"I wanted to continue my conversation with rabbi Jonathan Khan, and everybody said, no, we hate that guy. I said, you can't say that he's right here. Welcome, Jonathan Khan. Listen, the conversation with you that we've been having about your new book, the return of the gods. I really wanted to just keep going because it is so rich. Let me ask you a question before we get into the more substantive stuff. But because I didn't ask it in the first hour, but where did you get the idea or how do you form the idea for a book like the return of the gods? Again, your thesis is that these ancient false gods, these ancient deities which are demonic powers have come to America with a vengeance, but at what point did you begin putting these pieces together? How does that work for you? Yeah. Well, I mean, a lot of times with the books, Eric, something comes, and then it leads to the next and the next and the next and the next. I can never reproduce that process. With this, actually, I look back the year after I wrote the harbinger, I actually shared it with Israel, the congregation I lead in Jersey. It was actually a message called the dark Trinity. And I now I never got as deep, but I didn't open it, but I knew I knew that I knew the what Jesus said when he gave that parable. I knew about the turning back when you turn back that wasn't just for a person. That applies to civilization. That parable, 'cause I want to be clear with the audience. I don't know where it is in the gospels, but when Jesus says that a demon is cast out and if the person who's had the demon cast out or whatever, it does not change. And in a sense, live rightly, then 7 more demons will come back or the demo will come back with 7 more demons, and it'll be far worse than it was. And you make the case, I think, very persuasively that that is what has happened to the United States of America. Yeah, yeah. I mean, look, we know this is happening. And we haven't had really so many examples in history. We had a process of christianization at the beginning of this age. And it has been a quote Christian civilization, certainly Christian based. But now we're witnessing something of great magnitude, where witnessing a massive turning away from America and the west. Now, we've seen it in specialized cases like Nazi Germany, like the Soviet Union. And we saw how demonic that got. But now we're watching it on a massive scale. So what's going to happen if we turn away from this faith? What's going to be left? Well, according to that principle, is that it's going to be worse in the end. And when you empty outcomes, it's kind of like we've been watching a mass exorcism of God in our culture. We've been exercising the spirit of God, driving him out. Well, something's coming in. In the early 60s, they said, okay, we'll just take prayer out of school. I think lots of little thing. Look at what has come now into school. So it's never going to the house is never remaining empty. And so where is this all leading? Well, actually, let me just say because this, I only thought of this in the last year when I came out with my book as atheism dead. The cover of the book is what they call uru boros, it's this, it's a picture of a snake swallowing its own tail. And I thought to myself, there's a logic. This is the reason in some ways it's easy to talk about this. You're talking about this thing called reality. And no matter which way you go, all you have to do is follow the truth, and the truth is the truth. So when you remove God, so somebody who says, well I'm an atheist or I don't believe you. When you take God away, the idea would be like, well, we're just going to be neutral. We're not going to have, you know, we're just going to be neutral. And you realize, no, no, that's not what happens. When you take God away, you bring in a spirit of nihilism, a spirit of nothingness, a spirit that says, who's to say what truth is, I determine what truth is. It always leads in dramatically dark directions. Yes. And that's the case you're making. It's like, you know, in the 60s when they took prayer out of the schools and they do this and do that. They have no idea what they are unleashing. And you and I have lived through these decades. We have watched the result of when you push the lord of hosts out of American schools and culture and government, what eventually comes in is a nightmare. Yes. And to the point, we alluded to that point that people who are not even Christians are saying that what is going on, this is crazy, it's irrational. It's not a secularism. It's irrational. Look at what is now coming into kindergartens. This is what happened. But in the Bible, it's what happened. When Israel turned away from God, they didn't come to nothing. It didn't come to neutrality. It went to these guys. And the thing that the thing that I saw when I started, I knew I had to do it. I knew the time was now, because I knew it's racing to this. But when I did it, then I started open, then it started opening up, it's not. It's specific. It's exact. It's specific patterns specific, even the mythology of these gods is manifested in what we're seeing. The same ones affecting everything and when you take on out, it always ends up to death. It always ends up to destruction. Destruction of family, destruction of marriages. We watched it all, once you take out God, and it hasn't stopped. And it's and again, folks, you have to understand that it's always presented in a reasonable way. For example, if somebody makes the case for same sex marriage, they say, what harm will it do, it's not going to affect your marriage. And these things are simply not true. If they were true, then you could say, okay, in America, you can do as you like. And as long as it doesn't affect other people, you don't have to agree with my morality. You do what you like, but the point is these things always always always lead beyond what even many of their well intentioned proponents believed. I mean, we've heard a gay activist, whether it's Andrew Sullivan or others say like, we had no idea that it was going to go in this direction. We're sorry. We didn't, you know, there was a video of a lesbian woman talking about this because when you see the sexualization of children when you see, you know, drag queen story hours, you just put your hand over your mouth, you think, what in the world is happening? How did it ever even conceivably get to this point? Yeah. And it could not have gone in another direction, because once you take that out, that's where it's going. That's the point. And when you look back, we spoke about this goddess and in the book I call her the transformer. One of the things we see what's happening to children, well, one of the things that she did, she had a priesthood that was blurring the lines of sexuality. We said, I mentioned men dressed up as women. And we have, now we have this returning to the culture..

