The word jew is not found in the Bible, and therefore represents a gross mistranslation. The word jew is deceptively inserted instead of Judea or Judean; the reason behind the false insertion is related to an Identity theft.
Below are several examples of that theft. Further on in this article we will look at the word jew inserted into scripture incorrectly.
In scripture we have the word Judean, or Judaean, which is in reference to one who lived in the land of Judaea or Judea. This is not to be confused with the Greek word loudas, a synonym for Judas or Judah (G 2455).
The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted. Psalm 18:46
This is a reference unto Christ Jesus,
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. Zech 9:9
Here we have an Old Testament prophecy concerning Christ, our redeemer.
Heb 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Jesus will return a second time, so to those of you who expect a secret rapture, well it just is not going to happen.
Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken. Isaiah 62:11-12
Christ is our Salvation and our Redeemer.
Gal 3:13-14 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Isaiah 62:1-2 For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth. And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
A cursory reading of Isaiah 62:2 would be explained as follows:
The gentiles shall see thy righteousness and the kings thy glory. And thus it would be taught that Israel and or Judah, are the chosen ones that are superior, as the gentiles will see her righteousness and glory.
However the real interpretation is as follows:
The nations shall see the righteousness of the King of our Glory. And thus the real teaching is that Christ, will reign in a restored Jerusalem that is cleansed, and the nations will see His Glory and righteousness.
Below are some verses that help us understand the words righteousness and glory.
The Lord will judge the world in righteousness (Psalm 9:8).
The Heavens show His righteousness, and the people will see His glory; but confusion comes to all those that serve graven images (Psalm 97:6-7).
Glory is used almost exclusively in reference to the Lord.
It is taught that those who bless Israel will be blessed, and those that curse Israel will be cursed.
The truth of the matter is that this blessing was given to Abraham and all nations through Christ; the blessing was not to Israel or Judah after the flesh that rejected the Father as well as the Son. The blessing is to the Israel of God, which most assuredly is not the man made nation that exists today (Gen 12:1-2).
Gal 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Gen 12:1-3 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 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.
This blessing was to Abraham, not modern day Israel! Mathew speaks of the generations that start with Abraham, continue through David and end with Christ. The blessings of Abraham come on all that have faith through Christ. The reason for this is that the promises were made to Abraham and his seed, which is Christ (Gal 3:14-16).
Keep in mind that neither Abraham, Isaac, Jacob nor his sons were of the tribe of Judah; so they were not jewish, nor did they practice judaism.
Furthermore even If those in Modern day Israel could prove a lineage from Jacob’s son Judah, which is highly unlikely, apart from Faith in Christ and adherence to His New Law, there is no blessing.
In Christ there is no difference between the Judeans or the Greeks, the important thing is to recognize that Born again believers are the true Israel of God, and are therefore members of the body of Christ. All who are truly transformed by Christ are Sealed with the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, and truly are the Israel of God.
1 Cor 10:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; And did all eat the same spiritual meat; And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
No where in scripture does God promise any rewards to those who claim to be jewish or to those that practice Judaism, this excludes Him from having any part in establishing a nation for them.
In stark contrast there are many verses condemning this particular religion and all man made religions; as well there are terrible judgments yet to take place in Jerusalem. To those who claimed to be jews but where of the synagogue of Satan, Jesus informed them that their house would become desolate.
Christ old the parable of the vineyard to the false teachers that would help plan His murder.
Matt 21:38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
Jesus also told these chief priests of the punishment for their wicked actions.
Matt 21:40-41 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Below are a few descriptions of the judgments yet to come on Jerusalem.
Zech 14:1-2 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Jer 9:10-11 For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone. And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.
Christians to whom the gospel message was given and received, must produce fruits or likewise be punished.
They are not all the Israel of God just because they happen to reside in a place called Israel. The true Spiritual Israel is the whole family of God that calls upon Jesus.
Luke 1:68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
Obviously this refers to all believers in Christ, as he did not only come to set free those that were in Israel but indeed all of mankind.
Rom 9:6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they [are] not all Israel, which are of Israel:
It is taught that the establishment of the modern day nation of Israel is the fulfillment of the second gathering.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished. Isaiah 51:6
This speaks of the return of Christ at the end of this age.
Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings. Isaiah 51:7
The new covenant of Christ, is when He puts his laws into our minds, and writes them in our hearts. These are the people of God (Heb 8:10).
Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away. Isaiah 51:11
Christ, through His shed blood has redeemed us from the curse of the law. The blessings of Abraham can be received by all nations through Jesus Christ. All of mankind can receive the promise of the Spirit of Christ through a true faith in Him (Gal 3:13-14).
Born again believers are the true Israel of God; this represents all that faithfully follow Christ in Spirit and in Truth. True followers of Christ do not follow the masters of deception posing as pastors. These false teachers do not understand even the most basic doctrines of Christ, including Salvation and the true Israel of God.
