Truth: “the true or actual state of a matter; conformity with fact or reality, verity; a verified or indisputable fact, proposition, principle or the like; a state or character of being true; actuality or actual existence; an obvious or accepted fact; agreement with a standard or original; accuracy, as of position or adjustment; honesty; sincerity; truthfulness”. (Source) Jesus Christ is the truth!
The enemy of God in Christ and all humanity is Satan and his legions of fallen angels and evil spirits. Satan is especially the enemy of true Christians because Christ offers eternal life to all who are born again by true faith in Jesus Christ. But Satan, the enemy of God and people “does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy” (John 10:10a). But Jesus said “I have come that they [people created in the image of God] may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10b). That’s the spiritual warfare and conflict of the last two millennia.
Now, remembering that God in Christ is the truth, it was Jesus who said of unbelieving Jews in Israel “I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2:9). In the next chapter Jesus reminds the reader again, “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). In those two verses Jesus reflects directly on the truth that there are those who say they are Jews from Jewish genealogy and though they know who Christ is, they still vehemently reject Him as the Messiah. And in their state of unbelief, to God they are not Jews, because true Jews believe Jesus Christ.
God spoke that truth. “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). And sealing that truth, the Holy Spirit said of true believers that “in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation. And as many as walk according to this rule, [of true new birth faith in Christ] peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God” (Gal. 6:15–16). [My emphasis] The true Israel of God are those of true new birth faith in Christ, not unbelieving Jews of Israel. So, why do so many Christians find unity with and stand in solidarity with an unbelieving people Jesus called “a synagogue of Satan”? There’s only one reason: the one and a half century-old deception of Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensationalism!
Therein, Satan, the enemy of God has deceptively perverted the truth of who the true Jews are. And under the many deceits of Dispensationalism, the enemy, Satan, has convinced the church that unbelieving Jews of Israel are still God’s chosen people which is a deceitful lie, specifically designed to deceive those claiming faith in Jesus Christ. And the result? Most church pastors and Bible teachers believe Satan’s lie and stand against God’s word and unite with unbelieving Israel and still declare unbelieving Jews of Israel to be God’s chosen people! Dispensationalism dug its own grave of unbelief, because the Holy Spirit said of believers in Christ, “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). So, in humility, I ask you in the love of Christ, with whom do you find unity, the unbelieving Jews of Israel whom God divorced, or the teachings and truths of Christ?
If you stand with unbelieving Jews of Israel you are definitely in the majority of mainstream Christianity. But I want to remind everyone that biblically the majority were those who suffered God’s judgment at the edge of Canaan because the large majority of Jews disbelieved God when they saw the giants. Satan put that fear and rebellion in the hearts of Israel’s Jews and as a result all those aged twenty years old and older were destroyed in the wilderness over a period of forty years. That event in a way is about to repeat itself now at the end of this age as the large majority of Christians have rebelled against God because they have believed Dispensationalism instead of God’s word. The majority chose to honor unbelieving Jews God called “a synagogue of Satan”. I don’t say that to judge because I’m not the Judge, but I do know what God’s word says, and I’m trying to open eyes and hearts of many who have been blinded by unbelief as is Israel to this day.
Our examples come not only from the OT, but also from Christ who compared the many who disbelieve and go to their destruction vs the few who believe and are saved. Jesus said “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matt. 7:13–14). Few take the narrow gate and difficult road leading to life, while the majority take the broad easier road leading to destruction. Those aren’t my words, but God’s word in Christ. It’s stunning the number of people who profess to be Christians, but in rebellion believe that God’s chosen people are still unbelieving Jews of Israel! Again, understand that Dispensationalism has created the Zionist movement wherein Christians find solidarity with unbelieving Jews, the very people whom God divorced and Jesus called “a synagogue of Satan”! True believers find unity and solidarity in Christ and His truths, not with unbelief and rebellion!