"Folks, we're going to have a break and we'll be back at the beginning of our two more minutes with Kevin McCullough don't go away. Sorry boy, but I've been here 5 years away oh come on. You got out your dancing and you never pay their gangs. Oh yeah. Okay. In a couple of minutes, we have more with our friend Kevin McCullough. And he's just got so much to say. We're going to drag him over the border into our two. And then after that, we air our interview with Jonathan Khan, which is kind of next level. I'm mourning you. It's wonderful. It's wonderful. And we're going to play our two with Jonathan con tomorrow. So today we'll give you the first half. I should also say, most of you listen to this program on the radio. And if you listen on the radio, you can not see my glorious mutton chop side whiskers. So in order to see them and other crazy things, you have to go to Eric metaxas dot com. And you have to sign up for the newsletter. That's all I'll say. But speaking of radio, we want to welcome a new affiliate. I love this. Salem radio on the Salem radio network around the country and we're welcoming a new affiliate in fredericktown, Missouri, Missouri, fredericktown, Missouri, and so that is news talk 94.3 KY LS, news talk 94.3 KY LS, we are just thrilled that you air this program that you've begun to air this program. If you know anybody in the Frederick town, Missouri area, first of all, tell them about my mutton chop side whiskers. Yes. Because Missouri, back in the day, there were a lot of people walking around in Missouri with mutton chop side whiskers. But fredericktown Missouri is news talk 94.3 Kyle S airing this program. Thank you. And Alvin, you know what? Before we bring our friend back, we go to our news break. I want to mention officially that I have a new book out. It does not drop as we industry insiders call it. It doesn't drop until September 20th, but that really doesn't mean anything. You can pre order it, and I hope you will pre order it. It is called letter to the American church. And I've been doing a lot of interviews already talking about it. It's a very sober, it's my shortest book, and without any question, the most sober serious thing I have ever written because I'm to say concerned is an understatement about, I guess to sum it up, the silence of the American church is destroying America. Is this not will, is destroying America right now. The silence of the American church on key issues. And I'll be talking about that in the weeks ahead, maybe Alvin will interview me. Well, I've been reading it. I'm telling you I'm blown away, blown away. It's very heavy. Yeah, we're going to be interviewing. I'll be interviewing you in the next week or so. So I'm scared. I'm scared. Hard hitting journalistic questions. I'm not ready for that. You're going to try to trick me. I know it. You're going to lure me in. Okay, so the cover of the book has a blurb from our friend Erwin lutzer, he says, this book is like a bucket of cold water thrown into the face of a sleeping church. I hope so, because this is serious stuff and if you listen to this program, we joke around a lot, but that's because we don't want to be. And our rule is on. He was on yesterday's show too. So if you want to know you want to know who that guy is. He was on yesterday, yeah, but big deal. Well, you know, when you send something like this out to people and say, could you consider endorsing it? You have no idea. They may really take issue with what you're saying. So the fact that somebody that I respect as I respect him would say what he said, he didn't just say that, but he said, other things, I thought, I don't want this to be a book that is my opinion. This is either what God wants to say to his people at this crucial time or it's a waste. And so it was very hard to write it. So it's a letter to the American church, and I hope that you will, you know, the main thing I hope is that people will get a copy for their pastor. That would be the main thing or pastors. That would be the main thing because it's about changing, it's about saving this republic. It's about the role of the church. All right, so when we come back, we have more with our friend Kevin McCullough. And then our other friend rabbi Jonathan Khan don't go away. We can't see tomorrow. But we can hear it. Tomorrow sounds like hydrogen being added to natural gas to make it more sustainable. It sounds like solar panels generating thousands of megawatts. And it sounds like carbon being captured in stored, keeping it out of our atmosphere. We've been bridging to a sustainable energy future for more than 20 years. Because what we do today helps ensure tomorrow is on. Enbridge, life takes energy.

"It couldn't be clearer. It's in the first couple of pages of genesis. We'll be right back talking to Jonathan Khan, the book is the return of the gods. With the days are longer the nights are stronger than you. Flow. Folks, I am enjoying my conversation with rabbi Jonathan Khan, he has a brand new book I call the return of the gods, in some ways it's your most provocative book, which is saying a heck of a lot, but what you say in here is so central to where we are, so what should we say we just get a couple of minutes left in this hour? I think there's so much and I'm blessed we'll be able to do more. Well, this is affecting everything. And one of the things that kind of sum up, what the spirits do is they seek destruction. This destruction of life, destruction of gender, destruction of marriage, the structure of family. And to remove things from their purpose. So if they can remove men from the purpose of men, women from the purpose of women, family from the marriage, that's what we've been watching. And the other thing is, I like how you say you said this has happened a few minutes ago, like this whole new movement. So it just happened yesterday and everybody's acting like this. But this is what's so, this is what should tip people off. It's kind of like, you know, when the Nazis took over, they suddenly said, oh, this is the new reality. And a lot of people are like, oh, okay, okay, okay, and you think, wait a second. Wait a second. Where did this come from? So this transgender thing. I mean, I was with a secular doctor in New York here. And I don't know if you knew where I was coming from, but you know, Jewish guy, whatever, and he says, hey, this transcendent thing. Can I ask you politically incorrect question? He said to me, I said, of course. And he says, you know, I had a patient 12 year old wants to identify as that they. And he looked at me like, is this like, is this a thing when we were growing up? Effectively. Where in the world did this suddenly come from that suddenly there's this new reality that there's such a thing as a young man who decides to be called the they. Yeah, which has never been in one sense, but on the other hand, it came from this. If we were alive, there's nothing new. If we were to live back then as Christians, we would have seen that we would have seen priests of this goddess dressed up as that. We would see even transitioning. We have time we'll go to we will see the transitioning of people from one to the other. This is where it goes. It was all going this way from the beginning. I mean, when we turned away from God and we start seeing the sexual revolution, we started seeing a spirit that was coming against manhood at male as male, female as female. You know, if a woman says, you know, if a man acts masculine, they'll say that's toxic masculinity. If a woman does, they applaud it. What's that? What is that? That's the spirit. It's been happening in every factor of our society. It's called shut up, don't ask questions. Don't be consistent. Just go with it. This is, this is the latter work of this. This is the this is where it was going to go anyway. It was going to go this way because this is what started then. Once you turn away from God, you put them out, you lose your identity. You lose your purpose. You lose your if you're a man, you lose that. Everything. This is what the gods do. And that's why I believe it's crucial for this hour. That's why that's why I was led to write it. Even though I knew there's going to be a backlash, you know, I knew it was going to be explosive. If there's no backlash, it's not worth writing, right? Let's face it that we're living in the midst of a battle. That's right. And you and I, we pray that God can wake up those who would be woken up. Some people will be lockstep, sleepwalking, to the cliff. They do not, they will not wake up, but there are people who have seen enough. This is my theory. They've seen enough to say, you know what? I am willing to get a little radical because this is crazy. I had no idea that it would go here. And I think you saw this in Germany in the 30s. Martin niemoller woke up. He finally woke up. But when he woke up, it was too late. But he did wake up finally. He said, I didn't know if I would have known, I would have spoken up sooner. I don't care about my reputation or I care about truth. I care about God. We're out of time, but can I, can we continue to conversation, please? Yes. Okay, so folks, we're out of time for this hour, but lots more with rabbi Jonathan con the book is the return of the gods. Rabbi Jonathan, thank you so much. Thank you, Eric. When you shop at a Walmart vision center, you get it..

