- Racism and Christianity do not mix. I genuinely hope that those who try to support their antisemitism through quoting the Bible or claiming that it is Christian, will actually listen to this video and RESPOND to the specific Scripture verses that I brought up. If you ignore these verses then please don't pretend your views a Christian. The gospel is for all people.

As a Jewish man who believes in Yeshua, I can say this: the Jews didn’t kill Christ. The Romans didn’t kill Christ . We ALL killed Christ (because of our sin). We have all fallen short of the Glory of G-d. Praise be to Him we are forgiven.
Well said. We all did
The pharasee incited it.
But the romans carried it out.
But while all that happened many more jews and romans joined christ.
Praise the LORD, exactly right, we all sin and we all necessitated his sacrifice on the cross. I am guilty and praise Jesus that I am forgiven, by his stripes I a sinner am healed, as I was desperately sick of spirit before.

That is not his name. His name is Isous Xristos. The NT was written in Greek not Hebrew. The lingua franca in the entire Levant at that time was Greek. Why because of the Greco-Macedonian empire and its influence in the region. Look it up if you think I'm wrong.
@@chriskjo1611 With all respect, I don't really think Jesus, an ethnic Jew, was going around referring to himself to his fellow Jews in Greek. I get what you're saying, Hellenistic culture was indeed very influential, but most likely he spoke Aramaic most of the time (or at least among other Jewish people), along with Greek, the same way that a lot of people around the world speak the language of their homeland plus English. In any case I find it hard to believe that his parents named him a Greek name. For example. I live in the US and have a roommate originally from India. She and her friends all have Indian names, although they speak English along with Hindi. It would be weird if her name was Karen or or Madison or something. Names tend to have a lot more to do with culture and background than only language.
Now (and maybe this was your point!), it must be acknowledged that a lot of Jewish people at the time of Jesus did in fact have two names---one Hebrew, and one a Romanized, Greek version of the Hebrew one--but it's likely incorrect to think that among other Jewish people, Jesus would be primarily going by a Greek one, or that his parents or family thought of him as "Isous Xristos", or to say that calling him Yeshua is wrong because of the Greek name that is used in the NT. As another example, I have an old friend whose parents are from South Korea. She has a Korean name that her Korean-speaking family and friends call her, but she goes by a different, common girl name in the U.S. If I were to write a book about her (in English, to reach an international audience), and then her father called me and told me that he liked my book about his daughter, Kim Sun Hee, it would be weird if I corrected him and said, "No, her name is Gracie, you can't call her Kim Sun Hee, since I wrote the book in English, and English is very influential around the world right now."
(Also, a side note--correct me if I'm wrong, but Xristos is basically the Greek way to say "The Messiah." "Christ" is not a last name.)
In any case, people from many different places use transliterations for Jesus' name because that's how languages work, and there's nothing wrong with that. Why not let the very people from whom Jesus came call him by their own language without interjecting?
This video is incredibly appreciated as an ethnically Jewish follower of Yeshua. Following Christ has brought indescribable miracles and what I can only describe as angelic encounters into my life, and I believe that will be the case for the remnant of Israel as they realize the truth

Numbers 6:24-26
The Lord bless you and keep you:
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you:
26 The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace
I have a little bit of Jewish ancestry, but I was raised in the Christian church. Chag Pesach Semeach!
I never hated the Jewish people. Maybe I didn’t appreciate some of the thing they did, there’s videos (Hasidic Jews spitting on Nuns) but to hate them or anyone isn’t Christian.

