Listening to you on shortwave radio, 5.070 MHZ WWCR, recently; you stated that judgement was going to fall on America in the near future. I pretty well agree with that because of the same reasons that you gave: The Queers running the streets as if they were normal people; Babies being killed by the millions each year, and many other sins almost as horrible. However, I do have some disagreement with you. And that is concerning the antichrist Jews in Palestine.
1). Judgment is not coming all over the world, for the only people that has ever had God�s Law to be judged by it were the Israelites. �Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.� (I John 3:4) And we know that only the Israelites were ever given the Laws of God. They were not given to any other people on earth. Therefore, they cannot come under the judgment of the Laws of God.
The reason that they are going to be judged by God, is not because they broke God�s Laws, but because they are going to come against His Israel people; and God will judge them with alien people, just as He did ancient Israel with Assyria and Babylon.
Few Christians know what constitutes a "righteous nation" for they have never been taught the truth by the Judeo-Christian clergy. Most believe that a nation is the sum total of its people; what they are; what they do. Then what makes them sufficiently "righteous" to influence their nation's character, and how many of them does it take for this purpose? Where do we, in the United States, stand as measured out on this scale?
Never at any time has there been a nation composed entirely of righteous people. Not even God's people. Even during the Exodus, when the people had witnessed many miracles by the hand of God; saw His presence in the pillar of cloud and fire every day, the great mass of the people were either actively or passively unrighteous. While Moses was on Mt. Sinai, receiving the law of God, part of the nation of Israel was actively wicked, demanding that Aaron make them an idol god, the golden calf; most of the nation passively followed them into wickedness; and only Moses and the Tribe of Levi remained faithful to Almighty God.
So it has always been, the people are divided into three classes; the few good people, who are God's Righteous Remnant; the somewhat larger group who are especially evil; and the huge middle group, neither very good nor especially bad. The especially evil group would completely and permanently ruin and destroy the whole nation, if they were allowed to live very long; therefore, God has had to wipe them out, many times, in order to save anything of the nation. Think about it, the heavy loss of life on many occasions, when God had to discipline them on the Exodus; the repeated wars with the Philistines; the Assyrian conquest of Israel and the Babylonian conquest of part of Judah, etc. There was no point in trying to save them by "conversion;" they were not capable of it. Preaching to a scorpion never accomplishes anything; nor does preaching to an anti-christ.
The so-called Patriot community is constantly trying to rouse the masses to the dangers they face in the loss of weapons, freedoms, and etc. Yet we know that the majority of our people care little about being disarmed as is represented in the wars with the Philistines, when they were conquered and were not allowed a sword, spear, knife or anything sharp, including plow shares. They were not allowed to even have black-smiths to make such weapons and sharpen them, and they really didn't care.
The masses have never minded losing their freedoms as was demonstrated in the Book of Judges, and in the present day here in America and in the other Christian nations of the west. Look at Australia, England and etc., the masses are decadent and have allowed the government to confiscate their weapons. In America we are faced with the same thing, it is just taking a little longer than it did in the other countries.
The large middle group; never able to be actively good, yet only followers of evil, not originators of it, has always constituted the great bulk of the nation. Since they never rise to the greatness of true goodness, and periodically lapse into all kinds of evil, why has God kept them in existence? Only because, without them there would not be a nation. The promise was never that there would be only a few righteous persons among their descendants, but that there would be a great nation and a company of nations. Although incapable of good in itself, the nation could be God's servant under the leadership of God's Righteous Remnant. "Except the Lord of Hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like Gomorrah." (Isaiah 1:9) Then in Genesis 18:26-32, God revealed to Abraham that even a small righteous remnant in Sodom; as few as 10 persons, could have saved it.
In Old Testament time, this Righteous Remnant were singled out for special service to God. In the Hebrew language, they were called the "Qahal" a word meaning those "selected and called out" from among the mass of the nation. They included the priests; both Aaronic and Levitical, and the heads of the Tribes. It was their job to see that the whole nation was guided into the paths of righteousness so clearly marked out by the prophets. When they would and could do this, the nation reached great heights of civilization and prosperity. And the United States is the best example of this, for it was founded by Christians doing their best to do God's will. They were not perfect, but their faith reaped us a great reward; the greatest nation the world has ever known.
Oh, boy, some at this time, will be wondering, "How could the Remnant save the nation, when the Remnant themselves were so imperfect and are themselves presently under the control of Mystery Babylon?" Psalm 14:2-3 say, "The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one." Paul also quotes this in Romans 3:10-12.
Yet God has always found a way to use His remnant for His own special purpose. Eve was not sinless, yet in Genesis 3;15 God declared that the Redeemer would be one of her descendants. Abel was presumably as sinful as other men; yet we are told in Hebrews 11:14 that "By faith, Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous. God testifying of his gifts; and by it, being dead, he yet speaketh." While he was comparatively good as men go, Noah must have had his share of human faults; but we are told that "By faith, Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith." (Hebrews 11:7) Abraham also had his sins, yet "For what saith the scriptures: Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness." (Romans 4:3)
This was God's plan from the beginning; He knew that even the best of His creatures would not be able to achieve righteousness by man's own goodness; so God prepared to give them His own righteousness. In Isaiah 54:17, He says: "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord." This is the very essence of Christianity! All men have sinned; even the Remnant, and have justly earned the penalty of death; but God has paid that penalty for us in the death of Jesus Christ upon the stake; and if we believe God in this, He imputes to us the perfect righteousness of Christ. "Their righteousness is of me." The great mass of people never obtain even this; only a remnant ever did or ever will.
Isaiah 10:20‑22: "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. The Remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness."
During most of the Old Testament times, the nation Israel was nominally faithful to God; that at all times there were some apostates among them, and several times almost the entire nation lapsed into idolatry. In New Testament times, the Israel nations have been nominally Christian; yet at all times there have been relatively few who truly understood their religion and were more than nominal Christians.
Today, the "churches" are becoming only "social service" organizations, forgetting Almighty God and His Laws while they concentrate all their attention and efforts on "social problems" such as slums and integration of races, and following the dictates of those that hate Christ. Therefore, we ask the apostate Judeo-Christian clergy: "And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the Lord? (There have never been a people who have hated Almighty God and the Lord Jesus Christ more than the Jews - and you would have us to help them?) therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord." (2 Chronicles 19:2) There is little, if anything, left of Christianity but the mere name, empty of all that it originally contained as shown in the Bible. This "Churchianity" can never save even its own followers.
Yet there has always been God's Righteous Remnant in the nation; and for the sake of that Remnant God has spared the nation. So it has always been, and so it will be. "What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded." (Romans 11:7) As always before, there exists in the national the group of actively evil people, like a cancer, which must be cut out and destroyed; and the greater mass of the people who have been blinded are led astray by the evil; and the greater mass of the people who have been led astray by the false Judeo-Christian clergy and the evil ones must be severely disciplined.
Therefore, the days soon to come will bring terrific destruction and loss of life. But also there is the small Righteous Remnant, for whose sake Almighty god has always spared His people Israel from complete destruction; and for whose sake He will spare it now.
In the words of R.H. Blake, we find: �The words �righteous� and �righteousness� are used some 450 times in the Bible and a study of the references reveals that righteousness is the keyword in God�s solution to all Israel�s problems.�
What is this potent virtue which the Christian world is so slow to learn? If righteousness holds the solution to our nations problems; and if, as the prophet says, the work of righteousness is peace, and the effect of it is quietness and assurance forever, then; above all things, our turbulent and frightened Christian world needs to know m ore about it. And the sooner, the better!
Briefly, what is righteousness? The Hebrew root of the words translated �righteous� and �righteousness� means that which is just, right and normal. In the Authorized Version two Greek words are the equivalent of the word �right� and imply that which is straight, according to rule. Throughout the Gospels our Lord�s teaching is at once a demand for what is right and the source of all instruction about what constitutes righteousness.
This teaching has so permeated Judeo-Christian thinking that today our dictionaries define �righteous� as freedom �from wrong and sin;� and make �righteousness� synonymous with �holiness� and �sanctity,� with emphasis on the fact that �righteousness� connotes �unswerving correctness or conformity to the divine law.�
This is the idea of righteousness which we find also in the writings of the Old Testament prophets. They had a true concept of God�s Law and insisted that its moral aspect was vastly more important than its ceremonial. But it was not so when Christ came to Judea, nor is it correct today. He came in an era which was marked by the cessation of prophecy; it was an age of cold, calculating formalism, when the notion of righteousness had degenerated into mer external ceremonials, and the term itself had become the self-designation of the ungodly Pharisees, just as it is today.
Christ immediately set up a new standard of right and broke down the externalism of His day by emphasizing character and morality than empty forms. Righteousness, according to His standard, does not exist apart from the will of God; it demands a genuine response of the whole personality to God.
As Pastor Charles Travers Wood wrote: �It is significant in this connection that it was Christianity that created the very conception of personality, and so ultimately the word itself. Jesus Christ tells His followers that their righteousness is to be based on the eternal character to God, (Matthew 5:44-45) as uniquely revealed in human life by Himself.� (Matthew 11:27)
Righteousness is conformity tot he will of God; it is the simple �but exhaustive summary of all true life.� It is this truth which Christ conveys in the singular expression, �For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.� (Mark 3:35) By so doing one comes into close kinship with the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. It is to be understood, however, that maintaining such a relation requires absolute submission to God�s purpose, with no immunity and no reservation.
�Not only actions and words,� comments Dr. Wood, �but also thoughts, desires, and motives, are always included in its scope. (Matthew 5:22, 28) Since �right� means conformity to God�s character and will, it necessarily follows that this conformity must be absolute. Our Lord contrasts the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees (the Jews) with that which He demanded from His followers. (Matthew 5:20) His requirement was higher because of His higher conception of the character, will and claims of God. To them righteousness was nothing more than a superficial outward conformity to the Divine Law as interpreted and altered by their tradition.� (Dictionary of Christ, Vol. 2, p. 529)
The secret of attaining righteousness is found in personal union and communion with Christ, this the Jews can never do. Righteousness as presented in the New Testament is not an impersonal abstract quality, but a warm, living, loving relation with the pre-eminent Christ. It is this blessed fellowship which distinguishes the Christian faith from that of the Judeo-Christian faith and all others. �Christianity not only depicts an ideal and insists on its realization; it proclaims and provides the power to realize it, in union with Him who has Himself lived the life and fulfilled the Divine ideal, and whose grace is sufficient for all who receive it. In all that concerns �right,� the followers of Christ accept and know by experience the truths of two great statements; on of the Master, and the other of one of His Apostles: �Apart from me ye can do nothing; (John 15:5) �I can do all things in him who is empowering me.�� (Philippians 4:13)
In His teaching Christ emphasizes the supreme importance of righteousness. He encourages us to desire it when He says, �Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled;� (Matthew 5:6) and He urges us to seek it above all else in this statement, �Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.� (Matthew 6:33) Citizens of the kingdom are expected to reflect the character of the King: �Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.� (Matthew 5:48) Thus our Lord challenges us to rise to heights hitherto unknown to mankind; He dares us to do the impossible, then tells us how to overcome human limitations: �With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.� (Mark 10:27)
What, then, is the work of righteousness? �And the work of righteousness,� declares the prophet, �shall be peace.� (Isaiah 32:17) Peace is the fruit of righteousness in every phase of life, whether it be applied human relations individually or collectively as a national unit. In James 3:13-18, we are instructed as follows concerning the work of righteousness in maintaining harmony and peace among individual Christian believers: �Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.�
Mrs. Judson, in her account of the first Burman convert, illustrates the difference between inward righteousness and hypocrisy. �A few days ago,� she writes, �I was reading with him Christ�s Sermon on the Mount. He was deeply impressed, and unusually solemn. �These words,� said he, �take hold of my very heart. They make me tremble. Here God commands us to do everything that is good in secret, not to be seen of men. How unlike our religion this is! When Burmans make offerings at the pagodas, they make a great noise with drums and musical instruments, that others may see how good they are; but this religion makes the mind fear God; it makes it, of its own accord, fear sin.��
An example of the work of righteousness as applied to the larger national aspect is found in the familiar statement of Proverbs 14:34: �Righteousness exalteth a nation; but sin is a reproach to any people.�
As we have seen, righteousness is conformity to God�s will; sin, on the other hand, is rebellion against God�s will. Righteousness, therefore, lifts the individual and exalts national life; while sin debases the individual and corrupts the nation as a whole. Which is clearly evident in the current administration. We can now see clearly why there is so little peace in the world. It is because there is so little righteousness. If righteousness should prevail upon the earth, then peace would also prevail. Whatever is done to promote righteousness will also promote peace, because peace is the work; the ultimate end, of righteousness; the natural affinity of one for the other is expressed figuratively in Psalm 85:10: �Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.�
Even mercy cannot produce peace. As Julius Charles Hare wrote in one of his sermons: �If mercy allowed the sinners to abide in their sins, they would still be under the sentence which declares that there is no peace to the wicked. Christ will never give peace alone. He will only give it along with righteousness; first righteousness and then peace. Unless He had been the Lord our Righteousness, He could not have been the Prince of Peace. Therefore they who will not receive His righteousness, cannot receive His peace. To them He brings no peace, but a sword.�
It is the operation of this very truth which is causing thoughtful citizens of the United States to view with consternation the present degrading trends throughout our national life. When parents in the house do not uphold right living, order and law in the family, there will be no peace in that home; likewise, when a government does not uphold righteous standards, order and law in a nation, there will be no peace in that nation. As Hare says, �Even in heaven there can be no peace, except it be the work of righteousness.�
The character of our nation was established by leaders who had respect for the tax-paying electorate; they believe in open covenants openly arrived at; they believed that citizens were entitled to know the truth concerning both domestic and foreign commitments. Today there is a sinister rapid drift toward government by deception and secret directive. Quite recently self-respecting citizens have been shocked beyond measure by the admission of reliable that thousands of moral perverts and anti-christs are now holding important government positions. It is being proclaimed literally �upon the housetops� that these perverts are so low in their lechery and treachery that they would have been ostracized from decent society by every former generation of American citizens. What hidden hand is responsible for such debauchery in government? And to what end? Truly the end of such evil is not peace; it is a way that leads ever more quickly to destruction.
