Antisemitism in South Africa

Desmond Tutu_ANTISEMITISM - South Africa

Antisemitism in South Africa – Desmond Tutu from South Africa wrote in the foreword to the book “Speaking The Truth: Zionism, Israel and Occupation,” edited by the Roman Catholic scholar, Michael Prior” the following dishonouring words:

“Now, alas, we see apartheid in Israel . . . The apartheid government [in South Africa] was very powerful, but today it no longer exists. Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Pinochet, Milosovic and Idi Amin were all powerful, but, in the end, they bit the dust.”

Nazi boycotts against Jews_thumb

Germans, defend yourselves, do not buy from Jews’ sign posted in Germany, 1 Apr 1933

The sick irony of it all is that while Tutu compares Israel to the atrocities of Hitler and his cohorts he, who is Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and his cronies are calling for extreme boycotts against Israel, in much the same way the Nazis called for boycotts in 1933. “Juden Raus” was their  rallying cry which eventually led to the holocaust.

The dishonouring and ill-treatment of the Jews is tantamount to the dishonouring of the blessing God promised through Abraham which is “salvation is from the Jews.” To reject the Jews is to reject the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Jesus Christ who himself was a Jew. Sadly antisemitism is the fastest growing evils of our world today and it is even more heart-breaking to see how many gentile Christians believe the lie that God has taken away the Kingdom from them and given it to the church.

Replacement Theology, the new “Christian” antisemitism

Replacement theology, one of the more subtle forms of antisemitism and the notion that the church has replaced Israel and that all her spiritual gifts, benefits and privileges have been transferred to the New Israel (the church/the elect) because the nation of Israel has irrevocably lost all her blessings by virtue of her rebellion and rejection of Christ has been going around for many centuries.

The most common view amongst Catholics and the majority of Protestants is that God has completely rescinded His covenants with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, relating specifically to the nation of Israel and has taken His promised Kingdom away from her to give it to the church. St. Augustine’s book, “The City of God,” promoting the lie that the Millennium Kingdom was inaugurated on earth when the church was instituted in the New Testament after the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ and the subsequent outpouring of His Holy Spirit, contributed a great deal to instil Replacement Theology in the minds of gentile Christians to this very day.

St. Paul’s epistle to the Romans, the longest he wrote, is a monumental and very compassionate critique on the gentile Christians’ increasing animosity toward the Jewish Christians in Rome. Antisemitism and Replacement Theology began to rear its ugly head when the Emperor Claudius decreed that all the Jews be banished from Rome (Acts 18: 2). This atrocious step prompted the Gentile Christians to reach the conclusion that God had turned His back on Israel never to restore them as a nation and to their original relationship with Him as He had done so many times in the past.

When Emperor Nero overturned Claudius’ decree and invited the Jews back to Rome because of the benefits the city could reap from their brilliant economic expertise, the Gentile Christians refused to allow them back in their fellowship. Sadly, even to this day Jewish Christians stand aloof of Gentile Christians because of their erroneous interpretation of God’s promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Paul’s main purpose was to nip the boastful and inordinate pride of the Gentile Christians in the bud and to vindicate God’s eternal promises to His peculiar people with regards to the remnant’s inheritance of His Millennial Kingdom on earth.

The allegorical or spiritualized method of the a-millennial interpretation of the 1000 years of peace on earth was the natural outflow of replacement theology because it was the only way to incorporate a 1000 years into a much longer period (more than 2000 years) since the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ. We must always bear in mind that a promise of God is a prophecy fulfilled the moment it is given even though it may take thousands of years before it is actually fulfilled. Had this not been true Almighty God would have been guilty of His own indictment of false prophets in Deuteronomy 18: 22, “When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.” Numbers 23 : 19 teaches very clearly that God is not a man that He should lie and He always brings to fruition His promises.

