Antisemitism, its Root Cause and its Remedy

by Gavin Finley MD

The Historical and Ecclesiastical Background

Antisemitism is a mysterious phenomenon. In past years we were led to view it as a European social malady, related to the fascist regimes. We have been made aware of the persecutions against Jewish villages in the Pogroms of Eastern Europe and the Holocaust of World War II. In earlier times there were the Crusades and also the Inquisitions. These were grievous histories, terrible beyond all telling.

During these past 80 years of the Pax Americana, we have not seen antisemitism rise up to any significant degree — Until now! In fact, it is making an appearance in America, of all places!

So, what is happening here? The winds of change are blowing. Things feel unsettled. After 1700 years the post-Nicene Constantinian Accord of “God and king” or “God and Western rulers” is beginning to get shaky. America now seems to be approaching its own special crossroad in world history. There is talk of a “Great Reset”, into a new era of global unity. We hear mumblings of something called “global governance”. And now, with nationalistic reactionary voices being raised, conservative commentators are beginning to pivot from confronting their usual left wing political opponents to castigate our Jewish friends. They are also denying national Israel’s right to exist.

But that is not the sum of it. These right wing pundits are joined by an oligarchy of global economic planners on the left, men and women who perceive Israel to be little more than a racial, even a racist company, not deserving to be a true nation. Merely for defending itself Israel is roundly judged as the aggressor, and not worthy of belonging  to the UN “club”. For many people of faith the idea of a future world ruled over by globalist elites such as we see on the World Economic Forum is less than inspiring. The worldly secular accountants, financiers, technocrats, and politico-economic planning committees look to many observers to be rather cold politburo types and spiritually empty.

Christians imbued with Dominion Theology, and often devoted to their apostles and prophets, dream of something better. The cold WEF vision of the world, ruled over by some of these less than morally upright elites does not impress them. They take a more nuanced view of the new global order. They can see that it needs to be ruled over by men and women with a mission, people of some stated faith, and possessing some sort of charisma. They want rulers who look like they possess some sort of spiritual depth and the power to impress.

Dominionist Christians envision themselves as being the answer here. They can see themselves riding out in a global movement in the spirit and anointing they presently believe that they have, and what they believe the world needs.

Many ambitious Christians are already mission minded and they definitely want to go global. Their vision is in the pragmatic mode of evangelization rather than the evangelism that sees the indwelling Christ at work within to save and to deliver. So if they are offered the posting they will have no problem taking the money and the power and running with it. They will consider this collusion with powerful governmental connections as a welcome boost to their idea of global mission. And for a while that may be what will be seen in the outworking.

Wrapped up in Dominion Theology there is already the expectation of success in this present apostolic mode of operation. Many Christians across the board have given the nod to the idea of a "Kingdom Now". More recently a "New Apostolic Reformation" is making inroads into the non-denominational churches. Many of the religious hopefuls in this entourage envision a time when they will be given the power and the go-ahead to rule over certain assigned regions of the planet. They envision the day they will bring to completion their worldwide Christian dominion, and all before Messiah returns.

But the question remains, will this empowerment from less than holy sources carry with it an expectation of sharing rule with unholy co-rulers? Is it not already clear that multifaith religion, New Age religion, Christ Consciousness, Coexist, and other Unity religious amalgams will also come in looking for ecclesiastical power and privilege as well? Will the church be expected to form a coalition with these other politico-religious entities?

We can take a lesson from history here. Look at what happened back in 325 C.E. at the Council of Nicaea when we made the deal with the Byzantine Emperor Constantine. Did we not see this co-mingling of the holy and the profane? Did not the bishops of Christianity joined themselves with the priests of sun worship?

The call to a "Kingdom Now" in post-millennialism still seems to be holding sway. But the NAR, the New Apostolic Reformation, like the Reconstructionist Movement before it in the old-line denominations, seems to be taking some flak.

But the love of money is the root of all evil, and power corrupts. So, in our present state of moral decline fear will overcome faith in the hearts of many. We can expect that many will sign on to join this newly empowered established global "church". It may even turn out to be a rich and powerful colossus not unlike the church we saw in the medieval era.

Things could get a bit complex and interesting here. Because the way this world is going the Christian believers giving the nod to this invitation will inevitably be joined by a enthusiasts from New Age realms of universalist religion. There will almost certainly be a multifaith consortium including Unitarian and various "Coexist" movements like the “Church Universal and Triumphant”, Cosmic Consciousness, Wicca, and/or whatever. In fact, this is beginning to look like a post-modern revamped version of the Council of Nicaea. Is this in effect going to turn out to be Nicaea II?


Dispensationalist Christians being more biblically grounded take a more sage view of this. They are quite attentive to Bible prophecy. Thanks to evangelical Scotland Yard Inspector Sir Robert Anderson they have the Seventy Weeks Prophecy laid out very precisely. Biblical Christians can clearly see the future 70th Week floating out there in our future somewhere. They know it will be a time of trials.

