At age 67, I remember younger days watching old WWII movies
and Documentaries showing the atrocities Jews went through via The Final
Solution agenda of German Nazis and their leader Adolf Hitler. The scenes of
atrocities are embedded in my mind evoking disgust at the sight of seeing Jews
rounded up across Europe as the Nazi war machine spread like a deadly demonic cancer:
Violence, murders, rapes, thefts, Concentration Death Camps, Medical
Experiments – just off the top of mind-recollection. IT WAS HORRIFIC!
I am appalled people in Western Societies are allowing a
resurgence of such Jew-Hatred. ESPECIALLY at the hands of Muslims and Arabs-Who-Call-Themselves-Palestinians
(no such
historical people ever existed) who have encoded Jew-Hatred in
their revered writings (Quran, Hadith & Sira – SEE HERE,
HERE,
HERE,
HERE
& HERE)
from the days Jews rejected Muhammad as a Prophet. Muhammad then proceeded to slaughter Jews
in the Arabian Peninsula [SA: HERE
& HERE]
in Muslim conquests first usage of ethnic cleansing to those refusing conversion
to Islam. This was over a thousand years before Hitler and his Mein Kampf racial superiority creed.
How does a Jewish identity survive when history AND the Holy
Bible shows thousands of years of efforts to exterminate people who identify
themselves (whether Observant, non-Observant,
Atheistic-yet-cling-to-identity, or etc.) as associated with Judaism. A
religion in this present time so-called after the largest surviving Hebrew
Tribe after the Babylonian Captivity.
(If one does the math, one probably wonders why
traditionally there are 12-Tribes of the Hebrews instead of 13. Part of that
reason is the Priestly Tribe of Levi were never allotted Land. The Levite Tribe
was to be dedicated to Temple Service. The Tribe that would have been “Joseph”
was then divided into two separate Tribes yet often called the half-tribe of
Ephraim and the half-tribe of Manasseh. Those two tribes were a part of the Ten
northern Tribes lost in history after Assyrian conquest and deportation.)
The Kingdom of Judah conquered by Babylon consisted of Judah
and Benjamin and the Temple Levites. From Judah comes the term Jew. I’m not
going to waste my time arguing between ethnicity and religious faith. That
argument probably has been a thorn in the flesh of Jewish people and culture
especially since the Romans forced a mass deportation of the faithful after the
last Jewish revolt to Roman Rule circa 130s AD (or CE for you secular
fanatics).
I have no doubt the flux of Jews settling in foreign lands
contributed to a bit of assimilation to the gene pool of those foreign lands
while retaining a Rabbinical Judaism. Shucks pilgrim, I can even speculate an
infusion of non-Hebraic converts to Judaism occurred willing to undergo the
rigor needed to becoming Jewish. Not an easy task since for male converts, that
meant completing the conversion with the Covenant of Circumcision (Covenant-Keeping
Orthodox Explanation at Chabad.org
and lesser
requirements of “Liberal” [I read Left-Wing Torah compromising] conversion
that are Conservative
and Reform Judaism).
It is my belief (some might say theory) all Jews as
God’s Chosen by Abrahamic
Covenant (re-affirmed via the lineage of Isaac
and Jacob
then the Law-Giver
Moses) and will have a special dispensation to recognize or (sadly)
reject Jesus as their Messiah by the time of the Lord’s Return. Whereas Gentiles
only have to one-time option of hearing the Gospel and Believing or rejecting
in the present span of their lives.
Certainly Jew-Haters will disagree with my belief (theory)
about Jewish Redemption in Christ. But at least dwell on a bit of honesty, trusting
in Jews having an Abrahamic Covenant last minute choice in finding their
Messiah in Jesus is far better than brutalizing all Jews with hate in this
life.
Seek to be a Christ Follower in this Life toward all
humankind, to the Jew First, then the non-Jew (Biblically labeled as Gentiles)
and toward those claiming to be Christ-Follower.
Consider Romans 5: 1-6, 8-11 (NKJV):
5 [1]Therefore, having
been justified by faith, [a]we have peace with God through
our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have
access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in
hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only that, but we
also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces [b]perseverance; 4 and
perseverance, [c]character; and character,
hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because
the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was
given to us.
6 For when
we were still without strength, [d]in due time Christ died for the
ungodly.
Footnotes
a. Romans 5:1 Some ancient mss. let
us have
b. Romans 5:3 endurance
c. Romans 5:4 approved character
d. Romans 5:6 at the right time
8 But God
demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners,
Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now
been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through
Him. 10 For if when we were enemies we
were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been
reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. 11 And
not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our
Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

Genocide in Gaza?
The Truth You Won't Hear from Lamestream Media!
Posted by ACT
FOR AMERICA
May 10, 2024
We are all watching the keffiyeh-wearing,
terrorist-sympathizing, blithering idiots demonstrating on US campuses,
disrupting daily lives, and calling for a final solution.
