00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,540
Hello, everyone. I'm Stephen Strang and welcome to the Strang Report.
2
00:00:03,540 --> 00:00:08,340
Today, I have the honor of interviewing none other than Rabbi Jonathan Cahn,
3
00:00:08,340 --> 00:00:12,940
the author of The Harbinger and seven other books, each of which has been
4
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:14,700
a New York Times bestseller.
5
00:00:14,700 --> 00:00:19,200
Now he has written a new book called The Dragon's Prophecy
6
00:00:19,340 --> 00:00:21,540
that is coming out right after Labor Day.
7
00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:23,840
And today we get a sneak preview.
8
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:27,640
I talked to him when I was in New Jersey where he lives.
9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,840
We actually went to a restaurant.
10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,200
He is so busy, I can't really get him in his studio.
11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,100
But I took out my cell phone and did a short interview,
12
00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:37,840
which I'm going to share with you.
13
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,760
I think you'll find it interesting.
14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,600
And then toward the end of the podcast, I'm going to share some things
15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,040
that he put on his podcast yesterday.
16
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,160
And it is really taken off.
17
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:53,000
It has to do with the attempted assassination of President
18
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:54,860
Donald Trump.
19
00:00:54,860 --> 00:00:57,100
And you're going to find this very, very interesting.
20
00:00:57,100 --> 00:01:00,300
In fact, you'll want to watch his podcast.
21
00:01:00,460 --> 00:01:04,360
I think you're going to really enjoy my interview with Rabbi Jonathan Cahn.
22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,400
So be sure to stay tuned.
23
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,600
Welcome back.
24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,200
I have the privilege of being Jonathan Cahn's publisher, and because of that,
25
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:24,760
I make it a point to sit down with him a couple of times a year.
26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,660
And it just so happened that I was with him at a restaurant,
27
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:33,200
having a meal, talking over business, you know how you do.
28
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:36,860
When I got the text message that President Joe Biden
29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,340
had just announced on X that he was dropping out of the presidential race.
30
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:46,200
I mean, literally, he did it at one forty five.
31
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,640
I looked on my cell phone. It was two oh seven.
32
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,440
It was just a few minutes later.
33
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,500
So Jonathan Cahn and I were discussing it.
34
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:55,100
And I just think that is very interesting.
35
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:59,300
And then also we talked about some of the significance
36
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,140
of what happened with the attempted assassination
37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:09,600
of President Trump, even down to the fact that it was in Butler, Pennsylvania.
38
00:02:10,100 --> 00:02:14,900
And you need to see his video, which went up on YouTube
39
00:02:15,140 --> 00:02:16,700
in the last day or two.
40
00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:18,580
But I'm going to give you my summary.
41
00:02:18,580 --> 00:02:22,980
Now, first of all, I knew that I needed to get a short
42
00:02:22,980 --> 00:02:24,380
some shorts with Jonathan Cahn.
43
00:02:24,380 --> 00:02:27,180
We will probably put these on YouTube by themselves.
44
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:32,640
But the first question that I asked him was the fact that his books
45
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,740
often tie into world events and a lot has been happening lately,
46
00:02:36,740 --> 00:02:40,400
as everybody knows, until I asked him to tell me
47
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,400
about his newest book, The Dragon's Prophecy.
48
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,400
In many ways, Dragon Prophecy is is unlike
49
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,800
unlike any other book I've done.
50
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:57,320
That is the first one that totally is opening up end time prophecy on Israel.
51
00:02:57,700 --> 00:03:02,060
So the subtitle is Israel, the dark resurrection and the end of days.
52
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,500
And I was not planning on writing this.
53
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:08,120
I was planning on writing the sequel to The Return of the Gods.
54
00:03:08,460 --> 00:03:10,360
But I got interrupted.
55
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,360
It was it was no question that was the Lord.
56
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:19,060
It is what we have been watching in the world is like an acceleration of prophecy.
57
00:03:19,060 --> 00:03:21,160
I've never seen a time where so many events
58
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,460
pathetically concerning Israel and what the Bible speaks about
59
00:03:25,460 --> 00:03:27,180
happening so rapidly.
60
00:03:27,180 --> 00:03:30,520
So this is opening that up and opening up a lot of mysteries that
61
00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:34,260
may be shocking for people for the first time
62
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,820
for the new things that are in the news all the time.
63
00:03:36,820 --> 00:03:38,260
But it's a whole nother revelation.
64
00:03:38,260 --> 00:03:40,160
It's a whole nother
65
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,880
whole other dimension of what's really happening and entities that are behind what is going on.
66
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,680
Things from the book of Revelation that are actually
67
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,260
related to what is happening now.
68
00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:54,460
This is not hype. It's real.
69
00:03:54,460 --> 00:04:00,760
And a war that is affecting not only Israel, but the church and
70
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:08,260
every believer, every believer is part of this war whether they know it or not.
71
00:04:08,260 --> 00:04:11,360
And how to overcome how to how to fight it.
72
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,160
What are the strategies? So it's prophetic.
73
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,960
I mean deals with history, deals with prophecy, deals very much with what's happening and where it's going.
74
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,160
The largest section of the book is called the end of days.
75
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,060
Even the prophecies of Ezekiel.
76
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,660
Things that have been happening that have been crossing some very important
77
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:32,660
unprecedented prophetic lines that have never been before.
78
00:04:32,660 --> 00:04:34,460
So it's really in many ways.
79
00:04:34,460 --> 00:04:41,360
I mean, it's unlike any book I've written except that it's opening up mysteries that are for now
80
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,560
and for yet to go.
81
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,760
And I asked him about some of his previous books and
82
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:53,760
how he talked about how biblical figures often relate to current political figures.
83
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,860
And one of the ones that struck me was his comparison between King
84
00:04:57,860 --> 00:05:00,560
J. Hugh in the Bible and Donald Trump.
85
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,560
And I asked him to explain.
86
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:09,960
Yeah, it's an amazing thing because if you go back in the last quarter century and more
87
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:17,560
that the major leaders in America are following this this prototype of leaders on the Bible without knowing it
88
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,160
and it's precise.