The 19th Century saw biblically astute Christians looking at the future 70th Week and not liking what they saw. The prophetic scriptures pointed to a time of some very significant challenges. They link it to the coming time of “Jacob’s Trouble”.

So men like Nelson Darby and C.I. Scofield began erecting a deep

future 70th week to the Second Coming

theological partition between the Church and Israel. This allowed them to assign a separate destiny to the Jewish House for those final 7 years. This came to be known as the Dispensational Theology. It sold extremely well on the religious marketplace. The footnotes in the Scofield Reference Bible became the go-to source for for biblical commentary. Clarence Larkin wrote a book presenting his thesis of seven dispensational biblical time periods. When the TV Bible prophecy shows came on many Christians readily accepted this new popular interpretation of future events. This huge body of teaching materials, bolstered by the Left Behind books and movies has become a form of spiritual comfort food, and multi-billion dollar a year religi-business.

This idea of partitioning off the Jewish Israel from the Church was an expedient move for the American evangelical Church. It allowed them to assign that challenging future times to the largely yet to be saved Jewish house. They were then able to avoid having to take responsibility for the end-time trouble they clearly saw coming in Bible prophecy. So up came an eschatology allowing for a special early departure of the Church in a pre-tribulation Rapture. This allowed the time of “Jacob’s Trouble” in Jeremiah 30:7 to be considered as just “Jewish trouble”, and of no concern for the American Christian church. But there are problems with this interpretation. There is a strong correlation of “Jacob’s Trouble” with the prophecy of the “affliction of Joseph” in Amos 6:6. The house of Joseph is very definitely not the Jewish house.

Neither the Jewish Messianic house nor the Christian congregation seem to be inquiring into what redemptive purpose the Holy One of Israel might actually have in store for His covenant people during those final 7 years of this age. However, the Biblical narrative is stacked with very telling clues. Yes, as we see in Daniel 12 and Revelation 12, there will be a scattering and an exile. But apparently the true Latter Rain will fall in the double anointing we shall discuss later on in this article. The sower will overtake the reaper in a bumper global Harvest. That can’t be all bad as our dispensationalist friends affirm.

The late 19th Century saw aspirations arise of a secular political Jewish state in what had been the former land of Israel. After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E.. the Romans had renamed the land Palestine, after the Philistines. And so it is named today by worldly powers. Issues of ownership of the land rise up against the facts of history and facts on the ground.

As history rolled on into the late 19th Century antisemitism kept arising, seemingly as soon as the Jewish presence became prominent or in a time of political strain when Jewish voices appeared in any way to be anti-nationalist, anti-patriotic or anti-Christian.

The Dreyfus Affair and antisemitism in France.

prompts Theodore Herzl to wrrite “Der Judenstaat”

Theodor Herzl, an Austrian Jew, and the founder of modern political Zionism was well aware of this.. He was prompted to write the book "Der JudenStaat, "The Jewish State" as a result of the 'Dreyfus Affair". In that incident a Jewish army officer in the French Army was unjustly tried for treason. The Court hearings began in 1894 and went back and forth with the verdict for 12 years. Herzl came to believe that the only solution to anti-Semitism was the establishment of a Jewish state.

Herzl himself did not believe in God. Nor did he support Judaism or any religious faith. His focus was on creating a state to provide a refuge and security for Jews, rather than promoting a specific religious or cultural identity. He envisioned a secular, modern era nation-state in the ancient homeland of the Jewish people. After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E.

The Romans had called this land Palestine. At the time Herzl wrote his book it was in the hands of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Herzl's Zionism was primarily a political one. And as things turned out it was political and military events that opened the door for his dream to come to fruition.

The biblical awakenings in the 19th Century modern era give rise
to evangelical expectations of a Jewish return to the Holy Land,

The British evangelicals of the 19th Century cherished their biblically based expectation of a return of the Jewish House to the Land of Israel. This led on to prayers of intercession, mission support, and an ensuing political conversation hoping to see a Jewish home land and the holy places preserved. The biblical ferment became intense in the 19th Century, particularly in the English-speaking world. There was the emergence of various religious movements, the good and the bad, even some heretical cults. This is a matter of historical record.

So, a lot of biblical rediscoveries were being made with respect to the prophecies that spoke of a return to prominence of the Jewish house. One of some note was in Zechariah 12. There was also an increasing awareness that we were on a unification pathway approaching the climax of the age. As we described, there were the inevitable theological fumblings based upon political and marketing expedients. We saw some spurious doctrines created attempting to deal with Israel, the land, the city, and the people, all then part of an emerging existential reality.

Let us put those aside and focus on the British evangelicals. They had established humanitarian missions in Jerusalem to aid the returning Jews. This was a migration that would explode in the 20th Century, particularly after world War 2 and the holocaust.

