that was the Persian Empire.
And today,
the majority of those
countries are against Israel,
are governed by Islam,
are Arabs,
but Iranians are not Arabs.
We've already established that.
We're Semitic Persians,
those who are Persian.
There are Arabs who live in Iran.
There are Kurds who live in Iran.
There are lorries who live in Iran.
Azerbaijanis live in Iran.
Turks live in Iran.
But the Persians in Iran
are descendants of Shem.
Here's another view of the map.
At the time of Ezekiel,
approximately.
So here's one scenario.
In my opinion,
there are three scenarios
that are going to happen prophetically.
Because people ask me all the time,
what does this mean in Bible prophecy?
I hope you believe in Bible prophecy.
And I hope you understand
we're in the last days.
So number one scenario,
nothing happens
and this regime stays in power.
And they continue to do
all the evil they're doing.
And the question is,
what will be the circumstances
that will then lead them
to attack Israel?
Because you're going to see
that if you read Ezekiel chapter 38,
particularly verse 10, 11, and 14,
you're going to see that they're
as a very, very specific parameter
that is put in place
for the attack to happen.
Now remember, Ezekiel says
God puts a hook in their mouth.
So God is drawing them
for a specific purpose.
It's not His will,
but He's allowing it.
But it says this,
that Israel must be in unwalled villages,
no gates, no bars,
safety and peace.
Can I ask you a question?
Is Israel today in safety and peace?
No, they're fighting seven wars right now.
If the Muslim world had its way,
they would wipe them off the face of the planet.
By the way, why does Iran
and this regime want to destroy Israel?
Because in their eschatology,
they believe that their Messiah,
the Marti, will come to Damascus,
march upon Jerusalem,
take over Jerusalem,
and establish the Islamic caliphate
from Jerusalem with Jesus being there.
That's what they believe.
So Jerusalem, even though it's not mentioned in the Koran one time,
is significant for their eschatology.
So as long as the Jews are there,
Islam has a problem.
Does that make sense?
They can't fulfill their prophecy.
So they have to wipe the Jews.
That's why there is no two-state solution.
There's only a one-state solution.
Wipe the Jews.
What does from the river to the sea mean?
It's an extermination clause.
So scenario one, nothing happens.
I don't see that scenario.
Because Israel will never be in unwell...
Listen, as long as this regime is in power
and they're breathing,
they will not stop until they will destroy Israel
and wipe out every Jew.
So how can Israel be in unwell villages and in peace and safety
for the Antichrist to come and sign a covenant?
And some will say, well, the Antichrist will do it.
Okay, that's a possibility.
But in my opinion, there's a second scenario,
and that is God is using this timing
to actually liberate Iran,
to liberate the church in Iran,
to allow the gospel to go forth into Iran.
And people like me, who are going to be the first ones to say,
I'm going to go back and preach the gospel in Iran.
The moment it's open, we're going and preaching the gospel in Iran.
But Iran has the unique potential
of not only becoming potentially a Christian nation.
And you're going to see just in a minute why.
But number two, Iran could become a sending nation
for the gospel like South Korea was for a time
until it's gotten infiltrated by the communists.
And then, that's scenario two.
So the nation is liberated.
If Halevi comes in, remember I said,
first thing he's going to do, he's going to sign.
He said, look, we're not just going to agree
to the Abrahamic Cords, which personally I don't support
because I think it's false peace, but it is going to happen.
God's word is that certain things are going to happen.
Not only he said we'll support the Abrahamic Cords,
but we're going to sign a Cyrus Accords.
They're going to go even further.
That could usher in not only the peace with Israel,
you have to understand the entire Middle East right now,
people, people, Muslims in the Middle East,
people who live in the... are watching Iran
because they're watching to see what will happen in Iran.
If Iran liberates, this is going to shift.
Now, second, very quick, second prophecy is Jeremiah 49.
I do not believe... I disagree with people like Amir Safardi
on this who say this is in the past.
I believe this prophecy in Jeremiah 49 is about Eid al-Lawm.
You see on the map there where Eid al-Lawm is.
It's the southwestern portion of modern day Iran.
That's where Persepolis and all the history of the Bible took place.
That was the capital of the Persian Empire.
And of course, some of the nuclear facilities like Boucher is also there.
But that's also the region that is right now in dispute.
You see how that goes up to the Strait of Hormuz?
You guys know where the Strait of Hormuz is?
It's that little tiny tip there at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.
And those mountains there, very mountainous,
that's where the majority of Iran's ballistic missiles were housed.
And Bandar Abbas is there with support in the southern part of Iran.
What I've advocated for is I think keep the blockades going
until you cut off all their money.
Because if they don't have money, they can't pay these militias.
And the best way to arm the Iranian people
is you need defections within the military,
within the police, and within some of the IRGC,
the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
The second way to arm the people is get weapons to them.
Trump already tried this through the Kurds,
and the Kurds stole the weapons.
Back in March we heard the CIA is arming the Kurds,
and I was like, oh, not a good idea.
And then Trump came out and admitted they stole the weapons.