89
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:27,060
I mean it down to the years that they're on the stage down to exact days for events like 9-11 and others.
90
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:29,460
And then it leads up to J. Hugh.
91
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:34,060
J. Hugh was wild. He was unpredictable.
92
00:05:34,060 --> 00:05:36,660
He was unlikely.
93
00:05:36,660 --> 00:05:37,760
He was not a politician.
94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,460
He was a fighter.
95
00:05:39,460 --> 00:05:41,560
Trump is all that.
96
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:48,960
J. Hugh was anointed by God despite himself was anointed to put an end to the house of Aham
97
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,060
and the nation was falling away from God.
98
00:05:51,060 --> 00:05:54,660
J. Hugh was like a reprieve in some ways.
99
00:05:54,660 --> 00:05:57,360
It opened the door where there could have been reliable.
100
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:03,760
Trump is like that in many ways raised up, you know, and for a window of time, you know,
101
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,860
and what just happens, you know, interesting because J.
102
00:06:07,860 --> 00:06:11,460
Hugh is the one leader more than any of the other Kings.
103
00:06:11,460 --> 00:06:17,160
It was a military who is a general and so he would have been involved.
104
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,960
He would have been in the line of fire all the time.
105
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,660
Trump was just in the line of fire.
106
00:06:22,660 --> 00:06:22,960
J.
107
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,160
Hugh outlasts everybody.
108
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,160
He survives, you know, in that.
109
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,460
The other thing is that what happened with J.
110
00:06:30,460 --> 00:06:38,560
Hugh, you know in the paradigm now, I wrote the paradigm, I believe around 2008 17 18
111
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,260
and things have come true since then that are better in the template like January 6
112
00:06:43,260 --> 00:06:48,960
is part of this town, but what I call him in the in the paradigm and I call him the
113
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,160
J.
114
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:54,660
Hugh the warrior King now, I never heard Trump prefer like that but working but what
115
00:06:54,660 --> 00:07:00,660
just happens because what and when he got up and they said fight fight fight he is now
116
00:07:00,660 --> 00:07:02,960
being called that you could do a Google search.
117
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,660
It'll all be after the most everything will be after the election.
118
00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:08,060
I mean after the assassination attempt.
119
00:07:08,060 --> 00:07:12,860
They'll call him Trump is the warrior another one Trump is you know, these people say he's
120
00:07:12,860 --> 00:07:17,160
a warrior someone on Fox News said he's the warrior president metallic.
121
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,460
I called him the warrior King.
122
00:07:18,460 --> 00:07:20,160
He's now called the warrior president.
123
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,860
So this is all part of this, you know, he's the fighter.
124
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:30,460
So and then there are some things in the paradigm that might actually give us a clue of what's
125
00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:32,860
going to happen now like that go into it.
126
00:07:32,860 --> 00:07:37,860
But but because I keep looking back at it and said, whoa, there's more things there,
127
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:40,760
you know, Jonathan Cahn has written eight bestsellers.
128
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,660
He has quite a following.
129
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:46,460
There are many people like me who just love his books.
130
00:07:46,460 --> 00:07:52,660
And so I asked him why he feels that this book is his most important and more and most
131
00:07:52,660 --> 00:07:59,260
timely and also why the early indications on the book with things like pre-orders is
132
00:07:59,260 --> 00:08:05,060
significantly higher than any of his other books one thing we've never we've never had
133
00:08:05,060 --> 00:08:12,460
a response like this from a groundswell of people the interest of pre-ordering it and
134
00:08:12,460 --> 00:08:18,460
I mean as you just shared with me at this before we came together it is it is beyond
135
00:08:18,460 --> 00:08:19,860
anything we've ever known.
136
00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:22,260
So there's a real interest of where it is.
137
00:08:22,260 --> 00:08:24,660
First of all, it's interesting because I got the thing about the dragon.
138
00:08:24,660 --> 00:08:28,540
I didn't realize I said I'm start writing it at the beginning of 2020 core.
139
00:08:28,540 --> 00:08:29,540
It's the year of the dragon.
140
00:08:29,540 --> 00:08:31,100
It's still the year of the dragon.
141
00:08:31,100 --> 00:08:32,100
There's all these signs of that.
142
00:08:32,100 --> 00:08:33,100
What does that mean?
143
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:37,260
The dragon is linked to the enemy and it's a war and we are and also that this has been
144
00:08:37,260 --> 00:08:38,780
a year of warfare.
145
00:08:38,780 --> 00:08:42,900
Whether Israel or Ukraine continuing what in the political realm.
146
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:44,440
I mean it's got on.
147
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,380
So this is really we are very guilt.
148
00:08:47,380 --> 00:08:51,020
I'll put it this way when all these things started happening in Israel October 7, which
149
00:08:51,020 --> 00:08:55,540
began all this and then Iran invading attacking Israel never happened before.
150
00:08:55,540 --> 00:08:58,180
But Ezekiel speaks along those lines.
151
00:08:58,180 --> 00:09:00,900
I mean Revelation speaks along the line.
152
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:06,740
So more people who are very much attuned are saying this is all in time prophecy and it
153
00:09:06,740 --> 00:09:08,620
is we are living in this.
154
00:09:08,620 --> 00:09:10,240
We need to know the signs of the times.
155
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,100
We need to know also the war we're in because if you're in a war and you don't realize it,
156
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:15,280
you're not going to win.
157
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,560
And so it's very dramatic.
158
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:20,740
It's very there are stunning things in there.
159
00:09:20,740 --> 00:09:25,440
It's going to go against the grain of the cult of the media and all that.
160
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,500
But it's very powerful, very important because we're all we're all part of it right now.
161
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:34,000
Well, I hope that that makes you want to read the dragon's prophecy.
162
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,380
As I said, and as he said, the pre orders are absolutely astounding.
163
00:09:39,380 --> 00:09:44,480
I could just tell you as his publisher that the pre orders are double what we've had before.
164
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,740
And part of it is the YouTube videos that he has done.
165
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:52,060
He'll do a YouTube video on something that he feels is prophetic.
