Replacement Theology: A LIE From the Pit of Hell :: By Geri Ungurean

 

This article was originally written in 2016. I felt the urging of the Holy Spirit to re-publish it.

Original article

Most of us have heard of the false teaching called Replacement Theology. This article is for those who either have never heard of it or have had this preached to them Sunday after Sunday and just figured that it was biblical.

I’m here to tell you – It’s a lie from the pit of hell.

Replacement Theology (RT) has been around for centuries. The term used by theologians is supersessionism. The church supersedes Israel. Theologians have cited the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD as proof that God was finished with the Jewish people.

There are two main schools of thought regarding RT:

Israel’s role as God’s Chosen was completed once Jesus came to earth (economic supersessionism).

Because of her disobedience, Israel forfeited her role as Chosen of God because of her rejection of Jesus as Messiah (punitive supersessionism).

Punitive supersessionism was clearly articulated by Martin Luther in his sermon: “On the Jews and Their Lies.”

For such ruthless wrath of God is sufficient evidence that they [i.e., the Jewish people] assuredly have erred and gone astray. Even a child can comprehend this. For one dare not regard God as so cruel that he would punish his own people so long, so terrible, so unmercifully … Therefore this work of wrath is proof that the Jews, surely rejected by God, are no longer his people, and neither is he any longer their God. (“On the Jews and Their Lies,” Trans. Martin H. Bertram, in Luther’s Works [Philadelphia: Fortress Press, 1971], p. 265).

How could a man used of God as was Martin Luther come to such a conclusion about the Jews? It is written that later in his life, Luther was convinced that he was called of God to save the Jews. When his efforts failed, he became enraged. In one night, in response to his anti-Semitic sermon, synagogues were burned to the ground, and over 2,000 Jews were slaughtered. Martin Luther was used by God in a mighty way in the Great Reformation, but alas, he was merely a man. His teachings about Jews had a dramatic impact on the church in Germany for many years to come. Hitler was a great fan of Luther. He carried the sermon: “On the Jews and Their Lies” to every SS meeting.

RT is closely related to Reformed or Covenant Theology, which is associated with John Calvin. If you’ve noticed that your pastor does not speak or teach on eschatology (the study of End Times), it’s most likely that the leadership of your church adheres to amillennialism – a view of eschatology that views End Times prophecy as “spiritual” instead of literal. It’s a convenient way of avoiding the promises made to Israel in the Word. Since the proponents of RT believe that the church inherited the promises made to Israel, there is no need to teach that End Times prophecy is literal. The prophecies are viewed more as allegorical.

It has always amazed me that churches who teach RT completely ignore some critically important words by the apostle Paul in Romans 11. I would HIGHLY recommend that you read all of Romans 11 (9 and 10 as well), but Romans 11 truly expresses why the Jews did not receive their Savior, and clearly shows that God is not done with His Chosen people.

I would love to print all of Romans 11, but I am placing what I consider to be the heart of this chapter:

“For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: ‘The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; for this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.’

“Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all” (Romans 11:25-32).

How could this be any clearer? God ordained that blindness in part would happen to Israel until all of the Gentiles who were to be saved would come into His Kingdom. It also states the gifts of and the calling of God are irrevocable.

God’s plan from the beginning was to offer salvation to the entire world. He used the Jewish people to bring His law to show His Holiness, and then through their lineage, He would ultimately bring His Son to pay for all sin. What a merciful and loving God we serve!

Satan is determined to lie and deceive mankind. He uses just a little bit of truth (Scripture) and then twists it for his purposes. He knows the Word better than any one of us. His motivation for memorizing God’s Word is to seek and destroy God’s people. He started in the Garden of Eden with Eve. He tried it against Jesus in the wilderness. Jesus always fought him (and shut him down) with pure Scripture.

God made a Covenant with Israel. I’ve read articles by Bible teachers who claim that Israel relinquished the promises made by God because of their rebellion. God cannot lie. He made the promises. It has nothing to do with how good or bad Israel is. It has everything to do with God and His faithfulness.

As a student in the synagogue I attended when I was a child, the history of my people saddened me. I learned of the persecution by the Catholic Church. I learned that no matter where we went, ultimately, we were placed in ghettos with locked gates. We were HATED. I would ponder in my mind why—what did we do to warrant such hatred and oppression? It wasn’t until I was born-again that I realized why. It was Satan all along. He placed hatred in the hearts of men and women for the Jews.

