Scripture Reading:  John 15:18-25

18) “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.

19) If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

20) Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

21) But all these things will they do unto you for My name’s sake, because they know not Him that sent me.

22) If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.

23) He that hateth Me hateth My Father also.

24) If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both Me and My Father.

25) But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated Me without a cause.”

The nouns that the pronouns are substituting for and a couple of words that are misunderstood by infrequent readers of the Holy Scriptures are supplied to make the sentences easier to interpret and understand. This must be done by each reader if he desires to know what these verses are trying to tell us. Who are the individuals who hate Jesus the Christ, His Father and His followers?

18) “If the world [society] hate you [Israelites], ye [Israelites] know that it hated Me [Jesus the Christ] before it hated you [Israelites].

19) If ye [Israelites] were of the world [society], the world [society] would love His own; but because ye [Israelites] are not of the world [society], but I have chosen you [Israelites] out of the world [society], therefore the world [society] hateth you [Israelites].

20) “Remember the word that I [Jesus the Christ] said unto you [Israelites], The servant is not greater than his lord. If they [jews] have persecuted Me [Jesus the Christ], they [jews] will also persecute you [Israelites]; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also.

21) But all these things will they [jews] do unto you for My [Jesus the Christ] name’s sake, because they [jews] know not Him [God the Father] that sent Me [Jesus the Christ].

22) If I [Jesus the Christ] had not come, and spoken unto them [jews], they [jews] had not had sin [error]: but now they [jews] have no cloke for their [jews] sin [error].

23) He [of the jews] that hateth Me [Jesus the Christ] hateth My Father also.

24) If I [Jesus the Christ] had not done among them [jews] the works which none other man did, they [jews] had not had sin [error]: but now have they [jews] both seen and hated both Me [Jesus the Christ] and My Father.

25) But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their [jews] law, They [jews] hated Me [Jesus the Christ] without a cause.”

I am interrupting my Deuteronomy series to compile some of my arguments I will be using in this case which is just next month. After talking with the prisoners’ lawyer by phone, he said that the judge was open-minded. The prosecutors had asked that the case be dismissed, but the judge refused. The upcoming court case in the state of Michigan is to determine whether the prisoners in Michigan will be allowed to hold services under the Christian-Identity banner. There are jewish synagogue meetings, Muslim worship meetings, Judeo-Christian services, Roman Catholics have their mass, but no Christian-Identity meetings are allowed in Michigan reformatories at the present time.

The reasons for and against will be discussed to determine if they are allowed to worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The court has quoted the Jewish Southern Poverty Law Center in stating that Christian-Identity is a “hate group” and therefore is not considered to be a valid means of worshipping God in Michigan’s prison system.

The case will be held at:

United State District Court

Western District of Michigan

601 Ford Federal Building

110 Michigan, NW

Grand Rapids, Michigan

At: 8:30 AM

Beginning date: August 13, 2018

Ending date: Could last two days

It is an open trial.

I am taking Mark’s place as an “expert witness” for the prisoners’ right to worship the God who brought our ancestors out of Egypt. Mark started the process with the prisoners and would have been the “expert witness” if he wouldn’t have passed away. Mark would have done a tremendous job. My job is to remember all of Mark’s work in bringing God’s Word to the many prisoners throughout the United States. I have read the testimony of many prisoners who thanked Mark, before his death, saying that he was the means that God used to turn their lives around.

How could the prisoners worship another god that all the other groups are worshipping? We have a pluralistic religious system in the country as well as the prison: Muslims, Roman Catholics, Judaism, Judeo-Christians, etc. The prisoners would violate the first commandment:

Exodus 20:1-3:

1) “And God spake all these words, saying,

2) I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3) Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.”

This is a law case that should not be determined by what either side thinks or believes. It’s not a matter of just religious conviction and church tradition. It must be determined by what the Holy Scriptures say to the individuals who believe them. Sola Scriptura.

So, the determination of this case will be if:

  1. You believe in what the Bible says; or
  2. You don’t believe the Bible is the Word of God, or
  3. You have a different interpretation of the Bible, or
  4. You believe the Bible is the Word of God, but you have never read it all the way through, or
  5. You believe in the Talmud, or Kabballah or tradition of the elders.

