0:00.0	Welcome to Mortification of Spin, a casual conversation about things that count with Carl Truman and Todd Pruitt, a podcast of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals. Let's join this week's conversation. I'm Well, welcome to Mortification of Spin.
0:53.0	My name is Todd Pruitt, and I'm joined as always by my friend
0:55.9	Carl Truman. I'm a pastor in the PCA, Covenant Presbyterian Church in Harrisonburg, Virginia.
1:02.6	Carl, of course, is a professor at Grove City College in Western Pennsylvania, currently
1:08.3	doing a year in Notre Dame. And I do want our listeners to know that
1:13.3	he is currently wearing a Notre Dame vest right now. Is there anything at all we need to be
1:21.9	concerned about? No, no. These are just the people who've paid half my salary for the last year.
1:28.9	I get it, you know. And I mean, it's a sharp vest. I'd wear the thing, you know. You do have a lot

2:20.1	heightened attention these days. And that is talk a little bit about Jews and Israel, talk a little
2:29.3	bit about the rise of anti-Semitism, but also talk about what scripture seems to indicate about
2:39.1	whether or not there is a future for Jews.
2:44.3	And I want to get into that in just a little bit.
2:46.4	But first of all, Carl, one of the things you and I, I mean, we've talked about our concerns
