James Cadiz
But the problem is all these people that want to speak authoritatively about what happened in Israel, many of them won't be able to name even a single party beyond the lahood. They don't even know how the parliament works.
- [00:19]
Jack
This is one of the things, James, that concerns me. Islam is a geopolitical, theocratic umbrella that covers not just religion. It's all of these other things that go down to the very nth of your existence.

Jack
Hey, we want to welcome you to the podcast. And we have a great guest with us.
- [01:08]
James Cadiz
An old friend.
- [01:09]
Jack
An old friend, but not only an old friend, but a contemporary warrior, which I love. Pastor James Cadiz, pastors Calvary Chapel, Signal Hill in Long Beach, California. Not far from here, actually. He's doing an amazing job. I love this guy. Always standing for the truth. I gotta tell you, James, you're precious to me because my wife loves you, because you're always defending me in the media square. I never get involved. I'll post something and walk away. And apparently when I post something, sometimes there's like a mushroom cloud.
- [01:42]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah.
- [01:43]
Jack
And I walk away and everybody's hair is on fire. And then. And James Cadiz comes along and says, hey, listen, I know Jack, and he's not a woman.
- [01:53]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah, no, I have a lot of fun with that. And I will tell you what, look, I have to say this because, you know, technically I'm not a gen zer, but I am technically like the younger generation.
- [02:02]
Jack
Yeah, you are.
- [02:03]
James Cadiz
And the one thing I will tell you is that I have an immense amount of respect for you. I really, truly believe this, and I don't mind it. Going on the record, you're one of the last of the Mohicans, for lack of a better term. I think you're the real deal. I love how God has made you. I love the fact that you can get out there and not care about what anybody thinks.
- [02:21]
Jack
Well, we can't do it. We can't do that. That's not what we're cut out to do. Amen. Egyptian, yes.
- [02:29]
James Cadiz
But born.
- [02:30]
Jack
First generation. Born us.
- [02:32]
James Cadiz
Yeah. So my mom and my dad are both born and raised in Egypt. My grandfather, who was my father's father, was a pastor in Egypt.
- [02:42]
Jack
That's normally how it works, right?
- [02:42]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I have to create the delineation so that you understand what I'm talking about. You'll get it. The father who's on my dad's side. My dad's father was a pastor in Egypt for 65 years.
- [02:54]
Jack
Wow.
- [02:54]
James Cadiz
Presbyterian minister. One of the most famous pastors in Egypt. All 65 years of his life, every single day that he was in ministry, all 65 years he was in ministry, he prayed that someone from his bloodline would become a pastor. Right around the time he passed away here in the United States, I got involved in ministry. My other grandfather, who's my mom's father, was a pastor in Egypt for 35 years. He was a Baptist minister. Okay. So I come from a very rich heritage of godly people. My mom was a missionary in Yemen and Gaza. That's why I know quite a bit based on what my mom's stories are about. Everything going on in the southern portion of the Arabian Peninsula, Egypt, all over the Middle East. It's like I was raised with stories about all of that because it's my heritage. So the language also was. It was the second language. We spoke Arabic. And so when I was in Bible college and we learned Bible languages, that wasn't very difficult because it came natural, was part of a sort of par for the course. So, yeah, a very, very rich heritage. And it all came from. And by the way, my grandfather loved Israel. And as a matter of fact, during the 73 and 67 war, he wouldn't allow my dad or any of his. Any of his siblings to listen to Egyptian radio. She said, you're not allowed to listen to Egyptian radio. They're lying about Israel. Yeah, they're lying about Israel. Listen to Israeli radio if you want to know the truth about what's happening.
- [04:18]
Jack
Wow.
- [04:18]
James Cadiz
No joke. This is why they're in the Sinai.
- [04:21]
Jack
That's incredible.
- [04:21]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [04:23]
Jack
That is awesome. Yeah, absolutely.
- [04:25]
James Cadiz
So I have a pretty rich heritage, by God's grace.
- [04:27]
Jack
I didn't realize that. Yeah, that's amazing. So with all this going on in the world, let's just dive in on this as you and I sit here right now, there are tens of thousands of Marines and airmen and Navy personnel. And on and on the list goes. And we've got over now over 1/3 of the US military might. It makes me a little nervous, by the way, we've got that 1/3 plus might either in the Mediterranean, which has the choke point of the Gulf, or the point of Gibraltar.
- [05:06]
James Cadiz
Yep, right, Yep.
- [05:07]
Jack
And then the other half of that is in the Arabian area. Most specifically, they've already passed in through predominantly the Strait of Hormuz.
- [05:21]
James Cadiz
Yes, that's right.
- [05:21]
Jack
In other words, we've got a massive contingency of US military might, the best of the best aircraft there en masse. But I'm really nervous, James, about those choke points. We may be successful in dealing with whatever, but we got to get out of those choke points. Which is, which is, it's got, you know, undersea mines, position. There's all kinds of problems. Now we hear that China has brought in this, this rocket that flies supersonic, that you can launch it from, from a three man crew. All these kinds of things. All that said, here we are on the American side, our nation is talking about geopolitical issues and this war. But Islam, the death cult that it is, and the Shia, if I remember right out of Iran, they're not thinking geopolitical as much as Islam is a geocratic geopolitical thing. They're thinking, hey, let's light this candle. Because if we blow things up, our Mahdi can come back, we can turn the world on fire, and that will bring back our Messiah. That's their eschatology. What say you?
- [06:30]
James Cadiz
Well, there's a lot to say here. So just addressing the concern with a third of our assets being in the Middle east, one of the things that we don't see completely ever compute is we've always had something to that equivalent in that immediate area. Now, granted, this is more than we've ever seen since at least 2003.
- [06:48]
Jack
Yeah, Gulf 1, Gulf 2.
- [06:49]
James Cadiz
That's right, definitely. But you have to understand how to frame it, which you clearly do. Matter of fact, I listened to a portion of your Bible study last night. You've got three major areas that you have to think about. The first area is, of course, the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, that's a big problem. And then obviously, as you go from the Indian Ocean and back into one area that doesn't get talked about a lot, and that's the area of the Red Sea. And when you get into the Red Sea and you go further north, you still have the Horn of Africa. That's true. Which is of great concern, especially where you see Djibouti and Eritrea and all of these other areas. Little Somalia, as they would call it, Somaliland, which by the way, is significant for Israel because of their military position that they've just acquired by being able to be there. And, and then when you start thinking about these Ezekiel 38 alliances, the Southern portion of the Arabian Peninsula becomes very, very significant, especially Yemen. And then if you really want to frame how spooky this problem can be, is an overwhelming majority of the trade, even the trade that would go through the Strait of Hormuz had to go around the southern portion of the Arabian Peninsula, up through the Red Sea, in through the. Literally all the way further north into the resources that we have in the Suez Canal, all the way through there into the Mediterranean. Mediterranean, out into the Atlantic Ocean. Now there's a lot of very tricky areas here, and Saudi Arabia has a lot to do with this because they're trying to in essence, effectively eliminate the trade path that exists through the Suez Canal. They're incentivizing Egypt to do it by paying them a significant amount of money. This is why this line construction is happening right now. A lot of things that people are
- [08:31]
Jack
not paying attention realize that.
- [08:32]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And they're not all. No one's paying attention to Al Fah, which is in essence the southern portion of Iraq. It's a peninsula in the southern portion of Iraq, which is a massive trading post that they're in essence building up, which they're doing all of this while slowly beginning to rebuild what we will call modern day Babylon.
- [08:50]
Jack
So to that point, modern day Babylon, According to Revelation 17 and 18, that's very significant.
- [08:56]
James Cadiz
Yes.
- [08:56]
Jack
That said, where are your thoughts on this? How could a modern day Babylon be formed with Iran being the way that they are with the Khomeinis and all of this?
- [09:08]
James Cadiz
Well, this is an easy one, this one for me, actually. I think understanding it the way you understand it, you have to realize what the Bible tells us about Elam. And this is the issue that a lot of people don't consider because there was a promise that was made eventually to Elam that never came true or until 79 or so, that they would in essence, become separated. In essence. I mean, like literally God was going to disperse the Iranian people throughout the whole world. And just like the Jews, the Persians have gone everywhere. This is why the people of Israel feel so close to the people of Persia instead of Khomeini and Khamenei, who's ruling right now. And then when we start talking about the death cult and what Islam is built on, that's a whole other ball of wax because let's just assume that Islam is predicated upon the foundations of what a lot of people call a separate world religion. It's not. It's not. It's a heresy of Christianity. If you even look at the most accepted, widely accepted extant manuscripts that we have of the Qur', an, the most recent one that we have is going to be dated to the. Or the most oldest one that we have is going to be dated near the time of the Ottoman Empire.
- [10:15]
Jack
That's right.
- [10:15]
James Cadiz
And even the name Muhammad isn't in the Quran. When you see the word Muhammad, that's what you see in the Quran. It's used four times. And you can arguably say that it's actually referencing Christ. And so you have to think about it like that. And then let's just assume the Quran stands as they say it does, which there are 90,000 variants of it based on Arabic language.
- [10:36]
Jack
Exactly.
- [10:36]
James Cadiz
It's just completely.
- [10:37]
Jack
Reverend J. Smith unpacks that beautifully.
- [10:40]
James Cadiz
He does a perfect job with it. But let's just assume for one second that all of that is true. How in the world would you like to believe a cult that actually tells you. And it's right there, you can open it up in the Quran and you can. And you can read it, which basically means they deceived, indirectly referring to the Jews. So Allah deceived, because Allah is the chief of deceivers.
- [11:05]
Jack
The whole thing is built on deception.
- [11:07]
James Cadiz
Deception.
- [11:08]
Jack
Now is that taqiyah or hudna, Taqiyah
- [11:11]
James Cadiz
is a word that's used for deception. Hudna, same idea. Hudna is a little different from taqiyyah. Taqiyyah is, in essence, the lying aspect. The hudna is the idea.
- [11:20]
Jack
I can lie to advance, I can
- [11:21]
James Cadiz
lie to advance the cause. And once we're big enough, then we can take it all by force.
- [11:25]
Jack
Got it.
- [11:25]
James Cadiz
That's in essence what we're talking about here. So it's predicated upon deception. When you even look at the eschatological bent of Iran, which represents roughly 5% of Islam, the Shiites, their eschatology is like some weird, twisted form of what we would read partially in Ezekiel 38. Yeah, it's really, really weird. And when we start Talking about the 12th Imam, I mean, most of these people don't even understand what any of that means. And it's hilarious to me because you see these people defending Islam, you see these people running around and saying, well, oh, look at Qatar. It's a beautiful place. It's wonderful, actually. You have no idea what you're talking about. Ilhan Omar is one of my favorite ones. It's like, you liar. You talk about having a better life. If you were to be in your country right now, in Islamic countries, they
- [12:15]
Jack
would kill you for what she and what she did recently at the State of the Union.
- [12:21]
James Cadiz
Hilarious.
- [12:22]
Jack
If she did that in her country, they would have had her head.
