Pretexts for the hatred of the Jews…contd.

      The victimisation of Jewish minorities which was suffered in Occupied Europe during world war 11 has since then undergone a metamorphosis and has become a mindless hatred of “absentee Jews”,- Jews who have migrated from their old host countries to settle in their homeland, while a hatred lingers in the lands they have left. The relics of this age-old hatred are known as “ anti-Zionism”. This form of hatred is now rampant in most Muslim cultures, and has become more evident in the pan-African organisations, and within the great international organisations,  such as the U.N.O. and the E.U.

    It was this insane hatred of the Jews which impelled the Nazi regime towards genocide, and, of course, caused the self-destruction of that regime by its diversion of resources towards mass murder. The same hatred prompted the genocides attempted by Pharaoh, Haman, Nebuchadnezzar and Titus. This hatred was defined by Elie Wiesel in March, 2005 :- “ It was man’s inhumanity to man -  NO  !  It was man’s inhumanity to Jews. Jews were not killed because they were human beings. In the eyes of the killers, they were not human beings. They were Jews.”

       Beneath this hatred and mindless fear of the Jews is an unconscious spiritual carcinoma. Among the complex forces which generate this hatred of the Jews or anti-Zionism is a spiritual issue. Its origin does not lie in politics,economics,financial acumen of the Jews, the occupation of land, religious practices,race, or history.  It is to do with the sovereign purposes of God in His choice of Israel, and His identity as the Judaeo-Christian God and His Messiah, Jesus Christ. If  this issue is re-phrased, then this hostility is generated by the negative spirit which rejects the salvation which is from the Jews in the Person of the Messiah Jesus, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the King of the Jews.

    Therefore it could be stated that beneath all the pretexts and excuses for the hatred of the Jews is an age-old, futile opposition to God and His Messiah, and the human attempts to ignore, disrupt or circumvent His sovereign purpose to offer the only salvation which is acceptable to Him, which is, salvation by grace through faith and simple trust in His Son, Jesus Christ.

      Jesus said ,”   He who hates Me hates My Father also,”  and “They hated Me without a cause.” John’s gospel,ch.15,v23, v25.

 

                    qui  s’excuse, s’ accuse.

     ( If expanded, I think that this means :” The one who makes excuses for himself, in effect, accuses himself.)

    THE  END  OF PRETEXTS FOR HATRED  OF THE  JEWS.