It was in 1868 that General Gordon, in his diggings, discovered the Garden Tomb. (H was later to be killed in the famed Battle of Khartoum). This location was outside the city walls of Jerusalem This was an unfinished tomb and there was a well the nearby. The rock structure at the base of the mount fit the description of Golgotha, the "place of the skull", very well. This has been, and continues to be a truly peaceful garden of quiet reflection. It is visited by evangelicals from all over the world. To this day they still come to this beautiful place to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

World War 1 and the British Expeditionary Force push the Turks out
of the Levant, opening the door to the possibility of a Jewish homeland.

It was in 1917 in World War 1, a mere 21 years after Theodore Herzl published his book, that the Egyptian Expeditionary Force including the Desert Mounted Corps of General Allenby was in the Holy Land. History was witness to an extraordinary sequence of events.

Repeated attempts to take the Gaza ended in disaster. And yet General Allenby and his troops dismounted and walked into Jaffa Gate and into Jerusalem Jerusalem without firing a shot. Not wanting to shell the city Allenby had cabled the King asking for his advice. The king said, "Pray about it.

General Allenby then sent planes of the Royal Flying Corps over the city of Jerusalem dropping leaflets, warning the Turkish defenders that General Allenby was coming. The name in Arabic sounded so much like "son of Allah" that the Islamic Turks saw this as a bad omen. They fled the city. Later the British forces wrapped things up in the Middle East by taking Damascus.

It is worth noting too that in gallant style, against all odds, and even disregarding military good sense, the Australian Light Horse Brigade turned the tide. They charged the Turkish guns and trenches to take the wells at Beersheba. The date was October 31st, 1917. This allowed Allenby an open road skirting around Gaza and northwards to Jerusalem.

General Allenby enters Jerusalem on foot.

The Balfour Declaration

Scarcely had the cable reached London about the victory at Beersheba than Lord Balfour put pen to paper to advise Jewish interests that His Majesty's government viewed with favor the provision of a homeland, for the Jewish people. The Balfour Declaration was announced on November 2nd. This confirmed the early resolve of Great Britain to provide for the people of the Jewish Diaspora, and to give them a place they could finally and truly call home. This was an important matter. The Jews of the West had never been offered a "defender of the faith" as the Christian church was at the Council of Nicaea in 325 C.E.

As the decades passed this promise now seems to have been all but forgotten. Of course in this same World War 1 time window Lawrence of Arabia set in motion a "pro-Palestinian" movement among the Arab nations. This has proven to be quite opposed to that promise.

The Balfour Declaration

In 1936-1939 came the Arab Revolt, also known as the Great Palestinian Rebellion. This was a nationalist uprising in Palestine against the British Mandate and the increasing Jewish population. The British House of Commons, concerned about the Arab Revolt, and the burden of trying to keep the peace issued the “White Paper” refusing to allow more than just a limited number of Holocaust survivors to make Alijah to Israel.

At that time the Brits were fully aware of what was happening in Germany, It was also a matter of history that in 1938 oil was discovered in Saudi Arabia, and in huge quantities.

The S.S. Exodus incident in 1947 was sad. There were also interdictions of vessels at sea with Jewish refugees taken into custody. They were relocated to internment camps in Cyprus, far away from prying eyes. That caused an international outrage.

As we examine the situation in the Middle East it seems that whenever the Jewish House begins to return to their homeland there are Arab uprisings causing the superpower at the time all manner of problems trying to keep the peace.

Then too, the most hateful and violent, Palestinians, sometimes identified or compared with the Amalekites of biblical times, seem to want to come in close and encamp against the Jewish house. There in the Gaza they are being given boundless monetary incentives to be peaceful. And yet they continue to perpetrate all manner of heinous attacks upon Jewish settlers.

In the deep layers of antisemitism here must be a deep spiritually based hatred involved here, the likes of which we in the West are not capable of comprehending. Even the Jordanians and Egyptians refuse to take them in. Mrs. Gold Meir famously said, "There will be peace with these most virulent Palestinians when they come to love their children more than they hate us".

American antisemites are forever blaming Israel for defending itself, whilst ignoring the rabid hatred and violent acts going on in the Gaza with weapons supplied to them that are getting more and more swift, sophisticated, and destructive. The fact is, it is quite impossible for Americans to fathom the depth of hatred being perpetrated against Jewish Israel, a country that has never engaged in aggressive acts against its neighbors, takes good medical care of wounded terrorists, and remains the only democracy in the Middle East.

Jewish memories of the Crusades and their concerns about the sad recurrent history
of antisemitism rising up amidst radical political movements and populist uprisings.

Like many liberal churches, our Messianic Jewish friends do not put much emphasis on Bible prophecy. To their credit they do have a mind to keep the peace, focus on Torah Bible teachings, and avoid controversy. Their focus is on upholding tradition and maintaining the status quo.

