*"Anglo-Israel Truth in Galatians"* is today's message title.
The modern day jews are not Jacob-Israel.
Note this quote from the 1980 Jewish almanac.
"A brief History of the Terms for Jew" in the 1980 Jewish Almanac is the
following: "STRICTLY SPEAKING IT IS INCORRECT TO CALL AN ANCIENT
ISRAELITE A ‘ JEW' OR TO CALL A CONTEMPORARY JEW AN ISRAELITE OR A
HEBREW." (1980 Jewish Almanac, p. 3).
It is incorrect to call contemporary jew an ancient Israelite. Today's
so-called Jews are not God's chosen people of the Holy Bible.
They are not Israel nor Hebrew.
If they are not the chosen people, then who are?
The white caucasian people, the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian,
Celtic, and Kindred people, are God's chosen people of the Bible.
Now there is a problem.
The first word "Jew" means different things in the minds of many.
The people of the Bible, like Moses, Abraham, and David are called jews
by many people, and yet the Bible never calls them Jews.
Many believe the word Gentile means non-jew or non-Israelite.
This is not the case.
Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Co., in Chapter 2 of his
monumental and almost forgotten book 'THE INTERNATIONAL JEW' states,
"There is a mission for the pulpit to liberate the Church from what the
New Testament Scriptures call 'the fear of th e Jews.' The pulpit has
also the mission of liberating the Church from the error that Judah and
Israel are synonymous. The reading of the Scriptures which confuse the
tribe of Judah with Israel, and which interpret every mention of Israel
as signifying the Jews, is at the root of more than one-half the
confusion and division traceable in Christian doctrinal statements. THE
JEWS ARE NOT THE CHOSEN PEOPLE, THOUGH PRACTICALLY THE ENTIRE CHURCH HAS
SUCCUMBED TO THE PROPAGANDA WHICH DECLARES THEM TO BE SO!"
The word Jew is not synonymous with Hebrew or Israelite.
History means His Story.
In the Old Testament, most have no understanding of the story.
They have no idea of how this thing unfolds historically.
A chart is presented that gives this understanding clarity.
There is neither jew nor gentile in the minds of the church go-ers today.
Genesis 17:1-7, Abram, and God changed his name to Abraham. God dealing
with the promise made to Abraham.
"You will be the father of a multitude of nations."
The seed of Abraham ...."I will make a multitude of nations of you."
"For an everlasting covenant."
The display chart starts with Abraham.
Jacob formed the twelve tribes of Israel.
A division took place in the history, over high taxation.
10 tribes broke off and became known as the house of Israel.
The house(nation) of Israel and the house of Judah.
Different Prophets were sent to them respectively.
Some to Israel and some to Judah.
The Messiah came through the house of Judah.
Israel became so sinful, that God divorced her.
The cast off house became the gentiles, as the nations dispersed abroad.
The new covenant described in Hebrews 8:8, "For finding fault with them,
He says, "BEHOLD, DAYS ARE COMING, SAYS THE LORD, WHEN I WILL EFFECT A
NEW COVENANT WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND WITH THE HOUSE OF JUDAH." NASV.
The Prophet Hosea, in chapters 4&5, tells the prophesy concerning the
house of Israel.
Prophets live the life God wants them to live, so they can preach from
the heart.
God sent Hosea to the unfaithful house of Israel, and he married a
harlot who was unfaithful to him.
Hosea 1:4, "And the LORD said to him, "Name him Jezreel; for yet a
little while, and I will punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of
Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel." NASV.
Hosea 1:9, "And the LORD said, "Name him Lo-ammi, for you are not My
people and I am not your God." NASV.
God divorced them, saying you are no longer My people. They became the
gentiles.
Hosea 1:10-11, "Yet the number of the sons of Israel Will be like the
sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered; And in the place
Where it is said to them, "You are not My people," It will be said to
them, "You are the sons of the living God. And the sons of Judah and the
sons of Israel will be gathered together, And they will appoint for
themselves one leader, And they will go up from the land, For great will
be the day of Jezreel." NASV.