But I never thought that it would be this extreme. I’m shocked as I read the news and see the world flying the swastika flag all across the globe. It literally makes me sick. But I know that all things must happen according to His plan. It took the extermination of 6 million of my people to bring about the establishment of the Jewish State of Israel in 1948 – a prophecy that many proponents of RT did not expect.

Israel is Israel. The church is the church. In the Old Testament, Israel was under the Law. Jesus brought us the Covenant of Grace. We are FREE in Him.

“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:17).

“Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:8-11).

Jesus was sent to earth for one reason—to die. It was His precious blood that cleansed the repentant sinner and made him/her righteous in the eyes of the Father. Every Jew needs to come to the Father through Jesus Christ. There is no special arrangement between the Jewish people and God.

So, if you are in a church that believes that God has cast away His people—the Jews, please understand that what is being taught is not truth. Have you noticed that most of the RT denominations are vehemently anti-Israel? Are you starting to see that Satan’s plan to destroy God’s children has worked in most of the mainline churches? Here is a list of churches that believe the RT lie:

  • The Roman Catholic Church. (This is NOT part of Christianity)
  • (Some) Southern Baptist Convention – (depends on leadership).
  • The United Methodist Church.
  • Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
  • National Baptist Convention of America, Inc.
  • Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
  • The Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod.
  • African Methodist Episcopal Church.
  • The Episcopal Church.
  • Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.
  • African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church.
  • United Church of Christ.
  • Christian Churches and Churches of Christ, Joplin, Mo.
  • Emergent Churches
  • Vineyard Churches
  • Third Wave Churches

**I am certain there are many more. Anti-Semitism and hatred for Israel are at an all-time high.

Please understand that in each of these denominations, it is possible to have a pastor who is a true shepherd under the Great Shepherd Jesus. But these denominations are known to adhere to the RT lie.

These churches have declared their hatred for Israel and are supporting Hamas. This is exactly what the devil wants to happen. But our Lord, being omniscient, is using all of this to fulfill His prophetic Word concerning Israel.

“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it” (Zechariah 12:3).

From Arutz Sheva from Israel:

“These very liberal churches include Presbyterians, Methodists, Episcopalians, Lutherans, and the United Church of Christ. They presently number about 16 million. Their membership and influence in the United States continue to decline. These churches’ rhetoric is usually outdone by an even harsher one of a small group of so-called ‘peace churches,’ including the Mennonites and Quakers.

“Mainline churches claim many members from Congress. They represent America’s heartland and have adopted a range of resolutions hostile to Israel. They include calls for boycotts plus divestment and sanctions (BDS). Some are aimed at Israel; others focus on the ‘settlements.’ Several churches supported the hateful Kairos Palestine Document published in 2009 by some Palestinian Christians. There is also tourism to Israel under Palestinian auspices.

“BDS started with the passage of a resolution in 2004 at the Presbyterian Church (USA) calling for selective divestment of shares of American companies doing business in Israel. Long before that, the World Council of Churches (WCC), founded in 1948, aligned itself with ‘third world’ countries and thinking. This is an international umbrella group of mainline churches which claims denominational membership of 590 million people. It has frequently condemned Israel yet never protested attempts by Israel’s neighbors and by terrorists to erase it from the map.

“Several of these churches also publish extremely anti-Israel educational materials. These are often the only ones members will view. The Methodists produced a study guide a few years ago authored by an apostate Jewish pastor. He admitted to hating Judaism. It featured illustrations of Israeli soldiers reminiscent of Nazi guards at a concentration camp.

“Theology is playing an increasing role in mainline churches’ anti-Israel activity. It began with the Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center and its head, Dr. Naim Ateek. Many liberal churches have partnered with Sabeel. Ateek used crucifixion imagery in his Easter message of 2001: ‘It seems to many of us that Jesus is on the cross again with thousands of crucified Palestinians around him.’

“This reintroduces the ancient murderous Christian charge of deicide against the Jews. Ateek and others deny that the Bible speaks of any covenant of land with the Jews. This is a renewal of the replacement theology and supersessionism and is extremely dangerous for Jews around the world, especially at a time of rising anti-Semitism.