However, it seems that the Jewish house remembers the Crusades very well. They are acutely aware of what happened back then. Pope Urban in the West got the message from the hard pressed remnant of the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium that they were under Islamic attack and in a critical state. Pope Urban preached the first Crusade in Clermont, France.

Crusaders conquer Jerusalem in 1099 C.E.
Crusaders conquer Jerusalem in 1099 C.E.

This was a popular campaign, and a massive undertaking for the time. All manner of men responded to the call. They mortgaged their lands to the Crusader's massive and trustworthy bank of the Knights Templar. They sold their possessions, and armed themselves to the teeth.

Then as they were about to leave they cast their eyes on the Jewish men not going out on the Crusade. They wondered who might be taking advantage of them in their two year absence, who might take their wives and their lands while they were gone. So they began their crusade by drawing their swords and killing certain Jews in their home town.

Travelling eastwards the Crusaders did attack the Jewish communities in the cities along the Rhine and elsewhere in France and the Holy Roman Empire. Medieval Europe was not very pleasant for Jews when crusaders were wandering through. Some crusaders reasoned that if they were going out on a Crusade to go attack enemies of Christianity in the east, why not attack enemies of Christianity closer to home? These were grievous histories in the memories of European Jews. They still persist to this day.

Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the rise of Western right-wing political movements is always a source of deep concern for Jewish minorities. Times of economic difficulty, war, or any time that sees reactionary patriotic movements, are deeply troubling for them.

So, here we are, with another bid for global dominion on the rise again. Once again, sadly, we are seeing the re-emergence of this sinister specter of antisemitism. Here it is, popping up again. But in Main Street America?

What is Antisemitism?

What then, is Antisemitism? The label “antisemitism” is quite inadequate to explain this phenomenon. The Semitic people extend well beyond the Jewish family of Judah. Antisemitism in the common parlance is clearly a racist hatred of Jews. Globalist spokespersons are also rising up to deny the right of Israel to exist as a nation.

These opinionated ones are spiritually blind, and bereft of understanding of holy things. They are lacking in an understanding of the Jewish house, its spiritual anointing, its character, its calling before God for righteous rule of law. They fail to see its purpose under God for a world peace that begins in human hearts. Then that peace proceeds on in the end-time drama to the ends of the earth, and to its appointed climax at the consummation of this age.

Why do the nations rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
The kings of the earth prepare for battle; the rulers plot together
against the LORD and against his anointed one. They say, “Let us
break their bonds in pieces, and cast away their constraints from us!”

For those with a biblical perspective we could cut to the chase rather quickly. King David, sovereign ruler of the House of Judah and over all Israel, wrote a song about this conspiracy 3,000 years ago. It is there in Psalm 2. And as the song goes, we are seeing nations rage as we approach the end of the age. But why?

As we see in the wording of the Psalm, the conspiracy at its core is a furious anger directed towards the coming Messiah, the returning King of kings. And why? The rebels make no bones about stating what upsets them. They say, “Let us break their bonds in pieces, and cast away their constraints from us!” Obviously they resent the moral constraints of God's righteous rule and law.

Why do the nations rage?
The nations are raging as King David prophesied in Psalm 2

So, why are we seeing a sudden increase in antisemitism popping up here in America? We can talk all day long about economic factors, international bankers and global economic policy. But the accusation by antisemites of a Jewish banking conspiracy is without foundation. The powers of Western Christendom are the ones who control the BIS. They  have dominated the flows of credit ever since the Crusades. Antisemitism is now sitting there on our doorstep.  But we still do not yet have a good handle on its root cause. No doubt it is a conspiracy. But by whom? And why?

That right there is our first big clue. We can link that to the rebellion we see in Romans chapter 1. There we see a pathway of depravity leads to a reprobate mind where people will prefer to believe lies over the truth. Then too, Isaac’s blessing upon his son Esau, given in Genesis 27:39-40, and the latter day uprising of the Edomites is now beginning to become into focus for us.

That conspiracy against Messiah and the rejection of His commandments as prophesied in Psalm 2 is interesting. But how is that relevant to human governmental hierarchies right now in this God rejecting world? Who cares about Jewish and Christian chatter about a coming Messiah, and Him putting constraints on their

moral decline in the West
moral decline in the West

godless lifestyles? Then too, what world leader comes right out and says, “We need to stop this Jewish Messiah from coming in to rule OUR world!” No one says that openly, right? So the conspiracy King David speaks of still remains hidden.

The 1700 year old Constantinian Accord,  the Judeo-Christian establishment of “God and king” or God and Western rulers is in decline. But it still has some pull. So, the principalities and powers and their hierarchies here below would never come right out and say that they are anti-Messiah. That would soon be broadly recognized as the spirit of antiChrist. So their sinister political and spiritual maneuverings against Jews and Christians remain cloaked, and the dagger aimed at the Jewish heart lies hidden in the occult realms. No doubt there are people out there who loathe and openly speak evil against the very idea of the Second Coming of Christ as King of kings and as Judge. But, most people keep this hidden. They would never admit it, even to themselves.