Therefore, we can be sure that God will fulfil all His promises in regards to His people. How is he going to do it? Although it is not and never will be God’s will that the Gentile nations hate and treat the Jews with contempt, (believe it or not, some Gentile Christians believe the very opposite), He is going to use the world-wide antisemitism and hatred of the Jews to draw the nations to the valley of Jehoshaphat where He is going to judge them with His sword of righteousness. Listen to what he says in Isaiah 45:

“For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; I, Who say to you, Fear not, I will help you! Fear not, you worm of Jacob, you men of Israel! I will help you, says the Lord; your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. Behold, I will make you to be a new, sharp, threshing instrument having teeth; you shall thresh the mountains and beat them small, and shall make the hills as chaff. You shall winnow them and the wind shall carry them away, and the tempest or whirlwind shall scatter them. And you shall rejoice in the Lord, you shall glory in the Holy One of Israel.”

God commands us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122: 6) So let’s do it with compassion and great passion. Jesus wept over Jerusalem. What do we do?

The Bible makes it very clear what God will do to nations who treat his people, the Jews, with contempt.

“Son of man, because Tyre said concerning Jerusalem, ‘Aha, the gate of the peoples is broken; it has swung open to me. I shall be replenished, now that she is laid waste,

Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and will bring up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves. They shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers, and I will scrape her soil from her and make her a bare rock. She shall be in the midst of the sea a place for the spreading of nets, for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel 26:2-21
(2) Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:

(3) Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up.

(4) And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.

(5) It shall be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD: and it shall become a spoil to the nations.

(6) And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

(7) For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.

(8) He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the field: and he shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee, and lift up the buckler against thee.

(9) And he shall set engines of war against thy walls, and with his axes he shall break down thy towers.

(10) By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots, when he shall enter into thy gates, as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach.

(11) With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: he shall slay thy people by the sword, and thy strong garrisons shall go down to the ground.

(12) And they shall make a spoil of thy riches, and make a prey of thy merchandise: and they shall break down thy walls, and destroy thy pleasant houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber and thy dust in the midst of the water.

(13) And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard.

(14) And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou shalt be a place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I the LORD have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

(15) Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee?

(16) Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and lay away their robes, and put off their broidered garments: they shall clothe themselves with trembling; they shall sit upon the ground, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished at thee.

(17) And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it!

(18) Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.

(19) For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee;

(20) When I shall bring thee down with them that descend into the pit, with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;

(21) I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith the Lord GOD.

    Romans 11 talks about Israelites not necessarily Jews, there is a difference you know!

    Stalin was a Jew: http://www.jewwatch.com/jew-leaders-stalin-3%20Jewish%20Wives%20of%20Joseph%20Stalin.html

    So what about the Protocols of the Learned Elders, the Talmud etc.

    Go read your Bible and see that all descendants of Jacob are Israelites, but not all descendants of Abraham are Israelites.

    Esau’s descendants are Edomites and they are Jews and this what God says about them : As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated : Romans 9:13

    If you read in Ezekiel 37:12-14 & 23 the Jews are not in the land of Israel today, they will not being regathered into the land, and will not be until the Lord returns. So the whole façade of Israel returning to their land in the last days is not true. When the Lord returns He will regather His people from the ends of the earth to the land of Israel and not until then. So who are the ones there now? The imposters.

    It is a cheap trick to make it seem as if “the Jews of the world” started the “war” against Germany, instead of the other way around. The word “war” means many things. In this case it meant planning to apply economic pressure.

    But the IHR and Zündel want you to think it was a real declaration of war. How many divisions of troops did “Judea” have? How many tanks? How many planes? How many artillery shells?

    The fact is that Germany started the real war, World War II, and started it by overrunning Poland with planes, bombs, tanks, and millions of infantrymen. To compare this to a planned economic boycott is ludicrous, but typical of “revisionist” trickery.

    Besides, this is an internal contradiction. Their answer to question 54 states that “the Germans maintained cordial relations with the Zionist leadership.” War is not a cordial relation. They should get their story straight.

    (really I believe that Satan has blinded your eyes…Satan hates the Jews).

  19. blank Corne says:

    Please allow me to make the following points:

    1) The Jews declared war before the Germans boycotted their shops. Indeed it wasn’t a physical war(arms) but it accounts for the reason the Germans boycotted their shops. The author maybe didn’t know this or left this out on purpose, but still it makes the article invalid on that point alone.

    2) All descendants of Abraham are Jews. Please explain Ishmael who is the father of the Muslims.

    3) Revelations 2:9 & 3:9. Thomas you avoid these scriptures like the plague, and you answer about the Gentiles doesn’t suffice. Please explain who you think are these Jews that are not Jews.

