[Music]

So I just want to pray for us. Lord,

help us every day to be disciplined, to

read your word, to speak it out, to hear

ourselves.

There is a second half to his mission

and that he will not come as a suffering

servant but as a conquering king. He

will not come as a meek lamb but he will

come as a roaring lion. And when he

comes the second time it will not be to

die for our sins but it will be to judge

the world of their sins and to establish

his kingdom upon the earth.

[Music]

Welcome.

We want to begin our meeting this

morning.

As I was thinking about our meeting this

morning, I was reminded of the period of

time that the people of Israel are in

right now.

All of the people of Israel are right

now in a time of um saying prayers of

forgiveness.

And that goes through the month of up

until the day of atonement.

And this is a whole month of people

crying out to God for forgiveness and

repenting on behalf of themselves

personally and the nation of Israel.

And I used to pray this prayer in the

synagogue. So I want to share it with

you.

And the prayer goes like this. Lord of

forgiveness, examiner of hearts,

revealer of depths. You speak

righteousness. You're glorious in

wonders, eternal in comfort and

consolation. You remember the covenant

of our fathers. You know our innermost

parts. You are good and do good to all

living things. you know all hidden

matters and it goes on describing the

Lord.

Hallelujah.

because he is the one who knows our

innermost parts. He is the key to the

forgiveness of sins.

And we want to pray for the people of

Israel to receive that revelation right

now as they're crying out to God with

this prayer in the synagogues.

And that is our uh position, our job to

pray for that light to be revealed to

the people of Israel.

So let's read from Acts 4:12 and enter

into that prayer together.

[Music]

And it says there, there is no salvation

in any other, for there is no other name

given us under heaven by which man must

be saved. That's the name of Yeshua, the

Messiah.

Yeshua, Hamashiach.

So our father and our king, we thank you

and we declare there is none other but

Yeshua, the Messiah.

Yeshua.

We declare this morning the name of

Yeshua the Messiah.

We ask for forgiveness of sins today for

each and every person in the people of

Israel that don't know you.

Father, forgive us for forgive us for

how we have not acted according to your

will and according to your plan.

Father, we ask that during this time of

prayer for forgiveness up until day of

atonement that you will do miracles and

wonders.

Hallelujah.

and

the Lord and declare his power.

[Music]

paid the price by the blood of

Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah.

Oh, this new world.

Hallelujah.

You know, Peter asked the Lord, "How

many times do I have to forgive?" This

is connecting to what Yonas said. And

the Lord, he said, "Seven times." And he

said, "No, 7 * 70."

I don't know exactly if Peter

understood what he was saying, but in

Daniel chapter nine, what it

the time of the coming of the Lord,

it says 77s

are determined for your people and for

your holy city to finish the

transgression, to make an end of sins.

Hallelujah. That's that's Calvary.

That's Golgotaa.

That's why we have to forgive.

And and let's not forget also and thank

you, Aba, that all of the wrath of God

fell on your son. This was not just some

emotional

picture of love,

but this was the completion of all

things.

All of your wrath, all of your wrath

fell on your beloved one, your only

begotten, oh God, so that Lord, we could

forgive 70* seven. We could look at you

hanging on that cross, mired above all

men, unrecognizable,

and hear you say again and again,

forgive them for they don't know what

they're doing.

And Lord, none of us, Lord, none of us

can withhold forgiveness, Lord,

because you drank the full cup, Yeshua.

You drank the full cup.

And we want to say thank you. You drank

the full cup for Israel.

You drank the full cup for every one of

us individually. Lord, you drank the

full cup for your ecclesia. Lord, you

drank the full cup for Jews and Arabs,

for every nation under the sun.

And Lord, we just want to say thank you.

We want to bow.

Thank you that this forgiveness of 70* 7

cost you everything.

You were marred by the wrath and the

sin. Hallelujah.

Hallelujah. We thank you Aba.

Hallelujah. 70* 7

we will forgive Bashm Yeshua.

[Music]

No other name.

No other name.

[Music]

Only your name Yeshua

ready in our hearts and our mouths.

No other name be lifted high.

No other name but yours Yeshua.

No other word is worthy

of our hearts, our attention, our love.

[Applause]

No other name we lifted high.

No other name be lifted high.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

We can keep singing this song over and

over and over again.

Father in heaven, we lift you high. We

praise you. We exalt you.

Not everyone understands why we need to

do this.

[Music]

But I was reminded of the word of the

Lord which is powerful and authentic and

true for today.

[Music]

And that's us. That's each and every one

of us sitting here because it says in

John 7:31, "He who believes on me, as

the scripture has said, from his

innermost being will flow rivers of

living water.

[Music]

And brothers and sisters, that's what

those people who do not have Yeshua in

their lives are missing.

And it says in Romans chapter 3 that God

is one who justifies through faith those

who believe in him. He is just and the

justifier of the one who has faith in

Yeshua. So we need that faith

that we will walk both by faith in

Yeshua and according to his words, his

feel wants to remind us in the spirit

today even regarding forgiveness and

repentance.

[Music]

because we don't grasp the depth of true

forgiveness between God and us and

between us and other people

[Music]

and the greatest forgiveness that God

has given each and every one of us

forgiveness of our sins.

[Music]

So let's pray into that a little bit

more because I feel strongly in my heart

that we need to pray into this issue of

forgiveness for the body of Messiah all

over the world.

The body of Messiah is standing against

the largest enemy that opposes God which

is unforgiveness.

[Music]

Unforgiveness is a trap that leaves us

in bondage inside.

[Music]

So, Father in heaven, we declare

forgiveness over each one of us, over

our hearts, through our very DNA.

Help

us understand the power you have

forgiven. You have given us to forgive

even to forgive ourselves.

Give us the strength and the

understanding to forgive one another.