Mainstream Christians are led by pastors to believe that the Dispensational majority and popular opinion of unity with unbelieving Jews is good as the unbelieving world watches. What an awful witness! I pray you stand in solidarity with Jesus Christ because He said “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). Understand that Satan is pleased when believers find solidarity and unity with unbelieving Jews of Israel. But don’t you be part of that crowd. Have integrity of true faith in Christ. Don’t unite with rebellion as did the majority of ancient Israel against God’s word at Canaan. Don’t fear the Dispensational majority. Have spiritual integrity to stand against the majority as did Moses, Aaron, Joshua and Caleb in ancient Israel. Don’t join with the majority who fear seeing Antichrist and rebelled against the testimony of Jesus Christ. Find your firm spiritual footing in the testimony of Christ’s truths.
Unbelief: “the state or quality of not believing; incredulity or skepticism, especially in matters of doctrine or religious faith.” (Source) Dear readers, Satan, the enemy of God’s truths in Jesus, has been plotting this rebellious unbelief since the late-19th Century when he found men like Darby and Scofield who were willing to poison the truth with Dispensationalism and pre-trib rapture. I cannot adequately tell you how damaging the testimonies of those two men have been to God’s word and to the body of Christ. Read of ancient Israel’s unbelief at Canaan at Num. 13 and 14.
In true faith we believers are supposed to pray for unbelieving Jews and every other unbelieving people, to be born again by true faith in Jesus Christ. But we are not permitted to show partiality or favoritism to any people. “Then Peter opened his mouth and said: ‘In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality’” (Acts 10:34), “For there is no partiality with God” (Rom. 2:11), and “if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors” (James 2:9). But Dispensational theology in grave error demands that Christians be partial to unbelieving Jews of Israel. And the unbelieving world sees this partiality played out in Christian churches while its leaders, pastors and Bible teachers also lead our U.S. government officials to believe the lie that we must show partiality to unbelieving Israel and support whatever Israel does; even support for Israel’s ungodly genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza! See its destructions here and here.
A significant factor in the current U.S. government’s overt and obvious Israel-first policy is that President Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, married to President Trump’s daughter Ivanka, is an Orthodox Jew. That close tie between alleged Christian President Trump and Orthodox Jews is fuel for the fire of sinful Christian partiality being shown toward unbelieving Jews in Israel. I hope every reader understands that because millions of Christians find solidarity and unity with unbelieving Israel they are co-sponsors of Israel’s ungodly genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. It’s unconscionable that believers of the glorious gospel of Christ allow themselves to be so deceived as to turn a blind eye to the Gaza genocide by the IDF. And God’s warning should resonate with every true believer: “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap” (Gal. 6:7). Reaping what one sows applies to the U.S. which has turned a blind eye to the genocide in Gaza. Biblical history reveals that God knows how to bring judgments upon a people and nations who reject His word and murder the innocent. Judgment is coming!
For now, Israel enjoys the fawning favor of most American churches and their millions of tithe dollars, together with the U.S. government and billions of tax-payer dollars, and all its powerful military apparatus. But the time is coming when the world will see modern-day Israel for what it really is, and will turn against Israel in great wrath. For God said “Behold, the day of the Lord is coming, And your spoil will be divided in your midst. For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city” (Zech. 14:2). [My emphasis] That city destroying event will occur at the resurrection rapture. Don’t be taken captive by the traditions of men that make God’s word of no effect, Mark 7:13.
Don’t forget that because of Israel’s unbelief and rebellion, which, as a nation continues today, God said “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). And God never remarried her. And reflecting on that divorce God warns post-Calvary believers, “Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off” (Rom. 11:22). [My emphasis] J.N. Darby and C.I. Scofield created a great end-time rebellion by Dispensationalism against God in Christ. You won’t hear that in any mainline evangelical church because its own leaders have been taken captive by the deception and rebellion of those two men, and the majority follow what sounds best. However, “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death” (Prov. 14:12, 16:25).
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.
