Below, I have shared a video that is so full of lies, I felt it needed to be addressed. It is from a little known podcast called “SGT Report”. After searching to learn more about it, I learned this podcast is ran by a few different people. Apparently the video below is hosted by someone named Shawn, who seemed to mostly conceals his identity. I had to research to find out who he is, after hearing the guest call him only by his first name. I have to assume it is Shawn Ryan, a former Navy SEAL and CIA operative, that I learned periodically hosts the “SGT Report”.
In this video, he is interviewing a “whistle-blower” from the “Fast and Furious” debacle by the name of Jeffrey Prather. You remember “Fast and Furious” which took place in the Obama era when the government sold guns to Mexican cartels in hopes that they would later be tracked to high-ranking cartel members and assist in their captures…at least that’s the claim.
Now I didn’t follow Prather, or his whistle-blowing story; and for this post I didn’t take the time to research what, or why exactly he blew the whistle. He may have been right back then, but he most certainly is not right now. This video and this message is the only thing I want to address for now; because what he claims is actually very troubling...
I hate to even give any attention to this video, because in truth, it thus far doesn’t have that many views that we should worry. Furthermore, the pod-caster, as well as the guest, don't seem to be that well known. So why should we help them get more attention? But the truth of the matter, this narrative is exactly the same propaganda, more well known “influencers” like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, (as well as the left) are spewing, so I do feel it needs to be addressed. Lies won’t die with silence; they will spread. And both Carlson and Owens have a huge audience. While the accusations might not be exactly the same, this narrative is spreading like wildfire.
I won’t take time to address all of what Prather carries on about in this video. Instead, I will focus mostly on the Biblical and not delve into the political commentary and misstatements that he makes. It is muddled and confusing, as he states what he thinks will be viewed as “facts”, when it is really just old lying rhetoric from those that hate the government and fail to see any good in America. These things have been professed by a certain group for a very long time, without actual proof. The biggest one and most serious, in my view, is that Israel, and/or our government were the ones behind 9/11. The conspiracies are many with multiple levels; but they all carry pretty much the same message. I am not even going to attempt to refute the lying narratives. Just note, that I believe that one of these conspiracies was started by Alex Jones soon after 9/11 took place and while Jones was still a Democrat, if I have my timing correct. Just blame anyone other than a terrorist, seems to be their MO. In my opinion, Jones is a liar and will say anything in order to build an audience...including that Sandy Hook was fake. In the aftermath, he will go the direction the wind takes him.
But for starters in this video, this guy, Jeffrey Prather, uses all the lingo of the left, instead of the preferred, conservative language. For example: He uses “Palestine” as opposed to Gaza; “Wailing Wall” a derogatory term, as opposed to the “Western Wall”. And “West Bank” the media preferred term instead of the Israeli truth – Judea and Samaria. Basically in my opinion, the language he uses should tell us everything we need to know about Jeffrey Prather - he hates Israel.

Prather’s religious beliefs are apparently the inaccurate, even heretical belief of "Replacement Theology" or "Supersessionism". Instead, he tells us the long held Christian belief of dispensationalism is what is heresy. Nope! What he calls heresy, is actually Biblical. What he is spewing is heresy. For those unaware, “Replacement Theology” is the belief that the church has replaced Israel in all the promises given from God. I don't fault him for having the faith beliefs he holds, but I am just not certain it's as much about faith, as it is a means to deride Israel.
As the foundation of his narrative, Prather takes the "Parable of the Vineyard" out of context (without giving chapter and verse, I might add) and ignores Romans 11 where Paul assures us that God's covenants are forever! The Church has not replaced Israel, but we (the Church) are to provoke the Jew to jealousy, so that they will one day know Jesus is the Messiah they have been awaiting. In 11:1-2 Paul says: "Hath God cast away his people? I say, God forbid." You can take that to the bank! Prather thinks we won’t research any of that. Either he doesn’t know chapter and verse, or he doesn’t want us to read it for ourselves and know the truth of what it really means.
