The

The Boy, we've got a good one for you today called the muddled up Middle East.

Now, before I get into this, because we're going to go all over the

board with it, so to speak, I want you to understand something about our ministry. Our ministry has

supported the nation of Israel, the Jewish people. Our ministry has supported the Arab Christians,

especially during COVID, and we're still helping the Arab Christians in Bethlehem at times in Nazareth.

We've also been able to assist Muslim families who live there with the Jewish people, some of them who have been suffering some needs because of COVID and medical issues. So I am a person doing the works of God.

Jesus didn't say, check how old they are, check their skin color, check what belief they are.

He said, take care of the poor, take care of the needy, and love people. That's what we do.

So when I say the muddled up Middle East, I think you're going to see and understand why I have used that particular title. Now,

what nations are considered the Middle East today? Well, you know, we talk about the East,

we talk about China, India, Pakistan, etc. But the Middle East is the country right before you get to those lands as you're

going from west to east. It is predominantly what we call the Arab world. From a religious

perspective, they are predominantly Muslim, and it also includes the Jewish land of Israel.

Here's a list, and probably will show you a map of this. North Africa, Egypt, Libya,

Sudan, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states, which include,

for example, Yemen, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, also Turkey and Afghanistan. All of

these countries that you're looking at here are a

part of the Middle East. Now the question a lot of people ask me, they said, Perry, why is there so

much trouble in that part of the world? It just seems like for many years, if you want to go back

to the time of the fighting between the Crusades, the Muslims, you want to go back to the Byzantine era, you want to go back to the Roman time.

What is the deal with what we call the Middle East? It's been a hot spot for 6,000 years.
