Synopsis:



Have you ever noticed how any time you post something online which may be critical of the state of Israel or the Jews, at least a few Christians will criticize you, or accuse you of being antisemitic, or quote a few verses to try to correct you? The minute you say something that they don't like, they immediately see a big, red antisemitism warning flag waving in front of their eyes. And the next thing you know, they are robotically parroting some of the same old worn-out arguments regarding how the Jews are still God's "Chosen People"; and how God promised them the land of Israel for their "eternal inheritance"; and how we are supposed to pray for the peace of Jerusalem; and how the Lord told Abraham "I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee". I'm sure that some of you have experienced this. I'll be delving into some of these issues momentarily.

Personally, I find it sad to see how very deceived and short-sighted so many of our Christian brethren have become. While they may not realize it, they have in fact been duped by the Zionist Jews who have their own particular agenda. It is for that reason that said Christians will immediately and often times quite forcefully come to Israel's defense, just like well-trained Pavlov dogs. A lot of their timelines also sport the Israeli flag, and memes in which they very proudly proclaim "I support Israel!" Do they even really understand what they are supporting when they say that? Do they truly understand what kind of people the Jews actually are?

Such misguided Christians seem to erroneously believe that they are going to win special favor with God, because they obediently support the Zionist state, which even this very minute continues to slowly pulverize Gaza into nonexistence. Then, of course, there is also the tragic fact that not even two weeks ago from the time of this writing, Israel attacked Iran on the pretext of an unproven assumption, just as also occurred with Iraq over two decades ago. My friends, it is the very same playbook all over again. Now please don't get me wrong. I am not saying that I support the Ayatollah. Of course not. If you want to know what I personally think of those two situations, please refer to my articles entitled "Nuclear States and the Israel-Iran War" and "Gaza Strip Horrors and the Trump Plan".

The sad truth of the matter is that the state of Israel is a very ungodly, antichrist place which has rejected their true Messiah for the past two thousand years; and most of the Jews continue to reject Him to this very day as well. Most of them spit at the mention of the name of Jesus, and they even dare to use His name continuously as a curse word. Personally, I find it downright sickening. Their holy book, the Babylonian Talmud, says terrible things concerning Jesus. But even more tragic are those blind, deceived Christians who turn around and give a blind eye to all of this wickedness, and basically excuse the Jews for their ungodly and antichrist behavior.

As I said a moment ago, to make matters worse, whenever one tries to share the truth with such deluded Christians, they will begin to automatically fire off their various reasons concerning why the Jews are still God's chosen people. They will remind you of how God miraculously returned them to the nation of Israel in 1948, and other such misguided reasons. As I've stated many times before, and point out in articles such as "Not Everyone is a Child of God", according to the New Testament Covenant, the ONLY chosen people there are in God's eyes are those embrace His dear Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. Anyone who knowingly rejects Christ is antichrist. That certainly includes most of the false Jews of Israel.

These same misguided Christians seem to totally ignore the many Bible verses where we are clearly told that God is not a respecter of persons. The Apostle Paul himself said that there is neither Jew nor Gentile in Christ. We are all one body of Believers. It does NOT matter what we are according to the flesh. In other words, in a biological sense. God's Word makes clear that all He sees is whether or not we have been washed in the precious Blood of the Lamb of God. If we have not been washed in Christ's Blood, then we are none of His. Period. Consider the following Bible verses as proof of these things:

"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."


"Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, THE LORD KNOWETH THEM THAT ARE HIS. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity."


"Wherefore now let the fear of the LORD be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the LORD our God, NOR RESPECT OF PERSONS, nor taking of gifts."


"Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS:"


"For there is no respect of persons with God."


"And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; NEITHER IS THERE RESPECT OF PERSONS WITH HIM."


"And if ye call on the Father, who WITHOUT RESPECT OF PERSONS judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:"


To those of you who continue to insist that the biological Jews are the only chosen people that God recognizes, can you not see that your belief is totally contrary to all of the previous Bible verses? To reiterate, the only chosen people there are, are those individuals who God himself has chosen to be saved since the foundation of the world, through faith in the Sacrifice of His dear son, Jesus. Period. Stop. There are simply no others. Certainly not the Christ-hating Jews of Israel.