Gal 6:15-16 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
2 John 7-11 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
Whosoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrines of Christ, hath not God. Born again believers are the true Israel of God; these are in Christ, and abide by the teachings of Christ. He, who has the Word of Life in his heart and mind, hath both the Father and the Son. Only born again believers are the true Israel of God, and through the Spirit that dwells in them, a faithful walk with Him is possible.
If there come any unto you, that brings a doctrine that is not of Christ, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed. For he that rejoices in evil partakes in his evil deeds (2 John 1: 3-11).
We are not to receive any teachings that are not of Christ; by rejoicing with the deceivers we join with them in their evil deeds. Furthermore anyone that denies the fact that Christ did indeed appear in the flesh has that wicked spirit of the antichrist, and is an adversary of Jesus the Messiah. Because Spirit filled believers are the Israel of God, they understand their place and purpose with the Creator of all things.
To recognize the deniers of Christ that reside in the modern man made state of Israel, as the Israel of God, or the chosen ones, is a dangerous and deadly deceptive doctrine. Those that despise Christ who created all things are definitely chosen, but it is unto destruction (Col 1:12-18).
The Father gave backsliding Israel a bill of divorcement and put her away as she played the whore with many false gods. Israel after the flesh was not the Israel of God. Judah was even more treacherous in her whoredoms, so she also was not considered the Israel of God (Jer 3:6-11). Only Born again believers are the true Israel of God. Without His Spirit we can not understand His Word, or escape the deceptions of this present evil world..
At the time when Jesus was born the physical kingdom of Israel was long gone. Christ the Lion of the tribe of Judah came to Judea to present the new covenant and thus fulfill what was written in the law and the prophets. The house that was called by the name of the Lord had become a den of thieves. The majority were not of the tribe of Judah, but were actually of the synagogue of Satan.
It is taught that 144,000 jews, witness to the world after the christians are raptured to heaven.
Titus 1:14-16 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Today we not only have jewish fables to contend with, but now we have judeo-christian ones as well. One that is quite outrageous is that the church will be raptured away, and yet many come to be saved through the 144,000 of the twelve tribes of Israel that are left behind.
It is taught that these witness to the world, and that the Great Tribulation is a time for Israel to come to salvation, as all the Christians are raptured away. Below are the facts that prove this theory to also be false, as well as the relevant verses that refer to those that are sealed.
Rev 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
All those in Christ are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. Below is a Strong’s breakdown of this verse. Also God does the sealing so the words we have, can be ignored.
The correct meaning of the Greek word achri, is those (G 3739). A possible translation then, is that the destruction is not to occur until those who are to be sealed are indeed sealed.
Saying <G3004>, Hurt <G91> not <G3361> the earth <G1093>, neither <G3383> the sea <G2281>, nor <G3383> the trees <G1186>, till <G891> <G3739> we have sealed <G4972> <G4972> the servants <G1401> of our <G2257> God <G2316> in <G1909> their <G846> foreheads <G3359>. Rev 7:3
Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
All those in Christ are sealed with his Holy Spirit.
The foundation of God stands solid, having this seal. The Lord knows all those that are his people (2 Tim 2:19).
Rev 7:4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
Instead of the word and, in Rev 7:4, the word also should be used. The reason being is that the Greek word kai, is also a connector (G 2532). The servants of God and the 144,000, have the same seal of god.
The Elect that are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise will go through the Great Tribulation, and have the power to endure until the end.
There is nothing to suggest that the 144,000 who are sealed witness to anyone.
Rev 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
In this verse the 144,000 are not mentioned, but we know that there are believers in Christ that are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, and thus protected from the Fifth Trumpet Judgment (Rev 9:1-11).
The important thing to realize is that all of God’s Elect are sealed with the Holy Spirit. The Sealing occurs when we are baptized in the Spirit. Becoming a Born again follower of the Lord Jesus, is also a reference to this gift given to His Chosen.
Rev 14:1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.
Jesus, who is The Lamb of God, stands upon Mount Zion with the 144,000 that are sealed. With reference to this group here in this chapter, there are two possible scenarios:
Rev 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
It should also be noted that the 144,000 are in fact redeemed from among men, and are the first fruits unto God. The word redeemed in this verse refers to a purchase. Jesus redeemed or bought us, with His shed blood that takes our sins away.
This group also is said to be without fault before the throne of God. Compare the words first fruits and redemption in the verse below for context.
Romans 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
In scripture we have the word Judean, or Judaean, which is in reference to one who lived in the land of Judea. No one considers a jew to be a Judean today, but that is in fact the correct meaning of the word. This deceptive change did not occur until the eighteenth century.
The word jew, simply referees to someone who resides in the land of Judea, irrespective of their tribe, religion or race.
Someone that is considered Jewish can be born anywhere in the world, and must have only a Jewish mother, or convert to the religion of Judaism.