Did the prophet Ezekiel give a preview of this generation in Christian/Israel lands when he wrote his seventh chapter? �Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes (the murder of the unborn for one), and the city is full of violence. Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease (our military is rapidly being destroyed); and their holy places shall be defiled (like today in America the pulpits are filled with traitors, anti-christs, deceivers, false prophets, etc.). Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none. Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumor shall be upon rumor; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients...I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.�
It is an inescapable law in this world that men reap what they sow. Having permitted the sowing of tares in our midst, we are now reaping their bitter fruits. We are being judged for our tolerance of perfidy, lying and immorality in high places. In Proverbs 10:9, we read: �He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.�
This is another immutable law of the universe. It is closing in at last on the brazen culprits who have bartered away the liberties and the very existence of freedom-loving peoples on both hemispheres. Now they are scurrying for cover, but they will find no secure hiding place. �The lid is off,� remarked one Identity Pastor, �and it is going to stay off.�
The way of the wicked �is an abomination unto the Lord;� but the Lord �loveth him that followeth after righteousness.� Just as the individual finds his peace in accepting the gift of Christ and His righteousness, so will the nation find peace in obedience to the perfect laws which the Lord gave His people to guide them in national administration.
When discouraged over the ineptness and ruinous-traitorous blunders of leaders in the present political scene, it is a wholesome experience to pick up some old volume and refresh one�s memory as to the type of men who established the character of our Republic and guided its destiny in its formative years. Such a volume is �The Life and Public Services of Henry Clay,� as edited by Horace Greeley and published by Henry T. Coates & Company in 1852. We mention a few incidents that have a singular bearing on affairs in the United States today.
Shortly before Henry Clay�s death, the Hungarian Government, being engaged in a struggle for liberty, sent Louis Kossuth to Washington to secure material aid from the United States Government. Mr. Kossuth sought a personal interview with Mr. Clay with the hope of enlisting his sympathy. Henry Clay listened with his unfailing courtesy; then, regarding the issues involved, he replied with characteristic honesty and wisdom. Clay maintained that any intervention in the affairs of Hungary on the part of the United States would set a dangerous precedent which might very well prove disastrous to the United States, without benefitting the cause of Hungary; he concluded with these words, which were heeded at the time, and should have been heeded again by this Republic many times in this century. Clay stated: �By the policy to which we have adhered since the days of Washington, we have prospered beyond precedent; we have done more for the cause of liberty in the world than arms could effect. We have allowed to other nations the way to greatness and happiness; and, if we but continue united as one people, and persevere in the policy which our experience has so clearly and triumphantly vindicated, we may in another quarter of a century furnish an example which the reason of the world cannot resist. But if we should involve ourselves in the tangled web of European politics, in a war in which we could effect nothing, and if in that struggle Hungary should go down, and we should go down with her, where, then, would be the last hope of the friends of freedom throughout the world? Far better is it for ourselves, for Hungary, and for the cause of liberty, that, adhering to our wise, pacific system, and avoiding the distant wars of Europe, we should keep our lamp burning brightly on this western shore as a light to all nations, than to hazard its utter extinction, amid the ruins of fallen or falling republics in Europe.�
After quoting the statement above, Horace Greeley commented as follows: �This matured and deliberate expression of Mr. Clay�s views respecting the course which our Government should pursue with regard to European Politics was the last counsel which fell from his lips with respect to public affairs.�
At the time of Henry Clay�s death there were many eulogies by his colleagues in the Senate and by other illustrious friends. Among the many fine tributes to a great man, we select a paragraph which is particularly significant in its contrast to the appalling deception of today. The following paragraph is from the eulogy of John C. Breckinridge of Kentucky, when he announced the death of Henry Clay to the United States Senate: �The life of Mr. Clay, sir, is a striking example of the abiding fame which surely awaits the direct and candid statesman. The entire absence of equivocation or disguise in all his acts, was his master-key to the popular heart, for while the people will forgive the errors of a bold and open nature, he sins past forgiveness who deliberately deceives them. Hence Mr. Clay, though often defeated in his measures of policy, always secured the respect of his opponents without losing the confidence of his friends. He never paltered in a double sense. The country never was in doubt as to his opinions or his purposes. In all the contests of his time, his position on great public questions was as clear as the sun in the cloudless sky. Sir, standing by the grave of this great man, and considering these things, how contemptible does appear the mere legerdemain of politics! What a reproach is his life on that false policy which would trifle with a great and upright people. If I were to write his epitaph, I would inscribe as the highest eulogy, on the stone which shall mark his resting place, �Here lies a man who was in public service for fifty years, and never attempted to deceive his countrymen!��
What was the secret of a life so exalted in patriotism, honor and principles of righteousness? Horace Greeley tells us in two short paragraphs: �But higher themes engrossed in larger measure his time and thoughts. Mr. Clay had been through life an undoubting believer in Christian revelation, whereof his own father had lived and died a minister, while his mother and his wife were lifelong disciples. Years ago, while yet unvisited by sickness and with the prospect of a serene old age before him, Mr. Clay had united with the Protestant Episcopal Church at Lexington, and had ever since enjoyed its communion. The chaplain of the Senate, Rev. C.M. Butler, was a minister of that church as well as a personal friend of Mr. Clay, and spent much of the winter at the bedside of the dying man.
Mr. Clay�s piety was humble and self-distrustful, but his faith was firm and unclouded; and, though his sufferings were severe and protracted, he was resigned to their infliction as the salutary discipline of a spirit which, in bygone years, had contemplated too fondly and engrossingly the fleeting vanities of earth. No hovel, no hospital, enclosed a Christian soul preparing to bid adieu to its tenement of flesh in more entire renunciation of self-righteousness, in more exclusive reliance on the mercy manifested through the world�s Redeemer, than that of Henry Clay.�
A statement along the same line in the address by Mr. Breckinridge, from which we quoted above, is most interesting. Note how the Senator from Kentucky revealed his own Christian faith when he said of Mr. Clay: �Not long before his death, having just returned from Kentucky, I bore to him a token of affection from his excellent wife. Never can I forget his appearance, his manner, or his words. After speaking of his family, his friends, and his country, he changed the conversation to his own future, and looking on me with his fine eye undimmed, and his voice full of its original compass and melody, he said, �I am not afraid to die sir. I have hope, faith and some confidence. I do not think any man can be entirely certain in regard to his future state, but I have an abiding trust in the merits and mediation of our Savior.� It will assuage the grief of his family to know that he looked hopefully beyond the tomb, and a Christian people will rejoice to hear that such a man in his last hours reposed with simplicity and confidence on the promises of the Gospel.�
Finally, what is the effect of righteousness? The answer is written in those blessed words of Isaiah 32:17-18: �And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.�
There, indeed, lies the solution to all our countries problems. Will we miss the answer because of the apparent simplicity of the requirements? Yet righteousness is no simple matter to attain, for it involves the human equation of man�s response to God�s perfect will. Furthermore, this response must come from the people as a whole; it demands the cleansing of the nation. The full effect of righteousness will never be known if it is confined to the inner lives of a few consecrated persons; it is only when the vision comes on a national scale that the promises become a reality. National repentance is essential to national peace and security. Note the call to the nation in Ezekiel 18:30-32: �Therefore I judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.�
If the citizens of Christian/Israel America, who claim to be the Lord�s people, will answer God�s call to repentance with humble and contrite hearts, they will come immediately under the glorious promises of Isaiah 41:10-14: �Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought. For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.�
In this way alone lies our hope of survival and peace. In this way only will the weary earth come to know the effect of righteousness. For our God has promised: �If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attend unto the prayer that is made in this place. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.� (2 Chronicles 7:14‑16)
2). God is going to judge America, not only for breaking His Laws, Statues, and Ordinances, but because they have been supporting the anti-christ Jews in the country known today as Israel. Now I know right here is where you will throw this away, because you know that the Jews in Israel are not Israelites, and you will not want to be confused with the truth. However, just in case you are really a truth seeker, I will prove to you that the Jews of the world today are not Israelites, but are the decedents of the Khazars of Russia, of the mixbreeds of Esau and his Canaanite wives, Judah and his Canaanite wife.
������������������������������������������������� Who Are The Pharisees and Are The "Jews" Israel?
The children of the promise are the literal descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whereas the children of the flesh are children from other unions such as the descendants of Ishmael and Esau. It also dealt with the genealogies of Christ and the Pharisees and it was concluded that the Pharisees at the time of Christ, like Ishmael and Esau, while of the seed of Abraham, were not children of the promise.
That this is so is proven by the statement of the High Pirest of the scribes and Pharisees:�And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he(Christ) should gather together in one the children of God that� (the tribes of Israelites) were scattered abroad.� (John 11:49‑52)
If the Pharisees, who are, today, called Jews, were not children of the promise, who then is a Jew and who is an Israelite? We will save the subject of Israelites for another publication and just deal with Pharisees and Jews. However, this story begins with Abraham, who had eight children: Isaac from Sarah; Ishmael from the handmaiden Hagar; and six other from Keturah. Of all these children only one child became the child of the promise and that was Isaac. Isaac only had two children: twin boys named Esau and Jacob.
But again, only one child was the child of the promise and that was Jacob. Later God would change his name to Israel. Jacob/Israel had twelve sons from two wives and two handmaidens and each of these sons, as descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, became children of the promise. (Genesis 38) At this time we are only interested in one of those sons named Judah. Judah had five sons, two of whom God killed, but only two of the remaining three were children of the promise. Throughout Biblical history there have been numerous conflicts between the children of the flesh born in juxtaposition to children of the promise, and some are listed below:
Abel vs. Cain;
Shem vs. Ham (Canaan);
Isaac vs. Ishmael;
Israel vs. Moabites/Ammonites (Lot's children);
Jacob vs. Esau/Edomites;
Israel vs. Amalakites, and
Pharez and Zerah vs. Shelahites.
These conflicts between the children of the Promise and the children of the Flesh are later described in Scripture as being conflicts between the good seed and the tares. Scripture records a strange story in the events surrounding the births of each of these children. Without getting into a lengthy discussion, Cain and Abel were born subsequent to the fall and of course Cain slew Abel; Canaanites were cursed because Ham uncovered the nakedness of his father, yet Noah cursed Canaan - not Ham; Moabites/Ammonites due to an incestuous relationship between Lot and his two daughters; Esau is recorded as fighting with his twin brother Jacob in the womb of his mother; Amalakites {of Esau} from the relationship between a concubine and Esau's son born of Esau's Hittite wife; and Shelah born of a Canaanite wife of Judah.
The Shelah Connection
To understand that the Pharisees at the time of Christ and those of Jewry in the 20th century are at least partial descendants of the children of the flesh, we must go back and begin with Judah, Jacob's 4th son of Leah and his descendants. The story of Judah's marriage and descendants is recorded in Genesis, Chapter 38.
Genesis, Chapter 37 ends with Joseph being sold into Egypt and the story of Joseph starts again in Chapter 39. It is both interesting and strange that Chapter 38 should be placed at this particular place in the Scriptures about a subject totally unrelated to the former and latter chapters.
We are told in verse 1 that Judah "went down from his brethren." This appears to have been an act of poor judgement such as later Dinah exhibited and was raped due to her poor judgement. We are not told the reason for Judah's poor judgement but it begins the history of conflict between Judah and his brothers which will continue till the later separation of the nation into the House of Israel and the House of Judah. Judah, being separated from his family ties, could and did fall prey to the women in the land who were not his kinsmen according to the flesh. We are told that Judah: "...saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her." (Genesis 38:2)
This connection was contrary to the will of God and Judah should have known better from his upbringing if not� the example of his fathers. His indiscretion or poor judgement in forming an alliance with the people in the land was a crime that produced bastard children.
If this bastardization of Israel were to continue the chosen people would soon be assimilated into surrounding heathenism and would no longer be God's chosen people. Thus we see the necessity for God to separate His people from these heathen peoples.
In any event Judah took a Canaanite for a wife and had three bastard sons {sons born from mixed seed}: Er, Onan, and Shelah. We say bastard sons because in the Old Testament a bastard was a child born from a mixed marriage with an Israelite and another race. (See Strong's Concordance) When the time came that Er, Judah's eldest son, was to have a wife, Judah obtained for him a woman named Tamar.
We are not told how or why, but Er was "wicked in the sight of the Lord" (Genesis 38:7) and the Lord slew him. We are not told what this wickedness was but the word used here also means evil and mischief and these definitions lead many to believe this evil had something to do with the law. Being raised by his Canaanite mother, he would have become indoctrinated in the ways of the pagan Canaanites - not the ways of the Lord.
According to the law, Onan, Er's younger brother, had to marry Tamar and raise up seed to his elder brother, Er. However, Onan was wicked also, and refused to do this, spilling his seed on the ground. (Genesis 38:9) This was probably because of the threat of losing the inheritance {that is, he would be raising up seed for his brother}, again, possibly from the training he received from his Canaanite mother. In any event, God also slew Onan. Once again, according to the law Tamar should have been given to the third son, Shelah, that he might raise up sons for his elder brother. However, by this time Judah must have been just a little bit concerned. After all, Tamar had already been the wife of two of his sons and both had been killed by the Lord. Thus it is easy to understand his reluctance. Scripture tells us that Judah told Tamar to wait until Shelah was older; however, when he got older Judah failed or refused to give Tamar to Shelah. Tamar waited and waited but Shelah eventually took another for a wife, apparently with his father's blessing.
It is recorded in the 45th� chapter of the book of Jasher that Tamar was a daughter from the genealogy of Elam, the son of Shem. That she was a daughter of Shem makes sense in view of what Judah said when he found out she was pregnant with child. Scripture records that it was reported to Judah that: "Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt." (Genesis 38:24)
Stoning was the normal mode of capital punishment at that time in history - death by fire was not the normal procedure used to execute someone. Therefore it is significant that Judah pronounced death by burning for that was reserved for priests' daughters who brought disgrace upon the sacred office. The law states: "And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire." (Leviticus 21:9) Since Judah pronounced death by fire we are able to conclude that she must have been the daughter of a priest. However, one would think that if she was, she should be aware of the law prohibiting mixed marriages. But perhaps that was not the case.
Tamar could have been imported from another geographical area as was Rebecca for Isaac. Thus at the time of her arrival and marriage to Er and Onan she could have been unaware of the covenant God had made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel.
Not being aware of the covenant she would not know that the two men she married were half Canaanite and half Israelite and not legitimate heirs to the promise. By the time Shelah had taken another wife, Tamar was probably educated in the covenant relationship with God and realized that even if she was given to Shelah, any sons from that union would not produce a bloodline heir.