It didn't get to the people.
So if you take Harg Island, that island down in the Strait,
and take the port, all you got to do is take the port,
not, it's not going to say easy, it's going to be easy,
but you take the port, and now from there
you arm the Iranian people.
I don't want American boots on the ground.
And the Iranians don't want American boots on the ground.
They want two things.
Keep bombing us, don't stop, and arm us.
Let us fight our own fight.
So what does Jeremiah 49 says?
Something incredible.
It talks about Elam.
God's going to break the bow of Elam,
break their princes, scatter the people.
But in verse 30 and 39 it says something incredible.
It says, in the latter days or last days,
it's talking about the future.
God will restore the fortunes of Elam
and regather the people.
And then it says the most incredible thing.
It says, and in Elam, God will set up his throne.
Now the only other place in the Bible
where God sets up his throne is in Jerusalem, in Zion.
And this could not have happened
at the time of the coming out of captivity.
And people like Sephardi say,
oh, well the Elamites no longer exist.
If you read the book of Acts,
who were one of the people that were name by name
who were in Jerusalem at the time of the outpouring
of the Holy Spirit?
It says the Elamites.
Many people believe at least one of the Magi's was from Persia.
Where do you think the Magi's came from?
The wise men came from the east,
more than likely from Persia.
There were the Elamites.
So Jeremiah 49 is talking about Elam.
So here's scenario number three.
Remember, scenario number one, nothing happens.
Status quo.
This regime stays in.
I guess at some point, Persia is going to attack,
but question is what Persia?
Which boundaries of Persia?
The Persia of Ezekiel,
when during the time of the prophecy,
or this Persia, this Iran?
And number two scenario,
Iran liberates for a short time.
It becomes an ally of Israel,
and then something shifts at some point,
and it will follow the Antichrist spirit
and that whole thing,
and then it will turn.
Here's scenario three,
which I think is the most likely scenario.
Iran will liberate,
but in the liberation,
I don't think you can keep all of Iran together.
Pallavi is trying,
but I think Iran is going to split.
Because there's too many Islamic forces.
There is still about 8% of the population
that are fundamentalist Muslims.
Even if you get rid of the regime,
what do you do with those people?
They're never going to accept...
They're not going to accept Pallavi.
And so I think the scenario is,
it's going to split.
And now,
Elam doesn't participate in the Ezekiel 38-39 battle.
Elam stays separate,
or it's scattered,
and then the Lord restores their fortunes
at the end of the Tribulation.
Upon his return,
he's going to set up his throne in Elam.
Now, in all of this,
this is speculation,
and all we can do is pray.
But as we understand,
there's an incredible,
unique relationship between Iran and Israel,
the Jewish people and the Persian people.
In fact, in Israel,
they have names, streets named after King Cyrus.
Korosh.
And that's why, again,
I highlighted my Israel is not replaced DVD,
because we have to understand.
God's timing in what he's doing in Persia
is directly related to what he's doing in Israel.
This is all symbiotically tied.
That's why the greatest prophetic sign
that has happened to point
that we're in the last days
is the rebirth of the nation of Israel.
Miraculously.
That's true Zionism.
That's Zionism.
Not global Zionism.
Biblical Zionism is the belief
that God is going to keep his word
based on the Abrahamic covenant.
That the Abrahamic covenant was eternal.
It was everlasting.
It was unconditional.
I covered that all last year when I was here.
And that true Zionism is the belief
that in the fulfillment of God's word
and his name,
not because the Jews deserved it,
but simply because he's keeping his word.
He's restoring the nation.
They're an unbelief, right?
Paul talks about that in Romans.
That they're an unbelief.
The majority of the Jews,
there are only 16 million of them on the entire planet.
They're an unbelief.
The majority.
But God is fulfilling his word.
And true Zionism,
biblically speaking,
is the belief that we believe
they're not there in the land by accident.
It wasn't some globalist scheme.
They didn't usurp anybody.
That's the land that God has given them.
And then Amos 9, remember when it says prophesize,
once they go into the land,
they'll never be uprooted again.
Think about 1948 and subsequently.
Think about how many times
the Arab nations and the Muslims
have come against Israel.
Israel has been greatly outnumbered
so many times,
starting with the partition plan,
then the Six Day War,
Yom Kippur War,
the modern intifadas,
all of it.
Every time they should have been wiped out
and they're still standing.
That is not an accident.
That is because God said,
once they go back in,
they'll never be uprooted again.
And I believe that.
And that's true Zionism.
It doesn't mean I agree
with the Israeli government on every issue,
but it means that I agree with God's word.
And too many Christians have fallen
into replacement,
covenantal, fulfillment,
whatever you want to call it.
It's partial predatorism.
They're denying prophecy.
They're denying us for today.
But the Iranian...
By the way, when you saw all these rallies
that are happening around the world
in support of the Iranian people,
the most incredible things,
when you see Jews standing with Persians
and Persians standing with Jews,
and this has been going on again and again.
And so freeing Iran
is, I believe, part of God's timing right now.
I personally believe it's going to happen,
but here's the thing.