"So you said there are three unholy entities. Three chief demons. One is bail, you refer to bail as the possessor, so what are the other gods? This is this kind of unholy trivia. And folks, this is biblical. This is not just some crazy idea that rabbi Jonathan Khan came up with. Yeah, the first part, yeah, the bail is kind of like the enter. You always see him first when he says bail and this, there's this. He's like that first spirit who brings the Friends. And so it's opening the door. So what you see in Israel is bail was the principality that drove God out of everything. What we see in America, starting with the 60s, blatantly, is this spirit that driving God out of everywhere out of the public square out of the school out of everything. It's continuous. Also, it says, as we mentioned, bail made Israel forget God. The idea with America is a nation that new gods so much, but is now progressively forgetting God. In Israel, he calls them and says to turn away from the commandments. We have literally struck down the tank of mammoths. And there's a whole realm of what we won't have time to go into it. But there's a process of paganism that's been happening. And even behind woke ism, like a quick example of this. It's so infiltrated us. In paganism, you have many gods. And with God, you have one. You have one God, one truth. But in paganism, you have many gods many truths. You have your own truth. In fact, you can create your own God. You create your own idol. You're creating your own truth. So now we have our own authentic truth. Everybody has their truth. If I say I'm a woman or I say I'm a tree, you have to accept that because it's my event, that's paganism. That's part of the seeping end of this. I won't go into it because of the time, but to say that even the sign of bail appeared in New York City. In ancient times, the son of Bill was, there was a sign of a molten bull, a Massa. Oh, I want you to go into this. Because when I read this in the book, I thought to myself, I never honestly, you know, I feel like sometimes I'm hard to surprise. So when I get surprised by something, I'm really happy because I think I never saw that. On Wall Street, when did they put this there in the 80s? 88. Okay, so the go, go, go, 80s. You know, Gordon gekko. It's the 80s and Wall Street. And they created and in some ways it's beautiful. It's a gigantic. Yes. Molten metal bowl. Yes. Sorry. Charging bullets. Charging bowl. Yeah. Because it talks about the bull market, you want a bull market, which is a growing market and so on and so forth. But you astonished me by relating that to this idea. Yeah, you know, Eric, like in the harbinger of people do things is not that they know what they're doing. But the mystery manifest. Where all over Israel and all of the Middle East, the son of bail was a molten bull. Well, he was fertility. Also, he promised prosperity. So what is our version of it? The stock market. So we call our prosperous market the bull market, as you said. And so they erect this massive molten ball on Wall Street. It is the sign and the Bible of bail, taking over a culture, and also it's a sign of a culture that once knew God and has turned away. Everything's linked to the bull. Even the golden calf. It's a bull calf. I mean, it's all that it has manifested. And there's another sign. Now I won't go away doing unless you have asked, but they even erected the arch of bale's temple in this place. That when you write about that, I'd heard about this, but some things I'm amazed because I haven't heard about certain things, but the arch of bail. I had read about that. And that was in Washington, D.C.. It was in a number of places. Interesting because the times in America the key times were one was there. It was actually during the election, Donald Trump versus Hillary Clinton centered in both of them centered in New York center over the issue of abortion. Which links to bail as well. But then the next time it appeared, it appeared in Washington during the Kavanaugh trials over abortion, and it appeared on that national mall facing..

"Right now for your free HR audit, BAM BEE dot com slash metaxas. Uh oh. Here he is, folks. Remember, remember I warned you who we had in our one today. In our two, we have rabbi Jonathan Khan. He's scary in a different way. But my guest right now, Kevin McCullough, some of you know him and fear him as both is my guest right now. Kevin welcome. Hey, Eric, I'm not half as scary as that crazy person standing in front of independence hall last Thursday. Pounding the podium like this from him. That's in the middle of World War II. That's kind of the point. It's why I wanted to have you on here because you wrote a piece of town hall. People can read it. I hope they'll read it at town hall. Dot com. But what we saw the other day is really sickening, frightening, disturbing, confusing. In some ways funny because it's so insane, but I want to process this where we are. And so when I saw your piece, I thought I've got to get you on the program. So in a nutshell, what did you make of his preposterous sickening performance? And I'm not trying to tell you what I think of it by calling it the posture. I think those are anodyne neutral terms. Well, first, and this is you won't find this remarkable, but I do, in my own experience, as a consumer of the day to today governmental political intersection, trying to watch it, I have become rather amazed at how unencumbered I am with the actions of this president. He's become literally so insignificant that most people forget that he has a speech planned or this type of thing. I didn't even know until after the speech that there were 6 major networks that didn't even carry it. It was mostly just the NBC properties that did. But here's the thing. So I didn't see it until after it had passed. I watched it about ten 30 11 o'clock that same evening. And when I did Eric, I thought this is the lowest low point of presidential speech making in the modern era and maybe in the history of the nation. And we need to be clear about that, folks. This is not hyperbole. I said this yesterday. Kevin just said it again. It takes a moment to process what we're saying here, that this was not just bad. This is a new level, a horror, and the reason I speak with such vitriol about Joe Biden is because he has become an enemy of American liberty, which is to say in American an enemy of America, an enemy of American liberty, it is astonishing that he is considered the president of the United States and that he would give a speech like this. But get into the specifics, there's a lot of people who are watching or listening, you know, they don't know what it was that he said. Yeah, and there's so many juxtapositions in this speech, Eric, that people need to be aware of. But first of all, the setting independence hall needs no wash and light. It needs no paint. Independence hall is where our founders met, argued, beat each other over the head with Keynes, did all kinds of things expressing their desire for the principles that founded the two major documents that our government was formed around. And it was at independence hall that those patriots came together and defined some of the very values that we are charging