we are personal friends. depreciation. they don't need to be he's been in my home, he has criticized. we need to have a night to honor israel. spoken in my church, i my wife said you should go ask consider him one of the great the jewish people if they want leaders in the history of to do this. israel. the reason that christians support israel is because the i discovered such a thing as the federation. i talked to a man behind the bible supports israel. the bible presents israel as counter and i said i'd like to have a night to honor israel. i said i want to bring everyone in the city together and express christianity's appreciation to their people the sovereign state the god created. israel is the only state in the history of the world created by a sovereign act of and to the freedom of the world. >> when we come back i want god. god in genesis 12 made a you to tell us what happened. covenant with abraham, i will bless you, i will make your name great, i will bless your now, his world explodes with flavor. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts children with the jewish people, your children will bless the nf for all-day all-night protection. can you imagine 24-hours without heartburn? the sleep number 360 smart bed. prices of the season on can it help keep me asleep? absolutely, it senses your movements and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable.

live from america's news headquarters, senseless bloodshed mars the holiday spirit that happened at two places of religious worship. one happened this morning inside a church near fort worth texas. witnesses say a man opened fire with a shotgun or rifle before he was shot by two armed parishioners. two people were killed including the suspect. another victim is in critical condition. the motive still unknown. and what authorities are calling a case of domestic terrorism, five people were stabbed at the home of a rabbi near new york city. they had gathered to celebrate hanukkah when someone came in

and started stabbing them. he fled in a car but was soon captured. they are still looking into a motive. now back to life, liberty and levin. have a good night. >> so you meet with the high members of the jewish community in san antonio. you want the jews and the christians to get together. what happens. >> i told the man i'd like to have a night to honor jerusalem and i told them what that consisted of and he looked at me like i had a communicable disease. suddenly they were just shocked. he said will have to have a committee meeting.

what if this man is a friend and he actually intends to do what he said. so they agreed, we had a press conference the next day, the rabbi and i. when our picture came out in the paper the next morning, de shoot him before he has ever has that night to honor israel. we had the night to honor israel and the building was packed. as i have said, there is enough tension in the room to give up brass doorknob a headache. we had a marvelous night. our choir was there and they saying hebrew songs, the hebrew was crude, it probably had him turning over in his grave it was so bad but the jewish people appreciated the

effort. i gave a message about why christians should support israel and as the rabbi was giving the benediction security came up and said we have a bomb threat on this building. i said are you serious? is this credible? i said yes it came from both the police and the newspaper. the rabbi left, i walked up behind the podium and isolate is in gemini hate to end this wonderful night on the negative night but we have a bomb threat on this building and it's supposed to blow up in about three minutes. the christians went out of there like track stars on the run. they were gone. and the jewish people just looked at me and put their hands at me as if i would've said kosher hotdogs in the lobby for those who would like to stay.

mark: so they stayed. >> baystate and just started talking to each other. when i was walking off stage with my wife, it dawned on me, i said look, if these guys think they can stop us with these threats, were going to have a night to honor israel every year until everybody in america can go to one. so we went home and started planning to have a night to honor israel on television and then it began to spread all over the nation and they got bigger and better and then came the year 2006 when they started having people dancing in the streets in iran saying death to israel and i told him we need to put together a grassroots national organization that can be supportive of israel and the jewish people because real trouble looks like it's coming to the middle east. i invited 400 of america's leading evangelicals to come to cornerstone church and

after explained to them what it was i was trying to do and why it was the scriptural thing to do. all four of them lifted their hands and said were in. we went to washington four months later and there was 3600 people and we were just supposed to take each one ourselves and christians united for israel was born. we have now expanded to just over 7 million people, we are organized by regions, by state, by voting district, we can put 30,000 e-mails in the office of a senator or congressman who gets crosswise with the purpose of israel in 24 hours. mark: let me ask you a question. why is this important in your view, the united states of america, that israel be

sustained, that christians support that country, apart from the religious and biblical notion, why is this important for the united states of america. >> it's important to the united states of america because israel is the bastion of democracy in the middle east. they have surrounded by dictators that would like to destroy them. they are the people who are fighting terrorism in the trenches. iran is the head of the snake in the middle east. hezbollah and hamas are two massive terrorist organization camped on the border of israel, ready to attack israel at the nudge, the moment they get the green light, they are gone. hezbollah has 50000 soldiers battlefield tested. they have a hundred 50000 rockets that have been improved with guidance centers

so they are not just shooting holes but a specific target that will hit it. israel is in a very, very very dangerous neighborhood and, as a democracy that we have supported and is freedom that we do believe in and support, every american should be proud to support our only friend in the middle east. >> pastor, i listen to you, you are a moral man and you are a very decent man, i've just met you and i very much like you, and yet you and somebody like you will be portrayed in the modern media as something that you're not and i've seen it, not