Then Prather tries to say that “Dispensationalism” has only been around since the Scofield Bible was published in 1909, which is a lie often repeated by Supersessionists. Darby lived in the 1800’s and Supersessionists love to tell us that no one believed in the dispensations until Darby came on the scene promoting what is “error”, in their view. And thereafter, C. I. Scofield with his Scofield edition of the Bible promoted Darby’s beliefs. But theologians much older than those two, believed in Dispensationalism. Dispensationalism is merely the belief that God deals with us through the generations and dispensations. Sadly, Supersessionists can some how get Israel removed from any prevalence in history, by denying the dispensations.
Here is an AI Overview of Dispensationalism. It is mostly correct, save the remark that God relates to humanity differently through time. I am not sure saying God deals with us differently is accurate. Dispensationalists believe God is the same yesterday, today and forever...which is Scripture – Hebrews 13:8. In any case, how He deals with us, is not as important as the fact that we are in the Church age – the age of Grace. Here is the AI version, which is actually a very good definition:
Dispensationalism is a Protestant theological system that interprets [B]iblical history as a series of distinct periods, or "dispensations," during which God relates to humanity differently. Key features include a literal interpretation of the Bible, a firm distinction between Israel and the Church, and a belief in separate divine plans and destinies for each. It is most prominent in American Evangelicalism and emphasizes a future earthly kingdom for ethnic Israel.
Even well-known preacher J. C. Ryle (1860 -1900) talked about Israel as God’s chosen people. And though today they call him a “Calvinist”, he is actually not a Calvinist by how we define them today. Ryle certainly didn’t preach what has come to be known in many circles as “cheap grace”.
Also, as far back as the late 1600’s – early 1700’s, well-known theologian, Matthew Henry held to the fact that Jews are God’s chosen people. He said this about Israel:
“The covenant God made with Abraham, was not done away by the giving the law to Moses. The covenant was made with Abraham and his Seed. It is still in force; Christ abideth for ever in his person, and in his spiritual seed, those who are his by faith.”
Matthew Henry believed Israel’s rejection was not final, expecting a future conversion of the Jews, which that is what is Biblical. He saw Israel as a covenant people and the church as continuity with Israel. We are grafted into Israel; not the other way around.
So the fact that dispensationalism didn’t begin until Darby, Scofield and the Scofield Bible is flat-out wrong, believed by those who adhere to Replacement Theology – that the Church replaced Israel. The Bible in correct context and with full counsel teaches dispensationalism. Why do they continue to repeat the church replaced Israel when it is so easily refuted. In Romans 11:25, Paul informs us:
For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
My goodness, how much more plain can it get?! If God is not going to keep covenant with the Jews, how can we believe he will keep His promises to us?
One can't just repeat the belief that people propagate in order to disprove dispensationalism i.e. that it “started with John Nelson Darby and then backed up by C. I. Scofield”. They are just repeating the argument – circular reasoning. That does not provide proof that dispensationalism didn’t exist before their writings. The truth is, many theologians like Matthew Henry, in the late 1600's, believed in dispensationalism. So no, it didn't start with Darby in the 19th century.
Jeffrey Prather tries to tell us the Jews lost their standing because the Jews killed Jesus! For one, this totally ignores the message of the Gospel...that Jesus willingly laid down His life for us; and that it was all God’s plan!!! But even aside from that, historically and Biblically we all know it was the Romans that were in charge and killed Jesus. Though some Jews of the time pressured Pilate to take the life of Jesus, it was the Roman soldiers and Pilate that carried out the act. Why don’t they ever mention that??? The truth is according to the Bible and everything we need to know: every. single. one. of. us! nailed Jesus to the cross because of our sin. And He died for each of us...including the Jew. What kind of pastor (I think he claims to be) is Prather to not even mention that?!!!
