Summary
Today on the @EricMetaxasShow, I sit down with Pastor @RealJackHibbs to talk about the alarming rise in antisemitism — and why we believe it’s not merely political, but spiritual. We trace modern Jew-hatred back to biblical prophecy, talk honestly about why Christians must stand with Israel even when Israel is not a perfect nation, and warn against the sloppy thinking that treats Jews as a monolith. We also look at evil through a Bonhoeffer lens and close with a direct challenge to the Church: stop shrinking back when the culture demands silence.

| 0:00.0 | Hey folks, this is the Eric Metaxus show. I'm Eric Metaxus. And my guest right now is somebody I feel privileged to call a friend, even though that's not true. He barely knows me. But publicly, who's going to stop me? I'm going to call him friend. He's certainly my brother. And he is the pastor of, you know, one of the greatest churches in America because he's the pastor. |
| 0:28.8 | And he's pointing people to Jesus. |
| 0:33.6 | This is my friend, Pastor Jack Hibbs. |
| 0:35.4 | Jack, just happy to see you. |
| 0:39.0 | Eric, when I heard that we were going to have a chance to be together, I could not wait. |

| 0:54.5 | Hey, what about separation of church and state? |
| 0:56.5 | Cut that out. |
| 0:57.2 | There is not. |
| 0:58.2 | What are you talking about? |
| 0:59.2 | We can't be political. |
| 1:00.8 | We're all about the kingdom. |