this current government with massive violations of. You're no longer respecting the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness if you're advanced the if you've advanced the argument as to why baby killing should happen even through and beyond the time of birth. There's so many juxtapositions in just the setting of what was there. Second, the military presence of the marines behind him. It is, it is against military protocol, not just presidential decorum, but the actual protocol of the military to be involved in any kind of speech that even slightly regards political appearance. And in this situation, I've never heard a more political screed. Not coming from just candidates. But from an elected president. And he knows better. This is a guy that's been in Washington for 50 years. He trouts out his son's death as a former naval officer all the time. This is a man who vomits upon us all of his experience and knowledge of Washington D.C. and what's to be done. And what does he do? He forces two marines to appear to support him in the back of the picture of his backdrop there. And complete violation of Pentagon protocol. I talked to three generals about that since the speech has been had. But also to the great detriment of the American people. Now, that barrier has been broken. And so people don't know why it's bad. They don't understand the need for neutrality, et cetera. That was just the setting. That was just the backdrop. Then you got to the actual present, the substance of the speech. And in what was supposed to be a challenge and a call to the soul of the nation. And let me pause on that. I don't know of a more corrupt and compromised person to talk about the soul of anything, much less the soul of his fellow human beings here in America than Joe Biden. This guy was compromised from the day he accepted his term in office. He's compromised with his son and their business dealings in China. He's compromised in how he said he didn't authorize the Mar-a-Lago rate and now we find out in the actual excerpts of the court documents that he was ordered by him. The incumbent president. It says it in the order. This man is compromised on every level, and yet he dares to lecture us about what is good for our soul. Thirdly, he made everyone that disagreed with him, appear to be an enemy of the state. This is unparalleled, unfriend frontier area for presidents. You don't go on TV and call half of America, your enemy. Now this is, I mean, this is why I'm going to go further out on a limb here and say that as an American, I feel duty bound to oppose him as legitimate president. He has become a wicked man in the service of wicked forces. The sort of thing that people who hate Donald Trump always set about Trump, which was in fact incorrect. Those things are in fact correct of Joe Biden. Everything that they accuse Trump of being an enemy of democracy and the things that they continue to accuse him of doing. Those things are in fact not true. And you can see where people might want to think those things, but those things are not true. Those things are true of Biden and whoever are the people running things because let's be honest in a further level of unconstitutionality, Joe Biden is not running this country. He's not the president of this country. There are people behind him far smarter and and even more wicked than he, who are using him to put forward an agenda that makes patriotic Americans the enemy. This is astonishing..

And I'm not trying to tell you what I think of it by calling it the posture. I think those are anodyne neutral terms. Well, first, and this is you won't find this remarkable, but I do, in my own experience, as a consumer of the day to today governmental political intersection, trying to watch it, I have become rather amazed at how unencumbered I am with the actions of this president. He's become literally so insignificant that most people forget that he has a speech planned or this type of thing. I didn't even know until after the speech that there were 6 major networks that didn't even carry it. It was mostly just the NBC properties that did. But here's the thing. So I didn't see it until after it had passed. I watched it about ten 30 11 o'clock that same evening. And when I did Eric, I thought this is the lowest low point of presidential speech making in the modern era and maybe in the history of the nation. And we

I apologize those of you who expected Hugh Jackman to be here. He's ill, and that's why we have understudies. And so I'm going to be playing the role. Okay, I'm talking to my friend Kevin McCullough after that we will talk to rabbi Jonathan Khan about his new book crazy, amazing stuff in there. But Kevin, while we still have you, I really want to, I want to ask you a few questions about the speech and about the situation in the country. First of all, why do you think the networks other than NBC did not carry a presidential speech? You normally that's what they did to Trump. They tried to shut him down, but it's kind of interesting to me. To be candid if the reports of White House staff thinking this was a bad idea, were true. We know that that party leaks things faster than they can be had. They may have in a decision of self editing decided to tell their people. If you don't choose to take this one, it's not the biggest loss for us. What unfortunately that did is it really drew attention to what we would then say about it in the talk a sphere on the days afterwards. And since the majority of the people didn't see it, mostly talk radio and how media interpreted it, became the way that it will be viewed long term and actually, I think we're pretty accurate in what we're saying. Well, again, to me, the most horrific thing was that it was an independence hall. I'm finally watching the HBO miniseries on John Adams that came out. I don't know, 15 years ago, I had never seen it because I won't bring HBO into my home, but it's available in other places. And when you know the history of America, and by the way, this is if you want to know how we got to this dark place, it's because we have ceased teaching the history of America. It's no longer part of the warp and woof of American life that we all know the story of bunker hill. We all know Lexington and Concord we all know these stories and we all know the battles and the sacrifices. When you know all of those things, you can't miss when you go wrong. You go, wait a minute. That's off. And so to have just seen the episode, I guess it's the second episode of the John Adams HBO series called independence and it's set in independence hall when I was at Yale. I was in the musical 1776, which really tells that story. And it is a sacred moment in the history of the world, what took place in that building, what took place in that building 11 years later in the constitutional convention. It is sacred folks. It's sacred because it established the idea that people can govern themselves. It is a beautiful, noble, amazing idea meant for the whole world. So to have Joe Biden give a speech like this in that place, it is, I mean, it feels deeply deeply creepy. It feels sick. It feels perverse to me that they did that. And does anybody have any plausible explanation