“Palestinian influences in anti-Israel hate-mongering is huge. They have sent teams of Palestinian Christians around the U.S for a decade, tugging at Christian heartstrings with emotional tales of woe. They are more effective than Palestinian Muslims, who don’t come as ‘brothers.’

“Still, there are surprises. In 2012, several denominations substituted positive investment resolutions in place of divestment. In some cases, votes that looked like they were heading in the anti-Israel direction were saved by impassioned speeches by pastors who spoke about the impact such a resolution would have on Jewish-Christian friendships and partnerships in their churches.

“The actions of these mainline churches have poisoned the well of Christian-Jewish dialogue. Jews entered the dialogue, which has been fruitful at times, on the basis of assurances that Christian partners left contempt for Jews and Judaism behind, and had made serious attempts to understand what was important to Jews. The way in which these churches treat Israel shows that neither is true.” – source

I ask you this: Even if you have been in one church for years, if they are teaching a lie, would it not be the right thing to do to leave and attempt to find a gathering of brothers and sisters in Christ who believe the whole Word of God?

“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” (Genesis 12:3).

And a word to those seeking a place to worship:

ASK QUESTIONS!

You have a right to know how leadership feels about very important issues – whether they believe the whole Word of God or choose to add or take away from God’s Holy Word.

Shalom B’Yeshua

PM Viktor Orbán of Hungary: Modern-Day Hero :: By Geri Ungurean

 

He stood against the forced migration of Muslims into his country. PM Orban has always known the agenda of the U.N. and George Soros. With their “Open Borders” philosophy, they can wipe out any semblance of culture and Christian beliefs in a country. He has stood against this and spoken about it, and he inspires me.

From Breitbart.com

During his speech opening parliament, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán slammed the West for engaging in mass migration policies, claiming western countries were experimenting with a “great replacement.”

Prime Minister Orbán was sworn in as Hungarian government leader for the fifth time this week and spoke out about various topics in his speech to the parliament, including commenting on the mass migration policies of Western Europe.

According to Orbán, the West is engaging in a “suicidal wave” and stated that western countries were “experimenting with the programme of great replacement,” referring to the theory of population exchange and demographic shifts coined by French writer Renaud Camus, newspaper Le Figaro reports.

According to Orbán, the programme of replacement “wants to replace endangered Christian children with migrants from other civilizations,” and stated he saw gender ideology in the same manner, referring to it as “madness.”

“And there are others who sense the problem of declining demographics, and they want migration. They believe alien peoples from distant lands should be moved in and that will stop the demographic decline. But mass migration… the millions of people who have been lured here, are basically a global plan of moving in the new proletariat,” he said.

The theory of the “Great Replacement” or Grand Remplacement in French, has been gaining traction in France in recent years and was often invoked by former presidential candidate Eric Zemmour during the first round of the presidential race this year.

A poll from November of last year revealed that half of the French public believes in the Great Replacement, the theory that mass migration and demographic changes are being orchestrated by elites who view human beings as replaceable units in what Camus describes as “undifferentiated human matter.”

“The change of people and civilization for the sake of the industry of man, the economic system which produces the Undifferentiated Human Matter, the human Nutella, spreadable at will,” Camus told Breitbart London in November of 2018. Twitter Breitbart <click here – Viktor Orbán of Hungary Makes EPIC Speech on Patriotism and Surge of Migrants into Europe (originally written in 2019)

This man is a hero. He speaks for every freedom-loving person on this planet. He is PM Orbán of Hungary. He knows what it is like to be overtaken, and he also knows freedom. I have documented his words in English for the convenience of the reader. I have also added my own commentary with his words.

Please send this to as many people as you can. The world needs to know that this mass forced migration of these so-called refugees is not grounded in humanitarianism. It is part of the ultimate plan of the U.N. to knock down all borders, to get the world ready for the NWO!

PM Orbán making epic speech <click to watch

Manuscript of speech with my commentary bolded (remember that this article is from 2019):

“The destiny of the Hungarians has become intertwined with that of Europe’s nations and has grown to be so much a part of the union that, today, not a single people – including the Hungarian people – can be free if Europe is not free. And today, Europe is as fragile and sickly as “A flower being eaten away by a hidden worm.”