Judaism was not the religion of the Hebrews, and the word Judaism is not ever mentioned in the Word of god. The religion of the Pharisees was condemned by Jesus, primarily because they did not keep the Old Testament law. The primary sect of Judaism today is basically a form of Babylonian tamudism. This belief system dates back to before the first advent of Jesus, and has spiritual implications from the time of the Babylonian captivity.
Matt 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
Matt 23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Gal 2:14 But <G235> when <G3753> I saw <G1492> that <G3754> they walked <G3716> <G0> not <G3756> uprightly <G3716> according to <G4314> the truth <G225> of the gospel <G2098>, I said <G2036> unto Peter <G4074> before <G1715> them all <G3956>, If <G1487> thou <G4771>, being <G5225> a Jew <G2453>, livest <G2198> after the manner of Gentiles <G1483>, and <G2532> not <G3756> as do the Jews <G2452>, why <G5101> compellest thou <G315> the Gentiles <G1484> to live as do the Jews <G2450>?
The word for jew in the new testament Ioudaios G 2453
The passages below are in reference to the word Ioudaios, and most of them insert the word jew, incorrectly. All of the words that are highlighted and underlined refer to the same word!
Matt 2:1-2 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
Mark 1:5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins
John 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
All right stop right there, salvation came out of Judaea, is the real translation!
John 4:21-26 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
John 5:16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
The true Hebrews who were of the twelve tribes, welcomed their redeemer.
John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
The Sabbath was made for men, but men were not made for the Sabbath (Mark 2:27).
The greek word loudaia, occurs 44 times in the new testament. 42 times it is correctly translated as Judaea, twice the false word jewery is inserted!
Here are those false translations:
John 7:1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
Luke 23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
Many of the residents in Judea were amazed at the teachings of Jesus.
John 7:15-19 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
The traditions of men, were well under way when Jesus walked in Judea. The Law that was given unto Moses, was replaced with what we now know as the Babylonian Talmud and other oral traditions of men.
John 11:51-54 And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death. Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
Christ at this time walked not openly in Judea.
John 18:35-37 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
Pilate found no fault in Jesus, as what was presented was a false witness against him (Math 26:59).
John 19:12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
Acts 12:1-3 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also.
Acts 18:28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
Acts 21:39 But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.
Paul was a Judean, and he was of the tribe of Benjamin.
1 Cor 9:19-21 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
Acts 26:19-21 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision: But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea,(G2449) and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance. For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.
Paul once a Pharisee, was released from this wicked cult and was now persecuted like his Savior was at the hands of those in Judea.
Romans 10:12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
There is no difference between one who dwells in Judea or in Greece.
1 Cor 12:12-13 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Gal 3:27-29 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Rev 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Other mistranslations
Jewish G 2451- Used one time
Titus 1:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
These fables are still prevalent today, and are based on the traditions or doctrines of men. A similar occurrence has also invaded christianity.
Jews G 2452 – Used one time
Gal 2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
Jews G 2450 – Used one time
Gal 2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
Jews religion – G 2454 Used twice
In reference to the jews religion in the next two verses, the word religion is added where it should not be, and obviously the word jew is in reference to Judea.
Gal 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Yes, the two tribes of the House of Judah became known as “Jews” after they came back from the Babylonian captivity. They comprised the tribe of Judah, the tribe of Benjamin, some Simeonites and the priestly line of Levi, plus a small number of the other tribes who had joined them from the northern kingdom, sometimes called the House of Ephraim.
The remainder of the tribes which were of the northern kingdom (Ephraim) did not return after they were taken captive by Assyria but remained a displaced people being dispersed throughout other nations.
The southern kingdom of Judah (Jews) who resided in Judea were the only ones who were living int he land at the time of Jesus/Yeshua who had retained their identity as Israeliites

To the Romans
1 Paul, a slave of Jesus Christ and called to be an apostle, separated to God’s good news, 2 which he promised aforetime through his prophets in the holy Scriptures, 3 concerning his Son, who sprang from the seed of David according to the flesh, 4 but who with power was declared God’s Son according to the spirit of holiness by means of resurrection from the dead—yes, Jesus Christ our Lord, 5 through whom we received undeserved kindness and an apostleship in order that there might be obedience of faith among all the nations respecting his name, 6 among which [nations] YOU also are those called to belong to Jesus Christ— 7 to all those who are in Rome as God’s beloved ones, called to be holy ones:
16 For I am not ashamed of the good news; it is, in fact, God’s power for salvation to everyone having faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek; 17 for in it God’s righteousness is being revealed by reason of faith and toward faith, just as it is written: “But the righteous one—by means of faith he will live.”
2 Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are, if you judge;
8 however, for those who are contentious and who disobey the truth but obey unrighteousness there will be wrath and anger, 9 tribulation and distress, upon the soul of every man who works what is injurious, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; 10 but glory and honor and peace for everyone who works what is good, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God.