of why they might have bathed it in this lurid red color? All I can think of is that there are some people, it's kind of like, you know, you remember the velvet hammer James baker would kind of frame things visually for Reagan, right? We want this kind of a background. We want the Brandenburg gate. We want to, I think that there have to be people working behind the scenes in this administration. It wasn't by accident. Who did this in a way calculated to provoke a patriotic Americans? Whatever the rationale was, Eric and I think we could all go crazy trying to come up with the explanation because I don't know that any of us think the way this group of people thinks. I spoke with one person last week who said who comments publicly on things on a regular basis from a think tank in Washington. And he said, well, it might have even been to pay homage to communism, which when different people have given speeches, colors have been used very prominently. It is interesting that one of the networks kind of thought it was a little too blood red. And got caught pink handed trying to tweak the color. If you watch the kids start at the speech to the wait a minute. Wait a minute. One of the networks tried to mess with the color because they felt that it tried to move it to a lighter pink. In the process of the coverage, yes. Well, look, blood, blood red, obviously evokes blood. But the color is also the color of the Chinese Communist Party. I don't know. It's the cover of the color of Soviet Russian communism. It's frankly bizarre that they would have done this. To me, it looked like the 7th realm of hell. I just couldn't get away from the whole. This is really shallow in my part, but my wife and I have watched the entire sequence of the office television show many, many times. There's a classic episode in that series where Dwight schrute is tricked by his coworker Jim Harper into giving an acceptance speech for an award that he gets. And Dwight's a little farm boy from rural Pennsylvania. But he thinks he knows everything. Jim's like, I've got this great speech for you. It was Mussolini's speech. He goes in, his translated into English. He gives his speech, he's pounding the podium like this. And he's got a red backdrop behind him. The comparisons seeing Joe Biden use both hands to double pound the podium while he makes these arguments about maga Americans and how terrible they are and how they want to bring America backwards. And then he cites the things that they want to do to bring us backwards like protect human life. And protect our children in schools. And everything that we think is good, he thinks is bad..

"We'll be right back final segment. We're talking to rabbi Jonathan Khan. Understanding don't you know that this is true. My mother. Folks are talking to rabbi Jonathan Khan, we've mentioned the film the harbingers of things to come. You can see it at Salem now dot com. But you have a book coming out soon. What's that titled? Yeah. This is the most explosive book I've ever done. And it's called now that sounds like hyperbole because all of your books are pretty darn explosive. Why would you say it's the most explosive book? You'll see. You'll see when we do this. It is called the return of the gods. And it touches everything. I mean, everything and things that people don't touch. Everything that's happening right now. I would say, could there be a mystery behind the transformations, the movements? What's happening in America? What's transforming? That goes back to the Bible and goes back to ancient Mesopotamia. Could the beings we know we call gods, these fictional beings, could there be some reality could they actually be a reality to them? Could there be entities behind these gods? Actually, the Bible says there are. Well, I would assume that there are demonic entities behind these gods. Well, not only you're assuming it, yeah, the Bible says it outright says there are spirits. They call it in the Hebrew to cause them to shade and in the Greek cause that ammonia where we get the word demon demon yeah. Yeah. So it's saying, so here's the thing, and if the gods were when Christianity came, when the gospel came, it basically exercised western civilization. It was basically a possessed civilization, because these are spirits. So it exercised them. But the thing is that gods can end, but spirits remain. And so the thing is that if here's the warning. And I won't go into any detail. Well, I know we'll do a thing on it. But Jesus gave a warning about a parable. And the warning taken to us now is that if western civilization, America, ever turns away from God from the gospel. It will open the door. The spirits will return. The gods will return. When a student of what happened in Germany, it's exactly like that. It's happening now. And in the book, I'm going to reveal three particular gods. I call them the dark Trinity that are specific. And you know, Eric, when I speak about this, I don't speak generally. These are specific dates specific times affecting everything affecting marriage affecting gender, affecting sexuality, affecting everything linked to specific gods, even this city where we are right now. It's like ancient mythology unfolding. What we're dealing with, it's going to be explosive. Because we're talking about reality. This is not fiction. This is reality. So when we're talking about jezebel or any of these spirits, these are wicked spirits. So I don't know, will you talk about some of this stuff? But look, this is paganism. Yes. C. S. Lewis writes about this to some extent his book, the last of the space trilogy, which my brain is. But this is reality. It is reality, and you can't understand, like, how are you going to make sense of Hitler? You can't make sense trying to do secular terms. They can. It's spiritual. What's happening now? People are saying, what is going on? Even liberal, even secular people are saying, this is crazy. This is madness. It's spiritual. And it's specific. Eric, what are we going to open up on when we do it? But it's spiritual. It's specific. I speak about one call, the one called the possessor, another called the enchantress, another called the destroyer, and how they specifically transform and the goal, the goal of the gods and the spirits is to take a Christian nation and turn it into a pagan nation. And that's exactly what we've been witnessing. Yeah. To this day. No, there's absolutely no question of it. And it's kind of interesting as part of what in my book is atheism dead. I don't get into it too deeply, but the point is that when you take God out, atheism is not neutral, it's nihilism, it is satanic. It is inhuman. That is exactly from the ancient warning. He said, when he talked about the man who was cleansed of the spirits. He said, if the house, if the house remains clean and empty, it's not going to stay empty. Others are going to come in. And this lies behind everything that lies behind the rainbow. Well, when does the book come out? The book comes out September 6th, but they can pre order it. You can preorder it now. And it's called return of the gods. Yes. And if you go to Salem now, dot com you see the harbingers of things to come, Jonathan, God bless you. Thanks for your time..