166
00:09:52,060 --> 00:09:57,120
He'll mention the book, not really as a commercial, but he just mentions the book and people go
167
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:03,820
on Amazon.com or some of the other online booksellers and order the book.
168
00:10:03,820 --> 00:10:10,000
And what they do is they wait and bill your credit card on release day, which is a day
169
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,220
after Labor Day.
170
00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:13,160
I believe that's September 3rd.
171
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,660
And then they ship you the book.
172
00:10:14,660 --> 00:10:16,700
I know that because I sign up.
173
00:10:16,700 --> 00:10:19,200
I want to kind of see how quickly they come.
174
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,200
This is just how it works in the book business.
175
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:26,620
And if you want to be one of the first people to get it, of course, it'll also be on stores.
176
00:10:26,620 --> 00:10:29,260
It'll be really everywhere the Christian books are sold.
177
00:10:29,260 --> 00:10:31,700
I think this is a very important book.
178
00:10:31,700 --> 00:10:39,380
As he referred to, he ties in what's happening in Israel with the war with Hamas and the
179
00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:40,980
book of Revelation.
180
00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:45,260
Now he hasn't really dealt with Bible prophecy before.
181
00:10:45,260 --> 00:10:50,320
He mainly takes things that happened in the Old Testament that God is dealing with the
182
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:57,500
people of Israel and shows parallels even with Jehu that we just talked about, but also
183
00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:00,540
with Ahab and Jezebel.
184
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:03,620
And I won't take time to mention all of them.
185
00:11:03,620 --> 00:11:06,020
And so this book is groundbreaking.
186
00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:11,100
He talks about the end of time and it seems like we're speeding toward the end of time.
187
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:15,260
I mean, things are just so very, very chaotic.
188
00:11:15,260 --> 00:11:18,340
Then his latest video, which you can look up on YouTube.
189
00:11:18,340 --> 00:11:22,140
In fact, we're going to have the link in the comments below because you really need to
190
00:11:22,140 --> 00:11:23,140
watch it.
191
00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:24,140
It's about half an hour long.
192
00:11:24,140 --> 00:11:29,940
I'm going to give you the Cliff Notes version, but he there's something with Levitical tradition,
193
00:11:29,940 --> 00:11:32,140
I guess you'd call it, with the priest.
194
00:11:32,140 --> 00:11:36,820
This is all the way back in the Old Testament where the priest would be anointed their right
195
00:11:36,820 --> 00:11:43,100
ear and their thumb, their right thumb and their right foot.
196
00:11:43,100 --> 00:11:44,660
And he gives disclaimers.
197
00:11:44,660 --> 00:11:47,580
He said, Donald Trump is not a Levite.
198
00:11:47,580 --> 00:11:48,860
This is not the Old Testament.
199
00:11:48,860 --> 00:11:54,340
But isn't it interesting that he was shot and there was blood on his right ear?
200
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:59,340
There's a picture, a famous picture that you've probably seen of a close up that a photographer
201
00:11:59,340 --> 00:12:03,260
was able to get with blood dripping down his face and on his thumb.
202
00:12:03,260 --> 00:12:06,580
And if you watch the video, you can hear him saying, where are my shoes?
203
00:12:06,580 --> 00:12:07,580
Where are my shoes?
204
00:12:07,580 --> 00:12:09,060
When they were trying to carry them off.
205
00:12:09,060 --> 00:12:11,820
So we can only speculate.
206
00:12:11,820 --> 00:12:14,940
Rabbi Cahn goes into all of this about Donald Trump.
207
00:12:14,940 --> 00:12:17,820
I just think that these things are interesting.
208
00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:21,420
Now some people just poo poo all that and say, well, it doesn't mean anything.
209
00:12:21,420 --> 00:12:27,980
I think that if we take that added to, we miss these interesting God moments where God
210
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:37,260
is kind of showing up and using just things that happen to show what is his will and purpose.
211
00:12:37,260 --> 00:12:44,460
I personally believe that God has raised up Donald Trump as a disruptor to disrupt the
212
00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:50,100
work of the enemy in which he's trying to take this country into socialism, into woke
213
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:53,860
ism as they call it, a lot of bad things.
214
00:12:53,860 --> 00:12:58,220
I talk about this with some regularity on my podcast.
215
00:12:58,220 --> 00:12:59,260
That's not my purpose today.
216
00:12:59,260 --> 00:13:07,580
My purpose today is to point out this very, very interesting YouTube video by Jonathan
217
00:13:07,580 --> 00:13:15,740
Cahn because I had already planned to talk and to show the video that I took at the restaurant
218
00:13:15,740 --> 00:13:18,020
because I knew that I would want to show it on my podcast.
219
00:13:18,020 --> 00:13:25,620
Now earlier in the podcast, I mentioned Butler, Pennsylvania, and when I was with Rabbi Cahn,
220
00:13:25,620 --> 00:13:26,740
he did not mention this.
221
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:30,860
We did talk about the other, but he thinks it is significant.
222
00:13:30,860 --> 00:13:33,380
Even the name of the place, Butler.
223
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:39,120
Now a butler we think of is someone who waits, has a little towel over his arm and a black
224
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,080
suit and kind of is a server.
225
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:48,180
The word going all the way back to the Latin and French is very close to the word bottle,
226
00:13:48,180 --> 00:13:49,980
bottle butler.
227
00:13:49,980 --> 00:13:59,340
And in Middle English, it would have been someone who served water like a cup bearer.
228
00:13:59,340 --> 00:14:04,980
And in the Old Testament, there were cup bears that were like secret service to the king
229
00:14:04,980 --> 00:14:08,320
because sometimes people wanted to assassinate the king.
230
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,920
And back then, it was often putting poison in their food.
231
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:19,660
So the cup bearer would drink the wine or whatever they were drinking and eat some of
232
00:14:19,660 --> 00:14:20,660
the food.
233
00:14:20,660 --> 00:14:25,540
And if the cup bearer didn't fall over dead, they knew it was safe for the king to do.
234
00:14:25,540 --> 00:14:29,220
Now I remember hearing that growing up in Sunday school.
