Sid: There’s a wall of separation between Jews and Gentiles, but there’s even a greater wall of separation today between Jews and Christians and I think one of the most graphic presentations of this to me. And it’s about ready to change to me Mishpochah is that some in the traditional Jewish Community fought so hard to stop the movie “The Passion,” Mel Gibson’s movie from playing. And that’s only because they don’t understand what has occurred. But very soon I believe that so many back slidden Gentile Christians are going to see that movie and come to the Lord, and many have already; that they are going to get red hot for Jesus and then do the major purpose of your salvation. The major purpose of your salvation is found in Roman’s 11:11 “Salvation has come to the Gentile to provoke the Jew to jealousy.” Why? Because Jesus said “He came to break down the middle wall of separation between Jew and Gentile to form One New Man in Messiah. And that’s why Amos says that when the Tabernacle, or that stands for the house, and the house stands for the family in Hebrewism. When the family of David, or the Jewish people are restored to God; obviously through Messiah; Amos in the last chapter says the rest of the Gentiles will come in. So I believe that the reason Mel Gibson did the movie “The Passion” and the reason that Dr. Bree Keyton did her book, and she’s my guest this week, “The Passion What Does it Mean?” And the reason that Bree did her songs on the strips of the Messiah that people are getting marvelously healed from is so that Gentile Christians can be red hot for Jesus and do what Jesus commands Gentile Christians to do, “Salvation has come to the Gentile to provoke the Jew to jealousy;” to share the gospel is all occurring. Mel Gibson doesn’t have a clue, but his movie and the book “The Passion What Does it Mean” all occurred so that Jewish people could be saved. This is what Amos says “So the rest of the Gentles can come in.” That’s God’s plan because He so loves the whole world. And I have Dr. Bree Keyton on the telephone, I’m speaking to her in her home in Kansas City, Missouri. About her book called “The Passion, What Does it Mean?” And Bree what is happening when people for the first time understand what the passion means, but even more so can see it through Jewish eyes as opposed to say in the movie by Mel Gibson through Catholic eyes. What is happening when people read this book?
Bree: The people that have contacted me after reading the book, and it’s only been out a short time. I am getting calls from people saying “I read this and I was so thrilled to see all that Jesus took for me and how He suffered for me that I gave my life to Him that I became born again.” And the book of course, the purpose was to show people the majesty and the glory of all that Jesus took for us.
Sid: Now it was really birthed out a vision that you had in May of 1993. The big objection that I hear people that have seen Mel Gibson’s movie is “It’s too violent, it did not have to be that violent.” But tell me about the vision you had in May of 1993 and maybe that will address some of those critics.
Bree: The vision I saw was startling, it was horrific, it was graphic, and Jesus was being beaten as He was receiving those stripes before He went to the cross. I mean it was bloody, much like Mel Gibson’s movie.
Sid: Well you saw the movie, which had more suffering; which was bloodier your vision or Mel Gibson’s movie?
Bree: Actually my vision was so bloody that I was looking at this thing that God showed me with horror; it took me 3 days to recover from what I saw. The Lord spoke to me and said “Write a song and I will heal My people.” So I wrote this song stripes with 39 whip cracks in it.” And literally 1000’s of people have been saved and healed just listening to this song. We’ve had people get up out of wheelchairs; we’ve had the dumb speak, we’ve had deaf ears open, blind eyes open. People with back trouble have been healed. And on and on this goes, lots of heart trouble healed because what I do is I call out diseases and the second the people hear that it’s like the sovereign hand of God reaches in and heals them on the spot.
Sid: What happened when they hear that crack? What happened to Jesus literally and spiritually?
Bree: Each whip cracks that He took healed us; there’s actually been doctors that have said that there is 39 categories of disease in the world today. And we believe and I believe with all of my heart according to scripture that says “By His stripes we were healed.” I believed that with every stripe healed us; literally healed us. We’ve had people driving down the street in their car just listening to this and they just get healed driving in their car; we can always tell where they’re playing this on their radio because the radio gets flooded with phone calls.
Sid: Okay, I want to hear this song it’s called “Stripes.”

Sid: That was Bree Keyton my guest on the air right now; I’m interviewing her on her book and CD “The Passion, What Does it Mean?” Tonight is erev Pesach, the evening of Passover begins. Bree how is Passover a foreshadow of the Messiah?
Bree: It really began in Egypt when the Hebrew children were told to kill a lamb and to put its blood over their doorpost and then of course the death angel would pass them by. That’s the death angel of the 10th curse that came upon Egypt that was to slaughter the first born of Egypt. If they put this blood on this doorpost the death would pass them by and they were to completely consume this lamb. And we know that they walked out of Egypt completely healed. How does that apply? Well, they began the feast of Passover every year after that as you know. And what they would do is that they would a lamb; they would put it on a spit in the shape of a cross and they would roast it and completely consume it. So that when they walked out of Egypt the land of sin and wickedness and compromise; we too could put the blood of Jesus on the doorposts of our hearts and walk out of sin and compromise into the Kingdom of the Living God in the Name of Jesus shed blood. Now the Hebrews when they walk out of Egypt were completely healed, it says everybody walked out of there healed. Now that’s a miracle right there; when we accept Jesus and the blood He shed for us we walk out of the land of sin and compromise; the land of wickedness into the land of the living. That is we accept the living lamb of God as our sacrifice. And His blood goes over the doorpost of our hearts and we are completely healed in Him. Now Passover is a marvelous picture; you know as a Jew that you’ve celebrated Passover you’re whole life and what a marvelous shadow picture it is of the living God. Every year just before sundown they would kill a lamb each house in Egypt and then they would have their Passover meal. Now Jesus Himself was killed just before sundown hanging on that cross, and He was put in the grave just before sundown. They had to hurry because Passover was beginning and they couldn’t do any work on the Passover they were to rest because it was also a Sabbath. Now Jesus as He hung on the cross He spoke forth words, the same words that were mirrored by the High Priest on the Temple Mount.
Sid: I’ll tell you what; hold that thought we’ll pick up right here on tomorrow’s broadcast….