If you believe in the Bible, then you will agree with most of what Christian-Identity teaches. If you don’t believe in the Bible, then you disagree with most of what Christian-Identity churches teach. If you believe in the Talmud, or Kabballah you not only fail to believe what we teach, but you believe the opposite viewpoint. You will not only disagree with our viewpoints, you will call us an “anti-Semite” and a “holocaust denier”.

For example, Christian-Identity disagrees with aborticide, or as it is more commonly called, abortion. Why do we disagree with what was made legal in the United States in 1973? Because the Bible says that no Israelite should be a participate in cold-blooded murder. And abortion is murder of a totally defenseless baby that is in the womb. We believe that the Bible teaches that life begins at conception.

If you disagree with that statement, you may state that it isn’t really a baby, it is a fetus. So, the woman is only agreeing to have her fetus eliminated, not murdering her baby. But the Bible doesn’t teach that, so you are relying on another source for your information.

Or if you believe the Talmud, it says that it is okay for an individual to murder the “fruit of the womb.” Jewish law does not share the belief common among those who oppose abortion that life begins at conception, nor does it legally consider the fetus to be a full person deserving of protections equal those accorded to human beings. In Jewish law, a fetus attains the status of a full person only at birth.

Sources in the Talmud indicate that prior to 40 days of gestation, the fetus has an even more limited legal status, with one Talmudic authority (Yevamot 69b) asserting that prior to 40 days the fetus is “mere water.” Elsewhere, the Talmud indicates that the ancient rabbis regarded a fetus as part of its mother throughout the pregnancy, dependent fully on her for its life—a view that echoes the position that women should be free to make decisions concerning their own bodies.

So, what you believe on abortion is determined by what you believe is the source of all wisdom: The Bible, yourself, other experts, Talmud, etc. That is one reason the United States of America is split on the answer to this question. We have many diverse kinds of multi-cultural individuals now believing in one of these primary sources for their views. The Bible is no longer the source of our wisdom. We are ignorant of what the Bible teaches, so we lack wisdom.

In the first book of the Bible, Genesis, God gives the penalty to the serpent (devil) for seducing Eve.

Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity between thee [serpent] and the woman [Eve], and between thy [serpent] seed and her [Eve] seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise His heel.”

Many Bible commentaries state that this was a natural enmity between the children of Satan and the children of God. In our eight introductory verses from the book of John, Christ repeatedly stated that there would be hatred toward the followers of Himself. For whoever hated Him, would hate the ones who believed on Him, who were the Israelites.

Now, this brings us to a most fascinating consideration? Why is there so much hatred against Christian-Identity that a few prisoners, who believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, are not allowed to have worship services in the Michigan jails? There are worship services provided for Jews, Muslims, Judeo-Christians, Roman Catholics, etc.; but Christian-Identity services are forbidden. Why?

According to the “supposed expert in hate groups”, the Southern Poverty Law Center, located in Birmingham, Alabama, there are less than 20 known Christian-Identity churches in America. I know a few more than they know, but there aren’t very many at all. Why do they refer to us as “hate groups” but leave the much bigger “hate groups” out? They, themselves, are a member of a much larger hate group? It’s like the pot calling the kettle black. It’s like our Savior described them; “hypocrites.”

Are they fearful that this very small, mostly old group of church members are going to rise up and fight the vast, modern armies of the United States of America? Nonsense. You mean the Fellowship of God’s Covenant People is going to challenge the United States Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and National Guard in a war? Or are we going to fight with a couple of revolvers against the SWAT teams as they aim their modern weapons against us.

No, we do not teach any such nonsense. We do teach that we will be saved by the LORD God of Israel and that the one-world beast system will not destroy our race. They will fail. How do I know this? Because the Bible tell us that as long as the sun comes up each morning, and sets each evening, there will always be an Israel. As in the flood of Noah, the enemies of God will not have the success of totally eliminating the white race.

Is the SPLC fearful that we are the covenant people of God and that we have the message of the “gospel of the kingdom” that both Jesus the Christ and His apostles proclaimed to the house of Judah and the house of Israel? I believe that this is the case, for it doesn’t matter how many or how few the number of people are that believe in Christian-Identity. Whoever is on God’s side will be the victors.

