Sid: My guest Dr. Vitaliy Fishberg is a Russian Jew and while he was in medical school he got a Bible. You know what’s so amazing to me Vitaliy and as bright as you were, you wanted to be the greatest doctor in the world this book the Bible you couldn’t understand.
Vitaliy: Yes, ha-ha, yeah it actually it shocked me deeply you know, but now without the Holy Spirit you cannot understand Bible and you could not understand spiritual things.
Sid: Now tell me about the book “They Thought for Themselves” and for those that are not familiar with the book we did hundreds of thousands of these in Russian, it’s called “They Thought for Themselves.” I had a dream and God told me to do this book of ten Jewish testimonies, Jewish people from every walk of life that have come to the conclusion that Jesus is the Messiah. And we have this book and others close to a million in print and the book “They Thought for Themselves” is all over the former Soviet Union. One of the things you said to me yesterday Vitaliy which was very interesting is how important books in the former Soviet Union. And that people unlike in America they get a book, they’ll read it and there’s millions of Jewish people. We’re mailing this book systematically to Jews throughout the former Soviet Union. Tell me the experience with your Jewish family.
Vitaliy: You know what, I was born again and I was attending the church and I was even serving the Lord in Moldova, but my family really rejected me because they said that I betrayed the faith of our fathers. Actually they had never attended synagogue, but they said a Jewish person cannot believe in Jesus because Jesus because He’s God of the goyim He’s got the Gentiles. So really it was nightmares for some years, and especially for my father and my grandfather. Okay what’s happened next was I was bringing my friends from the church too so they also would get saved you know, but it did not help. And then one day actually one Jewish man called who found Yeshua from your book Sid, I mean he came to my house and he just gave his book in Russian language to my father. And he said, “You know what, just speak for yourself, you’re a very intellectual man.” My father has two graduates schools, yes.
Sid: Graduate degrees, yes.
Vitaliy: What happens next we started to read and Russian people, Russian Jewish people they all love to read. And what’s happened basically when we read chapter by chapter, finally when we read the story of Michael Brown. Something happens when they said, “You know what, tell us a little bit more about Jesus”, and when I started to say that He’s really a Jewish man you know He was born in Jewish family, and all the Apostles were Jewish people, and all the first church actually all was Jewish, yes. And actually they started to think and we really thought for themselves and we finished the story of Michael Brown they allowed me to pray with them and so Yeshua came into their heart and now they’re saved. Actually now my mother also having supernatural encounters. Yesterday it was so funny you know every week now I could see rainbow okay and like…
Sid: Well, well every week you could see a rainbow is that what you said?
Vitaliy: Yeah.
Sid: But you see these rainbows in airplanes and in airplanes and in…
Vitaliy: Even inside of my house, in the stairs…
Sid: Sort of like a sign that God shows you that He’s there.
Vitaliy: Yeah, but actually rainbow, this is a sign of God’s presence also this is a sign of God’s favor. And also this is the sign of covenant, yes.
Sid: Yes, of course.
Vitaliy: So at least every week I could see rainbow, yesterday was so beautiful rainbow in the sky in New York and I came out with digital camera I could take a picture. When they came back my mother said, “Why are you so much agitated” I said, “mother I saw huge rainbow.” She said to me, “I see the rainbow every day when I wake up in the sky, I could see rainbow every morning”, and I said, “Wow.” Could you image that Sid?
Sid: You know I have a sign before something good is about ready to happen to me I’ll be driving my car and I’m not looking for it, but I’ll see a license tag with three sevens and I’ve learned that that’s God saying, “I’m with you.”
Vitaliy: Wow.
Sid: And that’s what I believe when you see the rainbow it’s the same type of thing.
Vitaliy: Yes.
Sid: Now, you know what is and I have to tell you this, when I read the report of your family coming to the Lord through my book hundreds of thousands of these books are being mailed to Russian Jews in Siberia, in Moscow, and St. Peters, and unlike America they read these books.
Vitaliy: Yes.
Sid: And not only do they read it, the whole family reads these books because books are precious to them in the former Soviet Union. But this is God’s moment, what is God showing you about Jewish people right now Vitaliy?
Vitaliy: Sid let me go back just for one second, and when my family got saved I was so much amazed because I mean I never was thinking about so simple and quick way to get them saved, truly I tell you. And you know I just said, “Wow, this is just a book”, and when I started to pray, Yeshua, Lord Jesus spoke to me something about this book and you know you’re going to be happy to hear it, He said to me, “I made this book as a weapon of mass destruction.”
Sid: It’s God’s weapon of mass destruction, okay. Ha-ha.
Vitaliy: “I put My special anointing on this book, this is not about the story of the people, this is about My special anointing, and I prepared this book as a weapon of mass destruction for hundreds of thousands of people to come to know their Lord.”
Sid: It’s the anointing that is on it more important than even the material, that’s what I’m hearing you say.
Vitaliy: Yes, yes Sid.
Sid: Oh, that is so; I have to tell you this whole thing is so encouraging for this. For years and years I’ve been mailing hundreds of thousands of these books, they’re in multiple languages because God told me to do it. I’ve been doing it by faith and I’m beginning to see now that Jewish people all over the world are coming to the Lord, then they’re leading their friends to the Lord; all from this one supernatural “weapon of mass destruction.” I like it Vitaliy.
Vitaliy: Ha-ha, and over half over many, many hundreds of thousands of Russian speaking Jewish people who accepted the Lord, through this book; I just want to thank you Sid for your obedience to the voice of the Lord. I just want to thank you Sid on behalf of these people.
Sid: Well, to me there is nothing more exciting than knowing what God wants you to do and doing it. And the only way that someone can know what God wants them to do and do is to have intimacy with God… Now Vitaliy what is God up to with Jewish people right now?
Vitaliy: I strongly believe, and actually Lord Jesus Yeshua spoke to me many times that the era of Gentiles the period of Gentiles it’s almost over, and now this is the era when millions of Jewish people worldwide is coming to have faith in the Lord Jesus, in their Messiah. And the Lord Jesus told me that now He will start to come to many Jewish people in night dreams to reveal who He is, the Jewish Messiah the one and only Savior. And also He told me that many Rabbis now will open their hearts towards their Messiah.
Sid: I happen to have firsthand knowledge on this, and recently 70 Orthodox Rabbis have come to faith in Jesus.
Vitaliy: Wow.
Sid: And it’s what you have just said, we are at the fullness of the Gentile age and the spiritual scales are being removed from the eyes of Jewish people.
