I pray the Republican Party dies a thousand deaths, is reincarnated as something embarrassing, and dies a thousand more. I hope God melts it into molten sludge, grinds it into powder, and makes Mark Levin gargle with it. I petition the Almighty for the GOP to be broken into pieces like a Mosaic on the floor of Hell, to be trampled by the feet of the reprobate for all eternity.
I love America. The American Republic is not the GOP. The American Republic does not need the GOP.
The Republican Party has done 1/2 of the work managing America’s decline for 80 years. It has failed to keep its promises. It has failed to serve its purpose. It is, for all intents and purposes, imperceptible from the Democrat Patty except in color scheme and mascot.
The GOP has sold out the American people - and its own voters - more times than slaves on an antebellum auction block. The thought we owe it something, least of all our loyalty, is like Benedict Arnold demanding a salute.
You might as well complain that Tucker is a traitor to the IRS and wants to sabotage the DMV. Read the room. We’re down with it.
The Bible does not prohibit the marriage of a Christian 16 year old woman and a 60 year old man.
And yet, we know that generally it is unwise in most circumstances, not through scripture, but through natural revelation.
Interracial marriages are more likely to end in divorce, produce fewer children on average, and can result in significant health issues for the children. Thus, while not prohibited by scripture or categorically sinful, we observe that marriage is generally best when the man and woman are not too closely or distantly related.
It is wise to advise our children that they should marry someone like them in faith, habit, and culture that they are racially/ethnically close to.
I usually don’t care about the opinion of Political Beth Moore, because I don’t like hearing the Daily Wire twice.
But here’s a fun fact: Had the Jews spit on a Christian pilgrim in front of their assigned Janissary guard under Ottoman Rule- like what regularly happens today in Jerusalem - they’d have been beaten within an inch if their life, and if they survived, fined. By comparison, Israel doesn’t prosecute it because “it’s a cherished ancient Jewish custom.”
The Ottomans conquered a Palestine with 20% Christians, and 400 years later, there were 20% Christians. The Status Quo they established was adopted by Europe and preserved even after their reign ended. The Millet system protected them from Jewish violence, land confiscation, and property forfeiture. It exempted them from military service and exempted the elderly, disabled, widows, and children, and churches from taxation. It emphasized Holy Site preservation, established their legal protection, and on occasion, chipped in for repair.
All facts.
Outside Palestine, and outside that era, they were brutes, and perhaps - in certain eras - just as violent as the IDF is today. None of that excuses or diminishes their atrocities.
Meanwhile, after 77 years of Jewish rule, the Israelis have managed to accomplish what 400 years of Muslim rule could not - the utter collapse of indigenous Christianity in Palestine.
In Gaza, the IDF has murdered FAR more Christians than Hamas. In Lebanon, they’ve killed FAR more than Hezbollah. They bombed churches the Ottomans protected. They taxed congregations to whom the Ottomans gave protected status.
When Israelis defend their genocide, they point at Hitler. When Israelis defend bombing churches, they point at Nagasaki. When Israelis defend Lehava and La Familia burning down Jewish churches, beating Christian clergy, and intimidating nuns, they point at Boko Haram in Nigeria.
Thing is, my taxes don’t fund Boko Haram’s militia, Hitler is dead, and God will deal with the U.S. dropping a nuke down the chimney of the church headquarters in Asia. None of that can be stopped by an act of the U.S. Congress.
Sadly, there are brainless twits auditioning for a guest spot on the Jeremy Boreing Israeli Infomercial Hour who don’t give a single heartless damn about persecuted Christians going extinct in the Holy Land. Whether or not Jesus’ followers “have a right to exist” will not be on the questions list.
After reminding the church that believing Gentiles are the real children of Abraham, and that only Christians inherit God’s promises, Paul tells them to bear the burdens of their fellow Christians (Galatians 6:2).
Not Jews. Not Muslims. Not Buddhists. CHRISTIANS. We shoulder THEIR burdens, and God will one day hold us accountable for funding the nation that has made Christians an endangered species in the Promised Land.
When Christian churches are burned down by Jewish settlers, they don’t complain.
When Israel refuses to investigate and prosecute, they speak not a word.
When churches are told - out of the blue - the properties they’ve held for millennia will be confiscated if they don’t cough up millions in “back taxes” they’ve gone 17 centuries without being charged, they don’t speak up.
When the same churches are bombed 2,3,4 times for no discernible reason, they look the other way.