235
00:14:29,220 --> 00:14:34,100
I had never associated it with what happened with Donald Trump.
236
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:35,700
But isn't that interesting?
237
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:43,340
The Butler, Pennsylvania, the cup bearer who saved the king from assassination.
238
00:14:43,340 --> 00:14:50,500
Now Rabbi Cahn says it ever so much more eloquently than I am, but I wanted to share this because
239
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:54,500
I knew that my viewers and listeners would find it very interesting.
240
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:59,940
I also want to encourage you to get the Dragon's Prophecy.
241
00:14:59,940 --> 00:15:02,540
This is actually a copy that just came off the press.
242
00:15:02,540 --> 00:15:09,140
It's not available to the public until release date, except for a few ministries like Sid,
243
00:15:09,140 --> 00:15:12,340
Ross, It's Supernatural.
244
00:15:12,340 --> 00:15:14,340
But there's a lot of interest in this book.
245
00:15:14,340 --> 00:15:16,060
This is a very important book.
246
00:15:16,060 --> 00:15:20,860
I also encourage you to watch that video by Jonathan Cahn and to share it.
247
00:15:20,860 --> 00:15:26,240
We need to get these videos to go viral because all this commentary on TV, and I'm sure you're
248
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:31,120
watching the different programs or looking at things on YouTube, with all these people
249
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,860
having an opinion about what's going on on the left and the right.
250
00:15:34,860 --> 00:15:39,180
One of the things that we do here at Charisma Media, and I mentioned this from time to time,
251
00:15:39,180 --> 00:15:44,060
but I want to really emphasize it today, is we look at it from the spiritual perspective.
252
00:15:44,060 --> 00:15:50,780
The spiritual world is more real than the physical world that we see and touch.
253
00:15:50,780 --> 00:15:55,620
But most people, in fact, non-believers, can't even understand it.
254
00:15:55,620 --> 00:15:58,100
And even a lot of believers don't really understand it.
255
00:15:58,100 --> 00:16:04,680
And I think this is why Jonathan Cahn's gift is just so important to the Christian community.
256
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:10,660
We call it the body of Christ, to help us to understand God's plans and purposes and
257
00:16:10,660 --> 00:16:15,380
how it applies in our lives and how we can navigate this.
258
00:16:15,380 --> 00:16:20,580
This book talks about some pretty bad things that are happening, but it gives hope because
259
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:23,260
you have to realize that God is still in control.
260
00:16:23,260 --> 00:16:28,340
No matter who's in the White House, no matter what wars are going on in the world, God is
261
00:16:28,340 --> 00:16:29,940
still in control.
262
00:16:29,940 --> 00:16:35,020
Now some of us believe that this is building up to the great battles that are discussed
263
00:16:35,020 --> 00:16:39,380
in the book of Revelation, and Jonathan Cahn goes into that in the book.
264
00:16:39,380 --> 00:16:40,380
I know.
265
00:16:40,380 --> 00:16:42,180
I've read his book twice.
266
00:16:42,180 --> 00:16:47,420
I read the very early version when he sent it into the editors, and I read it when it
267
00:16:47,420 --> 00:16:50,380
was finished and went to the printers.
268
00:16:50,380 --> 00:16:52,060
It is an excellent book.
269
00:16:52,060 --> 00:16:54,020
It's a fascinating read.
270
00:16:54,020 --> 00:16:57,340
Once you pick it up, it's the kind of book that you can't put down.
271
00:16:57,340 --> 00:17:02,420
I'll also just mention, since we're talking about Donald Trump leading up into the election,
272
00:17:02,420 --> 00:17:08,140
I'm going to pivot in my podcast, and I'm going to deal more with some of the books
273
00:17:08,140 --> 00:17:10,060
that I've written about Donald Trump.
274
00:17:10,060 --> 00:17:12,380
I've had the opportunity to interview him.
275
00:17:12,380 --> 00:17:16,380
I've written four different books about him.
276
00:17:16,380 --> 00:17:22,220
And there's an awful lot of material from a spiritual point of view that discuss what
277
00:17:22,220 --> 00:17:23,740
is God doing in America.
278
00:17:23,740 --> 00:17:28,140
And even though they were written a couple of years ago, a lot of these issues are still
279
00:17:28,140 --> 00:17:31,660
valid and they're good reads.
280
00:17:31,660 --> 00:17:32,660
You can get them.
281
00:17:32,660 --> 00:17:37,660
My secretary just showed me today that my numbers have really shot up on Amazon.com
282
00:17:37,660 --> 00:17:39,740
because people are just interested in this.
283
00:17:39,740 --> 00:17:43,660
And even some of the things that are a little bit passe, it's really interesting to read
284
00:17:43,660 --> 00:17:48,900
them from the perspective of being a couple of years later and trying to understand what
285
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:51,500
God is saying and what God is doing.
286
00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:53,700
So with that, I'll just wrap up this podcast.
287
00:17:53,700 --> 00:17:58,380
I'll encourage you to subscribe, especially if this resonates to you.
288
00:17:58,380 --> 00:18:05,580
If you're a person who hears my voice and who appreciates my perspective and my commentary,
289
00:18:05,580 --> 00:18:07,300
I encourage you to subscribe.
290
00:18:07,300 --> 00:18:10,220
The subscriptions are going up every single day.
291
00:18:10,220 --> 00:18:11,500
Thank you very much.
292
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:13,020
And be sure to hit the little bell.
293
00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:17,580
My producer tells me that when you hit the little bell, and I've done that myself with
294
00:18:17,580 --> 00:18:23,740
different places that I subscribe, it lets you know when we're on live every Tuesday
295
00:18:23,740 --> 00:18:28,500
and Thursday, 4 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
296
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:30,820
And be sure to share this with others.
297
00:18:30,820 --> 00:18:34,740
As we share these things, they can kind of go viral.
298
00:18:34,740 --> 00:18:38,020
And a lot of people need to see what Jonathan Cahn has to say.
299
00:18:38,020 --> 00:18:42,020
A lot of people are interested in the book, and I think they'll enjoy this perspective
300
00:18:42,020 --> 00:18:43,080
that I have today.