Father,

help us to forgive those who hurt us,

even from outside your body.

We want to live it out and have it be

real in our lives and understand it

before we go out.

Father, in our flesh we are weak, but

together with you we are strong.

Thank you for your grace,

for your forgiveness

in the name of Yeshua.

Amen.

Amen.

We want to move on to more prayers now.

So we'll open up the microphone

regarding forgiveness

in every circle that it touches.

We could dedicate a full day to going

into this subject.

But that's our job because God hears our

prayers.

But there's other directions and topics

of prayer that we want to cover today

also.

Because our warfare is not with uh

princip is not with flesh and blood but

with principalities and powers and the

rulers of the darkness of this world.

And today there are 60,000 reserve

soldiers being called in.

And if negotiations regarding the

hostages will not continue,

the war will continue and we are going

to move deeper into Gaza

which is a very difficult scenario.

Soldiers will have to give their lives.

Soldiers may be wounded. Helpless

[Music]

civilians and children in Gaza will be

hurt and die.

We don't know what is the right or wrong

answer.

But father we pray let your will be

done. Let your kingdom come on earth as

it is in heaven.

[Music]

And our warfare is not against people.

It's not against flesh and blood, but

it's spiritual.

So I want us to pray for protection over

the soldiers, over the security forces,

and over the innocent civilians.

and that the glory would all go to the

King of Kings who is fighting on our

behalf.

That the glory would go to God for the

miracles we are seeing in Syria.

For the miracles we have seen in Yemen.

For the miracles we have seen in

Lebanon.

for the miracle that we saw in Gaza with

the small group that tried to conquer a

military point.

God fights for us and he hears our

prayer.

Let's open our hearts and pray. Father

in heaven,

we invite you, Father,

and we call upon you,

and we stand in our place on the

spiritual front lines.

We declare your plan, Father.

We declare protection over your full

plan.

protection over all those who are acting

according to your plan.

[Music]

We pray that you would protect all the

security forces.

Bring them out in peace and bring them

back in peace.

Father, if it's not your will, close

every door that's not from you.

Father, we take our place and by your

authority given to us, we bind every

land of the enemy.

[Music]

Thank you for your grace and your

protection.

In the name of Yeshua.

Yes, Father, we want to pray into this

and not grow tired. Lord, it's hard to

after two years, so many waves of this

war and these operations in Gaza, but

Lord, we lift it up to you and we

continue to pray, Lord, the highest

prayer, which I believe what I see is

the highest prayer, 1 Timothy 2. Lord,

we're praying that you would change

Gaza. That there would be a power, a

rule, a Mishtar, as we say, in Gaza that

would be good for the gospel. You said

it's your desire that every man is saved

and come to the knowledge of the truth.

And Lord, we know that the doors have

been closed to the gospel since 2007.

And we pray for open doors, Lord, that

you would use the Israeli army, the IDF

to open those doors, Lord. that you to

to uh remove and destroy evil rule that

is against you and that is against the

gospel from Gaza. Lord, that you would

put a rule, a government in Gaza that

allows for the freedom of the gospel,

Lord, for those 2 million people, Lord,

who have suffered so many things in the

last two years and whose whose little

citystate has been totally destroyed.

Lord, we pray for righteousness. We pray

for goodness. We pray for our Arab

brothers and sisters of of evangelists

and pastors and missionaries and people

who are preparing to go in and to be

there and to minister to these people.

Lord, we pray for that they would have

freedom to do so. Freedom for the gospel

in Gaza, Lord. Bishm Yeshua. Amen.

Lord, I want to pray for grace. Your

word says, Lord, that where sin abounds,

grace does much more super abound. Lord,

even as as we sang about this river of

life, Lord, let the grace flow freely

from your throne like a mighty river to

Gaza, through Gaza, to Israel, Lord, to

all this region, oh God. Lord, none of

us deserve grace. You know that better

than anybody, Aba. But Lord, you gave us

grace while we were still enemies.

Enemies of the gospel, Lord. God, we're

asking for grace. No one deserves it.

We're asking for your name to be

glorified by the pouring out of your

grace, oh God. Hallelujah, God. Like a

river, like a river that everyone would

know that there's a God. There's a God

in this region, oh God, living full of

grace, kindness, mercy that triumphs

over judgment, oh God. Hallelujah. Open

the heavens, oh God. Open the heavens

and pour out your spirit. Pour out your

grace, oh God, abundantly, God.

Hallelujah. We thank you, Aba. Thank

you, Lord.

[Music]

Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Lord,

we pray for our soldiers. We pray for

the reservists for the millowim Lord. We

pray that those who are fighting for

Israel,

Lord will turn to you, the God of

Israel. They will turn to the rock of

Israel, Lord, that they will see that

you are their strength, that you are the

God who's made covenant with Israel.

Lord, I pray that there will be a a

ripple of turning to you throughout the

soldiers. Oh God, I pray for those who

are believers, Lord, to speak out and to

encourage those around them and to turn

their hearts to you, oh God.

Lord, I pray that that all Israel will

turn to you and Lord, and it will start

in the soldiers. It will start with

those who are on the front lines. It

will start to those who are defending

Israel and that they will proclaim

as the psalmist. Truly my soul silently

waits for God for him comes my

salvation. He only is my rock and my

salvation. He is my defense. I shall not

be greatly moved. Lord, I pray when the

soldiers are afraid, they will turn to

you. When they are discouraged, they

will turn to you. When they feel

hopeless, they will turn to you and they

will say, "You are my rock. You are my

salvation. You are the only hope, oh

God. And we put our trust in you and you

alone." Amen.

You are love.

You bring light to the darkness.

You give hope.

