Yep. Pretty much. Some quotes from the book, "In Defense of Israel." # If God intended for Jesus to be the Messiah of Israel, why didn't he authorize Jesus to use supernatural signs to prove he was God's Messiah, just as Moses had done? (p. 137) # Jesus refused to produce a sign ... because it was not the Father's will, nor his, to be Messiah. (p 138) # If Jesus wanted to be Messiah, why did he repeatedly tell his disciples and followers to "tell no one" about his supernatural accomplishments? (p. 139) # The Jews were not rejecting Jesus as Messiah; it was Jesus who was refusing to be the Messiah to the Jews. (p. 140) # They wanted him to be their Messiah, but he flatly refused. (p. 141) # He refused to be their Messiah, choosing instead to be the Savior of the world (p. 143) # Jesus rejected to the last detail the role of Messiah in word or deed. (p. 145)

Hi Sydney, His exact words were:"Jesus did not come to earth to be the Messiah". In addition, he said "the Jews were right in rejecting Jesus since he never claimed to be the Messiah." We are actually experiencing what I've been telling you for years--anti-Christ Judaism/Israel being joined by Satan's little helper, the fundamentalist Christian-Zionists. Hagee also said to the Jews at AIPAC that their is more important things that unites us than divides us. What is it that separates the Christians from the Jews? Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Can anything be more important than that? What could possibly unite Hagee and his supporters to anti-Christ Judaism that is more important than our divine savior Jesus Christ? You should go to the library and listen to Hagee's speech on the matter.

There is one follow-up that I came across, back in early Dec. '07 which said that Hagee was going to retract (by rewriting a chapter from the book); but it has yet to materialize. from the website link at the bottom: "Hagee Heresy" Update... Breakthrough and Answer to Prayer by: Don Geraci Since the writing of my commentary, "The Mystery of Lawlessness and The Hagee Heresy", a significant development has taken place that must be both publicized and applauded: 'The Hagee Heresy' has been retracted! Rev. John Hagee has agreed to rewrite the chapter in question in his new book, "In Defense of Israel" - i.e. the section of the book that made the clearly heretical claims about the Messiahship of Jesus. Reference: "John Hagee Declares: "Jesus Did Not Come to Earth to Be the Messiah" threshingfloor.onevoicemm.net evoicemm.net/weblog/?p=868 That is good news and certainly an answer to prayer, such as I noted in the conclusion of my commentary. I exhorted us to pray for such a retraction from Hagee and deliverance from a spirit of delusion that prompted him to astonishingly deny the Messiahship of Jesus. A noted and very reputable evangelical leader/scholar who had written a strong rebuttal of Hagee's heretical teaching on Jesus' Messiahship in his new book, 'In Defense of Israel', was recently able to dialogue with Hagee on this issue. The result of that dialogue was that John Hagee agreed to rewrite the chapter in question, submit it for scholarly review prior to publication and be open to future input on this issue. Certainly we can all rejoice in this good news and commend John Hagee for submitting to godly counsel and reproof. The fallout in both evangelical circles and the Jewish community could have been significantly greater without such a retraction. Instead of addressing the 'Hagee Heresy', we can instead exclaim, 'Hallelujah, Hagee!' Of course we will have to await the revised section in his new book before a final verdict on the whole issue. Hopefully, there will be no questionable statements or doctrines that resurrects any question whatsoever about the fact that Jesus IS - and always has been - the Jewish Messiah. Let me emphasize that my commentary, "The Mystery of Lawlessness and The Hagee Heresy", was critical of the Hagee doctrinal stance - not John Hagee personally. I am aware that there are many 'fans' of John Hagee in the Body of Christ (we should be fans of Jesus first and foremost - He never fails). My concern and contention was that, based on 1 John 4:1-3, every born-again believer - myself included and including leaders such as John Hagee - are subject to the delusion that prompted him to make such heretical claims about Jesus' Messiahship. The alarm needed to be sounded to EVERY believer at this critical juncture in the eschaton! flashfloods.com