The other reason it's happening
is because an incredible thing
is happening in Iran.
Remember I said 1979,
they estimated 98% Muslim?
Well, the regime has admitted
2024, the regime itself admitted
that over 50,000 of the 75,000
mosque in Iran have shut down,
because nobody's going.
They have an 8% or less mosque attendance.
A study was done in 2021.
I think the numbers are even worse now
for the regime that identified
that only one-third,
one-third of Iranians identify as Muslim anymore.
They are either gone secular,
they're gone back to Zoroastrianism,
or they're turning to Christianity.
They're done not only with the regime,
they're done with Islam.
Meanwhile in America,
we're hugging Islam.
Whereas they are so wonderful.
Jacob Fry is doing videos for the Somalis,
you know, speaking Somali.
What a useful idiot that guy is, right?
Where as a Jew,
doesn't he understand?
These guys need to smack upside the head.
But the fact is that this is part
of the message for America.
You see, at the very beginning,
why is the world silent?
The world can't tolerate a free Iran.
Because a free Iran upends the global order.
It upends their plans.
Because Islam is an integral plan of the globalist
for global governance,
global economy, and global religion.
Islam is central to one world religion.
I did that presentation here a couple of years ago.
Number two, the Arab nation didn't support a free Iran.
Because they know a free Iran is an Islamic free Iran.
And that has the potential to upend the entire Middle East.
Because the other Muslim countries,
people in the other countries are going to go,
hey, they did it, we want it.
We don't want to be...
Listen, if you talk to...
If Muslims are honest,
the majority of Muslims will tell you.
The majority, particularly the ones who are lukewarm,
they'll tell you,
we don't want to be governed under Sharia.
My dad brought us out of Iran to America,
because we didn't want to be under that.
And so...
But the other reason I believe this is
prophetically happening and why it's God's timing
is because of the massive Christian population in Iran.
It's because of the underground churches,
it's because of the power of the church there,
it's because of the organic nature,
it is because of what we're seeing happening,
the greatest revival on the planet,
and it's happening because the Iranian churches,
you see, they don't focus on church planning.
They're not trying to say,
let's start a church, let's start a church.
You know what they're focused on?
They're focused on making disciples.
They make disciples,
and every time the government cracks down,
and they take some leaders,
and they arrest leaders,
and torture leaders, and kill leaders,
God raises up others.
That's what the American church needs to return
back to.
We need to make disciples of Christ
and not plant churches.
Because when you make disciples,
God will take care of his church.
Amen.
God will raise up the leaders to make his church.
That's our problem,
and that's why we're seeing the impact
that we have there.
So as I wrap up,
just a few more minutes,
as I wrap up,
now I'm bringing it all back to America.
We got to pray.
As Pastor Dale said,
this weekend, the time in DC,
we're about to reach our 250th birthday as a nation.
We've seen the absolute collapse
of Western Europe to Islam.
We're seeing the collapse of Canada,
Australia, New Zealand,
other nations.
We're seeing obviously
the eradication of Christianity
in the Middle East,
in places that were
in Africa and the Middle East
predominantly Christian.
Syria, Iraq,
you had Egypt,
again, Nigeria was predominantly Christian.
Sudan was predominantly Christian.
Ethiopia was predominantly Christian.
No longer.
But we have to understand
that that red and green access,
so what would be the message
of the Iranian people to you,
to us here,
the same players,
the same foes,
that over through our nation in Iran
are working to overthrow America.
Same playbook.
It's the same team.
The red and the green.
The Marxists and Communists
and Muslims working together.
And right now,
their poster child,
the best example of this
is Mr. Memdani.
And if you get our brand new
DVD battle for America,
we go through this entirety
of this red green access
and all the two houses.
But Memdani is the perfect example.
Ran on the DSA ticket,
what's DSA?
Democrat Socialists of America
is what you have here in your,
in the state of Minneapolis, right?
They're not even,
they're not just Democrats anymore.
They're full on Socialist Marxist Communists.
And Memdani,
as a Muslim, right?
He ran as a Democrat Socialist,
but on election day,
and then on his swearing in day,
he had no problem
putting his hand on the Quran
and then proudly declaring
he's a Muslim.
And then they put that Quran
in the city hall,
in a booth called the People's Quran,
but here's the thing.
Why is Memdani dangerous?
Because Memdani is also a 12er Shia Muslim.
Memdani is a younger,
more good-looking version of Khomeini.
And his message
was the exact message
that Khomeini was giving
to the Iranian people.
We're going to give you free housing.
We're going to give you free education.
We're going to give you free healthcare.
We're going to give you free this and free that.
Just let us come in
and we'll fix all the problem.
And by the way,
not only did the left vote for him,
not only did the liberals vote for him
and the leftists and the feminists voted,
but one-third of his votes
came from the Jewish community
in the city of New York.
And how is it working for them now
with over a 200% increase
in anti-Semitic attacks in New York City?
But Memdani is Khomeini.
His mom is from India.
Same background.
She's an avowed socialist.
His father, remember,
an avowed communist social...