- [12:24]
James Cadiz
She wouldn't even be in a hall like that. She wouldn't even make it wearing her hijab, her fake hijab while she's breaking every single Sharia law that you can even think about. So I'm trying to convince people like, to understand when you run around and you say what they. When you repeat in English what they say in Arabic, when they say min Shahra, bah or mahrabah, when they talk about from the river of the sea, you're angry because you say the Jews are creating a condition which leads to genocide in Gaza. When in reality they are calling for the genocide of not only all Jews, but all Americans, all non Muslims in total. In essence, the first two target is going to be Americans and Israel. Then of course, it's get them all to submit or not. And they don't understand it. You know, these people wake up in the morning and they wake up to hearing it's one of their prayers. Oh, it's better to pray than to sleep, you know, and God, Allah is greater and Muhammad is his prophet. Well, the problem is, and it's a big problem, most people don't even understand what that means. When they're on these campuses of Colombia and they're saying these words. It's like, first of all, you say it like you've never spoke Arabic a day in your life. Because you haven't, number one. But then number two, you don't even understand the full implication of what you're communicating.
- [13:39]
Jack
I know what you're saying. They don't even know what river is and what sea is.
- [13:42]
James Cadiz
No, no, most of the time they don't what river and what sea is. They don't know the difference between the Euphrates to the Jordan to the Mediterranean to the Red Sea. They don't know any of that. I mean, and it's amazing they choose to be ignorant because the God of this world continues to blind them.
- [13:57]
Jack
There you go. Because I believe what you're saying. Where you see people that are just rabid, infested in the mind, crazy.
- [14:07]
James Cadiz
That's right.
- [14:07]
Jack
Spouting things off. Where in the last days our scriptures prophesied there will be doctrines of demons and lying spirits and I do believe we're seeing that.
- [14:18]
James Cadiz
Absolutely.
- [14:19]
Jack
If somebody were to come up to me and say, when do you think that's going to happen? Well, first of all, how do you think somebody breaks into your house? Does he come in with a bullhorn and a trumpet?
- [14:27]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [14:27]
Jack
No, they sneak in.
- [14:28]
James Cadiz
That's right.
- [14:29]
Jack
And it has already snuck in. You look at some of these Hollywood crazies or some of these podcast lunatics that have gone anti Semitic, pro Islamic. So much. So I want to buy land in Qatar or whatever. They have no idea.
- [14:42]
James Cadiz
I'm going to buy a house in Qatar.
- [14:44]
Jack
Yeah.
- [14:44]
James Cadiz
Good luck. There are more Christians in Qatar than there are in Israel. Can I just say this? Amen, Tucker. Even though you didn't know the number, you were right about that. There's close to 400,000 Christians in Qatar. None of them are citizens.
- [14:59]
Jack
Oh, he didn't know that number.
- [15:01]
James Cadiz
He didn't know that number.
- [15:02]
Jack
How come.
- [15:04]
James Cadiz
How come he challenged him on it?
- [15:05]
Jack
Or Ted Cruz.
- [15:07]
James Cadiz
Oh, you got. Oh, oh, what about.
- [15:09]
Jack
Remember. Remember that Ted Cruz thing? How many people live in Iran? I don't know. You're a sitting senator and you don't
- [15:15]
James Cadiz
know how many people.
- [15:15]
Jack
It's like, oh, seriously, Tucker, how many people live in Canada?
- [15:19]
James Cadiz
Those facts are uniquely superfluous unless you make a claim like the claim you just made where you said you want to put it out on the table that so many more. But you know what? He might be right in one sense. If Israel, when Israel became a nation when it first started, there were 35,000 Christians in the country. There's now close to 180,000 Christians in the country. Okay, now let's go. Let's back up for a second. In Qatar, there's almost 400,000 Christians in the country, but guess what? They're tied down six churches where they cannot muzzle anything. They are not controlled. They're not allowed to be citizens. These are the people that are brought into the slave trade from countries like the Philippines and other places where they're going. And they're actually, you know, serving these sheikhs and many of these other people. Because here's the thing that people don't recognize about places like Qatar, the UAE and many of these other places.
- [16:14]
Jack
Yeah, uae. You look these nations that now America is flirting with and sadly doing a lot of business with.
- [16:22]
James Cadiz
100%.
- [16:23]
Jack
It's a dance with the devil.
- [16:24]
James Cadiz
100%.
- [16:26]
Jack
Here we are as a nation, us saying we need to stop human trafficking, we need to stop pornography, and you're doing business and building things and Doing trade deals with those nations in that area that are the epicenter of human sex slave trade market and. No, no, that's not possible. It's Islamic. Listen, I've been told by Middle Easterns if you want to go to the, if you want to go to the Vegas of the Middle Eastern world, you go to those.
- [17:01]
James Cadiz
Yeah. You go to uae, Dubai. Dubai, Dubai.
- [17:05]
Jack
I was shocked to learn that Dubai is really the international playground of epicurean delights.
- [17:14]
James Cadiz
Yeah. It's the truth.
- [17:14]
Jack
I had no idea.
- [17:15]
James Cadiz
It's the truth. And with all the lying that goes on and all the deception with respect to what's happening relationally in the Middle east. It's interesting. I know with what the President is doing right now, it's a very complicated ball of wax because there's a lot of people who will look at geopolitically what he's doing and say he's hugely erroneous for doing it. He's turning his back on Israel because he's making the decisions. But a lot of people don't really understand the mindset of Middle Eastern culture.
- [17:40]
Jack
That's right.
- [17:40]
James Cadiz
And they don't recognize the fact that these people in the Middle east do respect power. The big problem that the President had in his first term was when the election was literally stolen. I hate to say that, but when that actually happened, everybody in the Middle east who literally were the enemies of Iran, lost their confidence in their ability to be able to maintain security. So we're talking about all of the members of the GCC with the exception of Qatar. And so when that all happened, it was like every man for himself. So President Trump saying he's going to Saudi Arabia for his first trip was actually an act of genius in the sense that he recognized the need for the royal family of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, especially Mohammed bin Salman, to rally up the troops, especially those in the gcc, to begin to make these deals and then to go to them and basically say, look, you guys can work with me. I would love to do it. We're going to give you everything you need. We're going to help you with security. We're going to do this, we're going to do that. But here's the thing. I'll go to Israel if you're not going to give me what I need
- [18:44]
Jack
with me or I'll dance with somebody else.
- [18:45]
James Cadiz
And so the idea behind that is that was very well orchestrated. He did that on purpose. As a matter of fact, when you start looking at what's going on with Al Shara with Hayat Al Hail Al Sham. That was the. And I refuse to call him Al Shara. I'm just saying it for reference. I always refer to him as Mohammed Al Jalani because that was his original name when he was the terrorist running hts in Syria. Look, there's a method to the madness in what he did there.
- [19:12]
Jack
He puts on a suit.
- [19:13]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah. Now he's the guy. But I understand why Trump allowed that, because when the fall of Bashar Al Assad took place in Syria, you have to understand the.
- [19:24]
Jack
Where is he now?
- [19:25]
James Cadiz
In Russia. In Russia. But you have to understand the strategic component in that happening. The President was able to aptly recognize the fact that this was definitely Erdogan, who had his hand in this, especially knowing that the PKK was going to be disbanded, which was his arch enemies in Turkey. And then, not to mention the fact that when you start looking at Turkey as a whole, to think about the idea that not only were the PKK disbanding, but then you have the Islamic Brotherhood factions that were his people beginning to come together. And then the President was, I think, very wisely playing that and understanding it. Because if you stop for a moment to look at what he's doing with allowing Turkey to do what they did with Syria, even if it means putting Gilani in place, he's making a play on trying to bring some prominence to the Kurds to the north, which is a very tricky and highly debatable issue.
- [20:16]
Jack
Y dicey issue.
- [20:18]
James Cadiz
It's very dicey. And then the Golan Heights is a dicey issue. But what becomes very unique and very apparent to anybody who understands the geopolitics of the region is the fact that the President of the United States created a condition by which the transformation that's taking place in that region allows him to do something that he tried to do in his first term, but he couldn't. And that is the reversing of what we all call the Arab Spring, because
- [20:44]
Jack
Obama's campaign, Obama's policy, and ruined completely
- [20:49]
James Cadiz
with what he did with Libya, all the way from Tripoli to Benghazi, which we're all very familiar with.
- [20:54]
Jack
That which is amazing to me that Hillary walks the streets after that. Beyond provable, culpable.
- [21:02]
James Cadiz
All very obvious. All very obvious. Even when you look at what strategy Israel has been taking in their geopolitics, in the expansion of their diplomatic relations beyond that, which would be deeb the Abrahamic Covenants, the Abrahamic Accords Covenant, is how you would translate it from the language. But look at what he did in Morocco. He goes to Morocco and he says, we declare the conflict that you have with Western Sahara to be, in essence, part of what Morocco has a right to. Then they go to the Baltics, and they're making relationships with people in the Baltics. And then Azerbaijan, look at what's happening over there. Azerbaijan is practically an Israeli proxy right now. For the good. For the good. So you see all of this beginning to happen. You look at the corruption that's going on in Israel right now, and there is a ton of corruption. And by the way, Bibi Netanyahu is not the corrupt one. The one who's corrupt. The courts, it's so similar.
- [21:58]
Jack
What's happened here in Israel is duplicate deep state, the demonic deep state that Christ screams, bibi's a homo, or Bibi, you know, eats dogs. We need to impeach him. We need to get him out. It's the same. It correlated and paralleled the whole Trump ordeals with the Democrat machine and deep state, no doubt about it. Yeah.
- [22:22]
James Cadiz
I mean, the head of their Shabbat at the time that October 7th happened is an embarrassment.
- [22:29]
Jack
Wow.
- [22:29]
James Cadiz
He. Shame on him.
- [22:30]
Jack
Absolutely.
- [22:31]
James Cadiz
He didn't inform Bibi. There's a lot of things that happened there. The judicial system was working directly against Bibi, and the Knesset at the time, which we're beginning to find evidence of that already. The guy who was supposed to be Bibi's closest guy, who is, in essence, the security chief, this is the guy who is supposed to be the equivalent of our defense minister. Actually, we call him now the Minister of the Secretary of War. And then you even look at the head of the idf and you understand the IDF chief at the time, the kind of betrayal against his country, against his people. So people all look at what happened to Bibi Netanyahu and everybody, the whole world ought to thank their. Thank God that Bibi was there when
- [23:16]
Jack
it all happened, 100%. Oh, my gosh.
- [23:19]
James Cadiz
So there's a lot to say there. But the problem is all these people that want to speak authoritatively about what happened in Israel, many of them won't be able to name even a single party beyond the Lahud. They don't even know how the parliament works.
- [23:29]
Jack
This is one of the things, James, that concerns me. You know, we pray that Trump's got great advisors. I think maybe sometimes Trump, although, you know, I say this with hesitation because I'm not going to mention this guy's name, but the first presidency of Donald Trump, this guy that I know was involved very much and Then once Trump was sworn in, he was in the White House, in the Oval Office every Thursday. And so about a month after the election, I got a chance to be in D.C. and we had dinner and I asked him, what's it like? What's it like being in the new White House and the new Oval Office, and what's he like? What's Trump like? And his word was great. He said, this is what I've learned in a short period of time. You never in your life ever want to play poker with Trump.
- [24:21]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Oh, yeah. He'll beat you. You will lose 100%.