How many Egyptians were killed by the Israelites as they escaped slavery in Egypt? How many Assyrians were killed by the Israelites as they surrounded Jerusalem waiting for starvation to finally flush the Judahites out to destruction? How many Israelites killed the armies of the Edomties, the Ammonites, and the Moabites as the choir of Judah led the armies under Jehoshaphat to battle? The answer is none. These victories were not the Israelites’, but God’s.

Reading from the SPLC’s website, “Christian Identity is a unique anti-Semitic and racist theology that rose to a position of commanding influence on the racist right in the 1980s. ‘Christian’ in name only, the movement’s relationship with evangelicals and fundamentalists has generally been hostile due to the latter’s belief that the return of Jews to Israel is essential to the fulfillment of end-time prophecy. Of all the movements that have appeared among white racists in America, Christian Identity is surely one of the strangest.”

Our answer to the SPLC’s charges:

  1. Christian-Identity has never been, isn’t now, and never shall be anti-Semitic. The SPLC is anti-Semitic. Who are the Semites? They are the descendants of Shem, one of the three sons of Noah. The Jews, in their own accepted writings, state that only about seven percent of the Jewish people have been descended from Shem, but they are from an adulterous relationship. Over 93% of Jewish people are related to Japheth (another one of the three sons of Noah).

    So, none of the mongrel Jewish people are the true pure descendants of Shem. Now, why does the SPLC say we are anti-Semitic? Christian-Identity believes that both the Bible and history teach that the Semitic people of today are the Caucasian race or the White race. We are not anti-ourselves. Anti-Semitism, as used by the Jewish power structure, means “anti-Jewish.” That is what they really mean, and that is what Christian-Identity is: we are “anti-Jewish.” We are not anti-Semitic because we are Semitic.

  2. The SPLC accused Christian-Identity wrongly of being anti-Semitic but they were correct when they accused us of being a racist theology. But again, they don’t mention that they are racist too. Anyone who believes what the Bible says has racist views. So, when the YWCA states that their mission is to eliminate racism, they are really saying that their mission is to eliminate the Bible’s teachings. The Bible indicates its racist theology by saying:
    • I am the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”
    • I am the God of your fathers.”
    • Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.”
    • Who against hope believed in hope, that He might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, [Genesis 15:5] So shall thy seed be.” (Romans 4:18).
    • James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes [of Israel] which are scattered abroad, greeting” (James 1:1).

The above are all racist statements. Racism isn’t a bad word. Notice, it doesn’t say:

  • “I am the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac and Esau.” Or “I am the LORD God of Abraham and Ishmael.” Or “I am the LORD God of Japheth, Attila the Hun, and the Ashkenazi’s.”
  • “I am the LORD God of everyone in the earth.”
  • “It is not the seed of Jacob/Israel, but it is the seed of the Africans, Asians, and mongrel Jewish people of the earth.”
  • “James to all the people of the earth, including the Incas, the Eskimos, the Zulus, and the New Guinea natives.”

Christian-Identity teaches that the regathering of the Jewish, mostly Ashkenazi groups of individuals to Palestine, is a complete fraud. The Ashkenazi people were never living in Palestine in the entire history of the world until the Jewish powers decreed it necessary to remove the Arab people. It will be a repeat of what happened in 70 AD.

Christian-Identity is strange to most Christians. Yes, it is. It was strange to me. I grew up in a free-will Northern Community Baptist Church that had freemasons running the church. I never heard of what they believed until I was in my 20’s. It has taken me over 50 years to come to understand a part of God’s truth. Christian-Identity doesn’t claim to be all-knowing, but it knows enough truth that it is strange to the average American Christian.

There are other strange events happening in the world. For example, the average American does not know that there were three towers that fell on 9/11/2001, not two. That there were no parts of any airplane that were recovered at the destruction of the Pentagon. That there was no recovery of any of the black boxes, that are practically indestructible, from any of the planes that supposedly crashed that day. There is a small hole where a plane was supposed to have crashed. There were no remains of anything. No luggage, no airplane parts, no engine, no fuselage, no wings, no bodies; nothing.

And our government built a monument at that site which gives record that it is the place where the plane crashed. The individual who was accused of planning all this destruction was a business oil partner of the President of the United States. He was on dialysis. He was later murdered in a raid in Afghanistan by American elite forces and thrown into the sea as his burial site. Nineteen Arab men were identified in a poster as being the men who stole the airplanes and flew them into the twin towers, the pentagon, and into the hole in Pennsylvania. But half the Arabs on the poster identified themselves as still being alive. And most of them were Saudi Arabians. So, the President immediately said that he knows who did all of this and attacks Iraq, because “they have weapons of mass destruction”. Now that is strange, very strange.