However, the dark angels on the Heavenly Court pulling their strings most definitely DO pay attention. In fact, they tremble at the thought. Even the demon horde Legion before being cast out by Jesus expressed his absolute terror of the coming Judgment saying, “Have you come to judge us before ‘the time?’”

So the angels of the rebellion still sitting up in the Heavenly Court as well as the demons lurking around here below, take the return of Messiah as Judge very very seriously. That is why their agents, “the people of the prince who is to come” are driven to defile, deface, deform, and destroy all manner of holy things.

So, the powers of darkness are pursuing their antisemitic and anti-Christian agenda with increased boldness. The reason they do this is now becoming clearer. Quite simply, they are desperate to prevent the end-time witness. Without a solid spiritual foundation in the God who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, unredeemed people will go along with “whatever”. They will be easily hoodwinked, and pulled into a state of spiritual blindness. Antisemitism can then take root in their soul without people even knowing what happened, or how it happened.

The vast majority of antisemites in the West come on as reasonable men. They will affirm a nice seemingly diverse, equitable, and inclusive politico-religious stance. They will deny that they despise the rule of Messiah, whether in the hearts of Christians or in Jerusalem. They will never announce opposition to His future rule.

But if they deny His place in their lives how can they truly know what is going on in their own hearts? Do they really know where their alien spirit guides are taking them?

Those being drawn into antisemitism are in fact confused and inwardly conflicted. In secretly despising the rule of Messiah they are being unwittingly coerced into a deeper rebellion against God. They can often go on embrace the Big Lie, and grasp the impossible dream that they themselves can be god.

Most of those drawn into the angry antisemitic parade cannot give a clear rational reason as to why they rage against Jews and against the nation of Israel. But being driven by strange and often malicious spirits they get up and demonstrate their anger anyway. They join the mob, shouting out what they are told to shout out, beating on the drum, marching in lockstep down the street, doing the goose-step and all that.

Narcissistic people driven by the angel of “self” will never say out loud that they oppose the coming of Messiah. But we can be sure that their evil angels, the principalities and powers do. Their purpose is to subvert any and all people who might be faithful to Messiah or in any way might herald His return. As we see in Psalm 82, the angels of the rebellion still sit on the Heavenly Court. These are the bad apples that King David’s songwriter Asaph wrote about. So, as national and international policy is enacted here below this binds or looses the angelic rulers on the Divine Council. Similarly, our prayers of intercession with unction can bind or loose the powers up in the lower heaven above.

So there is a spiritual war going on up there, just as there is on Main Street, and in our governments here below. The unholy powers have a desperate but hopeless plan. Believing their own lies they believe that by putting a stop to the end-time witness of Jews and Christians they can prevent the Last Day Judgment. These angels of the rebellion are in sheer terror of being judged and sentenced. Some of them even made a fruitless appeal to Enoch to intercede for them. These are the stars that will be seen falling at the end of the age. Their scheme is to draw people into their own angst and stop the end-time witness. But this will fail. Calvary has already sealed their fate.

1Corinthians 2
7  But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

There will most certainly be a witness by the Body of Christ to their sacred Head. So, no matter what the principalities and powers of darkness do in the interim, they stand as a defeated foe. As we see in Revelation chapter 6 the 5th seal witness will go forth as prophesied. And the angels of the rebellion WILL go up to trial on that Last Day, the Day of the Lord. They will face the very judgment they tried so desperately to forestall.

The Royal Jewish House of Judah holds the scepter for sovereign rule. This
will become manifest when Shiloh comes, the One to whom the scepter belongs.

And so, here we are seeing the hatred rising up to target the Jewish house of Judah. And as we see in Genesis 49 and elsewhere in scripture, Judah operates in the anointed spiritual flows of God’s righteous rule and law.

Psalm 108
8 “Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; JUDAH is my LAWGIVER;”


So, the Jewish House of David, in Judah Is entrusted with the sovereignty, the scepter, and the throne of David. Jesus Christ, the coming Messiah is the Son of David, the Lion of Judah. In Him we find the spiritual anointing to uphold God’s righteous rule and law in our lives.

Judah Lion scepter Shiloh
The Lion of Judah, the sovereign lawgiver and ruler,
Shiloh, the One to whom the royal scepter belongs

Here is a wider view of that. Any soul who invites Messiah into their life sees Him come in wearing His High Priest’s breastplate. All twelve jewels are there, including the jewel representing the royal Jewish House of Judah. So, when we look at the matter we come to this realization. Antisemitism embraces a flat-out rejection of the biblically based legitimate anointed spiritual flow of the Jewish House of Judah as lawgiver. At its root is essentially a spirit of lawlessness. It is a plot to stymie God’s righteous rule here on earth.