This is about the only logical reason for her to play the harlot, entrapping Judah to become the father of her children (Pharez and Zerah) at the risk of being put to fiery death. It would also partially explain Judah's response when he found out that he was the father and stated: "She is more righteous than I; forasmuch as I gave her not to Shelah my son." (Genesis 38:26)
Although Judah may not have totally understood or admitted that his marriage to a Canaanite was in violation of the law, he is, at least, acknowledging that Tamar should have been the mother of children of the birthright. He must have understood this birthright problem sooner or later, as the scepter was not passed to Shelah, Judah's third and only surviving son from Shuah, but to Judah's firstborn son from Tamar who was named Pharez. This is evidenced by the fact that Pharez's name appears in the genealogies of Christ in Matthew 1:3 and Luke 3:23.
The union of Judah with Tamar produced the twin births of Pharez and Zerah, and once again Judah had three sons: 1). Shelah, who was a bastard {1/2 Canaanite & � of Judah} by his Canaanite wife; 2). Pharez; and 3). Zerah, the latter two both from Tamar. Pharez and Zerah being the sons of Judah, the son of Jacob/Israel, and Tamar the daughter of the genealogy of Shem, were full-blooded Israelites even though they were born out of wedlock. The whole story is recorded in Genesis 38. These births produced three descendant lines from Judah which will be called Pharez-Judah, Zerah-Judah, and Shelah-Judah.
The question now becomes, what happened to the three descendants of Judah: Pharez, Zerah and Shelah? It will simply be stated at this point in the study that Pharez and Zerah were children of the promise whereas Shelah was a child of the flesh and destined to become the father of the Pharisees. This study will not be concerned with Pharez and Zerah - only the family of Shelah will be addressed.
������������������������������������������������������������������������������ Shelah-Judah
We need to keep in mind the fact that a strict genealogy was kept on each tribe. Even though Shelah was a bastard son of Judah, his genealogy is given in Scripture and his descendants can be traced to the city of Elath. In Chronicles it is recorded: "The sons of Judah; Er, and Onan, and Shelah: which three were born unto him of the daughter of Shua the Canaanite. And Er, the firstborn of Judah, was evil in the sight of the LORD; and he slew him. And Tamar his daughter in law bare him Pharez and Zerah. All the sons of Judah were five. The sons of Pharez; Hezron, and Hamul. And the sons of Zerah; Zimri, and Ethan, and Heman, and Calcol, and Dara: five of them in all. And the sons of Carmi; Achar, the troubler of Israel, who transgressed in the thing accursed. And the sons of Ethan; Azariah." (1 Chronicles 2:3-7)
Verse 3 is unusual, as once a name is dropped from the promised seed line it usually does not appear in later genealogies. For example the descendants of Cain do not appear in the genealogies of Adam in Genesis, Chapter 5, or Matthew 1 or Luke 3.
It is difficult to determine exactly when the Book of Chronicles was written, however verse 1 of chapter 9 states: "So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; and, behold, they were written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah, who were carried away to Babylon for their transgression." (1 Chronicles 9:1) Since the first 8 chapters deal with the genealogies of Adam to this statement in verse 1 of chapter 9, which refers to the Babylonian captivity, it seems apparent that this portion of Chronicles was not recorded until sometime after the Babylonian captivity (600 B.C.) - perhaps by Ezra or Nehemiah. Again, all of Judah's sons must be important or they would not be recorded in Scripture, especially since the descendants of Shelah were not children of the promise.
It should be noted that verses 5 and 6 list the descendants of Pharez and Zerah, and verse 8 begins with Ethan, a son of Zerah. What is missing here are the sons of Shelah. But verse 7 seems to be completely out of place as it lists the genealogy of a person named "Carmi."
Carmi is not one of the five sons of Judah, nor is he listed in the Genealogies of Pharez or Zerah. The name also appears in 1 Chronicles 4:1, but it is still unclear whose son he was. However, it is most interesting that his son "Achar" is referred to as "the troubler of Israel, who transgressed in the thing accursed." {You can read the story about the thing accursed in Joshua 6:18} While it appears impossible to prove it, it is suggested that "Carmi" and his son "Achar," the troubler of Israel, were in the genealogy of Shelah.
We mentioned that these names were also listed in Chronicles, chapter 4, as follows: "The sons of Shelah the son of Judah were, Er the father of Lecah, and Laadah the father of Maresbah, and the families of the house of them that wrought fine linen, of the house of Ashbea, And Jokim, and the men of Chozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubilehem. And these are ancient things. These were the potters, and those that dwelt among plants and hedges; thee they dwell with the king for his work." (1 Chronicles 4:21-23)
Again there is no mention of "Carmi" nor his son "Achar," but her we do have a reference to these descendants of Shelah being "men of Chozeba." Chozeba was a town in southwestern Judah and is also the town of Chezib of Genesis 38:5 and Achzib of Joshua 15:44.
The words Chezib, Achzib or Chozeba mean "lying," "deceptive," "disappointing," or "failing." It is also interesting that Shelah-Judah was born in Chezib (Genesis 38:5) and it appears that his descendants centuries later inherited this same city. In Joshua we find that: "This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the utter most part of the south coast. And Keilab, and Achzib, and Mareshah; nine cities with their villages." (Joshua 15:1, 44)
Thus we see that the town of "Achzib" was given to some descendants of Judah. Achzib or Chozeba was located in the valley of Elath. Elath was in Old Edom in the valley of Elath and north of Adullum.
The word "Adullum" should ring a bell as that was the place where Judah went down from his brothers and took a Canaanite for a wife. This was on the extreme southern border of the Southern Kingdom of Judah at the northern end of the Gulf of Aquabah. In fact most scholars seem to be in agreement that this area was actually outside the land inherited by Judah. This would make some sense as we know that a bastard could not even enter the congregation, even unto the tenth generation; (Deuteronomy 23:2) therefore it would also make sense that these Shelahites, being bastards, could not inherit land belonging to the children of the promise. But this does not mean that they could not be given land on the southern border of Judah.
The city of Elath was next to Ezion-geber, which would later become Solomon's seaport. Remember now that these Shelahites are � Canaanite, and the word Canaanite is defined in Strong's Concordance as merchants and traders. Doesn't it seem logical that merchants and traders would congregate in the cities, and especially in and around a busy seaport where they could engage in trade, commerce, and industry? There is another reference to this city named "Achzib" in the Book of Micah where it states: "The house of Achzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel." (Micah 1:14)
Is it just a coincidence that Shelah was born at "Chezib" which is basically the same word as Achzib? Is it coincidence that the word "Achzib" so closely resembles and has the same meaning as "Achar," the troubler of Israel? Remember these words mean "lying," "deceptive," "disappointing," or "falling." Was it not a lie that Shelah was a true child of the promise? Would not their existence next to and/or as a part of Israel make any claim they would make as being a descendant of Abraham, (John 8) entitled to receive the promises, a lie or at the least a clever deception?
Jews From Elath
Elath or Eloth was a part of the land of Edom belonging to the descendants of Esau who were called Edomites an later Idumeans. Apparently Elath and Ezion-geber came under the control of Israel in 1040 B.C. by David's conquest of Edom as recorded in 2 Samuel 8:13-14.
This land is also mentioned as being under the rule of Solomon in approximately 1000 B.C. (1 Kings 9:26 and 2 Chronicles 8:17) The land passed back into Edomite control in 890 B.C. during the days of Jehoarm, king of Judah. (2 Kings 8:20-22) 80 years later in 810 B.C., the city of Elath was rebuilt under the kingship of Azariah or Uszziah. (2 Kings 14:21-22 and 2 Chronicles 26:1-2)
This historical background brings us to the time of the "Jews from Elath" as recorded in 2 Kings, Chapter 16, which states: "In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign. Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war; and they besieged Ahaz, but could over come him. At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave the Jews from Elath..." (2 Kings 16:1, 5-6)
Keep in mind that the time frame is approximately 750 B.C., which is around 200 years after the split of Israel into the Houses of Judah and Israel in 975 B.C., and just before the beginning of the Assyrian captivity in 721-745 B.C. By this time Jotham was the king of Judah {the two southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin}, and Pekah was the king of Israel {the 10 northern tribes}.
It is the king of Syria, and Pekah, the king of Israel {not Judah}, who formed an alliance and went� to war against the House of Judah. During that war they were unable to take Jerusalem, but Rezin, king of Syria, was able to recover the city of Elath and "drave the Jews from Elath."
As previously stated, Elath was far south of the area inherited by Judah and was given to Shelah as an inheritance. Again this was probably done because as a bastard, he could not enter the congregation of Israel nor inherit with the children of Israel.
Remember, these people were part Canaanite, and in Strong's Concordance the word "Canaanite" means merchants and traders. Merchants cannot be merchants except in populated areas and therefore would have a propensity to migrate towards the cities, so it is logical to conclude that they were the ones who resided in Elath and were driven there-from.
It was from this area called Elath, and this area alone, that Rezin "drave the Jews." Ahaz, king of Judah {Southern Kingdom}, was still in Jerusalem and was never defeated nor was he driven anywhere. Pekah, king of Israel {Northern Kingdom}, apparently returned home.
Therefore, whatever "Jews" were driven from Elath were only a small portion of people located South of Judah - not all of the House of Judah, and none of the House of Israel. Therefore, the word "Jews," as used in this verse does not include any people from the House of Israel and probably none from the House of Judah. This limits the use of the word "Jew" in the Old Testament to a very small group of people who resided in the town of Elath, who were most likely descendants of Shelah.
Scripture does not tell us where these so-called "Jews from Elath" went after being driven from Elath, but being traders and merchants they would be city dwellers, and it is probably safe to assume that they moved north to the walled city of Jerusalem. After Rezin "drave the Jews" from Elath the area was again populated but this time by Edomites. The encyclopedia fails to point out who these people were but it has previously been shown that the land South of Judah was occupied by the Shelah branch of Judah - a bastard son from his Canaanite wife.
According to Biblical scholar Alexander Schiffner: "The first reference to any Jews in Scripture is found in 2 Kings 16:6. The name was applied to a remnant of Judah's descendants of the Shelah branch. Shelah-Judah was born in Chezib (Genesis 38:5) and his descendants centuries later inherited his territory. (Joshua 15:1, 13, 44) Remember a strict genealogy was kept of each tribe and branch. (2 Kings 16:5-7; 1 Chronicles 2:1-15; Ezra 2:59, 62, 64; Matthew 1:1-25; Luke 3:23-38) Chezib, (Genesis 38:5) Achzib (Joshua 15:44) and Chozeba (1 Chronicles 4:21-22) refer to one and the same place. It was a town in the lowlands of western Judah and was given to the Shelah branch of Judah for their inheritance.� (Joshua 15:1, 13, 44)
This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families.' The word Chezib, Achzh or Chozeba means 'deceptive' or 'failing' and the place received its name from a winter spring or brook, which failed in the summer heat. {Symbolic of the failing of the Shela branch of Judah under trial}. It was the place where Judah was at the time of the birth of his half-breed son, Shelah. (Genesis 38:5)
In 1 Chronicles 4:21-22 it is called 'Chozeba.' it is in the valley of Elath and north of Addulum. Note 2 Kings 16:6 - the first reference to this branch of Judah; 'the Jews of Elath.' The Jews are the remnant' of 'Yehudim' of Judah. This branch of Judah rejected Christ. They are the open witness, 'The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; their tongue and their doings are against the Lord - they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not.' (Isaiah 3:8-9)." (From the Five Sons of Judah, written by Alexander Schiffner, editor, Prophetic Herald, Spokane, WA)
James Fox, the author of several books, wrote of Shelah: "The reason for the divergence of facial appearance between the true Hebrew or Abrahamic White-Race Men, and the Jews, is that the patriarch Judah disobeyed God's will at the outset by marrying a Canaanitish woman called 'Shua,' (Genesis 38:1-5) producing descendants all half-castes, later known as 'Jews.'" (The Glorious Majesty of His Kingdom, J.S. Fox, 1 st ed., 1958, p. 10) According to these authors, the "Jews of Elath" were the "remnant" of "Yehudim" of Judah, and verses 5 and 6 of 2 Kings, chapter 16, are the first reference to the mongrel Canaanite branch of Judah where they are referred to as "Jews" {actually "Ieue," etc., in the 1611 KJA Version}.
The use of the word "Jews" in 2 Kings 16:6 rather than "Ieues" has added to the misconception that the Jews are all of Israel, when it is obvious that in this verse only a small group of people were implied - those living in Elath - which omits the entire northern ten tribes and the majority of the House of Judah.
The major problem with the Jew in Anytown USA's conversations is that the word carries so many definitions and so few seem very want to know fully what he is really talking about or referring to when he uses the term "Jew." Most so-called (c)hristians of today, even those who are of Israelite stock, and are not aware of it, don't want to hear the words, concepts and truth contained in this study. Those of Israelite heritage may find some fulfillment in Jeremiah's words, found in Chapter 5:30-31 which sound all too familiar: "A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so; and what will ye do in the end thereof?"
Some think that the King James Version is the only correct version. This version was written in 1611, but it for sure contains some errors. Look at John 4:22, where Christ tells the woman of Samari: "Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship; for salvation is of the Jews."
This is a primary script for the problem we face today, for any discerning true Christian Israelite should see this is not a true statement, but rather a false one based on its own merits.� Any Christian should realize the truth that salvation does not come through any religion or any race of people, but through Jesus the Christ.
��������������������������������������������������������������������� There Is No Jewish Race!
"The Jews As A Race: The findings of physical anthropology show that, contrary to popular view, there is no Jewish race. Anthropometric measurements of Jewish groups in many parts of the world indicate that they differ greatly from one another with respect to all the important physical characteristics." (The Encyclopedia Britannica (1973), Vol. 12, p. 1054)
The reason for this, is mixed blood lines through the mixed marriages, which brings about the most mixed racial origins of these people today. On top of that, the majority of the so-called Jews of the world today, are not Jews at all (Revelation 2:9; 3:9) (even with their mixed blood), because their ancestry is that of the Khazars, whose ancestors accepted Judaism about 700-740 A.D., and thus became known as Jews.
The Encyclopedia Judaica Jerusalem, under the heading of "Anthropology, Physical:" "It is a common assumption, and one that sometimes seems ineradicable even in the face of evidence to the contrary, that the Jews of today constitute a race, a homogeneous entity easily recognizable. From the preceding discussion of the origin and early history of the Jews, it should be clear that in the course of their formation as people and a nation they had already assimilated a variety of racial strains from people moving into the general area they occupied. This had taken place by interbreeding and they by conversion to Judaism of a considerable number of communities...