And the destiny of the American people has become intertwined with the wishes of the Globalists of the U.N. to destabilize the nations of the world.

Today, after 168 years since the great wars of independence of the European peoples, Europe, our common home, is not free! Ladies and gentlemen, Europe is not free, because freedom begins with speaking the truth. Today in Europe, it is forbidden to speak the truth. Even if it is made of silk, a muzzle is a muzzle.

And in America, the leftists rioted in the streets, calling President Trump “Hitler” because he wanted to keep Americans safe from possible harm from migrants who are not yet vetted.

It is forbidden to say that those arriving are not refugees but that Europe is threatened by migration. It is forbidden to say that the tens of millions are set out in our direction. It is forbidden to say that immigration brings crime and terror to our countries.

Those who stood with our President Trump to halt migration from seven countries where terrorism is out of control – those people were disparaged and beaten.

It is forbidden to point out that the masses arriving from other civilizations endanger our way of life, our culture, and our Christian traditions. It is forbidden to point out that those who have arrived earlier have already built up their own new separate world for themselves, with its own laws and ideals, which is forcing apart the thousand-year-old structure of Europe.

Many Muslim migrants do NOT wish to assimilate into our society. Rather, they wish to bring their lifestyle here, and they want Sharia law to replace our Constitution.

It is forbidden to point out that this is not an accidental and unintentional chain of consequences but a pre-planned and orchestrated operation; a mass of people directed toward us. It is forbidden to say that in Brussels they are concocting schemes to transport foreigners here as quickly as possible and to settle them here among us. It is forbidden to point out that the purpose of settling people here is to reshape the religious and cultural landscape of Europe, and to reengineer its ethnic foundations — thereby eliminating the last barrier to internationalism: the nation-states.

These migrants are being sent to Europe and to America as a big step toward destabilizing our nations – the ultimate goal – open borders.

It is forbidden to say that Brussels is not stealthily devouring more and more slices of our national sovereignty and that in Brussels many are now making a plan for the United States of Europe, for which no one has ever given authorization.

Ladies and gentleman, today’s enemies of freedom are cut from a different cloth than the royal and imperial rulers of old, or those who ran the Soviet System; they used a different set of tools to force us into submission. Today, they do not imprison us, they do not transport us to concentration camps, and they do not send in tanks to occupy countries loyal to freedom.

Instead of tanks and artillery – many migrants bring with them political jihad. They plan to overtake America bit by bit – creating “no go” zones. And this spreads like a cancer throughout our nation.

Today, the international media’s artillery bombardments, denunciations, threats and blackmail are enough — or rather have been enough so far. The peoples of Europe are slowly awakening; they are regrouping and will soon regain ground. Europe’s beams that rest on the suppression of truth are creaking and cracking.

The peoples of Europe may have finally understood that their future is at stake. Now, not only are their prosperity, cozy lives, and jobs at stake, but our very security and the peaceful order of their lives are menaced as well.

Americans are finally understanding that our future is at stake, and the leftwing media are fighting conservatives tooth and nail.

At last, the peoples of Europe, who have been slumbering in abundance and prosperity, have understood that the principles that Europe has been built on are in mortal danger. Europe is the community of Christian, free and independent nations; equality of men and women; fair competition and solidarity; pride and humility; justice and mercy.

The people of America are in mortal danger. Our President Trump tried to halt the migration of people from countries of extreme terrorism, until there is a better way to vet migrants.

This time the danger is not attacking us the way that wars and natural disasters do, suddenly pulling the rug from under our feet. Mass migration is a slow stream of water persistently eroding the shores. It is masquerading as a humanitarian cause, but its true nature is occupation of territory. And what is gaining territory for them is losing territory for us.

Yes, it IS masquerading as a humanitarian cause, but it’s true nature is nefarious. And this begs the question as to WHY countries such as Saudi Arabia and other Arabic nations refuse to have these people migrate to their countries! Their cultures are similar, and they speak the same language.

Flocks of obsessed human rights defenders feel the overwhelming urge to reprimand us and to make allegations against us. Allegedly, we are hostile xenophobes. But the truth is that the history of our nation is one of inclusion and the history of the intertwining of cultures. Those who have sought to come here as new family members, as allies, or as displaced persons, fearing for their lives, have been let in to make a new home for themselves.