Marxist teaches at Columbia University.
But Memdani is a 12-verse Shia.
He believes in the same eschatology
of the 12-vers caused the chaos,
caused the mayhem,
and yet the Sunnis support him.
The Muslim Brotherhood supports him.
They work together.
But to bring it home, please understand,
if people ask you, what's the big deal?
This is Khomeini in America.
And the violence that we're seeing now
from the red-green and the pink,
I told you guys about this last time,
that's trans-tifa.
That's the trans joining Antifa.
They've taken over Antifa
and they're working to destroy this.
God gave me the blessing recently
to be a part connected to a ministry
that's based out of Dallas
called Iran and Alive Ministries.
For many, many years,
they've worked as a ministry
to support the underground Christian movement in Iran
and Christians around the world
and share the gospel.
And that's what our ministry does as well.
But lately, they decided
that they need to shift their focus.
And why?
They decided we need to focus on America.
Because we're seeing the same things in America.
This is the message from Iranians.
Again, if I can share one message to you,
it's the same thing.
And right now, this is 1970-70 Iran.
This is 1970-80 Iran.
You guys are on the brink...
America is on the brink of this
attempted coup and overthrow
and sabotage that's been going on
for many, many decades.
Just like it was in Iran.
It didn't happen instantaneously, right?
But this is the moment
where the bride of Christ has got to rise up.
The church has got to rise up.
And we need truth and courage and boldness, repentance.
So they've come out and they said,
we're going to put out a project.
They interviewed a few different people.
Many, several who are former Muslims from Iran.
I had the privilege of being asked to be in this documentary.
It's called The Great American Conflict,
The Clash of the Cultures.
End of this month, I'll be going to Dallas.
Remember last year when I was here?
And Pastor Vern prophetically felt the Lord leading him
to support me going to Texas.
I can't tell you the doors that God has opened
in the state of Texas since that time.
When I went last May, that opened the door.
I have been to the state of Texas
now eight times since last year.
And this documentary coming from that ministry
in Texas in Dallas area, God is opening doors.
And I want to thank you guys.
And I want to, if Pastor Vern was here,
I would thank him personally because they,
by faith he paid my way.
I was invited, remember last minute to go
and they paid my way to go and God's opened that door.
But please pray for this because I'm going back to Dallas
on the 31st of May for the world premiere of it.
And then it's going to go streaming after that.
We're hoping that a lot of people will watch this
and we're hoping that this could be a game changer
in the conversation in the church for what is going on
with the Islamic agenda in America,
but also spiritually it points out
how Islam is antithetical to Christianity.
So if you want to connect to our website,
we'll put information on there.
After the May 31st, I think it's going to be
on the Salem network.
It'll be available for streaming.
So connect with us through our email.
Keep an eye on our website.
And also watch my rumble channel
and I'll make sure I get information out.
Once that becomes available for streaming,
but yeah, just pray that God would use it.
But again, the battle for America is the battle for Iran.
And the battle for Iran is the battle for America.
That's why it matters.
It's not just...
Oh, it's another country over there who cares.
Oh, they have this history, who cares?
It doesn't affect us.
No, it does.
Because everything the Iranian people have gone through,
you guys are going through here now.
We are going through here now in America.
The question is, will your children and my children
and our grandchildren one day say,
why didn't they fight?
Why didn't they stand up?
Why didn't they do anything to come against this?
Why did they believe the lie that,
oh, it's just a small percentage.
Oh, they don't have power.
Oh, we have guns here.
They'll never take our freedoms.
No, we're handing our freedoms to them.
It's like we did during COVID.
We had lots of guns during COVID.
Look what the government did to us.
So this lesson of Iran is a lesson for Minnesota.
It's a lesson for America.
It's not isolated.
But the solution begins with us in the house of God.
It begins with us contending for our faith.
It begins with us standing firmly,
praying for righteousness to be exalted in our nation again.
And brothers and sisters,
righteousness is not going to be exalted from the White House.
It's got to be exalted from God's house.
First, first, pray for our leadership.
Pray for righteous leaders.
Pray for the president.
But it's got to start with us.
With you, with me, with our families,
with our churches, right here.
Contending for Christ, praying for boldness.
We need a spirit of boldness.
We need to pray for righteousness to give us boldness,
so we would not be ashamed of the gospel.
We'd not be ashamed of the truth.
We'd not be embarrassed to worry about, quote,
offending people because we know we have victory, right?
We have victory in Christ.
He has overcome.
He has overcome.
But pray for America.
Pray for salvation here and a repentance and a turning.
Pray obviously for this weekend.
That the spirit that will be there.
And pastors, I'm going to challenge you on one thing.
Because you're going to go as a carrier.
We talked about this.
But you got to go there and you got to tell them.
You don't pray to any God.
We pray to the one true God.
There's going to be religious leaders there.
But there's also going to be a mixed bag of leaders there.
And there's going to be ecumenicalism.
And ecumenicalism will never bring the favor of God.
Because we lift up the one true God.
And his name is Yahweh.
His name is Jehovah.
