I
really get sick every time I hear preachers such as John Hagee and Jerry
Falwell demonize the Arab people, while glorifying the Jews. This is
wrong. The Word of God teaches no such heresy. Deuteronomy 9:6
states, "Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this
good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked
people." The Jews today are as stiffnecked with pride as they
were 3,500 years ago.
The present nation of Israel was secured through tyranny, driving out the Arabs at gun-point, and not by the hand of God. Ezekiel 37:21-23 tell us that the Lord will regather Israel when He returns to reign as King after the Tribulation period. Just as Abraham and Sara decided to take matters into their own hands (i.e., Hagar and Ishmael) instead of waiting for God's promise—so have Zionist Jews today decided to control their own affairs without God.
Sadly, most Jews are hellbound without Christ, following demonic Judaism and the Kaballah instead of the Word of God. Many U.S. Jews are followers of Buddhism, which is why the satanic religion of Buddhism is popular amongst Hollywood actors. No unsaved Jew will ever see the Promised Land (2nd Thessalonians 1:8 applies to Jews too). God is NO respecter of persons (Acts 10:34). Zionism is a false doctrine. What is Zionism? Effectively, it is the teaching that Israel should be treated more special than everyone else. Basically, it is the effort to restore Jews to their homeland in Palestine. Romans 2:11 clearly states that God is NO respecter of persons, and neither should we be. John Hagee is a stooge for wealthy Jews, who keep him rich.
Please don't misunderstand me, I
love Jewish people, but I love Arab people EQUALLY. I'm tired of
preachers stereotyping all Arabs based on the hatred of a few radical
Islamists. As Christians, we all know the pains we endured during the
Jim Bakker days. We are just as wrong to demonize all Arabs, as
unbelievers are to demonize all Christians. The truth is that MOST
Arabs and Jews are unsaved, and BOTH nations are in desperate need of Jesus
Christ.
Many Arabs Have More Morality than Americans and Jews
I was listening to John Hagee preaching the other night, WORLD WAR III HAS BEGUN, with Jerry Falwell by his side. Hagee was saying all sorts of horrible things about the Arabs, and how murderous they are. Then he talked about how great America is, and our friends the Jews. Interestingly, Hagee didn't mention the 50,000,000 abortions in America.
Do some research and you'll find that Americans have murdered 25 times more people through abortion than all the Arab wars combined. In the 8 year Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988) alone, the death toll reached 1,000,000 lives. In those same years, Americans MURDERED over 12,000,000 babies!!! Who's the savages Mr. Hagee? Who's the monsters? Who's crazy and filled with hatred? Please don't misunderstand me, I love America, but I detest and loath the sins of our nation. I'm tired of Zionists trying to paint a picture of Arab people as the scum of the earth.
Biblically, we are ALL hell-deserving sinners, prone to disobedience and
wrath (Ephesians 2:2,3). It is wrong for Christians to continually
attack the Arab people because of their false religion, while overlooking
the false religion of the Jews. The Jews are as messed up as the
Muslim Arabs. Remember, the Arabs are the seed of Abraham too. We should not be biased towards one group over the other. We are to
love all people. To label the Arabs as suicidal maniacs is to indict
ourselves as murderous maniacs (and we Americans have certainly taught the
world how to kill).
Hagee's Teaches the Lordship Salvation Heresy
Hagee is a false prophet who teaches Lordship Salvation, i.e., he requires sinners to forsake their sins to be saved. When the adulterous woman was brought to Jesus in John 8, He never asked her to give up her sins. He forgave her and afterwards admonished her to sin no more. Please read The Curse of Lordship Salvation. Hagee is a false prophet concerning the plan of salvation! Also, please read What is Biblical Repentance?
John Hagee's Delusions
The following quotes are from John Hagee's website... (NOTE: my comments will be in white type)
Everything Christians do should be based upon the Biblical text. Here are seven solid Bible reasons why Christians should support Israel.
Genesis 12:3 "And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee; and in thee shall all nations of the earth be blessed." Point: God has promised to bless the man or nation that blesses the Chosen People. History has proven beyond reasonable doubt that the nations that have blessed the Jewish people have had the blessing of God; the nations that have cursed the Jewish people have experienced the curse of God.
Carefully notice that "thee" is singular and only refers to Abraham. Also, Rome annihilated the Jews in A.D. 70 and lived in splendor for centuries to come.
...Christians owe a debt of eternal gratitude to the Jewish people for their contributions that gave birth to the Christian faith. Jesus Christ, a prominent Rabbi from Nazareth said, "Salvation is of the Jews!" (St. John 4:22) consider what the Jewish people have given to Christianity:
a) The Sacred Scripture
b) The Prophets
c) The Patriarchs
d) Mary, Joseph, and Jesus Christ of Nazareth
e) The Twelve Disciples
f) The ApostlesIt is not possible to say, "I am a Christian" and not love the Jewish people.
Hagee speaks total heresy! How can he idolize the Jews and never say one good word about the Arabs when most Jews today are hellbound Christ-rejecters? Hagee claims that a genuine Christian must love the Jewish people, but what about Africans or Arabs Mr. Hagee? For anyone to teach that we should love Jews above the rest of humanity is wicked. This is Zionism. Why are the Jews so SPECIAL Mr. Hagee? Just because God used Israel for His divine purposes doesn't mean we owe the Jews anything. There ISN'T one Scripture that instructs us to show gratitude towards the Jews for what God has done. Hagee is wrong. All Jesus meant in John 4:22 is that true Salvation is found in the Messiah of Israel.