You restore

main message today, I just want to make

a little uh promo for everyone out there

especially uh we are holding our bianual

is that right? Semianual every two years

is which one? Bianual. Thank you. by

annual uh USA Tikon Global USA

conference next week on September 11th,

911 and 9:12 in Anaheim, California. And

uh so uh we won't have our local meeting

here next week. Most of our leadership

is going to be out there and there's

still some room at the Rock Church in

Anaheim where it's going to be held. So

if you're out there and especially in

Southern California and you can come,

come and join us. You can find

information on our website tunlobal.org

and uh look forward to seeing you there

and appreciate you all praying for us.

It's something uh real strategic time in

a lot of ways for for the ministry and

for America and uh we really um we

really enjoy being there with a lot of

our partners and friends and appreciate

you all praying for us.

Uh today I'm going to speak on a message

um that I'm calling his circumcision,

our circumcision. Okay? His

circumcision, our circumcision, and you

can guess what the message is about,

circumcision, right? Um, and I've just

been studying uh recently the book of

Colossians

and um these verses in chapter 2:es 11

and 12 kind of really grabbed my

attention and they read like this. In

him you were also circumcised with a

circumcision made without hands in the

removal of the body of the flesh by the

circumcision of Christ of Messiah having

been buried with him in baptism in in

which you were also raised up with him

through faith in the working of God who

raised him from the dead. So this this

phrase the circumcision of Messiah this

is the only place in the New Testament

of course and not in not in the

circumcision of Christ. This is the only

place you think wow what's he talking

about exactly? You see the parallel a

little parallel with the baptisms you

know death and life and all that. So I

want to kind of just dig into this. What

is he talking about this circumcision of

Christ? And I'm going to basically say

two things. We're going to end up with

two things. That one, it's I mean really

in context here, he's talking about the

circumcision of the heart and what

happens uh internally when we put our

faith in Yeshua when we're baptized.

This transformation that happens, this

exposure to God and to the Holy Spirit.

That's the main part. But also the

circumcision of Christ is his

circumcision. You know, Jesus Yeshua was

circumcised on the eighth day. uh just

like all Jewish children since the time

of Isaac. Okay. And so it's also a story

about his circumcision and what that

mean what that means for us. Okay. Now

I'm going to we're going to start and

spend some time on the chapter. We're

going to kind of go back to the the

Tanakh the foundation for the whole and

you want to know anything about

circumcision, why God instituted it,

what's it about? We go to Genesis 17.

That's the chapter the covenant of God

with Abraham when he

institutes or what's what's what's the

right word initiates or or makes this

covenant of circumcision. So let's go

there. And this this chapter I mean I've

been sort of meditating and on it for

the last 48 hours. I feel like I could

teach five to 10 lessons 30 minutes each

just on this chapter. It's so rich. It's

so important. It's so foundational to

biblical faith. Okay. So, we're going to

kind of go through that, then look at a

few of the other prophecies and then

come back to Colossians and the New

Testament. All right. Chapter 17.

Genesis chapter 17.

V. This is I'm we're just going to go by

verse by verse. There's so much

revelation, so much happening here. A

remember he's still called Ara here. Not

Abraham. He's a bentim

he's 99 years old.

So this is one of those places where the

verb in Hebrew, I mean most translations

appeared that Jehovah appeared. It's the

verb to see in the passive basically.

Okay. He was seen by, right? It's not

like in Genesis 15 just two chapters

before another important chapter it says

who he appeared makaz in a vision. Okay,

that's in chapter 15 here and in a few

other places

he saw okay not in a vision not in a

dream like you and me are seeing each

other. He saw Adonai Jehovah okay and

he's speaking with him. The next chapter

Genesis 18 we talked about this a few

weeks ago on the basis of Asher's book

who ate lunch with Abra with Abraham

also he up he comes walking and and

Abraham recognizes him that's why he

gets up and gets all excited and says

come my lord wash your feet and Sarah

you got we got to make lunch for him

because he sees the same

person in the next chapter it's really

clearly it's a person right but it's

Jehovah it's it's Yahweh It's it's

Adonai. All right. So that's the first

thing. The second thing is this is the

first place that the name of God to the

patriarchs appears. God says it's like

he's introducing us. Hi, my name is

What's his name? El Shadai. He says Ani

El Shadai.

It's the first time El Shadai appears.

So God is now sharing his name. Now,

it's interesting that in the same verse,

he's the text calls him Yhovah.

So, what was his name back then? If you

could get in a time machine and go back

and say to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,

the God who you believe in, the God who

you're speaking with, the God who you're

in covenant with, what's his name? What

would they have said?

Elshai.

Elai.

Elshai. And they would not have said

because they didn't know the name. This

Exodus chapter 63 incredibly important

verse when God Jehovah is now revealing

himself to Moses after the burning bush

and his name and he says by this name

Yode Vave he says to Moses Exodus 6:3 I

did not make myself known to the

patriarchs Abraham Isaac it's very clear

Abraham Isaac and Jacob Ellah except I

instead I made myself known as Elshadai

that was my name

So why is Jehovah here in the text?

Why is yaf actually starts in Genesis 2

if they didn't know the name?

Well, let's remember who wrote the book.

Abraham didn't write it. Moses did.

Moses now knows looking back through the

revelation of Sinai and of Jehovah who

that Elshadai is. It's the same God, but

he's got a new upgraded name because

there's a new upgraded revelation

happening at Mount Si. Why is that

important for us? Because that's exactly

what we do as New Testament believers.

We look back and we go, El Shadai

Yhovah, that guy who was eating and

talking with the patriarchs, that's

Yeshua. That's his name which is

upgraded now. That is the name which is

above every other name. Right? And so

it's part of the way that God works in

covenant history at each major stage.

And there are really three. The the

patriarchs si and then the new covenant.

At each stage the same thing happens.