So I just want to encourage you, Pastor,
go there and remind them.
We need to call on the name of Jesus Christ.
Oh, we're going to bring the Muslims in.
And we're going to bring the Mormons in.
And we're going to bring the Catholics in.
We're going to, well, whatever.
We got to lift up the name of the one true God
who is jealous for his glory.
I don't ever see the blessing of this nation
if we continue to go down this road.
So please understand, we have victory in Christ.
But we got to have Christ alone.
Salvation is but one name.
And we need to remind people of that.
And it's not that I want it to be
governmentally mandated, right?
And we're talking about we have to lift up his name.
Pray for Israel.
Pray for the salvation of the Jewish people.
Pray for the Muslims.
Pray for their salvation.
But remember the one thing that all of this
is going to be defeated.
All of this strategy is going to be defeated
because God is going to fulfill his plan.
God's going to fulfill his word.
God's going to fulfill his prophetic timing.
And God is going to usher in his kingdom.
And it's coming and it's soon.
And we're going through tribulation.
We're going to go, you know,
the world is going to go through lots of stuff.
But we understand that in the end, God wins.
He's already won spiritually,
but he will usher in his kingdom.
This will become his kingdom.
It's not yet his kingdom,
but it will become his kingdom.
And so with that,
I'm just grateful for this opportunity
to be with you tonight.
I know it was a lot to cover.
I had added some things here tonight
because I really wanted you to get
the sense of what was going on.
So if it's okay to pass for that,
I'm going to pray real quick.
I know we're not done.
And we're going to take a quick break.
We're going to pray real quick
before we take the offering.
And I just want to pray that, again,
the Spirit of the Lord would be upon us
in this hour in an unbelievable measure of boldness.
Amen.
We got to really, really ramp up
our willingness to be used of God in this hour.
So Father, thank you for tonight.
Thank you for this reminder and this message.
Folks, Father, this isn't just what's going on in Iran
or in the Middle East or over there.
This is what's happening in America.
This is what's happening against Christianity.
This is what's happening against your church
and against your bride.
And Father, I pray that this outpouring
of your spirit upon the remnant of your people,
upon those who have ears to hear and eyes to see.
Father, I pray that they would receive
what the Spirit is saying to them
and that you will pour out such a spirit of boldness,
such a spirit of courage,
such a spirit of faith.
And Father, a spirit of repentance
and that we would recognize
that we need to first live for you,
that we need not lukewarm Christianity in America,
not comfortable Christianity in America.
But Father, we need sold out Christianity in America.
We need a church, a bride that is 100% sold out
and committed to you.
And that we will not stand and allow evil
just to come into the gates without a fight,
without opposition, without prayer,
without fasting, and without seeking your face
and saying, Lord, use us.
So I pray, Father, use each one here tonight.
I do pray for Pastor Dale
and all those who are going to be in D.C. Lord,
especially those who are actual,
the true believers in Christ, Father.
I pray that you would anoint them.
I pray you would give them bold voices.
I pray you would give them courage, Lord.
I pray that if anything is there that is unclean,
if anything that is there is not of your spirit,
Lord, it would be revealed, it would be called out,
it would be prayed against that, Lord, the true,
the true and clean spirit of the living God
would be lifted up in Washington, D.C.
with the spirit of repentance, Lord,
with the true spirit of repentance
that we would call out to you,
cry out to you and say,
Father, forgive us for how much
we have sinned against you as a nation,
how much we have fallen short of your glory,
how much we have forsaken your laws and your statutes,
and, Lord, forgive us.
And, Father, lead us back, turn us back.
Let this be a true dedication
to our foundation as a nation
that we submit to the very laws of nature
and nature as God, Lord God,
and that we will not forsake those laws
as we have in this nation
and to the ends of the earth.
And, Father, we pray for the Iranian people.
We pray for their liberation.
We pray for their courage.
We pray for their sustenance,
especially the believers in Iran, Lord.
And, Father, your will be done.
Give wisdom to President Trump.
Give wisdom to Israel.
Give wisdom to all those
who are making these decisions
that they would not be blinded
or deceived or confused,
but, Lord, they would have the clarity
of the Lord in their decision-making
and we pray bring it to fruition,
liberate, open that nation for the gospel
and may it be ascending nation
for the gospel to the ends of the earth.
And, Lord, I pray for Minnesota, Lord,
that you would continue to stir your people here,
stir the church, and convict, Lord,
those churches that are playing games.
Lord, this is no time for games.
This is no time for, quote, doing church.
We need to get into the battle,
put on the armor of God and understand
that this is no joke.
This is spiritual battle to a highest degree.
And may your people lead the way.
In Jesus' name we pray.
Thank you, Lord, for the support of these people.
Thank you, Lord, for my brothers and sisters in Christ
who would support our ministry to go forth.
May our message, not my message, Lord,
may your message through this ministry go forth.
Please use this movie.
Please use resources.
Please use whatever you want to use, Lord,
to carry this forth, this message
and educate as many people as possible.
May the truth set us free.
In Jesus' name we pray.
Amen. Amen.