specifically necessary to eat but entities like the new york times. then i think about the new york times, during the holocaust they did all they could to cover up, during the holocaust they were anopheles for the roosevelt and they didn't even learn till 1944 but the owners of that newspaper knew full well what was going on because they were trying to get their family out of germany. we have reached a point in our country where somebody like you, a very righteous man, a man who has spent his time and effort trying to get fax out, knowledge out, talking to millions of people, organizing

millions of people for a very just cause. you were supposed to. [inaudible] kind of out there on the fringes. they on the other hand are the rational spokesman for the modern society. when we return, i want to know what you think about that. we'll be right back. i'm your mother in law. and i like to question your every move. like this left turn. it's the next one. you always drive this slow?

how did you make someone i love? that must be why you're always so late. i do not speed. and that's saving me cash with drivewise. my son, he did say that you were the safe option. and that's the nicest thing you ever said to me. so get allstate. stop bossing. where good drivers save 40% for avoiding mayhem, like me. this is my son's favorite color, you should try it. [mayhem] you always drive like an old lady? [tina] you're an old lady.

mark: what i was saying at the end of the last segment was, the righteous individual, you live your life that way, preachers family, faith, reaches out to an entirely different religion to bring people together, trying to strengthen the united states, your home country, you've come under attack from time to time from the very forces that you condemn, of course. but you in many ways are the

opposite. like, i was talking about the new york times during the holocaust come about as a fact that is not reported much time as you might imagine, and yet your spiritual man, you're very kind man, i set up just met you, your decent man and the things i've read about you, gentlemen like you, pastors of large evangelical churches, is a complete mismatch. >> yes. mark: what do you make of that. >> the bible has a verse that i've never had difficulty fulfilling and that is beware when all men speak well of you. the bible says blessed are you when men rely on you and persecute you and say all men are evil against you. my name's sake, great is your reward in heaven, the fact is my assignment on earth is to speak the truth and i will answer to god for what i have said and what i refuse to say, to see evil and not call it

evil is evil. not to speak is to speak. not to act is to act, and god will judge me based on what i do and don't do based on what the word of god says i am to do. but i will assure you, when i started reaching out to the jewish people, forget about the new york times, there were christian pastors that were calling me a heretic and that's the worst of the worst. when i explained to them, when i was able to get face-to-face and explain what i was doing, i said look at the debt of gratitude we owe the jewish people. this is what st. paul was talking about in romans 15. the jewish people have given us the bible. they have given us the patriarchs. they have given us the old testament prophets. they have given us the first family of christianity. mary, joseph and jesus. i said just take jesus out of the equation and we've got

nothing. i said paul said that we have a duty to honor the jewish people for their contributions to us. and i said, and so that's exactly what i am doing. and henceforth, to understand that judaism does not need christianity to explain its existence. christianity cannot explain its existence without judaism. that's why st. paul said, in romans 11 in a chapter for christians but it is drafted in branches for the olive tree, do not boast against the root because the root supports you and the root of the christian olive tree is abraham, isaac and jacob. our roots are jewish to the core and we should remember that god has not cast away the jewish people. they are still the apple of his eye.

they are still the covenant people. there are still the cherished people. they are still the people who own the land of israel and in the final analysis, they are always going to receive the love of god because israel, according to the book of exodus is god's firstborn son. mark: when did you decide you wanted to be a pastor. >> when i was 18 years of age i had an appointment to go to west point military academy and my mother who was really the guiding light in my life, my mother went to seminary. she graduated and taught and she said we were sitting at the table and she said you know, if you would become a great military leader and lead

america in a great victory it would not be worth the value of winning a soul that is in christianity. one life that would be eternally changed without waiving the value of any heroic military you had ever accomplished, and that had a lasting impact on my thought. i went to seminary and the thought of being a pastor was not in my mind. when i finished seminary and got a bachelors degree and my masters degree from north texas state, i was invited by a couple and i did and i

agreed to help them for a while to get it started and 56 years later, i'm still there. >> i guess you're glad you did that. >> yes i am, indeed. mark: don't forget, virtually every weeknight you can watch me on levintv. we would love to have you sign up. give us a call at 844 levintv or go to blaze tb.com/mark. >> unfreedom of the press, new york times bestseller. do you know why i put that on there? they hate it, but you will love it. we'll be right back. apparently we come from a long line of haberdashers.