Welcome back, we're talking to rabbi Jonathan Khan, author of many books, including the harbinger, the harbinger two, son of harbinger, just kidding. No. Harbinger meets avenue Costello meet harbinger, the film is called the harbingers of things to come. It's available at Salem now, dot com, all kinds of other stuff in here. When you talk about the jubilee of abortion, which we just covered, you were relating that to the Supreme Court overturning roe V wade, and there's no question that is utterly historic. I mean, it's a monumental thing that something which was a bad law, not just because abortion is evil, but the law itself was bad. It was a high handed overreach by the judiciary to legislate something. It has no business being found in the constitution. It's just complete nonsense. But to have that actually overturned in our lifetimes, thanks to Donald Trump, who appointed three originalists to the Supreme Court. Yes. Yeah, a few things. One is, and remember we once talked about a thing called the paradigm. I think that I'm just going to say one thing about that. I won't go, yeah. What's one of your books? Yeah. Yeah. And one of the things about Donald Trump is I saw that he's following with America. He kept following this pattern of jehu jehu was the wild guide. And he comes up while the nation's falling away from God. But the one thing that one thing that jehu does, which is if he only did that, it would be enough. Is he opposes the worship of bail, which is the offering of child sacrifice. So the thing is that so jehu actually causes the temple of bail to fall. Donald Trump, as you said, he's the one who appointed the three Supreme Court Justices and by that act he caused roe versus way to fall. Just according to that, if that's the only thing he did, correct. That would be more than enough. That's right. But the other thing, we're just going to say we're speaking about hope, too. One of the things I speak about in the movie too is about hoping that when what does God say, well, he says, if my people. Now, and I noted two times in American history when God literally honored that. There was actually a national day of prayer and repentance. And God turned the whole nation around. One was during the Civil War, and one was Lincoln, literally saved America, and the other was actually something called Washington for Jesus 1980. It's a whole thing, but it was when America was falling apart, Carter, and the hostages, and God put in Ronald Reagan, but there was a gathering before that. And actually, when Ronald Reagan had his hand on the Bible, it was on a scripture. If my people who are called by my name, which was that so but something I was led to do with others, Eric, during this lockdown. We like to call for a gathering on the national mall called the return. And I'm just going to say this and I'm not saying we're anything and I'm not saying it's all the prayers of God's people that God did something. The one vote that overturned roe versus wade, it was one vote because 6 to three was about the law, but 5 to four was the one that overturned rovers. It was one vote. It was the last, the last one he nominated, which was Amy Barrett. When he nominated that, that was the vote that did it. Well, on the day of the return, the return was September 26th, 2020, and we are pranked. And we're interceding that same day as the day that Donald Trump nominated that vote set that emotion. And we're praying about abortion. And that the very end, I said, let's everybody sound the show far seal everything we did and lord God have your way. It was 5 o'clock. It was four minutes. It was 5 O four. That very minute Donald Trump set in motion, the overturning of abortion. The very minute. I mean, God is. Now the lord does this kind of stuff really to encourage us to let us know you're not whistling in the wind, you are doing things that I see and they matter. And he often gives us these clues and speaks miraculously specifically to encourage us to say, yes, I want you to do that. Yes, you did that and I acted. Oh, there's so much here. Exactly. Well, there are other mysteries revealed in the movie, and I want to say again, Salem now dot com. A lot of great stuff there, but the harbingers of things to come. Is it harbingers plural? Yes. Okay, it is. The harbingers of things to come. Were you just going to say something before I leaped into this? Well, we're on the same page. He has to, he does it that way so that you noted. If he didn't do it exactly, you might not notice it. He's encouraging us. I believe what he did with the overturning rovers weight is an encouragement to the entire body. Listen, go forward, be bold. Don't be don't be on the defense beyond the offense. The mystery of the island. That's very provocative. Did we talk about that last time? I don't remember. Well, here's the thing. You know very well, John winthrop. John winthrop is really the grandfather. No, I do remember this, but this is too good. Please repeat this. Well, John winthrop, he's the one who said, at the very beginning of America, he gives a prophetic word a prophetic call. He says, we shall be as a city on a hill. That's where Ronald Reagan got it from, of course, from Masai. But he says, if we follow God, we'll be the most blessed nation. So it's all happened. It all happened. But people forget that he gave a warning. Okay, but this was 1630. Yes. And he was the governor of the Massachusetts bay colony, and he really set speaking of templates. He set the template for America, not Jamestown. It was set in Plymouth and in Massachusetts bay colony, and he's quoting Jesus that we will be a city on a hill. So he did that from a place in Boston. Yes. And he then gave a warning. He said, but if we turn away from our God, then the same judgments that came on Israel will come upon America. And I didn't read that when I wrote the harmony, but that's exactly what the harbinger and all those things are saying. Right. So the thing is you said that. Now the thing is people don't realize there was an actual city on a hill. It wasn't actually, in other words, there was a city. And you just alluded to it. The city was Boston, and that's where he's the founder of Boston, and he was there. He lived there. And as the governor and he lived there. And so he not only lived there, but he had an island. It was called governor's island. It was his eye. On that island, he would face Boston, he would pray for America pray for the future all that. When 9 11 came, well, let me put this. This is called a cliffhanger folks. You're going to want to hear the rest of this. Trust me because I know where Jonathan is going..