    4) Thomas you are misleading people by putting an extra spin on the salvation on the cross by Jesus Christ, by claiming people are cursed and not save if they (hate) the Jews.

    5) Thomas I think you should try blogging about the weather or maybe gardening instead.

  20. Corne,

    1) The reason why Hitler murdered 6 000 000 Jews was not because the Jews first boycotted Germany. He murdered them because he was a Roman Catholic to his death. The Roman Catholic popes were the first to develop anti-Semitism to a science. Hitler, who remained a Catholic to the end, would claim that he was only following the example of both Catholics and Lutherans in finishing what the Church had begun. Anti-Semitism was a part of his Catholicism from which Martin Luther was never freed. He advocated burning down Jews’ homes and giving them the choice between conversion and having their tongues torn out. When Rome’s Jews were released from their ghetto by the Italian army in 1870, their freedom at last ended about 1500 years of unimaginable humiliation and degradation at the hands of those who claimed to be the vicars of Christ. As I said earlier, Hitler is in hell and if you do not repent of your evil you WILL spend in hell with Hitler for an eternity.

    2) You know as well as I that I was referring to Abraham and his wife Sarah’s offspring and not the offspring of Hagar. By the way, you have something in common with the Muslims because they hate the Jews as much as you do.

    3) Romans 11:28 clearly states that the entire Jewish nation is God’s chosen people for the sake of the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That does not mean that every single Jew will be saved. In fact, the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (Matthew 8:12). Does that give you the right to hate them? True Christians are commanded to make them envious so that they too may be saved (even those who are of the synagogue of Satan). And by the way, Hitler’s occult dabbling is far more a synagogue of Satan than that of the Jews. As I said earlier, you are on the wrong side of the fence.

    4) Do you ever read your Bible? “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” (Genesis 12:3). YOu are cursing the nation from which Jesus Himself said salvation shall come.

  21. blank Jude says:

    Martin Horan, are you ignorant or in denial of the parts in the Bible that clearly blame the Jews for the death of Jesus, calls them “liars” and “killers of prophets”?

    http://robertnielsen21.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/terrible-parts-of-the-bible-part-6-anti-semitism/

  22. Jude,

    Are you denying what Jesus said?

    Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. (Joh 10:17-18)

    You say the Jews killed Jesus? Really???

    Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. (Isa 53:10)

    If you believe the Jews killed Jesus then you don’t know the Gospel.

    Read here.

  23. blank Jude says:

    I’m Jewish and frankly I couldn’t care less what Jesus said (if he existed). But, it is undeniable that many of his followers and the writers of the NT were antisemitic and blamed the Jews for the death of their man-god Jesus.

    You can deny it all you want, but Jews know exactly what Christians said and did centuries ago. Fundies like you only pretend to support the Jews and Israel because you believe we’re the key to the second coming/rapture or some nonsense, and that we will convert to Xtianity when that happens. You do not understand or care for our religion or why Jesus could not have been the messiah.

    Read this:

    http://www.aish.com/jw/s/48892792.html

  24. Jude,

    You seem to know a lot more about me than I do myself. My friend, I do not pretend to support the Jews. I love them because Jesus, your and my Messiah, was a Jew and because He said, “Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. (Joh 4:22). Any Christian who is antisemitic is NOT a Christian, including the Roman Catholic Church. “Christians” who are antisemitic are anti God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob – period.

  25. blank Jude says:

    I don’t care if Jesus was a Jew, he was a heretic and a fake, and died because of it. At least the Catholic Church has apologized for its treatment of Jews, and is not actively trying to convert us or using us as pawns for the apocalypse, unlike evangelical xtians.

  26. Jude,

    Your worst enemy is your own unbelief and with that I close my case.

