ANTISEMITISM

 

Do you hate or dislike Jews ?  This mental condition is called antisemitism.  It is the same thing as hating or disliking black people or any other racial group.  Idiots hate or dislike people sometimes for no other reason than they are an idiot but sometimes for reasons that are baseless and lies invented by people who do have hatred in them for a particular race of people.  

There are people who say either the holocaust never happened or wasn’t as bad as history records.  I would suggest to these types of people that they do some research.  There are extensive records by the Nazis, literally millions of pages of documents, that thoroughly document this genocide of the Jewish people.  Physical evidence remains to this day in the concentration camps, death camps, with gas chambers, crematoriums and mass graves; undeniable evidence of industrial scale mass murder.

The testimony of survivors, allied liberators, civilian observers and the perpetrators themselves have given comprehensive accounts establishing the fact that mass murder on a scale never seen before in modern times occurred at the six Nazi death camps; Auschwitz, Belzec, Chelmno, Majdanek, Sobibor and Treblinka.  There were other camps that used forced labor like Dachau and Buchenwald.  A consensus among historians places the number of Jewish people killed at six million.  

People have asked why did the holocaust happen ?

In Deuteronomy 28:1-68  are the blessings and cursings that GOD explained to ancient Israel.  The blessings were contingent upon Israel’s obedience to everything that GOD commanded them to do. If Israel was disobedient there would be curses put on them.  Deuteronomy 28:1-14 contains the blessings but from verse 15-68 are the curses.  I strongly recommend that you read Deuteronomy and pay careful attention to what it means. 

In Deuteronomy 28:46 “These curses will be a SIGN AND A WONDER upon you and your descendants FOREVER.”  

Yes, GOD was extremely angry at Israel for their disobedience and not for just a few by many times Israel went after other gods and committed horrible atrocities and rebelled against GOD.  These curses did fall upon Israel and the history of the people of Israel is fraught with danger and persecution.

Leviticus 26:1-39 has another account of the blessings and cursings.  Near the end of this chapter beginning in verse 40 to 45 GOD gives hope to the Israelites who repent of their sins against HIM. 

Leviticus 26:45 “But for their sake I will remember the covenant with their fathers (Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations that I might be their GOD. I am YAHWEH.”

GOD has not forsaken Israel and has future plans to resurrect all of them, bring them back to mortal life again in the second resurrection so they may have their first opportunity to truly know their GOD and HIS son Jesus Christ.

Ezekiel 37:3 “Son of man, can these bones live ?

Ezekiel 37 is the account of the valley of dry bones where GOD resurrects the whole house of Israel. 

Ezekiel 37:11 “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel.”

At this future day GOD will convert Israel by giving all of them HIS Holy Spirit and they will finally know GOD.

Ezekiel 37:13 “Then you my people will know that I am YAHWEH….”

Ezekiel 37:14 “I will put MY spirit in you and you will live…..”

If GOD ALMIGHTY is willing to forgive and heal the people of Israel, the Jews, then perhaps you should reconsider your hatred or dislike of the Jews.  You know, you are no better than the Jews, because all people have sinned and deserve death.  What happened to ancient Israel serves as an example to ALL PEOPLE that GOD is a merciful and forgiving GOD and not just to the Jews, a tribe of the Israel but to all Israel and gentiles alike. 

1 Corinthians 10:6-11 “Now these things happened to them (Israel) to show us that we should not lust after evil things as they did. And not become idolaters as were some of them. As it is written, the people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. Nor let us commit sexual immorality as some of them did and in one day 23,000 died. Nor let us tempt Christ as some of them tempted GOD and were destroy by serpents nor complain as some of them who were destroyed by the destroyer. Now all these things happen to them (Israel) AS EXAMPLES, written for our benefit upon whom the ends of the ages have come.”

No one should think more highly of themselves over other people because you are in the same boat as they are.  You are just as much a sinner as they are. You deserve punishment just as they did. BUT just as GOD intends to show Israel mercy in the future HE may show you mercy now if you show mercy to others.  

James 2:13 “Because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment.”

If you, Jew hater, want GOD to be merciful to you then you need to be merciful to all people just as GOD is merciful to all. 

Hate is the opposite of GODS love. Did not Jesus say, “love GOD and your neighbor as yourself” ?

Now, there are people on the internet and television that are antisemitic and are engaged in slander against the Jewish people.  They talk about the “protocols of the elders nod Zion”, they lie about the terrorist attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, they support known terrorist groups that not only hate and desire to destroy Israel but also the United States or any nation that will not submit to Islam. They deny the severity or the actual event of the holocaust.  These people do not understand secular or biblical history and invent conspiracy theories that have no foundation in the facts.  In order to understand just what did happen, the truth of things, a person must have a very strong foundation in both biblical and historical knowledge. For me to go into these things would require me to write volumes of articles covering various aspects of the truth of these things.  I do have some articles on this blog that touch on certain topics but I will not attempt to write an all inclusive book about all of them.  

The best advice I can give to anyone who is antisemitic is to do much study and research from many sources before you form an opinion.  People that are antisemitic have the ideas of only one side forming their belief but a wise person has honestly examined many before forming their belief.