- [24:25]
Jack
You will lose 100%. And so you look around at what's going on at this time, and I have to tell you, because I'm old enough, I look back and I have these hauntings of the buffoonery of, for example, George Bush, the Sun, and his attitude toward the Middle east. And he thinks, this is how you do things in the Middle East. And he had no idea. He had horrible advisors, and the whole thing was a debacle. Obviously, I'm hoping Trump is wiser than all that. I hope that Trump has got good counsel regarding the Middle East. But what's remarkable to me and to our viewers is that here we are talking about the trending news of the moment, and it's all biblical nations, 100%. You mentioned Elam earlier, which is Persia, which is Iran, Israel, Egypt. You talked about Yemen, you talked all about these places. We're talking. I mean, I don't, honestly, how can people remain to be unbelievers at a time like this? Because it's like, wait a minute, I want to know what tomorrow's going to be like. I better read my Bible today.
- [25:36]
James Cadiz
Amazing. It's my belief that pastors should be the best geopolitical analysts alive.
- [25:43]
Jack
I believe that they should.
- [25:44]
James Cadiz
Because if you know the Bible and you understand Bible prophecy, you are going to be able to very uniquely analyze.
- [25:50]
Jack
That's right.
- [25:51]
James Cadiz
What. What is happening and what to expect.
- [25:53]
Jack
Very well said.
- [25:54]
James Cadiz
And that's why people like me and you took a stand against us, standing with Ukraine, giving them money going into. Because we know where Russia ends up. We know where it goes. So when we start talking about energy and what that's all going to mean, I mean, even. Even in my own personal financial activities, if I'm trading something or if I'm. If I'm making an investment somewhere else, I very much take the biblical account into play. So, you know, you know where things are going to go. Russia's not going to weaken. There's no way the Russian Federation is going to continue to grow and their energy policy seems to continue to. Has anybody watched Orban lately? Has anybody watched what he just did to the eu? No.
- [26:37]
Jack
Well, first of all, I watch him. I love him. What did he say? What did he do?
- [26:42]
James Cadiz
He basically. To shove off.
- [26:44]
Jack
Okay, that's. I was expecting that to happen. The guy's amazing.
- [26:47]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And the next set of. The next set of conditions that they wanted to throw against. Sanctions. Sorry, I was looking for the word sanctions that they wanted to throw against Russia. Orban said, we're not doing it. So he used two of his vetoes to completely shut it down. Okay. And so what that basically did was it single handedly strengthened the energy position that Russia has always had. Especially because Europe didn't listen to Trump last term. Right. Dependency upon Russia laughing at him. It's no big deal. Nord Stream, all of that debacle, all of that, completely believing that they were okay and that Trump was a joke. He doesn't understand geopolitics. He's an idiot when it comes to Europe. That's what they were all saying, but they didn't realize the genius in that man and they still don't want to accept it.
- [27:36]
Jack
That's right.
- [27:37]
James Cadiz
We're in that situation right now. Now, I could have told you without any of that.
- [27:40]
Jack
Isn't that amazing?
- [27:41]
James Cadiz
Based on what the Bible says?
- [27:42]
Jack
I remember yelling at my TV back in the Bush era, but he couldn't hear me. The Iraqis don't want to have a democracy. They don't want to have a republic. I know you don't understand. They have to have a leader over them. That's the only way they think 100%. Oh, but we got. You see them vote with the purple thumbs and it's like it's not going to work. I mean, I was sitting in my living room conducting geopolitical strategy.
- [28:08]
James Cadiz
Well, what they did with Saddam was such a huge error.
- [28:12]
Jack
Same with Gaddafi.
- [28:13]
James Cadiz
Gaddafi, exactly. Same kind of thing. Wait, let me get this straight. You managed to get the leader of Libya to say he's going to fight terrorist factions and actually does it while giving up his nuclear capacity, and then you're going to kill him for it.
- [28:28]
Jack
Hillary, it couldn't have been better. But Obama and Hillary absolutely flips.
- [28:36]
James Cadiz
And then these ignorant, foolish podcasters that don't know their heads from their butts. They ought to stick to being comedians.
- [28:44]
Jack
But is a Hebrew word for word.
- [28:47]
James Cadiz
I'm sorry, I just had to say it. But it's like you now, Tucker, just did this. You now want to blame Israel for forcing the United States of America to go into Iraq, when in reality, Israel did everything it could to stop America from going into Iraq because it knew the level of instability it would create, not only with Syria, but everything else that would take place. And sure enough, look at what happened.
- [29:11]
Jack
Yeah, but the precursor to Iraq was the 911 attack.
- [29:15]
James Cadiz
100%.
- [29:16]
Jack
And Israel, the precursor of the attack. Israel had been warning the United States by intel. We have evidence. We have information. They are going to strike your cities. They are going to strike your Pentagon. And we didn't listen. And that now people who don't know that, it's because they don't want to know that because Israel has. They've made it clear. We were telling you guys and we didn't take that serious.
- [29:42]
James Cadiz
Well, the problem is people develop these attachments and these relationships to these podcasters and think somehow that they. They take an authoritative stance when in reality, they don't understand fact. They're. They're fictional. And we know some of these.
- [29:54]
Jack
They're name droppers. Yeah, yeah, cuddlies.
- [29:57]
James Cadiz
But they're. But they're just evil. Look, I was at a. I was at a gathering recently where I was asked to go speak, and I was amongst all of these really famous people, and it was just hilarious to me how little all of them actually knew. How little they knew about the Bible, even though claiming to be Bible students, how little they actually knew about what was really going on. Most of them wouldn't be able to sit in a roundtable like this and have a real conversation about what's going on because they don't really follow it. They don't know the Bible. Like, it's amazing to me because what's popular right now is to say, I'm a Christian, and then in the name of Jesus, like, can I give you one example of this? This is like such an important principle to bring up. I hear this being said a lot. Jesus is king. People say this a lot. Jesus is king. And then everybody gets mad that are part of this crowd that think we should be able to say it on a regular basis. Would it shock people if I told everybody that theologically you're saying something that you don't understand when you make that statement, signing things off. Because here's the thing. When people say Jesus is king, they are right now saying that Jesus is king over the church, which has replaced Israel.
- [31:07]
Jack
Yeah.
- [31:08]
James Cadiz
Jesus becoming king as part of the Davidic covenant happens at the end of Revelation. Well, he's our priest. James.
- [31:16]
Jack
Now, James, James. They can't, they have to think like that because they've not read the book of Revelation. That's right.
- [31:21]
James Cadiz
That's right.
- [31:22]
Jack
And if they read it, they wouldn't know it because they don't read their Old Testament.
- [31:24]
James Cadiz
That's right. And he's our priest right now. And that's the thing. People, people don't get that. And because there's a whole, there's a whole thing that I talk about this, by the way, in my Revelation book, but there's this whole thing where people don't understand. Look, you can never know the book of Revelation. Well, unless you know the Old Testament. And the Old Testament gives you so much insight as into how you should actually look at this. When we. Here's a great example. The author of Hebrews does something really important. It's really, really critical what he does. I think it's Paul.
- [31:58]
Jack
We do.
- [31:59]
James Cadiz
He goes to make the argument that Christ is superior in every aspect. Superior to the angels. He's superior. This. One of the arguments that he makes, it's really important for us as believers is that he is the superior priest. Now the question that everybody has is how can he. This is a legitimate question. The Jewish people are asking, how can he be the legitimate priest when he's from the tribe of Judah? Like, how does that work? Well, the argument that the apostle Paul makes is he says, listen, he came from a different line. He came from the Melchizedekian line. He didn't come from the Aaronic priesthood.
- [32:32]
Jack
That's right.
- [32:33]
James Cadiz
That's when Jesus said Abraham was I am. Those guys knew exactly what was being spoken about. Okay, Exactly. So, so it's the same thing. If you understand that, then it begins to make sense. I mean, it's just like Jesus going to the Pharisees and basically saying, you missed this thy day. Like you should have known this thy day. You were talking same thing.
- [32:54]
Jack
You guys all should have got out and lined the path and said, man, this is the day. Daniel made it so clear to the day.
- [32:59]
James Cadiz
Here we go to the day from the declaration to restore and rebuild. 69 weeks. Think about that.
- [33:05]
Jack
Exactly.
- [33:06]
James Cadiz
You know, 483 years times 360 days, 178,880 days from March 14th, 444 BC when Artaxerxes Longimanus makes a declaration in Nehemiah chapter two. Which brings you to March 29th, 33 AD which literally was the day that Jesus rode into the city of Yerushalayim. And they were bowing down and doing all that, and then a few days later is killed.
- [33:30]
Jack
Yeah. Yeah, they should have known it. They should have known that as much as they should have known Isaiah 53, that the end of this week where Daniel made it clear, the same prophecy, 100%, James. I mean, you and I know this, but the same prophecy of Daniel, you don't even have to go to Isaiah 53, Daniel 9, 24, 27 tells you that whoever this one is that is going to come, that is the anointed one, that is Israel's Messiah, he's going to be cut off for a capital offense.
- [34:09]
James Cadiz
Yep. What?
- [34:11]
Jack
Yeah. Jesus declared himself to be God, but they did not believe it. Thus they had a kangaroo court to get him under that cross. And yet we know from Peter announcing in the book of Acts that, yeah, he was crucified by our own wicked hands, but God in his foreknowledge knew in advance, and this is a wonderful thing, that even all of the drama whereby God is so awesome, that God knows. He knows all things in advance because he's eternal. And yet Judas was fully responsible for his actions. He wasn't pre programmed to betray Jesus. God, whose outside time knew in advance that when the cards played, Judas would do this thing. Thus Judas is responsible for his action. But God knew all things. And it's absolutely awesome and stunning. So fast forwarding, so we're in this situation and I got to say, as of today, it's 4:29pm Pacific Time. We don't know what's going to happen in the next five minutes in the Middle East.
- [35:19]
James Cadiz
Can I tell you what I have a feeling is going to happen even though we're airing it?
- [35:23]
Jack
I was going to ask you. We should probably do a couple of takes to say yesterday, two days ago,
- [35:28]
James Cadiz
we should, because I actually think he's gonna attack on Purim.
- [35:34]
Jack
I've heard this.
- [35:35]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And here's the reason why. Because Trump, that would happen to be the day after the deadline he created. And the last time he attacked was the day after the deadline he created.
- [35:44]
Jack
So you guys. So, I mean, I've heard this. It's so. It's so beautiful that it's like, no, there's no way that can happen because it's so obvious. But you know what?
- [35:57]
James Cadiz
I know. I mean, maybe he's not gonna do it that day because it's. Maybe it's. Who knows?
- [36:04]
Jack
You gotta wonder if some President Trump, if you're going to do it, do it the day after Yeah.
- [36:10]
James Cadiz
I mean, could you imagine.
- [36:11]
Jack
It would be really amazing. Nobody's.
- [36:13]
James Cadiz
I mean, one thing I know for a fact, with respect to President Trump. Trump, and we know this from a mutual friend, a couple of mutual friends. He, he doesn't take it lightly when he's told that he's a modern day Cyrus. You know, I don't know if he's walking with the Lord, but I think that it's tough because right now there's a lot of very. We need to pray for him. There's. There's a lot of influences that are in his ear right now that are working very hard and don't even know it to take his eyes off the spiritual issues, especially when it comes to some of the people that are part of the faith advisory group.
