Why Anti-Semitism?



Why Do They Always Want to Kill the Jews?
 
In the simplest of terms, anti-Semitism is from the devil—it’s his survival plan.

From Genesis 3:15, the gauntlet was thrown down between the serpent and the Jews. It would be the “seed of the woman,” the Messiah,who would crush the serpent’s head.
From what people would this Messiah come?  
“...salvation is from the Jews” (John 4:22).
Generation after generation throughout history, satan has sought to exterminate the Jews. In the time of Moses, he influenced Pharaoh to murder all the male babies at the time of the deliverer’s birth. In Esther’s day, Haman plotted to have all the Jews of Persia annihilated.
Because his fate is sealed in the Word of God, he could not succeed, and the Messiah of Israel was born. Yeshua (Jesus) fulfilled His days, died, and rose from the grave according to prophecy, and set the captives of Hades free.
Yet the devil is still after the Jews, isn’t he? Why is that?

The story isn’t over. God has promised throughout the Bible to preserve Israel, His People—for His own Name’s sake.

THEY ARE A SIGN OF THE EXISTENCE AND FAITHFULNESS OF GOD TO THE WORLD, and to the veracity of the Bible!


When King Frederick the Great of Prussia asked his Lutheran pastor to provide him with visible proof of God’s existence, he answered with just two words: “The Jews.”



The Jews and Israel are not only in the beginning of the Bible, but their prophetic future continues to unfold right through to the New Jerusalem, with Yeshua, Son of David, Lion of of the Tribe of Judah.



If satan were to succeed in wiping out the very nation that God promised to preserve,
he would prove God to be untrustworthy and a liar—and the Bible to be a book of lies.


This truth: “I will bless those who bless you, and curse those who curse you...” (Genesis 12:3) is why no nation that harms the Jewish People can be blessed. As has been illustrated by the Philistines, Assyrians, Babylonians, Romans, Germany, the former Soviet Union and most stunningly, the British Empire. Almighty God will turn a destructive hand to the nation or culture who curse His Children.


And so beware even today of those in Christian garb who would take from the Jewish People God’s promises of a future Land and their reigning Messiah. Satan will be active to the end trying to destroy both; even as he is now by spreading through Christian ranks the damnable doctrines of Replacement Theology and Palestinian Liberation Theology. Neither God’s Chosen People, with their unique and special place in the Divine plan of God, nor their future King will be overcome.

It is because of this that no Christian should ever have anything to do with any form of anti-Semitism. It is anti-God—originating with the very enemy of God, that ancient serpent, the father of lies.

Insight to Anti-Semitism

"...they are the bearers of God’s word. And deep down in our hearts we hate them for it. For we hate God and do not want to follow His Law."

Pierre van Paassen, Zionist and uniquely insightful European war correspondent recalls the words of a visiting Huguenot minister to his family home in Holland following a prayer meeting for the return of the People of Israel to their Holy Land. Caspar Daubenton’s words carried the clear-sighted edge of the prophetic to fifteen year old Pierre in 1910, who would witness their unfolding in the decades to come.

“There is,” he said, “a mystery about the people of the Jews, a mystery which both attracts and repels us. Sometimes I think,” he went on, “that the mystery resides in the fact that they, unconsciously perhaps, as a people, are the bearers of God’s word. We know they are... We feel they are. And deep down in our hearts we hate them for it. For we hate God and do not want to follow His Law. In their mere presence there lies always, I find, a subtle, often unavowed and undefinable challenge to us, something of a reproof, an accusation. They remind us of something of which we do not like to be reminded.

I think,” he said, “that there sits the core of the secret of Jewish persecution in Christian lands.”

And then he went on to speak about the dread possibility of that mentally reserved hatred awaking some day in Europe. “Some incident, insignificant in itself,” I remember him saying “may very well bring it into the open. Not long ago we saw it come snarling to the surface with Dreyfus affair in a country as civilized as France. Who knows when and where it will break out again? And so long as that hatred persists in our hearts,” he said gravely, “the Jews are not safe anywhere, not in Russia, not in Germany, not in Holland, or in that far-off America to which so many of them are fleeing these days from Russia.”