There's new laws. Laws are changed. Laws

are upgraded. There's a new name

a more clear distinct name. um and

events things happen covenantally that

God has promised in the previous one but

now they come to pass right so that's a

little bit about the name Elshai next

verse number two

and I'm going to make and give my

covenant between us and I'm going to

increase you hugely okay and It's

interesting that in chapter 15, you

know, as you read through the Abraham

story, it starts in in in Genesis 12.

In Genesis 12, there's no covenant, just

a word, a promise from God. In Genesis

15, when uh he takes him outside, look

at the stars, and so shall your

descendants be.

And and Abraham believed in God, and it

was credit credited to him as

righteousness. And then there's this

covenant ceremony. A Abraham slaughters

the animals and the the the oven, this

this furnace goes through and and in

verse in chapter 15, it starts and it

says, "And Adonai made a covenant with

Abraham." That's how that's the start of

the covenant. But then you get here and

now he's it's it's not just God, I'm

making a covenant with you. It's

it's God. It's like he's coming further

down and further in cooperation.

It's not just God unilaterally making a

covenant. It's now we're doing something

together. Okay? And you see the same

language repeated in uh verse 7. Um

and so he fell on his face and God spoke

with him saying verse four. Now, verse

four is a tricky little verse,

especially if you read Hebrew. If you're

reading in translation, the translators

took care of it of something that they

had to take care of. In Hebrew,

what's the problem, Hebrew speakers, in

the first part of the of the verse?

No. What's the subject of the There's

two sentences, right? First one is

The first one is most English saying,

"Behold, my covenant is with you."

That's a sentence semicolon. And you

shall be the father of many nations.

What's the problem in Hebrew?

Uh there's well no there's no semi

there's two subjects

ani

which is the subject of the sentence.

Now in Hebrew we have a problem which is

in in biblical Hebrew and all the way

until today in a simple uh sentence of

existence I guess you call it you don't

need the verb to be in Hebrew right zev

right in Hebrew that literally is this

computer but it's a full sentence that

we would translate this is a computer so

in English or Greek and other like you

need this verb to be right an Ariel

Nemo, I am Ariel. But there's no am,

right? So, you can't tell that the verb

and its placement and its person, all

that stuff would help you helps you know

a little bit more about the subject. But

here you have two subjects, ani or

watch, I I'll prove it to you. Take off

the ani.

Perfect sentence. Makes perfect sense.

Perfect sense. If you take the eye off,

it just says my covenant. That's the

subject is with you. You shall be a

covenant. Or the opposite. Take off my

covenant.

I behold I'm with you. I'm with you. It

could work both ways. I think this is a

funny sentence for these two subjects

because what's happening here is this

first hint. Remember this is Yeshua

speaking

to Abraham

and he's saying this covenant between us

is me. I am the essence of our covenant.

In other words, yes, it's your son

Isaac, but I am covenanting with you to

become one of your descendants. I'm

enter my DNA, your DNA. We're entering

into not just a covenant.

We're becoming one family.

I my covenant. It's the same thing. I am

my covenant with you. Okay? Now, he

couldn't explain that because it's we we

couldn't understand it until Yeshua

comes 2,000 years later, right? But

there it is. This hint in verse four.

Amazing. Um verse five.

from.

And this is where he adds the letter he

to Aram's name and he becomes Abraham.

It's a play on words. The word in Hebrew

for you will become the father of many

is Hamon. And so it's the Ha is inserted

into his name. Now later and us reading

it now there's another part of the play

on words which is the hey is the letter

of Jehovah yud hey he vav there it's two

letters or two of the four letters in

his name are he and so he also gets the

hey inserted in his name but he didn't

know that then because he didn't know

the name right but we now know this

promise this amazing promise that Abra

Ara is going to become the father of a

huge huge number of people of every

tribe tongue and nation. Um let's jump

to

um

here it is verse 8. And I want you to to

notice this here. I've been doing a

study I'm probably going to share a

message when we're in California maybe

called the Zionist gospel or something

like that. But to see how to that the

promise of the land

of Israel to Abraham

and to him be a father the father of

many nations into blessing the whole

earth it's there constantly

every place where God makes this

covenant with Abraham he mentions

immediately it's the same in Genesis 15

right everyone we know and he he

believed in God and it was credited to

credited to him as righteousness.

Everyone knows that from the new

covenant from Romans, right? The next

verse in uh verse 7 in Genesis 15 is and

I'm going to give you the land of

Canaan. It's right there all the time.

Right next to the gospel is the promise

of the land. Very very important for our

day.

Why? because there's a lot of

controversy about who was this land and

who does it belong to and d

um

you know the what's out there in the

wider world these days of uh the

controversy about the land uh among the

the woke sort of left wing and the

Muslims have attached themselves to it.

The Jewish people are colonial settlers

who have conquered the land from the

original people, namely the

Palestinians, right? They're white

European. They came under the British

and it's this terrible colonial thing

which is just as bad as the British in

India or the Americans or the Spanish in

the New World, whatever. Okay, that's

what they're saying, right? They're

saying the the so the Palestinians are

the indigenous people and the Jews and

know Christians. What are you talking

about? Before the it was the Muslims who

came here. When did the Arabs came? They

came with Islam. That was 13,400 years

ago. When Islam conquered the Middle

East, they're the they're the colonial

settlers, right? Because before that,

you have all this archaeology in the

Bible. The Jews were in dig. We were

here. We have a thousand years here,

right?

Well, right. Sort of. You know why? I

got news for you. Neither we the

Israelis or the Palestinians or the

indigenous people here

right here in the covenant. He says,

"I'm giving you the land of whom?" Of

Canaan.

Oh, it's I'm sorry. It's in in Genesis

15. He says, "The land of the of all the

itites." You know, the the Keszites and

the Jebusites and the and all those

itites.