we chose eleanor. it was great-grandma's name. so we're in this little town near salerno and everyone has dad's eyebrows. help your family discover their unique story, with a gift from ancestry. at bass pro shops and cabela's. with savings of up to 50% on select men's and ladies' clothing; footwear; fishing and marine gear; and toys. use your gift cards and take advantage of huge savings-- in-store and online.

itreat them all as if, they are hot and energized. stay away from any downed wire, call 911 and call pg&e right after so we can both respond out and keep the public safe. >> do you like donald trump. >> i do. i like him personally. i've met him, i had supper with him and met him a couple times at the white house. mark: how's he doing. >> he's doing a great job in my opinion. >> and why do you think that. >> i think that our organization, christians united for israel was looking for someone in that group of

candidates that would be pro-israel. we were a little bit amazed that it was donald trump, but when he came out for israel and sent the message to our people at that time which were 5 million in number, i said this is the man were going to support because he is pro-israel so he has announced that jerusalem is the eternal capital of israel, he has moved the u.s. embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. he has given the. [inaudible] recognizing that it has been israel but he is sending the signal to the enemies of israel as a right to defend this land without anyone's approval. israel has the right to exist and the right to defend itself

and he has also been a friend to prime minister netanyahu. everything he has promised to do, he did it and that's a very unusual thing for a politician in our generation so yes, we think the president is doing a fabulous job with the congress that is fighting him every step of the way. mark: what about his appointment of judges. >> i am deeply appreciative of the conservative judges that are on the court, and i think the chance of having justice in america is determined by the justice in the supreme court and fulfilling all of the vacancies. there were some 200 some

judges that needed to be fulfilled and they were going very slow until recently and now the pace has picked up. if we can get judges that are right-thinking, conservative, constitutional judges this country will benefit for 40 or 50 years from the >> his position on life versus abortion has surprised me. it's been very consistent, it's been followed. >> we been very appreciative of that because, in the bible killing a baby in the womb with the mother is murder. we don't consider it a woman's right to murder a child, and

we as evangelicals oppose abortion and feel like anyone who does that will have to, if they do not repent of that sin will praise god in the judgment for having to account for that because that's a very, very serious evil. >> when we return, here's my question, how important is this next presidential election? we'll be right back.

with tough food, your dentures may slip and fall.

fixodent ultra-max hold gives you the strongest hold ever to lock your dentures. so now you can eat tough food without worry. fixodent and forget it. hi. maria ramirez! mom! maria! maria ramirez... mcdonald's is committing 150 million dollars in tuition assistance, education, and career advising programs... prof: maria ramirez mom and dad: maria ramirez!!! to help more employees achieve their dreams.

at chwe're a festive family.!!! we're a four-legged family. we're a get-up-and-go family. we're a ski family. we're all part of the chevy family. and as we kick off the new year, we'd like you to be a part of ours. because our chevy employee discount is still available to everyone. the chevy price you pay is what we pay. not a cent more. so happy new year, and welcome to the family. the chevy family! the chevy employee discount for everyone ends soon. how important is the selection. >> this next election may be more important than the first election because of the

dragging of the feet of this congress. the president has not been able to implement as much of this program as he would like to have implemented. if he is not elected, reelected and this next time, all of the good things that he has done, many of the good things he has done can be reversed in the socialist voice that is rising up in washington will take control, and we will lose contact with the america that we know. it is going, the democrats are going left and hard left away from anything the democratic party has held up for in times past. their way beyond the mainsprinmainstream of america. if this next election is not a reelection of president trump,

our country is going to go into a socialist tailspin. mark: they want the government take over all private healthcare and eliminate medicare even though they call it medicare for all. they want to eliminate ice, law-enforcement and our border. in any notion when it comes to immigration. they're constantly undermining the military and cutting the budget every time they get a chance or anytime their power. they want to point to the branch, particularly the supreme court activists who do not embrace our founding principle as a factual matter. in go down the list and i think to myself, this isn't a typical election as you point out. this is an election of capitalism versus socialism. it is the constitution versus the anti- constitution,

fateful judges versus activist judges, a secure national border or no national border, the most powerful military on the face of the earth or an eviscerated military. isn't that dire? am i right about this? >> spot on, exactly right. all of those things, nationalism versus socialism. that is the issue. you hear these people talking about all these free things they are proposing, who is going to pay for that? no one is saying that, saying we want to give you free this and free that is a declaration, but how are you going to pay for it? and there is where the people who work and pay taxes are going to be greatly burdened to support people who don't work and don't pay taxes and downhill we will go.

>> pastor, it's been a pleasure to meet you and a pleasure to talk to. >> thank you. it's been my pleasure. got best. >> see you next time on life, liberty and levin. tonight we are going to be
