This article is not intended to be an exhaustive exposition on antisemitism, nor does it attempt to cover every nuance or detail. Rather, this is a heartfelt call to awareness and discernment. The goal is to shine a light on a spiritual and societal darkness that has endured through millennia: the deep-rooted hatred for the Jewish people. My prayer is that as you read, you would do so with wisdom and humility. Seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit as you process these truths. And if you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, I urge you to take this moment to consider the Gospel and the eternal hope found only in Him.

The Biblical Roots of a Spiritual Hatred

The Bible reveals that the animosity toward the Jewish people is not merely a result of human prejudice—it is a byproduct of spiritual warfare. The Jewish people are at the center of God’s redemptive plan, and because of this, they have also been at the center of Satan’s fury.

From the very beginning, God chose Abraham and established a covenant with him:

“I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (Genesis 12:3).

This was not just a blessing for Abraham personally, but a divine promise concerning his descendants—Israel. The Messiah, Jesus Christ, would come through this chosen line. Therefore, the Jewish people are the earthly vessel through which God brought salvation to the world. Satan has always sought to disrupt that plan.

We see this clearly illustrated in Revelation 12, where Israel is symbolized as a woman in labor, and the dragon—Satan—stands ready to devour her child. The passage reveals that after the child (Messiah) is caught up to heaven, the dragon turns his rage against the woman and the rest of her offspring. This is not poetic metaphor—it is a spiritual reality that has played out across centuries.

Pharaoh attempted to exterminate Jewish males in Egypt (Exodus 1), Haman tried to annihilate all Jews in Persia (Esther 3), and Herod ordered the murder of Jewish infants in Bethlehem (Matthew 2). These were not random acts of tyranny—they were satanically inspired attempts to sever God’s redemptive thread.

This ancient hatred continues today. It is a hatred stirred by demonic influence. The enemy knows that Israel still has a role to play in end-time prophecy (see Romans 11, Zechariah 12–14, Matthew 24), and he will stop at nothing to incite nations and individuals against them.

A Historical Trail of Blood and Exile

Antisemitism is not confined to biblical times. It is woven into the very fabric of human history. Few peoples have endured such sustained persecution, dispersion, and genocide across so many cultures and centuries.

The Jewish people were exiled from their land after the destruction of the First Temple in 586 B.C. by Babylon, and again in A.D. 70 when the Romans razed the Second Temple and scattered them throughout the empire.

As the Christian Church grew in influence during the early centuries A.D., antisemitism took on religious tones. Some early Church fathers wrongly accused the Jews of “deicide”—the killing of God—and laid the blame for Jesus’ crucifixion solely at their feet. This heretical teaching fed the fires of animosity in medieval Europe.

In 1096, as part of the First Crusade, thousands of Jews were slaughtered in the Rhineland massacres. During the Black Plague in the 1300s, Jews were falsely accused of poisoning wells and were burned alive by the thousands. They were expelled from England in 1290, France in 1306, and Spain in 1492. Often, their property was seized and their lives destroyed.

Martin Luther, though a reformer in many respects, published a treatise later in life titled On the Jews and Their Lies, which called for the burning of synagogues and homes. His writings would be quoted centuries later by the Nazis as justification for their policies.

Then came the Holocaust—the industrialized murder of six million Jews under Hitler’s regime. It remains one of the darkest chapters in human history, and a chilling reminder of how far unchecked hatred can go.

Despite this, God has preserved His people. The rebirth of Israel in 1948, after nearly 2,000 years of exile, is a prophetic miracle. Yet hatred for the Jewish people has not diminished—it has simply evolved.

The Modern Face of an Ancient Evil

In today’s world, antisemitism often masquerades as political critique, cultural commentary, or comedic expression. But underneath the mask, the venom remains.

According to recent studies by the Anti-Defamation League (yes, I know), antisemitic incidents—ranging from vandalism to violent assault—have sharply increased across the globe. In the U.S. alone, there has been a year-over-year rise in antisemitic acts, including synagogue shootings, campus harassment, and online hate.

This hatred is no longer isolated to neo-Nazi groups or fringe extremists. It is surfacing in mainstream entertainment, music, and politics.

Take Kanye West (Ye) for example. His 2022 statements about going “death con 3 on Jewish people” were not only shocking but disturbingly well-received in some online circles. He repeated tired tropes about Jewish control over media and money—conspiracies that have historically fueled violence.

Candace Owens, a prominent conservative commentator, defended West’s remarks as expressions of frustration. Owens, who was let go from The Daily Wire over anti-Jewish rhetoric, had called the torturous “experiments” on Jewish and other prisoners by Dr. Josef Mengele during World War II and the Holocaust “bizarre propaganda.”

