Odle introduces the rebirth and regathering of Israel as a major biblical sign that must be evaluated through Scripture rather than political slogans. He distinguishes God’s prophetic purpose for the Jewish people from blanket approval of governments, rabbinic traditions, or unbelief in Jesus.
The sermon acknowledges Jewish blindness concerning Jesus while rejecting antisemitic contempt and claims that modern Jews have no connection to biblical Israel. Odle argues that Christians share the Hebrew Scriptures and must still proclaim the same Messiah and salvation to every ethnicity.
Working through Romans 11, Odle teaches that God has not cast away His foreknown people and preserves a remnant by grace. Israel’s stumbling opened mercy to Gentiles, but that temporary unbelief does not erase the promises or authorize Gentile boasting.
Natural branches broken through unbelief and Gentile wild branches grafted by faith form Paul’s warning against high-mindedness. Odle rejects alternate Jewish, Islamic, or New Age versions of Jesus and insists that every branch stands only through faith in the crucified and risen Christ.
Romans 11:22–32 supports both God’s severity toward unbelief and His continuing ability to restore natural branches when they turn to Christ. The “fullness of the Gentiles” and “all Israel shall be saved” are interpreted as an end-time movement of mercy rather than salvation apart from the gospel.
Zechariah 12 and 14 portray nations gathering against Jerusalem, severe conflict, divine intervention, and inhabitants looking upon the one they pierced. Odle places these passages at Christ’s return and argues that the same Jewish people present in judgment are brought to recognition and mourning for Jesus.
The day of the Lord includes Jerusalem attacked, survivors preserved, the Mount of Olives divided, and the Lord coming with His saints. The sermon applies Christ’s command to love Jewish neighbors and preach the gospel first to them, not to excuse unbelief or replace evangelism with politics.
Ezekiel 36 speaks to the mountains of Israel after desolation, scattering, reproach, and foreign occupation, promising renewed habitation and fruitfulness. Odle emphasizes that God regathers the people for His own name’s sake despite their sin, making national restoration a public sign of His faithfulness rather than human merit.
The modern return of Jews from many nations and the land’s renewed cultivation are presented as fulfillment that Satan seeks to discredit through replacement claims and disputed ancestry theories. Odle says current war is moving toward foretold conflict, but the church’s task remains preaching Scripture and refusing simplistic partisan labels.
The conclusion warns against doctrines claiming Israel is spiritually meaningless and against Mandela-effect claims that Scripture itself has supernaturally changed. Odle calls believers to trust God’s preserved word, keep prophecy centered on Jesus, and stand firm as events move toward His return.

I Pray God that you give those watching and listening those here today those Online that you will give everyone ears to hear and hearts to understand Lord those that have it been deceived into some false doctrine away from the scriptures I pray that you will open their eyes and they will receive correction. We pray this today in Jesus name Amen and amen. Hallelujah. Maybe see this morning. Well, welcome everybody. Good to see everybody here Those out there we welcome those watching listening From everywhere we know from all over the place. It's pretty amazing Um Y'all ready for this. I feel the preach coming on. I may be here. We may be here for a while Is that all right? I may be here for a while Some folks done irritated me. So, you know what that means? Right Hey, let me tell you something. I love it. You want to get you want to get me stirred up. Go ahead Go ahead and provoke me. You know, the Bible says don't provoke a king to anger, you know, we are kings and priests, right? Provoke the king to anger you get what coming to you But we got so much scripture to go into today now Well, we're gonna talk about today. I've covered before Maybe not in the depth. I'm gonna cover it even a couple of weeks ago. I touched upon it but there's a reason why I'm gonna delve back into this today because whenever there is a Movement or an idea or a belief that's starting to be pushed even by Christians That undermines the scriptures is completely contrary completely opposite of what the Bible says All right, and you see Christians Literally getting upset and fighting for the thing that's opposite of what the Bible says Then we have a problem I'm also gonna say this too. Look I'm getting a little tired. There's a whole group of folks out here They just almost they try to lump every pastor into the same
- 0:07:57