301
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,500
So thank you for helping us get out the word.
302
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:49,620
Tune in again for another episode of The Strang Report.
303
00:18:49,620 --> 00:19:12,300
Until then, God bless you.
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,540
Hello, everyone. I'm Stephen Strang and welcome to the Strang Report.
2
00:00:03,540 --> 00:00:08,340
Today, I have the honor of interviewing none other than Rabbi Jonathan Cahn,
3
00:00:08,340 --> 00:00:12,940
the author of The Harbinger and seven other books, each of which has been
4
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:14,700
a New York Times bestseller.
5
00:00:14,700 --> 00:00:19,200
Now he has written a new book called The Dragon's Prophecy
6
00:00:19,340 --> 00:00:21,540
that is coming out right after Labor Day.
7
00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:23,840
And today we get a sneak preview.
8
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:27,640
I talked to him when I was in New Jersey where he lives.
9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,840
We actually went to a restaurant.
10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,200
He is so busy, I can't really get him in his studio.
11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,100
But I took out my cell phone and did a short interview,
12
00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:37,840
which I'm going to share with you.
13
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,760
I think you'll find it interesting.
14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,600
And then toward the end of the podcast, I'm going to share some things
15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,040
that he put on his podcast yesterday.
16
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,160
And it is really taken off.
17
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:53,000
It has to do with the attempted assassination of President
18
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:54,860
Donald Trump.
19
00:00:54,860 --> 00:00:57,100
And you're going to find this very, very interesting.
20
00:00:57,100 --> 00:01:00,300
In fact, you'll want to watch his podcast.
21
00:01:00,460 --> 00:01:04,360
I think you're going to really enjoy my interview with Rabbi Jonathan Cahn.
22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,400
So be sure to stay tuned.
23
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,600
Welcome back.
24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,200
I have the privilege of being Jonathan Cahn's publisher, and because of that,
25
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:24,760
I make it a point to sit down with him a couple of times a year.
26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,660
And it just so happened that I was with him at a restaurant,
27
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:33,200
having a meal, talking over business, you know how you do.
28
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:36,860
When I got the text message that President Joe Biden
29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,340
had just announced on X that he was dropping out of the presidential race.
30
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:46,200
I mean, literally, he did it at one forty five.
31
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,640
I looked on my cell phone. It was two oh seven.
32
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,440
It was just a few minutes later.
33
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,500
So Jonathan Cahn and I were discussing it.
34
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:55,100
And I just think that is very interesting.
35
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:59,300
And then also we talked about some of the significance
36
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,140
of what happened with the attempted assassination
37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:09,600
of President Trump, even down to the fact that it was in Butler, Pennsylvania.
38
00:02:10,100 --> 00:02:14,900
And you need to see his video, which went up on YouTube
39
00:02:15,140 --> 00:02:16,700
in the last day or two.
40
00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:18,580
But I'm going to give you my summary.
41
00:02:18,580 --> 00:02:22,980
Now, first of all, I knew that I needed to get a short
42
00:02:22,980 --> 00:02:24,380
some shorts with Jonathan Cahn.
43
00:02:24,380 --> 00:02:27,180
We will probably put these on YouTube by themselves.
44
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:32,640
But the first question that I asked him was the fact that his books
45
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,740
often tie into world events and a lot has been happening lately,
46
00:02:36,740 --> 00:02:40,400
as everybody knows, until I asked him to tell me
47
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,400
about his newest book, The Dragon's Prophecy.
48
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,400
In many ways, Dragon Prophecy is is unlike
49
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,800
unlike any other book I've done.
50
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:57,320
That is the first one that totally is opening up end time prophecy on Israel.
51
00:02:57,700 --> 00:03:02,060
So the subtitle is Israel, the dark resurrection and the end of days.
52
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,500
And I was not planning on writing this.
53
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:08,120
I was planning on writing the sequel to The Return of the Gods.
54
00:03:08,460 --> 00:03:10,360
But I got interrupted.
55
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,360
It was it was no question that was the Lord.
56
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:19,060
It is what we have been watching in the world is like an acceleration of prophecy.
57
00:03:19,060 --> 00:03:21,160
I've never seen a time where so many events
58
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,460
pathetically concerning Israel and what the Bible speaks about
59
00:03:25,460 --> 00:03:27,180
happening so rapidly.
60
00:03:27,180 --> 00:03:30,520
So this is opening that up and opening up a lot of mysteries that
61
00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:34,260
may be shocking for people for the first time
62
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,820
for the new things that are in the news all the time.
63
00:03:36,820 --> 00:03:38,260
But it's a whole nother revelation.
64
00:03:38,260 --> 00:03:40,160
It's a whole nother
65
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,880
whole other dimension of what's really happening and entities that are behind what is going on.
66
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,680
Things from the book of Revelation that are actually
67
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,260
related to what is happening now.
68
00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:54,460
This is not hype. It's real.
69
00:03:54,460 --> 00:04:00,760
And a war that is affecting not only Israel, but the church and
70
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:08,260
every believer, every believer is part of this war whether they know it or not.
71
00:04:08,260 --> 00:04:11,360
And how to overcome how to how to fight it.
72
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,160
What are the strategies? So it's prophetic.
73
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,960
I mean deals with history, deals with prophecy, deals very much with what's happening and where it's going.
74
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,160
The largest section of the book is called the end of days.
75
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,060
Even the prophecies of Ezekiel.
76
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,660
Things that have been happening that have been crossing some very important
77
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:32,660
unprecedented prophetic lines that have never been before.
78
00:04:32,660 --> 00:04:34,460
So it's really in many ways.
79
00:04:34,460 --> 00:04:41,360
I mean, it's unlike any book I've written except that it's opening up mysteries that are for now
80
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,560
and for yet to go.
81
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,760
And I asked him about some of his previous books and
82
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:53,760
how he talked about how biblical figures often relate to current political figures.
83
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,860
And one of the ones that struck me was his comparison between King
84
00:04:57,860 --> 00:05:00,560
J. Hugh in the Bible and Donald Trump.
85
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,560
And I asked him to explain.
