Israel Under Fire: Biblical History to Modern War 0:02 We wanna honor God because He sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the God of all things possible. He's the God of all0:22 miracles.0:56 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle. I'm Michelle Humphries. And I am Naina Keegan. Welcome to our broadcast today. We are filming live at NRV in Nashville, Tennessee. It is the1:07 largest gathering of Christian communicators in the world, and we have a very special guest with us today, Michelle. We absolutely love this guest all the way from Jerusalem,1:19 the man that knows Israel like none other that will tell you the truth about what's actually happening in Israel. Please welcome Chris Mitchell.1:30 Wow. Michelle and I, great to be with you.1:33 We have had you on the show several times Yeah. And we love everything that you bring to our viewers the truth, but it's so good to be with you live and in person. And so, of course, we we wanna know everything that's1:44 going on in Israel, in Jerusalem1:47 Yeah. You1:47 know, with all the headlines and and everything. Plus, you have a documentary that's working on.1:53 So1:53 tell us about that.1:54 Well, it's called Israel Under Fire, History, Prophecy, and What You Need to Know. And it's born out of 2 things. First of all, last August, we celebrated 25 years of reporting, from Israel.2:06 Congratulations. Yeah. Thank you. That's amazing. Wow.2:09 Felt it was important to do a video series on the 25 years of reporting. But it's morphed into more, a way to help pastors and Christians understand Israel from a2:21 biblical, a prophetic, historical point of view after 2 and a half years of accusations, misinformation, and lies, against Israel since October 7. It's just not2:33 a kinetic battle on 7 fronts, which would include the Houthis and Hamas and Hezbollah, Judea and Samaria, Syria and Iraq, and also Iran. But the eighth is an2:44 information war, and, really, Israel has been under attack, under assault on that front in a major way since October seventh. So it's a way to help pastors and2:56 believers understand from those points of view, historical, biblical. It's, it starts with Abraham to today's headlines. Wow. We filmed a a segment up in Elon Morey, which3:08 is where Abraham first, God appeared first to Abraham, promised him the land. Now that makes today's headlines make sense if you understand the biblical3:19 foundations of Israel. Second segment is called October seventh and the battle for truth. We talked to holoc not holocaust survivors, but survivors of October seventh in the Novo Music Festival3:31 from Kibbutz Noreen, what it was like that day. We talked to a a reserve sergeant major who fought in Gaza for more than 400 days. What was it like? What was it like to fight Hamas,3:43 and why did the IDF actually wage the war in a way to protect Palestinian civilians many times at the risk of IDF soldiers? That's not a story you've heard3:55 in the mainstream media.3:56 No. Exactly.3:57 We talk also about Palestine from the river to the sea. What is Palestine, and is it the home of the, quote, Palestinians? What's the truth behind that? We talk about the miracle of Israel. We talk4:09 about Christian persecution in the region. We talk about prophecy unfolding in the Middle East. This the last segment is called Rendezvous in Jerusalem, a call to pastor's prayer and prophecy. What4:20 people need to know that Jerusalem is really the epicenter and also the closing act of this great story is in Jerusalem.4:30 The Earth's hot spot. So, how will it be distributed?4:34 Well, right now, people can go to chris mitchell news dot com. Chris mitchell news, all 1 word, dot com. We've already started 1 of the series, but we're gonna re release it in the spring so people can4:45 sign up, get more information about that and what, what they need to know about Israel.4:50 That's amazing because people, I I feel like there's just such a divide as you know. Of course, it's it's even biblical. But, you know, all the antisemitism and the pro Hamas, even here in theIran's Regime on the Brink 5:02 United States and, you know, people really need to know the truth about what's going on. And, you know, and then now we're hearing all of these things about Iran and how that's all heating up again. Yeah. And, you know,5:13 I remember the last time you were on our show, I asked you if you thought the the peace deal, if you thought they were gonna adhere to it and you said no. And so, you know, here we are. And so what do you think is5:25 gonna happen with all of that? Like, you know, because they're they're, you know, they're threatening so many things. Yeah. And, you know, what do you what do you think is going to happen with that? Do you have an idea5:34 or how Yeah. Is Israel gonna go it alone? Are we gonna go in there? What what's gonna happen?5:39 Well, before I mention that, just when we were talking about a pastor I've talked to, he's a very advocate for Israel, and he was talking to another pastor who said he he doesn't teach about Israel because he's5:51 afraid he doesn't know enough. So after he if he preaches on Israel, maybe somebody's