- [36:55]
Jack
Don't go there.
- [36:56]
James Cadiz
Yeah, I know, I know. I mean, go there. I was just saying don't go there. Here's the thing. Let me make this statement without pointing anything.
- [37:03]
Jack
There's a reason why I'm not in it.
- [37:06]
James Cadiz
Yep. And I don't blame you for it. You have to have people that are filled with the spirit that are going to be doing this 100%. And right now that's not the case.
- [37:15]
Jack
That's not the case.
- [37:16]
James Cadiz
And the problem, what I'm praying happens with the president is that the president has somebody in his ear that will tell him, Mr. President, you have to look at what is biblical for the people that are advising you before you listen to the advice.
- [37:32]
Jack
So I can encourage you with this. There's a person that was sitting very near to him the other night at the State of the Union, a sold out brother who loves God more than his position. I've dropped enough hits. Profound constitutional attorney who is not shy. In fact, I think, in fact, he's the most. He's the most successful that we know of in American history in his position. That said, he will tell. He's fearless with Trump. He is fearless with Trump.
- [38:12]
James Cadiz
He has to be. He has to be.
- [38:15]
Jack
He's fearless with Trump. He says, what's Bible? And then he leaves it up to Trump. But he'll always represent scripture.
- [38:21]
James Cadiz
He has to be.
- [38:22]
Jack
He's a man of God. He's the real deal.
- [38:25]
James Cadiz
Because right now there's a lot of people that are in his ears that are. They earnestly desire to be known and they earnestly desire to have notoriety more than they have a desire to tell the truth.
- [38:41]
Jack
They'll do anything for a photo op.
- [38:43]
James Cadiz
Yep. And by the way, I mean, this goes back to a lot of Other issues. I mean, it shouldn't be that way with pastors, Especially with pastors. It shouldn't be that way. We should be the people as pastors, who not only are great examples in virtually every area of our lives, but we should learn what it means to be people who are not concerned with what that means.
- [39:02]
Jack
People think that means we can't be concerned about being hated.
- [39:05]
James Cadiz
Yep. Yep.
- [39:07]
Jack
I think about that. Jesus said, you're going to be hated.
- [39:09]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [39:10]
Jack
Because they hated me.
- [39:11]
James Cadiz
Covid did that for me. Yeah, it broke me of that desire. Yeah, it broke me of that desire. And it has been one of the most joyful, liberating, liberating, wonderful. I mean, I am enjoying life now more than I ever have before because God gave me the opportunity to be put in such fire that I've been able to experience his hand, his miraculous hand in doing what he's done. And I'm honored to watch my beautiful bride and my children see their dad and know that their dad is the real person. And to teach them what it means to truly love God. You know, there's nothing better than that. And then to be able to live in the days in which we're living right now is just unbelievable.
- [40:00]
Jack
So our pastor who's in heaven now, Chuck Smith, he, for him, he would do anything to be back here, to be at such a time.
- [40:10]
James Cadiz
Are you kidding me?
- [40:11]
Jack
These are the things he told us about. I remember hearing this in 82 or in 79.
- [40:16]
James Cadiz
I know.
- [40:17]
Jack
Or in, you know, you name it. When it was just like, what? And you and I are living it now.
- [40:21]
James Cadiz
I know. And what's perhaps more consequential and more significant is the Calvary Chapel movement. And it's just a heartbreaking thought, right? But the Calvary Chapel movement, for whatever reason, somehow was raised on the idea, even though Chuck didn't completely believe this, but were raised on the idea that we step away from politics, we step away from what's happening here. We just read the Bible, we teach the Word, we obey God, we let the spirit move, and then we don't have to worry about any of that stuff. When in reality, what God was doing in that early movement in the 60s was he was preparing people to wake up and to engage politically at that time. And many didn't.
- [41:08]
Jack
Most didn't.
- [41:09]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [41:10]
Jack
And yet, to back up what you just said, Lisa and I have listened to Chuck's messages on YouTube, by the way. They're all there on YouTube. And it was, I think, late 90s, where California had made another stupid Decision. Oh yeah, that's when they were just getting started on making super stupid decisions. Now they perfected it. That said Chuck went off on a Thursday night Bible study. He went off.
- [41:39]
James Cadiz
He did that a lot.
- [41:40]
Jack
On how we need to vote. You need to get out there and vote and get these crazies out of office by voting. Right. And a lot of pastors today. Coverage of pastors today. Well, you know, we were taught by Chuck just to preach the gospel. That's not true.
- [41:54]
James Cadiz
You weren't.
- [41:55]
Jack
Listen, that's the only church you weren't that I ever knew. And Chuck never said that.
- [42:00]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [42:01]
Jack
He never said no, just preach the gospel. To be honest with you, I'm going to get pushback from this. But it's okay. The actual pastor that said, don't get involved in politics, stay out of it. It's a dark kingdom. We don't belong there. Actually, John MacArthur. Yeah, John MacArthur was the one who said stay out until.
- [42:20]
James Cadiz
Until he saw how bad it was affecting him.
- [42:22]
Jack
Until LA county came to almost seek to destroy his church during COVID And then all of a sudden John MacArthur lawyered up and went to war against the politics. By God's grace, they won. But that case, that situation, Chuck never said that. In fact, this is pretty cool. David C. Cook Publishers published a book called Turnaround at Leaving a Legacy. Spiritual legacy. Greater than what you received. Lisa and I wrote that book. And Chuck Smith, three months before he died, he wrote the foreword to that book. And when you read it, it's like, wow, this is what we.
- [43:01]
James Cadiz
Wow, this is what it is.
- [43:03]
Jack
We should have had him just teach this at pastors conferences because a lot of people today say, no, that's not how it. That's not Calvary. They should take the time to read that forward. It's incredible. But that said, scenarios. Let's play this out. I have no idea at what time it is. So we're there in the Mediterranean, Persian Gulf, all over the place. We've got huge assets there. Red Sea, Indian Ocean, Red Sea, you name it. By the way, we just. This is kind of funny. Sorry, it's not really funny. Ironic Europe that has been going headlong, weak kneed, capitulating to anything Islam wants in Europe. Heard the other day from. Is it the. It's not. What's the title? Khomeini or.
- [44:04]
James Cadiz
Yeah, Khomeini. Yeah, it's now currently. Yeah, the current one. Yeah, Khomeini is the, Is the, is the first one. Yeah, yeah. So they're pronounced slightly differently.
- [44:15]
Jack
Okay, so how do you pronounce this, this guy?
- [44:17]
James Cadiz
Yeah, Khamenei.
- [44:18]
Jack
Okay. He said, we will be able to hit London. So he says this, and all of
- [44:26]
James Cadiz
a sudden I didn't hear this. When was that? When was that statement released?
- [44:30]
Jack
It wasn't released. It was spoken to me by David Rose. No, Joel Rosenberg in nrb. He said, hey, did you hear? Funny. All of a sudden, England calls up and says, you guys want to park any of your airplanes here in your staging?
- [44:48]
James Cadiz
Isn't that hilarious?
- [44:49]
Jack
And we moved a truckload of B52s over there and F22s. In fact, this is not a secret. You can find it if you look hard enough. But we had the chance here in Southern California. You know, it's pretty weird where we're sitting, right? Because California is so great.
- [45:10]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [45:11]
Jack
Oh, yeah. You and I can head to the beach. We could have dinner in an hour at the beach.
- [45:15]
James Cadiz
Oh, easily, easily.
- [45:17]
Jack
Or if we had an hour north from here or northeast from here. We go over those snow capped mountains right now in snow, and we go to Edwards air force base. 5 specially rigged. We don't know of what. I don't know of what. Five specially rigged B52s which are not kept at Edwards. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but they're, they're tricky B52s. Those five went right off and went straight to. Is it Lankershire in England. And they're parked and they're specially rigged up B52s that said England got all cuddly with us when they heard that. They're in the crosshairs, or at least they were boasting. We can get you guys in London. I find that interesting. With that said, we've got a belief system, even if Americans don't want to believe it. Those guys believe in serving their God to destroy the United States. And they believe that this buildup is not only God bringing in the Americans for slaughter, but I just quoted last night in the message where Khomeini said, the Persian Gulf will become the graveyard of American arrogance.
- [46:33]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah, okay. I heard that before, by the way,
- [46:36]
Jack
the Russians, a week or two ago, Russia and China. This is published. You can look it up. Russia and China told Iran, don't do anything. Hold back, hold back, be patient, don't do anything. And from that time, there's been a constant flight of cargo going into Iran with weaponry from China and Russia. And submarines have shown up, warships have shown up. Now fast boats have shown up.
- [47:03]
James Cadiz
Yeah. China's rushing everything into the Russian Federation space. And then from the Russian Federation. They're going into Iran is what I'm hearing.
- [47:09]
Jack
That's right.
- [47:10]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And it's. And it's crazy the way that that's all being staged. You have to. You have to go by a set of facts that are. That are biblically based to be able to understand what's going on. And some of these are contrary to what people are saying. But there's things that we know has to happen in order for certain things to take place. Like, for example, Ezekiel 38 can't even be on the horizon.
- [47:31]
Jack
That's right.
- [47:32]
James Cadiz
Until we have peace, there has to be.
- [47:34]
Jack
Israel has got to feel it.
- [47:35]
James Cadiz
Peace, unwalled villages.
- [47:36]
Jack
Right now they don't.
- [47:37]
James Cadiz
There's no unwalled villages in Israel right now.
- [47:39]
Jack
They don't feel peaceful.
- [47:40]
James Cadiz
Right. So that has to happen. And Persia has to be one of Israel's friends. So we have to.
- [47:46]
Jack
After the deception.
- [47:47]
James Cadiz
Yeah. We have to go back to this pre1979 kind of world. And I think the only way that happens is by Persians coming back into Iran as predicted.
- [47:58]
Jack
I have my Bible open to Jeremiah 49.
- [48:01]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Yeah. And I actually am one of the few. This is. I know some people think. Yeah, I don't think Jeremiah 49 is the exact same thing as Ezekiel 38. I think they're separate.
- [48:12]
Jack
I'm glad you said that for this reason. And I'm open. But when I take Ezekiel 38, I like doing this, by the way. It's just the way my brain works. There's something way, way long ago, when dinosaurs ruled the earth, that we used to have transparent vellum or we had overhead projectors. Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
- [48:32]
James Cadiz
Of course. I remember those days.
- [48:33]
Jack
So you read history books?
- [48:34]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [48:34]
Jack
So if you took. If you were showing something like a building or whatever it might be, you would put that. Transparency.
- [48:43]
James Cadiz
You overlay them. Yeah.
- [48:45]
Jack
And you describe what the foundation is. And then you put B on top of A. And it begins to take shape when you do that, and I encourage everyone to do that. Take Ezekiel 38 and lay it on top of Jeremiah 49. And at some points, it's tracking. And then there's a diverge, there's a bifurcation, it splits. And I don't think they're the same thing either.
- [49:10]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Cause there's people. So there's people right now that are saying that they don't like what Trump is doing with his Board of Peace because it's gonna slow down the last time scenario.
- [49:18]
Jack
Oh. Like God's gonna be manipulated.