So now we come down to brass tacks to expose the root of antisemitism. At its root it is a seething hatred of the Throne of David. It is open hostility to the Holy Spirit who through the auspices of the indwelling Christ administers the Law of the Spirit. Under the administration of the New covenant the Law of the Spirit rules in the hearts of the redeemed, blesses nations, and revives congregations.

Our globalist elites and our tradition-bound churchmen are loathe to address all this lawless iniquity infecting Western Christendom in politics and religion. Why is militant feminism silent in the face of blatant exploitation of young girls? Why are the murderous Islamic machete attacks on Christian villages in Africa being ignored by globalist powers? Why is genocide and slavery in third world places not condemned and addressed by those in high places? And why are UN military policing forces reluctant to intervene in wars of genocide?

Where is justice and mercy being upheld in this world? Even our law enforcement departments are dealing with corruption within and failing the nations entrusted to their care. The black hats play dirty tricks on the white hats and good and faithful men in our secret services die. Law enforcement in our sheriff's departments turns a blind eye to drug trafficking and human trafficking. And yes, this world still has slavery.

So much of this blatant lawlessness still goes on unopposed. Meanwhile, those serving on globalist committees spend their days fuming about Israel having to defend itself. They prefer to spend their time condemning Israel for “over-reacting”.  Over two-thirds of all condemnations by the UN are against Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East. From 2015 through 2023, the UN General Assembly has adopted 154 resolutions against Israel. There were just 71 placed against other countries. Are we getting the picture here?

So, as we see, a growing number of misguided players among our Western elites are right now in a mode of flat-out rejection of the legal status of Jewish nation of Israel. They are denying Israel’s right to exist. They have never done that to any other nation.

In doing so they have come full circle. In their lawlessness they are rejecting the Throne of David, precisely as their forbearers did all those years ago at the Breach of Jeroboam. That Rebellion of the ten tribes came after the death of King Solomon in 932 B.C.E,

The Breach of Jeroboam, rebellion of the ten tribes
The Rebellion of Jeroboam and the Ten Tribes
The Breach of Jeroboam, rebellion against the Throne of David
The Breach of Jeroboam, rebellion against the Throne of David.

So then, at this point we are bound to ask the question, “What on earth is going on with this outbreak of lawlessness and antisemitism?” The Constantinian Accord of “God and king was established at the Council of Nicaea back in 325 C.E. In spite of the compromises this did leave us with some heroic histories and noble legacies. Good men, good priests and good soldiers, tried their best to approximate the biblical Judeo-Christian standard of the Shepherd-King. However, as we see with the general moral decline in the West, that ethos appears to be running out of puff. Does the Constantinian Accord have a shelf-life? Is that why things are going bad now?

The inter-European wars stopped after World War II. We shall never see them again. So the patriotism fostered by heroic returning soldiers of nations is fading from the culture. As we see in the Western nations, police wars are unpopular, and national borders

The 1700 Years of the Constantinian Accord

are no longer being preserved. Corruption is setting in, and lawlessness among migrants tolerated. Western nations seem to be  “going woke”. This declining clinical state in national politics does not look like it can be turned around. And so, what might God's plan be now? Does He have in mind to retore to us our rightful King, the Shiloh, to whom the sovereignty, the scepter, the Throne of David truly belongs, even Jesus Christ, the Son of David, and the the Lion of the Jewish Tribe of Judah?

Fortunately we are also seeing genuine biblical awakenings. Obviously God has another plan to unfold for His covenant people in the future 70th Week, and with a new and living Way on which to travel. With His commissioning in Isaiah 49:6 and in Matthew 28:18-20 comes the spiritual guidance and empowerment. Our hope now rests with those benefactors God has on His Heavenly Court. He keeps them hidden for good reasons We also have God’s Providence in the Latter Rain Holy Spirit outpouring as promised in Joel chapter 2. So there is hope for the witnesses of the latter days. With lamps shining brightly they will make their passage through a dark Valley of Decision, up onto the highway of holiness the prophet Isaiah spoke about. (Isa. 35)

The Envy and the Jealousy between the Royal Jewish House of Judah
and the House of Israel in Western Christendom and "the Church".

Let’s pause right here and survey this very frequent and recurrent matter, that of jealousy and its attendant resentment and anger. We see this psychological phenomenon in the disgruntled  gatherings of fallen mankind. It is a pervasive personal and societal  failing. This jealousy simmers and goes on to a seething resentment of others who appear to be “privileged”. National uprising occur in times of economic difficulty.  In such times we often see mobs, rising up in a general loathing of Jewish people. Typically antisemitism breaks out during the peak of a Western nation’s rise to prominence. This often occurs at the threshold into a new era. Is the Church drawn in by all this animosity? Oh yes. But does it really need to be?

