Tunnel Vision
The “Chunnel,” an underground tunnel connected England with France, opened in 1994. The total time it takes to go from one point to another is about 35 minutes.
I thought about this week as I considered the fact that, in my view, we are traveling through a Tunnel of Apostasy. We’re probably in the middle of that horrific trip, but it feels like it’s taking 35 years.
I also just spent 90 minutes of my life listening to and transcribing Tucker Carlson’s latest monstrous rant against Israel in his podcast. The man who has about 18 million followers on X has perhaps the biggest platform in the world.
Carlson is a monster. A clever communicator who has made his living with words for decades, Tucker Carlson has emerged in the last year as the biggest anti-Israel voice anywhere. He routinely platforms Qatar, Venezuela, Russia, and a host of other bad actors. One year go, during the campaign for president, he and some of his friends masked all this. They pretended even to support the Jewish state or at least did not breathe a public word about their Jew-hatred. Now Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, Candace Owens, and Steve Bannon are leading the wolfpack in attacking Israel. I suspect what happened is that they fooled voters, by being true-blue “conservatives,” until Trump’s victory was secured.
Then, in order to advance a pure “America-First” agenda, they reverted to what people like Charles Lindbergh were doing a century ago: pushing isolationism and one the side, demonizing the Jews.
Carlson’s latest screed covered a lot of ground. From pimping for Qatar, to dipping his toe into theological waters, he made a very interesting statement early on:
“There’s no reason for it to stay that way forever.”
He was referring to Israel as “Our Closest Ally.”
Now think about that. He was unwittingly affirming one promise about Israel: at the end of the age, the Jewish state will be totally friendless. A painful notion for many of us, it nevertheless will come true, because God told us it will.
“All your lovers have forgotten you; they no longer seek you…” (Jeremiah 30:14)
How we ask, could it be possible that the United States, so long a haven for Jews, would turn away from Israel? It seemed impossible. Now not so impossible, and those of us living through this, hurtling through that Tunnel, are aghast. It seems this tsunami of Jew-hate has come out of nowhere, but it has been planned by the enemy for a very long time.
Now it is dressed-up as America-First. “Why are we sending aid to Israel?” This is the first of many questions designed to indoctrinate people who have no clue about what the Bible says about Israel or the Jewish people. They know nothing of history and react emotionally to diatribes against Benjamin Netanyahu and the IDF.
In fact, Carlson really went off on Netanyahu.
“God demands that you support the government of Benjamin Netanyahu? Now who would be vulgar and dumb and reckless enough to say something like that?”
Except that nowhere in Scripture does God “demand” that we support the government of Benjamin Netanyahu. This is a classic red-herring that hacks like Carlson peddle. I plan to write about this more on my Patreon site and other platforms. My own media footprint is dwarfed by Carlson & Friends, but that’s no excuse not to enter the fight. As I’ve said many times, I will not abandon Israel, and because of that, I won’t have to try and explain to the Creator of the Universe, a Jew, why I justified hating His People.
Carlson is very aware that he is inciting division among Christians over this issue. He happily does that.
More on this later, but just remember: we are moving through history, given a front-row seat by the Lord of History for the great end-times prophecies being fulfilled. What a thrill, honestly.
The Tunnel is dark right now, but the Dawn is coming.
Forever.