Early on, they tell us they have better soundbites to demonstrate what they want us to believe. Oh, really? Then why didn’t they use them. I think they probably didn’t use them, because they don’t really have them! They use something obscure, thinking we won’t see through it and instead just believe them in what they are trying to impart. No, thank you. There is no clarity in anything they tried to convince us to believe. A lot of it is simply regurgitated conspiracy theories decades old, that have never been proven as fact. They tell us that Israel is escalating the violence in order to bring about a larger, greater Israel. The truth is, PM Netanyahu has said multiple times they do not want to control Gaza. They just want it free of Hamas.
Prather uses a video from accused, anti-Semite, Piers Morgan with a virulent guest by the name of Gideon Levi to convince us of his stance. He uses a false premise to get us to believe the foundation he wants to set. Levi spews venom when he states we should not be concerned with 20 Israeli hostages, when “Israeli’s are killing 20 people every 6 minutes/6 hours” since October 7th. Methinks that is probably the stats of Hamas and not at all real.
As well, they claim that 9/11 was to prepare us for this very moment at the behest of Bibi Netanyahu… Come on!! Prather almost tries to convince us that Netanyahu is the anti-Christ. But the anti-Christ is NOT a Jew. The anti-Christ comes out of Rome, with the False Prophet (a religious figure, not a politician) being a Jew. As well, it seems, as I said earlier, the 9/11 Truther lie was started by Alex Jones; at least he takes claim for it. I researched it when it first happened, because I started seeing signs around our cities that claimed “America was behind 9/11” and “Bush knew”. Right. Let’s just take the blame entirely off of the terrorists and blame America. (Please note sarcasm!)
These guys repeat the lie of those who hate Israel which is that the IDF had a part in the attack from Hamas, and that “Netanyahu knew” (same as “Bush knew”, I guess. Same rhetoric, new game.) But that Bibi knew of this plan has already been refuted many times! The truth is, there was a mistake that was made in Israel allowing Gazans to come across the border on “work releases”. This out of the goodness of Israel’s heart and believing Gazans could be trusted. Yes, I said Gazans, not just Hamas. Instead, they were plotting and planning the attack. The border was NOT as secure as Prather claims. And Israel found out they can not trust Gazans.
They want us to believe there was a stand down order and a cover up for what really happened on 10/7/23. This is the lie that was disseminated by people like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, who it seems have been after Israel since the attack on Israel. And by the way, Charlie Kirk even got in on the Bibi knew narrative in the beginning. He has since been trying to make amends by trying to convince us he loves Israel. The way I see it, Tucker was simply a coward about the lie and let his many guests state the propaganda first. Apparently, he finally felt he was in a position to join them with more than just a silent nod of the head.
More lies disseminated are the decades old trope that “AIPAC is buying Congress”, when in fact, AIPAC only contributes 5% of PAC funds! And within the other 95% are also funds from Muslim nations and Muslim entities along with a host of others, of course. But anyone can see 5% is not going to have that much influence. The real influence, in fact, comes from a Christian belief (and this is the group they know they have to cater to, because we vote!!) that we are to support Israel. And this was a belief Congress adhered to long before Israel was reborn a nation in 1948.
Prather repeats the well-known lie that at least half of Congress has duel citizenship with Israel, which of course is absolutely ridiculous! It has been verified from other sources that there are very few members with dual citizenship in this Congress.
Prather and/or the podcast according to the "SGT Report" website has ties to Clay Clark (Thrive Time) who along with Mikki Willis and his movie making organization “Elevate” were behind the ridiculous scare tactics regarding the COVID vaccine being snake venom and all the crazy videos that were going on when we were all isolated with not much to do. They took advantage of that by producing lies and fear-mongering at a time many Americans were very afraid of that virus.
In this interview, they quote Michael Flynn, but honestly Flynn has direct ties to QAnon and President Trump quit associating with him for some reason...though he didn’t state why publicly; out of respect, I believe, for those who support him and for Flynn’s position in the military. I know Flynn is right about some things, but I feel like I do not trust him due to the time QAnon was spreading their Q drops. He had their logo on his media page. Flynn’s opinion matters little to me.