gonna come up to him and ask him a question he doesn't know how to answer. So that's part of the reason behind the series. To6:02 answer your question, I think right now we're sort of in a waiting game and have been for weeks, if not months. And it's funny. In Israel, some people are asking each other, well, is6:14 the war gonna begin this weekend? And, it's really that kind of, living on the edge of what may happen. I particularly think that, the negotiations with Iran6:26 will not succeed. The, the lines that the, I believe, the White House has set for Iran are so egregious to Iran that they couldn't accept them. In other words, if they end their6:38 nuclear program, no more ballistic missiles, if they stop defunding their proxies in the region. I don't think Iran can actually accept that. So I think, eventually, the negotiations will6:50 continue for a few more weeks, and then, I believe there actually will be a US attack against Iran. This this is my sense, anyway. I do believe it might include,7:02 Israel and all that in a way that might really need a tipping point for Iran. Now this regime has lasted 47 years. It's been such7:13 a a dictatorship oppressing the people, and the people since December 20 eighth have been brave and courageous to go out in the streets. And we know now maybe7:25 40, 50000 have been murdered by the regime. It's7:29 unbelievable.7:29 And, maybe up up over 300000 have been injured. More than 10000 blinded purposely by the regime. These people are scarred for life.7:41 And the hope and the prayer for many of those is that this will be the tipping point that the regime could change, and they could finally have the freedom after nearly 50 years.7:51 Well, what happens to Iran and to the Iranian people if the government topples? Like, what do you see happening there?8:01 Well, it could be very messy. I mean, for this, any transition like this. Inside Iran during these, demonstrations, the 1 name that seems to predominate is Reza Khalavi. He's8:13 the son of the former Shah. He's been in exile, the crown prince for since the revolution. He seems to be the 1 leader that people could coalesce, behind8:24 in inside Iran. He says he wants to be a transitional leader, that he would, you know, take over and then lead to some sort of secular democracy. We will see. That's why it's so8:36 important to pray because, you know, prayer can make a difference. We know what happened in 19 89 when the Berlin Wall fell. That was kinda messy, but it it led to freedom8:48 for so many people in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.8:52 Well, and we know that, you know, also biblical prophecy on Israel and, like, Ezekiel 38, we see, you know, and so we we have to, kind of9:03 understand and realize that some of these things are just going to happen because they're supposed to happen. Yeah. Right? And that's kind of a hard pill to swallow sometimes because when you realize that. But then, you9:14 know, when we realize that, you know, it's all for good in a way that, you know, God's gonna gather his people back home and all these other things, but, you know, where do you think we are on that front? Like, what do9:25 you think on end times? Where do you think we are?9:27 We can think close. Closer and closer.9:29 Can you believe? I know.9:31 Oh, yeah.9:31 You can't believe some of the sentences that we say, like, that are actually happening in the world like you you you think, I can't believe we could actually speak them.9:40 Yeah.9:41 You know, like, what's that these things are happening. You know, like, even socialism coming to America and all these, you know, this this such antisemitism right now, this hatred. And it's just it's9:53 unheard of. Don't you? I mean, like, it's to be living it. We've heard it. Yeah. Yeah. But now, it's to be so so it's it's it's so spreading like a virus everywhere. It'sEnd Times Signs and Islamic Infiltration 10:04 It's like Peter when, during the day of Pentecost, when he said, this is that. This is what the prophet Joel said would happen. And I think we're living in those days Yeah. Where this is that, what Jesus said would10:15 happen. Yes, God. Wars and rumors of wars, nation rising against nation. You know, we see we see that happening in our lives. You almost have to pinch yourself, but we are alive at these days. So10:27 what is our responsibility? What do we need to do as believers? And how do we prepare ourselves? How do we prepare our families?10:34 What do you say to that? What is your answer to that?10:37 My answer would be draw close to the Lord. Amen. Be intimate with him. We need to hear his voice. We're gonna need to hear the voice of Holy Spirit more than ever, I believe. So we need to spend time with him, time in10:49 the word, time with each other, close knit families and communities, home groups. That's my sense.10:56 I know that the American church has spent, you know, probably every day praying for the people of Israel to know Jesus.11:09 Where are we on that front? It does it look like there may be a revival at all or is it just kind of business as usual?11:16 Well, no. I think I since October seventh, I think there's