They're Canaanite tribes. the seven

Canaanite tribes. Okay, they're I don't

know if there was anybody here before

them, but as far as we know, the

Canaanites

are the indigenous people. And you're

right, boy, did we conquer them and take

over. Anybody read the book of Joshua?

Talk about colonial settlers.

So, what it comes down to is not who was

your first entity. comes down to God and

covenant.

Uh-oh.

So, the secular arguments only go so

far.

Ultimately, you've got we got to say,

God, this is by covenant to Abraham.

It's the same covenant as salvation as

fa as salvation by faith. Genesis 15:6

is followed by Genesis 15:7. It's all

like this. And you can't separate them.

And if you try to pull them apart,

you're going to end up with some kind of

weird biblical

gospel that may not be a gospel. All

right, so that's uh about that verse and

about the land. Okay, the next one, and

this is what we're talking about today.

Finally, you get to verse 12. What is

this covenant? What's going to be the

sign of it? What do they have to do?

What's the obedience from Abraham's

part? It's verse 12.

and you shall circumcise every male at 8

days. Okay, this is the covenant of

circumcision. Did you know that in the

ancient world there were different

tribes and peoples and still are today

who circumcise male circumcision?

Uh some of the Muslim tribes uh still do

it today. archaeology, wall paintings.

There's all kinds of evidence. There

were tribes in Africa, uh, Asia, the

Pacific Islands who practiced male

circumcision at this time, but they did

it almost exclusively at or around

puberty. Okay? It's interesting, by the

way, that Ishmael is 13 years old here.

Okay? And he gets circumcised along with

Abraham and the whole tribe. All right?

But he's a better. So, so these tribes,

it was like part of a coming of age

thing. Some say it was parallel to, you

know, the beginning of the menstrual

cycle for the girls. And there's all

these explanations, but that's where

when it was done. Only the Jewish

people, the Hebrews from this time

forward

have circumcised an infants at 8 days

old. That's the circumcision

covenant. And so really the first Jew

according to the covenant is not

Abraham.

It's Isaac. Isaac is the first one who

is circumcised according to the the the

conditions of this covenant at at 8 days

old. Okay. And it's still unique today.

Yeah. Obviously it's a very different

experience and a very different thing to

circumcise an 8-year-old as compared to

a 13year-old or Abraham who circumcises

himself here who's 99 years old.

Um,

someone was saying to me, "Yeah, it's

99." I said, "Yeah, well, ask." I said,

"Ask me when I get there." You know, I'm

58. Um, anyway, we won't talk about what

happens to men in later age or whatever.

Okay. Um,

so he's this covenant of circumcision

becomes the foundation

for the whole thing. Everything we've

just read about this all, it's all in

the same chapter. It's all in the same

discussion, the name of God, the seeing

Yeshua, Yeshua promising, hinting that

he's going to be coming into Abraham's

family. All right? In order to make

Abraham to be this father of many

nations. This one man, this Iraqi guy

from 4,000 years ago, becomes the father

of the faith and the father of many

nations. And it requires the obedience

of his descendants to circumcise their

children on the eighth day. And we've

been doing it for a long time. For us

here in Israel in Jewish, it's a very

normal part. We just had a birth of a a

baby boy in our congregation. In a few

days, we'll have the the circumcision

ceremony. It's a it's a ceremony and you

get food and everybody comes and there's

the the mohil is the name of the the

rabbi guy who who who does this. That's

his his business. It is a business. They

get paid pretty good. U some it's like a

required donation, you know, and all

that. Um you I was thinking about our uh

our third son Lvie who just celebrated

his 10th birthday uh was born to us in

China when we were in Shian China for 2

years. Now you you can't find a moel in

Shian, China. All right. It turns out

there's only one at that time. He lived

in Hong Kong and he served the Jewish

communities all over East Asia because

there's just not that many Jews, you

know, to support full-time moes. Uh what

was his name? Do you remember? Geon

Geono. That was the Gimmo. Anyway, he

came up and we invited and we were uh

going to a church there. our dear uh

dear brother Pastor Ga who we continue

to pray for uh because of his situation.

Um and so you know all the Christians so

it was like 30 Christians Chinese

Christians and I also invited my uh

teacher the the director of the Chinese

language department at the university

where I was studying. She's not a

Christian. Okay, but I invited her and

she didn't know anything about

circumcision. Like she didn't read the

Bible. The Christians were all excited

because they had never seen it, right?

And they've been reading about it and

they're like, "Wow, you know, and uh

wow." So uh Var's father also came from

Israel was the Sanduck and Held in it.

And boy, she I can't remember her name.

Professor in the middle of the thing,

she turned white

and she's like I think she was felt like

she was going to throw up and she ran

out of the road. She said, "What do you

do? Why are they doing this?" you know,

and all the Christians were like, you

know, we're kind of laughing. Um, but

we've been doing it. We've been doing it

everywhere. Everywhere where Jewish

people are, that's been the custom.

Okay. So, let's go back. Well, no,

before we go back to the New Testament,

let's just look quickly at a few

prophecies from Deuteronomy and from

Jeremiah. Okay. In Deuteronomy 10, uh,

verse 12, it says, "You must circumcise

your hearts." This is the first time

that expression, right? God's taking the

circumcision. Yeah, it's good that

you're circumcised. That's part of the

covenant. Abraham, obedience. Amen. But

it's much more than that. There's a

circumcision

of the heart. Deuteronomy 30 6 God

promises. Now, it's not it's not a

command or a warning, but a promise. He

says, "I will circumcise your hearts."