17 If, now, you are a Jew in name and are resting upon law and taking pride in God, 18 and you know his will and approve of things that are excellent because you are orally instructed out of the Law;
28 For he is not a Jew who is one on the outside, nor is circumcision that which is on the outside upon the flesh. 29 But he is a Jew who is one on the inside, and [his] circumcision is that of the heart by spirit, and not by a written code. The praise of that one comes, not from men, but from God.
30 What, then, is the superiority of the Jew, or what is the benefit of the circumcision? 2 A great deal in every way. First of all, because they were entrusted with the sacred pronouncements of God.
This is but a few of the places where the word JEW occurrs in the bible.
Have a read of the book of Ruth.. it is also in there many times.
Original Hebrew and Greek there is no “jew” in the text. The translators of all those bibles put the word “jew” in there in direct opposition to what the word in the original says.
Similar to how they replaced the name YHWH, with ‘Lord’ and ‘God’ around 7000 times in your ‘translated’ bibles.
So, who controls the printing presses of the Bibles ?
yes and yes. more posts please! recommended.
Thank-you Working on part two
The Christian Identity Crisis??
Much of the information provided has validity however we must remember that in every good lie is an element of truth. The following statement demonstrates the true agenda of this Antichrist. “Born again believers are the true Israel of God; this represents all that faithfully follow Christ in Spirit and in Truth.” The term born again has become so distorted by those who embrace the concept of a one time redemption. They believe and or advocate that Jesus Christ’s crucifixion wipes away all sin by merely accepting Christ as their individual savior. This is not even close to the truth. It is a lie designed to confuse and mislead. Jesus Christ was created by God with a specific purpose which is totally lost in this falsity. More than some proclamation is required of us so please don’t fall into this snare.
Jesus, a perfect human being, a man with the mind and purpose of his Heavenly Father was created by God for a specific purpose. He in his perfection was to become the unblemished lamb to be sacrificed for the redemption of sin. If you recall prior to the exodus from Egypt during the final plague God imposed on them, God’s people were instructed to slaughter an unblemished lamb and smear it’s blood upon their doorsteps. In doing so they escaped the wrath that befell all of Egypt. From that point on the Passover celebration became routine, a celebration depicting the eternal sacrifice that was to come through the blood of the Lamb, Jesus Christ.
After his execution Jesus was resurrected by God into a spiritual presence similar to what will happen at Christ’s second coming when 144,000 of God’s tried and true are to be raised from the dead and meet Christ in the heavens. Those living who make it through the great tribulation will live full lives under the Millennial Rein. Christ rules as King of kings and the resurrected to spirit help run God’s government here on earth.
After the one thousand year period there will be the second resurrection. Unlike the first these people are raised from the dead and given rejuvenated physical bodies. They will be granted a period to decide if they want to live by the example set during Christ’s rein. If they decide they prefer another wayof living they will suffer what scripture refers to as the “second death.” Remember those in the first resurrection are not subject to the second death. The reason is simple; they are spirit. They have become part of Elohim, the family of God.
After Christ’s rein God will take His place in the Kingdom of God here on earth, He our God, our Father and we His children. This is God’s plan. Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations and distortions. Man is not going to die and ascend to Heaven nor will he be cruelly thrust into actual fire and brimstone. The false depiction of God and His plan for mankind is how Satan the devil misleads people. Wide is the road to destruction and narrow is the path to righteousness. Think about how many people follow the bogus Heaven/Hell lie? Like they say the proof of the pudding is in the taste. This is a prevailing theory. Sadly as I’ve mentioned it is not of God, it is the deception of His evil adversary.
Just-My-Opinion
Normally I never respond to anonymous entries but I will in this case:
You mentioned right out of the shoot: “Much of the information provided has validity however we must remember that in every good lie is an element of truth.”
Well, this must also apply to you because Jesus was not “created”. He was here from the very beginning. they are a Trinity, the Father, Son, and the holy Spirit. One was not “created” before the other. Their existence has always been. In John 8:58 “Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” God told Abraham in Exodus 3:14 “And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.”
The mention of “the first-born of all creation” means that he existed originally, before there was; he was, and is, and is to come. Christ was physically born over 2000 years ago, and yet Apostle Paul wrote in Colossians 1:15 “Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:”
In a letter to the church at Colossae, the Apostle Paul gave an intriguing description of Jesus. In it, he explained Christ’s relationship to God the Father and to creation. Some have claimed that Paul’s description of Christ as the first-born of creation means that Jesus was created — not eternal, not God. Such a doctrine, however, conflicts with the rest of the Bible. Christ could not be both Creator and created; John 1 clearly names Him Creator. Let’s take a careful look at the passage where Jesus is called the first-born.
Colossians 1:15-21
“And He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities — all things have been created by Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything. For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.”
