the sacred scriptures and the holy fathers teach that the jews were prohibited from practicing the law outside of jerusalem. this is a demonstrable fact which i will endeavor to prove to anyone who desires to know the truth. this whole antichrist inspired earthly zionist movement is all focused toward one goal. to pave the way for the coming of antichrist and his tower of babylon.
Christ came unto his own (the jews) and they received him not, antichrist will come unto his own (the jews) and him they will receive. (John 5:43)
when the jews rejected the Lord Jesus Christ he made an example of them by destroying the city, the temple, the priesthood, their entire way of life. besides the two million jews who perished in the siege of jerusalem in 70 a.d., many more were scattered from babylon to the four corners of the earth, carried off in bondage as slaves. the jew became a curse, a taunt, a proverb, a byword amongst all men. jews became wanderers and vagabonds. all the curses outlined in deuteronomy 28 came upon them for their utter rejection of their God and Saviour.
the pitiful jews are God's memorial to the world that rejection and slaying of his Son is the utmost blasphemy against God, the unpardonable sin.
after all, what is the most heinous crime you can imagine? surely murder you would say. i can think of something worse. murdering your own children. after all, some who are murdered are worthy of death, and it's a blessing that they no longer walk the face of earth.
but children? innocent children? your own no less? is there any crime more heinous and wicked then murdering your own children? this is precisely what the jews did. read ezekiel 16 or ezekiel 20 if you do not believe me.
and yet for all this, after all the whoredoms and abominations of israel, all the idolatry, all the incest, even human sacrifice of their own children, God shewed them mercy, and brought them back into the land. he restored the temple, returned the priesthood, prophets and law, their way of life.
so how would one explain the following 1800 years? the jews were exiled from the land for 1800+ years--no temple, no priesthood, no prophets for all that time. after all their wicked abominations before, God always took pity on them for his namesake and brought them back.
now you must understand that the entire period of jewish history from moses until the coming of Jesus the Messiah only spanned 1500 years. in that time the northern tribes and then the southern kingdom of judah were carried off into captivity and also returned on more than one occasion.
now we must ask ourselves, if the jews are to be believed, and Jesus was a malefactor and not the Son of God, then why wouldn't God have rewarded them for executing a malefactor that sought to deceive the whole world and turn men away from the One True God?
and yet what happened? God not only did not reward them, he slew them and scattered them to the four winds, to be nomads and vagabonds throughout every corner of the earth!
now is this logical? why would God restore the jews to their way of life after they sacrificed their own children in the fire to devils, and yet after (if we are to believe their lies) they crucified a malefactor they were punished far greater and far longer?
of course we know the truth. Jesus was not a malefactor but is God and the Son of God. and as a testimony for all time to all men, God shows that no matter how vile and wicked your crimes may be, nothing surpasses the outrage of slaying God. nothing brings greater wrath,
For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. (1 Thessalonians 2:14-16)
the holy apostle Paul makes it clear why God's wrath has come upon the jews to the uttermost. the jews killed the Prince of life, and they crucify the Son afresh every time they try to prevent others from hearing the good news of Jesus Christ.
now the jews will say, it was not God that was punishing us these 1900 years, it was men, acting contrary to the will of God. what blasphemy O jew! you (falsely) claim to be the chosen people of God, the apple of his eye, and now you claim he has no power to save you? did not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob save you from your affliction at the hands of men in egypt? did not the same God rescue from your captors in babylon? does the Almighty who allowed you to rout amalek, who caused the walls of jericho to come crashing down, not have the power to save you out of your affliction these past 1900 years? why were you not allowed to be back in the land you crave so much? why has there been no prophets for 1900+ years, if you did a righteous thing and slew a malefactor?
but then the pitiful unbelieving jew will say, but this is all about to change! God is gathering us back to OUR land, God is going to let us have OUR temple back, we are going to regain the throne of solomon in all his glory!
Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. (Isaiah 66:1-4)
yes God will choose the delusions of men, and send strong delusion to those who love not the truth and allow them to build their tower of babel...
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12)
yes, God is allowing earthly zionism to occur...
For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you. (1 Corinthians 11:19)
and God will allow antichrist to gather the tares into jerusalem, so that they may be separated from the wheat and burned in the fiery furnace. and God is going to allow antichrist to order a city and tower (the idol's temple) to be built in his name and for his glory, and not for the glory of God.
God is going to separate the sheep from the goats via his two covenants--one a covenant of life, the other a covenant of death. Jesus Christ is our everlasting covenant of peace. antichrist is going to re-establish the old covenant imposing circumcision and saturday sabbath observance, and temple sacrifice, etc.
the religion of antichrist is the old covenant law of works which has been abolished, for the true covenant (not the shadow) and the true Law is Jesus Christ himself.
the zionist jews are going to serve antichrist and they need control over the city of jerusalem and a temple and a priesthood to fulfill their strong delusions.
opposing the earthly form of zionism is opposing the kingdom of antichrist that is being paved.
no jerusalem, no temple, no priesthood means no antichrist!