Thus, the diversity of the racial and genetic attributes of various Jewish racial classification of them a contradiction in terms. Despite this, many people readily accept the notion that they are a distinct race. This is probably reinforced by the fact that some Jews are recognizable different in appearance from the surrounding population. That many cannot be easily identified is overlooked and the stereotype for some is extended to all, a not uncommon phenomenon." (Encyclopedia Judaica Jerusalem, (1971), Vol. 3, p. 50)
Perhaps, now, it can be understood why The World Book encyclopedia by the following states: "The Jews were once a sub-type of the Mediterranean race, but they have mixed with other peoples until The Name Jew Ha s Lost All Racial Meaning."
Being a Jew has nothing to do with race: Marilyn Monroe became a Jew; Sammy Davis became a Jew; Elizabeth Taylor became a Jew when she married Eddie Fisher, in June of 1991; Tom Rnold and Roseanne Barr, the TV entertainer, renewed publicly their wedding vows, and he was celebrating his conversion to Judaism; Opra Winfry, the celebrated talk show host, converted to Judaism.
This is just a short list of many that have converted to Judaism, and who are famous personalities. Therefore, one can easily see, if they are willing to accept the truth; a Jew can be of different races, just as one can be a Catholic, Protestant, Buddhist, Hindu, Moslem and they can be of any race of color.
In the country known as Israel today, they have a law which states what the Israeli government accepts as a Jew: "In 1970 the Israeli Knesset adopted legislation defining a Jew as one born of a Jewish mother or a convert." (Funk and Wagnall's New Encyclopedia, Vol. 3, p. 50) David Ben Gurion said: "A Jew is anyone who says they are." Therefore, it is very clear that anyone can be a convert to Judaism, and it does not depend upon what race he/she belongs to, we are not talking about a "race" of people when we talk about the Jews, we are talking about a people.
In May of 1991 the government of Israel airlifted 14,087 "Jews" from Ethiopia. Months earlier others of them had been brought to Israel. These were black people who called themselves, "Beta Israel" (House of Israel) "whose ancestors had intermarried with the natives, as the black skin of the modern Falashes indicates." These are black people, very unlike most of the other people in Israel today. They are like the Jews of North Africa, the Jews of Jemen, the Jews of Persia, the Jews in India, the Jews of China, the Jews in the Pacific Islands, the Jews of Japan, the Jews of the Philippines, the Jews of the Dutch East Indies, the Jews of New Zealand and the Jews of Latin America, in that they are different nationalities, from different races, and yet are known as "Jews."
So it is clear for all to see: The so-called Jews of today are not a race of people, but a people of mixed races and ancestry whose common tie is what is known as Judaism!
The Ferrar Fenton version, which comes from the original Greek text, says: "salvation comes from among the Judeans." Now which way should we Israelites come to know fully the truth of this verse? If Christ came out of the region of Judea and the Hebrew tribe of Judah, then HE is the way, the truth and the life. (John 14:6) Paul planted the first Christian Church in Corinth, teaching that Christ is the Salvation for HIS people. But we hear the resounding common statement, but Pontius Pilate said that He was "King of the Jews."
But did he really say that as most, deceived, Judeo-Christians believe? There are some who say, "Thank God! My Savior Was Not A Jew!," that there is a historical record found in the Achoko Volume in the Congressional Library in Washington, D.C., containing an official record of one of Pilate's correspondences. He states on pages 137-139: "The Archoko record gives an eye-witness account from Pontius Pilate, who testified that Jesus did not look like, or act like a Jew. Here is the account as it appears in this official record: To Tiberius Caesar, Emperor of Rome Noble Sovereign, Greetings: '...Among various rumors that came to my ears there was one in particular that came to my attention. A young man it was said, had appeared in Galilee, preaching with noble unction a new law in the name of the God who sent him. At first I was apprehensive that his design was to stir up the people against the Romans, but my fears were soon dispelled.
Jesus of Nazareth spoke rather as a friend of the Romans than of the Jews. One day in passing by the place of Siloe, where there was a great concourse of people, I observed in the midst of the group a young man who was leaning against a tree, calmly addressing the multitude. I was told it was Jesus. This I could easily have suspected, so great was the difference between him and those who listened to him. His golden colored hair and beard gave to his appearance an almost celestial aspect. He appeared to be about thirty years of age. Never have I seen a sweeter or more serene countenance. What a contrast between he and his hearers with their black beards and tawny complexions!...
Never have I heard in the words of the philosopher, anything that can compare with the maxims of Jesus. One of the rebellious Jews, so numerous in Jerusalem, asked Jesus if it was lawful to give tribute to Caesar, he replied: 'Render unto Caesar the things which belong to Caesar, and unto God the things which are God's...wrote to Jesus requesting an interview with him at the praetorium and he came.' (Think now for a moment on your own, without having some Judeo-Christian preacher tell you that this is fantasy. What would be so strange in this? Even though this meeting is not recorded in the Gospels, we know that most of what Christ did during His three years of public ministry was never recorded). (See John 21:25)
Pilate's report to Caesar continues: 'You know that in my veins flows the Spanish mixed with Roman blood... When the Nazarene made his appearance, I was walking in my basilic, and my feet seemed fastened with an iron hand to the marble pavement, and I trembled in every limb as does a guilty culprit, though the Nazarene was as calm as innocence itself. When he came up to me and stopped, and by a signal sign seemed to say to me, 'I am here!' though he spoke not a word. For some time I contemplated with admiration and awe, this extraordinary type of man, a type unknown to our numerous painter...There was nothing about him that was repelling in its character and I felt awed and tremulous to approach him.
Jesus, I said to him at last, 'Jesus of Nazareth, for the last three years I have granted you ample freedom of speech (It is not recorded anywhere, either in the Gospels, or Roman historical records, that the Romans ever attempted to suppress Christ's ministry) nor do I regret it. Your words are those of a sage. I know not whether you have read Socrates or Plato, but this I know, there is in your discourse a majestic simplicity that elevates you above those philosophers...'your blood shall not be spilled,' I said, with deep emotion, 'you are more precious in my estimation on account of your wisdom than all the turbulent and proud Pharisees who abuse the freedoms granted them by Rome. They conspire against Caesar, and convert his bounty into fear, impressing on the unlearned, that Caesar is a tyrant who seeks their ruin...I will protect you against them. My praetorium shall be an asylum both day and night.' I am our obedient servant, Pontius Pilate."
But, think for yourself! Doesn't it make sense to you that the Jews would try and suppress this truth? The insidious forces of the Jews working from within and opposed to all our great traditions are the first and most serious challenge that faces America. There are those who seek to corrupt our youth that they may rule over them, as witnessed by their actions for the past several decades. They are seeking to destroy our unity by stirring up antagonism among the various Christian denominations.
They, in one way or another, intrude their stooges into many of our highest military and executive offices, the present William Clinton is a perfect example - he has appointed more Jews to office than all of his predecessors combined. Effective in any evil purposes is the current menace of censorship, unnoticed by the general public, and the greater threatened menace of a far more drastic censorship imposed under the name of "Hate Laws."
Throughout history members of an unassimilated minority have repeatedly been used as individual spies, as when the Parthians used Jews in Rome as spies while the Romans used Jews in Parthia for the same purpose. In stances of espionage, involving the theft of atomic secrets from both Canada and the United States, but those pail in comparison to the espionage which has occurred since that time.
According to "A History of Palestine from 135 A.D. to Modern Times," by James Parkes, Oxford University Press, New York, 1909, Persians in 614 A.D. invaded Palestine, a part of the Christian Roman Empire of the East, and took Jerusalem.
Mr. Parkes relates: "There is no doubt that the...Jews aided the Persians with all the men they could muster, and that the help they gave was considerable. Once Jerusalem was in Persian hands a terrible massacre of Christians took place, and the Jews are accused of having taken the lead in this massacre." (A History of Palestine from 135 A.D. to Modern Times, p. 81)
Another famous betrayal of a country by its Jewish minority took place in Spain. In his "History of the Jews," Vol. III, p. 109, Professor Graetz gives an account of the coming of alien conquerors into Spain, a country which had been organized by the Visigoths, a race closely akin in blood to the English, Swedes, Germans and other peoples of the North Sea area, and well they might because they were part of the True Tribes of Israel.
"The Jews of Africa, who at various times had emigrated thither from Spain, and their unlucky co-religionists of the Peninsula, made common cause with the Mohametan conqueror, Tarik, who brought over from Africa into Andalusia an army eager for the fray. After the Battle of Xeres (July, 711 A.D.), and the death of Frederic, the last of the Visigothic kings, the victorious Arabs pushed onward, and were everywhere supported by the Jews. In every city that they conquered, the Moslem generals were able to leave but a small garrison of their own troops, as they had need of every man for the subjection of the country; they therefore confided them to the safekeeping of the Jews.
In this manner the Jews, who but lately had been serfs, now became the masters of the towns of Cordova, Grenada, Malaga, and many others. When Tarik appeared before the capital, Toledo, he found it occupied by a small garrison only, the nobles and clergy having found safety in flight. While the Christians were in church, praying for the safety of their country and religion the Jews flung open the gates to the victorious Arabs (Palm Sunday, 712), receiving them with acclamations, and thus avenged themselves for the many miseries which had befallen them in the course of a century since the time of Reccared and Sisebut. The capital also was entrusted by Tarik to the custody of the Jews, while he pushed on in pursuit of the cowardly Visigoths, who had sought safety in flight, for the purpose of recovering from them the treasure which they had carried off. Finally, when Musa Ibn-Nosair, the Governor of Africa, brought a second army into Spain and conquered other cities he also delivered them into the custody of the Jews."
The "miseries" which the Jews of Spain used as a reason to commit treason are explained by Professor Graetz. King Sisebut was annoyingly determined to convert them to Christianity, and among the "miseries" inflicted by King Reccared; "the most oppressive of all was the restraint to the possession of slaves. Henceforward the Jews were neither to purchase Christian slaves nor to accept them as presents." (History of the Jew, Vol. III, p. 46)
The newly Christianized East German Goths of Spain were noted for their chastity, piety, and tolerance, (Encyclopedia Britannia, Vol. X, p. 551) but the later quality apparently was not inclusive enough to allow the wealthy alien minority to own the coveted bodies of fair-haired girls and young men.
There is a lesson for America in the solicitude of the Visigoths for their young people. Americans of native stock should rouse themselves from their lethargic indifference and should study the set-up which permits the enslavement of young people's minds by forces hostile to Western Christian civilization.
Our boys and girls are propagandized constantly by books, periodicals, magazines, movies, television, radio and advertisements; and from some of the things that they read and see and hear they are influenced toward a degraded standard of personal conduct, an indifference to the traditional doctrines of Christianity, and a sympathy for Marxism or Communism. Which is witnessed by the glee the Jews regard this "revolution" of morals: "The Jews welcome this revolution in the Christian world...It is not an accident that Judaism gave birth to Marxism, and it is not an accident that the Jews readily took up Marxism: all this was in perfect accord with the progress of Judaism and the Jews." (A Program for the Jews and Humanity, by Rabbi Harry Waton, p. 148)
American parents must evolve and make successful a positive, not a negative, counter-movement in favor of the mores of Western civilization, or that civilization will fall. It is well known that the Communists expend their greatest effort at capturing the young; but in this most vital of all fields those Americans who are presumably anti-Communist have, made so little effort that it may well be described as none at all.
Since President Franklin Roosevelt's recognition of the Soviet masters of Russia (November 16, 1933), the United States has consistently helped to "wound itself" by catering to the "insidious forces working from within," who are "opposed to all our great traditions" of Christian civilization.
These powerful "forces" have been welcomed to our shores, they have become rich and influential, and nothing has been expected of them beyond a pro-American patriotism, which they have never given, rather than a hostile nationalist separatism. In spite of all the kindnesses, the Jews have received, they have, however, stubbornly adhered to their purposes and have indeed "gravely weakened the structure and tone of our American way of life." But the wealth of our land and the vitality of our people have been so great that the trap has not yet been finally sprung; the noose has not yet been fatally drawn.
Despite the hostile aliens who exert such tremendous power in Washington; despite the aid and succor given them by uninformed, hired, or subverted persons of native stock, and the so-called Judeo-Christian traitors who fill America's pulpits; despite the work of the "romantics, bums, and enemy agents" who have directed our foreign policy in recent years, there is a chance for the survival of America. A great country can be conquered only if it is inwardly rotten. We can still be free, if we wish.
1). We must lift the curtain of censorship and not allow the Jews to enhance and strengthen it who, not satisfied with falsifying the news of the hour, has gone back into past centuries to mutilate the classics of our literature and to exclude from our school histories such vital and significant facts. A start toward this goal can be made by exercising some of the Constitution-guaranteed rights, and by subscribing to periodicals with a firm record of opposing Communism. The reading of newsletters and books friendly to the American traditions not only encourages and strengthens the publishers of such works but makes the reader of them a better informed and therefore a more effective instrument in the great cause of saving Western Christian civilization.
2). We must begin in the spirit of humane Christian civilization to evolve some method of preventing our unassimilable mass of aliens and alien-minded people from exercising in this country a power over our culture and our lives out of all proportion to the number of the minority, and to prevent this minority from shaping, against the general national interest, our policies on such vital matters as war and immigration. Our danger from internal sources hostile to our civilization was the subject of a warning by General MacArthur in his speech before the Massachusetts Legislature on July 25, 1951: "This evil force, with neither spiritual base nor moral standard, rallies the abnormal and sub-normal elements among our citizenry and applies internal pressure against all things we hold decent and all things that we hold right, the type of pressure which has caused many Christian nations abroad to fall and their own cherished freedoms to languish in the shackles of complete suppression.
As it has happened there it can happen here. Our need for patriotic fervor and religious devotion was never more impelling. There can be no compromise with atheistic communism, no half way in the preservation of freedom and religion. It must be all or nothing. We must unite in the high purpose that the liberties etched upon the design of our life by our forefathers be unimpaired and that we maintain the moral courage and spiritual leadership to preserve inviolate that bulwark of all freedom, our Christian faith."
3). We must effect a genuine clean-up of our government removing not only all those who can be proven to be traitors, but also all those whose policies have for stupidity or bad judgment been inimical to the interests of our country.