Jesus is God
Christ’s relationship to His Father begins with the phrase “the image of the invisible God.” The word “image,” meaning copy or likeness, expresses Christ’s deity. This word involves more than a resemblance, more than a representation. He is God! Although He took on human form, He has the exact nature of His Father (Hebrews 1:3).
The “Word” of John 1:1 is a divine Person, not a philosophical abstraction. In the incarnation, the invisible God became visible in Christ; deity was clothed with humanity (Matthew 17:2). God is in Christ: visible, audible, approachable, knowable, and available. All that God is, Christ is.
Jesus is Lord of Creation
The description “first-born of all creation” speaks of Christ’s preexistence. He is not a creature but the eternal Creator (John 1:10). God created the world through Christ and redeemed the world through Christ (Hebrews 1:2-4).
Note that Jesus is called the first-born, not the first-created. The word “first-born” (Greek word “prototokos”) signifies priority. In the culture of the Ancient Near East, the first-born was not necessarily the oldest child. First-born referred not to birth order but to rank. The first-born possessed the inheritance and leadership.
Therefore, the phrase expresses Christ’s sovereignty over creation. After resurrecting Jesus from the dead, God gave Him authority over the Earth (Matthew 28:18). Jesus created the world, saved the world, and rules the world. He is the self-existent, acknowledged Head of creation.
Finally, the phrase recognizes Him as the Messiah: “I will make Him [Christ] My first-born, higher than the kings of the earth” (Psalm 89:27).
Six times the Lord Jesus is declared to be the first-born of God (see Romans 8:29; Colossians 1:15, 18; Hebrews 1:6; 12:23; Revelation 1:5). These passages declare the preexistence, the sovereignty, and the redemption that Christ offers.
Thus, the phrase “first-born of all creation” proclaims Christ’s preeminence. As the eternal Son of God, He created the universe. He is the Ruler of creation!
Wow, that is an awesome commentary!! You are a gifted writer.
Amen and Amen
You are so correct, most claim that they are Born Again, without any evidence whatsoever to show an inward change. The transformation is not there because becoming Born Again is not a recital of mere words, but it is when the Word of God takes residence in our Temple.
The Assurance Of Salvation Is Spiritually Discerned
That which is born of the flesh is of the flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is of the spirit.
Unless you are Born again you can not have a true knowledge of the Kingdom of God, or the true Assurance of Salvation.
Being born again and receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit are one in the same. Unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he can not enter into the Kingdom of God (John 3:3-8).
The greatest tragedy is believing you are Born again without ever experiencing the true indwelling of the Holy Spirit. This lie is an empty promise that leads to death and destruction, as the ability to truly understand Christ and His life changing testimony is impossible without His Spirit (John 14:17; 15:26; 16:13; Eph 1:13).
All false teachers and the congregations that they preside over, that do not truly have the Holy Spirit have a form of godliness. But they deny the power thereof, as it is quite impossible to truly know Jesus, apart from having His Spirit that abides in the temple of the true believer. The first chapter of Ephesians is very powerful, and gives us a vivid description of the Assurance of Salvation that we can possess.
The believer that has been sealed is Born Again. This life changing event is also known as the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Without this infilling we can not understand and walk in the Word, and therefore the Assurance of Salvationis impossible.
Eph 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise
Christ purchased us through His shed blood and gives us the Holy Spirit as a down payment. We are sealed or set apart from the world at this point, and the fulfillment of this contract which is our inheritance, occurs upon our redemption at His second coming.
Eph 1:14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Christ spoke plainly when He said that unless you believe and are baptized you shall not be saved. He did not say you are saved, but you shall be saved.
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Emphasis added
John the Baptist proclaimed that are two Baptisms; one is unto repentance, and the other is unto the Assurance of Salvation through the Holy Spirit.
All in Christ can have the Assurance of Salvation , but it does require the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Without the Spirit it is impossible to even understand the Word of God. This is why there is so much division in the so-called Christian church today. It has been hijacked by power hungry liars and thieves.
Luke 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
John also tells us in salvation scriptures that we will be baptized with fire. This will be a process in which the impurities and useless pursuits of our lives will be burned up. What is left behind will be the determination of what type of rewards are due.
1 Cor 3:13-14 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
Our faith will also be tried in much the same way as our works. The end result of real faith, is that it automatically produces good works, unto the Assurance of Salvation .
1 Peter 1:7-9 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
It is the Spirit of Truth that enables us to truly receive and walk in Christ; the Spirit witnesses or confirms the truth of Jesus to us. It also empowers us to be a true witness to others with the authority of Christ.
John 15:26-27 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: And ye also shall bear witness,( testify) because ye have been with me from the beginning.
Assurance Of SalvationWe are saved by the renewing of the Spirit; the picture here is that of our old nature being made new, when we put on the mind of Christ. The same word is used when Paul warns us not to conform to the world but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. The word regeneration is used by Christ to describe the process of our immortality and incorruption when we are changed at his second coming. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is a necessary gift, that needs to be sought after, to truly realize the Assurance of Salvation .