In America, left-wing radicals disparaged us and our President Trump – saying that we have no mercy. President Trump was trying to keep us safe!

But those who have come here with the intention of changing our country, shaping our nation in their own image, those who have come with violence and against our will — have always been met with resistance.

Ladies and gentlemen, at first they talk about only a few hundred, a thousand or two thousand relocated people, but not a single responsible European leader would dare to swear under oath that this couple of thousands will not eventually increase to tens or hundreds of thousands.

If we want to halt this mass migration, first we must curb Brussels. The main danger to Europe’s future does not come from those who want to come here but from Brussels’ fanatical internationalism. We should not allow Brussels to place itself above the law. We shall not allow it to force upon us the bitter fruit of its cosmopolitan immigration policy.

Globalists are responsible for the unrest and rioting in America. And one name stands out more than any other. That name is George Soros. He funds and orchestrates all protests that benefit and further globalism.

We shall not import to Hungary crime, terrorism, and synagogue burning Anti-Semitism. There shall be no urban districts beyond the reach of the law. There shall be no mass disorder, no immigrant riots here, and there shall be no gangs hunting down our women and daughters.

DITTO.

We shall not allow others to tell us whom we can let into our home and country, whom we will live alongside, and with whom we will share our country. We know how these things go: first, we allow them to tell whom we must take in, then they force us to serve foreigners in our own country. In the end, we find ourselves being told to pack up and leave our own land.

Therefore, we reject the forced resettlement scheme, and we shall tolerate neither blackmail nor threats. The time has come to ring the warning bell. The time has come for opposition and resistance. The time has come to gather allies to us. The time has come to raise the flag of proud nations.

We ARE ringing the warning bell, but the mainstream media and leftwing liberals are being paid by George Soros to continue to cause unrest and violence.

The time has come to prevent the destruction of Europe and to save the future of Europe. To this end, regardless of party affiliation, we call on every citizen of Hungary to unite; and we call on every European nation to unite. The leaders and citizens of Europe must no longer live in two separate worlds. We must restore the unity of Europe. We, the peoples of Europe, cannot be free individually if we are not free together.

And we in America will lose our liberties, and our Constitution will ultimately be made null and void.

If we unite our forces, we can succeed; if we pull in different directions, we shall fail. Together we are strength; disunited we are weakness. Either together or not at all — today, this is the law.

Hungarians, in 1848 it was written in the book of fate that nothing could be done against the Habsburg Empire. If we had resigned ourselves to that outcome, our fate would have been sealed, and the German sea would have swallowed up the Hungarians.

In 1956 it was written in the book of fate that we were to remain an occupied and Sovietized country until patriotism was extinguished in the very last Hungarian. If then we had resigned ourselves to that outcome, our fate would have been sealed, and the Soviet sea would have swallowed up the Hungarians.

The U.N. wishes to extinguish “Patriotism” in every county. Patriotism stands in the way of “Globalism.”

Today it is written in the book of fate that hidden, faceless world powers will eliminate everything that is unique, autonomous, age-old and national. They will blend cultures, religions and populations until our many-faceted and proud Europe will finally become bloodless and docile. And if we resign ourselves to this outcome, our fate will be sealed; and we will be swallowed up in the enormous belly of the United States of Europe.

The task which awaits the Hungarian people, the nations of central Europe, and the other European nations which have not yet lost all common sense is to defeat, rewrite and transform the fate intended for us. We Hungarians and Poles know how to do this. We have been taught that one can only look danger in the face if one is brave enough.

We must therefore drag the ancient virtue of courage out from under the silt of oblivion. First of all, we must put steel in our spines, and we must answer clearly with a voice loud enough to be heard far and wide the foremost and single most important question determining our fate. The question upon which the future of Europe stands or falls is this:

Shall we be slaves, or men set free? — That is the question – Answer me! Go for it, Hungary! Go for it, Hungarians!“

And I say Go for it, America! Let us have the courage to keep our Republic for the sake of our forefathers… for the sake of those who fought to keep us safe!

Let us stand for what is right!

How Can I Be Saved?

Shalom b’Yeshua