The Southern Poverty Law Center believes in the Talmud or Kabballah. They don’t believe in the Bible. So, why do they hate the very, very small number of churches of Christian-Identity? Even though they say that there are less than twenty small churches in America, they fear that they are the closest to the truth of what Jesus taught. Less than twenty small churches and they act like they are the most dangerous groups in the nation. Most dangerous to who? To the Jewish power.

What most Christians are unaware of is that the Jewish people consider themselves to be superior to all other kindreds and tongues on the surface of the earth. The Talmud refers to all non-Jewish people as being subhuman, all the while claiming the Jews are the chosen ones. That means that all blacks, all browns, all reds, and all whites are to be their (Jewish) slaves in the new- world order in which they (Jews) are the rulers. That is not “White superiority”, but “Jewish superiority!”

The Jews are the perennially persecuted, pious and peaceful victims of all non-Jews, notably of Christians and Muslims. They have historically regarded themselves with self-pity as a long-suffering, brutalized, and impending global messiah. And remember, to criticize Israeli, the country of the mongrel Jews, no matter how great and obvious is their crime, means that you are immediately called an “anti-Semite” and a “holocaust denier”.

In our verses in the book of John, it stated the warning given by Christ himself, that whoever persecuted Him would persecute His followers. Whoever hated Him would hate His followers. And from the verse in Genesis, it states that there would be enmity between two seedlines that would never go away until the end of this age. That means that they would have enmity toward each other till the age ended. And that is because one of them would be gone at the end of the age.

Now, the question: Who persecuted Jesus Christ? We have two groups of people in these verses:

  1. They”, and
  2. You.”

“If they have persecuted Me, they will persecute you.” There is no disagreement on who the “Me” is in this sentence. It is the LORD God of Israel. This is where the disagreement comes from: who persecuted Jesus the Christ? The Bible says it was the Jews. The Roman Catholic Church used to say it was the Jews, but now their present Jesuit Pope says it was the Romans. It’s not the Africans, not the Asians, not the Pacific Islanders, not anyone else, but the people called today, the Jews.

And those who persecuted Him also hated both He and His father and know not Him that sent Jesus. Have Christians been deluded into thinking that the Jews worship God the Father? Christ says they do not know Him. Any minister who teaches that the Jews may not like Jesus, but that they love God, the Father, is a liar.

Christian-Identity teaches it is hatred that the Jews have toward Israelite/Christians. How foolish is it to think that we can preach to the enemies of Jesus the Christ (the SPLC and the ADL are their spokesmen) and convert them? If God’s Holy Word says it won’t be done; then it won’t be done. Jesus the Christ said to the Edomite Jews that they “…would not hear His words.”

And the Talmud agrees. It teaches that our blessed Kinsman-Redeemer was “born of a prostitute mother;” Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a prostitute! That should make every Roman Catholic have smoke of anger coming out of their noses.

“His illegitimate birth was by the seducer by the name of Panthera, a soldier of Rome. Jesus was a bastard who was guilty of blasphemy and idolatry. Jesus in now in hell, boiling in a cauldron of hot semen.”

That should have every true Christian demanding that all Jews should be expelled from their nations! Do you know individuals who got punched in the nose for saying something that was 1/10 as bad as what the Jews say about our Savior that was said about their own mother? Every Christian should be very, very upset by what these Jewish “holy” books state about our Savior. The Talmud says that Jesus the Christ is not on the right hand of the God the Father, but is in HELL!

WHO ARE THE JEWS?

In the best-selling book by Herman Wouk, which ran serially in the New York Herald in November of 1959, he said:

“The Talmud is to this day the circulating heart’s blood of the Jewish religion. Whatever laws, customs, or ceremonies we observe—whether we are Orthodox, Conservative, Reformed or merely spasmodic sentimentalists—we follow the Talmud. It is our common law.”

Why, in European history, when the laws of the Talmud became commonly known, was it burned by Christian Churches. And they not only burned the Jewish unholy books, they exiled the Jews. There have been 109 countries that have expelled the Jews since the year 250 AD. Countries such as Prussia, France, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, Netherlands and England are a few of the 109 countries. England kicked the Jews out from 1290 AD till 1650s AD; about 360 years. Why were they kicked out? The were expelled for a longer time than the United States has been a nation!