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he (saves us) by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
The Hope of our Assurance of Salvation, is actually both a tactical and a defensive weapon, that we use to endure and conquer.
1 Thess 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
We love Him because He first loved us. We believe through the power of the Holy Spirit that provides us with a lasting faith unto our Assurance of Salvation.
1 Peter 1:8-9 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
This post is just plain Anti-Semitic!
Jesus was a “Jew”, born into the tribe of Judah.
His name in Hebrew is Yehoshua. In the common spoken language of the day, it was Yeshua.
He was very much a Jew, practised Jewish culture and kept the Law and said that He did not come to do away with the law. Matthew 5:17
Any Gentiles are grafted into the nation of Israel Ephesians 2:11-15, 19
Only by being grafted-in do Gentiles become part of the “Commonwealth” (KJV), or nation of Israel.
This post is an attempt to misconstrue facts to support a doctrine. In doing so the unlearned and ignorant of the original languages are led to believe that what you say is true …. – and it isn’t!
Those who have access to the original languages of Hebrew and Greek know that the equivalent to our English “Jew” appears in both languages.
It was in current usage in Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) time and Paul used it freely in his epistles.
There is no ‘jew’ in Hebrew or Greek.
Yeshua is a Feminine name with a Feminine ending .
No “Grafting In”, that is “paul” trash, flesh minded nonsense.
Believers are BORN of El Shadday, no grafting in lies.
You reveal your ignorance!
And as for the name Yeshua, it is the Aramaic equivalent of Yehoshua (Hebrew form) which was the commonly spoken language of the day in His time.
Noni,
Oh, you prefer Aramaic, in a dominant Hebrew tnkh, go for it. I was only referring to Hebrew for those who were Hebrews.
And for those who follow Paul, or whose eyes are on Paul while “following” Yhwshua….
They probably are only-just graftees… no birth experience for them…only grafting into some tree
mister Paul attempts to obfuscate the TRUE VINE experience with Yhwshua….
Yeah, the phony word “jew” has been an effective deception for some time hasn’t it ? Attempts to lump the Khazar DNA with
the true 12 tribes, making the fooled believe that a “jew” is not
just Judean but all 12 of the tribes.
the anti semetic card is the answer when you refuse to deal with the facts
very lame
Jesus is God Yehoshua: “the LORD is salvation,”
I guess Jesus was anti semetic in what he had to say to the leaders of the Judeans
here are some of His Quotes
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. John 8:44
YHWH or Jehovah was the greatest anti-semite, here is what God had to say to Judah
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Mat 3:7
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me. 3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. 4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. 5 Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. 6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
Isaiah 1:2-6 (KJV)
Our desire is for all to come to Christ to escape the judgments. We take no delight in the perishing of any, however many will indeed perish because they adhere to dead works!!
How dare you insinuate filthy accusations against us for declaring the truth?
We don’t attack you for your beliefs, but rather show the Scriptures that declare there is:
• Only one way, and this is through Christ.
• Only one real Truth and this is revealed by His Spirit of Truth.
• Only one Real Faith. This is the same Faith that Abraham possessed
• Only one body, all who are in Christ Jesus
We Love all who are lost, otherwise these posts would not transpire.
Those who are uncomfortable in their so-called faith or belief system, (because it is of an ever changing testament of men, who are all but sinners) must resort to attacking anyone who disagrees with their truths! We provide clear and concise scripture from the Old and New Testaments and:
• They are not understood, because without the Holy Spirit, they can be interpreted to mean whatever suits your particular fancy.
• What is presented is of the Word of God and yet the verses are not read, and if they are not read nor understood then the replies are quite useless for all.
• Even without the commentary what is presented should be easy to grasp, if one truly is a Child of the Living God. And yet it is not, because the wisdom of man is the guiding light for many; that quite often simply is darkness, masquerading as light!
• The ridiculous arguments related to articles presented by this Ministry, are simply an attack on the Words of Christ. We present no new doctrines just the correct interpretation of what is already written, as they are revealed to us.
• If you find fault in them move along. Your hatred for the truth is a witness against you.
We attack no man; that is a job according to scripture for the King of Kings, who asks all: “when I return shall I find faith on the earth”
Luke 18:7-8 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
Here is a parable for you self-righteous hypocrites!
Luke 18:9-14 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. Isa 2:11
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted. Psa 75:10
To whom much is given much is required. To be comfortable in our own Assurance of Salvation, without sharing what the Holy Spirit has allowed us to clearly see, would be sinful and worthy of Great Judgment.
Christ is the only Redeemer. Many, who claim a special identity, purpose and place with Christ, destroy what is implied and never utilize context. Here is an example of the ignorance displayed.
Romans 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
So, from this one verse a twisted interpretation would falsely claim that Israel and thus the tribes (including Judah) were in no means cast away, and that they are his people.