86
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:09,960
Yeah, it's an amazing thing because if you go back in the last quarter century and more
87
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:17,560
that the major leaders in America are following this this prototype of leaders on the Bible without knowing it
88
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,160
and it's precise.
89
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:27,060
I mean it down to the years that they're on the stage down to exact days for events like 9-11 and others.
90
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:29,460
And then it leads up to J. Hugh.
91
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:34,060
J. Hugh was wild. He was unpredictable.
92
00:05:34,060 --> 00:05:36,660
He was unlikely.
93
00:05:36,660 --> 00:05:37,760
He was not a politician.
94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,460
He was a fighter.
95
00:05:39,460 --> 00:05:41,560
Trump is all that.
96
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:48,960
J. Hugh was anointed by God despite himself was anointed to put an end to the house of Aham
97
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,060
and the nation was falling away from God.
98
00:05:51,060 --> 00:05:54,660
J. Hugh was like a reprieve in some ways.
99
00:05:54,660 --> 00:05:57,360
It opened the door where there could have been reliable.
100
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:03,760
Trump is like that in many ways raised up, you know, and for a window of time, you know,
101
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,860
and what just happens, you know, interesting because J.
102
00:06:07,860 --> 00:06:11,460
Hugh is the one leader more than any of the other Kings.
103
00:06:11,460 --> 00:06:17,160
It was a military who is a general and so he would have been involved.
104
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,960
He would have been in the line of fire all the time.
105
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,660
Trump was just in the line of fire.
106
00:06:22,660 --> 00:06:22,960
J.
107
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,160
Hugh outlasts everybody.
108
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,160
He survives, you know, in that.
109
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,460
The other thing is that what happened with J.
110
00:06:30,460 --> 00:06:38,560
Hugh, you know in the paradigm now, I wrote the paradigm, I believe around 2008 17 18
111
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,260
and things have come true since then that are better in the template like January 6
112
00:06:43,260 --> 00:06:48,960
is part of this town, but what I call him in the in the paradigm and I call him the
113
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,160
J.
114
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:54,660
Hugh the warrior King now, I never heard Trump prefer like that but working but what
115
00:06:54,660 --> 00:07:00,660
just happens because what and when he got up and they said fight fight fight he is now
116
00:07:00,660 --> 00:07:02,960
being called that you could do a Google search.
117
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,660
It'll all be after the most everything will be after the election.
118
00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:08,060
I mean after the assassination attempt.
119
00:07:08,060 --> 00:07:12,860
They'll call him Trump is the warrior another one Trump is you know, these people say he's
120
00:07:12,860 --> 00:07:17,160
a warrior someone on Fox News said he's the warrior president metallic.
121
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,460
I called him the warrior King.
122
00:07:18,460 --> 00:07:20,160
He's now called the warrior president.
123
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,860
So this is all part of this, you know, he's the fighter.
124
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:30,460
So and then there are some things in the paradigm that might actually give us a clue of what's
125
00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:32,860
going to happen now like that go into it.
126
00:07:32,860 --> 00:07:37,860
But but because I keep looking back at it and said, whoa, there's more things there,
127
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:40,760
you know, Jonathan Cahn has written eight bestsellers.
128
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,660
He has quite a following.
129
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:46,460
There are many people like me who just love his books.
130
00:07:46,460 --> 00:07:52,660
And so I asked him why he feels that this book is his most important and more and most
131
00:07:52,660 --> 00:07:59,260
timely and also why the early indications on the book with things like pre-orders is
132
00:07:59,260 --> 00:08:05,060
significantly higher than any of his other books one thing we've never we've never had
133
00:08:05,060 --> 00:08:12,460
a response like this from a groundswell of people the interest of pre-ordering it and
134
00:08:12,460 --> 00:08:18,460
I mean as you just shared with me at this before we came together it is it is beyond
135
00:08:18,460 --> 00:08:19,860
anything we've ever known.
136
00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:22,260
So there's a real interest of where it is.
137
00:08:22,260 --> 00:08:24,660
First of all, it's interesting because I got the thing about the dragon.
138
00:08:24,660 --> 00:08:28,540
I didn't realize I said I'm start writing it at the beginning of 2020 core.
139
00:08:28,540 --> 00:08:29,540
It's the year of the dragon.
140
00:08:29,540 --> 00:08:31,100
It's still the year of the dragon.
141
00:08:31,100 --> 00:08:32,100
There's all these signs of that.
142
00:08:32,100 --> 00:08:33,100
What does that mean?
143
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:37,260
The dragon is linked to the enemy and it's a war and we are and also that this has been
144
00:08:37,260 --> 00:08:38,780
a year of warfare.
145
00:08:38,780 --> 00:08:42,900
Whether Israel or Ukraine continuing what in the political realm.
146
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:44,440
I mean it's got on.
147
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,380
So this is really we are very guilt.
148
00:08:47,380 --> 00:08:51,020
I'll put it this way when all these things started happening in Israel October 7, which
149
00:08:51,020 --> 00:08:55,540
began all this and then Iran invading attacking Israel never happened before.
150
00:08:55,540 --> 00:08:58,180
But Ezekiel speaks along those lines.
151
00:08:58,180 --> 00:09:00,900
I mean Revelation speaks along the line.
152
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:06,740
So more people who are very much attuned are saying this is all in time prophecy and it
153
00:09:06,740 --> 00:09:08,620
is we are living in this.
154
00:09:08,620 --> 00:09:10,240
We need to know the signs of the times.
155
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,100
We need to know also the war we're in because if you're in a war and you don't realize it,
156
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:15,280
you're not going to win.
157
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,560
And so it's very dramatic.
158
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:20,740
It's very there are stunning things in there.
159
00:09:20,740 --> 00:09:25,440
It's going to go against the grain of the cult of the media and all that.
160
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,500
But it's very powerful, very important because we're all we're all part of it right now.
161
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:34,000
Well, I hope that that makes you want to read the dragon's prophecy.
162
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,380
As I said, and as he said, the pre orders are absolutely astounding.
163
00:09:39,380 --> 00:09:44,480
I could just tell you as his publisher that the pre orders are double what we've had before.