Amen and amen.
Amen. And how about, thank you, Pastor Shoram.
Howdy in.
Anybody over here have a question for Pastor Shoram
at this point?
I'll come back if we need... anybody here?
Question.
Okay, anybody in this section have a question?
It's a miracle.
This is... I put the fear of God into everybody.
Nobody wants to say anything.
Or they've had enough.
They're like, we've had enough of him.
Or they just want to grab you at the table.
At the table, yes.
I'll be at the table.
He stops.
Okay, nobody here?
Any questions in here?
I thought I saw somebody.
Come on, Kerry.
All right.
Kerry Erickson.
All right.
Please ask your question.
My question would be, as somebody who left his country as it was getting bad,
what is your thought about Americans making Plan B plans, you know, to...
You know, at what point would you pull that trigger or staying and fighting for your country?
That's a great question.
Where would we go?
That's my problem.
I will not lie to you that I have not had that thought myself at times.
But that's the question.
Where do you go where this effort is not underway?
We are not just fighting against in one country.
We're fighting really against the globalist agenda.
So, you know, it's like, okay, where in South America?
What about Eastern Europe, like Poland or Hungary?
I mean, there's very few options that we would even consider as, you know, being an option.
So, I think that right now our mentality has to be we have to stay and fight and we have to...
But what I'm trying to do is just get us past this sort of normalcy bias.
Get us past this apathy.
That was the problem of the Iranian people.
It wasn't that they couldn't have fought and been more vocal.
But it was the fact that, number one, they just didn't believe it could happen.
And number two, they also didn't know how good they had it.
That was the problem.
That's why these young people are willing to die for the son of the Shah and his name.
Because what they're trying to do is, again, right or wrong.
They know how good they had it.
And they would give anything to go back to even though it wasn't perfect.
Nothing is perfect.
But they know that it was so much better than anything that has been in the last 47 years.
So I think that right now, I mean, only the Lord can answer that question.
If the Lord calls you to go somewhere, you know, we left Washington State to come to Tennessee
to fight for Tennessee.
But yet he's called me here 32 times in Minnesota.
So he's not done.
He's fighting for you guys.
And so let's occupy where we are and fight and stand unless he moves you somewhere else.
But I don't have a number one option right now.
That's the problem.
So good question.
If America falls, where do we go for freedom?
Yeah, I don't know where else we go.
Bill, okay.
Thank you.
Yeah. So during the Iraq war, the Kurds were under attack.
We protected them.
They came back.
They helped.
They became allies of ours, right?
So do you have any idea as to whether the Kurds are planning to align themselves
with the people of Iran?
That's a good question.
The answer is no.
I think that they want to be independent.
And I think that's why they're not cooperating.
Reza Pallavi again is trying to keep them in the fold
because there is that Kurdish population in the northwestern part of Iran.
But that's why I'm saying that I think the likely scenario
that if this was to be liberated, it could mean a split.
And part of that split is people who are not going to submit to that transition,
including the Kurds.
So that's why I think they didn't follow through with what they should have followed
through, which is the weapons.
Yeah. So I don't see them being loyal to the Shah or to the Iranian people.
And I think that they, for so long, they've wanted their own nation.
I mean, they've been oppressed in Iraq.
They've been oppressed in Syria.
They weren't really oppressed in Iran under the Shah.
They are now.
But I don't see them cooperating in that sense.
At least long term.
I think it's going to split.
That's just my sense.
So that's a great question.
Okay. We'll be like a windshield wiper.
We came this way and now we're going to go back that way.
So we're going to this section again.
Anybody here?
Okay. Anybody here?
Okay. Yeah.
Why don't you come up here because we got the security breach here.
You got the chair between you.
Thanks so much for sharing.
So my question is with the Muslims that are in the United States right now.
What percent of those are fundamentalists?
Which, what percentage are lukewarm slash cultural?
And then what is the most effective way you'd say in terms of sharing the
gospel of Jesus Christ with either or both?
Great question.
Hard to say exactly.
But as I said earlier, we have seen a movement towards fundamentalism.
But so I would say that of the percentage of Muslims in America now,
that you're probably looking at at least 30 to 40 percent that are fundamentalists
versus that number was probably maybe 10 percent, you know, a generation ago.
The fundamentalism is growing because foreign influence, the Muslim Brotherhood,
the Iranian influence, Iran has a major influence with a number of Islamic movements,
particularly in Houston, Texas, and in Michigan.
And they are preaching fundamentalism and they're preaching obedience now.
That percentage of the Muslims that are lukewarm, for example, with Iranians,
you go to California, there's over a million Iranians that live in southern California,
majority of them are secular.
They're Muslim in name only.
But within like here in with the Somali population, for example,
they're very fundamentalist.
I was just up in St. Cloud before I came over here and, you know,
they're walking around town with full Islamic garbond, both the men and the women.
So that's... if they're dressed like that, what does that tell you?
They're fundamentalist.
That's strict interpretation.
Now, to the second part of the question, as quickly as I can,
you know, we have gospel tracks on our table, we have different presentations,
we have the polar opposites.