There is one point in the fore-mentioned passage of Acts 18 that most folks seem to over look. Paul came to Corinth and planted the first Christian Church with the True Israelite inhabitants who apparently were worshiping Judaism out of ignorance. With little success at first, but a s a rational, as well as spiritual preacher, Paul reasoned with all Jews (Both non-Israel and True Israel) not with force or violence but by fair arguing he won some over to his own opinion.
In verses 9 and 10, Paul had a vision. Each of us ought to know fully this vision and effectively grasp its meaning in our lives, today, as White Israelites. We read in the King James Version: "Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city."
We should renew our own commission "be not afraid of the Jews." That means be not afraid of the magistrates of the city, county, state or federal for they have no power against you but what is given them from above. We are pleading, like Paul, the cause of heaven and we need to do it boldly. We should not be afraid of their words, nor dismayed at their quirky looks and fraudulent judgments. At the right times we should speak, and not hold back.
We should let no opportunity slip by without speaking in defense of Christianity and in opposition to the Jews and their hideous Judaism. We should not speak shyly or with caution, but up front, plainly and fully and with courage. We need to speak out in the liberty of the Spirit that becomes an ambassador for Christ.
Paul did speak up and the "Jews" rose up against him, but the Lord went to court with him and threw out his accusers by the hand of a person in high position. In this city that "Jews flocked to" you must remember that Corinth was a very profane and wicked city, full of impurity of all kinds and idols of all kinds. Yet in this great evil heap, with all its contempt for White Christian Israelites, i.e., the wheat, it sure seemed to human knowledge that the chaff would over come, but in this ore that seems to be all dross, there is gold.
Even in Corinth, Christ had much people. So we need to unseat this "fear of the Jews syndrome" and expose their evil, wicked plot to destroy all Christianity. This needs to be done today, before time runs out. Have you come "to know fully" the truth about Judaism and Christianity?
In verses 12-17 of Acts, Chapter 18, we find another of Paul's many trying times with the Jews {worshipers of Judaism - Traditions of the Elders}. Paul is accused by member of this Jewish sect before the Roman Governor, Gallio. Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, that is he was the proconsul for this province of the Roman Empire. In modern words this Jewish sect filed a frivolous complaint in a Roman court against Paul and Gallio was to be the presiding judge.
Paul was rudely apprehended with violence and fury in broad day light. These Jews cared little for public peace and justice, so they made insurrection. To me this means that they used disturbance of the public peace and force, i.e., vi et Armis, to apprehend Paul. They had little concern for his welfare or the safety of others. They, as they do today, already had pronounced Paul guilty in the media of their day. Just as they had at the trials of Christ. These enforcers hurried Paul off, probably in chains, to the judgment seat before Gallio. Paul was allowed no time, whatsoever, to prepare for his trial. Sounds like a familiar patriot scenario of arrest today, does it not? Paul, much like Christ, is falsely accused before Gallio (v. 13).
�What was the formal charge? "This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law."� My what a crime! Paul must have been "anti-semitic." These Jews could not charge him with persuading men not to worship God at all or to worship other Gods. (See Deuteronomy 13:2) So the only trumped up charge they could accuse him of breaking was, "that he was attempting to persuade men to worship God in a way contrary to the law (of the Jews)."
Now what in the world would you consider as being "contrary to the law." Does this sound a familiar alarm today? Sure it does! If you act "contrary" to the "law" of Title 26, your state motor vehicle "laws," or your property appraisal and collection "laws," see how fast you will be jerked up before some judgment seat and be made to pay for your "crimes."
The Romans allowed the Jews in all their provinces the observation of their own law. But, remember in verse 2, it is recorded, that Jews had been commanded to leave Rome. I wonder why? Did they have a Jewish problem in the society of that day? But who would enforce Jewish law in such a city of idols and corruption?
Should all people therefore be prosecuted as criminals, who worship God in any other way than that prescribed by the tenets of Judaism? The big question before Gallio is, "Does Roman toleration include a power of imposition?" Could Roman law force Paul or anyone to stop practicing any activity contrary to what the "Jews" call their law?
You must remember that the Jewish religion hates Christ and all goyium, i.e., White People. This is why the Jews of Corinth were so uptight against Paul for he was preaching Salvation through the Blood of Christ. This tenet of Israelite Christianity was unacceptable then and today for the Jews of this Pharisaism, i.e., Judaism. How the so-called (c)hristian of today can use the term Judeo-Christian is a gigantic mystery to many. When will the little "c" Christians come "to know fully" that these are two diametrically opposites. Just like black against white, not verses cold and light verses dark?
Paul was charged unjustly. Are White Israelite patriots ever charged unjustly, for violating some phantom law? Do they have ample opportunity to be tried in courts of certified common law venue where justice, fairness and real law prevails?
Rarely, if ever, not since about 1861 have justice been had in such courts. Paul had a different circumstance at this hearing than most patriots are usually afforded today. Gallio had a sweet nature and was sympathetic and apparently a stickler for the letter of the law.
For Gallio reasoned that the Jews in their own law, had in it a promise of a Prophet whom God would raise up to them, and they should listen to him and/or hear him. And Paul only persuaded people to believe in this Prophet, who was to come and to hear Him, which was all according "to the law." For this Prophet came not to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. Paul's teaching contradicted Judaism, partially the idea of Christ being the Messiah.
At the first hearing or, perhaps, a better way to put it, is no hearing at all, for Gallio dismisses the cause and states that he will not take any cognizance of the issue, at all. Paul was just about to make his defense which he apparently became so eloquently accustomed to doing. (See Acts 24-26)
Paul was about to present evidence that would prove that he did not teach men to worship contrary to the law, when Gallio rules that he will not be troubled with this case and will not pass sentence upon it nor even allow himself the trouble of examining it.
He, Gallio, was very capable of doing the part of a judge in any matter properly placed before him to take cognizance of. He said to the Jews, that were the prosecutors, "If it were a matter of wrong, or wicked lewdness," if you could charge the prisoner with theft or fraud, with murder or plunder or any act of immorality.
We would be bound to hear you with your complaint or accusations. Just because these Jews were loud and noisy and rude petitioners of this court, there was no valid reason to give them a hearing in any obvious unjust case. If the petitioner's cause had been just then it would have been the duty of Gallio or any magistrate to cause justice to be done. That means redress the injured party to be afforded his right(s). Then Gallio would pass comment and give the court's sentence upon the party causing the injury. If the complaint had merits even though not made with all the decorum of a judicial case, Gallio would have felt bound to hear the petitioner, no matter how rude and noisy they were in presenting it. But Gallio will not and did not allow these Jews a chance to make a complaint to him for something not within his jurisdiction. Oh, if we had a few judges and magistrates today of the caliber to determine rightful venue and jurisdiction. This Judge would not allow the Jews to burden his patience by hearing it nor would he burden his conscience with passing judgment upon this matter. And when the Jews hollered and screamed more and more, he found them in contempt of "his" court and drove them from the seat of judgment. Then he called the next cause. Bravo, Bravo!!!
This passage makes one think that Gallio conducted himself in a dignified and honorable mode. If only we had judges today who possessed this character. He did not want to, nor even pretend to judge spiritual things that he did not really understand.
This judgment would be left to the Jews in matters regarding their religion of Judaism. Yet he would not allow, the Jews to make him {Gallio} their instrument or tool of malice and pretend to pass judgment against Paul {he was following the example Pilate showed when he washed his hands of the matter concerning Christ, and told the Jews to do what they would, but he would have nothing to do with killing Christ}. Gallio looked upon this matter as not within his venue and jurisdiction and he did not intend to meddle in this affair anymore than a dismissal.
Gallio seems to have understood the law better than he did religious and/or worship. Whether Christ was the Messiah and of God, was not the issue before his court and he felt no need to take "judicial notice" of the law of any God. Whether the Gospel teachings of Christ the Messiah was of divine origin or not as these were not questions of words and names as Gallio scornfully and profanely called them.
These are valid concerns for Christianity and Judaism but not for a Roman Court, and he felt because of his ignorance of Judaism and Christianity, he did not want to inquire very far into them. "In 1923, Trotsky [a Jew], and Lunatcharsky Presided over a meeting in Moscow organized by the propaganda section of the Communist party to Judge God. Five thousand men of the Red Army were present. The Accused [Almighty God] was found guilty of various ignominious acts and having had the audacity to fail to appear, He [God] was condemned in default." (Ost Express, January 30, 1923. Cf. Berliner Taegeblatt May 1, 1923. See the details of the Bolshevist struggle against religion in The Assault of Heaven by A. Valentinoff (Boswell); The Secret Powers Behind Revolution, by Vicomte Leon De Poncins, p. 144‑145)
Then like today, a great contempt was placed upon the court by the Jews and/or Greeks. For they took Sosthenes and beat him in open contempt of Gallio's dismissal of the case against Paul. Look what happened, recently, in California and other places. If the Jews of Judaism can't have it their way against Christians, they will take it out in some other manner.
They were enraged against not only Paul, but also against Gallio and his court of justice. They wanted to be their own prosecutors and if Gallio would not rule in their favor, they would become their own judges and executioners. Apparently the contempt showed what the Jews did, and it did not come before Gallio's court. Gallio cared for none of those things is a puzzling concept of a man who somehow tried to help Paul for whatever reason.
If we can presume that this means that this judge is calloused against the things that bad men do to good men, except when brought into his jurisdiction, we find a flaw in the character of this Roman judge. As a judge he should have protected Sosthenes as much as he did Paul. But the facts point out that he did not. This kind of indifference carries just-us attitudes that compliments tyranny. His do-nothing attitude is evidence of one of Isaiah's writings: "that truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter, and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey." (Isaiah 59:14-15) Sounds like modern day news reporting, doesn't it?
Our courts today appear to adhere to the concept that justice somehow means just-us and all outsiders (non-Jews) will fall in line under its power to be administered by our controlled and/or deceived judges. So ask yourself, is there a "Jew" word problem; or a society "Jew" problem? Can one come "to know fully" the difference between Jewish Judaism and real true Israelite Christianity: The mixing of the two religions don't mix anymore than trying to mix oil and water.
Those who are truly seeking truth have at one time or another had a man/woman sent from God to witness of the Identity Movement and usually they simply ignored it the first time. Then God in His wisdom would send another. This time the messenger would be so convincing that the Truth Seeker would set out to prove him {or the material if it were a book or some other written information} wrong. To prove it a false concept. Then they found that the more they studied and learned they found that they have been lied to and deceived by a lot of so-called Christian folks. They came to believe that this was more out of ignorance on their part than deliberate, for they are deceived and content, most of them, to live therein.
But when the Lord reveals much more of His Word to them, they decide to re-educate themselves and find that the process is a never ending one. Because as they learn more, God will reveal more - making the Scriptures "seek and ye shall find" ever more true. They soon found that the Identity teachings were more on line than fundamental Christianity as taught in the churches, on TV and radio today. It appears to them that the more they study, research and meditate, the more the world pulls at their time just to make ends meet. So they know how the world will pull at you as you attempt to learn the truth.
The Jew today still works as they did in the hay-day of Corinth to keep True Israelite Christians so busy that they don't have time to stop and smell the roses and find real truth. It will only be with the help of YHWH {Almighty God} that the financial prison most of us fined ourselves caged in, will open and free us, swinging open the doors of liberty. Such liberty produces the time and resources needed to wage successful campaigns against the onslaught of deceit, lies and deception in todays (c)hristian parishes or folds.
Corinthians were famous for their cleverness, inventiveness and artistic sense. They prided themselves in the embellishment of their city and in the adornment of their heathen temples. But, not a single Corinthian ever distinguished himself in literature. Sound Jewish?
The Adamic Man, White People of Israelites i.e., Hebrew stock, are the chosen seed of Israel's race. They need to come to know fully who they are, and what they are. Their heritage demands fulfillment here in this American land, the New Jerusalem as spoken of in the Scriptures. Jesus the Christ, the Salvation of Israel, did not come to the Jewish people. in fact He came against almost everything they stand for. He came to the White Israelites, Matthew 15:24 states: "I am not sent, but to the lost sheep of the House of Israel." (See James 1:1; John 10:14 & 27)
Under the heading of "A brief History of the Terms for Jew" in the 1980 Jewish Almanac is the following: "Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew." [1]
The World Book omits any reference to the Jews, but under the word Semite it states: "Semite...Semites are those who speak Semitic languages. In this sense the ancient Hebrews, Assyrians, Phoenicians, and Cartaginians were Semites. The Arabs and some Ethiopians are modern Semitic‑speaking people. Modern Jews are often called Semites, but this name properly applies only to those who use the Hebrew Language. The Jews were once a sub‑type of the Mediterranean race, But they have mixed with other peoples until the name 'Jew' has lost all racial meaning."
Who are the Jews and where is the proof of their existence today? The Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925 edition, Vol. 5, p. 41, says: "Edom is in modern Jewry." �There is only one nation in the world that can prove ancestral ties with Edom, and the Jews themselves claim that dubious distinction. To help answer this question further, we refer you to the excellent book (which should be required reading) entitled "Who is Esau-Edom?" by Charles A.

If you don't understand the information in these two books, you will be unable to properly understand the central focus of the Scripture. The Dake Annotated Reference Bible, while being a scholarly effort, it provides annotations and perspectives which suffer from the authors lack of an informed basis regarding the true identity of the "Jews," Pharisees, Hebrews, and Israel.
In the last century Bram Stocker wrote the book Dracula and in his book he was describing the Jews from the very beginning of their drive to "occupy" our bodies and souls from the very beginning of the Luciferian infiltration of our society. There are hundreds of books {most of which are Jewish Encyclopedias and history books} available for study, which prove that over 90% of the Jews of the world are not a Semitic People, but few people other than historians ever bother to read them.
The religion practiced by the Pharisees in Jesus' time was based exclusively on the Babylonian Talmud. This, according to Rabbi Morris Kertzer, "The Talmud consists of 63 books of legal, ethical and historical writings of the ancient rabbis. It was edited five centuries after the birth of Jesus. It is a compendium of law and lore. It is the legal code which forms the basis of Jewish Religious Law and it is the textbook used in the training of rabbis."