Tucker Carlson, while not openly antisemitic, has platformed voices and views that feed radical sentiments long associated with antisemitic ideologies. Even subtle repetition of “globalist” language—when left undefined—can reinforce conspiracy theories tied to Jewish people in the minds of those already predisposed to such beliefs.

We must be wise to the power of suggestion. Hatred is not always shouted—it is often whispered. And when those whispers are broadcast through podcasts, television, and social media to millions of ears, the impact is devastating.

The Media’s Role in Shaping Young Minds

Today’s youth are exposed to a torrent of information, opinions, and ideologies with little discernment to separate truth from propaganda. The entertainment industry—once a place of storytelling and inspiration—now often reinforces stereotypes, bigotry, and confusion.

Shows like South Park and Family Guy have made jokes at the expense of Jewish characters for years. Eric Cartman, for example, routinely mocks Kyle for being Jewish, using slurs and reinforcing the stereotype that Jews are greedy, manipulative, or weak. While producers claim this is satire, the damage is done—especially to children who cannot yet understand the irony or challenge it.

Social media platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram are even more influential. Viral videos often contain “edgy humor” that minimizes or denies the Holocaust, trivializes Jewish suffering, or repackages old conspiracies for a new generation.

Antisemitic hashtags trend regularly. Algorithms feed users a steady diet of content based on what they’ve previously viewed, making it easy for someone who watches a conspiracy video to be fed more and more extremist material.

Even educational institutions are complicit. Many universities today host events that cross the line from legitimate critique of Israel’s policies into outright antisemitism. Jewish students have been banned from progressive spaces, shouted down during pro-Israel events, and labeled as oppressors simply because of their heritage.

When such behavior is tolerated—or even celebrated—in academic and cultural spaces, it sends a dangerous message: antisemitism is no longer taboo.

Drawing the Line

In recent years, antisemitism has often taken the form of extreme anti-Zionism. Critics of Israel claim that they are merely opposing the policies of the Israeli government. And in a healthy democracy, critique is fair and necessary.

But many of these voices do more than critique—they seek to delegitimize Israel’s very existence. They compare Israel to apartheid regimes, call for its destruction, and glorify acts of terror against its citizens. That is not political debate—that is antisemitism.

The Bible is clear: God gave the land of Israel to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Though they were scattered for centuries, God promised to regather them in the last days:

“I will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers” (Jeremiah 16:15). “I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up” (Amos 9:15).

Israel is not a colonial invention—it is a prophetic fulfillment. And Satan hates every inch of it.

Zechariah 12:3 says:

“And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples… though all nations of the earth are gathered against it.”

That day is fast approaching. And so is the climax of global antisemitism.

Why the Church Must Care

As Christians, our faith is inextricably tied to the Jewish people. Jesus was Jewish. The apostles were Jewish. The Bible we cherish—from Genesis to Revelation—was written by Jewish hands under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

To harbor hatred or even indifference toward the Jewish people is to forget our roots. Romans 11 warns Gentile believers not to become arrogant. We were grafted into the olive tree of Israel, not the other way around. God is not finished with His people. Paul writes:

“Has God cast away His people? Certainly not!… For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable”  (Romans 11:1, 29).

Yet too often, the Church has fallen into replacement theology—the false belief that the Church has replaced Israel in God’s plan. This has fueled centuries of persecution and must be repented of.

We must stand with the Jewish people—not just politically but theologically. Not because they are perfect, but because God’s covenant with them is still active. We must also pray for their salvation. Paul’s heart cry was that his fellow Jews would be saved (Romans 10:1). That must be ours as well.

What Can We Do? A Call to Action

In a world drowning in darkness, the Church must be a beacon of truth and love. Here’s how you can respond:

1. Pray for Israel and the Jewish People

Ask God to protect His people, to bring peace to Jerusalem, and to open the eyes of many to their Messiah. Pray also for Jewish believers in Jesus, who often face opposition from both Jewish and Christian communities.

2. Confront Antisemitism Where You See It

Don’t be silent when you hear Jewish slurs, jokes, or conspiracies. Speak up with truth and grace. Help others see the spiritual reality behind the hatred.

3. Educate Your Family and Church

Teach your children about the Jewish roots of their faith. Preach about Israel’s prophetic role. Host events or small groups that address antisemitism biblically.

5. Examine Your Own Heart

Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any prejudices or assumptions you’ve inherited. Let the Lord purify your mind so you can walk in truth and love.

Are You Singing Louder?

Perhaps the most chilling illustration of Christian silence during the Holocaust comes from Nazi Germany itself.

A small country church stood near railroad tracks used to transport Jews to concentration camps. Every Sunday morning, as the congregation gathered to worship, they would hear the rumble of trains—followed by desperate cries for help.