"You are the sons of the Living God."
"Your seed is going to form a multitude of nations." God doesn't lie.
Gentile means, "You are not My people."
700 years before Christ this prophesy was given.
Hosea 1:11, "Israel will be gathered together....for great will be the
day of Jezreel."
Who did God establish a new covenant with?
"A new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah,"
Hebrews 8:8.
This is a lesson and not a sermon.
The lesson gives an overview that most Christians today do not have.
The display chart shows Abraham and his descendants.
The 12 sons of Jacob became the 12 tribes of Jacob/Israel.
10 became the house of Israel, and two the house of Judah.
Hebrews 8:8 tells us they came together.
Paul wrote to the cast-off Israel in Romans 9:23,
"Not from among jews only, but also from among gentiles."
"Also in Hosea, I will call those who are not My people...sons of the
living God."
The gentiles were cast off Israel.
God brought them back together, in keeping with His promise.
A man made up some cards, with two sides, containing questions and answers.
Matthew 15:24, Jesus had a mission when He came to the land of Judah,
"I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of israel."
The gentiles were in fact cast off Israel.
They accepted Christianity like a duck goes to water.
"THE GREATEST LOVE STORY NEVER TOLD" is a book by the preacher,
available through this ministry that tells of the love story
God has for His covenant chosen people, Israel.
You cannot understand the love of God, until you
understand the love of a man for his bride, his woman.
His law said he could never remarry her,
once he had divorced her and she took another man.
Yet He promised to take her back.
Then Paul told us when the husband dies,
then the wife is freed from the Law.
Jesus is the husband, and Israel is the bride.
"A BIBLE STORY," is another book written by the preacher dealing with
this subject.
"JUDAH'S SCEPTER AND JOSEPH'S BIRTHRIGHT," is a book that brings
understanding.
DVD "ROOTS FROM ABRAHAM TO AMERICA," with E. Raymond Capt.
The truth about telling the truth has its challenges.
The programmed mind, spellcast into believing a lie.
"Who bewitched you Galatians, before whom Christ was publicly crucified?"
Bewitched, put into a spell, and the churches are not
interested in truth, but only in church growth.
Spells are real, Deuteronomy 18:10, "There shall not be found among you
anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who
uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets
omens, or a sorcerer." NASV.
Galatians 3:1, "You foolish Galatians! Who put you under a spell? Was
not Jesus the Messiah clearly portrayed before your very eyes as having
been crucified?" ISV.
"You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus
Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?" NASV.
Spell casting ties a knot, when the mind receives two opposites,
with both being accepted as truth at the same time.
Today's so-called Jews deny that Jesus is the Son of God.
1 John 2:22, identifies the antichrists. "Who is the liar but the one
who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who
denies the Father and the Son." NASV.
When the antichrists are called God's chosen, then they're in a spell.
Getting the truth out, with prayer, dispels the spell.
Cognitive dissonance is to automatically and involuntarily reject
anything they have heard that is contrary to what they have been taught
by the so-called authorities as truth.
Galatians 3:7, "Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who
are sons of Abraham." NASV.
"Sons of Abraham." Anybody of faith is of Abraham's seed.
"Those who are of faith.....to the churches of Galatia."
Those who deny the Anglo-Israel truth,
use this verse to nullify the physical existence of Israel.
The proof that you are Israelites, according to the flesh,
is that you belong to the faith, having embraced the Christ and His Way.
1 Peter 1;1, "Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who reside as
aliens, scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and
Bithynia, who are chosen." NASV.
The chosen people cast off, who were residing in Galatia.
Proof you are the cast off, because you are in faith in Christ.
Galatians 3:7, "You see, then, that those who have faith are Abraham's
real descendants." "It is those who are of faith who are the sons of
Abraham."
The truth is those who deny physical Israel use this verse to teach a
spiritual Israel.
With this one verse, they try to deny the physical existence Israel.
It is cast off Israel, the gentiles, being redeemed, that proves they
were physical Israel.