>> The land of Palestine has replaced the golden calf. <<
the land of palestine is being prepared for the entrance of the golden calf--the antichrist.
Jesus Christ is the true Lamb of God:
By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all....But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; (Hebrews 10)
Satan fell from grace, and was cast out of heaven:
I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. (Luke 10:18)
Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.(Galatians 5:2-4)
this is Satan's desire, that we fall from grace as he fell from grace. he will seek to accomplish his plan by deceiving the nations into circumcision and outward works of the old covenant law such as carnal sabbath keeping. this is how Christ will separate the sheep from the goats, the wheat from the chaff.
you cannot practice the old covenant jewish law of moses without forsaking grace--Jesus Christ.
the old covenant law of moses cannot be practiced outside of jerusalem, it is simply forbidden in the scriptures. as much as the jews would like you to believe that their talmudic judaism is pleasing to God, is in actuality a farce and even worse than a farce, it is blasphemy.
for instance, how many jewish people do you know who make the pretense of observing the feast of unleavened bread and passover in their home every year? do these children of darkness really think they are pleasing God when they engage in this charade?
they are not doing this for God, they are doing this solely to impress men. they think they can deceive Christians into believing that they are faithfully upholding the law of moses when they are blaspheming both moses and God.
read deuteronomy 16. the scriptures are clear that passover was not to be sacrificed anywhere outside jerusalem. yet for nearly 2,000 years jews have not been in jerusalem, observing the passover contrary to the law and provoking God to his face.
Deuteronomy 16:
Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the LORD thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the LORD shall choose to place his name there....Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the LORD thy God giveth thee: But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt...Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the LORD empty:
you see, the talmudic religion of the jews for the last 2,000 years has been a fraud, a deceit, a farce, a contrivance, a blasphemy. Christians throughout the centuries knew this, and that's why the jews were not given the mastery, but were cursed wherever they went, a punishment for their obstinate fighting against God.
but now Christians, who are the new Israel, the true Israel, the true Jews, the true Zion, are turning away from the Lord ourselves. like Jacob, we are waxen fat, and are fit for slaughter. to the extent that we forsake our Savior, he rebukes and chastens us by our enemies. in the old covenant israel were the chosen people God and the egyptians and the assyrians, the babylonians, etc. were their enemies. when they rebelled against the Lord and forsook his commandments, the Lord would correct them by allowing their enemies to take them captive.
this has all changed in the new covenant dispensation. now Christians are the people of God and the jews are the enemies of Christ and Christians. the jews are the egyptians, the babylonians, etc. and God causes Christians to be carried off to mystery babylon (jerusalem) when we disobey.
this is a very simple concept. the gentiles that accepted Christ have become jews (branches grafted onto the olive tree), and the jews who reject Christ are branches that have become broken off from the olive tree and are no longer fruitful branches but dead branches.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. (Ephesians 5:12)
the hymnology of the Church tells us that the synagogues is the fruitless fig-tree that Christ cursed. the unbelieving jews do not have Christ and are therefore in gross darkness, for Christ is the light of the world. they are broken and dry branches that are useless except to be gathered and burned in the fire. they cannot bring forth fruit if they are severed from the tree.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. (John 15:4-6)
now it is clear that the jews and their synagogues are the unfruitful works of darkness.
And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away. (Matthew 21:19)
Christ cursed the fig-tree (the synagogue) and said let no fruit grow on it henceforward forever.
the Ninth Ode of the Palm Sunday canon for Compline:
The rod of Moses was turned into a serpent, and the rod of Aaron, which had been withered and fruitless, was changed into a green branch that brought forth leaves; but the lawless synagogue was changed into a fruitless fig tree. Thou hast cursed the fruitlessness of the law, since it brought forth as leaves the shadow of understanding of the letter, but had no fruit of deeds because of its lawlessness. . . .
now in the old covenant israel fornicated with the nations around her and learned their ways, forsaking the admonition that they learn not the ways of the heathen, but be holy and set apart from the heaven.
new covenant israel (the Church) is repeating the mistakes of old israel. we are fornicating with the jews and learning their blasphemous ways. now, lest we become exalted with pride, and be branches that are broken off as well, we must acknowledge that this is our own fault, and that the jews are not forcing us to forsake Christ and his Church. we are doing this of our own free will, and to our own destruction.
the jews can seek to brainwash Christians all they want, but if we turn to Christ and walk in his paths and follow his commandments the jews will not be able to deceive us, rather Christ will enlighten us.
that is why people like emile and myself are trying our best with God's grace to follow the commandments of the Lord and expose the unfruitful works of darkness, so Christians will not hearken after their ways. for the ways of the jews and muslims lead to death and destruction.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. (Ephesians 5:12)
therefore Christians ought not have any fellowship with muslims or jews but we should expose their unfruitful works of darkness.
if our detractors in their ignorance choose to call that hate, the Lord judge between ye and we.