Finally, they are regurgitating Hamas’s false statistics regarding deaths, even saying Israel is committing genocide. That has been proven categorically false, which is why the media is now mostly silent on the issue, instead of blasting it from the airwaves as they did initially.
We are told in Scripture that there will be scoffers in the end times, and we are most certainly seeing that in regard to the nation of Israel. In fact, the nation of Israel is the only reason this argument over dispensationalism has risen its ugly head, these days. Over and over and over, everybody's talking about it. The fact is, the goal is to turn America against Israel. There biggest job is to target and change the minds of Christians, because we have long held the belief that we are to support Israel. In order to get us to turn against Israel, the contrarians need to deny dispensationalism and prove it false. And that's the only reason that this topic is at the forefront so often today.
And because Darby and Scofield *did* promote dispensationalism, it gives people a reason to say that that's when it started. But that is not when it started. It's been a belief from the beginning of Christianity. It is written in the Word of God. And a thorough study, within context, reveals that. We wouldn't even be talking about it, today, if it wasn't for the turn we are seeing politically against Israel.
Everything Jesus said in the New Testament was spoken to the Jews. It is for us in future, of course, too. But it was the Jew that preserved the Scriptures for us. When Jesus lived, there was no such thing as Christianity. That came after His death. The church came to fruition in Acts 2. Before that, Jesus was speaking to the Jew, in the very land God gave to Abraham and his seed.
In Luke 21:24, Jesus foretold that the Jewish people would be led captive, and Jerusalem would be "trodden down" by Gentiles until the “times of the Gentiles are fulfilled," That demonstrates a time that will come to an end, (the Church age) and His attention will be on the Jew once again. In complete context of scripture, and the full counsel of the Word of God, it shows He is telling us of Israel's place in future events and He wanted us to know and understand that.
Jesus also spoke of a future Messianic kingdom in the land of Israel. There really is no reason for the Bible to tell us Jesus is of the line of David if it wasn't to bring the Jew in to His Kingdom – it would be a fulfillment of prophecy that they understood; the Messiah they were long awaiting needs to be a Jew. In other words why does the Bible place such importance on the fact that Jesus is from the Davidic line if God's just going to do away with Israel? That Jesus was from the line of David; the tribe of Judah is expressly written for the Jew – indeed for the time that they will receive Him as their Messiah. If it was only about us, the Christian, we wouldn't even need to know that Jesus is a Jewish Savior. So no, God is most certainly not done with Israel.
Jesus also wept over Jerusalem out of His great love for them. The importance of Israel and the Jews is written throughout the New Testament as well as the Old Testament. It has to be that way.
Israel is our time clock, it's a witnessing tool to bring people into the Kingdom by enabling us to see prophecy. Israel is once again a nation to let us know the end is near, exactly as the Bible tells us. And it's also the land where Jesus returns. So yes it matters. Every word of the Bible points to Jesus and Israel is a part of bringing about that understanding we all need to know. He will return there just as He said.
"There will be scoffers in the last days." "Every Nation will turn against Israel." That's what we're seeing. And this current argument about dispensationalism is only helping those that hate Israel. They are repeating the inaccurate belief that requires an allegorical belief of Scripture as opposed to literal. The naysayers want us to believe that dispensationalism only began with Darby...because that deception is important to make Israel and the Jew inconsequential. It simply isn't accurate and it is dangerous.
We are in the church age, the dispensation of grace where Romans 11:25-27 specifically applies:
“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins”
Romans 11:29 states: “for God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable.” Paul reassures believers that despite the unfaithfulness of the Jew, God's promises to the Jewish people will not be undone. This verse demonstrates God's grace and faithfulness are without change. It demonstrates that His chosen people and their blessings are secure. That assures Christians that we can count on His promises too.
Irrevocable means irrevocable. Do we want Him to break His promise to us? If we worship a promise breaker, then there isn't a whole lot to count on, is there?
"I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew." Romans 11: 1-2
