How Gen Z Became Radicalized, and What to do About It, with Dr. Jeff Myers

Dr. Jeff Myers joins the podcast to share about his experience traveling to Israel during the conflict with Hamas and interviewing people on both sides. He shares the truth about what is going on, and how Christians can think biblically about this war, and how Gen Z has been radicalized with anti-Israel propaganda. He then discusses the role of theology and how that should inform the way Christians think about Israel as a nation.

When I see that only 9% of the self-proclaimed Christians hold a biblical world view, I know that narrow is the gate to salvation. If I try to evangelize, I'd get and have gotten viciously attacked, cancelled, and censored.😭 Maranatha!🙏

If you are getting your data from Barna, that number is down to 4% from 6% preCOVID. Worse only 37% of clergy have a biblical worldview. The numbers are scary. 9% is the number who might be saved. But that was when 6% had a biblical worldview.

The thing I don’t understand is the definition of antisemitism as “not supporting the state of Israel”. I would think the definition would be racism against the Jewish people, not support for a government…

[@johnvahl762]

But denying their right to have a state is also attacking the people who are the people of that nation. Especially if you read the Bible. The majority of the Bible from Joshua on through at least the Gospels are within the borders of modern Israel. The rest of the Bible happens within the regions we know as the Middle East and Southern Europe (Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Greece, and Italy)

[@amitamsalem]

Without a country the Jews are not safe, since forever we have been targeted around the world. The idea of living in Israel is having a safe space. Therefore, saying Jews shouldn’t have a safe space in their own country is antisemitism.

[@callienn]

Exercising nuance in specific policy is fine. Supporting positions that do not allow Israel to defend her borders and civilians, and positions that threaten Israel's existence are antisemitic.

I can't go to Japan and demand that they make it South African where I come from and that is what is happening with this conflict in Israel where they want the Jewish state to cease to exist. Germans, French, English, Irish have they own state. Why is it a problem for the Jew??

[@SpotterVideo]

New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below? Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary? What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. God is not now a "racist". He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son's blood at Calvary. There is no Plan B of salvation based on race in the New Testament. The Apostle Paul warned against using "genealogies" in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4 and Titus 3:9. Go to Gaza City and spend some time with our Christian Brothers and Sisters in Christ, if you want to understand what it means to be threatened. Why were two unarmed Christian women shot by Israeli snipers while going to the toilet at their church in Gaza? Why were Christians killed while they were taking shelter at their 800-year-old church in Gaza City, when an IDF bomb hit beside their church? How many of their homes have been turned to rubble? How would you feel if armed drones were constantly flying overhead, while you are without food? Why was Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu-Akieh shot by the IDF before October 7th? These people were not killed by Hamas. Why have these people been ignored by most Christians in the U.S.? Are the Christians being killed in Gaza “Semites”?

[@kevinjames3958]

[@americandropbear5081]

Why did Hamas take hostages in the first place?

[@imbecilicGenius-hn3jo]

​@@americandropbear5081 because this is the longest religious war in all of history. Hamas' feelings towards Israel and religious Israels feelings towards Palestinians are equal. However if Israel behaves towards Palestinians the way that Hamas behaves towards Israel then they lose western support. It is the west that is protecting and arming Israel and they dare not risk losing that support so they are more careful because the entire middle east will destroy them the second that the west disowns them. The goal is cleanse the land of infidels, the problem of course is that infidels is a reletive term.

"To find out who rules over you look at who you cannot criticize."

[@dorvinion]

30:30 The idea that 50% of casualties are combatants seems to be a very far fetched claim unless one simply assumes that all males who are teenage or older are combatants. The primary causes of death by direct violence are bombs and artillery and bombs are notoriously indiscriminate. Yes you may hit a legitimate combat target but you also will hit the places around the target as well that means you hit a lot of not combatants since Gaza is basically one of the most population dense places in the world. Another reason to question just how much care IDF is giving to avoiding civilian casualties is the number of aid workers killed - over 200 hundred killed(most of them UNRWA). Several organizations have pulled their people out because of it. Aid workers coordinate their movements with IDF - tell them where they are, where they are going, how they plan to get from A to B, what they are driving, and so on. If they are really being very meticulous in their targeting why so many attacks on aid workers?

[@markbowman2890]

Could you give more detail about the sources of your data. It would be very hard to gather such data unless we personally visit the area. The other option is to use media services but these are definitely polarised. Getting an unbiased view is very difficult. One thing does remain as strong evidence. I am referring to the attack on Israeli lands, the attack that started this off. Somehow all of this has been forgotten in the same way that a number of other attacks made upon the people living in Israel. Trying to avoid that discussion by refocussing on the alleged IDF actions indicates a problem with looking at all the evidence.

[@BlueGiantMedia]

They are not assuming based on age and sex, but on who is actively combatting them. As far as the bombs go we have video evidence of how accurate their bombs are. I saw a video of men with rocket launchers being pulled on a cart behind a donkey. The bomb hit the cart and vaporized the three men and the donkey just walked away with half a cart behind it. They have also demonstrated the ability to drop a bomb on a building and only hit one room in one floor with the delayed explosion.

