How many of you have the Holy Spirit in you? A few? Now, that Holy Spirit that is in you is the Spirit of what God? Israel. The God of? Israel… Israel. So if you are born again believers, sealed with the Holy Spirit of the God of Israel, could it be that you will hate the Jews, the people of Israel? You have no idea how many people go to church on Sunday, claim and proclaim to be Christians, and they hate the Jews.
Now, why is that? It’s because they don’t know the One who is the Holy One of Israel. To them, maybe, He will say, “I never knew you.” It’s obviously people who claim to know Him who say, “Hey, we did this and that in Your name. We know You.” “Well, I don’t know you. How can you do all of this and still hate My brethren?”
In fact, anyone who is left from the tribulation who has come against the brethren of the Lord will not be allowed into the Millennial Kingdom.
The Apostle Paul told Timothy in the last chapter of his final letter that a time would come when men would not endure sound doctrine, but having itching ears they would heap up for themselves teachers and will turn their ears away from the truth and be turned aside to fables. (2 Timothy 4:3-4)
This is consistent with what he wrote to the church at Thessaloniki in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, that before the antichrist could be revealed, there would be a mass defection from truth.
Isaiah 43:2-3
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.”
Malachi 3:6
“For I am the LORD, I do not change; therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.”
If the Lord doesn’t change, then that means He is still the Holy One of Israel, their Savior. It is therefore beyond understanding how so many in the church today deny that modern Israel is biblical Israel or claim that the church has replaced Israel. These are defections from the truth. If the Lord is still the Holy One of Israel and is their Savior, who is the Israel being referred to? It can’t be the church, of which He is the head, because the Jews are an ethnic group and the church is not. The Jews are also the ethnic group through which Jesus, the Holy One of Israel and King of the Jews, entered the world.
If He doesn’t change and He is King of the Jews, how can anyone who calls themself a Christian hate the Jews? To say that God has cast off His chosen people infringes on the omniscience of God. God doesn’t have the character to make wrong choices and to chose Israel and then cast off Israel is completely inconsistent with what we know of His nature. By the way, King Saul is not an example of God choosing and casting off. Saul was the people’s choice; David was God’s.
Jeremiah 31:35-37
Thus says the LORD, Who gives the sun for a light by day, the ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, Who disturbs the sea, and its waves roar (The LORD of hosts is His name): “If those ordinances depart from before Me, says the LORD, then the seed of Israel shall also cease from being a nation before Me forever.” Thus says the LORD: “If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, says the LORD.”
As long as the ordinances established by God at creation continue, we can be assured He has not cast off His chosen people for all that they have done. And if He hasn’t done so, we shouldn’t either. Antisemitism is not a characteristic that should be found among God’s people. It is the doctrine of demons, and its rise is a sign we are in the last days!
Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus,