The people in the boxcars were screaming. Children wept. Mothers cried out. They knew they were being sent to their deaths.

What did the church do?

They sang louder.

As the train approached, the pastor motioned to the organist. The choir raised their voices. The congregation belted out hymns—not in protest, not in prayer—but in an attempt to drown out the sound of human suffering.

They sang to silence their own consciences.

Are we doing the same today?

As antisemitism rises and Israel cries out, are we singing louder in our churches so we don’t have to engage? Are we turning up the volume on our worship while turning down the volume on God’s Word?

Silence is not neutrality. It is surrender. Indifference is not peacekeeping. It is compromise.

“Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, ‘Surely we did not know this,’ does not He who weighs the hearts consider it?” (Proverbs 24:11-12).

Let it not be said of us that we stood by. Let it be said that when the trains passed, we wept, we prayed, and we shouted to the heavens for deliverance.

Final Word

The hatred for the Jewish people is not new—but neither is God’s faithfulness. He has preserved them through Pharaohs, Hamans, Hitlers, and Ayatollahs. And He will fulfill every promise He made to them.

Jesus is coming back—to Jerusalem, not Washington. And until He returns, may the Church not be found singing louder to drown out suffering—but crying louder for mercy, truth, and justice.

Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus.

Stay Awake! Keep Watch!

Prophecy Recon | Bible Prophecy & Current Events

There is only one Abrahamic faith.

Claiming that Judaism and Islam are ‘Abrahamic religions’ is false.  Building a peace movement on a lie is doomed to failure.

The Gospel is central to any ‘Abrahamic religion,’ and both Judaism and Islam are enemies of the Gospel.

No other religion, whether Islam or Judaism, recognizes the incredible importance of the testing of Abraham in the region of Moriah.  That is the place where Abraham gathered the wood upon which his son, his only son, would be laid as a sacrifice to the Lord.

Say, isn’t a cross made of wood?

When Isaac asked his father about the ‘lamb’ for the sacrifice, Abraham informed his son that God would provide the ‘lamb’ for the altar.  Instead, God provided a ram for Abraham to sacrifice.

The sacrifice of the ‘lamb’ of God would be provided later.

The Bible is silent regarding whether Isaac was concerned about Abraham’s behavior as he was securing him to the ‘wood’ as the sacrifice.  We can assume that Isaac trusted in his father, even if it meant his death.

As Abraham was about to sacrifice his son, the Angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven to not lay a hand on the boy.  He had proved his faith in the Lord because he did not withhold his beloved son, his only son, from being sacrificed on the altar.

This story sounds familiar.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

Genesis records:

“And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven and said, ‘By myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his enemies, and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice’” (Genesis 22:15-18).

Due to his willingness to sacrifice his son, God reiterated his promise to make Abraham a great nation.  When God said, “I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you,” he meant Abraham and his offspring.

Unfortunately, the Jews and the nation of Israel, the offspring of Abraham, stumbled over the stumbling stone, which is Christ, and pursued righteousness through the law rather than by faith.  They lost their position as the true congregation of God and were temporarily replaced by the church.

The Apostle Paul stated that God has partially hardened the hearts of the Jews and the nation of Israel until the full number of Gentiles come to faith.  The most glaring example of this judgment is the fact that the Jewish people still refuse to acknowledge the Gospel as revealed in the life of Abraham.

Only those who have hardened their hearts against the Lord will fail to see this connection.

After the rapture of God’s people, God will once again turn his attention to the nation of Israel to fulfill his promises to them.  An overview of these promises can be found in Daniel 9:24.

It is because of these pending promises that God’s people, who call themselves Christians, are called to bless the Jews, the nation of Israel, and pray for the peace of Jerusalem.  As Jesus reminded his people, “Salvation is of the Jews….”

Both Islam and Judaism deny that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.  Both groups are currently in complete rebellion against God.  The Apostle John asks his readers, “Who is the liar?”  He then answers himself by pointing to the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ.  Such a man is the antichrist because he denies the Father and the Son (I John 2:22).

The Apostle John places those who follow Judaism and those who follow Islam in the same category.  They are liars who have brought judgment down upon themselves.

The religious Jews who reject Christ are of the Synagogue of Satan.  The truth of Christ’s sacrifice for our sins, otherwise known as the Gospel, is staring them in the face, but they refuse to acknowledge it.  Only one whose heart has been hardened by the Lord could fail to see that Abraham stands as ‘type and shadow’ of God and his only Son.

The whole world seems to be suffering from this same spiritual blindness.

The Apostle John records that Jesus said, “I have come in my Father’s name, and you [the Jews] do not accept me; but if someone comes in his own name, you will accept him” (John 5:43).

