What happens when Christians start asking AI questions they once searched the Bible to answer? Artificial intelligence can research, summarize, analyze, and generate answers in seconds. But as this technology becomes woven into everyday life, Pastor Carl Gallups says there’s a much bigger question Christians need to consider: Are we simply using AI as a tool—or are we beginning to trust it as an authority? In Part 2 of this fascinating SkyWatchTV series, Carl tells Joe Horn about an unusual experiment he calls “training the dragon.” Instead of asking AI to teach him about the Bible, Carl began feeding it Scripture, historical information, archaeological evidence, and scholarly references—then watching how the system responded. What happened surprised him. But the conversation quickly moves beyond Bible research. Carl and Joe examine what could happen when people—especially younger generations—begin turning to AI for deeply personal questions once taken to parents, pastors, counselors, or Scripture. Can AI distinguish truth from whatever information dominates the internet? How easily could artificial intelligence reinforce misinformation or deception? And as AI-generated articles, images, videos, and even voices become increasingly convincing, how will we know what—or whom—to trust? And could the extraordinary rise of this technology have implications for biblical prophecy?

What if something extraordinary has been hiding in the Bible… right in front of us? Pastor Carl Gallups says he and Messianic Rabbi Zev Porat began noticing something in Scripture they had never seen before—and once they found it, they started seeing the same pattern again and again. From Genesis and the Garden of Eden to Abraham and Isaac, Psalm 22, Isaiah 53, Zechariah, Malachi and beyond, Carl says an unexpected pattern emerges—one that continually points toward Golgotha, the crucifixion, and Jesus Christ. But that's only the beginning. The conversation then turns to ancient Shechem, one of the most significant locations in biblical history. It was connected with Abraham, Jacob, Joshua, Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal—and centuries later, Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman. And according to Carl and Zev, something astonishing has been sitting there in the landscape itself… visible to anyone who knows where to look. Could Scripture contain patterns that have remained unnoticed for centuries? Why would they become apparent now? And could the story of Golgotha have been woven into the biblical narrative from the very beginning?

Did the Apostle Paul leave Christians a warning about how we should view Israel and the Jewish people—and are many believers ignoring it today? In Part 2 of Joe Horn's conversation with Israeli Bible teacher and Jewish follower of Jesus Ran Silberman, the discussion turns to one of the most controversial questions facing the Church: What is the biblical relationship between Israel and Gentile believers? Does this still apply today? Ran and the SkyWatchTV team examine replacement theology, centuries of Christian attitudes toward the Jewish people, claims spreading online about Christians in Israel, and why Ran believes the Church's relationship with the Jewish people matters far beyond politics. Then the conversation becomes deeply personal as Ran shares how Jewish people can be reached with the Gospel—and why the Church's own history can make conversations about Jesus far more complicated than many Christians realize. And in a world flooded with podcasts, influencers, viral clips, and competing interpretations of Scripture, Ran leaves viewers with one question: Who are you going to follow—people or God?

Something changed after October 7, 2023. Hostility toward Israel and the Jewish people surged around the world. Even within the Church, long-held beliefs about Israel, Zionism, and God's promises to the Jewish people are increasingly being challenged. But is what we're witnessing merely political—or could something much bigger be unfolding? In this special episode of SkyWatchTV, Joe Horn is joined in studio by Ran Silberman, a Jewish follower of Jesus, Bible teacher, and certified Israeli tour guide who has traveled all the way from Israel to offer a perspective few Americans ever get to hear firsthand. Growing up along Israel's northern border, Ran has lived with the reality of attacks from Israel's enemies. Today, he says Israelis are experiencing another dramatic change: a world that increasingly seems to be turning against them. But this conversation goes somewhere even deeper. What if the modern restoration of Israel isn't simply a geopolitical event? What if passages written by the biblical prophets thousands of years ago have something to say about what we're witnessing today? Are we watching Bible prophecy unfold right before our eyes?

Something is changing in the way many Christians are talking about Israel—and some of what is spreading online goes far beyond political disagreement. In Part 2 of this important SkyWatchTV conversation, Joe Horn and Pastor Mike Spaulding turn from the history of replacement theology to what they believe are its consequences in the world we're living in right now. Antisemitism and anti-Zionism are rising. Influential voices online are reaching millions. And arguments that once existed on the fringes are increasingly finding their way into Christian conversations. So what's actually driving this shift? And perhaps more importantly: How can Christians distinguish legitimate criticism of a government from something much deeper and more dangerous? The discussion also raises an even bigger biblical question. If the prophets really did speak about a future for Israel, what happens when Christians reinterpret—or simply dismiss—those prophecies?

Did God make promises to Israel that still stand today—or did those promises ultimately transfer to the Church? It's a theological question with enormous implications for how Christians understand Scripture, prophecy, Israel, and God's faithfulness to His covenants. In this new SkyWatchTV conversation, Joe Horn is joined by Pastor Mike Spaulding, author of Replacement Theology: Its Root, Fruit, and Consequences for Jewish People and the Nation of Israel, to examine a doctrine that has influenced Christian theology for centuries. But this discussion isn't confined to an old theological debate. As hostility toward Israel and Jewish people intensifies—and some of the loudest arguments are coming from within Christianity itself—Mike believes understanding where this theology came from and what Scripture actually says has become increasingly urgent. Did the Church replace Israel? Can God's promises be transferred? And what happens to biblical prophecy if Israel no longer has a distinct role in God's plan? The answers go much deeper than you might expect.

For centuries, the Jesuits have been associated with religion, education, politics, and some of the most powerful institutions in the world. But how far does that influence extend today? In the third installment of this explosive SkyWatchTV series, Joe Horn sits down once again with award-winning filmmaker Chris Pinto, creator of American Jesuits: A History of Jesuitism in the United States. After tracing Jesuit history and examining its connections to America's past in the first two episodes, this conversation brings the investigation into the modern world. Healthcare. Politics. Intelligence. Immigration. China. Entertainment. Globalization. Chris begins connecting historical threads to institutions and influential figures that millions of Americans encounter today—and argues that relationships most people would never think to look for have been hiding in plain sight. But how much of this is documented history? How much is influence? And how far does the network actually reach?

How much influence have the Jesuits had on American history—and does that influence continue today? In Part 2 of this fascinating three-part series, Joe Horn continues his conversation with award-winning filmmaker and historian Chris Pinto about his documentary, American Jesuits: A History of Jesuitism in the United States. Together they explore historical claims surrounding the Jesuit Order's presence in America, examining their role from the earliest colonies through pivotal moments in U.S. history. The discussion also looks at the relationship between religion, politics, medicine, and ideology, asking whether connections exist that many people have never considered.

What if some of the most influential chapters of American history have been largely forgotten—or intentionally overlooked? In Part 1 of this fascinating three-part series, Joe Horn welcomes award-winning filmmaker and historian Chris Pinto to discuss his latest documentary, American Jesuits: A History of Jesuitism in the United States. Together they examine the origins of the Jesuit Order, the Counter-Reformation, and the historical events that led to the Society of Jesuits becoming one of the most influential organizations in the world. They also explore why many early Protestant leaders viewed the Jesuits with deep concern and how those beliefs shaped discussions about religion and government in early America. In this episode, you'll discover: • The origins of the Jesuit Order and its founding mission • How the Protestant Reformation led to the Counter-Reformation • Why the Jesuits became one of history's most influential religious orders • The historical context behind early Protestant concerns about Jesuit influence • Why Chris Pinto believes recovering forgotten history matters today Whether you're interested in church history, American history, or the forces that have shaped Western civilization, this conversation offers a thought-provoking look at events that continue to spark debate centuries later.