- [49:19]
James Cadiz
As always. Gonna be manipulated. I actually think it speeds it up in my mind when I say that. Not that I know I've got the time, but if peace comes the way it could potentially come, especially if Iran is held at bay and this could happen, I mean, it's tricky, especially with what's happening in the Persian Gulf. The way the GCC is posturing itself right now against one of its own in Qatar. The rise of American presence in that area, the new trade route corridor, the withdrawal, this is a big one, right? We withdrew from a very important spot in Iraq. Okay? Very, very important spot on that border area, and we gave it to the control of Giuliani. And the land bridge corridor issue that goes to the north, that everybody's been debated about, is now becoming more viable for use for regular trade amongst all these countries. And Saudi Arabia is at the helm of it all. They're funding it, they're paying for it. They want to run it. Why? Because Mohammed bin Salman is not only recognizing the scholarship that's coming out of Pakistan and India regarding the Quran and actually the existence of Mecca in the time of Muhammad, which they don't work. They were abandoned. That's right. They didn't even exist.
- [50:42]
Jack
It didn't work.
- [50:44]
James Cadiz
So he's recognizing that the religious side of it is fixing to change a little bit. And that's why people like Tucker are very, very valuable in the hands of individuals in these areas, because you have to be able to. You have to be able to frame it differently. And the problem with Islam is that Islam is something to the average person who comes from the West. Inconceivable.
- [51:14]
Jack
That's right.
- [51:16]
James Cadiz
They do not. We were there together, me and you sat there and we watched these people get murdered. State of Israel showed us those videos. We're sitting there together. The one thing that was different from me and virtually everybody else except anybody, except one other person in the room was that I could understand what they were saying in Arabic. And I don't know what bothered me more. I don't know if it was the images of these people getting killed, these innocent, precious babies.
- [51:46]
Jack
Grotesque.
- [51:47]
James Cadiz
I mean, I don't know what bothered me more. Hearing that, watching that, seeing that, feeling that, or what they were saying in Arabic while they're doing it. They're quoting the Quran. They're saying Allahu Akbar.
- [52:03]
Jack
That's right.
- [52:03]
James Cadiz
They do not. They say Allah is greater. Like they do not understand.
- [52:08]
Jack
Listen, for our viewers, I want you to say that really carefully. Again, you just said Allah is greater.
- [52:19]
James Cadiz
That's exactly what it Translates to. Say it slowly in Arabic, Allahu Akbar, meaning Allah, meaning he is above all, greater than all. Yeah.
- [52:31]
Jack
Greater than who?
- [52:32]
James Cadiz
Greater than our God. Greater than which, by the way, as Christians.
- [52:37]
Jack
But do you see my point?
- [52:37]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And by the way, can I just say this? As Christians, most of us, at least the ones that tend to be a little bit more educated. My uncle taught me this a lot of years ago. He says we try to avoid using the word Allah because Allah is a name, it's not a title. So when we say God, we use other terms oftentimes, because when we use the term Allah, Allah is pointing very specifically to the Father of Lies, to the. To, in essence, the false God that these people worship.
- [53:08]
Jack
Because Allah is God.
- [53:09]
James Cadiz
Right.
- [53:09]
Jack
In Arabic.
- [53:10]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Well, Allah. Over the years, because of the influence of the Arab language, most Arabs now, in order to say God, they'll say Allah. Okay. And there's a certain draw, like you'll be able to tell if it's a Christian saying it or if it's a Muslim saying it. And lots of Christians will say it. But it's not necessarily what is translated biblically, because if you were to translate it, it's not even a transliteration. When you see Allah in the Old Testament. An Arabic. Old Testament Bible. Yeah.
- [53:43]
Jack
An Arabic Bible.
- [53:43]
James Cadiz
Yeah. It's taking. It doesn't even. It's not even. It's not even a transliteration. Like, we'll see things like Jehovah. That's a transliteration. We'll see Yahweh. We'll see different things like that. Those are transliterations. You don't see that from the Arabic Bible. That was because of the Ottoman influence. That was because of the Arab influence that they actually see a lot of that. So there's a lot to be said about it. I oftentimes don't spend a lot of time talking about what the Qur' an says so much as the fact that it's not even a credible document.
- [54:16]
Jack
That's right.
- [54:17]
James Cadiz
But it is, in essence, wrapped up in deception. Because the average Muslim apologist will attack Christianity. He does not deal with strengthening the foundation of their arguments, because the foundation of their arguments is a heresy of Christianity, which is why they attack Christianity.
- [54:36]
Jack
Yeah.
- [54:37]
James Cadiz
And that's a difficult thing for people understand.
- [54:38]
Jack
And that's wild, too. A lot of people don't realize that their eschatological view of the end is that Mohammed returns. Jesus is with him.
- [54:47]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [54:48]
Jack
Isn't even Mary.
- [54:49]
James Cadiz
Yeah. What you'll hear them say oftentimes is Easa Om Memeriam, which is Jesus and Mary.
- [54:59]
Jack
Think about that. And people are so biblically ignorant in America that if a Muslim says, no, no, no, no, you've misunderstood. We believe in Jesus and Mary.
- [55:08]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [55:09]
Jack
I mean, think about that now.
- [55:10]
James Cadiz
What is this anyway? Yeah, yeah. It goes a lot deeper than that.
- [55:16]
Jack
Very much so, yeah.
- [55:17]
James Cadiz
I should give you. When you have a chance, I'll give you a video. I've done many of these. I actually have actually translated them and I've actually talked about it. But there's one video that's floating around of the Grand Mufti, the old Grand Mufti of Egypt, talking about this. And he sounds like. It sounds like a perversion of Isaiah, Ezekiel.
- [55:33]
Jack
Wait a minute, how far back? Grand Mufti of Egypt.
- [55:36]
James Cadiz
Not grand. Not far back, like Nazi, but which. That's a whole. Other.
- [55:39]
Jack
That's a whole. Wow.
- [55:40]
James Cadiz
Oh, my goodness. If you ever want to understand where communism. Why communism is so prominent right now and why communism aligns so much with Islam.
- [55:48]
Jack
Islam.
- [55:50]
James Cadiz
Islam is, in essence, is a heretical teaching of Christianity and is a political. Is a political action function, basically.
- [55:58]
Jack
I have always taught the church from my understanding early on about Islam. And this is what we do not get is in the United States, we have the understanding there's not a legal document, but there's the understanding that there's a separation of church and state based upon the First Amendment, that the state. We will not have a state church and the state cannot impose itself upon worship or the free exercise thereof in Islam. A lot of people in the west dial down on the hijab and a mosque. Excuse me, but Islam is a geopolitical, theocratic umbrella that covers not just religion, it's all of these other things that go down to the very end of your life's existence. The way that you do this, the way that you do that, a woman this way. Isn't it bizarre that women, white, predominantly white American women, are the ones that are being demonically duped into embracing and
- [57:03]
James Cadiz
they have no idea.
- [57:04]
Jack
Explain that to me. They have no idea what I mean. There's things that they're going to experience that we can't even talk about on camera right now. There's mutilation.
- [57:14]
James Cadiz
That's part of their religion, 100%. Those same ignorant women that we running around the college campuses putting on their hijabs, thinking that it's something special. I saw one. I saw a black woman sighting. Yeah, she has the kafiyya on.
- [57:32]
Jack
And this is a black woman.
- [57:34]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [57:34]
Jack
A black woman.
- [57:35]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [57:35]
Jack
A black Woman, Islam and black women.
- [57:37]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah. They had the keffiyeh on, wanting to campaign for Bernie Sanders. This was. We were doing some street witnessing in. In Long beach, and they had the booth. The Muslims had a booth. And so there was a black woman there, and she had her kafiyya on. She had the hijab. All kinds of mixed signals. There's nothing tribal about what she's doing. It makes absolutely no sense. And she's sitting there, and there's a sign above her that says, ask me about why I'm a Muslim, or something like that.
- [58:09]
Jack
Wow.
- [58:10]
James Cadiz
So I go up to her. There was a whole crowd of people around her. All the Bernie Sanders supporters are around her or whatever. And I just looked at her and I said, can I just ask you a question? I said, did you know right now that if you were in Egypt trying to do what you were doing right now or any other Muslim country, that you'd be dead? First of all, you're a woman. They would never let you represent them, number one. Number two, you're black. Okay, Exactly. While I'm saying this, people around me are like, ooh, man, this is not uncomfortable. This is not comfortable. This is not comfortable. And there's men behind them speaking Arabic, the kind of Arabic that you hear in Saudi Arabia. I could hear it. It's just. I know exactly where they're from. I know exactly where they're from. And they're saying, I wish I could kill him right now.
- [58:51]
Jack
Absolutely.
- [58:52]
James Cadiz
In Arabic. They're saying it to one another. I wish we could kill him. Kill, kill, kill. Wahd IBN Al Kutta, meaning he's the. I forgot exactly how he said it was a very slang way of saying a guy of the book, you know, kill the Christian. Yeah, I wish I could kill the Christian right now. And I'm just thinking in my mind, I look at that, and I just immediately just start rebuking him in Arabic. And I'm like, you know, yeah, yeah, shame on you. I understand what you're saying, because here's the thing. When I speak English, nobody hears a Middle Eastern accent.
- [59:17]
Jack
That's true.
- [59:17]
James Cadiz
So when I speak Arabic, no one's going to hear an English accent the way I speak typically. So it's kind of funny because I do this, and they're just. They couldn't even deal with it. And what I basically told everybody in this crowd that's listening to this confrontation, as I said, these guys didn't think that I understood the language. So they were saying they wish they could kill me. Did you tell them that to the whole crowd.
- [59:41]
Jack
Oh, you did.
- [59:41]
James Cadiz
To the whole crowd in front of the woman. So I just basically said, you're all duped. And if you're worried about slavery and what Americans did to you, they traded you. They're still trading you.
- [59:52]
Jack
Yep. Number one people.
- [59:54]
James Cadiz
Oh.
- [59:56]
Jack
American, European colonialism and slaves. Do you know where we bought the slaves from? Who were selling slaves in those days?
- [60:05]
James Cadiz
Arabs, Muslims, Arab, North African, Barbary Coast.
- [60:08]
Jack
Barbary coast pirates would scoop up tribal black cultures of North Africa and sell them to the world. Europe and America would buy them. It's horrible. But notice, if they were not being sold, it wouldn't have happened.
- [60:27]
James Cadiz
16,500 black slave traders were in this country at its founding. Like, I want people, like, I just want people to understand that.
- [60:36]
Jack
Yeah.
- [60:36]
James Cadiz
When. When we talk about some of the things that people claim that we did, especially our founding fathers, they don't know the law well enough to understand, nor do they know the spirit of the law and the intent by which it was like, this is the one that I hear all the time. It just drives me nuts. Well, back then, they only counted a black person as half a human being.
- [60:55]
Jack
Yeah, exactly.
- [60:56]
James Cadiz
Or, okay, but do you get why they did that? Do you get the idea that the. The Declaration of Independence and the writing of the constitution provided a 20 year referendum to abolish slavery?
- [61:08]
Jack
Yeah, yeah.
- [61:08]
James Cadiz
Matter of fact, the Republican Party was the abolishment party.