Was there a valid reason? All those countries that exiled them must have had a reason. Maybe they discovered what the Talmud said. Today, most Christians don’t even know what the Talmud is and what it says.

One thing in the Talmud is “…every vow which I may make in the future shall be null [his vows are then invalid].” This is the Kol Nidre vow. The Talmud teaches that the Jews can lie for a year and then make the vow once again. Our Savior referred to the Edomite Jews as being “liars.” He understood the spoken mouth to mouth tradition of the elders that became the written Talmud.

WHO DOES THE BIBLE SAY ARE THE JEWS?

The descendants of Cain [Kenites] were cursed. The descendants of Canaan [Canaanites] were cursed. The descendants of Esau [Edomites] were cursed. And the curses were never lifted. The descendants of these three groups are still cursed. The Canaanites intermarried with the Kenites. Esau intermarried with the Canaanites. Who are these people today?

Where in the Bible is the first place that Jews are mentioned? Is it in Genesis? Exodus? Leviticus? Numbers? Deuteronomy? Joshua? Judges? Ruth? 1 Samuel? 2 Samuel? 1 Kings? 2 Kings? It is not till the 12th book of the Bible?

That means the Bible tells us that Abraham wasn’t a Jew. Isaac wasn’t a Jew. Jacob wasn’t a Jew. Joseph wasn’t a Jew. The twelve sons of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel, weren’t Jews. Joshua wasn’t a Jew. The judges weren’t Jews. King Saul wasn’t a Jew. King David wasn’t a Jew. Solomon wasn’t a Jew. The first place that the word “Jews” is used is in 2 Kings 16:6.

2 Kings 16:6 “At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drove the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there to this day.”

Who was on the side of King Rezin of Syria who drove the Jews from the city of Elath?

2 Kings 16:5 “The Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.”

Syria and Israel were in a war against Judah. They couldn’t overcome Judah, so Syria went further south and captured from the “Jews” the city of Elath. What people lived in Elath? The Edomties.

Who does the Bible say attempted to kill Jesus? We read in the Gospels the first attempt to kill Jesus. In the second chapter of Matthew we find that the Edomite King Herod of Jerusalem attempted to trick the Israelite Wise Men into revealing the location of the child Jesus. When God prevented that, we find that Herod was exceedingly wroth, and sent forth and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under in a vain attempt to kill the young Jesus.

In the Gospel of Mark, it tells of the healing of a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath day, following which the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him (Mark 3:1-6). So, here we see the Pharisees planning with others to kill Jesus. The Herodians are identified in secular history as Edomites.

After another healing, we read in John 5, And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay Him…[and]…sought the more to kill Him, because He not only had broken the Sabbath, but said also that God was His father (John 5:16-18). John 8:59 says, “Then took they [scribes and Pharisees] up stones to cast at Him….”

Many other instances of thwarted attempts by the religious leaders to kill Jesus in Jerusalem are described in all four Gospels. The situation became so bad that John says in:

John 7:1 “After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill Him.”

Who does the Bible say is guilty of wanting to murder Jesus the Christ? Was it the blacks? No. Was it the Asians? No. Was it the Pacific Islanders? No. Was it the Whites? No. It was the mongrel Jews.

Who were the Edomites, Herodians, scribes and Pharisees? The Edomites were descendants of Esau. The Herodians were the Edomite family that ruled Israel during the time of Jesus’ earthly ministry and the first century Christian church. The Jewish ruling council, called Sanhedrin, was under the authority of the Herods, who were in turn under the authority of the Roman emperor. Most of the Scribes and Pharisees were Edomites who had gained control of Judah after the nation of Edom had been given the choice to observe Israelite rites and laws. They were then incorporated with the nation of Judah, though as second-class citizens. They shortly gained control of the kingship, priesthood and became many of the Pharisees, scribes and Sadducees.

So, it was the descendants of Esau/Canaanites/Kenites, the blood-line of three cursed people, who were persecuting Jesus the Christ and His followers. But how could that be? We are told that the Jews are the covenant people of God. It is Jews who are descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. We have two groups of people who are both claiming to be the covenant people of God. Who do you believe? Or do you believe that it is someone else?