In his lifetime Michael Rodkinson, the assumed name of a "Jew" who was one of the world's great authorities on the Talmud, wrote "History of the Talmud." This classic on the subject was written by Michael Rodkinson in collaboration with the celebrated Rabbi Isaac M. Wise. In his "History of the Talmud" Michael Rodkinson, on page 70, states: "Is the literature that Jesus was familiar with in his early years yet in existence in the world? Is it possible for us to get at it? Can we ourselves review the ideas, the statements, the modes of reasoning and thinking, on moral and religious subjects, which were current in his time, and must have been evaluated by Him during those thirty silent years when He was pondering His future mission? To such inquiries the learned class of Jewish rabbis answer by holding up The Talmud...and the question becomes, therefore, an interesting one to every Christian. What is the Talmud? The Talmud, then, is the written form of that which, in the time of Jesus was called the traditions of the elders and to which He makes frequent allusions."
Arsene Darmester in the book "The Talmud" states: "Judaism finds its expression in the Talmud, it is not a remote suggestion and a faint echo thereof, but it...has become incarnate, in which it has taken form, passing from a state of abstraction into the domain of real things. The study of Judaism is that of the Talmud, as the study of the Talmud is that of Judaism...they are two inseparable things...they are one and the same...the Talmud, is a complete expression of religious movement, and this code of endless presumptions and minute ceremonials represents in its perfection the total work of the religious idea...The miracle was accomplished by a book, The Talmud...The Talmud is composed of two distinct parts the Mishna and the Gemara; the former the text, the latter a commentary upon the text... term Mishna we designate a collection of decisions and traditional laws embracing all departments of legislation, civil and religious... This code, the work of several generations of rabbis...nothing can equal the importance of the Talmud unless it be the ignorance that prevails concerning it...This explains how it happens that a single page of the Talmud contains three or four different languages, or rather specimens of one language at three or four stages of degeneracy...many a Mishna of five or six lines is accompanied by fifty or sixty pages of explanation...is law in all its authority; it constitutes dogma and cult; it is the fundamental element of the Talmud...The daily study of the Talmud which among Jews begins with the age of ten to end with life itself necessarily was a severe gymnastic for the mind, thinks to which it acquired incomparable subtlety and acumen...since it aspires to one thing: To establish for Judaism a 'Corpus Juris Eccleiastict!'"�

And on and on, and on it goes, for 63 volumes of filth and blasphemy. This is what the Jews are taught in their synagogues. Do you after reading these words, believe the Christian religion got its start from this kind of blasphemy and filth? This is what the Judeo-Christian ["Minister"] teach, when he tells you that we have a Judeo‑Christian culture.
These are just a few selected from a very complicated arrangement in which many references are obscured by intricate reasonings. Speaking of the "Tradition of the Elders," Jesus said: "Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders?...But he [Jesus] answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?...ye have made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition." [2]
Jesus said a second time: "Then the Pharisees and scribes [The Jews] asked him [Jesus], Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders...He [Jesus] answered and said unto them...Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition." [3]
Paul said of the "Tradition of the Elders." "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." [4] Peter also spoke of them. "Forasmuch as ye know that ye [Jews] were not redeemed...from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers." [5]
So Jesus' teaching could not have possibly come from this blasphemous book. The Babylonian Talmud is the Jewish holy book, used in the training of rabbis, taught in the synagogues by the rabbis and studied by the Jews from an early age until death.
Without any question, The Talmud (Known to Jesus in His time on earth in a flesh body as "The Tradition of The Elders") stands as the Supreme Authority of Jewish Law [Their lies to the contrary notwithstanding], philosophy and ethics; it contains the unchanging moral code by which the religious and social life of the Jews has been regulated to this day.
The Jews believe in the teachings of the Talmud and act in accordance with its commands. Whereas the teachings of the Christian Bible are available to all, for it is to be found everywhere. On the other hand, only a very few non‑Jews have even so much as heard of the Talmud, and still fewer know of its teachings, for it is scores of volumes in length and shrouded in secrecy by the Jews. Are you naive enough to believe that a religious book which encourages incest, such as the Sanhedrin volume of the Talmud does, or unnatural intercourse, or rape of non‑Jews; or bestiality, as found in this filthy book; do you believe this could be the basis of Jesus' teaching? If you do, then you are guilty of the vilest form of blasphemy. Are you willing to believe that statements found in the Talmud, such as those which follow, are those of Christianity?

��������������������������������������������������������������� To Be Khazars And Not Israelites
"It is highly probable that the bulk of the Jew's ancestors 'never' lived in Palestine 'at all,' which witnesses the power of historical assertion over fact." [6]
In addition, under the heading of "A brief History of the Terms for Jew" in the 1980 Jewish Almanac is the following: "Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an Ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite of a Hebrew." [7]
The World Book omits any reference to the Jews, but under the word Semite it states: "Semite...Semites are those who speak Semitic languages. In this sense the ancient Hebrews, Assyrians, Phoenicians, and Cartaginians were Semites. The Arabs and some Ethiopians are modern Semitic‑speaking people. Modern Jews are often called Semites, but this name properly applies only to those who use the Hebrew Language. The Jews were once a sub‑type of the Mediterranean race, but they have mixed with other peoples until the name 'Jew' has lost all racial meaning."
There are hundreds of books {most of which are Jewish Encyclopedias and history books} available for study, which prove that over 90% of the Jews of the world are not a Semitic people, but few people other than historians ever bother to read them. Following are just a few:
The History of The Jewish Khazars, by D.M. Dunlop, pp. 4-15: "...Our first question here is, When did the Khazars and the Khazar name appear? There has been considerable discussion as to the relation of the Khazars to the Huns on the one hand and to the West Turks on the other. The prevalent opinion has for some time been that the Khazars emerged from the West Turkish empire.
*���� Early references to the Khazars appear about the time when the West Turks cease to be mentioned. Thus they are reported to have joined forces with the Greek Emperor Heraclius against the Persians in A.D. 627 and to have materially assisted him in the siege of Tiflis. it is a question whether the Khazars were at this time under West Turk supremacy. The chronicler Theophanes {died circa A.D. 818} who tells the story introduces them as 'the Turks from the east whom they call Khazars.'...
A similar discussion on the merits of the different races is reported from the days before Muhammad, in which the speakers are the Arab Nu'man ibn-al-Mudhir of al-Hirah and Khusraw Anushirwan. The Persian gives his opinion that the Greeks, Indians, and Chinese are superior to the Arabs and so also, in spite of their low material standards of life, the Turks and the Khazars, who at least possess an organization under their kings. Here again the Khazars are juxtaposed with the great nations of the east.
It is consonant with this that tales were told of how ambassadors from the Chinese, the Turks, and the Khazars were constantly at Khusraw's gate, [8] and even that he kept three thrones of gold in his palace, which were never removed and on which none sat, reserved for the kings of Byzantium, China and the Khazars.
In general, the material in the Arabic and Persian writers with regard to the Khazars in early times falls roughly into three groups, centering respectively round the names of (a) one or other of the Hebrew patriarchs, (b) Alexander the Great, and (c) certain of the Sassanid kings, especially, Anushirwan and his immediate successors.
A typical story of the first group is given by Ya'qubi in his History. After the confusion of tongues at Babel,[9] the descendants of Noah came to Peleg,[10] son of Eber,[11] and asked him to divide[12] the earth among them. He apportioned to the descendants of Japheth [13] - China, Hind, Sind, the country of the Turks and that of the Khazars, as well as Tibet, the country of the (Volga) Bulgars, Daylam, and the country neighboring on Khurasan. In another passage Ya'qubi gives a kind of sequel to this. Peleg [14] having divided the earth in this fashion,[15] the descendants of 'Amur ibn-Tubal,[16] a son of Japheth, went out to the northeast. One group, the descendants of Togarmah,[17] proceeding farther north, were scattered in different countries and became a number of kingdoms, among them the Burjan (Bulgars), Alans, Khazars (Ashkenaz[18]), and Armenians.
Similarly, according to Tabari, there were born to Japheth Jim-r (the Biblical Gomer [19]), Maw'-' (read Mawgh-gh, Magog [20]), Mawday (Madai [21]), Yawan (Javan) [22]), Thubal (Tubal), Mash-j (read Mash-kh, Meshech[23]) and Tir-sh (Tiras[24]). Of the descendants of the last were the Turks and the Khazars (Ashkenaz).
There is possibly an association here with the Turgesh, survivors of the West Turks, who were defeated by the Arabs in 119/737,[25] and disappeared as a ruling group in the same century. Tabari says curiously that of the descendants of Mawgh-gh (Magog) were Yajuj and Majuj, adding that these are to the east of the Turks and Khazars. This information would invalidate Zeki Validi's attempt to identify Gog and Magog in the Arabic writers with the Norwegians. The name Mash-kh (Meshech) is regarded by him as probably a singular to the classical Massagetai (Massag-et). A Bashmakov emphasizes the connection of 'Meshech' with the Khazars, to establish his theory of the Khazars, not as Turks from inner Asia, but what he calls a Jephetic or Alarodian group from south of the Caucasus.
Evidently there is no stereotyped form of this legendary relationship of the Khazars to Japheth. The Taj-al-Artis says that according to some they are the descendants of Kash-h (? Mash-h or Mash-kh, for Meshech), son of Japheth, and according to others both the Khazars and the Saqalibah are sprung from Thubal (Tubal). Further, we read of Balanjar ibn-Japheth in ibn-al-Faqih and abu-al-Fida' as the founder of the town of Balanjar. Usage leads one to suppose that this is equivalent to giving Balanjar a separate racial identity. In historical times Balanjar was a well-known Khazar center, which is even mentioned by Masudi as their capital. It is hardly necessary to cite more of these Japheth stories. Their Jewish origin is priori obvious, and Poliak has drawn attention to one version of the division of the earth, where the Hebrew words for 'north' and 'south' actually appear in the Arabic text. The Iranian cycle of legend had a similar tradition, according to which the hero Afridun divided the earth among his sons, Tuj (sometimes Tur, the eponym of Turan), Salm, and Iraj. Here the Khazars appear with the Turks and the Chinese in the portion assigned to Tuj, the eldest son. Some of the stories connect the Khazars with Abraham.
The tale of a meeting in Khurasan between the sons of Keturah[26] and the Khazars (Ashkenaz[27]) where the Khaqan is Khaqan is mentioned is quoted from the Sa'd and al-Tabari by Poliak.
The tradition also appears in the Meshed manuscript of ibn-al-Faqih, apparently as part of the account of Tamim ibn-Babr's journey to the Uigurs, but it goes back to Hishim al-Kalbi. Zeki Validi is inclined to lay some stress on it as a real indication of the presence of the Khazars in this region at an early date. Al-Jahiz similarly refers to the legend of the sons of Abraham and Keturah settling in Khurasan but does not mention the Khazars. Al-Di-mashqi says that according to one tradition the Turks were the children of Abraham by Keturah, whose father belonged to the original Arab stock. Descendants of other sons of Abraham, namely the Soghdians and the Kirgiz, were also said to live beyond the Oxus..."
Benjamin Freeman, Facts Are Facts: "CHAZARS: A people of Turkish origin whose life and history are interwoven with the very beginnings of the history of the Jews of Russia...driven on by the nomadic tribes of the steppes and by their own desire for plunder and revenge... In the second half of the sixth century the Chazars moved westward...The kingdom of the Chazars was firmly established in most of south Russia long before the foundation of the Russian monarchy by the Varangians...At this time the kingdom of the Chazars stood at the height of its power and was constantly at war...At the end of the eighth century...the chagan (king) of the Chazars and his grandees, together with a large number of his heathen people, embraced the Jewish religion"

Encyclopedia Britannica (15th edition): "Khazars, confederation of Turkic and Iranian tribes that established a major commercial empire in the second half of the 6th century, covering the southeastern section of modern European Russia...In the middle of the 8th century the ruling classes adopted Judaism as their religion."
Academic American Encyclopedia (1985): "Ashkenazim, the Ashkenazim are one of the two major divisions of the Jews, the other being the Shephardim."
Encyclopedia Americana (1985): "Ashkenazim, the Ashkenazim are the Jews whose ancestors lived in German lands...it was among Ashkenazi Jews that the idea of political Zionism emerged, leading ultimately to the establishment of the state of Israel...In the late 1960s, Ashkenazi Jews numbered some 11 million, about 84 percent of the world Jewish population."
The Jewish Encyclopedia: "Khazars, a non-Semitic,Asiatic, Mongolian tribal nation who emigrated into Eastern Europe about the first century, who were converted as an entire nation to Judaism in the seventh century by the expanding Russian nation which absorbed the entire Khazar population, and who account for the presence in Eastern Europe of the great numbers of Yiddish‑speaking Jews in Russia, Poland, Lithuania, Galatia, Besserabia and Rumania."
The Encyclopedia Judaica (1972): "Khazars, a national group of general Turkic type, independent and sovereign in Eastern Europe between the seventh and tenth centuries C.E. during part of this time the leading Khazars professed Judaism...In spite of the negligible information of an archaeological nature, the presence of Jewish groups and the impact of Jewish ideas in Eastern Europe are considerable during the Middle Ages. Groups have been mentioned as migrating to Central Europe from the East often have been referred to as Khazars, thus making it impossible to overlook the possibility that they originated from within the former Khazar Empire."
The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia: "Khazars, a medieval people, probably related to the Volga Bulgars, whose ruling class adopted Judaism during the 8th cent. The Khazars seem to have emerged during the 6th cent., from the vast nomadic Hun (Turki) empire which stretched from the steppes of Eastern Europe and the Volga basin to the Chinese frontier. Although it is often claimed that allusions to the Khazars are found as early as 200 C.E., actually they are not mentioned until 627...most Jewish historians date the conversion of the Khazar King to Judaism during the first half of this century {A.D.}..."
The primary meaning of Ashkenaz and Ashkenazim in Hebrew is Germany and Germans. This may be due to the fact that the home of the ancient ancestors of the Germans is Media, which is the Biblical Ashkenaz...Krauss is of the opinion that in the early medieval ages the Khazars were sometimes referred to as Ashkenazim...About 92 percent of all Jews or approximately 14,500,000 are Ashkenazim.
The Bible relates that the Khazar (Ashkenaz) Jews were/are the sons of Japheth not Shem: "Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. The sons of Japheth;...the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz..." [28] So the Bible verifies that the Ashkenaz Jews [Khazars] are not the descendants of Shem and cannot be Semite.