When the Antichrist comes, he will come in his own name.

The Apostle Matthew records that John the Baptist said at the beginning of his ministry, “And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’  I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham” (Matthew 3:9).

As it turns out, the Gentiles, through faith in Christ for the forgiveness of sins, became the stones that God raised up as children for Abraham.

“Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.  Paul writes to the Galatians, “Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: ‘All nations will be blessed through you’” (Galatians 3:7-8).

Being a biological descendant does not make you a child of Abraham in the eyes of God.  God did not consider Ishmael a child of Abraham because he was not a child of the promise.

This brings us to the Abraham Accords and the faulty notions that they are built upon.  If we look at the ‘Abraham Accords Declaration,’ it is easy to see the spiritual deception and delusional thinking that is contained within it.

This document reads (verses are shown here in italics):

“We, the undersigned, recognize the importance of maintaining and strengthening peace in the Middle East and around the world based on mutual understanding and coexistence, as well as respect for human dignity and freedom, including religious freedom.”

The Apostle Paul prophesied that prior to the rapture (I Thessalonians 4:13-18), the Day of the Lord will begin when people are saying, “Peace and safety” (I Thessalonians 5:3).  After this false declaration, seven years of destruction will come on the world suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

The idea of establishing a peace based on “mutual understanding and coexistence” between Jews and Muslims is laughable.  Muhammad, the only prophet and witness to Allah, made it very clear that his followers were to kill the Jews whenever they had the power to do so.  And any Gentile who rejects the pagan notions of Muhammad is subject to death or slavery.

The world witnessed what the Muslims think of human dignity and freedom on October 7, 2023.

“We encourage efforts to promote interfaith and intercultural dialogue to advance a culture of peace among the three Abrahamic religions and all humanity.”

Well, we Christians cannot participate in this fiasco.  Most of us have enough common sense not to engage in “interfaith and intercultural dialogue” with people who have been instructed to kill or enslave us by their god.

The wise Christian takes people at their word.

“We believe that the best way to address challenges is through cooperation and dialogue and that developing friendly relations among States advances the interests of lasting peace in the Middle East and around the world.”

They apparently also believe in unicorns and rainbows with a pot of gold at the end.  This is fanciful nonsense.

Jesus is the prince of peace.  Unfortunately, two of the primary players in this tableau reject him.

And if Roman Catholics are the ‘Christians’ that are being referred to, then there are no Abrahamic religions being represented in these accords.

“We seek tolerance and respect for every person in order to make this world a place where all can enjoy a life of dignity and hope, no matter their race, faith or ethnicity.”

I think I once heard a beauty contestant say the exact same thing.

“We support science, art, medicine, and commerce to inspire humankind, maximize human potential, and bring nations closer together.”

The problem is that your science claims there is no God, your art is atrocious, the C-19 hysteria revealed your lack of understanding of medicine, and your commerce will one day be contingent on our taking the mark of the beast.

This effort will minimize human potential and cause discord among the nations.

“We seek to end radicalization and conflict to provide all children a better future.”

They will eventually discover that we Christians are the “radicals,” so we will need to be excluded from this process.  The Roman Catholics should fit in nicely, though.

These people would have to clamp down on child sex trafficking going on all over the world, which is currently being ignored, if they were serious about wanting all children to have a better future.

“We pursue a vision of peace, security, and prosperity in the Middle East and around the world.”

Just like the false visions of the prophets of old.

“In this spirit, we warmly welcome and are encouraged by the progress already made in establishing diplomatic relations between Israel and its neighbors in the region under the principles of the Abraham Accords.  We are encouraged by the ongoing efforts to consolidate and expand such friendly relations based on shared interests and a shared commitment to a better future.”

And this is how we get to the mass invasion of Israel as described by the prophet Ezekiel (Ezekiel 38-39).  All the architects of this accord need to do is set up a false peace, and, when the players are ready to strike, war quickly ensues.

I thought that God was going to send the Great Delusion around mid-tribulation, but neuroticism seems to be growing exponentially.  The thinking of the writers of this document has become futile, and their foolish hearts are darkened.

When we Christians point out the folly of this nonsense, our warm welcome will be retracted.  We will be labeled as ‘unloving’ and ‘warmongers’ who are hypocrites who have abdicated our role as ‘peacemakers.’

In the warped minds of the evil Globalists, we are the ‘radicals.’

This is a worldly endeavor, and we Christians are not of this world.  However, we can use these misguided efforts to share the Gospel and ensure that God’s people do not fall into delusional thinking.

In the meantime, it looks like President Trump is going to be instrumental in getting this false peace off the ground.  That may be the reason God spared him.

No sense in blaming him, though.  Someone had to ensure that the Ezekiel invasion happened at the appointed time.
