I think it is one of the most embarrassing interviews I’ve seen in a long time, and you wouldn’t have expected it from Ted Cruz. But then again, maybe so. It was the Tucker Carlson interview where Cruz said that the Bible instructs us to support Israel against the world. Tucker caught that statement and wouldn’t let it go, and once he did, Senator Cruz just kept digging in, which was very embarrassing. News flash, it doesn’t say anywhere in the Bible to follow Israel unthinkingly. God himself sought to destroy Israel many times by its enemies for not following his commandments. And who is to say that this modern fight with Iran isn’t just another action by God to destroy Israel because it has drifted too far away from its promises to God as conveyed by the Old Testament? It was astonishing that Ted Cruz, who has been on the short list to be a Supreme Court Justice, who has run for President, and has been a very successful senator, didn’t know one of those basic understandings of the Bible. And we hear that a lot from people who talk about the Bible as a guiding light. They listen to what someone tells them in Sunday school or church on Sunday, and they repeat it themselves, sometimes for a lifetime, because they view the Bible as too hard to read, and they never really do. They may be adamant Christian people, but they never gain firsthand understanding of the Bible, because they never really fully understand it. After all, the Bible is vast and contains a wealth of information, making it challenging to read if you don’t take the time to get to know it. Once Tucker Carlson realized that one of the biggest Biblical cheerleaders in government didn’t understand a basic premise of Biblical perspective, he tore into Ted Cruz, and the Senator just kept digging himself deeper and deeper by trying to walk out of it, only to sink further. It was pretty brutal.
But what it brought up was just how shallow people who profess to know the Bible are. And that when the United Nations essentially created the state of Israel after World War II, many of the people in that movement had the same Biblical understanding of things that Ted Cruz did. They heard something as kids and carried it through their lives, whether or not it was true, and as adults, they advocated a position based purely on a sentiment learned in childhood. If Israel is up to no good and is evil itself, and has fallen into evil ways, would God want us in America to support them regardless of the content of their character? Because that’s not how it ever was in the Bible. God was displeased with many characters in the Bible, and He punished them severely. God punished the people of Israel for not initially attacking the Land of Canaan upon learning from the spies that it was filled with scary, giant people. So God scolded that generation to remain in the wilderness for another 40 years to let the current losers die off. God punished Aaron. He punished Moses, not even allowing his chosen prophet to deliver his people into the Promised Land, and gave that pleasure over to Joshua. God punished King Saul. God punished King David. God punished King Solomon. And eventually God just destroyed all of Israel with the attack of King Nebuchadnezzar, forcing the Jewish people into exile from their holy land and to be servants as slaves to their captors. God sent his son Jesus to redeem the people, and they killed him, leaving God to punish the people of Israel again with the Roman army that destroyed the Temple yet again and slaughtered all the Jewish rebels.
God has been very hard on Israel, yet they are some of the oldest continuous people on the planet. I believe that in the mound culture of North America and other parts of the world, we are witnessing a migration through the Mormon religion, reflecting their deep past and interactions with God. There are unmistakably Jewish relics in the mounds of the Adena and Hopewell people that show a particular connection to the events of the Holy Land. God has been trying for a long time to make the people of Israel into something special, and they have let him down time and time again, scattering them in anger all over the world. So I don’t think that God has suddenly given all the Jewish people a hall pass in modern times to perpetually good judgment and an endorsement from Heaven for continued existence. Given the nature of God in the Bible, it would be likely that Hamas and Iran in general exist to punish the people of Israel for their continued lifestyle of sins. What happened on that terrible day on October 7th 2023 can’t be forgiven, where Palestinian militants attacked kids at the Supernova Sukkot Gathering, an open-air music festival killing at least 364 people and taking around 40 hostages, and brutally raping in public several young women, then breaking up their bodies and throwing them into the back of pick-up trucks while spitting on their distorted bodies. By the time the smoke cleared, 1200 people were killed in a broader attack, and the brutality of it by itself deserves to see the people of Hamas eradicated from the face of the earth because it was so evil.
But by the way God works, such a thing would likely be a political move made against Israel to either punish it for past transgressions, or to rally the world to the cause of Israel, and to use it to conquer evil in the world, which would be why Ted Cruz would believe what he did about the Bible as an assumption. Not a factual statement. And that would be what the people who wanted to create a Jewish state of Israel would think as well, that God wanted them to make it, assuming that they knew God because of something they learned in Sunday school, or passed down through Hermetic tradition as a Masonic community trying to create in the world a New Atlantis to rival the homeland of the ancient past. People believe a lot of things, but the vital thing to always consider is what they know and how they came to know it. I think Matt Gaetz explained it well when he said that the entire reason Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to attack Iran when he did was to wipe out their nuclear weapon development, because he was hanging on to a tight election and needed to give Israel something to rally behind. Everyone is likely guilty of something bad and detrimental; however, the critical thing to know is what the Bible says and what it means. And clearly, Ted Cruz didn’t understand it. It’s one thing to support Western Civilization, which Israel is a creation of, and to impose that on a world that does not like it, want it, and wants to destroy the concept of it completely and utterly. And when it comes to the Palestinians and Islamic fundamentalism, with Marxism looming always in the background, there is no way to live in peace with people like that. The only peace you can ever have in the Middle East is to eradicate the antagonizers all from existence and to pick Western Civilization over the other options. And the Bible would imply that the right way to think is in that fashion. However, that’s what people who follow the Quran believe as well, which creates the foundation of the conflict itself. What Ted Cruz did was get caught making assumptions on something he should have, of all people, clearly understood. Hearing him talk is a reminder of how little people in charge know about the actual reality of existence and what God wants from it. And at best, it’s very dangerous.