- [61:11]
Jack
That's right. Okay, that's key.
- [61:14]
James Cadiz
They were fearful of the fact that the South.
- [61:16]
Jack
That's right. They wouldn't.
- [61:18]
James Cadiz
Would count votes because of the black people that they owned. And then those votes, they would be able to vote on behalf of their black slaves.
- [61:27]
Jack
Yeah.
- [61:28]
James Cadiz
So their fear was, all you got to do is buy more black slaves. We keep slavery in.
- [61:34]
Jack
That's the South.
- [61:35]
James Cadiz
Legally, that's the South. It was an action that they were doing to try to prevent the south from doing what they thought they could do. But again, nobody wants to talk about the fact that this is all Islamic.
- [61:47]
Jack
That's right.
- [61:48]
James Cadiz
That this is all Muslim activity.
- [61:50]
Jack
100%.
- [61:51]
James Cadiz
And that's why I always laugh when I see these guys. I talked to a guy in the elevator the other day a few years ago. He's listening to me talk to my dad in Arabic. You know, I'm on the phone talking to my dad in Arabic and he looks at me, he goes, hey, brother, Allahu Akbar, my brother. And you know, I'm a Muslim, you know, just like you, because you're speaking Arabic. And I think you're a Muslim. And I just looked at him and I said, you do realize the Muslims hate you. Like, you realize, you go to the Middle east, you realize what they think of you. You know, and that wasn't a pleasant conversation. I mean, I think it was eye opening for him. I think, I think he kind of woke up. But the reality of it is like, people just don't see it for what it really is. And that's why I despise the behavior of people who are now trying to reframe the truth with a completely different agenda. To actually say that Israel is the problem or this is the problem, or that's the problem. I mean to say I'm a Christian and I sit in the bed of Islam defending its uprightness. Are you out of your mind?
- [62:50]
Jack
Insane?
- [62:52]
James Cadiz
You have, you, you, you can call yourself a Christian, but the one thing that you've been able to, you've aptly demonstrated this to the rest of the world is you have no knowledge of the word of God.
- [63:02]
Jack
Right?
- [63:03]
James Cadiz
Not only do you have no knowledge of the word of God, you also have no knowledge of what the Quran is and how it drives people. So my advice to you, you stop, take a break from all the nonsense you're saying. Study the word of God, read the Bible, understand what the word of God says, then maybe you can go back and do this. But listen, I tell this to people all the time. Well, how can I combat Islam? How can I get. Look, here's, here's the answer. Romans 16:19. Be excellent in all that is good. Be innocent of that which is evil. The more you are equipped with the Bible, the better you are equipped to deal with Islam. The Holy Spirit uses that way. Because Islam, all Islam is, is a Christian heresy.
- [63:41]
Jack
Because they invoke Jesus.
- [63:42]
James Cadiz
Not only do they invoke Jesus, but so much of what they teach and what they believe launched from a place in the scriptures. They just took it and they twisted it. Yeah, and I think that's the bigger, that's the bigger issue that very, very few people want to even tackle because they want to claim to be aware and, and you know, understand, but they don't. Yeah, and that's the problem. The lies are the lies. The truth is the truth. And we have to get to the point where we have, we, we have to be willing to acknowledge that we have a problem here. Yeah, we have to be willing to acknowledge that these are the things that. And by the way, don't get me wrong, look, people are going to come and they're going to attack us personally. They're going to hear me say this. I'm not going to listen to a fat guy. He's a pastor, and I'm not going to listen to that. Oh, why am I going to. Okay, but just. Can I challenge you with something? Stop attacking us personally for a second. Stop getting upset about the fringe issues that you're making a deal of, and just ask yourself this. Is it true? Is what I'm saying true? Does it make any kind of sense? The Bible has gone out of its way to give us the foundation for truth.
- [64:46]
Jack
You're thinking rational. They don't think like that.
- [64:48]
James Cadiz
No, no, no, they don't.
- [64:49]
Jack
They cannot question this.
- [64:50]
James Cadiz
They don't. And the problem is we have a whole new generation of Christians that do say they love the Lord, but they're being taught to throw away the Old Testament because they're calling it Jewish. They don't get it. Look, John said this in John 1:1. He said, in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Okay? He later on goes to say, the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, his glory of the only begotten Father. And then he says something very interesting later on in that. In that chapter, verse 14, he says, the law was given to us by Moses.
- [65:23]
Jack
Yes.
- [65:24]
James Cadiz
Verse 14 is what it says. Yep. But grace and truth through Jesus Christ. But if you translate that from the Greek language, you know what it actually says? The law was given to us by Moses. Grace and truth realized in the law through Jesus Christ. That's how it's translated.
- [65:40]
Jack
Yeah. Beautiful.
- [65:41]
James Cadiz
So when Jesus says, I've come to fulfill the law, not destroy it, when he says, I've come to fulfill it every jot and tittle, he means that.
- [65:48]
Jack
Yeah, that's right.
- [65:50]
James Cadiz
And they want to throw away all of that in the name of. Well, we're being controlled by this, you know, whatever. All the blood libels that are going on, all that. But what you don't understand is you don't understand the value of what you've been given. And because you choose to act like a spoiled brat who assumes that everything you have is because of something you've been entitled to.
- [66:14]
Jack
That's right.
- [66:15]
James Cadiz
You don't take the time to understand how thankful you should be. We have what we have because of the Jews. Think about it like this. If I was a man who was homeless, a boy who was homeless, three years old, I got no place to go. I got no Food. Everything is terrible. And a family comes and adopts me. There's two children in that family that are natural born and I'm adopted. And then they adopt my brother and they adopt my sister. And now there's three of us. Three of us. And these two kids that were natural born. I start saying I hate them.
- [66:58]
Jack
Exactly.
- [66:59]
James Cadiz
I'm the real family. You're not the real family. How disrespectful is it?
- [67:02]
Jack
Yeah. You start pushing them out of the house.
- [67:03]
James Cadiz
How disrespectful is it to them? And how disrespectful is it to mom and dad? How disrespectful is it to mom and dad? Look, we have been given this heritage. We've been grafted in.
- [67:14]
Jack
We've been grafted in.
- [67:16]
James Cadiz
The branch doesn't go to the tree and say, I hate you.
- [67:19]
Jack
Yeah. They were the custodians appointed by God to give us the word, the prophets. I have the Bible exactly because of Jews. The Jews gave us the Bible.
- [67:29]
James Cadiz
Here's what I'll say. And I think this is really important and I think everybody should know this, especially the younger generation. Please, please, please. Younger generation. Look, we talk about the younger generation being so entitled and all that, but can I just say this about Gen Zers? I think they're the probably the smartest generation this world has ever seen in many ways. Some of us don't recognize it, but they are the ones that have the greatest potential.
- [67:51]
Jack
Yeah, that's true.
- [67:52]
James Cadiz
It's not a coincidence that God put that generation in the last days.
- [67:55]
Jack
That's right.
- [67:56]
James Cadiz
It's also not a coincidence that the one thing they seem to be struggling with and all have in common is the hatred of Israel because of what they've been fed.
- [68:04]
Jack
That's right.
- [68:04]
James Cadiz
Think about it like this. If I hate these kids and I'm the devil, I hate them. I want to destroy them. I want them to be gone. What's the fastest way to get their blessing ripped off? You know what it is?
- [68:17]
Jack
Yeah.
- [68:18]
James Cadiz
Scapegoat Israel.
- [68:19]
Jack
Yeah.
- [68:19]
James Cadiz
Don't take responsibility. Hang out. Hang out in your. Hang out in your, in your, in your basement. Listen to Nick Fuentes. Listen to this person. Listen to that person. It's Israel's fault if it's all that. Instead of going out and doing the admirable, marry, have children. Go fight the good fight. Go. Look, do you think it's a coincidence that Charlie Kirk was killed at the moment in time that he was killed when he was killed?
- [68:41]
Jack
I don't believe in this at All.
- [68:44]
James Cadiz
We were both personal friends of his. We talked to him on a regular basis. Charlie was beginning to see something that he had not seen at the level that he saw prior to him dying.
- [68:53]
Jack
There's no doubt about it.
- [68:54]
James Cadiz
He was beginning to transform in a way that was remarkable in the sense that he realized that the contention in the political realm was super important. But he also knew that they could not find hope unless they had Christ.
- [69:13]
Jack
That's right. And he knew.
- [69:16]
James Cadiz
He knew because I talked to him about it every day. He knew that they were trying to attack these kids. The enemy was trying to attack these kids by changing their minds on Israel. He knew it.
- [69:26]
Jack
That's right.
- [69:26]
James Cadiz
Oh, did he get frustrated with donors? And that's a whole other bottle of wax. Sure. We have to look at it this way. The enemy is on a rampage.
- [69:35]
Jack
That's right.
- [69:35]
James Cadiz
And he's looking to take our kids away.
- [69:37]
Jack
Yeah, yeah, no doubt.
- [69:39]
James Cadiz
And this is how it's happening. And I think more than ever, we have to stand up for that. We got to pay attention.
- [69:44]
Jack
You were asking about how people think, and what you just said, it's remarkable. So the challenge to parents and young people today is what are the historical landmarks for us to look at so that we don't crash into the same rocks?
- [70:03]
James Cadiz
Yeah, well, there's some good ones.
- [70:04]
Jack
Well, there's some good ones. When you look at them throughout history, ask yourself this question. What group or groups of people hated Israel or the Jewish? Write them down on a piece of paper. What group or peoples love the Jew or were there for the Jew? What does the Bible say about the Jew? Old and New Testament. Paul beautifully says, has God cast them away forever? God forbid. That ought to be enough. Right then and there.
- [70:31]
James Cadiz
Absolutely.
- [70:31]
Jack
Bottom line is, people do not think past their nose. Because when they're yelling and screaming, death to the Jew or from the river to the sea, especially coming from a Western culture person saying that they have no idea that not only is Israel the first line of defense for the west, but without the remarkable blessings that God has given even the unbelieving Jews. Because remember, According to Ezekiel 38, they will not come to believe until Ezekiel 38 happens. But Christians don't want to hear that.
- [71:13]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Matter of fact, God is going to. God said it. Ezekiel 36. He's bringing them in. Unbelief. We know that.
- [71:20]
Jack
Why do people. Exactly how many Christians. Christians, they have pornography there. There's homosexuality in Israel.
- [71:28]
James Cadiz
Bible prophecy.
- [71:29]
Jack
They don't believe. What are you crazy? Sounds like America, but they're exactly not to believe until that veil is lifted. And it sounds like Ezekiel 38 has a tremendous part to do that. That said, when you have lunatics, dark raving crazies like Nick Fuentes, for example, and others like him spewing what they're spewing, I don't. It's almost sounds terrible to say, but I don't get upset about these people that are in the atmosphere. I don't get upset by them. I don't get upset by the replacement theology dudes. We can expose them. We should.
- [72:14]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah, of course.
- [72:15]
Jack
But the bottom line is this. Do you not see? And I know we have to wrap this up. Do you not see, prior to Covid, we're cruising along the church in America. Yeah. You know what? Abortion's always been a debate, and marriage has always been a debate. But apart from those, which are very important, obviously. Covid hits. The church is tested.
- [72:42]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah.
