I'm standing here in JFK airport waiting
for my flight to Hong Kong to take off.
And as we walked to our gate, we passed
by terminal after terminal, gate after
gate, flights heading to every corner of
the globe, going to Sydney and Santiago
and Frankfurt and Tokyo and Vancouver,
city after city, gate after gate. But
out of all of them, out of all the gates
we passed, there was only one gate that
had extra security around it. There's
only one gate with canine units or
sniffing for explo explosives or one
gate with armed guards holding AK-4.
There's only one gate that literally
makes you go through a security a second
time and that was the gate to Israel.
Why is that? Why is the gate to Israel
different from every other gate? Why
does a plane to Tel Aviv need a level of
protection that no other destination
does? The answer is because that plane
isn't heading to just any other country.
It's flying towards the spiritual center
of the universe to a land where heaven
meets earth where Torah and truth flow
outward to all of humanity. That gate
leads to a place that holds the world
accountable, that demands we live with
with morality and with meaning, with
good with with godliness. A place that
says to the nations, there is a
standard. There is a creator. There is a
purpose. And not everyone is ready for
that message. For some, it's too much
holiness to handle. Their souls aren't
prepared or they've convinced themselves
they don't want to be. The next time
they make you go through extra security
at the airport or you need to have a
full body pat down to get into a shaw
while the church down the block stands
wide open. Don't feel afraid. Don't feel
ashamed. Feel honored. Feel empowered.
You're part of the most transformative,
influential people on earth. A people
that carry the banner of Hashem, that
speaks his truth, that represent his
light in a world full of shadows. A
people that hold the flag of God high in
the world. And no amount of pressure, no
amount of fear, no amount of
intimidation will ever make us put that
flag down.
