In these increasingly deceptive and wicked end-times the light of truth shines bright for those who discern it. Everyone is familiar with the term “Judeo-Christian”, a term created to combine Judaism and Christianity as if the two religions had much in common. By design that deception took root and has infected many for decades. It’s that wicked term that’s motivating millions of professing Christians to support and fund whatever unbelieving Israel’s leadership wants done.
“Judeo-Christian – of or relating to the religious writings, beliefs, values, or traditions held in common by Judaism and Christianity. First recorded in 1895–1900.” (Source) Here’s the main point: the term Judeo-Christian became popular at the rise of Dispensational Theology authored by John Nelson Darby (1800–1882), and has become so prolific in Christian circles of theology and teaching that, in mental and spiritual terms, Judaism and Christianity are generally viewed by the masses of both believers and unbelievers to be one and the same. It’s an evil deception. Yet, because Dispensational Theology mandates Judeo-Christian solidarity evangelical leaders and followers blindly support unbelieving Jews of Israel regardless of their rejection of Christ.
Christ warned “Take heed that no one deceives you” (Matt. 24:4). And the Holy Spirit warned repeatedly “Let no one deceive you” (Eph. 5:6; 2 Thess. 2:3; 1 John 3:7). Yet, tens of millions of believers are literally deceived because they believe in the Judeo-Christian term that’s become all too commonplace in Christian teaching. Spiritually, Christians have nothing in common with unbelieving Christ-denying Israel, because Christianity begins with Jesus Christ, but at that very foundation unbelieving Jews of Israel reject the truth with hostility. This is how Zionism gained its ungodly traction in Christianity. But the challenge is to believe God or false prophets.
I will detail why Judeo-Christian is a deceptive and even anti-Christ term from Scripture. As we go through this think in terms of a marriage between one man and one woman, but at some point one spouse proves unfaithful, breaking the marriage covenant and a certificate of divorce ensues. “Divorce – 1. the act of legally ending a marriage. 2. any formal separation of spouses according to established custom.” (Source) And infidelity is the only basis allowing for marital divorce by Christ who said “whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery” (Matt. 5:32). [My emphasis] A legal certificate of divorce then, brings total separation between the man and woman who once entered the holy covenant of marriage.
God created ancient Israel to be His chosen people, declaring “if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Exo. 19:5–6). In other words, ancient Israel was indeed at one time God’s special chosen people. But if you know God’s word, you know that Israel repeatedly, deliberately and unfaithfully prostituted herself in rebellion to serve false gods of pagan nations. Finally, as would any husband, God had enough, saying, “Then I saw that for all the causes for which backsliding Israel had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a certificate of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear, but went and played the harlot also” (Jer. 3:8). God divorced ancient Israel and never took her back, even to this day. But God’s true “Israel” is reserved for the faithful. I’ll explain.
So final was God’s divorce of Israel that, a short time later He told His prophet “Therefore do not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them, nor make intercession to Me; for I will not hear you” (Jer. 7:16). And again “So do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry out to Me because of their trouble” (Jer. 11:14). And yet again, “Then the LORD said to me, “Do not pray for this people, for their good. When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and grain offering, I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence” (Jer. 14:11–12). [My emphasis] God was truly serious.
But evangelical Dispensational churches won’t teach you that as it would destroy their Judeo-Christian collaborative agenda. Though the Israel land covenant remains, Gen. 17:8 and 48:4, post-Calvary unbelieving Jews of Israel are not God’s chosen people, because “as many as walk according to this rule, [new birth faith in Jesus Christ] peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God” (Gal. 6:16). True Christians are “the Israel of God”. In this regard God said “they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, ‘In Isaac [son of the freewoman] your seed shall be called’” (Rom. 9:6); and, “if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Gal. 3:29). Therefore, post-Calvary believers are “the Israel of God” and are His chosen people. “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy” (1 Peter 2:9–10). We’re to make disciples for Christ, not praise unbelievers.