Furthermore, are you even aware of the fact that according to a 2015 WIN/Gallup poll, 8% of all Israelis described themselves as "convinced atheists". In other words, they explicitly reject any belief in God, or in any gods. At the same time, an additional 57% of Israelis responded that they were "non-religious". This group includes many Israelis who may culturally identify as Jewish, but who do NOT practice or hold strong religious beliefs. A newer Associated Press report from 2021 indicated that about 45% of Jewish Israelis identify as being secular, meaning non-religious. Thus, if we combine these figures, it means that between 53% and 65% of the polled Israelis viewed themselves as being either non-religious or atheist. Complementary data also suggested that about 20% of Jewish Israelis outright do not believe in God, when agnostics and atheists are combined.

So when I come across Christians who repeatedly refer to Israel as the "Holy Land", I have to wonder if they're even aware of the reality which actually exists inside of Israel. In a historical context, Israel may be the Holy Land being as that is where Jesus and the Apostles lived and preached, but that is as far as it goes. Most of the Israelis today are most definitely NOT holy in any sense of the word; and they most certainly can not boast of any link to Christian Believers of the First Century who were Jewish. Now need I mention that Tel Aviv is a world-famous gathering place for the LGBTQ+ community? How exactly does that fit into their misguided "Holy Land" image?

Despite the wickedness and unbelief of the nation of Israel, every single year, duped and foolish American Christians by the millions go to the so-called "Holy Land" to spend their millions of dollars feeding the Israeli tourism industry. Of course, the Israelis will gladly smile at you and take all of the money that you so freely throw at them. However, do not forget that they don't even believe in the Jesus who you worship. So "Holy Land"? I really don't think so. They are more like an abomination and a stench in God's nostrils! So please stop drinking the vile Zionist Kool-Aid!

Something else you will often hear from these Christians is how God miraculously returned the Jews to Israel, and re-established it as a nation on May 15, 1948. Surely this is proof that they are still God's chosen people despite their continual rebellion and deep apostasy, right? Well, I am sorry to tell you, but WRONG! While I already amply discuss this topic in the series called "Modern Deception: Shall a Nation Be Born at Once?" and "Modern Deceptions: Return to Israel, the Fig Tree and This Generation", let me mention something here which I don't think I mention in either of those two series.

As many of my readers will know, in the Gospel of John, the eighth chapter, Jesus accused the unbelieving Jews of being the children of the Devil. In Matthew chapter twenty-three, the Lord also called them the children of Hell. Well, that being the case, besides his pride, what is one of his known attributes? In the Apostle Paul's Epistle to the Church at Corinth, he refers to Satan as the "god of this world". And now we come to what may be really tough for some of these pro-Israel Christians. What is one of the powers which Satan possesses? Some of you won't like the answer. Consider the following set of verses, taking particular note of the very last one:

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it . . . He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God."


"In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."


"And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it."


Oh, wow! Do you see that? As the god of this world, the Devil has the power and the authority -- as given to him by God -- to give the kingdoms of this present world to whomsoever he will. So if Jesus called the unbelieving Jews the children of the Devil and the children of Hell, doesn't it seem very logical that he is the one who made it possible for them to return to the land of Israel by manipulating the governments of the world who already belong to him? Hey, my friends, I'm just showing you the truth of the Scriptures. The point is, just because someone appears to be blessed with the things of this world does NOT necessarily mean that said things were given to them by God. Maybe you will want to ponder those thoughts for a few days.

Aside from all of the above, what also really irks me is that some of you misguided Christians actually think that Israel is your friend and ally. Wake up! That lie is purely political propaganda and nothing more. What has Israel ever done for the United States as an ally? If you were really paying attention, you would realize that Israel only cares about Israel. You need to stop and consider how many times American presidents have been used, abused, humiliated and humbled, and then thrown away by Israeli leadership. Now of course, occasionally an Israeli prime minister will come to the United States and give a speech before Congress. Just look at how they treat him, particularly the Republicans. They fall all over him as if he is royalty. Shame! SMH!