  27. HI Jude.
    I was a educated as a Catholic. The Catholics never apologized for its treatment of Jews, which it murdered in the in the Crusades as it did Bible believing Christians and Moslems. It also murdered Jews and true Christians, in untold millions, in the Inquisition. Adolf Hitler, like Mussolini and Franco and the leaders of all the Facsist, anti-Semitic South American countries were practising Catholic–till the days one each died. Hitler, who built his Gestapo on the Jesuits, called Goebels his Ignatius Loyola! And Franco publicly called stated, on the death of Hitler, the the Catholic Church had lost a great son in the Fuhrer! These are facts.
    How do you think so many Nazis escaped to South America? They did so, as Dave Hunt and other Christian writers showed, on Vatican passports, under Pope Pius XII. Read Catholic historian John Cornwell’s book, on Pius XII, called “Hitler’s Pope”. Read the books of former Catholic David Yallop and of former Jesuit priest Diego Riviera and Father Charles Chiquy and their views regarding the Vatican not being anti-Semitic. It would perhaps change your views, as they say the opposite.
    In very recent history Pope John Paul II, a friend of Arafat, said nothing when Arafat publicly claimed that Jesus was the first Palestinian to carry a sword. Dave Hunt asked why the pope didn’t rebuke Arafat publicly as the latter made his outrageous claim publicly.
    The Pope couldn’t; and you’d know why if you actually knew the history of the Roman Catholic church which to this day accuses the Jews of crucifying Christ and denies their right to have Israel. This is why they support a divided Jerusalem and Bible-believing Christians so not. Catholic theology claims the Papacy to have replaced the Jews as God’s people. Check what Unam Santam means.
    Any Christian who, as you say, uses Jews as pawns for the apocalypse would not–could not–be a real Christian.
    There are many Messianic Jews who back us Christians and know what the Catholic Church is, not only those of us who were once a part of it. I suggest you google Alan Lamont and find what the Jesuits are all about.
    By the bye the Catholic Church could not apologize for what they did to the Jews, because they would have to contradict Semper Eadem if they did; and no pope would ever do that. The Catholic Christ is the fake Christ and the first Reformers believed that. Anti-semites like Luther and Calvin, never fully rejected their Catholicism. If you read their writings you will see that for yourself.

  29. blank Edmund says:

    Hello Martin Horan.
    Saint Ignatius Loyola was a jew.

  30. blank Martin Horan says:

    Hello, Edmund. Ignatius Loyola was not a Jew. He came from an old Basque Noble family who were Catholics. Go and read any history of his life and you’ll see that for yourself. He was baptised with the name Inigo and later changed it to Ignatius. To the Catholics, Loyola is a saint–which you become after you are dead and nominated to be one. He certainly is not a saint in the biblical sense which is a term applied to any living Christian. Perhaps you are mixing him up with Torquemada–who though not a Jew either, is reckoned to have Jewish blood on one side. If so, what would that prove anyway?

    Corne, the Bible makes clear who the (Arab, not all) Moslems are.

    The New Testament says not all ISRAEL are Israel [Romans 9:6] and Paul explains what he means by Israel–descendants of Abraham, explaining that the Arabs through Esau are not bona fide descendants–as you will see if you read down to verse 13. It is abundantly clear then that Arabs are not part of that calling as Israel are.

    Jude, you are in a scary postion if you are blaming the Jews for the Crucifixion of Christ. Acts 4:27 makes it clear who was to blame. (Besides Jesus was arrested in a secluded place for fear of the people causing a tumult: They had been waving palm leaves and hailing Him as the Messiah earlier.) If people even try to blame all those mentioned in Acts 4:27 then it seems that they are not taking your part of the blame for crucifying the Lord. We are ALL to blame. To blame Jews or anyone else surely is refusing to accept that Jesus then died for your sins. ALL of the first Christians and ALL of the disciple were Jews. NO exceptions!

    Those who take Revelation (written by John, a Jew) 2:9 and 3:9 where he says, “Those who SAY they are Jews but are NOT but are a synagogue of Satan” (synagogue is a Greek word, not Hebrew, and is used in the sense of a building where Christians go) to mean that these are Jews (in other words saying they are God’s chosen people). They are judging the Jews by a different standard from the ones where he has said (in 2:2) “those who SAY they are apostles but are NOT” therefore are at best being illogical and at worst are being hypocritical. If they are not apostles as he is evidently saying, then those who say they are not Jews (God’s chosen people) are not Jews either.

    For those who think they are Christians and make anti-Semitic remarks, they are on thin ice. (Genesis 12:2-3; 27:29; Jeremiah 30:11; Zechariah 12:1-9; John 4:22 and Romans 11.
