The Modern State of Israel - How Did This Happen? Part 1

Welcome to Episode 7 of the God and Game Theory Podcast with Tom Peterson — where we learn how to break free from the shackles of this world and uncover the deeper truths about heaven on earth.

In this special episode, Tom steps outside the regular series to dive deep into one of the most controversial and important topics of our time: the modern state of Israel, its biblical significance, and the complex theology surrounding it — including dispensationalism, Christian Zionism, Judaism, premillennialism, and the rapture.

What is God and Game Theory?

This channel is here to help you become better prepared for what’s to come - today, tomorrow, and in the future.

We are living in Biblical times, and the most important period of time in the history of all mankind.

So, it is incredibly important that we know the truth - because the truth is the light that guides our path - and our destiny.

Through the interpretation of scripture, and the deciphering of Biblical prophecies, we gain a better understanding of the times that we are living in - which allows us to make sense of this world.

Via the knowledge and utilization of Game Theory, we are able to see the truth amongst the lies, and develop an extra-sensory ability to understand what the enemy is doing - in relation to spiritual and psychological warfare.

So, consider God to be your shield - Your Protector
And Game Theory to be your sword - Your Armament

By having these weapons in your life, you will become a fearless and courageous warrior.