- [72:43]
Jack
Following that, blm.
- [72:45]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [72:46]
Jack
The church is tested. And then it was lbg.
- [72:52]
James Cadiz
Used to be lgbtq.
- [72:55]
Jack
Lmnop.
- [72:56]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [72:56]
Jack
Okay. And then there's mutilation, the trans dissection or bisection of the human body. Now it's Israel. Yep. James, I could make an argument that with each episode, maybe not scientifically in the sense of, well, Covid's a virus.
- [73:19]
James Cadiz
Yeah. Yeah.
- [73:20]
Jack
And BLM is a worldview. So I'm saying this. God doesn't cause any of these. He may allow it.
- [73:31]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah.
- [73:32]
Jack
But he doesn't cause them. But in every situation, every human being has been tested in these areas, and I do not think that Israel right now, being the current test, is a coincidence. It didn't. Israel wasn't where we started. It was Covid. Each of these global shaking events have had their effect in all areas of life. I don't care about that. I have watched the church become streamlined, purified, and perfected with each topic, and I can't think of a greater topic for the church to end her existence on earth to be raptured up. While Israel is the big topic of debate, I would agree. Because God commends the church at Philadelphia for its position, its beliefs. He exposes in the seven letters of the seven churches, which you just wrote a great book about, and I want you to plug it here in a second. But these are not. These are not accidents. And I just think right now, beyond Israel, I don't know what else could be a greater topic. I'm looking for the Lord to take us up anytime. I don't know. I don't know. The day of the hour. Nobody does.
- [74:58]
James Cadiz
Look, here's the thing. And people ask me this all the time because by God's grace, you know, our audience has grown a lot. And one of the questions that I get is I get word from desperate grandmothers, people who are looking to leave same generations legacies for their children. And they're saying, how? How do we reach out to our children? The most common thing I'm hearing people say now, these are people that are podcasting mean well, you name it. So many of them are asking everybody to focus on history. You study history, you learn how to keep yourself from preventing history. And don't get me wrong, you have to know those things. You got to know what our forefathers believed. You've got to know what happened in the past. It's very important to draw parallels from what happened in Nazi Germany to today. All of those things are important. But it may be the most erroneous approach that's being taken right now by the older generation. And I'm going to say this at the risk of people thinking I'm crazy when I say it, but it's important for everybody to understand. If you want to save this generation, you need to get them to focus on Bible prophecy 100%. And people don't get that.
- [76:17]
Jack
Pastor, you are 100% right. But they're going to churches that do not teach 28, 29% of the Bible.
- [76:29]
James Cadiz
It's terrible.
- [76:30]
Jack
Can you imagine? Can you imagine saying, hey, any new people here today at our church? Oh, that's great. We're so happy you're here. Just, we worship the Lord tithes and offerings here in a moment and cheer up. We only teach 75% of the Bible.
- [76:46]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [76:46]
Jack
Could you imagine? Yeah, I'd run out of that. I'd run out of that building. So these kids, you are 100% right. They cannot be ignorant in prophecy because they are in the moment. And yet pastors have abandoned the literal, bona fide doctrine of eschatology. They have left that door.
- [77:05]
James Cadiz
They need to be told that God, before they were born, before their great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great great great great grandfather was born, set them aside to live in the most extraordinary time in human history.
- [77:22]
Jack
That's right.
- [77:22]
James Cadiz
Here's the thing people don't get, and I really, truly believe this spiritual warfare. I think we are in the most intense time of spiritual warfare we've ever had in human history. Next to two only times, only two other times. One is the fall of man in the garden, and the other time is the Death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. I don't think we've seen any other greater time of spiritual warfare than those two times in the time that we're living right now. Both of those times that we talk about a spiritual warfare that we get to study in the Bible and all that were all heavily ridden with declarations made in the prophetic end, the creation of mankind. I mean, think about this. In Genesis, there is a prophecy that talks about the heel being bruised, but the head being crushed.
- [78:06]
Jack
It's the first Bible prophecy, very scripture,
- [78:09]
James Cadiz
Genesis 3:15, one of the very first ones.
- [78:11]
Jack
Eschatological soteriological statement, 100%.
- [78:15]
James Cadiz
Yet in the book of Revelation, we've got more people trying to make an argument that Jesus is black based on his feet being made of brass. When in reality, the statement of his feet being made of brass speaks very specifically of what you read about in the book of Genesis.
- [78:34]
Jack
Absolutely.
- [78:35]
James Cadiz
The final judgment, the crushing of the head. Brass is the tool that was used on all of these altars for judgment.
- [78:45]
Jack
For judgment, the brazen serpent lifted up.
- [78:47]
James Cadiz
Come on, kids want. They're hungry for this. They feel like they have no purpose, which is why they're sitting in these basements and just taking it all in. Because they don't feel like they can be part of any kind of a solution there has. Oh, we're being triple taxed. We don't have an opportunity to buy a home. Wait, hold on for a second. You realize right now is the easiest time in human history to make insane money. Not that it's about making money.
- [79:18]
Jack
We have kids in our church. Kids that are. They make more money in one year than I'll make in my lifetime. They're making tens of thousands of dollars a month.
- [79:29]
James Cadiz
Come on.
- [79:31]
Jack
And they're doing this.
- [79:32]
James Cadiz
Come on.
- [79:33]
Jack
It's.
- [79:34]
James Cadiz
It's easier. It's easier than ever. So it's not. Stop blaming, stop scapegoating, stop saying stand
- [79:42]
Jack
up and go for it.
- [79:43]
James Cadiz
Okay, well, they do. Look at all the money that they make. Look at the fact that they never got sick when everybody else. Not only is it envy and jealousy, but it's like, learn the Bible. The Jews were told how to run business.
- [79:54]
Jack
That's right.
- [79:55]
James Cadiz
God. God taught me through my dad and my grandfather. God taught me how to be a businessman. I admittedly make a good amount of money more outside of the church than I do in the church. The Bible taught them those principles.
- [80:09]
Jack
That's right.
- [80:10]
James Cadiz
So you're shocked if the Jews are the best business people in the world?
- [80:13]
Jack
Yep.
- [80:14]
James Cadiz
They Culturally are using the scriptures.
- [80:16]
Jack
Yep.
- [80:17]
James Cadiz
If you're wondering why everybody died of the plague and the Jews didn't.
- [80:19]
Jack
That's right. Their personal hygiene, ceremonial cleanliness laws, ceremonial cleansing cleanliness kept them from the bubonic plague.
- [80:28]
James Cadiz
What are we talking about here?
- [80:29]
Jack
So instead of everybody saying, can you guys tell us what you're doing in your house? They said, let's kill them. They must be the reasons why there's a plague. It's ridiculous. And this. Listen, I have an iPhone right here.
- [80:42]
James Cadiz
You wouldn't have it if it wasn't for that.
- [80:43]
Jack
And here's the deal. If I circumcise this iPhone, the insides are all Jewish. Tucker Carlson's bashing the Jews on an
- [80:51]
James Cadiz
iPhone on his iPhone.
- [80:52]
Jack
He's holding a Jewish product on his
- [80:54]
James Cadiz
iPhone, taking pictures with it. How do you like the fact that the private jet that he rode into when he flew into Ben Gurion wouldn't be flying if it wasn't for Jews?
- [81:02]
Jack
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [81:04]
James Cadiz
That's the. See, that's the part that's hilarious. But all of it goes back to what does the scripture say about all of this? What does the Bible teach us? We have to go back introspectively and we have to say, okay, I'm not satisfied with something happening in my life right now. I don't like the fact that I'm not making this. I don't like the fact that I can't do this. I don't like the fact that I'm not doing this. What do you. What, what would you rather do? Would you rather complain and say, well, it's this politician. It's that Jew. It's this person. Or would you rather say, okay, Lord, yeah, sure. You promised me this.
- [81:36]
Jack
That's right.
- [81:36]
James Cadiz
Sure. I went on a walk with my wife many, many years ago when we had bought our first home together. And we were in this really, really nice neighborhood. Very, very nice neighborhood. And my wife hinted at the fact, knowing that we had just adopted some children. And she'd hinted at the fact that, you know, I think it'd be nice to live in this, you know.
- [81:56]
Jack
Sure.
- [81:56]
James Cadiz
In this neighborhood. Well, my wife didn't know it at the time, but what I instantly started doing is sweating and crying. I'm in front of my Bible and I'm saying, lord, show me you gave wisdom to Solomon the drink. There were kings. Solomon. What would be the amount of trillions of dollars today to get wisdom from him?
- [82:18]
Jack
Right.
- [82:19]
James Cadiz
Show me. Show me how in business from the scriptures.
- [82:22]
Jack
That's right.
- [82:23]
James Cadiz
I can make this work.
- [82:24]
Jack
That's right.
- [82:24]
James Cadiz
By God's grace, in a year and a half, we were there.
- [82:26]
Jack
That's right.
- [82:28]
James Cadiz
And I have nothing to do with it. It's all the Lord.
- [82:30]
Jack
It's all the Lord. He gets all the glory.
- [82:32]
James Cadiz
Everybody has the opportunity to take advantage of it, especially in this country. And if you will take the time to understand what the Bible says about your future, the opportunities, what Bible prophecy says about all of this, you're leaving all of that in the dirt. And actually, I think. I really, truly think that's why the enemy's attacking so hard, because I think we're at the cusp of it. Look, this is how you beat the AI problem.
- [82:55]
Jack
That's exactly correct.
- [82:56]
James Cadiz
The AI problem gets beat when you learn to understand what AI can't do.
- [83:01]
Jack
Yeah, that's right.
- [83:01]
James Cadiz
And what AI can't do predominantly centers around anticipatory function. You might think it does based on some algorithmic conclusion that it makes, but it's never going to understand how to put A and B together, because it doesn't have the soul of man.
- [83:15]
Jack
You know, it's amazing. I know. We got to wrap this up. This is a podcast for some other time.
- [83:19]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [83:20]
Jack
Is bringing up some of the conversations and data that people like Elon Musk, but people that are way deeper into the AI world that are now speaking about it. And the more I listen to these guys, these creators of AI and the owners of these companies, when they get nervous about what they've created, I mean, it's pretty terrifying.
- [83:49]
James Cadiz
Oh, sure.
- [83:50]
Jack
I mean, I don't understand it because I'm dumb. They understand it and they're scared.
- [83:55]
James Cadiz
Yeah.
- [83:55]
Jack
That said.
- [83:56]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [83:58]
Jack
I just see. I see the image of the beast being an AI apparatus, but it lacks the soul.
- [84:06]
James Cadiz
Yes.
- [84:07]
Jack
That makes it a perfect candidate to be possessed by demonic activity and manipulated by demons. I think Satan, of course, will inhabit the Antichrist, but the image of the beast, Revelation tells us that it's going to appear to be alive.
- [84:25]
James Cadiz
Yep.
- [84:26]
Jack
I just. This is my crazy guess. Idols. The connection that Paul warned the Corinthians about. Don't pray to idols. You're praying to demons. Demons are always looking for something to inhabit. I would not be surprised if Legion, so to speak, possesses the image of the beast because it lacks that soul. You're exactly correct.
- [84:54]
James Cadiz
Think about this, Jack. This is, like, really important and something everybody needs to grasp. We know the Antichrist is an actual man, so there's no way he could be AI.