When nuns in a full habit are sniped in the head with a .308, they don’t care.
When Bethlehem is surrounded and squeezed on three sides to bankrupt and starve its Christian inhabitants, they don’t notice.
And when the Indigenous Christians who were there when the first Israeli prime ministers were still on Europe’s Most Wanted terrorist lists, tell us in official statements through their Patriarchs that they had it better under the Ottoman Millet System, then suddenly they get very interested in Christian persecution in other eras, times, and places to distract you from the reality of that cold, hard, immovable fact.
Yes, God instructed the Israelites in about 1025 B.C. to massacre them. Including their cattle (to demonstrate it was righteous vengeance, and not just because they wanted their stuff).
He can do that. He’s God, and they had filled the winepress of His fury for 400 years, until it overflowed. But, not the ancient Palestinians.
Their ancestors were NOT included in the Canaanite extermination mandate list of Deuteronomy 7 (Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, Jebusites). They weren’t the ancient Amalekites, either.
In fact, Amos 9:7 says it was God Himself that brought their ancestors to Philistia (Palestine) to settle there, JUST LIKE the Israelites:
“Are you not like the Cushites to me, O people of Israel? declares the Lord. Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor and the Syrians from Kir?”
God brought them to settle there. I’d say “blame God,” but Jews might take that literally. We saw what they did to God in the flesh.
Meanwhile, to help you think this out, not only are the Palestinians not on the extermination list, and God placed them there, but they’re also the ancestors of Abraham, genetically even more Semitic than the majority of Israelis (Ashkenaz is in the line of Japheth, not Shem). That’s why DNA studies demonstrate Palestinians are more kin to Abraham than, say, Israel’s Polish President.
So the irony is, you’re advocating for majority-Europeans to butcher Abraham’s genetic lineage because God told the Israelites to wipe out some other people three-thousand years ago.
Further, that was a “positive command” in Scripture - aka a command given to a specific people at a specific time for a specific purpose - it is not an eternal permission slip to commit mass murder.
IE, God told David to take the head of a giant, but that’s not to permission for some Hebrew Cosplayer to kill Shaq and his entire family.
In fact, God is going to redeem ALL of the Palestinians and give them Zion for inheritance.
Speaking of them, Zechariah 9:7 says, “I will take away its blood from its mouth, and its abominations from between its teeth; it too shall be a remnant for our God.”
1. Feel free to argue that modern Palestinians aren’t ancient Philistines just bc they’re related and live in the same place. But then, that’d be true for Israel, too.
2. Or argue that modern Israelis are ancient Israelites, but then the Palestines are also the Philistines, and God says to leave them alone because He has a plan to save them.
Take your pick. Either way, there’s no justification for murdering women, children, and civilian combatants because 3k years ago God’s winepress filled with wrath. It’s already been poured out.
We live in an age our Christian forbears longed to see, when the Jewish people would finally claim Jesus as one of their own.
But they do so now, not to worship or exalt Him, but to extract from His followers our loyalty and treasure. They remind us the God-Man their supposed ancestors murdered, once walked among them, and for this reason, we owe them our tithe and taxes.
They crucified Him, and now they extort his followers with promises of blessings or curses based on how many bombs we give them and how well we withhold criticism of their foreign policy, all on account of being the children of Abraham.
But they are not Abraham’s children. They’re imposters.
No, I’m not referring to the Khazar Theory. No, I’m not referring to the Edomite Theory. No, I’m not referring to the Ashkenazi being the sons of Japheth, according to the Bible, and not Shem. I’m not even referring to Jesus speaking of “those who say they are Jews, but are not, and are the Synagogue of Sa_t_n.”
I’m referring to Romans 9:6-8, which tells us that those who deny Jesus don’t belong to Israel. And all who believe in Jesus do belong to Israel, because a Jew is one inwardly, filled with the Spirit, because Romans 2:28-29 says, “For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter.“
After all, “those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham” and “those of faith who are the children of Abraham.”
Praise God, Christians around the whole world are re-discovering our birth-right, and what it means to be joint-heir with Christ, the Son of David (Romans 8:16-17).
As the rightful heirs of the Holy Land, it’s true landlords, we cannot support a kingdom that rejects its king. We can’t support a nation whose identity is in their rejection of our elder brother and Savior.
We refuse bless those who curse Him.
Christians must be better stewards of our inheritance, which in Jesus, is every square inch of this Earth.