The biggest and important thing to do is do not approach them from a place of commonality.
That's the mistake that churches and groups are making.
Even Wednesday night, when we were talking with Bijan,
I listened to him, his background, he identified not as a fundamentalist Muslim,
but what's called a Sufi Muslim, which is a very, very, very, very small percentage of Muslims.
They're really considered a cult within Islam because they don't ascribe to all of Islam.
But we listened, but then we went to, okay, let's talk about the differences.
And let's talk about comparing who truly Christ is to what they...
Because he had some misconceptions about Christianity, about Jesus, about whatever.
So it was our role to just correct those and present those.
And that's how the Holy Spirit used that to really work in his heart.
So I fully believe that there's power in just the contrast in presenting the difference
and saying, okay, you believe this, but here's what the Bible teaches.
And here's who the Jesus of the Bible is. And if we do that, if we get back to that,
we're going to see much greater power in evangelism.
Really, what we see in Minnesota, for the most part, is not evangelism.
It's presenting a social gospel. We want to get along.
We want to help them assimilate, which they're not.
We want to help them get settled in and get jobs and get housing and get healthcare
and get free this and get their EBT cards. But we're not actually giving them the gospel,
which is the contrast of what they believe. So I wish I could say fundamentalism was going down,
but it's going up. And it's because of the fact that the mosques themselves are becoming,
are not becoming, but they're preaching fundamentalism. And one other thing, fundamentalism
will lead to Jew hatred and persecution of Christians. Because that's what fundamentalism,
it's not radical, it's fundamentalism that is there. So, but I bless your heart for reaching
the Muslims. Let's pray for God's heart. Let's pray for wisdom, but let's just present the
truth to them. And I sound simple, but I think we overcomplicate what the mission is.
We present the gospel. Yeah. And I think to your point, Dar al-Faruk,
mosque down in Bloomington, you may be aware of this, but the Imam came out
about a month ago, and he talked in terms of telling his people that they are here to replace us.
Absolutely. Right. So would you distinguish from that question? Yeah.
Is there a distinguishable difference between what you just would call a fundamentalist Muslim
and a jihadist? No. There is no. That's a great question, right? Because we think of a jihadist
as some sort of a radical Muslim. But you know, my friend Annie Cyrus, I have a book
on my table that she just put out, the architecture of jihad. Jihad is the mechanism of establishing
Islam. The word jihad literally means warfare to establish the religion against non-Muslims.
Jihad isn't blow yourself up. There's 10 different forms of jihad, which she outlines in that
book. It's on Amazon. I'm not selling it. I just brought one to help support her to promote
it. And so that's a great point, is that someone who is a fundamentalist is promoting jihad,
does believe it in jihad, all forms of jihad. And that's why there's no distinction of that.
Whereas today, people want to call it radicalism or, you know, Islamism,
somehow that like the some version of Islam, you know, at the end of the unicorn with the
rainbow or then the rainbow with the unicorn that is somehow peaceful and tolerant. No. There
are peaceful Muslims. There are Muslims that are non-compliant and non-observing. Like my dad,
there's no such thing as a moderate, peaceful Islam. It's fundamental. You have to interpret it
fundamentally. And by the way, al-Faruk was the mosque that threatened us. That was then 2018.
We were supposed to have an event in Bloomington and they threatened our event and the
sheriff would not give us any security. So we had to cancel that event last minute.
One of five events that got canceled within 36 hours, but the al-Faruk mosque down there near
Bloomington area was the one that we got all the threats from.
One of the top two mosques in America providing al-Qaeda commanders.
There you go. So last question right here, ma'am.
We're having our GOP convention at the end of the month in Duluth.
So in your opinion, what can be the most important question we can ask the governor
candidates or other candidates that needs to be done this, you know, for this coming election?
This election. Great question. Three things I would say. One is, what is your plan to
promote assimilation? There's a friend of mine, Andy Ogles, who's a member of Congress in Tennessee.
He's put forth a bill in the House that is pushing for assimilation. And if you don't
assimilate, that you should have your visa or residence, your citizenship revoked.
So what is your plan as a person running for governor to demand that those who come into
our state assimilate? Do you have a plan? If you don't, then they're clueless.
Number two, do you understand or agree that any form of Islamic law is antithetical to our
form of government or constitution? That no application of Sharia should be allowed publicly?
Now, this is where we're missing it a little bit. And I think you and I talked about this on
the phone. You can't come out. We've got 66 members of Congress now that have formed this
Sharia-free caucus. That's remarkable because three years ago, you ran for office, you said
Sharia, you're done. You know, that's political suicide. So something on the positive is shifting.
The fact that we can even have these conversations now, and you've got people saying,
ban Sharia on the GOP side, that's a good thing. Here's the mistake they're making,
though. You can't ban all of Sharia because to ban Sharia is to ban Islam.
Now, by the way, I'm totally in favor of that. I think ban Islam from America.
But legally, with all these activist judges, it wouldn't last five seconds.
So what you have to do is, number one, you have to label Sharia as a theocratic form of governance.