Of course there will always be the red horse riders in the left wing extremes,  promoting the politics of victimhood. Widening disparities between the rich and the poor often triggers a dark mood of bitter resentment. Many will march to the drumbeat believing that the privileged ones are out to exploit them in a “race to the bottom”. We saw this in the first Exodus when the children of Israel were forced to make bricks without straw. Are we seeing harbingers of the Second Exodus? (Isaiah 11:11-12)

A strange de javu, a sense of belonging to Israel that arises in the hearts of those
born-again, and redeemed, even among people who are from places far away.

That brings us to this question. What is one big reason we become resentful of others and grow to hate them? The short answer is that we hate them because they have something that we want desperately, but have come to believe we can never have.

As we see in our histories, the West gives evidence of certain ancient memories. Christian people have a mysterious desire to return to Jerusalem. CUFI Christians in particular give evidence of a desire to reconnect with the Jewish house holding the fort there. Thousands of Christians from around the world gather every year in Jerusalem for the Feast of Tabernacles. This love of Israel is seen not only among Western biblical Christians but even with new Christians from third world countries. This is very wonderful.

Also lingering within Western Christendom is a strange sense of being lost and disenfranchised. When hard times bring grief and sadness there is often a sense of being cut off from promised blessings, or being left with an unrealized destiny. There is a strange sense of existential emptiness, of somehow belonging to Israel but having been cut off from realizing the promise. This has always been there as a latent atavism in Western Christendom.

There also seems to be some sort of a corporate memory, a homing instinct. Perhaps it is like salmon returning upstream into the very river in which they were spawned. A certain longing and obsession with Jerusalem is a dimly remembered part of our Western consciousness. The angst of it all is expressed in the arts, in our literature, and in our Celtic music.

Let's take a close look at where the Church, as we understand it, had its beginning. This was Shavuot, Pentecost Sunday, in the Passion Year. It was the fiftieth day on the omer count as measured out from Firtstfruits Resurrection Sunday. The Congregation of Israel's Messiah had existed prior to this, even as far back as the Exodus at the assembly before God at the foot of Mount Sinai. But this time, on that same Day of Pentecost in which Moses had brought the Law down from Mount Sinai, the Congregation of Israel was being visited very personally by the Holy Spirit en masse, as cloven tongues of fire came down to rest upon the heads of the 120 in the upper room. This epic Holy Spirit outpouring overflowed Israel to go out into the realms of the heathen Gentiles. That was indeed an awesome day of new beginnings.

Pentecost, and the 120 in the upper room on Day # 1 of the Church as it overflowed out of Israel are all Jews

As we look closely we notice of a number of very telling things. The fact that this Holy Spirit overflow was occurring in an upper room was significant. This was a spiritual visitation of God by His Holy Spirit to His Holy people, and not corporately brokered through an intermediary, Moses, as was the case at Sinai. The Presence of God came to all those involved that day very directly and in a very personal way. This was a cut above the usual earthly group meetings involving politics and religion.

We can also take note of the fact that these were cloven tongues of fire. This would appear to be an allusion to the dual anointing that Messiah sends to us by virtue of His dual anointing in the Order of Melchizedek. He is both High Priest of God Most High for Grace and salvation in the Gospel, and King of Salem, Prince of Peace. All this wonder was occurring on Zion Hill, and the issue of Zion being the apex of the Kingdom of Israel, the very place they had been tarrying.


The 120



Then too, we do in fact have a very remote memory and a solid biblical record of our church history as it overflowed out of Israel on day one. This epic new history all broke forth on the Day of Pentecost, the fiftieth day from Firstfruits Resurrection Sunday in the Passion Year.

Going back to the British evangelicals of the 19th Century there has been a spiritual movement in Christendom we could call Biblical Zionism. It is an evangelical movement with a deep sense of peace. This can be sensed by visitors to the Garden Tomb.

However, it is matter of some concern to pilgrim Christian’s that this sense of destiny in Jerusalem is becoming politicized. A certain political Zionism is now on the ascendency. Many, knowing its history, question it, and take a dim view of it. Political Zionism became manifest in unsavory ways in the Crusades. Our Jewish friends remember that history very well.

Today we see the Knights of Malta allied to dominionist Christian churches. Many embrace post-millennialism, dominion theology and replacement theology. There is a quiet political/military Zionism in the West that at the present time seems to be making inroads towards and around the Jewish state of Israel. Hopefully these are all efforts to protect Jewish Israel.

Throughout all this we see a Western Church that is confused about Israel. Even good biblical Christians are just not quite sure how they are to address the issue of Israel, or even have a handle on what Israel one is talking about at the time. There is talk of political Israel and spiritual Israel. We have the Israel of biblical times, the Israel we see today in post 1948 Israel, and then in Romans chapter 11 we hear of “All Israel” that is to be saved. Might “All Israel”, be the people John saw from every nation, race, and tribe gathered before the throne in Revelation chapter 7? Are these some of the stars that our spiritual father Abraham was shown way back in Genesis chapters 15 when he made covenant with God?