164
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,740
And part of it is the YouTube videos that he has done.
165
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:52,060
He'll do a YouTube video on something that he feels is prophetic.
166
00:09:52,060 --> 00:09:57,120
He'll mention the book, not really as a commercial, but he just mentions the book and people go
167
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:03,820
on Amazon.com or some of the other online booksellers and order the book.
168
00:10:03,820 --> 00:10:10,000
And what they do is they wait and bill your credit card on release day, which is a day
169
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,220
after Labor Day.
170
00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:13,160
I believe that's September 3rd.
171
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,660
And then they ship you the book.
172
00:10:14,660 --> 00:10:16,700
I know that because I sign up.
173
00:10:16,700 --> 00:10:19,200
I want to kind of see how quickly they come.
174
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,200
This is just how it works in the book business.
175
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:26,620
And if you want to be one of the first people to get it, of course, it'll also be on stores.
176
00:10:26,620 --> 00:10:29,260
It'll be really everywhere the Christian books are sold.
177
00:10:29,260 --> 00:10:31,700
I think this is a very important book.
178
00:10:31,700 --> 00:10:39,380
As he referred to, he ties in what's happening in Israel with the war with Hamas and the
179
00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:40,980
book of Revelation.
180
00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:45,260
Now he hasn't really dealt with Bible prophecy before.
181
00:10:45,260 --> 00:10:50,320
He mainly takes things that happened in the Old Testament that God is dealing with the
182
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:57,500
people of Israel and shows parallels even with Jehu that we just talked about, but also
183
00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:00,540
with Ahab and Jezebel.
184
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:03,620
And I won't take time to mention all of them.
185
00:11:03,620 --> 00:11:06,020
And so this book is groundbreaking.
186
00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:11,100
He talks about the end of time and it seems like we're speeding toward the end of time.
187
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:15,260
I mean, things are just so very, very chaotic.
188
00:11:15,260 --> 00:11:18,340
Then his latest video, which you can look up on YouTube.
189
00:11:18,340 --> 00:11:22,140
In fact, we're going to have the link in the comments below because you really need to
190
00:11:22,140 --> 00:11:23,140
watch it.
191
00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:24,140
It's about half an hour long.
192
00:11:24,140 --> 00:11:29,940
I'm going to give you the Cliff Notes version, but he there's something with Levitical tradition,
193
00:11:29,940 --> 00:11:32,140
I guess you'd call it, with the priest.
194
00:11:32,140 --> 00:11:36,820
This is all the way back in the Old Testament where the priest would be anointed their right
195
00:11:36,820 --> 00:11:43,100
ear and their thumb, their right thumb and their right foot.
196
00:11:43,100 --> 00:11:44,660
And he gives disclaimers.
197
00:11:44,660 --> 00:11:47,580
He said, Donald Trump is not a Levite.
198
00:11:47,580 --> 00:11:48,860
This is not the Old Testament.
199
00:11:48,860 --> 00:11:54,340
But isn't it interesting that he was shot and there was blood on his right ear?
200
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:59,340
There's a picture, a famous picture that you've probably seen of a close up that a photographer
201
00:11:59,340 --> 00:12:03,260
was able to get with blood dripping down his face and on his thumb.
202
00:12:03,260 --> 00:12:06,580
And if you watch the video, you can hear him saying, where are my shoes?
203
00:12:06,580 --> 00:12:07,580
Where are my shoes?
204
00:12:07,580 --> 00:12:09,060
When they were trying to carry them off.
205
00:12:09,060 --> 00:12:11,820
So we can only speculate.
206
00:12:11,820 --> 00:12:14,940
Rabbi Cahn goes into all of this about Donald Trump.
207
00:12:14,940 --> 00:12:17,820
I just think that these things are interesting.
208
00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:21,420
Now some people just poo poo all that and say, well, it doesn't mean anything.
209
00:12:21,420 --> 00:12:27,980
I think that if we take that added to, we miss these interesting God moments where God
210
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:37,260
is kind of showing up and using just things that happen to show what is his will and purpose.
211
00:12:37,260 --> 00:12:44,460
I personally believe that God has raised up Donald Trump as a disruptor to disrupt the
212
00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:50,100
work of the enemy in which he's trying to take this country into socialism, into woke
213
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:53,860
ism as they call it, a lot of bad things.
214
00:12:53,860 --> 00:12:58,220
I talk about this with some regularity on my podcast.
215
00:12:58,220 --> 00:12:59,260
That's not my purpose today.
216
00:12:59,260 --> 00:13:07,580
My purpose today is to point out this very, very interesting YouTube video by Jonathan
217
00:13:07,580 --> 00:13:15,740
Cahn because I had already planned to talk and to show the video that I took at the restaurant
218
00:13:15,740 --> 00:13:18,020
because I knew that I would want to show it on my podcast.
219
00:13:18,020 --> 00:13:25,620
Now earlier in the podcast, I mentioned Butler, Pennsylvania, and when I was with Rabbi Cahn,
220
00:13:25,620 --> 00:13:26,740
he did not mention this.
221
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:30,860
We did talk about the other, but he thinks it is significant.
222
00:13:30,860 --> 00:13:33,380
Even the name of the place, Butler.
223
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:39,120
Now a butler we think of is someone who waits, has a little towel over his arm and a black
224
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,080
suit and kind of is a server.
225
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:48,180
The word going all the way back to the Latin and French is very close to the word bottle,
226
00:13:48,180 --> 00:13:49,980
bottle butler.
227
00:13:49,980 --> 00:13:59,340
And in Middle English, it would have been someone who served water like a cup bearer.
228
00:13:59,340 --> 00:14:04,980
And in the Old Testament, there were cup bears that were like secret service to the king
229
00:14:04,980 --> 00:14:08,320
because sometimes people wanted to assassinate the king.
230
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,920
And back then, it was often putting poison in their food.
231
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:19,660
So the cup bearer would drink the wine or whatever they were drinking and eat some of
232
00:14:19,660 --> 00:14:20,660
the food.
233
00:14:20,660 --> 00:14:25,540
And if the cup bearer didn't fall over dead, they knew it was safe for the king to do.