You know just like they hate all pastors or all pastors, you know They all it was amazing the whole group of people out there think they're smarter than every five-fold minister that exists Alright, and some of them hadn't been saved very long But they think they know everything and some of them are that what they would call the truthers and I like what painting came up With that that phrase the goo for truthers There's goo for truthers out there and that's why I posted this morning because we get into this and it'll probably be in the one Of the slides here, but I'm gonna say it here at the outset But listen, I do know there are very real Conspiracies in the world and I talk about them Okay, and especially I say if there's a conspiracy in the world and the Bible foretold it in Bible prophecy Then you can bank on it. It's legit I don't care how much evidence or there is or lack thereof if the Bible says that it's true But let me go on in this day say look if your theories and your conspiracy theories or your belief system is Contrary to what the Bible teaches Then you are wrong your theories are wrong and your belief system is wrong I don't care how many people in the world are following after this I don't care how many things you think you have to prove it Remember they showed us pictures from space didn't they now you can believe those if you want to But you have a choice to believe those things like that or you believe the Word of God. It's that simple now here in this Church and really in the the true Church of Jesus Christ. We're supposed to believe That the Bible is the inspired infallible inherent words of Almighty God God breathe Jesus said man, so they live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God and through archaeology and prophecy and Manuscript evidence and everything else we have absolute proof That the Bible is true and supernatural. It's not just written by men. It's supernatural But you know, that's for unbelievers to struggle with not us Not us not Christians But there is this thing now You know and and I look I praise God we use social media We use the internet we use we used to use YouTube. I think we're still trying in a limited degree We use Facebook we use these things But there are people out there that get their information From folks who are not called to preach and teach. They just took it upon themselves to preach and teach and I just watch people just falling over these videos. Oh That was just so good I'm just like and and they'll want me to watch it and it'll be an hour or two hour long and I'll start on it And it's when it starts getting Unbiblical I go. I don't need to see anymore. I know where this is going and

So today we're gonna deal again with and we're gonna delve into this issue of the nation of Israel the Jews And the Bible and I renamed this I did I had a sermon from about five or six years ago I had a title on it Israel the sign of God and Listen one reason this is really important. I've been told this day the rebirth and regathering of Israel there are literally Christians now and This movement is growing that say that the Israel that is theirs has nothing to do with the Bible or with God or with Bible Prophecy that it's a complete fabrication of the Rothschilds and the Illuminati and all this stuff and Oh, you know, they they have a you know, conniption fit over this star right here. And yes, I know it's the star of Renfant It's not the star of David and and and and let me just get this across to you right now I'm not saying today that everybody in the Israeli government or who lives in Israel is an angel Okay, nor am I saying that everybody that lives in Israel and claims to be a Jew is really a Jew But let's get something real straight at the outset here. There are genetic DNA ethnic Jews That live in Israel and then there are people who are not per se Genetic ethnic Jews, but they converted to Judaism either way They are considered a Jew Okay, even going back to the Old Testament. We saw people convert from pagan being pagans like Ruth to becoming a Hebrew a Jew by choice to worship the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob Okay, so I'm getting a little tired of this nonsense and folks coming at me online with this nonsense Look what they're doing is and what Satan is doing here is one of the biggest fulfilled prophecies of the 20th century Was the day that Israel became a nation again? And what people don't seem to get is it doesn't matter who was involved look? Somebody pull out a dollar bill for me, please Somebody got one dollar bill. Just give me a one dollar bill anybody. Maybe I do Somebody do it faster than I can there it is. All right now folks. Let me tell you something right now Going on is saying like oh because they got the Star of Remph in here and because there's some pagans or there's some Kabbalist or occultist or Whatever you want to call it There's some Jews that say they are not that say they're Jews, but they're not if you want to say all of that Well, let me tell you something the moment you say though Oh, okay, they got that Star of Remph in that the whole thing's evil not of God or there's no Jews There's no literal Jews there. Look anybody could say look look look at our money
