W ho A RE THE ISRAELITES
By Dr. Wesley A. Swift
Greetings Christian Americans: There are many great truths in the Scriptures
which will help you to understand the problems which we are facing nationally
and internationally in the world today. A great many of these great truths have
never been taught from the pulpits, in fact, many of the clergy have never taken
time to go into the background of archeology and anthropology to come up with
the answers.
Among these many truths which are contained in the Scriptures are the truths
that among the three great Races of the world which we have today are the
Caucasian Race, Asiatic Race and the Negroid Race. Their histories and their
backgrounds, and their points of origin are entirely different.
We are living in the day when Science, through the use of new discoveries
such as the use of Radio Carbon Dating is able to determine the time element of
many of the things which they find furniture and pieces of wood and living
matter and bones, etc.
And out of the discoveries already made by Science, well established beyond
question as to their accuracy, along with archeological evidence that some of
the Races have had peoples existing here for thousands upon thousands of years.
There have been thousands of years of Asiatic history, there are thousands of
years, of Negro history. In fact, even the White Race, the Adamic Race, has
approximately 7400 years of history, that can be confirmed with the inter
dispersion of events as it relates to other existing races.
The most significant thing is that this is not in controversy, but is
established by the content of the Scriptures, The Scriptures established the
beginning of the Adamic Race with a Special Ministry. In fact, God told Adam to
have dominion over the earth in the day when He placed him here. He told him to
have dominion over "all the beasts of the field." We do not have time
to go into all this subject today, but all "the beasts of the field"
were not in the animal kingdom, as you will remember when God told Moses on the
mountain that "none of the beasts or the men" were to place
"their hands" upon the holy mountain the day the Law was given, and of
course you and I know that animals do not have "hands" that they could
place upon the mountain.
And you remember that when Jonah was sent to Nineveh, that God told him to
tell the peoples of Nineveh that if the "men and beasts" of the city
of Nineveh would put on sackcloth and ashes, and repent of their evil doings,
and call on the Most High God to forgive them of their transgressions, and then
He would save Nineveh. And eventually, after of course, the round-about route
that Jonah took, he went to Nineveh. And it tells us that both the "beasts
and the men" put on sackcloth ' and they a] I cried out and "entreated
the Lord with prayer." Now these "beasts" are two-legged ones and
it was not an attempt to downgrade them, it was merely a distinction in their origin and
creation, for "beast kingdoms" are created beings with soul
consciousness, but do not have the "Spirit". or the "Celestial
Life" of the Most High God as their Spiritual intelligence. They are not
"begotten" in the heavens "of the Spirit."
You and as the children of God, are the offspring of the Heavenly Father,
begotten in the Spirit before the world was framed.
We are the children He foreknew and did predetermine that we were going to
conform His image in the earth.
There were creations in their various stages created here in the earth and in
other parts of the universe. Much to be said about this at other times. Even
specific groups in the earth are subject for your investigation and mine.
One of the most important subjects of course in the Scriptures is the subject
that the Book of Romans asks in a single, question, when in this passage the
Apostle Paul said, "Who are the Israelites?" Now some one would say,
"Now that's an easy question to answer." Well, maybe your minister
never answered that question-maybe it has never been discussed in your church.
But it is a most important thing that you and I know who the Israelites are. It
is just as important that you know who the Israelites are, as it is for you to
know that the Adamic Race is the White Race or to know that in the days of the
flood in Noah's time, it did not cover the "whole earth," but covered
all "that place," for the word there for "the earth" was
eratz meaning "that place." Cain uses the same word when he was driven
out of the garden and said, "I was driven off of the face of the
earth"-that's the translator's word, originally it was "eratz,"
which means "all that place."
So also we know that Noah's three sons Ham ' Shem and Seth were all White
Men, as "kind begets like kind," seed having life in itself. They were
their varied ways, some were absorbed by the processes of intermixture and
mongrelization. The Shemites, or Shemitic peoples, preserved their racial
self-respect a reason why today all the great nations of the White Race have
descended from Shem. Truly, you know, there is no more mistaken word than the
word "antiSemite"-White men are not against White men, so you would
have to be against all White men to be truly an " anti- Shemite. "
In the interest of "Who are the Israelites?" the Scriptures tell me
in the 9th Chapter of Romans, the 4th Verse, that "to them pertains the
adoption." There is a Greek word "Huiothesia," meaning
"positioning of sons" in the earth, the timing of their birth, and
their positioning of them in their family. This is a part of the fore-knowledge
in the purpose of God, and to them belongs the "Glory of God," and the
"Covenants," and "the giving of the Law," and "the
service of God," and "the Promises."