234
00:14:25,540 --> 00:14:29,220
Now I remember hearing that growing up in Sunday school.
235
00:14:29,220 --> 00:14:34,100
I had never associated it with what happened with Donald Trump.
236
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:35,700
But isn't that interesting?
237
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:43,340
The Butler, Pennsylvania, the cup bearer who saved the king from assassination.
238
00:14:43,340 --> 00:14:50,500
Now Rabbi Cahn says it ever so much more eloquently than I am, but I wanted to share this because
239
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:54,500
I knew that my viewers and listeners would find it very interesting.
240
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:59,940
I also want to encourage you to get the Dragon's Prophecy.
241
00:14:59,940 --> 00:15:02,540
This is actually a copy that just came off the press.
242
00:15:02,540 --> 00:15:09,140
It's not available to the public until release date, except for a few ministries like Sid,
243
00:15:09,140 --> 00:15:12,340
Ross, It's Supernatural.
244
00:15:12,340 --> 00:15:14,340
But there's a lot of interest in this book.
245
00:15:14,340 --> 00:15:16,060
This is a very important book.
246
00:15:16,060 --> 00:15:20,860
I also encourage you to watch that video by Jonathan Cahn and to share it.
247
00:15:20,860 --> 00:15:26,240
We need to get these videos to go viral because all this commentary on TV, and I'm sure you're
248
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:31,120
watching the different programs or looking at things on YouTube, with all these people
249
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,860
having an opinion about what's going on on the left and the right.
250
00:15:34,860 --> 00:15:39,180
One of the things that we do here at Charisma Media, and I mentioned this from time to time,
251
00:15:39,180 --> 00:15:44,060
but I want to really emphasize it today, is we look at it from the spiritual perspective.
252
00:15:44,060 --> 00:15:50,780
The spiritual world is more real than the physical world that we see and touch.
253
00:15:50,780 --> 00:15:55,620
But most people, in fact, non-believers, can't even understand it.
254
00:15:55,620 --> 00:15:58,100
And even a lot of believers don't really understand it.
255
00:15:58,100 --> 00:16:04,680
And I think this is why Jonathan Cahn's gift is just so important to the Christian community.
256
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:10,660
We call it the body of Christ, to help us to understand God's plans and purposes and
257
00:16:10,660 --> 00:16:15,380
how it applies in our lives and how we can navigate this.
258
00:16:15,380 --> 00:16:20,580
This book talks about some pretty bad things that are happening, but it gives hope because
259
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:23,260
you have to realize that God is still in control.
260
00:16:23,260 --> 00:16:28,340
No matter who's in the White House, no matter what wars are going on in the world, God is
261
00:16:28,340 --> 00:16:29,940
still in control.
262
00:16:29,940 --> 00:16:35,020
Now some of us believe that this is building up to the great battles that are discussed
263
00:16:35,020 --> 00:16:39,380
in the book of Revelation, and Jonathan Cahn goes into that in the book.
264
00:16:39,380 --> 00:16:40,380
I know.
265
00:16:40,380 --> 00:16:42,180
I've read his book twice.
266
00:16:42,180 --> 00:16:47,420
I read the very early version when he sent it into the editors, and I read it when it
267
00:16:47,420 --> 00:16:50,380
was finished and went to the printers.
268
00:16:50,380 --> 00:16:52,060
It is an excellent book.
269
00:16:52,060 --> 00:16:54,020
It's a fascinating read.
270
00:16:54,020 --> 00:16:57,340
Once you pick it up, it's the kind of book that you can't put down.
271
00:16:57,340 --> 00:17:02,420
I'll also just mention, since we're talking about Donald Trump leading up into the election,
272
00:17:02,420 --> 00:17:08,140
I'm going to pivot in my podcast, and I'm going to deal more with some of the books
273
00:17:08,140 --> 00:17:10,060
that I've written about Donald Trump.
274
00:17:10,060 --> 00:17:12,380
I've had the opportunity to interview him.
275
00:17:12,380 --> 00:17:16,380
I've written four different books about him.
276
00:17:16,380 --> 00:17:22,220
And there's an awful lot of material from a spiritual point of view that discuss what
277
00:17:22,220 --> 00:17:23,740
is God doing in America.
278
00:17:23,740 --> 00:17:28,140
And even though they were written a couple of years ago, a lot of these issues are still
279
00:17:28,140 --> 00:17:31,660
valid and they're good reads.
280
00:17:31,660 --> 00:17:32,660
You can get them.
281
00:17:32,660 --> 00:17:37,660
My secretary just showed me today that my numbers have really shot up on Amazon.com
282
00:17:37,660 --> 00:17:39,740
because people are just interested in this.
283
00:17:39,740 --> 00:17:43,660
And even some of the things that are a little bit passe, it's really interesting to read
284
00:17:43,660 --> 00:17:48,900
them from the perspective of being a couple of years later and trying to understand what
285
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:51,500
God is saying and what God is doing.
286
00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:53,700
So with that, I'll just wrap up this podcast.
287
00:17:53,700 --> 00:17:58,380
I'll encourage you to subscribe, especially if this resonates to you.

289
00:18:05,580 --> 00:18:07,300

And be sure to hit the little bell.
293
00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:17,580
My producer tells me that when you hit the little bell, and I've done that myself with
294
00:18:17,580 --> 00:18:23,740
different places that I subscribe, it lets you know when we're on live every Tuesday
295
00:18:23,740 --> 00:18:28,500

296
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:30,820
And be sure to share this with others.
297
00:18:30,820 --> 00:18:34,740
As we share these things, they can kind of go viral.
298
00:18:34,740 --> 00:18:38,020
And a lot of people need to see what Jonathan Cahn has to say.
299
00:18:38,020 --> 00:18:42,020
A lot of people are interested in the book, and I think they'll enjoy this perspective
300
00:18:42,020 --> 00:18:43,080
that I have today.
301
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,500
So thank you for helping us get out the word.
302
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:49,620
Tune in again for another episode of The Strang Report.
303
00:18:49,620 --> 00:19:12,300
Until then, God bless you.