It's interesting in Deuteronomy 30, the

context is when the Jewish people have

been scattered and then brought back to

the land of Israel. He says,"I will

circumcise your hearts." Just as in

Ezekiel chapters 11 and 36, he says,

especially chapter 36, it's in the

context of a return, a major return of

the of the exile, Jewish exiles to the

land of Israel. And Ezekiel through

through Ezekiel, God promises to remove

the heart of stone. It's similar and to

give a heart of flesh, right? Um, so

that helps us to pray like we were

praying this morning and believe that

God didn't just bring the Jewish people

back here for war and to wait for the

Messiah. He brought us back here to pour

out his spirit to take the heart of

stone out of our and to circumcise our

hearts. Hallelujah. And then we come to

the new test new testament and it's

fulfilled in

Luke 2:21. It's just one verse. It just

says, "And according to the custom and

according to the commandment, Joseph and

Mary brought Jesus up to Jerusalem. They

were here and he was circumcised." Okay?

And that's when they announced his name.

By the way, for all those out there who

don't know, with Jewish boys, you don't

announce the name until the circumcision

ceremony. And that's what it says also

in Luke that that's when they declared

his name is Yeshua or Yahushua, just

like the angel had said to them. Um so

then we have what this circumcision

is his circumcision. Yeshua had to be in

this line. He was the one we saw in

chapter 7 who's speaking who's appearing

chapter 18 who's eating with with

Abraham and he's beginning this plan

that it's not just a I'm God making a

covenant with man like this. It's Ben

together between us, we're going to

cooperate to the degree that I'm I the

son of man is going to become a Jewish

baby that has to be circumcised on the

eighth day. Okay? And he all of that is

to fulfill and to provide this anchor

for our faith so that we know who the

Messiah is and that we know the truth

and the gospel that go that went out

from here to every tribe, tongue and

nation. And many people are here from

those tribes, tongue and nations to make

Abraham your father as well. Amen. And

uh

there's there's I mean the verses about

what this means that the the

circumcision of the heart. Just going to

read a few of them. Um Romans

uh 6:es 6-7. Knowing this that our old

self was crucified with him. We saw this

in Colossians. It's parallel to baptism.

It's parallel to the crucifixion. In

order that our body of sin might be done

away with so that we would no longer be

slaves to sin. For he who has died is

freed from sin. This picture of the

circumcision of the heart is a removal,

a removal of this fleshly old man,

right? To expose our fresh our heart to

God and allow us and empower us to walk

in the light as children of God and not

submit to sin anymore. Amen.

Romans 2:29 he but he is a Jew who is

one inwardly and circumcision is that

which is of the heart by the spirit not

by the letter and his praise is not from

men but from God now in the next verse

Paul says so what is am I saying that

physical circumcision is now useless he

says no no no that's not what I mean he

said there's many of it's good thing

it's the covenant with Abraham it's good

to be a Jew

primarily he says because to them we're

committed the oracles of God. Yeah. So,

in in closing, just thinking about how

God has set this up and why it's so

important what we read in Colossians,

what we read in Ephesians and Galatians,

how more than anybody else, it was the

Apostle Paul, and I write about a lot

about this in my book, One New Man.

He took this in stand that the Gentiles

not just don't need to be circumcises,

they must not be circumcised. They

should not be circumcised.

And it's easy for us today, oh because

we have those these writings. But back

then it was the the most natural thing

and logical thing was that all of these

new believers, Gentiles who are coming

in and being grafted in, whatever you

want to call it, believing in the God of

Israel, converting to faith in the God

of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and for

them to join the covenant just like

Abraham did. You know, we say, "Oh, but

like Paul says in Galatians, but first

was Genesis 15:6 that first was faith."

Amen. Okay.

Right? And he believed in Jehovah and it

was credited to him as righteousness. So

it's by faith. Okay. But two chapters

later, God says, "That's right. Faith is

we're starting now. We're going to make

a covenant together." And your response

is circumcision.

So when people when teachers came to the

Galatian church, let's say after Paul

had left and they began to teach that,

it made perfect sense. Are you with me?

It made perfect sense that the Gentiles

should be should be not just circumcised

that they should keep the Sabbath. They

should eat not they should eat kosher

food and basically convert to Judaism

and be Jews. But the revelation that

Paul had was said no no no God has a

plan for every tribe, tongue and nation

by faith by the circumcision of the

heart circ. It's not circumcision or

uncircumcision that matters. what

matters is a pure heart faith and

walking in the in the true holy

commandments of God. Okay? And how

important this is. So it's, you know,

some there's a lot of confusion today.

It's not just that you shouldn't or you

don't have to be. It's no, you shouldn't

be because God doesn't want God made

this this people Abraham, Isaac, and

Jacob, the Jewish people. and he's got a

plan and he brought Yeshua came into our

DNA to could come and be the the

blessing to the whole world that he

promised to Abraham and that and that's

what he wants for the Jewish people. He

doesn't want that for other people. He

has other he has a plan to bring us all

together. Every tribe, tongue and

nation, the Chinese as the Chinese, the

Koreans as the Koreans. You know, I look

at the I mean, the Korean I was with a

Korean group yesterday talking the

Korean revival in 1907 which really

began the the big outpouring in what we

see today and you have millions of

Korean Christians and missionaries.

Imagine if that wrong gospel, the

circumcision gospel had had carried the

day, okay, that you'd have tens of

millions of Koreans who basically can

become Jews.

What would that look like? Would they

want to all live here? There's a 100

million Chinese Christians for them to

all be c of course the men to be

circumcised, right? And no, no, God says

no, we didn't want that. Abraham is the

father of the circumcised and the

uncircumcised by faith. And together we

come together and we become the family

of God. And that's his plan. Amen. Let's

pray. Father, we thank you for your

word. We thank you for these the oracles

of God in that you did in indeed commit

to our people that Moses first wrote

down these stories, these chapters from

Genesis, Lord, with one man 4,000 years

ago.

You decided to change the world. You

decided to come into this world, into

the DNA of a real family, a real people

because your son is a person.