While some Christians try to deny the connection between Jesus of Nazareth and the Jews of the world, Jesus never denied his Jewishness. He was born Jewish, He was circumcised on the eighth day in keeping with Jewish tradition, He had his Bar Mitzvah on his 13th birthday, He kept the law of Moses, He wore the Prayer Shawl Moses commanded all Jewish men to wear, He died on a cross with an inscription over His head, "King of the Jews!"
Mr. Hagee needs to read Romans 10:12... "For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him." So why does Mr. Hagee glorify Jewish people over others? I am not putting down the Jewish people at all. I am simply saying that, Biblically, Jews are NO BETTER or MORE SPECIAL than anyone else. God offers salvation to all, Gentile or Jew.
Jesus considered the Jewish people His family. Jesus said (Matthew 25:40) "Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren (the Jewish people… Gentiles were never called His brethren), ye have done it unto me."
Mark 3:35 plainly puts Mr. Hagee to shame... "For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother." Shame on you John Hagee for elevating Jews over the Gentiles, by teaching that only the Jews are Jesus' family. Mr. Hagee states above that "Gentiles were never called His brethren." Well, Mark 3:35 makes you a LIAR Mr. Hagee, because Jesus calls every Arab who believes upon Him, His brother. John 6:40 states that God's will is for us to believe on Christ.
Every born-again Arab is part of the family of God, as much as any saved Jew. Galatians 3:7 states, "Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham." Thank God for the many saved Arabs in the world, and saved Jews too.
"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, they shall prosper that love thee." (Psalm 122:6) the scriptural principle of prosperity is tied to blessing Israel and the city of Jerusalem.
That's a lie. Psalm 122:6 promises prosperity to those who love God. Unfortunately most Jews reject Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, and DON'T love God. The same is true of most Arabs. The same is true of most Americans. The same is true of most of the people in this sinful world (1st John 5:19). The notion that there is a special blessing to those who give money to Israel is absurd. U.S. taxpayers give Israel (against our will) about $8,000,000,000 a year, and our dollar has still lost 30% of it's value since the year 2000. Our manufacturing jobs are nearly all gone overseas.
Our federal leaders have squandered our Social Security money, and have recklessly run the nation's debt up over $9,000,000,000,000!!! Blessed? Incidentally, it's Jewish bankers and elite who are behind all this evil. By the way, Karl Marx was Jewish, and based his Communist Manifesto upon the demonic Jewish Talmud. Again, I'm not prejudiced against anyone, but the Jews are no better than anyone else. I don't blame everyday Jewish people for the evils of elite Freemasonry Jews.
Why did Jesus Christ go to the house of Cornelius in Capernaum and heal his servant, which was ready to die? What logic did the Jewish elders use with Jesus to convince Him to come into the house of a Gentile and perform a miracle?
The logic they used is recorded in Luke 7:5; "For He loveth our nation, and He hath built us a synagogue." The message? This Gentile deserves the blessing of God because he loves our nation and has done something practical to bless the Jewish people.
This is an absurd claim. Hagee teaches that the only reason Jesus healed the centurion's servant was because he loved the Jews, and had done something for them. That's crazy! Matthew 8:13 plainly tells us that the Centurion's servant was healed because of FAITH... "And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour." It was the man's FAITH that prompted the Lord to heal the servant, for without faith we cannot please God (Hebrews 11:6). Hagee would actually lead us to believe that by contributing to a godless nation of rebellious Jews that God is going to bless us. You cannot show me that in the Bible.
Why did God the Father select the house of Cornelius in Caesarea (Acts Chapter 10) to be the first Gentile house in Israel to receive the Gospel? The answer is given repeatedly in Acts 10.
Acts 10:2 "a devout man, (Cornelius) and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always." Who were the people to whom Cornelius gave these alms? They were the Jews!
Again, Hagee is perverting the Word of God. Acts 10:2 plainly states that Cornelius was... "A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway." Notice that Hagee ASSUMES that Cornelius is giving alms to the JEWS, but that is not what the Bible says. It says that Cornelius gave alms to THE PEOPLE (Jews and Gentiles). Do you really expect us to believe Mr. Hagee that Cornelius, who feared God, only gave money to Jewish people? No way! Also notice that Cornelius feared God.
I don't care how much money you give to the Jews, or anyone for that matter, God is not going to bless you if you don't fear Him. TV host, Oprah Winfrey, has donated millions of dollars to the poor in Africa, but she promotes godless New Age heresy more than anyone, and certainly does not love the God of the Bible. She is headed for Hell, and her prosperity today is of the Devil.
God told the prophet Jeremiah, concerning the Jews, in Jeremiah 7:16 and 14:11... "Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee... Pray not for this people for their good." The Jews had sinned, and God was angry at them. Do you think the Jews are any better today? They are 100 times worse!!! They still murder their children through abortion, as to Moloch. Jews are no more righteous than the rest of the heathen world, and yet they claim to be God's people. The Jews are saturated with sin today. Jews today still practice idolatry. In fact, it's epidemic! Here's an article written by Jewish Rabbi Shraqa Simmons titled, WHY WE DON'T BELIEVE IN JESUS...
This is the heart of Judaism... CHRIST REJECTION! Lest you should think that only a few Jews believe such Antichrist philosophy, the following quote is taken from the biggest JUDAISM organization in Israel (where I found the above blasphemous article on why they DON'T believe in Jesus)...http://www.aish.com/spirituality/philosophy/Why_Dont_Jews_Believe_In_Jesus$.asp