Galatians 3:14-15, "In order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of
Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise
of the Spirit through faith. Brethren, I speak in terms of human
relations: even though it is only a man's covenant, yet when it has been
ratified, no one sets it aside or adds conditions to it." NASV.
"Kept in custody under the law....the law has become our tutor....faith
has come.....all sons of God ...baptized into Christ have clothed
yourselves with Christ."
Galatians 3:17, "What I am saying is this: the Law, which came four
hundred and thirty years later, does not invalidate a covenant
previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise."
The so-called Jews were of Judah.
Some of the Jews were Edomites, who called themselves Jews.
The referenced Greeks were all Israelites, living in Greece.
Galatians 3:27, "For all of you who were baptized into Christ
have clothed yourselves with Christ." NASV.
"For all of you who were baptized into Christ."
False definitions: jew=Israel
Greek= non-Israelite.
Galatians 3:28, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave
nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in
Christ Jesus." NASV.
Apostle Paul was writing to Israel, as the lost sheep.
Only Israel was under the Law.
Deuteronomy 33:4, "Moses charged us with a law,
A possession for the assembly of Jacob." NASV.
Jacob/Israel was given the Law through Moses.
Romans 9:4, "Who are Israelites, to whom belongs the adoption as sons,
and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the Law and the temple
service and the promises."
Who did the law belong to? The Israelites.
Psalm 147:19-20, "He declares His words to Jacob, His statutes and His
ordinances to Israel. He has not dealt thus with any nation; And as for
His ordinances, they have not known them. Praise the LORD!" NASV.
"He has not dealt thus with any nation."
Paul said, "You were under the law," making it obvious that they were
Israelites.
Not a spiritual Israel, but rather a true flesh and blood, existing people.
The church world teaches that today's jews are Israel,
yet they have never formed a multitude of nations,
nor do they possess the other promised characteristics of God's Israel
people.
They have been lied to, and they believe the antichrists are God's chosen.
The proof is archaeological, Biblical, etc.
When they are presented with this overwhelming evidence,
then cognitive dissonance sets in,
and they fall back on the "spiritual Israel" argument which takes hold.
Galatians. 4:1-5, "Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he does
not differ at all from a slave although he is owner of everything, but
he is under guardians and managers until the date set by the father. So
also we, while we were children, were held in bondage under the
elemental things of the world. But when the fullness of the time came,
God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, so that He
might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the
adoption as sons." NASV.
"God sent forth His Son....to redeem those...that we might receive the
adoption as sons."
They, the Galatians, were redeemed, bought back by the Great Redeemer,
Jesus Christ.
Only Israel can be redeemed.
Here is proof from scripture.
Luke 1:68, "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, For He has visited us and
accomplished redemption for His people."
Redeemed means to buy back.
There is a difference between being saved and being redeemed.
A man's property includes his wife. You shall not covet a man's house,
ox, nor wife,
as she is his property.
God had the plan to buy her back, Israel, with His own blood.
"I've been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb" song words.
It is a proof that you care about the other peoples, races, kinds,
because you are called to be a blessing to the whole world.
To redeem the treasure hidden in the field,
he bought the whole world to secure that treasure.
That treasure is His bride, Jacob/Israel.
Luke 24:21, "But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem
Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since these things
happened."
Israel was going to be redeemed.
The mind of the spell cast bewitched will go into super spiritual space,
and they will respond that the important thing is Jesus.
If you reject this truth, you reject Jesus Christ.
The truth becomes self-evident through prayer.
1 Samuel 12:22-23, "a people for Himself...sin by ceasing to pray for you"
He is the God of Israel, we are Israel, we need to pray for our people.
Prayer for those who are bewitched to break free from the spell and the
snare of the devil. Help them to understand that their children need to
have a nation of their own like Abraham was promised.
Change the curses into blessings, O Lord, and help us discern evil
and see the difference between the clean and the unclean.
Follow Peter's teaching in Acts 2:38, and come back
to the Lord, as a pure and clean virgin, washed whiter than snow
in the precious blood of our Savior Jesus Christ.
The prayer of Numbers 6:24-26 is presented in Jesus' name in closing the
message.