But we thank you that he is bringing and

making not just the Jews but people from

every tribe, tongue and nation to be a

people of Abraham. And Lord, we pray

over the struggle that we have over the

true Abrahamic faith in the Middle East

and our and our conflict and our

controversy with Islam and the lies that

have that that have penetrated so many

people. Lord, we were praying earlier

and we just prayed to break that

spiritual stronghold of the wrong

Abrahamic faith over the peoples of the

Middle East.

And Lord, we thank you that he is you

said you honored Abraham so much and his

faith to make him to be the father of us

all.

We thank you, God,

Bashem Yeshua. Amen. Amen. Any uh

comments? We got a microphone.

Yeah, go ahead.

Um two things. Um,

one is when you mentioned the land. Um,

I've always felt that Israel is a model

of the first model of people, you know,

who are called to take a piece of land

on

covenanted

covenant to take a piece of land. But I

I I feel like it's kind of intimated in

Genesis 9 and 10 when he names the

nations

and and then he also says, you know,

boundaries were given according to the

sons of of Noah of of Noah of of of no,

the Ben Israel, the the sons of

he says that in uh yeah, Exodus 1.

Exodus 1. But he also he

sorry, Deuteronomy 32.

Deuteronomy 32. But Paul Shaul, he also

um reiterates it in Acts when he says

boundaries

in Athens

or in Athens. So I've always felt that

it's Israel has to take their land. Um

it's the model for taking back the whole

planet, all the nations actually. Um

the model, it's the

it's the

precedent legal precedent.

The legal precedent

for God taking possession.

Yeah. Because you know when I look at

the sons of Noah I see you know the sons

of um uh yafet yeafett is yavan which is

Greece and then you see Greece kafis

kitim and you see that there really is a

there's no nation without land

there's no such thing

there's no such thing uh

or as a there's no as a people without a

land

there's no such thing god place places a

people on a piece of his planet and he

says now steward this. Um so that's I I

just really feel that this really needs

to be expressed globally. It's very

important for other nations as well to

lay hold of their their territory for

God. Um, the other thing I wanted to say

was a lot of people say, well, you know,

um, I've heard this said Ishmael is, you

know, was the first, uh, was was

circumcised before Isaac. But he wasn't

circumcised according to covenant

of the eighth day.

Of the eighth day, right?

And that's that's very very significant,

I think.

Okay, just those two things I wanted to

say.

Yeah. in one man one in my book one new

man I talk a lot about Genesis 10 and

the nations and the plan that how God

established each each person each people

in their land go ahead on the subject of

the circumcision um there's a unusual

scripture in Exodus 4 when Moses is

going to Egypt and along the way the

Lord seeks to kill him

and listen to your wife

then his wife steps in and circumcises

him and I just wanted to hear your

comments anything related related to

your topic today about why why the Lord

was seeking to kill him and um yeah your

thoughts.

What do you think?

What do I think? I think that um because

the covenant was established with

Abraham

and he's moving forward to enter into

the next stage of um God's revelation

meaning Mount Si that he can't move

forward without having the foundation of

what was already established through

Abraham. It's really serious

especially for a leader and also by the

way shows that what we've

since the second third centuries when

the rabbi shifted Jewishness to the

mother it's not from the Bible

it was from his father because she's not

Jewish tipur right she's the daughter of

Jethro medianite yeah I agree that's it

it's it's it the this is What what I

don't know how if I said it well enough

or how it came across but we there

in Christianity there's been a tend a

tendency to extract okay so you say all

right well the New Testament points to

Genesis 15:6

he believed in God and it's his faith

and it's all by faith that's it right so

you don't really need all that old

testament stuff and you don't even need

half of the New Testament right it's

just believe in the gospel, faith,

faith, faith. And that's true, but it's

an extraction.

And what happens when you extract too

much, you God, for whatever reason,

decided to put all this together in like

like a a ball of wool or something, you

know, the the the land, the

circumcision,

uh the covenant, you know, all of these

things. It's all it all goes together.

That's why I've been just studying this

and I I said I'm going to share this

message and I'll probably call it the

Zionist gospel just to kind of wake

people up a little bit. Zionism is such

a bad word out there in California. Um

not at the church we're going to, but

outside

uh fortunately we have four four or six

policemen who are going to be standing

watch around our conference because it's

California these days. It's America. um

and uh that um he puts the the promise

of the land is right there. Every good

New Testament, New Covenant gospel

spiritual verse that you want to take

from Genesis or from some or Jeremiah.

Jeremiah 31, the new covenant there.

Read Jeremiah 31 starts with as long as

the stars are in heaven and the sun

rises I this people is going to remain a

people before me. You know, it's all

it's all right there. So, we're saying

be be careful about how you extract

things cuz you might mess up the whole

ball. You know, God put it together.

Would God, what does it we say at the

mar about their couples?

Would God join together? Don't separate

them. Yeah. Go ahead.

I'm a woman. Obvious uh obviously.

So for circumcision for me it's uh very

easy because uh I couldn't do it uh

physically and I

of course I said okay I can do it

spiritually have second second session

um so about the covenant um I suddenly

have an idea I wanted to ask you men

because the covenant is about marriage

about the like the the church uh Christ

with the the bride.

Um so I wanted to just

know your man's feeling about as a bride

married to

just kind of the opposite.

Yes. The opposite. How do you feel?

So just like you have trouble relating

to circumcision,

we have trouble relating to being the

bride.

Yes. So I I I wanted to have a better

understanding, right? Because uh Okay.

And now I'm get getting ready to be

holy. Uh to be the the bride as the the

virgin to get the um the lamb the oil

get ready to marry to Jesus Christ and

also the church get ready to marry to

with uh w with uh with Jesus Christ as

well. And then uh now I have difficulty

to to understand on the opposite how you

men feel as a bride.