been a revival not necessarily in Jews coming to Yeshua or Jesus, but having a renewal of their faith, this11:28 especially for those soldiers that have been on the front lines in Gaza. Many of them talk about miracles that they've seen and experienced. We see that many of the survivors of the the11:40 the, hostages speak of the haven't seen the presence of God or experiencing Wow. The presence of God in the tunnels. Many of them were, almost forced to convert, but11:52 they didn't, and many of them kept Shabbat during their time in the tunnels. So remarkable stories of miracles. Where we are in that line in terms of, there12:03 are believers that are there are Jews that are coming back to Yeshua, but, but in the church or I would say the Messianic body, is growing, strengthening inside,12:15 Israel, but we're seeing remarkable things, that is 1 of them right now.12:20 What do you think about America right now, with this the Muslim ideology kind of taking over? As we see New York, we even see Dallas, Texas, a huge, you know,12:32 area in an infiltration and, you know, with their their their loudspeaker prayers are happening and these these mosques being built everywhere. Yeah. And, and, of course, you know, Minnesota and, you know,12:44 everywhere that we're we're seeing all these things. So what do you think, you know, like, as far as, like, that ideology, you you know, like, sweeping in, you know, and coming against12:55 Christianity in general? And, you know, what so what what do you think as far as, like, Iran and Israel and then, like, seeing the the Muslim takeover here, like, what do you what do you say to13:07 that? What do you think about that? Like, what what is happening in America?13:11 I think that that is probably 1 of the major battles that America is facing, if not the world. We see what's happening in Europe right now13:21 Okay.13:21 Yeah. With the mass immigration and, in the UK in particular, where there are, I think, about 90 Sharia courts, where there are many Muslims that are now mayors of13:33 major cities inside the UK. We see New York City now, the mayor is Muslim, and they say quite openly Yes. What their agenda is.13:45 Yes.13:45 They they don't wanna associate with Christians and Jews. They wanna, establish Sharia law in the in the whole earth, and they're doing what they can to subvert our13:57 educational institutions by spending billions of dollars in higher education, you know, manipulating the media, all designed to help establish a caliphate in the14:09 world. It could sound, you know, fantastic for, you know, maybe it's something you couldn't imagine, but they say quite clearly and openly what they wanna14:21 do. And I think that's that's exactly 1 of the major battles. It's really a battle for our civilization.14:27 Do you think go ahead. It's a full blown battle in the United States. I mean, they are getting a foothold here, and they are normalizing their radical14:39 ideology. And they're running for office. Even in conservative Texas where we live14:47 Yeah.14:47 We're seeing it and they're winning,14:50 which is shocking. And I14:51 think it has to do with all of the money that has been spent, for example, by Qatar14:57 Yeah.14:58 Changing how people view that ideology. And I I just can't believe that they're going to be able to pull this off. It seems like15:09 America should wake up, you know, because if you look at it all over the world, oh my goodness. It doesn't work anywhere. I even heard that the United Arab Emirates will15:21 not send give their students visas. Have you heard that? Because they don't want to the UK? Yeah. Because they don't want their students radicalized. Like, what?15:31 That's stunning.15:31 I think if you think about it, kicking, you know, Christianity out of everything and kicking prayer out of everything and and so I I don't understand why there's such15:43 hypocrisy. Like, why is that all allowed and funded? And, you know, most of our taxpayer dollars, most of these people are illegal and living off of our taxpayer dollars and our government and that these15:55 things are allowed. And do you believe as a result of all of this infiltration that there will be an attack of some kind on America? Because I16:07 almost feel like right now, we already are. I feel like there's it's like an infiltration. I feel like there's a lot of things that are happening to America, like that silent attack that's already here, you16:18 know. So what what do you think about that? You know, you hear things about sleeper cell attacks and all these different things happening.16:28 Sleeper cells certainly in the United States right now, whether Hezbollah or Iranian saloon for cells. I think sometimes the more dangerous, infiltration is the infiltration that would16:40 be silent and, slow and steady, that would, so before people would actually wake up, you know, they are taking over some public offices or they are manipulating the16:52 media and the education system. I think that could be more dangerous because, it might not be a a jarring thing like 9 11. Now 9 11 woke people up. Maybe not17:03 as long17:03 as they should have been, but it it we're as