Remember, post-Calvary, God defines the true Jew. “For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God” (Rom. 2:28–29). Therefore Jesus said to the persecuted church: “I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are rich); and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2:9). And to the faithful church: “Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you” (Rev. 3:9). [My emphasis] God strongly accuses post-Calvary unbelieving Jews of “blasphemy” and that they are “of the synagogue of Satan”. Yet, today, should any minister oppose the Dispensational Judeo-Christian term, he is lambasted by most theologians, pastors and Bible teachers as stupid, unlearned and unfit for Christian ministry. It’s like that because their deceit is exposed as a lie, and they’ll do anything to discredit the threat that exposes it.
Maybe you don’t know of the hatred unbelieving Jews in Israel have for Christ, the Cornerstone of Christianity. And they know exactly who He was and that Jesus said He was God’s Son. They say they live by the Old Testament Law, but that’s a lie because no man could perform the Law except Jesus Christ. That truth infuriates them. They disdain Christ, and that’s putting it mildly. They believe their Talmud, oral traditions handed down for generations, as their guide for life and faith. Here’s a link to help you understand unbelieving Jews of Judaism. It’s just shocking that millions of evangelicals are so spiritually blind as to support anti-Christ Jews of Judaism!
Evangelical pastors and Bible teachers in Dispensational churches know all this, or they should, but won’t reveal these deceits to you as it would produce widespread backlash which they can’t have. They need their congregational sheep to conform to the narrative they were told to believe, independent of free thought and reason in their academic pursuits of ministry credentials. Their forerunners, dating back to 1900, coined the Judeo-Christian term, to create the deception that unbelieving Jews of Israel and Christians are virtually the same, and they have been using that influence over our government leaders ever since! Today, it’s performed in the so-called White House faith office as President Trump is surrounded by Dispensational preachers and leaders guiding his spiritually blind allegiance and praise for Israel, the worst being Paula White.
Zionist evangelical Christians are in lockstep with Israel for the evil destruction of Palestinians’ homes, schools and businesses. Israel does not carry out precision bombings of the enemy, but indiscriminate genocide of innocent Palestinians. See these videos here and here of the horrible destruction at the hands of Israel’s IDF. Israel’s leadership hates the Palestinians while millions of Christian Zionists applaud Israel in its genocide causing vast humanitarian disasters. But true Christians cannot and will not participate or condone such bloodshed of the innocent. Take note of those who profess to be Christians but find the capacity to align with Israel’s murders. They, in word and deed, trample the word of God in Christ to love their neighbor as themselves.
Zionist Christians hinge their false agenda on the misinterpretation of one verse when God said to Abram: “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (Gen. 12:3). The first portion saying “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you” was a single promise to Abram for his time living on earth. Then the semicolon breaks the former from the latter “and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed”. Note the far future focused reality that “in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Not some, not a few, but “all the families of the earth” which is for everyone who’ll believe regardless of nationality or ethnicity. Therefore God said “if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Gal. 3:29). Amen.
The Judeo-Christian deception ranks so high that it’s just as Christ said, that “false prophets will arise … to deceive. If possible, even the elect” (Matt. 24:24). And that’s exactly what Zionism is responsible for, false prophets who deceive! Hatred for any people is wholly anti-Christ and any Zionist who thinks otherwise is deceived. The spiritual infection of the Zionist Judeo-Christian agenda will soon devastate the Church. Read also this article and this article. I love all people and pray that all come to new birth faith in Jesus. But the evil Zionist notion that Palestinians must be destroyed to allow Jews to return to Israel is of the Devil. Yet that’s the popular and hateful agenda that birthed the deceitful Judeo-Christian term. Come out from among them!
My second book “ON EAGLES’ WINGS” explains in detail how to know Christ and find God’s Bozrah sheepfold of safety and place of provision for the last 1,260 days of the great tribulation.