The American People's Encyclopedia for 1954 at 15‑292 records the following in reference to the Khazars:
"In the year 740 A.D. the Khazars were officially converted to Judaism. A century later they were crushed by the incoming Slavic‑ speaking people and were scattered over central Europe where they were known as Jews. It is from this grouping that most German, Polish and Hungarian Jews are descended, and they likewise make up a considerable part of that population now found in America. The term Aschenazim is applied to this round‑headed, dark‑complexioned division."����
Academic American Encyclopedia Deluxe Library Edition, Volume 12, page 66 states: "The Khazars, a turkic people, created a commercial and political empire that dominated substantial parts of South Russia during much of the 7th through 10th centuries. During the 8th century the Khazar Aristocracy and the Kagan(King) were converted to Judaism."
The New Encyclopedia Britannica, Volume 6, page 836 relates: "Khazar, member of a confederation of Turkic-speaking tribes that in the late 6th century A.D. established a major commercial empire covering the southeastern section of modern European Russia...but the most striking characteristic of the Khazars was the apparent adoption of Judaism by the Khagan and the greater part of the ruling class in about 740...The fact itself, however, is undisputed and unparalleled in the history of Central Eurasia. A few scholars have asserted that the Judaized Khazars were the remote ancestors of many of the Jews of Eastern Europe and Russia."
Collier's Encyclopedia, Volume 14, page 65 states: "Khazars [kaza'rz], a semi-nomadic tribe of Turkish or Tatar origin who first appeared north of the Caucasus in the early part of the third century...In the eighth century Khaghan Bulan decided in favor of the Jews and accepted Judaism for himself and for his people..."
New Catholic Encyclopedia, Volume VIII, page 173 relates: "The Khazars were an ethnic group, belonging to the Turkish peoples, who, toward the end of the 2d century of the Christian Era, had settled in the region between the Caucasus and the lower Volga and Don Rivers...At the beginning of the 8th century, dynastic ties bound the Khazars more closely to Constantinople, which led to a limited spread of Christianity among them. They also became acquainted with Judaism from the numerous Jews who lived in the Crimea and along the Bosphorus. When the Byzantine Emperor, Leo the Isaurian, persecuted the Jews in A.D. 723, many Jews found refuge in the Khazar kingdom, and their influence was so great that, around the middle of the 8th century, the King of the Khazars and many of the Khazar nobility accepted the Jewish faith."
The Cadillac Modern Encyclopedia, page 822, states:� "Khazars (khah'-zahrz), a S Russian people of Turkic origin, who at the height of their power (during the 8th-10th cent., A.D.) controlled an empire which included Crimea, and extended along the lower Volga, as far E as the Caspian Sea. The Khazar Royal Family and Aristocracy converted to Judaism during the reign of King Bulan (768-809 A.D.) and Judaism was thereafter regarded as the state religion..."
There are many, many publications we could quote but from the above, we can clearly see that the Jews fully understand their Khazarian heritage as the third edition of The Jewish Encyclopedia for 1925 records: "CHAZARS [Khazars]: A people of Turkish origin whose life and history are interwoven with the very beginnings of the history of the Jews of Russia. The kingdom of the Chazars was firmly established in most of South Russia long before the foundation of the Russian monarchy by the Varangians (855).
Jews have lived on the shores of the Black and Caspian seas since the first centuries of the common era [after the death of Christ]. Historical evidence points to the region of the Ural as the home of the Chazars. Among the classical writers of the Middle Ages they were known as the 'Chozars,' 'Khazirs,' 'Akatzirs,' and 'Akatirs,' and in the Russian chronicles as 'Khwalisses' and 'Ugry Byelyye.'..."
Nathan M. Pollock has a beef with the Israeli government. His elaborate plans to celebrate this September the 1000th anniversary of the Jewish ‑ Khazar alliance were summarily rejected. An elderly, meek‑looking man who migrated to Israel from Russia 43 years ago.
He has devoted 40 of his 64 years trying to prove that six out of ten Israelis and none out of ten Jews in the Western Hemisphere are real Jews' Jews. But descendants of fierce Khazar tribes which roamed the steppes of Southern Russia many centuries ago. For obvious reasons the Israeli authorities are not at all eager to give the official stamp of approval to Pollock's theories: "For all we know, he may be 100 percent right,' said a senior government official. 'In fact, he is not the first one to discover the connection between Jews and Khazars. Many famous scholars Jews and non‑Jews, stressed these links in their historical research works. But who can tell today what percentage of Khazar blood flows in our veins..." [29]
Following is yet another story of the conversion of a tribe of people in Russia to Judaism.
Facts Are Facts, By Benjamin Freedman): "Without a complete and accurate knowledge of the origin and history of the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe...it is quite impossible for [Christians] to intelligently understand the harmful influence the Jews have exerted for ten centuries...You will probably be astonished as many Christians were years ago when I electrified the nation with the first publication by me of the facts disclosed by my many years of research into the origin and the history of the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe.
My many years of intensive research established beyond the question of any doubt, contrary to the generally accepted belief held by Christians, that the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe at any time in their history in Eastern Europe were never the legendary 'lost ten tribes' of Bible lore. That historic fact is incontrovertible. Relentless research established as equally true that the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe at no time in their history could be correctly regarded as the direct lineal descendants of the legendary 'lost ten tribes' of Bible lore. The 'Jews' in Eastern Europe in modern history cannot legitimately point to a single ancient ancestor who ever set even a foot on the soil of Palestine in the era of Bible history. Research also revealed that the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe were never 'Semites,' are not 'Semites' now, nor can they ever be regarded as 'Semites' at any future time by any stretch of the imagination. Exhaustive research also irrevocably rejects as a fantastic fabrication the generally accepted belief by Christians that the 'Jews' in Eastern Europe are the legendary 'Chosen People' so very vocally publicized by the Christian clergy from their pulpits..."
The Jewish author, Arthur Koestler, relates the following concerning Jewish history: In his 1976 best seller The Thirteenth Tribe, the Author of Darkness at Noon, Promise and Fulfillment, and The Roots of Coincidence dropped another bombshell by proving that today's Jews were, for the most part, descendants of Khazars, who converted to Judaism seven centuries after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D.: "This, of course, is inspired by the story of the Covenant in Genesis; and it implies that the Khazars too claimed the status of a Chosen Race, who made their own Covenant with the Lord, even though they� were not descended from Abraham's seed...He cannot, and does not, claim for them Semitic descent; he traces their [Khazars] ancestry not to Shem, but to Noah's third son, Japheth; or more precisely to Japheth's grandson, Togarma, the ancestor of all Turkish Tribes. 'We have found in the family registers of our fathers,' Joseph asserts boldly, 'that Togarma had ten sons, and the names of their off-spring are as follows: Uigur, Dursu, Avars, Huns, Basilii, Tarniakh, Khazars, Zagora, Bulgars, Sabir. We [Khazars] are the sons of Khazar, the seventh...'" [30]
Jewish author Alfred M. Lilienthal in The Zionist Connection II, pages 759‑768; relates the following concerning Jewish history: "...'The existence of [The State of] Israel is not founded on logic. It has no ordinary legitimacy. There is neither in its establishment nor present scope any evident justice ‑ though there may be an utter need and wondrous fulfillment.'...Arthur Koestler answers this question with an emphatic 'NO!' In his 1976 best seller The Thirteenth Tribe, the Author of Darkness at Noon, Promise and Fulfillment, and The Roots of Coincidence dropped another bombshell by proving that today's Jews were, for the most part, descendants of Khazars, who converted to Judaism seven centuries after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D...Therefore, the great majority of Eastern European Jews are not Semitic Jews at all, and as most Western European Jews came from East Europe, most of them also are not Semitic Jews. Thus, maintains Koestler, the veins of 45 percent of Israelis (save only the Arab and the Sephardic Jews), plus a big majority of Jews around the world, are utterly vacant of corpuscular links to the tribe of Moses and Solomon...
The Koestler thesis, however startling, is in no wise a new one. The genetic Khazar derivation of most Jews, only the Sephardic may be accounted Hebrews by blood, has been long if not widely known...
The home to which Weismann, Silver, Ben‑Gurion and so many other Ashkenazim Zionists have long yearned to return has most likely never been theirs...[it is an] anthropological fact, many Christians may have much more Hebrew-Israelite blood in their veins than most of their Jewish neighbors!
Ironically enough, too, Volume IV of the Jewish Encyclopedia (as of the time of research, 1952), because this publication spelled Khazars with a 'C' instead of a 'K,' is titled 'Chazars to Dreyfus.'. And it was the famed trial of Captain Alfred Dreyfus, as interpreted by Theodore Herzl, that made the modern Jewish Khazars of Russia...forget their descent from converts to Judaism...to establish the State of Israel...And without the hue and cry, 'Anti-Semitism,' pray what happens to the Zionist movement? Khazar conversion was not unique...
Who can say for sure that many Christian readers of this book might not in fact have a better claim, which they do not choose to exercise, to go back 'home' to Palestine than Hannah Semer, Menachem Begin, or Golda Meir? Queen Victoria herself belonged to an Israelite Society that traced the ancestry of its membership back to the lost tribes of Israel. When the word 'Judaism' was born, there was no longer a Hebrew-Israelite state. The people who embraced the creed of Judaism were already a mixture of many nations, races, and strains, and this diversification was rapidly growing..."
Antiquities of the Jews, by Josephus, Book 13, ch. 9, sec. 1:� "...Hyrcanus...took Medaba...Samega, and the neighboring places, and, besides these, Shechem and Gerizzim, and the nation of the Cutheans, who dwelt at the temple which resembled that temple which was at Jerusalem...which temple was now deserted two hundred years after it was built. Hyrcanus took also Dora and Marissa, cities of idumea, and subdued all the Idumeans (Edomite Jews); and...they submitted to the use of circumcision, and the rest of the Jewish ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, that they were hereafter no other than Jews."
The Conquest of A Continent, by Madison Grant, pp. 224-225: "It was in this period that the Polish Jews began their tumultuous and frantic invasion, a flood which only recently has been checked, and that with the greatest difficulty. The great mass of immigrants from South Poland, Galicia, and Russia were Ashkanazim Jews, descendants in part of Alpine Khozars (Khazars), with a Mongol admixture, who entered the eastern Ukraine from Asia in the early centuries of our era. Many of the Khozars and their Khan were converted by Jewish missionaries and they formally accepted Judaism in 740 A.D. It is doubtful whether there is a single drop of the old Palestinian, Semantic-speaking Hebrew blood among these East European Jews. They are essentially a non-European people. The language they speak, Judisch, or Yiddish, is a corrupt German of the Franconian dialect mixed with Slavic and Hebrew elements, which fact strengthens the tradition of a large migration of German Jews into Poland in the Middle Ages. It may be that the strain of these German Jews has died out, leaving only their language behind, but in any event the Polish Jews are now distinctly Alpine: a mixture of Slavs and of Asiatic invaders of Russia...The German Jews, who also came into this country in smaller numbers at the end of the last century, were of the Alpine type, closely resembling those from Poland, Galicia, and Russia. All of these Jews are in sharp contrast to the Sephardim Jews, a superior group, largely Mediterranean in race, a very few of whom came from Holland to America in Colonial times. These latter had reached Spain by way of North Africa and later fled to Holland to escape the Inquisition."
The Iron Curtain Over America, By John Beaty, pp. 15-16. In the later years of the dimly recorded first millennium of the Christian era, Slavic people of several kindred tribes occupied the land which became known later as the north central portion of European Russia. South of them between the Don and Volga rivers and north of the lofty Caucasus Mountains lived a people known to history as Khazars.[31]
These people had been driven westward from Central Asia and entered Europe by the corridor between the Ural Mountains and the Caspian Sea. They found a land occupied by primitive pastoral people of a score or more of tribes, a land which law beyond the boundaries of the Roman Empire at its greatest extent under Trajan (ruled, 98-117 A.D.), and also beyond the boundaries of the Byzantine Empire (395-1453).
By slow stages the Khazars extended their territory eventually to the Sea of Azov and the adjacent littoral of the Black Sea. The Khazars were apparently a people of mixed stock with Mongol and Turkic affinities. Around the year 600, a belligerent tribe of half-Mongolian people, similar to the modern Turks, conquered the territory of what is now Southern Russia. Before long the kingdom (khanate) of the Khazars, as this tribe was known, stretched form the Caspian to the Black Sea. Its capital, Ityl, was at the mouth of the Volga River.[32] In the eighth or ninth century of our era, a khakan (or chagan, roughly equivalent to tribal chief or primitive king) of the Khazars wanted a religion for his pagan people. Partly, perhaps, because of incipient tension between Christians and the adherents of the new Mohammedan faith (Mohammed died in 632), and partly because of fear of becoming subject to the power of the Byzantine emperor or the Islamic caliph,[33] he adopted a form of the Jewish religion at a date generally placed at 741 A.D., but believed by Vernadsky to be as late as 865.
According to the Universal Jewish Encyclopedia (Vol. VI, pp. 375-377), this chieftain, probably Bulan, "called upon the representatives of Judaism, Christianity and Mohammedanism to expound their doctrines before him. This discussion convinced him that the Jewish faith was the most preferable, and he decided to embrace it. Thereupon he and about 4,000 Khazars were circumcised; it was only by degrees that the Jewish teachings gained a foothold among the population."
In His History of the Jews,[34] Professor H. Graetz gives further details: "A successor of Bulan, who bore the Hebrew name of Obadiah, was the first to make serious efforts to further the Jewish religion. He invited Jewish sages to settle in his dominions, rewarded them royally, founded synagogues and schools...caused instruction to be given to himself and his people in the Torah and the Talmud, and introduced a divine service modeled on the ancient communities. After Obadiah came a long series of Jewish chagans, for according to a fundamental law of the state only Jewish rulers were permitted to ascend the throne."
The rabbis sent for by Khakan Obadiah were educated in and were zealots for the Babylonian Talmud, which after long labors by many hands had been completed on December 2, 1499. In the thousands of synagogues which were built in the Khazar khanate, the imported rabbis and their successors were in complete control of the political, social and religious thought of their people.
So significant was the Babylonian Talmud as the principal cause of Khazar resistance to Russian efforts to end their political and religious separatism, and so significant also are the modern sequels, including those in the United States, that an extensive quotation on the subject from the great History of the Jews, by Professor H. Graetz (Vol. II, 1893, pp. 631ff.) is here presented: "The Talmud must not be regarded as an ordinary work, composed of twelve volumes; it possesses absolutely no similarity to any other literary production, but forms without any figure of speech, a world of its own, which must be judged by its peculiar laws...