Genocide in Gaza is a fabrication by Hamas, a terrorist
group, that is throwing out numbers without any facts to support them and the
Muslim Brotherhood operating under the Muslim Student Association, indicted in
the Holy Land Trial, pushing this lie across every campus where they have a
presence.
Where is the outrage from these sympathizers when…
· Five
and a half million people massacred in Congo and Sudan?
· Millions
of Sudanese currently displaced and more than 14,000 people killed while eight
convoys are blocked from getting aid to their people?
· 400,000
Yemenis killed and more than half the population is now in need of humanitarian
assistance because of war in Yemen?
· 500,000
people killed in Syria?
· 300,000
people killed in Iraq?
· 250,000
people killed in Afghanistan?
·
Tens of thousands of Burmese forced to flee
and 25% of the population is facing hunger and illness due to war in the
region?
Where is your outrage over true genocides happening
worldwide?
Do these people have zero value to you?
The reality is what we're seeing right now in America is
pure Jew-hatred.
It has nothing to do with genocide.
This is about their desire to see a Holocaust in our
lifetime. This is their end goal.
They hate Jews so much that they are calling out loud in
America in 2024 for the final solution.
We are not going to allow them to get away with this.
Defund
Extremist, Pro-Hamas Organizations!
Together, we stand up against hatred, bigotry, and
violence.

The Sovereignty of God and the Choosing of Israel
Israel - Apple of God's Eye (New American Prophet Photo)
POSTED BY: DR. MICHAEL BROWN
MAY 9, 2024
Why did God choose the people of Israel to be a “royal
priesthood” and a “holy nation” (Exodus 19:5)? Was it because of something
inherently good in them? Was it because they were better than other peoples?
The Lord answered this question directly, saying, “The LORD did not set his
affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other
peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. But it was because the LORD
loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out
with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of
Pharaoh king of Egypt.” (Deuteronomy 7:7–8)
Paul addressed this as well, writing, “For he says to Moses,
‘I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I
have compassion.’ It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but
on God’s mercy.” (Romans 9:15-16)
In short, Israel was chosen because of the sovereignty of
God, not because of Israel’s own merit.
He set His love on Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and determined
to bless the world through their offspring, meaning through the people of
Israel and ultimately, through the seed of Abraham par excellence, Jesus the
Messiah. And because He made unconditional promises to the patriarchs, He has
kept His word through the generations, preserving the people of Israel,
disciplining them, scattering them, and regathering them.
That’s the only reason we are still here (I say this as a
Jewish person myself), and that’s why we are back in the Land today. This is by
the sovereign will of God.
As He stated explicitly, “This is what the LORD says, he who
appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by
night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the LORD Almighty is his
name: ‘Only if these decrees vanish from my sight,’ declares the LORD, ‘will
Israel ever cease being a nation before me.’ This is what the LORD says: ‘Only
if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be
searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they
have done.’” (Jeremiah 31:35–37)
There you have it. Israel will be preserved as a people no
matter what.
We have been (and will be) judged and punished for our sins.
But we will be preserved. So says the Lord.
As for Israel boasting in its own righteousness, the Lord
actually said to the prophet Ezekiel, “You are not being sent to a people of
obscure speech and strange language, but to the people of Israel— not to many
peoples of obscure speech and strange language, whose words you cannot
understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.
But the people of Israel are not willing to listen to you because they are not
willing to listen to me, for all the Israelites are hardened and obstinate.”
(Ezekiel 3:5–7)
In short, He said, “If I sent you to prophesy to the
nations, they would listen. But not My own chosen people!”
Paul reiterated this in the clearest possible terms, writing
to Gentile Christians in Rome, “As far as the gospel is concerned, they
[meaning the people of Israel who rejected Jesus as Messiah] are enemies for
your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of
the patriarchs, for God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable.” (Romans
11:28–29)
Israel remains elect and chosen for God’s sovereign purpose
and plan. Israel still has a mission in the earth.
This does not mean that individual Jews are guaranteed
salvation. Not for a moment. All of us, Jew and Gentile alike, have fallen
short because of our sins, and all of us need mercy through the cross.
But this does mean that, despite Israel’s failings, God’s
giftings to them remain intact and His election of them remains secure. He does
not change His mind.
This should be a great comfort to Christians, a visible
demonstration in the earth of the faithfulness of God. If He makes a promise,
He will keep it, despite our failings and sins and shortcomings.
We stand by His goodness, not our own, by His mercy, not our
righteousness. We, too, live by grace.
Unfortunately, many Christians take umbrage at the idea that
the Jewish people are still chosen in any way, despite the explicit testimony
of Scripture. They see this as somehow unfair.
To the contrary, God’s choosing of Israel is a reminder of
His sovereignty, a testimony to His perseverance, and an ongoing, real-life
example of the promise-keeping nature of our Lord.
Rather than grumbling about this, we should rejoice,
recognizing that if God could break His promises to Israel, He could break His
promises to the Church.
Thank God that is not who He is, and when you look at Israel
today – the people worldwide and the nation in the Middle East – you’re looking
at the sovereignty of God in action, right until this moment.
He can be trusted – fully.