Jerusalem, in the days of Jesus’ ministry, was like New York City is today. There were more non-Israelites, mainly Jews, living there than Israelites. Even Jesus Christ did not live in Jerusalem. He lived in Galilee, which was to the north of Jerusalem. This was where most of the refugees from the southern kingdom of Judah lived—Judah, Levi and Benjamin.

Jerusalem was full of Edomites and “bad fig” Judeans. That is, mixed-seed individuals from the kingdom of Judah. Jesus Christ wasn’t a Jew, He was like his brethren--an Israelite. And the Edomite rulers of Palestine (both religious and political) wanted to keep their power and authority secure, so they wanted Jesus to die.

Why would anyone want to kill a person who had no sin? Jesus never committed a sin. He was the perfect sacrifice for His sinful people. Esau had sold his birthright and lost the blessing of his father. As a result, he married into the line of the forbidden Canaanites, and his mongrel offspring were forbidden the blessings of Almighty God. Esau’s descendants were no longer a part of the covenant seed of Jacob, but they were enemies of their twin brother’s seed.

But where were the rest of the covenant people? The tribes of Manasseh, Ephraim, Naphtali, Asher, Zebulon, Issachar, Reuben, Gad, Simeon, and Dan. Where were these ten tribes of the northern kingdom? They were not in Jerusalem or even Palestine. In fact, very few of the tribes of Judah, Levi and Benjamin were there either. There were over 1,000,000 Edomite Jews living in Palestine, and they wanted Jesus the Christ murdered.

The Jews falsely claim to be the descendants of Judah, Levi and Benjamin. The Shelahites are the adulterous offspring of Judah with a Canaanite woman. But there is no Jew in their right mind who claims to be a descendant of the other tribes. Why? Because the Jews were not where the 10 tribes were at this time. The Edomite Jews had taken over the kingdom of God by force and were the rulers in Palestine.

Did Jesus know who His enemies were? He most certainly did. The Bible is full of His encounters with them:

The “woes” that Jesus said about the scribes and the Pharisees. In Mathew 23 it records eight woes against the Pharisees:

  1. Antagonism to God
  2. Hypocrisy
  3. Damnation of souls
  4. False vows
  5. Outward show
  6. False cleanings
  7. Self-righteousness
  8. Boasting and self-conceit

Jesus also warned His followers “to beware of the leaven [doctrine] of the Pharisees.”

  • Jesus and his disciples traveled to Jerusalem for Passover, where Jesus expels the merchants and money changers from the Temple, accusing them of turning the Temple into “a den of thieves” through their commercial activities. In the Gospel of John Jesus refers to the Temple as “My Father’s house”, thus, making a claim to being the Son of God. Who were the moneychangers? The Edomite Jews.
  • Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, and consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty and kill Him(Matthew 26:3,4).

That is a pretty plain testimony, is it not? Describing the actual capture, Matthew writes:

“And while He yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people” (Matthew 26:47).

  • Jesus told the twelve disciples of His coming death, and He named the men who would cause it. “From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto His disciples, how that He must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day” (Matthew 16:21).
  • And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on Him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that He had spoken this parable against them” (Luke 20:19). They understood that Jesus knew it was they who would attempt to kill Him.
  • After Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead we find that “then gathered the chief priest and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? For this man doeth many miracles. If we let Him thou alone, all men will believe on Him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation” (John 11:47, 48).

In verse 53 it says, “Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put Him [Jesus] to death.”

This hatred for Jesus became so well known in Judea that we read that “no man spake openly of Him [Jesus] for fear of the Jews” (John 7:13).

Richard Kelly Hoskins, another person the SPLC has splattered with the title of “hate group”, but without any mention of who he hates, said: The United States has become “a political subdivision ruled by Edom.” Look at the last election. Both Hillary and Donald have children who have married into the Jewish criminal blood lines. Both of their daughter’s father-in-law served time in prison for fraudulent money schemes. Who were their campaign managers, and who are there circle of advisors? Jews.

Will Israelites soon wake-up to the promises that our God has made with our fathers? One promise was their seed would be in the last days “a company of nations,” and “a great people” …now who are they? They are not Israeli. Sola Scriptura!

To be continued.

Blessed be the LORD God of Israel.