Paul was not jewish, not of the tribe of Judah, and was called by the Holy Spirit to witness to the world of Christ. The Father did not cast away those who were faithful to Him, consider the faith of Abraham.
But wait it gets much better!
Romans 11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.
This is in reference to the Lord’s knowledge of who would indeed come to Him, through Christ.
And here is the best verse used out of context completely.
Romans 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
If you insist on using the above verses to justify your special identity, look at the previous chapter for context.
Romans 10:1-3 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
What else is Paul talking about in these passages?
Here is a link to an article on the True Israel of God, Born Again Believers Are The True Israel of God
Note: there is nothing in this article about speaking in tongues.
Romans 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
God’s people are the ones that faithfully follow Him; those that reject the Son also reject the Father.
Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
The remnant represented the people that would be persecuted by the same wicked spiritual rebellion that possessed those that persecuted Christ; anyone that hates the Son also hates the Father, and has no covering for their sin.
None of these evildoers will be spared destruction, as they all hated Christ without a reason (Psalm 69:4; John 15:19-25).
Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, however the Christian church teaches that Israel of the flesh that for the most part despises Christ, is still a branch of the Lord’s planting.
The remnant at the end of this age, are those who keep the commandments of Christ and the word of His testimony; they worship God in the Spirit and rejoice in Christ (Rev 12:17; Phl 3:3).
Romans 11:20-22 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural (or original) branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
Paul makes a clear distinction regarding the people that belong to God; say not therefore to those that are put away that God has put away His people. God did not put away those that He knew from the beginning that were predetermined to obtain an inheritance with His Son (Rom 11:2, 5, 7; Rom 8:29; Eph 1:11).
Because Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, we can be called the children of God, His chosen and the Elect, if we abide in Him.
As Branches we must produce good fruit or we also will be cut off, and Christ will say at that Day of Judgment, depart from me you workers of iniquity.
Israel after the flesh for the most part did not obtain the knowledge of the Kingdom even though the Kingdom of God came to them. Those that were of the sect of the Pharisees and Sadducees were a rebellious people that were contrary to all men and thought of themselves as holier than all others (Isa 65:2-7; 1 Thes 2:14-16).
Obviously these were not His people as they wanted the inheritance that Christ would offer to all mankind, for themselves.
They murdered the Messiah fearful that all would believe on Him because of His miracles and words of truth.
They were only concerned with the Romans taking away their position and power over the people; truly they were of their father the devil (Math 21:33-41; John 11:47-53; John 8:38-44).
If Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, then what right do those that have always despised Him have to be called a Branch of God?
Israel after the spirit, the remnant according to the election of grace, did obtain the knowledge of the truth in Christ Jesus.
If one can understand the simple message of truth, that Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, the message in Romans chapter 11 is really not that difficult to understand.
God allowed those that He originally appeared too, to make a choice; some rejected Him and as a result of their fall the Lord’s punishment was quite severe. They were destroyed for their unbelief, and were never considered to be His people.
Those that accepted Him were treated with goodness, and the promise of inheritance; to all that received Him they were given the power to become the sons of God. This promise was given to all peoples (John 1:12; Rom 8:14; 1 John 23:1-2).
Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, and every branch that does not bear fruit is taken away. Just like it was when Christ came to those who claimed to be of the house of Judah, so too will it be at the end of this age (John 15:1-20).
The promises are Spiritual and were not made to Abraham and his seed as of many, but to Jesus Christ, who sealed us with His Holy Spirit of promise (Gal 3:16).
The promise to be called sons of God was not given to the tribe of Judah or to Israel through the Old Testament law (Rom 4:13-16).
It is through Christ alone can men receive the promise of eternal life, as Jesus is the vine and we are the branches of His planting (Eph 1:13; 4:30).

The truths in Romans chapter eleven will become even clearer after studying the articles below:
Jesus Is The Vine And We Are The Branches | The 144,000 That Are Sealed
The 144,000, who follow Jesus, are sealed as are all in Christ.
Sealed With The Holy Spirit Of Promise |Set Apart In Christ Unto Salvation
How about the New Covenant, is the old still in play?
The answer is revealed in the article Redeemed From The Old Testament Law
Then look at Jesus revealed in the Old Testament Jesus Christ in the Old Testament
The claim is made that, “He will save His people and enter once again into a covenant relationship with them” If they have already refused His New Covenant, how is this possible?
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. Isaiah 5:13-14
The above verse speaks of the fact that they have no knowledge. They falsely claimed to be saved with or by works as do most christians!!
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! 21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Isaiah 5:20-21
1 Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill:
2 And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
4 What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
5 And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
6 And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.
7 For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.
Isaiah 5:1-7 (KJV)
Consider the parable of the vineyard that Christ gave
Mark 12:1-9 A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.
And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. Isaiah 11:4
This speaks of Christ, we are warning all to come out of the false teachings of man and enter into a relationship with the King of glory!!