Doesn't look like there is much left in this Bible for anybody unless they
belong to this group of people known as "Israelites" because almost
the whole Book is written about them, and also all the New Testament is written
to them. They have all "the Promises," they have the "Laws of
God," they have "the Covenants of God"- they get "the Glory
of God." So in this instance I think it is most important that you and I
have an answer to this question.
This might be disturbing to a Christian if he did not also have another
statement the Apostle makes in the 3rd Chapter, in the 29th verse. He said:
"if ye are Christ's then are ye are Abraham's seed." I know you
have heard evangelists tell you simply that when a man accepts the fact that
Jesus is the Christ, that automatically makes him a Spiritual Israelite. Well
there might be some truth to that, he is an Israelite who is now Spiritually
enlightened concerning who he is and who Christ is. But let me assure you this,
the reason why he can perceive and understand is because the Spiritual Seed
within him has been quickened by the Father according to His Covenant. "if
ye be Christ's." Notice that this is a matter of possession there is a
great difference between "being Christ's," and standing on the
sidelines and believing "about Christ." It did not say "if you
believe about Christ" it said, "if ye be Christ's, then are ye
Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise,"
You know Jesus said in the Book of Matthew, "I have come for the Lost
Sheep of the House of Israel." He was talking to the Jews on Solomon's
porch and He said: "Ye believe not because ye are not my sheep, as I said
unto you." So very apparently the Jews of Jerusalem were not considered
Israelites by Jesus who said He "came for the lost sheep of the house of
Israel."
Of course, they did not accept Him and He did not say they belonged to Him.
He said: "All the Father giveth me shall come, and he that comes I will in
no wise cast out." But He said: "I am from above and ye are from
beneath," "I am from the heavens and you are of the earth."
But the children of the "House of Israel", were supposed to be
"Celestial children" whom He fore knew before the foundation of the
world," and they were "predestined" or pre-determined they would
conform to the image of the Son. "The people that He promised that "I
will be the Lamb of God, slain before the foundation of the world, to restore
you, to give you back the Eternal Life which you possessed in the Spirit, to
clothe you with "the Glory" which I started out your father Adam with.
So you who are the "children of God" after the Spirit say, "Our
Father which art in heaven." And we say, "We have our father Adam
after the flesh."
If you remember that Adam is referred to as the "First Adam"
naturally, the word "Adam" is the name for the White Race, or White
Man. The word "Enosh" in the Hebrew means "beings," and is
also translated "men." But where it is "Adam" it is talking
about the White Race. Where it is "Enosh" it is talking about BEINGS.
Christ is referred to by Paul the Apostle as the "Second Adam, and He
was the "Begotten Issue," the Incarnate Fullness of God dwelling
bodily in the earth. So also this Race with Spiritual Seed, the "Holy
Seed" that Ezra talks about, the children. of the Eternal God with whom God
made His Covenants.
And selecting one man, who in faith and determination to follow God, had
activated his faith by obedience, He called Abraham out of Ur of the land of the
Chaldees, lest his seed be integrated by the inter-mixing of the peoples of the
site of ancient Ur of the Chaldees, the city of Nimrod, God tells him to get out
of the land of Ur of the Chaldees, and then He says: "This is my covenant
with you. I Almighty God, have ordered you to walk before me, and be thou
perfect. And I am going to make my covenant between me and thee, and will
multiply thee exceedingly." And He said: "Behold, my covenant is with
thee. Thou shalt be a father of many nations." He said: in the 7th Verse,
17th Chapter of Genesis: "And I will establish my covenants between me and
thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations, for an everlasting covenant,
to be a God unto them, and to thy seed after thee. 11 And everlasting covenant
with the offspring of Abraham, the purest selected strain of the White Race, who
was to take a seed from among his people, and at no time took for himself a
"gentile" or "heathen" bride.
Frankly, all through the background of Scripture, God talks about His
covenant with Abraham, and the Old Testament is filled with it. The Book of
Jeremiah starts, in the 31st Chapter, "Behold" the days come, saith
the Lord, when I make a New Covenant with the House of Israel, and with the
House of Judah." And this is a very new covenant because He said: : "I
am going to put my Law in their inward parts. and I am going to write it in
their hearts. And I will be their God and they shall be my people."
Now, therefore, if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed and heirs
according to the promise." What "promise" is He talking about?
Why the promise He made to Abraham, which over in the 3rd chapter of Galatians,
in the 16th Verse, "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises
made." And the 15th verse said: "The law or no other covenant that
came thereafter could put a condition upon it, or disannul that promise."
If you today area White Christian ye are the seed of Abraham you are the
Israel of God. That is why you are a have nation today that is why you have
technological blessing, Divine Guidance and Leadership that is why the United
States of America, with the "two great out stretched wings of the
eagle," carries forward its mighty destination Israel nation, because
"'ye are Abraham's seed and heirs according to this promise."