- [85:02]
Jack
That's right.
- [85:03]
James Cadiz
You know, the false prophet is an actual man. So we know it can't be AI the image of the beast. That's a whole other story. You know, we're talking about something that appears to be mechanical but has some sign of life. But AI absolutely can be at the core of it. And here's the part that's even scarier than what most people even in the Bible prophecy world are talking about right now. And that's this. And it's probably because they just don't understand it. If you know what large language models are doing right now. And generative models to understand they are a deep reflection of all of human history. Hello. Okay. Without.
- [85:39]
Jack
This is Babel.
- [85:41]
James Cadiz
Yes, it is. It literally is the modern day tower of Bible.
- [85:44]
Jack
It is.
- [85:45]
James Cadiz
Because look at what God did. When God judged those that were building the Tower of Babel, he dispersed them by breaking up their language.
- [85:52]
Jack
That's right.
- [85:53]
James Cadiz
God said it. Most people miss this in Genesis. God said it. There is nothing in their mind.
- [85:58]
Jack
Nothing that they will not be able to do.
- [86:00]
James Cadiz
That's right.
- [86:01]
Jack
If they're able to speak the same language.
- [86:03]
James Cadiz
That's right.
- [86:03]
Jack
And AI language.
- [86:06]
James Cadiz
I can. I can do it right now.
- [86:08]
Jack
Man has created a God in his own image.
- [86:11]
James Cadiz
Well, you use it. We preach in English and our message go in 18 different languages.
- [86:19]
Jack
Winds up in. Yeah. Winds up in India and Arabia and Sounds remarkable.
- [86:26]
James Cadiz
We're in the same condition of Genesis 11 again. We're there.
- [86:32]
Jack
That's such an indicator of the last days.
- [86:34]
James Cadiz
And I mean, come on. How about look at the days of Noah and the days of lot. Two distinctly different situations. The days of Noah, the sign of judgment. Yeah. And. But think about this. I'll take it. I will go out on a limb and say doesn't even have anything to do with how evil the days are. Look, Noah is building this ark because God's going to judge the world for generation after generation after generation. Probably five generations. They're seeing Noah build this ark and they're probably calling him crazy. They're ignoring him at the time of judgment. They're eating, drinking, being merry.
- [87:12]
Jack
Yeah.
- [87:12]
James Cadiz
Like nothing is wrong. Nothing could go wrong. The days are getting darker. They're ignoring. The rain comes down, the floods come up, they perish. What was the sign of judgment to them that they were staring at for a hundred years was the symbol of salvation to the one that was seeking God.
- [87:29]
Jack
120 years. That ship sat there in that guy's driveway.
- [87:32]
James Cadiz
We are seeing it right now. We talk about the Rapture, we talk about the second coming. We talk About Bible prophecy. We are literally building the ark all over again. And the people, as in the days of Noah, are eating and drinking and being merry and doing all the evil, not recognizing because they're mocking. Oh, they've been. Noah's been building that ark for years.
- [87:52]
Jack
Where's the promise of Father?
- [87:54]
James Cadiz
It's exactly right. And the days of Lot are even scarier because when Jesus talks about the days of lot, he's not talking about again, the wickedness. And it was wicked. It was about the fact that there were. There was a righteous man in a city that was so emotionally tied and preoccupied with that city that even his own family struggled with not looking back.
- [88:16]
Jack
That's right.
- [88:17]
James Cadiz
And if you notice, they hang out in a cave just so he could kind of see what was going on. He still couldn't separate himself from it. And what are we doing right now? Look at the church. Look at how much the church. You got guys that are saying, unhitch yourself from the Old Testament.
- [88:30]
Jack
Yeah, well,
- [88:32]
James Cadiz
that's. We are in the days of Noah and Lot.
- [88:34]
Jack
See, when a pastor says that kind of stuff.
- [88:37]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah,
- [88:40]
Jack
maybe I'm over simplistic. But Jesus says, my sheep, hear my voice.
- [88:43]
James Cadiz
Follow me.
- [88:44]
Jack
The moment that Pastor A.C. said that. Or as. What's his name?
- [88:52]
James Cadiz
No, no, as.
- [88:53]
Jack
Yeah, as soon as. As said that.
- [88:55]
James Cadiz
Could be A.C. no, no.
- [88:57]
Jack
Yeah. As soon as he said that, Jesus sheep would have gotten up and walked out.
- [89:07]
James Cadiz
Oh, come on.
- [89:08]
Jack
Those who stay there. Listen, I'm going to borrow from Walter Martin. Remember Walter Martin?
- [89:12]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah, I remember Walter Martin. This is awesome. Yeah. His daughter used to go to my church.
- [89:17]
Jack
I've met some grandkids or somebody here on campus. Yeah. So listen. So Walter Martin used to say, you should be grateful for the cult down the street from this church. What kind of a statement is that? Why would I be grateful for the cult down the street from the church? Walter Martin, the way that only he could do it. He said, because they have a hunger for spiritual things, but they don't want the truth. So if they weren't at that cult down the street, they would be in your church messing it all up. And I thought, there's Walter Martin.
- [89:50]
James Cadiz
That's hilarious.
- [89:50]
Jack
Is that.
- [89:51]
James Cadiz
It's a brilliant story.
- [89:52]
Jack
It's almost like. Exactly. So you think about what's going on right now. Again, God is getting his bride ready. People are departing from doctrine. You can pray for them. But I got to tell you, I'm not crying over this. He's cleaning his church. Oh, you know this guy? He Stopped going to church. He got into the occult. Well, you can pray for him, but we're living in those days where the tares are being separated from the wheat. Right, quickly plug the book. And in fact, I want you to plug it so well that we want to mark the date of this podcast release and then look to see what kind of spike I want this book to sell out. It's been doing great.
- [90:34]
James Cadiz
Yeah, by God's grace. So it's a book. It's called the Last Book. It's been several years in the making.
- [90:40]
Jack
So that means you can't write any more books?
- [90:41]
James Cadiz
Yeah, no, no. So it was gonna be one whole book and we had to break it up into two just because of how big it became. It's my teacher.
- [90:52]
Jack
So the Last book, Volume two is coming?
- [90:54]
James Cadiz
Yeah, yeah. And it won't be volume two, actually. It's going to be. Oh, I wish. I'll tell you afterwards what the title is gonna be. It's gonna be awesome. You're gonna love it. But basically, I am teaching people through the Book of Revelation. And so this book called the Last Book goes through the first 10 chapters of the Book of Revelation. And I spend an exorbitant amount of time educating the reader on the Old Testament so that they can better interpret what's happening in the New Testament. Now, we do go over some of the linguistic issues. There's a lot of original language stuff that I spend a lot of time talking about, and I even talk about the nuances that exist between the Hebrew language and the Greek language and some of the old Bible language problems. And I promise, everybody, like, I promise I worked very hard on this, it's not going to go over anybody's head. You're going to. You're going to read it. It's going to be very, very simple. We've got a lot of great, really, really great responses. You can go to james cadiz.com and you can find it there, or you go to Amazon and just type in my name.
- [91:55]
Jack
And that's the best.
- [91:56]
James Cadiz
The Last Book. Yeah, the best.
- [91:58]
Jack
Amazon.
- [91:58]
James Cadiz
Amazon, that's right.
- [91:59]
Jack
As crazy as they are, we have
- [92:01]
James Cadiz
it on hardback and paperback and we have the Kindle edition. We have an audio version that will be coming out. Version 2, or the second book, we think will come out sometime around June or July. It's already been done. It's just a matter of us doing all the edits and all that. It's taken so much, but I think that people will be blessed with it.
- [92:21]
Jack
So everybody go to Amazon or James Cadiz. And you're going to want to buy the last book by James Cadiz. And yeah, if you do Amazon, it's a weird thing because Amazon actually, if you do well at Amazon, it actually, Amazon is like a wheel. If he sells a lot at Amazon, then Amazon, it actually spools it up. It gets more traction, it pops up the list. People buy it more. And we all know that Amazon is a stark raving lunatic thing, but so is Ford Motor Company.
- [92:56]
James Cadiz
Well, you can also get it cheap. You could also get it cheaper on Amazon because if you get it, a lot of people are going directly to my site to get it. But because at the time they were, Amazon couldn't keep up at the time. I don't know if that's the case now. There was some issues going back and forth with the printers and all that. But if you go to Amazon, it'll be cheaper and the shipping is free. So I would just recommend that you do that.
- [93:16]
Jack
The last book.
- [93:16]
James Cadiz
Yeah, the last book. And we're very excited about it. The hope behind writing the book is to get people to fall in love with prophecy. Bible prophecy again.
- [93:25]
Jack
Gosh, not too long ago, I. I did, I guess it was a podcast,
- [93:32]
James Cadiz
I think three hour video. I'm not, I haven't finished watching it. The Revelation video, it took me three hours.
- [93:38]
Jack
Somebody, people responded to us. I made some comment, I'll never do it again. I made some comment like, you know what, I should sit down sometime and read the book of Revelation. And five minutes later I forgot I had ever said it. Then people were commenting. My team told me, you know, people want you to do it. They want you to do it. And I said, okay, let's do it. Let me tell you something. It's one thing to sit down for three hours and read a book without talking.
- [94:04]
James Cadiz
Oh, yeah, I know it's work.
- [94:06]
Jack
But I spoke to these cameras and
- [94:08]
James Cadiz
I got to tell you, it was done masterfully.
- [94:10]
Jack
Nobody knows this.
- [94:11]
James Cadiz
It was done well.
- [94:12]
Jack
I didn't drink enough water while I was doing it. And I gotta tell you, I woke up the next morning, I felt like someone had beat my back my kidneys with rocks. I mean, I felt I was so painful in my kidneys because the lack
- [94:28]
James Cadiz
of water, that takes a lot out of you.
- [94:31]
Jack
I couldn't believe it. And so Max McLean gets up and does screw tape letters for three hours and never stops. I don't know how he does that, but. But wow, great job. We love you.
- [94:43]
James Cadiz
Thank you.
- [94:43]
Jack
And it's an honor. It's been a long time.
- [94:45]
James Cadiz
Yeah. And I love you tremendously. I. I've always been blessed by your ministry, and you've always been an inspiration to me. I'm super honored to be able to do this. It's like you said, it's a long time coming. And I, you know, just to see how God's blessed you and how he's rewarded you for the stand that you've taken. Most people will never know this. They're more. They're not going to know it. Not that you're ever going to say it, but, man, you've been through some horrible things because of. Because of your stand.
- [95:13]
Jack
He's good.
- [95:14]
James Cadiz
So it's good to see how God's just bless you. Look around at this studio. I'm like, my mind is blown.
- [95:18]
Jack
It's insane.
- [95:19]
James Cadiz
I cannot believe how beautiful the studio is. It's. It's amazing.
- [95:23]
Jack
The Lord has exploded this thing.
- [95:24]
James Cadiz
God's faithful. He's faithful. Yeah. So thank you, bro.
- [95:28]
Jack
Thank you.
- [95:28]
James Cadiz
Oh, man. Such a blessing.
- [95:29]
Jack
I love you.
- [95:30]
James Cadiz
I love you too, brother.