[@Giljrnuno]

@@BlueGiantMediawhile they have demonstrated that ability, they also demonstrated how they could level entire residential buildings, your point means nothing if they are only aiming for precision, they’re not

[@BlueGiantMedia]

@@Giljrnuno The fact that buildings were destroyed proves nothing. The IDF gives ample advanced warning and people get out. Hamas chooses to set up weapons caches and bases of operation in these civilian locations hoping to cause collateral damage and garner support from people like you. Hamas also steals the food and medical aid and literally barricades people in so they can die as martyrs. In Islam the only way to be certain you go to heaven is to be a martyr, and martyrs also help with public support. Hamas is the cause of the suffering of Gazans. They can surrender any second now and Gazans will be better off.

[@callienn]

Israeli viewer. Thank you so much for this interview Alisa and Dr. Jeff. Of all the points Dr. Jeff made I want to affirm what he said about how the IDF identifies Hamas, as those who shoot at them. This is so true and its not lost on the population, moms in particular, that we have a higher fatality rate in the IDF because of this. I appreciate so much that he just outrightly told everyone here. I can't praise this interview enough.

[@Angie-lw8vl]

I usually agree with your concerns, but you are labeling an issue antisemitism when it's really about an apartheid and human rights. I was raised Catholic, then Born Again in college. I learned the Baptist teaching for years, specifically dispensationalism. I've learned since from good preachers that the New Covenant theology is biblical. It does teach that Jews were God's chosen people in the old testament/ covenant. But when Jesus came, died and resurrected he taught his apostles that the chosen people were the Christians, that is anyone who trusted Jesus as savior. It says in the Bible that the NT there is no difference between Jew or Gentile. So how can Jews be a chosen people any longer. If they trust Jesus, then they are part of the royal priesthood. Jesus said in the NT that he would take away the nation from the Jews and give it to a people producing fruit. That would be Christians, the new Israel and Jews and any race can be a part of the faith promise of salvation as Abraham was in Genesis. The reason evangelicals think antisemitism is a thing, is because they don't want to take their focus off of the modern state of Israel and focus on Jesus the NT Israel of God. Also thousands of Jews and Holocaust survivors don't support the modern state of Israel. They say it is zionism which does not even believe in God. AIPAC American Israel Public Affairs Committee has all to do with the promotion of Israel in this country. The Congress is paid off, except for some. Thomas Massie is an admirable Republican representative who doesn't support Israel and has no AIPAC buddy. You really need to research and study your Bible and not listen to the popular evangelical and MSM narrative. I didn't realize all this til I read the Bible just as Jesus Christ words were on the page. Not with a bias Israel slant. Scofield and Darby twisted theology with their dispensational false teaching. All the faithful preachers interpreted the Bible up til the 1800 century as the new covenant theology and didn't focus on a modern Israel.

[@blusky7]

You are as biased as everyone else you accused to be biased. You realise that, right? You are biased against Israel and it’s as bad as the other party, if you will. Read also your Bible. Jesus ever cried for Jerusalem representing the Israelites. He loved them the same from time immemorial until today. Unlike humans, God can love people the same while having His choosing. God has chosen you to do things that you do. I don’t see any contradiction in God’s word. But you did

​@@blusky7 not antisemitism. Tearing down the idol is not nessecarily a hatred of what the idol represents but rather the love of the idol over God. Luke 14:7-24 Mathew 3 :7-12 Hebrews 11 Jonah 3 Galatians 3 Romans 4:1-18 Gen 3:14-15 Scripture is clear, from the beggining we are saved by faith. Jesus was prophesied in Genesis. Romans 11:25-26 does not mean that all of Israel will be saved in the end. Read the whole chapter more clearly and plainly and its meaning is much simpler. God has not abandoned or forgotten Israel nor any covenant, the stubborness of Isrsel has worked unto thier nation a stubborness for generations that will be lifted just before the day of judgement. There is no need to worship any nation, rather always pray for thier repentance. This is what saddens me, christians going to Israel for vacations rather than mission trips as if they are in the land of saints when in reality they are surrounded by the lost.

I remember being really confused and shocked at how childish it was to use that tactic, and befuddled why the Democrat didn't have a legitimate response that was based in logic.

Now let's be honest, what would happen to the Jews if all barriers were removed and Gazans repopulated the current state of Israel? We don't have to guess. They say they want the river to the see, proclaim the annihilation of the Jews, and have been committing genocide against Jews in the surrounding countries.

I think the argument Alisa makes applies in the same way to this second case.

Semites were the occupants of Palestinian area - which included Jews, Arabs, Christians. They used to get on and lived together. Gaza was also a mix, which included Christians.

When it one day clicked about who the apostle Paul was and what he taught which is the revelation from God to Paul for the age of grace we found a Pauline pastor who was on track to have the largest southern Baptist church in Texas until he discovered Pauline and resigned because they rejected what Paul wrote. We still love our Christian, catholic and jewsish brothers and sisters but had to choose to become a Pauline. Our pastor Dr. Randy white in Taos is very involved with the same issues that are being talked about here on this channel. We have to bring awareness to what is and has happened to our world and our Judas Christian way of life. Keep up the good fight dear lady.