At this point in our discussion, I want to address one of the most common things I hear coming out of the mouths of these misguided and deceived Christians. I already briefly mentioned it earlier in this article. I am referring to how so many of these pro-Israel Christians will automatically jump to quoting Genesis 12:1-3. I imagine that some of them do it because that misguided mentality has been pounded into their heads for so many years, by the Jews themselves, and particularly by their very own churches who heavily promote the pro-Israel agenda. As I have mentioned before, some of those Christians act more like Old Testament Jews than like New Testament Christians who are freed from the burdens of the Law by the Blood of Christ.

Of course, some of those deceived Christians do it because they just don't know any better, and that is simply because they really don't take the time to seriously study the Bible for themselves. They prefer to be spoon-fed by their pastor, priest or minister. But the truth of the matter is that they totally misunderstand what those three verses in Genesis are actually talking about. Allow me to share them with you, and then I will offer a very Scriptural explanation concerning what I am personally convinced they really mean:

"Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed."


I have spoken many times before regarding the importance of understanding the Bible in context. In fact, I have written an article of the very same name which you will find listed at the end of this same article. I hope that you will take the time to read it. You may learn something from it. But anyway, regarding Genesis 12:1-3 above, the first question that we need to ask ourselves is who the Lord is talking to in those verses. Furthermore, who is He talking about? If you automatically spit out "Well, it is obvious that He is referring to the Jews", guess what? You are dead wrong!

What?! My dear friends, please stop and think. The Jews did NOT even exist yet at that time in Biblical history. As such, God could not possibly have been talking to them. He was in fact talking to the Patriarch Abraham -- who, by the way, at that time was still childless -- and telling Abraham how He would use him to bless the world. God tells him that He will make a great nation out of him. What nation? If you respond by saying Israel, guess what? You are again wrong! Sorry. If you are confused by all of this, please just keep reading, and the truth will soon become clear to you.

So let me ask you another question. Exactly how did Abraham bless the world? Quite simply, he blessed the world through his faith! Even though he and Sarah were already quite old, and most certainly past the normal age for bearing children, Abraham's faith in God's promise resulted in the birth of a child through pure faith. That was Isaac! Abraham had pretty much figured that Ishmael would be his heir, who was his progeny after the flesh through the Egyptian servant, Hagar. However, God had other plans.

So what happened next? God then tested dear Abraham's faith and love by asking him to sacrifice his only-begotten son, Isaac. My friends, think about that for a moment. Abraham had waited his entire life for his wife Sarah to produce an heir. Now they were both very old, and as I said, Abraham assumed that Ishmael would be the chosen heir. But then the Lord and two Angels appeared to him, and informed him that Sarah would yet have a son. Sarah was of course incredulous. We are told that both Abraham and Sarah laughed. Wouldn't you be rather doubtful as well if you were a woman that old? And yet, God kept His promise, and the following year, Sarah did in fact find herself giving birth to a son. Consider the following two groups of Bible verses:

"And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her. Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear? And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee! And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year. And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham."


"And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent. And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him. Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also? And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old? Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son. Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh. And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way."


So all of these unexpected and wonderful things happened to this old couple, the years passed, Isaac became a young boy, and then God turns around and tells Abraham to now sacrifice the pride and joy of his life. What?! But did Abraham balk? Did he question God why? No he did not! He immediately did as God had asked him to do without question. But that is not all. We are told that it took them three days to arrive at Mount Moriah where the sacrifice was to be made. Oh my! Just think how mentally torturous of a journey that must have been for dear Abraham, knowing that once they arrived there, he would have to kill the love of his life.

But is that really what went through Abraham's head? Well, for myself, I do not think so. I believe that he was full of faith right up until the very last minute when God provided a ram for the sacrifice instead. In fact, thousands of years later, while discussing the birth of Isaac, the Apostle Paul would write that Abraham "staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief." Consider the following set of verses:

"And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him. Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off. And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you. And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together. And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood. And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son. And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I. And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me. And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son."


"Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable."


My dear friends, are you starting to see the full and true picture yet? Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his very own son, Isaac, was in fact a foreshadow, archetype and picture or preview of what God would eventually do when He sacrificed His only-begotten Son for the sins of the world. Isaac -- the child born of faith -- eventually led to the birth of Judah, which eventually led to the birth of Christ, and THAT is how Abraham blessed the world! If you doubt that this is so, then please consider what the Apostle Peter said to his listeners at the very end of Acts chapter three. He in fact confirms exactly what God had said to Abraham many centuries earlier:

"Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, SENT HIM TO BLESS YOU, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities."


Do you see that? The blessing is through Jesus, and NOT by or through the Jews, or supporting Israel, or anything else. The blessing is in having our sins purged through the Blood of Christ, thus putting on His righteousness, as I explain in a number of other BBB Bible articles. Jesus is our Sacrificial Lamb. Abraham's ram was a foreshadow of it.

Now that great nation that God spoke to Abraham about, was it Israel as so many misguided Christians have been taught and still believe to this very day? Are the Jews as the sand of the sea, or do they number as the stars of heaven as God promised Abraham? NO they do not! Even to this day, they are less than twenty million in the entire world. But guess who does exist in such great numbers? The billions of people who have come to Christ since the First Century. THAT is what God was talking to Abraham about in those verses. It was NOT about the physical nation of Israel, or the physical Jews, most of whom remain antichrist to this very day. Now, if you think I am just making this up, then you should know that the Apostle Paul wrote about this very same thing. Consider the following group of verses:

"Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham . . . That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles THROUGH JESUS CHRIST; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith . . . Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And TO THY SEED, WHICH IS CHRIST . . . For YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And IF YE BE CHRIST'S, THEN ARE YE ABRAHAM'S SEED, and heirs according to the promise."


"Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise."


"Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. That is, They which are the children of the flesh, THESE ARE NOT THE CHILDREN OF GOD: but the CHILDREN OF THE PROMISE ARE COUNTED FOR THE SEED. For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son."


"By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:"


My friends, as I have explained before, that is why when the unbelieving Jews claimed to be the seed of Abraham in John chapter eight, the Lord strongly rebuked them and told them that they were the children of the Devil and liars. He told them that while they were the physical -- or biological -- seed of Abraham, they were NOT the true children of Abraham, because they didn't do the works of Abraham. What was that? Faith! The Jews did NOT have the same faith as Abraham, who knew and believed that the Messiah would eventually be born through him.

So to reiterate, that is how Abraham blessed the world. It was all about faith from the very start. It never really had anything to do with the flesh, regardless of what the Jews and misguided churches and Christians try to tell you. They either out of ignorance, or intentionally, pervert and twist the meaning of so many different Scriptures to fit their own agenda. Those Jews have purposely inserted themselves into some Bible prophecies where they absolutely do not belong. They want to make it about biological Jews, a physical land known as Israel, physical blessings on the Earth, etc. But what did Jesus say? Consider this verse:

"It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."


So it was because Abraham believed God and had faith, that it was counted to him for righteousness, and we Christians are the spiritual nation which was born through his faith. This is the absolute Biblical truth. I hope that you too are now convinced of this. I have tried my best to show this to you. Please carefully consider this next group of Bible verses. Notice how Paul emphasizes faith, faith, faith:

"For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness . . . Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness . . . For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith . . . Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all . . . Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. And BEING NOT WEAK IN FAITH, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: HE STAGGERED NOT AT THE PROMISE OF GOD THROUGH UNBELIEF; but was STRONG IN FAITH, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness."


"And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God."


So that, my friends, is the end of the story. It was, and always has been, about faith; the first seed which was born through faith -- meaning Isaac -- and the spiritual nation of faith which was born through the faith of Abraham, who foresaw the Messiah being born through his descendants. Do you get it now? If you too believe in Jesus through faith, then you too are a part of this very same spiritual nation, and we are the only ones who God recognizes as His own. We are His chosen people, who were chosen since the foundation of the world for Salvation.