10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people;
to it shall the Nations seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. Isaiah 11:10-11
Hold on a second. Wasn’t Christ himself referred to as “King of the Jews”, in the bible?
Matthew 2:2 (NIV): “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”
John 18:12 (KJV): ” Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,”
John 19:21 (NIV): “The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”
From what I can tell, the word Jews is found all over the New Testament. Of course, it wouldn’t be in the OT, as they referred to themselves as either Israelites, or Hebrews.
Matthew was written in the 4th century CE by an anonymous author. Same as Mark, Luke and John, all works attributed to the Turkish trader, Pharisee Saul/Paul and all else apart from the collection of Greek scrolls called Revelation being the oldest material that dates to c70 CE.
Judaism didn’t exist until after 70 CE. There is no reference to Jews or Judaism in the Hebrew literature other than as a reference to Judeans being the population of Judea. It does mention Israelites as a group of Egyptian refugees, one of a great many such refugee groups during the Aegean apocalypse, along with other civilisations that ceased to exist from the Aegean apocalypse c1’200 BCE to the conquest of the Roman empire during the 1st century BCE.
Judaism was created by the political party called the Pharisees, after 70 CE. See my post below.
“Matthew was written in the 4th century CE by an anonymous author. Same as Mark, Luke and John…”
Blah blah blah.
Too bad we don’t have any Papyri evidence from the SECOND century. Or do we…

Facts are what they are Walter. Down voting them wont make them any less true.
I didn’t down vote you, Pix.
But you didn’t provide any facts.
I did.
They have nothing to do with the subject. We have much more ancient (thousands of years older) papyri from Egypt, nothing to do with Christianity though.
You’re not only an idiot, Pix… But you play one on T.V.
Thus sayeth the Pix:
New Testament Papyri from the Second Century have nothing to do with the New Testament.
Here endeth the Pixism.
Brilliant, your Grace.
Judaism was created some time after Rome under emperor Titus Flavius, wiped Judea and Israel off the face of Earth in 70 CE, by the political party of money lenders and traders called the Pharisees. It most probably was invented in Rome via the most influential Pharisee of them all, Roman emperor Titus Flavius personal historian and pet piggy bank, none other than Josephus Flavius.
Catholicism was created somewhere during the 1st to 2nd centuries CE in Turkey and neighboring Armenia as an official amalgamation of the pagan mystery cults Mithraism and Dionysus.
It reached the Roman empire via Constantine in the 4th century CE, he was born and raised in Constantinople/Istanbul, Turkey, and forced on the entire Roman empire on pain of death. It spread from kingdom to kingdom as each king made trade deals with Rome as a criteria of continuing trade with Rome, and forced on entire populations on pain of death.
The Catholic bible was created throughout the 6th to 10th centuries CE, and All protestant bibles are versions of the King James bible. The NT was completed in 1611 by 8 members of the Church of England.
There were (and still are) no original texts to translate. The oldest manuscripts we have were written down hundreds of years after the last apostle died. There are over 8’000 of these old manuscripts, with no two alike.
The King James translators used none of these in any case. Instead, they edited previous translations to create a version their king and parliament would approve.
So, 21st Century Christians believe the “word of god” is a book edited in the 17th century from 16th century late Latin Catholic translations of 8,000 contradictory copies of 4th century Greek scrolls that Catholicism claims to be copies of lost letters written in the 1st century in Hebrew and Aramaic.
That is not faith, that is insanity.
So what IS YOUR FAITH
If none of the above why do you spend so much time commenting
I don’t have faith, I have facts. You don’t have faith either, what you have is denial of the facts.
“… why do you spend so much time commenting”
Because there are good people and there are bad people, but it takes lying arsed organised religion to turn a good person into a mass murdering, torturing, lying, thieving, psychopath. They have no problem getting together when organising fun family and community activities like beating elderly people senseless and burning them alive accused of witchcraft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5P0KCxl9o8
She’s just bog standard post Jewish ranting about Christian sinners same as most on here.
This post was written by a TROLL that subscribes to Christian Identity. It is not true Christianity but is exactly what the KKK subscribes to. The TROLL that posted this is completely demonic. Like the KKK, they hide behind Jesus to promote hate and lies in order to attempt to brainwash ignorant people. What’s really sick is some TROLLS like this are being paid to spread hate and lies. Here is a video our friends made that exposes TROLLS like this. In fact I would not be surprised one bit if it is this troll, this video is about. https://vimeo.com/90492102
The article here is factual
You just don’t like the truth
But the truth is out there and many are realizing it!!
Nothing here represents hatred! We are proud to be followers of Christ and will stand for Him regardless
We don’t promote hatred.
God does indeed hate the false teachers and the damage they do to the minds of the gullible
You represent the true trolls, demonstrated by your hatred!!
This is a perversion of truth to present a lie