jarring. So I think that could be the the more thing. I think the thing people need to do is wake up. Be and wake up and to see what is happening and be17:15 educated on what is happening.17:17 And how to pray and get people to the to vote and to pay attention to the small elections where they sort of, you know, worm their way in and Yeah. Yeah. It's because that's the17:29 thing about these ideology groups, like, they they stand together. They unite.17:35 Yeah.17:35 And then they all vote as a block.17:37 That's right.17:37 And they just they they take so much ground.17:40 They've done that in the UK.17:42 Well, when you say wake up, what is what does that look like in real life, Chris?17:49 I think be informed. Know what's going on. I think shows like you have, hopefully, what CBN does as well to educate people and give them, the truth of what's actually happening. I think that would be the18:01 first step. And then take that information and do whatever you feel the Lord wants you to do. As you say, maybe get involved in politics because they have a clear agenda, and,18:13 and they they're they're they're working that out right now. I think it was over 40 Muslims that were, voted into office throughout the US in the last elections, including New York City.18:26 And people are just, like, oblivious, it seems to and or they don't think, like, you know, why not try socialism and all the free stuff? We're we're already seeing I was seeing on the news last night where, you18:38 know, Mondami was saying, we're gonna have to raise property taxes because they have this, like, 6000000000 dollar deficit. So none of this free stuff is free. Right? Yeah. Yeah. And so they're18:49 already gonna start to see Right. What happens. What do you think is gonna happen with Gaza? You know, is it gonna be the Riviera? Are we are we gonna have some Trump hotels there? What's gonna happen? I just I'm19:01 curious.19:02 I I don't think so just yet, but just 1 last point about who've been talking. This is not an attack against Muslims.19:08 Right. Exactly. This is19:09 information Yes. About certain Muslims that are aligning up often with, people on the far left or the left that have an agenda, and we need to understand and know what that19:21 agenda is. So this is not an attack against, Muslims. No. Not at all. This is an information so you can we can be informed because this is really a battle for19:33 civilization. I just came from a, a conference. It was called the Judeo Christian Zionist Congress based on the model of the first Zionist Congress in 18 97 by Theodore Herzl. And19:44 it's Jews and Christian leaders coming together understanding that Western civilization is in peril, and it's so incumbent for Jews and Christians who are the focus of the19:56 attacks of radical Islam to join together and, and help fight this battle in the information, battlefield.20:05 That's amazing.20:06 Yeah. To your question about Gaza, I don't think there's gonna be the river of the of the Middle East, although we've No20:12 golf course. No golf course.20:13 No. Right now,20:14 not just yet. Right now, it's in a bit of a a stag. It's it's sort of in a static place right now. Israel controls 53 percent of the Gaza Strip.20:26 Hamas controls 47 percent of it. Right now, there is this sense that Hamas is supposed to disarm. Hamas says they won't disarm, but who can disarm Hamas? The only ones that really could do it20:38 is the IDF. There's this talk about what's called the ISF, International Stabilization Force. The only country that's, volunteered 8000 of their,20:50 soldiers, I think, is Indonesia or and so that that won't be the solution. It's gonna be a very hard decision, I think, right now. I think first Iran is gonna be taken care of.21:03 Well, I think so I think Gaza right now is a bit on the back burner before Iran is taken care of. Now I talked to, an Israeli at this congress, and he said, first, we hope we take care of Iran,21:14 then we take care of Hezbollah, and then we take care of Hamas. That's his progression of what they wanna see. We'll see, but I but Gaza, I don't believe is gonna be that Riviera, the Mediterranean just21:26 yet.21:27 I love it. Trump's, you know, description of how he wants Yeah. This beautiful property. Okay. That's gonna get in there and make it It really is beautiful property. Yes. He's always thinking with his business21:39 real estate hat on, you know. So Yeah. So but that would be it would be nice if something like that at the, you know, at the end of the day. Yeah. You know, could, you know I I I hear and maybe you would know,21:51 but you hear that, is there a big issue over Gaza because of oil? Is is Gaza rich in oil? Is that the big issue there? I don't know if that's true or not. That's why I'm asking.22:02 It could be it could be off off shore. Yeah. But I hadn't heard there was actually an inside Gaza.22:07 Yeah. I heard that that was kind of, you know, that's why you don't really know22:11 what what22:11 to believe. I didn't know if you would if you knew any of that but Yeah. You know, I there you know, is that part of the the the, you know, big grievance and the big fighting there?