The Talmud contains much that is frivolous of which it treats with great gravity and seriousness; it further reflects the various superstitious practices and views of its Persian birthplace which presume the efficacy of demonical medicines, of magic, incantations, miraculous cures, and interpretations of dreams...It also contains isolated instances of uncharitable judgments and decrees against the members of other nations and religions (especially Christians), and finally it favors an incorrect exposition of the scriptures, accepting, as it does, tasteless misrepresentations. More than six centuries lie petrified in the Talmud... Small wonder then, that...the sublime and the common, the great and the small, the grave and the ridiculous, the altar and the ashes, the Jewish and the Heathenish, be discovered side by side...The Babylonian Talmud is especially distinguished from the Jerusalem or Palestine Talmud by the flights of thought, the penetration of mind, the flashes of genius, which rise and vanish again...It was for this reason that the Babylonian rather than the Jerusalem Talmud became the fundamental possession of the Jewish people, its life breath, its very soul...nature and mankind, powers and events, were for the Jewish nation insignificant, non-essential, a mere phantom; the only true reality was the Talmud."
Not merely educated by the Talmud but actually living the life of its Babylonian background, which they may have regarded with increased devotion because most of the Jews of Mesopotamia had embraced Islam, the rabbi-governed Khazars had no intention whatever of losing their identity by becoming Russianized or Christian. The intransigent attitude of the rabbis was increased by their realization that their power would be lost if their people accepted controls other than Talmudic. These controls by rabbis were responsible not only for basic mores, but for such externals as the peculiarities of dress and hair. It has been frequently stated by writers on the subject that the "ghetto" was the work not of Russians or other Slavs but of rabbis, so they could retain their control over the lesser Jews.
Perhaps, now, it can be understood why The World Book Encyclopedia by the following, states: "The Jews were once a sub‑type of the Mediterranean race, but they have mixed with other peoples until the name Jew has lost all racial meaning."
��� Judeo-Christian Heritage is A Hoax: It appears there is no need to belabor the absurdity and fallacy of the "Judeo-Christian heritage" fiction, which certainly is clear to all honest theologians.
That "Judeo-Christian dialogue" in this context is also absurd was well stated in the author-initiative religious journal, Judaism, Winter 1966, by Rabbi Eliezar Berkowitz, chairman of the department of Jewish philosophy, at the Hebrew Theological College when he wrote: "As to dialogue in the purely theological sense, nothing could be more fruitless or pointless. Judaism is Judaism because it rejects Christianity; and Christianity is Christianity because it rejects Judaism. What is usually referred to as the Jewish-Christian traditions exists only in Christian or secularist fantasy."
There is no doubt this is true! And the fantasy exists in Christian and Secularist minds only because it was implanted there by the persistent propaganda of the masters of intrigue of the ADL-AJC Network. Nevertheless, there can be no doubt that knowledgeable theologians, Jewish and Christians who constantly allude to "our Judeo-Christian heritage" are for their own specious purposes perpetuate a grotesque and fantastic hoax.
Boston: A Harvard Divinity School professor, John Strugnell, was removed this week as chief editor of the Dead Sea Scrolls not only because of his poor health, but because of a tirade against Israel and Judaism, his colleagues said. The remarks, in which he called Judaism "a horrible religion" that "should have disappeared," came as a surprise to some colleagues working with him to decipher the ancient texts of the Old Testament. Strugnell made the remarks in a recent interview published in Haaretz, a Tel Aviv newspaper.
In the Haaretz interview, Strugnell, 60, said he was not against Jews but their religion, according to an account soon to be published in the Biblical Archaeology Review. "I can't allow the word anti-Semitism to be used," he is quoted as saying, "Anti-Judaist, that's what I am."
The Encyclopedia Americana calls Hyrcanus a Jewish high priest [135‑105 B.C.] who forced the Idumeans to become "Jews." Idumea is the Greek for Edomites.
The works of Josephes relates how the Idumeans were forced to accept Judaism. In the Bible Esau, Edo, Mt. Seir and Idumea are interchangeable for the offspring of ESAU, Jacob's twin brother. So you see the people known as "Jews" today are not the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; but are usurpers trying to gain an inheritance that is not theirs.
The Encyclopedia Americana calls Hyrcanus a Jewish high priest [135‑105 B.C.] who forced the Idumeans to become "Jews." Idumea is the Greek for Edomites. The works of Josephes relates how the Idumeans were forced to accept Judaism.
In the Bible Esau, Edo, Mt. Seir and Idumea are inter-changeable for the offspring of ESAU, Jacob's twin brother. Between the time of Nehemiah and the birth of Christ, the problem of intermarriage increased. The climax of the problem came about a century and a half before the birth of Christ, when the Judean, John Hyrcanus, conquered the heathen cities in Palestine and forced the Canaanites to become Judeans ["Jews"].
Josephus, the Judean historian, writing in about 95 A.D. wrote of this: "Hyrcanus took also Dora and Marissa, cities of Idumea [Greek form of Edom], and subdued all the Idumaeans; and permitted them to stay in that country, if they would be circumcised, and make use of the laws of the Judeans; and they were so desirous of living in the country of their forefathers, that they submitted to the use of circumcision, and the rest of the Judean ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, they were hereafter no other than Judeans." [35]
A footnote in Josephus quotes Ammonius, an ancient grammarian, who says further: "The Judeans are such by nature, and from the beginning, whilst the Idumaeans were not Judeans from the beginning, but Phoenicians and Syrians; but being afterward subdued by the Judeans and compelled to be circumcised, and to unite into one nation, and be subject to the same laws, they were called Judeans." This same footnote also quotes Dio, the ancient historian: "That country is also called Judea, and the people Judeans; and this name is given also to as many as embrace their religion, though of other nations."
Josephus continues his history of how the Judahites incorporated the Edomites and Canaanites and a history of the son of Hyrcanus named Aristobulus: "He was called a lover of the Grecians; and had conferred many benefits on his own country, and made war against Iturea, and added a great part of it to Judea, and compelled its inhabitants if they would continue in that country, to be circumcised, and to live according to the Judean laws;[36] "Now at this time the Judeans were in possession of the following cities that had belonged to the Syrians, and Idumeans, and Phoenicians: [Here he lists 23 non‑Israelite cities]; which last [city] they utterly destroyed, because its inhabitants would not bear to change their religious rites for those peculiar to the Judeans. The Judeans also possessed others of the principle cities of Syria, which had been destroyed." [37]
This all took place at least a century before Christ. It is obvious, then, that by the time Christ was born a great host of the people living in Judea were Canaanites and Edomites by race, although they were Jews by religion and Judeans by citizenship. Even the ruling dynasty of the Herods were Edomites. Josephus speaks of: "Herod, who was no more than a private man, and an Idumean, i.e., a half‑Judean." [38] A footnote here says: "Accordingly, Josephus always esteems him an Idumean, though he says his father Antipater was of the same people with the Judeans, and a Judean by birth, as indeed all such proselytes of justice as the Idumeans, were in time esteemed the very same people with the Judeans."
The Esau‑Edomite nation ["Idumea"] ceased to exist as a separate nation at this point in history. And yet the Bible is clear that Edom would be the enemy of Israel in the latter days. How could these prophecies be fulfilled, if there are no Edomites left in the world? There is only one nation in the world that can prove ancestral ties with Edom, and the Jews themselves claim that dubious distinction. The Jews have thus adopted the materialistic and anti‑Christ attitude that characterized the father of the Edomites, Esau. As judgment for their sins, including that of the Crucifixion of Christ, God cast them out of Palestine in 70 A.D. whereupon they fled to North Africa and Spain.
We find what happened to them in The American People's Encyclopedia for 1954, page 15‑492, under "The Jews." "Following their dispersal many spread across North Africa to Spain and during this movement converted many of the Berber tribes to Judaism. This had little effect on physical type, since most of the Berbers were likewise of that Mediterranean Race. That portion which moved into Spain and later northward achieved considerable wealth and prestige and became known as Sephardim Jews."
The Outline of History. H. G. Wells, "It is highly probable that the bulk of the Jew's ancestors 'never' lived in Palestine 'at all,' which witnesses the power of historical assertion over fact."������
In Genesis 3:15 we are told: "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed..." The important thing to note is that there are two lines of descent here - the seed or descendants of the serpent (Satan), and the other, the descendants of Eve (the woman). The word "woman" is used later in Scripture to describe those who comprise God's Kingdom. Satan, also, has a kingdom, for it says in Luke 11:18: "If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand?"
The subjects of his kingdom are obviously the seed of the serpent or Satan. Christ recognized the existence of this evil line when he blamed them for all the blood shed beginning with the slaying of Abel.[39] There are two kingdoms in the world today - the kingdom of good and the kingdom of evil; the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Satan. We know that believers in Christ, or Christians, comprise God's Kingdom, but who are Satan's subjects? Let us see if we can identify them from the Scriptures.
There are a people or race which the Bible speaks of in various places as "enemies" of God, "filthy dreamers," "devils," "serpents," "enemies of all righteousness," "princes of this world," "those that are lost," "vipers," and "contrary to all men."
The blood of the true Judahite, who originally numbered little more than 40,000 had become thoroughly obliterated by the amalgamation of the people of Ashdod, Moabites, Ammonites, Perizzites, Jebuzites, Canaanites, Egyptians, Hittites, Amorites, Amalekites and finally Idumeans. It was the Idumeans who took control of the country of Judea and furnished the Herodian line of rulers.
Following is how the Pharisees came to be in "Moses' Seat" when Christ was born. They had many enemies at the beginning and the Sadducees were the first of these enemies. To see a "small" portion of the distortions of the Pharisees on the Bible, in eliminating the Chief Engineer, the God of Intelligence, planning, approachability is seen under the caption "History of the Pharisees," pages 665‑666, of the Jewish Encyclopedia.
Her brother, Simon ben Shetah, had been waiting for such an opportunity. The continued civil war resulted in the sons of Alexander Jannaeus, Hyrcanus and Aristobulus, in 63 B.C., going hat in hand to Pompey, Caesar's Roman General in Syria, asking him to invade Palestine and slaughter their respective opponents. Following is how Rome happened to be in power when Christ was born.
The full story can be found in the Jewish Encyclopedia under "Pharisees." "It is difficult to state at what time the Pharisees, as a party, arose, Josephus first mentions them in connection with Jonathan, the successor of Judas Maccabeus.[40]
Under John Hyracanus (135‑105 B.C.) they appear as a powerful party opposing the Sadducean proclivities of the king, who had formerly been a disciple of theirs, though the story as told by Josephus is unhistorical.[41] The Hasmonean dynasty, with its worldly ambitions and aspirations, met with little support from the Pharisees, whose aim was the maintenance of a religious spirit in accordance with their interpretation of the Law.
Under Alexander Jannaeus (104‑78 B.C.) the conflict between the people, siding with the Pharisees, and the king became bitter and ended in carnage.[42] Under his window Salome Alexander (78‑69 B.C.), the Pharisees, led by Simeon ben Shetah, came to power; they obtained seats in the Sanhedrin, and that time was afterward regarded as the golden age, full of the blessing of heaven.
But the bloody vengeance they took upon the Sadducees led to a terrible reaction, and under Aristobulus (69‑63 B.C.) The Sadducees regained their power.[43] Amidst the bitter struggle which ensued, the Pharisees appeared before Pompey asking him to interfere and restore the old priesthood while abolishing the royalty of the Hasmoneans altogether.[44]
The defilement of the Temple by Pompey was regarded by the Pharisees as a divine punishment of Sadducean misrule. After the national independence had been lost, the Pharisees gained in influence while the star of the Sadducees waned.
Herod found his chief opponents among the latter, and so he put the leaders of the Sanhedrin to death while endeavoring by a milder treatment to win the favor of the leaders of the Pharisees, who, through they refused to take the oath of allegiance, were otherwise friendly to him,[45] Only when he provoked their indignation by his heathen proclivities did the Pharisees become his enemies and fall victims (4 B.C.) to his bloodthirstiness.[46] But the family of Boethus, whom Herod had raised to the high‑priesthood, revived the spirit of the Sadducees, and thenceforth the Pharisees again had them as antagonists; still, they no longer possessed their former power, as the people always sided with the Pharisees.[47]
In King Agrippa (41‑44 A.D.) the Pharisees had a supporter and friend, and with the destruction of the Temple, the Sadducees disappeared altogether, leaving the regulation of all Jewish affairs in the hands of the Pharisees.
Henceforth Jewish life was regulated by the teachings of the Pharisees; the whole history of Judaism was reconstructed from the Pharisaic point of view, and a new aspect was given to the Sanhedrin of the past. A new chain of tradition supplanted the older, priestly tradition. Pharisaism shaped the character of Judaism and the life and thoughts of the Jews for all the future."
Any Human characteristic such as Intelligence or Love is "obnoxious verbiage" when attributed to God, and was eliminated, explained away, and the shell kept for the Jews "shell game" of cheating the gullible Christian. Attributing Intelligence to God, is to the Jew an "anthropomor�phism," a big word for a pagan idea, the idea that humans alone are intelligent.
Judaism is best described as a rite or compendium of rites, for, if one lends belief to the presentations of the Jewish lawgivers, one must bear in mind that they studied among the initiates of Babylon, and become the pupils of Chaldean magic who were the fathers of Voodooism, a name given to the magic practices and rites taught to the Babylonians by Saragon [Cain].
The closer one studies the history of the Jews, the more clear it appears that they are neither a religious entity nor a nation. The absolute failure of Zionism which has been a desperate effort on the part of certain international Jewish leaders to bind all the Jews of the world into a national entity, whose territory would have been Palestine, proves the futility of such an effort. Judaism is not a religion and the Jews are not a nation, but they are a sect with Judaism as a rite.
The obligations and rules of the rite for the Jewish masses are contained in the Talmud and Schulchan Aruk, but the esoteric teachings for the higher initiates are to be found in the Cabala. Therein are contained the mysterious rites for evocations, the indications and keys to practices for conjuration of supernatural forces, the science of numbers, astrology, etc. Thus, all the vestiges of the ancient religion of Israel had been destroyed except certain ceremonial rites which were still allowed by the Idumeans.
At this point the Jews and Idumeans merged and became as one. The Jewish Encyclopedia 1925 - edition; under "Edom" states, "from this time the Idumeans ceased to be a separate people..."