"5 7, where Mike pillow dot com. You just got Eric. Welcome back. I'm talking to rabbi Jonathan Khan and we just you just touched on the fact that sometimes really bad things happen. And we know that God often uses terrible things to wake us up. He blesses us by letting us go through tough stuff. It happened to me when I came to faith and you just said you were hit by a train. You look pretty good for a guy that was hit by a thank you. I don't know how you did it. Thank you. Well, basically in a quick nutshell, I was brought up in a Jewish home. I'm Jewish. My father escaped Hitler to get here. But I wasn't really religious. Our family was kind of secular. When I became 8, I became an atheist in Hebrew school. I said, I don't see God. I don't see the God of the Bible in the synagogue. But then I realized that atheism doesn't work. There's got to be something. I started searching everything. Science, religion, a cult, UFOs, Nostradamus, everything philosophy. One day I picked up a book that I thought was a UFO book, it was the late great Planet Earth by highlands. You know what? I remember that paperback and it looked, it was designed to look like an Eric von daniken chair. That's right. Chariots of the gods or one of those mystery pyramid UFO books. So you fell for it. I fell for it. You picked up Patrick. Yeah, yeah, God used that. If they didn't change that, I probably would never picked up that book. I said, wow, will the Bible said is coming true? I had no idea about the prophecy and it's coming. Israel's back. I'm telling all my friends about it. And I'm not saying, but I'm winning them to the lord. I wasn't living in. I had a rock band. As a teenager. So finally, I made a deal with God. I said, listen, I knew I knew I had to get my lap. I didn't want to. I thought I had to join a monastery, so I made a deal. I said, God, if you give me a long life, I'll accept you when I'm on my deathbed. That was the deal. Soon after that, I'm heading to a train track and I see a light and basically a long story short. It was a dangerous long story short. You got hit by a train. What's the long story short? I'm in a full somebody get hit by a train. I'm in a Ford Pinto, which used to blow up on. You look at the wrong way. That's trouble right there. That's good. And it was nighttime. It was a dangerous intersection. There was no protection. People had been killed there. You couldn't even tell where you were. I'm there. It's at night. The lights going on. I suppose either broken, but the other cars are crossing. I said, well, let me go up and see if it's broken. I do. I see a light doesn't look like it's moving because it's coming head on. I'm on the track. So now I said, you know what, I might be too close. Let me turn it back up. So I started trying to back up, but down their headlights in back of me. So I backed up, but I think I'm just being extra safe. I'm still in the path of the train. You didn't know this. No, because it came out. It's dark at an sitting there in a corner waiting for the waiting for the train to pass. But alas, in order to pass the train must go through you. Yes. So it goes through the goes to the Ford Pinto. It goes up like aluminum foil. And the only thing I could do at that moment was call out to God, which I did. Hold on to God. The car was destroyed. I didn't get a scratch. You're in a Ford Pinto on a railroad track. The train hits the car, the car goes flying and you're in it. Yes. And you lived. By God's grace. Yeah, I made headlines. God's grace, I said, so I came out. I said, there was police law. I said, lord, I said, okay, that was close. I said, can we renegotiate? I said, okay, lord, when I turned 20, then I turned 20. That's what I'll accept you. How old were you when you were 9? I was 19. It was about 8 months away. You still wanted a few months of fun. I said, I said, lord, just don't kill me until then. My 20th birthday, not knowing what not knowing. I stream over Hebrew school, God met people on mountains. I found a mountain at night, went up, kneeled down on a rock, gave my life to the lord on my 20th birthday. So I was born again on the day I was born. And the thing interesting thing years later, Eric, I'm looking at the Bible, and you know, I'm from the line of Aaron. That's my house. The priests. And I look at it and says, David says, he set up the sons of Aaron to start ministering to the lord when they turned on their 20th birthday. I had no idea. I didn't know what I was doing, but that's God. He's sovereign. God is way too sovereign sometimes. It's just unbelievable. It really is. Jonathan, it's unbelievable. It's delightful. It's beautiful.

"Tell me Eric, why is relief factor so successful at lowering or eliminating pain? I'm often asked that question the owners of relief factor tell me they believe our bodies were designed to heal. That's right, designed to heal, and I agree with them. So the doctors who formulated relief factor for them selected the four best ingredients, yes, 100% drug free ingredients, each helps your body deal with inflammation. Each of the four ingredients deals with inflammation from a different metabolic pathway, and that right there approaching from four different angles may be why so many people find such wonderful relief. So if you've got back pain, shoulder neck hip knee or foot pain from exercise or just getting older, you should order the three week quick start discounted to only 1995 to see if it will work for you.

Folks, welcome back, I'm talking to rabbi Jonathan Khan, and this is exciting and fascinating. The movie that's coming out is the harbingers of things to come. May 12th in theaters across the country. Yes. So you mentioned, I mean, there's so many things. I don't know where to start. You mentioned that there is well, actually, let me throw it out to you generally and you can respond as you want. Where are we now? In other words, are we in the midst of being judged as a nation? Do you think that out of the current difficulties there will be a season of revival? What is your sense from what you've looked at? That's what I'm praying for in your praying for. We're praying for revival. Do I see? I mean, there are revivals, but do I see revival of America now? I don't. Right now, again, it's racing. We're trying to kind of God's people are trying to kind of slow it down. But it's happening. We are right now replaying what Israel did. We're calling evil good and good evil. You know, at the beginning, it was kind of tolerance for evil. Like, hey, this sin is okay. This is okay. Do your own thing. It's okay. We've gone to that's calling evil good. Now we go to the other side of the equation. Isaiah, it says they call good evil. Now we're getting the council culture, where what is good is treated as evil. So we're kind of going to another stage. So yes, the only thing that can save America is revival. One of the things Eric, by the way, the film, just like the books, always ends with hope. And there's two examples of where God literally changed the course of America. One by prayer. By second chronicles 7 14, if my people. One was with Lincoln. And in the middle of a Civil War, you may not. He issues this national proclamation for prayer repentance. What I trace out, there was a day of fasting and prayer. Is that the very next day things begin to turn that are going to ultimately save America. The day after that thing, I won't go into it. But then another time I was a new believer. This is my lifetime. 1980. And I came and America was falling apart. It was Carter. It was the hostages that Iran, energy lines, death to America. They tried to save the hostages, they crashed or but there was a gathering in America in the capital, Cole Washington for Jesus, which was based on if my people, everybody would be painting. I was there. I was a new believer. It's what outed me from my parents. My Jewish fares, I'm a believer. So I'm there. And I remember, and the thing is I remember everybody in their hands to the western terrace of the capitol building. And to say, God put in whoever you want. A number of months later, there's a revolution in the polls, Ronald Reagan comes in. Moral majority, all these things. And he comes in and the very hour that, and we also pray for the hostages to be released, the very hour, the hostages are released, he's put in. But and things turn around. They call them morning in America. They're not getting political, but things turned around..

