- Anti-Semitism is the racist belief that Jews are genetically
evil and subversive and should be persecuted. This is what Hitler believed.
-
- Today, the term "anti-Semitism" has been broadly
misdefined for use as a political weapon, to silence any criticism of Israel,
Judaism, or liberal Jewish activism. Those who make the simplest statements
of unflattering truth about Israeli or Jewish actions are smeared as anti-Semites.
-
- Webster's New 20th Century Dictionary
fuels such confusion; it misdefines anti-Semitism as "prejudice against
Jews; dislike or fear of Jews or Jewish things (emphasis mine)." This
broad definition makes it anti-Semitic to dislike or fear such venerable
"Jewish things" as the Talmud and Kabbalah. No one disliked these
twisted teachings of the ancient Pharisees more than Jesus Christ. Webster
would make Him one of the world's worst anti-Semites!
-
- This is far from the truth. The Bible teaches that it
is loving, not persecutive, to reprove any sinner or group of sinners (2
Tim. 4:2). The Bible also forbids racial favoritism in the giving of such
truth (James 2:1). The prophets, and Christ Himself, vehemently criticized
the Jewish people and their leaders for sin.
-
- Their concern was motivated by the love that St. Paul
expressed for the Jews when he wrote, "My heart's desire and my prayer
for them is for their salvation." (Rom. 10:1) All these loving truthtellers
keenly anticipated the day when a remnant of Israel will repent and be
restored to Christ at His second coming.
-
- Yet, today, any leader who criticizes Israel or Jewish
activists is in danger of being ruined by the charge of anti-Semitism.
While Christian leaders and the secular media openly criticize Islam, they
carefully protect the dark side of Judaic ethics and Zionist history from
exposure. This enables the government of Israel to act without substantive
moral oversight. Such favoritism also empowers liberal Jewish activists
to pursue their anti-Christian agenda hidden from public view.
-
- Concerned and careful thinkers should object to irresponsible
charges of anti-Semitism and define this term correctly. Clarity is vitally
important because the same Jewish leadership that Christ attacked is still
in the world, deceiving a majority of both the Jewish people and Christian
evangelicals.
-
- Last year, Rabbi Daniel Lapin warned that "secular
Judaism" is "in relentless attack on evangelical Christians."
Most assaults against Christian symbols and values come from Jewish activists
or Jewish-led "civil liberties" groups like the Anti-Defamation
League of B'nai B'rith, the ACLU, People for the American Way, and the
Southern Poverty Law Center (See, <http://truthtellers.org/alerts/acluheavywithjews.html>ACLU
Top Heavy with Jews, <http://truthtellers.org/alerts/afacademynotfree.html>Correction:
Speech at Air Force Academy Not Free, <http://truthtellers.org/alerts/bookofdaniel.html>Who's
Behind NBC's 'Book of Daniel'?, <http://truthtellers.org/alerts/behinddavinci.html>The
Jews Behind Da Vinci Code).
-
- ADL/B'nai B'rith has destroyed freedom of speech in more
than a dozen countries through the "anti-hate" laws they designed.
As a result of liberal Jewish activism, many unjustly blame "the Jews"
in general for widespread anti-Christianity and attacks on freedom. Such
resentment, especially in Europe, could result in anti-Semitic violence
in the years ahead. Anti-Semitism is also fueled by Israeli policies which
go uncriticized out of fear of the "anti-Semite" slur.
-
- Considering Jewish activism's threat to Christianity,
freedom, and Jewish welfare, how would Christ and the prophets respond
to evil Jewish leaders and activists today? They would surely follow the
Bible's commands for godly and loving reproof of sin. Such reproof creates
the possibility that Jews may spend eternity in heaven and be spared much
grief in this life as well.