They think that Sharia is just the religious things that Muslims do. No. Sharia is a theocratic
system where there's no separation. And what we're calling for is the banning of Sharia
publicly, public accommodation. If a Muslim wants to go and pray in their house, I can't stop them.
If a Muslim beats his wife in his house, we already have laws against that.
If a Muslim is going to commit an honor killing, we already have laws against that.
We just need to get rid of these Soros-based DAs that are letting the illegals and the Muslims
off the hook. What we need to do is stop any public accommodation. For example,
there should have been a massive lawsuit against the city of Minneapolis for allowing the Islamic
call of prayer. Why was there not a legal challenge to that? Because now that's public
accommodation of Sharia, and that's a supremacy. That prayer is a supremacy prayer. So what we
want to do is say, will you, do you understand that Sharia is antithetical, Islamic law is
antithetical, and number two, that it must be deemed a theocratic system and banned, that part of it.
And then number three, number three, do you pledge that as a Republican, you will not try to seek
the support of the Muslim community because they will lie to you because when they get to the
point where they start supporting Republicans as a community, like the Dearborn Michigan Muslims did
when they supported Trump, or when the Somali Muslims did here in Minneapolis when they supported
Trump, that means they've gone to the upper house. Because why was it before that they're all
leftist? Why is it before that the Muslims are supporting leftist causes? Why is Keith Ellison
here in Minnesota still backing abortion rights and LGBTQ and trans rights as a Muslim? That's
not consistent with this law. It's because he's still in the lower house and they lie and they
have no problem having us kill each ourselves off. You guys go ahead and mutilate your kids. You guys
go ahead and murder your babies in the womb. You guys go ahead and engage in homosexuality
so you can't produce babies. Meanwhile, we're having three, four, five, six, seven kids. And
we'll just take you over that way. And one other question. If they're going to become
governor, will you immediately label the Muslim brotherhood and care as a foreign
terrorist organization? That should be a GOP platform issue right now.
Instead of the head of Hamas in care, he is a senior advisor to our current governor. Jelani
Hussein sits on Waltz's advisory council. You got care on the governor's advisory,
it should be the other way around. And they got to go further than Texas.
Texas went this far. Florida's gone further. Florida legislatively, they're trying to back
DeSantis' executive order, which is what you need. There's a huge case right now in Texas,
because when Abbott declared care at FTO, foreign terrorist organization, care sued them.
Beautiful. Because now that led to disclosure. Now Paxton went against them and said,
okay, you claim you're not a terrorist organization not connected to the global
Muslim brotherhood, we want to see all your financials. We want to see all your travel
documents. We want to see all your leadership individuals and all their financials and all
their travel. And a judge agreed. And now care has to bring all this disclosure.
So it backfired against them. That's the kind of wisdom we need to attack their agenda.
But if any person running in the GOP, whether for state officers or for governor,
is not willing to say we're going to label the brotherhood as an FTO and their front groups,
including care, it's not worth the salt in my expression. They're not worth the lick of...
I don't know, whatever that expression is. Exactly. I would not support them one bit
because they are not going to have the backbone and then they're going to end up
actually going to those sources and say, oh, they're going to tell us what the Muslim
community is like. No, you don't need care to tell you what the Muslim community is like.
You need former Muslims to tell you what the Muslim community is like,
and those who've lived under it. So, but those three or four things are instrumental.
Assimilation, Sharia, understanding, Sharia, understanding that, again, great fodder,
you can't ban all of that, but we want to ban public accommodations, the theocratic system,
the aspect of the brotherhood and the FTO thing, and then do not seek out the support
of the Muslim community. Look, individual Muslims, individual Muslims, going back to your question,
who are not practicing, they may vote Republican, but I'm not going to get the support of the
Muslim community or the Somali community or the Muslim caucus or what. That's foolishness
and the GOP here in Minnesota celebrating Ramadan two months ago. That's foolishness.
That's the type of stuff that you got to get rid of that type of leadership if you're going to
turn the ship around here in the state at your Republican convention.
All right, one more time. Thank you to Pastor Shiran. Thank you guys. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Pastor Dale. As he's making his way back to his table where you can talk with
them some more, we're going to close with this word from Psalm chapter two.
Why do the nations rage and the people plot in vain? And the kings of the earth set themselves
and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against his Christ saying,
let us break their bands of thunder and cast away their cords from us.
He who sits in the heavens laughs. The Lord scoffs at them. Then he shall speak to them in his wrath
and in his fury he terrifies them. Yay, I have set my king upon Zion, my holy mountain. I will
declare the decree of the Lord. He has said to me, you are my son. This day I have begotten
you. Ask of me and I shall give the nations as your inheritance and the uttermost parts of the
earth for your possession. You, Jesus, you shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them
in pieces like a potter's vessel. Now therefore be wise, O earthly kings. Be admonished, O judges
of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son lest he be angry with
you and you perish in the way, for his wrath can flame up in a moment. Blessed are all those
who take refuge in the Lord. Amen and amen. God bless you. Good night.