All Christians should, but the majority of Gen Z are probably not doing it for strictly Biblical reasons. The church today is woefully ignorant of both history and the Bible itself, that's why this stuff sells.

I had to downvote this. I think you are twisting the facts. It isn't anti-semitism, it's standing against the murder of young Palestinian children. So you either advocate for the murder of Palestinian children or you deny that it's happening. Both of it is false.

[@springray2323]

They only briefly touch on eschatology but I do think there’s a generational clash between older generations of Christians and younger generations when it comes to dispensationalism and the support of Israel. This video mainly concentrates on liberals not supporting Israel but this is also coming from many younger conservative Christians as well who tend to look down upon dispensationalism and who tend to be more post millennial in their eschatology. I don’t think Alisa and her guest quite understand this generational clash. They talk about social media apps like TikTok being antisemitic from a liberal standpoint but if you go on X/Twitter you can see some pretty terrible antisemitism from the other side. I’ve actually never seen so much antisemitism as I have seen on X/Twitter.

[@impalaman9707]

The people you're describing are actually the ones that concern me the most. I expect this behavior out of secular liberals who don't know the bible and don't really care. but a careful reading of the Word of God from Genesis to Revelation has actually caused me to love and respect the Jewish people more--not less.

That's part of the indoctrination. Our God is NOT a god of confusion. Satan is & he is the one who started saying that the Jews aren't really Jews. What does it matter, even if they weren't? Does that make it ok to wipe out a whole ethnic group of people?! 🤔 Get outta here with that 'black hebrew israelite' bs!

[@kevinjames3958]

What is a semite?

[@carriestout6422]

They are Semitic. I am one percent Jewish. I found out by my DNA, and I am one percent Semitic. This means I come from Shem. Jews come from Shem, as well as many other Semitic peoples. We all come from either Shem, Ham, or Japeth and their wives. I'm sick of Jewish people being treated so harshly. Even before I found out about how I'm part Jewish. Jesus is Jewish. Remember this if you call yourself a Christian. If you are oppressing Jews, you are oppressing Christ's race. He might have had disagreements with them, but in the end many will return to Him and accept Him as their Messiah. He does not want Christians hurting any people group, and even more so if they are Jewish!

[@benjaminhoward4630]

They are partially, but the true irony concerning the situation is that from a hereditary and linguistic perspective they are less semitic than many other people groups in the region, especially the Palestinians. I don't wish harm to any of them, but this becomes more of a Rightwing version of the Black Lives Matter movement having such a problem with the Biblical All Lives Matter response. Regardless of nation states and national borders, more care must be insisted upon that protects non-combatants.

Those who speak a septic language. Yiddish is not Semitic language. You do know right? Those claiming to be Jews in modern day Faux Israel are not speaking Hebrew. They speak European Askenazi yiddish.

Neither did Jesus. He spoke Aramaic. Big deal.

[@GraniteChief369]

Actually they speak a resurrected form of Hebrew in the modern state of Israel.

[@eurekahope5310]

You have shown yourself to be demonstrably mistaken. The average Israeli teen could read and understand the Old Testament because modern Hebrew was created from biblical Hebrew. Yiddish is not a primary language spoken in Israel.

[@kevinjames3958]

You're missing the point. Jesus could trace lineage to the tribe of Judah. These fake Hebrews cannot. Everything they are is fake. And you bow at their feet like they hold God's timeline in their hands.

Don't forget the prophets, genius - And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Jeremiah 11:9 ​ ​Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him. And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem. Daniel 9:11-12 Hear this word which I take up against you, a lamentation, O house of Israel. Amos 5:1 Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the well-favored harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts. Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will show the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame. And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and will set thee as a gazingstock. Nahum 3:4-6 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations. And I will do in thee that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations. Ezekiel 5:8 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth. Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice. Daniel 9:13-14 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them? Exodus 32:21 Yet many years didst thou forbear them, and testified against them by thy spirit in thy prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the people of the lands. Nehemiah 9:30 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, they turn aside the poor in the gate. Amos 5:12 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the Lord. Zechariah 1:4 For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed her. Lamentations 4:6 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. Isaiah 1:4-5 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the Lord, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin. Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity. They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity. Micah 3:8-10 And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, unto this very day. For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shat say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God. And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briars and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, not be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house. And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious. Ezekiel 2:3-7 We have sinned, and committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments: Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. Daniel 9:5 Hear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying, You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Amos 3:1-2 O Israel, return unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. Hosea 14:1 The Lord hath been sore displeased with your fathers. Zechariah 1:2 ​ But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us. Lamentations 5:22 Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly. Nehemiah 9:33

You want a communist government, and to be part of the party. You will only be the new oppressor that you object to Israel or American whites as being now.

Great conversation overall and so important to talk about! I do just want to add regarding the comment that American soldiers couldn’t shoot unless shot at, is actually true and very real. I’m a trauma therapist for Veterans and that’s actually something that really bothers them about their deployments; when the rules of engagement changed and they couldn’t do anything unless directly hit essentially. It’s a little more nuanced than I can put in this comment, but it is a real thing