A good test for biblical Christians is to read Ephesians chapter 2:11-15. What is the text telling us? We already know that under the blood of Christ we belong to the Church or Congregation of Israel, under the atoning blood of Israel’s Messiah. But can we believe that we also belong to His Kingdom, the the COMMONWEALTH of Israel as well? Can we believe that under the blood of Christ we become citizens in the politeia or politic of Israel? And if not, then what is stopping us from believing what we have just read? Are we being blocked in our thinking by some sort of a trolling spirit? Are we subject to a binding group-think or even being charmed under religious witchcraft?

Upon being saved and born-again do we not take Messiah in the Order of Melchizedek into our hearts? Christians are generally fairly law abiding? Why? Does not the indwelling Christ by His Holy Spirit administer both the anointing of God’s Grace and the anointing of God’s righteous rule and Law?

What if we in Christendom are under the non-Jewish House of Ephraimz. As stated by the prophet Hosea in Hos. 7:8 are we “a (pan)cake not turned”? We are open to the anointing of God’s Grace. But why are we refusing to recognize our biblically established responsibility to walk out our faith in the anointing of God’s righteous rule and Law?

What is our problem here? Here is the remedy for our Christian jealousy disease staring us in the face. And yet we persist in our “us and them” attitude to our still estranged Jewish family members. Is that why we are having such a rough time of it with the growing lawlessness in Western Christendom?

If the “Law of the Spirit” is a fruit or an outworking of our salvation is that such a terrible thing? What if both Grace and Law are administered by the indwelling Christ? Is that a problem? Does He not sit upon His throne in human hearts adjudicating His Law, for good and godly behavior? Is not His Judgment Seat also His Mercy Seat, the altar of His Grace in the Gospel? And who are those two angels spreading their wings over the Mercy Seat?

Clearly, this unification of the two feuding parties and all nations into a new global order must be brought together under some uniting entity or another. But a worldwide gathering under whom? Will it be Christ, or Antichrist? Would it not be a wise choice to choose the winning side?

As our apostle Paul states in Ephesians chapter 2, the atoning blood of Israel’s Messiah establishes both the Congregation and the Commonwealth of Messiah. Even now, this is bringing peace to both parties and resolving the Family Feud. Both the Kingdom and the Priesthood are established in the dual office of Messiah in the Order of Melchizedek. This is the sound biblical, theological, and eschatological foundation ordained by God for the promised reconciliation between the Church and Jewish Israel. Yes, Jesus is the answer here.

The Bible says clearly in our prophetic scriptures that there will be a RECONCILIATION between the two feuding parties.

Isaiah 11:13 (KJV)
The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.

Each party can be  in covenant with the indwelling Messiah and with each other. They can be united, and yet “chosen” in their special distinctive spirit and character, not only making allowances for the other, but being complementary one of the other.

We see this demonstrated for us by that “show and tell” the prophet Ezekiel put on for us in Ezekiel chapter 37. The two sticks were destined to come together in the hand of Messiah. One stick is for Judah and the other stick is for Joseph. Can anything be clearer than that?

Herein lies the hope and the dream of a true and lasting, even an eternal world peace. When Messiah comes into the human heart as Redeemer all that jealousy, the resentment, and the antisemitism it engenders will dissolve away. That is already being seen as an observable fact in the lives of those  who are born again.

So, here we are, with talk of a Great Reset. We are at the threshold of the prophesied end-time contest of angels and men, a clash of kingdoms. It is a spiritual war, fought “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord.

So, if a Great Reset is in order who is sovereign in the matter, God or humanistic man? And what might the outcome of all this be?

If the Constantinian Accord of “God and king” is to fail what might God’s answer to this be? Does He have in mind to return the Western Christendom back to its original Sovereign, let’s say, under the House of David, in the Jewish House of Judah? Might that sovereign be the Lion of Judah, even the Son of David, and the Kingdom of our Messiah, Jesus Christ Himself? That would wrap up holy history for this age very wonderfully.

So, what might be the outcome of the end-time contest of the ages? The Christian and Jewish house are left to ponder what both Moses and the apostle Peter said. Each one spoke of a grand end-of-age reconciliation. They did not speak of a “royal nation”, (Jewish Israel), and a “holy priesthood”, (the Church). Instead, both Moses and Peter cross-linked the two. They both spoke of a “royal priesthood” and “holy nation”, or “kingdom of priests”.

So quite obviously, as we see in Isaiah 58:12 there must at some point be, a “Repairing of the Breach”, the Breach of Jeroboam. That means a glorious reconciliation, a reunion, and an end to what for 2775 odd years has been the quintessential “Family Feud”.

At the end of the Book we read, “the kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdom of our LORD, and of His Messiah”. So, the long awaited Millennium of Messiah will surely come, even an eternal Kingdom that will bring lasting peace for all mankind.

Let us pray that this message finds its way into the many human hearts that are vexed in these troubled times. May they find rest for their souls, even in that eternal precious fellowship with our Redeemer, who is also the “Prince of Peace”.