"I'm warning you you want to watch this, this is just too important. We'll be right back. In case you haven't been paying attention, the Biden administration has caused a financial crisis, and they have no clue how to fix it. Oil prices have skyrocketed and when oil prices go up, the cost of transportation and shipping spikes leading the prices of goods to rise. And when we're already seeing record inflation, that's the last thing we need. Our economy is in trouble and you need to take steps to protect yourself. If all your money is tied up in stocks, bonds and traditional markets, you are vulnerable. Gold is one of the best ways to protect your retirement. No matter what happens, you own your gold.

Come on. Really? Yeah. It actually is, yeah. So do I? Yeah. Okay, so all right, well then that's the next question. Now we know it's may 12th and theaters across America. What is in it? Because you've written so many books. What do you cover in this film? Yeah, it's taking the template of the harbingers, which the first book I ever did, of course, the harbinger. The last one I did, which I was with you, the other time, was the harbinger too, which of the sequels. So it has not stopped. The template of national judgment and warning on America has not stopped. And so this is bringing it up to date and for the people who have never heard the harbinger to those who do know harming her, what has happened since I wrote the orbiter, where things are going, what's happening to America, what do we need to know for the future? Where does this lead according to the template, according to the biblical pattern? And it's actually not just hearing about the harbingers of the different from the book is you're actually seeing them. So it's kind of going across the country opening up these mysteries. Okay, now a lot of people in the prophetic world have said Trump is coming back for a second term. Do you see that? I don't predict like that. But I can't say that's definitely going to happen, but we need to pray for it. We need to pray for God's will and the government. I know. I already knew that. I didn't need to have the expert Jonathan Khan on the program to tell me we need to pray for God's will for the government. So you know, and I know that we are obliged to pray. For God's.

"Went to hebrew school as a child celebrated all the jewish holidays. Had my bar mitzvah. Being jewish was really important growing up as a kid and i was working in a large recording studio in new york city pursuing fame and fortune looked at all the lives of these people around me said there has to be more life than just this began as spiritual journey was stunned with my rabbi but also studied yoga and one day. I was meditating and my soul began to vibrate left. My body and i went into heaven. And i saw this king on his throne and i had this encounter. supernatural encounter. A new king on his throne was jesus as he rename your show. I felt the power of god. He told me it was called to serve in the next thing. Oz back in my body running around saying called to serve him a mom's like your call to serve ojeda's were jewish for crying out loud but with eddie counter. I knew his real name. My best friend came to faith and he comments Jason can you tell the difference. Between the new and old testament. Hebrew scores had short the redmi. This passage he was bruised for our transgressions. crush fire. iniquities by stripes were healed. I said clearly. That's the new testament is talking about. Jesus he said no. That's isaiah fifty three. The jewish prophet speaking savage hundred years. He began to provoke. Elstein eventually a gut kind of tricked into faith at a messianic chabad friday nights by rabbi jonathan khan and that's a whole nother story well i am interested. How did your family take it. Because i know that That must have been a surprise to them when you became a follower every shula. Yeah absolutely. I mean when i came to know the lord. The game of the first new testament ever seen Having new testament was worse than pornography. I hated in my bedroom. God forbid my power should find it and of course my mom did find it. She's like what is this. And i've found your room. Don't tell me come into those jews who believe in jesus. I need to do something like this one day and break my heart. You joined a call go with the rabbi. So i had to go get my my hebrew bible out and kind of what are all the promises prophecies of the messiah that point to him and that kind of what led me down this journey of connecting the old and the new which is what we do and in our books like mysteries of the messiah but that is how it all began. That's amazing. well now. I'm going to ask you. How did you become a spiritual adviser for the chosen. I watched the behind the scenes. I've watched all of your unveiled was phenomenal by the way and At in one of the behind the scenes i saw that there are three spiritual advisers. So i wanna know how you be cam Involved in that project. Yeah i was one of the originals for advisors in fact before the series even for even raise any money to do the series added mutual. We a mutual friend matthew who a introduced me to dallas and we connected and they're like yes. We want some. We wanted to make this jewish historic Historical accurate accuracy and they'd never been to israel so before as they were looking to crowd fund and do everything for the show took dallas in some key. People to israel went to a lot of the spots that was going to be portrayed in the chosen made a number of videos. So that's kind of where it all began. Yeah that's phenomenal. So tell me what's so unique about the chosen. I mean there's so many things that are unique about the chosen. But one of the things that i personally love about the chosen is that it takes a different look at the life of jesus than many of the other portrayals of him you know in the movies that are made. It's usually about the divine. Jesus it's kind of this theory real esoteric individual what i love about the jesus as portrayed by jonathan in the chosen is that he's a very down to earth. He's very human very fun to be around. You can really relate to him. And i love allah chosen really focus on how on the lives of the individuals who encounter jesus and get transformed in the process. I love that. Focus on the transformation. And what happens when people encounter in which i think is really unique. Of course. it's the only multi season multi episode series done on the life of jesus and the disciples of that's unique and was successfully crowd. Funded media project ever secular or faith-based over one hundred million views on it so just incredible impact. Yeah and and it's just so well done You know we binge watch season one and i. I don't think my husband and i are eyes. Were dry at all. I mean it just is breathtaking and We couldn't wait for season two to come out and so we're enjoying that and looking forward to episode four and we And and going forward it's just Unlike anything but we. My husband was actually Sharing the gospel with somebody the other day and he said have you seen the chosen. You have to see the chosen and the guy was kind of like oh like i don't wanna watch another jesus movie like i've of seen jesus movies and i know what they're about and he was like you don't understand. This is not your typical. Jesus television series. You have to watch it so we're excited to to get to share it so i wanna know how You working on the chosen. How has it changed your life. Oh yeah i mean. I think it's just been an amazing opportunity. I mean it's think again. I personally like watching show. I personally get impacted by it. I mean wh- probably the greatest thing is the impact that has had on my kids And fact that they've loved it it's impacted their lives What's amazing is that their school found out about it through kind of my relationship and they created a curriculum around it up for the school so it's impacted their friends as well and so it's been incredible from that regard and i've just loves ost. The some of the personal relationships that have developed with some of.