All right men come on line up. It's all

right. Well, I would say it's first of

all, it's easier for us, I think, cuz I

can just put on a white dress and a veil

or something. Sort of pretend. Uh, just

kidding. We don't do that. Um,

well, I think it it just points to how

in the beginning when God made us in his

image, singular, he made them plural in

his image, male and female. And so, from

the beginning, God has always it's we

we're together,

right? He's a it's a family. Abraham is

circumcised. But then there's the

there's also the promise to Sarah here.

I didn't get into that. It's interesting

to think about that he had to be

circumcised before

the act which finally brought Isaac into

the world. I didn't mention that today.

Interesting, right? Um but it's

together. It's him and Sarah together.

Um and on this side it's the males who

represent the tribe just as Adam

represents

that humankind, you know, uh so he has

the covenant, but like you said, the the

marriage, the bride, you know, it's not

that we're individually brides. We are

together the bride of Christ. And so

it's something that we we need, we men

need you women to help us in worship and

in intimacy, in bridal intimacy with

Jesus. You bring that to us. I'm not

really sure how we bring circumcision to

you all, but it's but it's a different

thing, but the circumcision of the heart

I think is maybe a little more universal

and easy for all of us like you said at

the beginning. So, I don't know. Anybody

else go? Hey, men, come on. Stand up.

You're a doctor. Come on. Tell us tell

us about circumcision.

Well, I have a question

and the heart. He's a heart doctor.

I have a question for you regarding the

covenant.

But wait, wait. I want one other guy to

speak, not just me, about her.

I have no response.

You have no words. All right. All right.

Someone else after him.

It says that the covenant is established

through the circumcision of the males.

But what does that mean? What what is

your theological impression with regard

to the other 50% of people who aren't

being circumcised,

the women?

Okay. Well, it goes back to what I just

said. God's covenant

is with Abraham, but it's with his

family. It's with him and Sarah.

Okay? And so,

I don't know how graphic I mean,

obviously, God chose to put the mark on

a certain part of the male body that has

a lot to do with the interaction with

the other 50%, especially when it comes

to family and children. Right. That was

I said that diplomatically, didn't I?

Very good. Okay. Thank you. Wait. Um,

you can keep that on the video maybe.

Anyway, u uh so it's all I don't see it

as a it's not I mean it's a tribal

thing. It's a family thing. Okay. Uh so

I don't see the the problem um you know

the the Jewish women are marrying the

the circumcised male and bringing the

Jewish children in or the Hebrew

children into the world. No. Um so you

know by the way that's what happened.

Why today I don't if I spoke about this

here today in Judaism legally all kinds

of ramifications for us with aliyah and

things like that Judaism is from the

mother. When did that come about?

Because you look in the Bible all the

genealogies

uh you know the story of uh Ruth and

Boaz you know she leaves her she she

joins the that's how it was for most of

history. The woman leaves her family and

her identity, her tribe and marries into

the identity of the man and that's the

children take his like still today in

most of our societies the children you

know woman uses the surname the family

name of her husband and the children

take the the name they're in his tribe

not hers right uh that's how it was what

happened was

the first Jewish rebellion in 70 and

then the second one Barba which was even

worse in terms of the number of of of

deaths. In the 2 century, 1336

was this major rebellion again by the

Jews against the Romans. The Romans

brought in the big guns. They say,

historians think probably 800,000

people were killed, mostly men, Jewish

men. Okay? And the women were taken as

slaves

um to Rome. And it's from that time more

or less that you start to see in

rabbitic literature this idea of

Jewishness coming from the woman. Do you

get it? There's a lot of rape. Jewish

women are slave. There's no the number

of Jewish men is is gone like this.

Well, how are we going to preserve the

Jewish people? You can you know who you

know also you you know who the mother is

most of the time, right? But you may not

know who the father is or the father may

be dead. Right? So if Jewishness is only

through the father, we're in big trouble

basically. And it's from that time that

we they started to reckon Jewish

Jewishness from the mother. It was a

practical way to keep the Jewish people

alive. So is that did that help you? I

mean and and by the way listen I mean

the new covenant but the new covenant is

the circumcision of the heart which is

for everybody. That's clear right?

That's not a problem. Go ahead. also

covenant it's it's never never about

myself it's not a personal things my

covenant with Ariel like it's our

children like it's there's children

there's family also thinking about our

covenant with this land it's not about

me it's not about also it's not al about

Israel it's what we doing out of it like

let's say about this uh ulam This

hall

home we as Don Global we bought this

place if we bought this place just for

ourself for our team what is it for it's

it's it's because we want to host the

people because we have a purpose also

our family it's not just about ourself

we

we have a calling as a family

how like we the the idea Yeah. If what

we doing out of it like are we making

people feel home? We've we we minister

to people. We

This land is not about just us and

it's not center about the Jewish people.

It's a center about God's heart

and his family. And if we not have it

to make people home,

it's it's it doesn't

fulfill its purpose.

Good job. Yeah. And well, one thing I

just want to just say that's what do we

see in in Genesis, the story of Abraham.

God's covenant is personal with him, but

it's for the entire world. It's for the

nations. I'm going to bless every

nation. You're going to be the father of

millions of people. So yeah, that's how

God works.

[Music]

All right, last word and we got a

wanted to say something about what um

just in answer to this male female

thing. Um just I think it simplifies it

just to say that um they were one male

and female before they were two. And I

think God still honors that, you know,

because in the new covenant the

Pharisees came to Yeshua and said, "What

do you think of divorce?" And they were

trying to trick him. And he and he says,

"Well, it was not like this from the

beginning." And I I really believe that

he meant that holy act of creation of

Adam with the woman inside. So I think

he honors and and still glorifies that

that whole act of the oneness of before

there were two. And that's why divorce

is such an abomination to the Lord in

most cases, right?