59 years ago God saved me, a Jew, by His grace alone, through faith alone, in Messiah alone. Perhaps my worst obstacle was the treatment both I myself, and Jews in general have received (and are receiving) from people claiming to be Christians, and in the name of Christ.
God never claimed to be a jew, and the entire gospel can be read as a story combatting rabbinical lawyering and corruption. The “jews” of today are rabbinical jews, and the Talmud did not exist then. Am I wrong?
No the biggest obstacle was your jewishness which you place have as an idol. Far worse has been the treatment of Christian by Jews for centuries.
I know! This happens more than naught.
I’m sorry. I’ve been a Christians since I was very young, and I have always loved the Jewish people. After all, my Savior is Jewish! When I first ran into an antisemitic Christian, I was floored. It did not compute and still doesn’t.
Now that I know the Lord, I realize that not everyone who claims to be a Christian actually is one. Many are merely church members assuming they're Christians. But before God saved me, I didn't know that.
One example is a neighbor I had as a teenager. Whenever she'd encounter me outside, she'd fly into a rage, calling me every antisemitic cuss word she'd ever heard.
Call me crazy, but I distinctly remember reading that Jesus asked God to forgive the people responsible for the crucifixion, to not count that sin against them. This would include the entire crowd that was begging for the blood of Christ. So if I had to pick who I’m going to trust on whether the Jews can be accepted by God, I believe I will take the words of Jesus Christ over the words of any pope or pastor. Excellent work brother, please keep it up. So many of Abrahams children have been hurt by actions perpetrated by supposed Christ followers, and many of them have refused to even hear the gospel now. We need to make this right. Please keep my wife, brothers, and I in your prayers as we work to continue to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
And yet Christian hatred of Jews was unrelenting for almost two thousand years.
Amen
Name one example where jews you knew refused to hear Gospel expressly because Christians wronged them.
child of God
@@TwilightTrekker1, I can name many. I come from a Jewish background. Many Jews (religious) will not discuss and hear the NT because of the bad taste of how some Christians have treated Jews. It may not be right, but it is there.
Very appreciated, I believe equally (or perhaps more) dangerous is the position that some Christians have that the Jewish people are "on the same way" as Christians. Sadly, they are largely unsaved and no amount of us waving their flag will change that. We cannot be on the same way until they turn to Jesus since He is the only way. They're not holier either, they're just like the rest of us. A messianic jew is not better than any other Christian, that wall was torn down. We should treat them as we treat any other person, with love, respect and compassion.
The Jews are still God's chosen people, and God's plan with them is not over yet. Romans 11 would be a good read for you :)
Yes, the Jews need Christ like everyone else in order to be saved, but they're still the heirs of the promises.
This.
Dual covenantism - the idea that the Jews can still use the Torah to be saved, while everyone else uses the Gospel - is a heresy. (Not you)
This comment needs to be pinned. There will be no peace for Israel until they submit to the Prince of Peace. We need to pray for them but not fall into the trap of thinking they are saved apart from Christ.
@@yajeel Indeed. John 14.6
I haven't even started the video, and I'll say this. I'll take the words of the Lord asking forgiveness for his abusers over the rants of an angry mob blind with rage. "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do" holds infinitely more weight than "Let his blood be on us and our children."
Amen!
Yeah but if they were forgiven , why do the new testament paints the jews to be forever condemned with this quote?
Also you realise no sane person will take the responsibility for a sin on himself And his children? Maybe on himself but no one will say "me and my children" why would he want that? This is clearly the new testament sayings the jews forever hold the responsibility of the sin of killing jesus.
Ironically , it was since then that the jews have carried the blasphemous sins of jesus, for a sin he was supposed to carry for them.
They are both scripture though you can't dismiss one and hold up the other. The only way is through Him so Jews should repent to be saved just like any other person but their people do have great sins on their shoulders.
Exactly!
Read 1 Thess 2:14-15. The Holy Ghost states that the Jews killed Christ.
When I see that quote, "His blood will be on our heads and on our children," the hardened hearts respond with conceit, but I think we ought to respond in horror. What must possess a man to wish something so grave upon himself? It fills me with sorrow for them. What joy and hope we have that the Gospel message is for them too!
The Jews were having a great deal of trouble pushing Porteous Pilate to carry out the execution. When the Jews took full credit for the killing, Pilate relented.
@@jamesreed5678 Paul gave them full credit too. 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judæa are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
It was the Blood of the Lamb that allowed death to passover the homes of the faithful.
It is the Blood of the Lamb that takes our sins away.
His blood be upon us indeed.
For because of our sin He shed His Blood.
And because of His shedding of His Blood we are forgiven and saved.
That is why we eat of His Body
And drink of His blood.
To remember that His sacrifice gives us eternal life.
Our Salvation is not free.
He paid the ultimate price for it.
Yikes. So much blood...this sounds like a cult.
"His blood be upon us" uttered by the chief priests had a different meaning from what you are portraying here.
This type of analogy confuses the people. It is not a good thing.
You said Jesus paid the ultimate price of our salvation.
Think again.
Jesus died for all people. Hence Jesus paid the ultimate price for all people. According to your reasoning, it must follow that all people are saved which is false.
@@justthink8952 most certainly true. Just testifying about the Atonement by the Blood of the Lamb. And how I don't believe that all Jews are responsible for the death of Jesus.
For one, Jesus asked to forgive them for they know not what they do. Jesus will not for eternity recall our sins. He forgives and forgets.
The other part was that Jesus died willingly, as He submitted to the will of the Father.
And ultimately His death and shedding of Blood was what made atonement for our sins.
Peter tried to prevent it, but Jesus said, Get behind Me Satan. So focusing on why He shed His Blood is more important than accusing the Jewish people throughout history that they are responsible for His death.
But I do see your point.
@@justthink8952 It is written:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
He died for all. But ALL do not accept His gift.
I've never met or spoken with a single Christian 'anti-semite' that believes Jews cannot be saved & are irreparably condemned.
I've heard plenty of them go against the nonsense of people like John Hagee where they teach that Jews are already saved despite rejecting Christ, individually, but never heard any of them say that Jews can't be saved, or even that they don't want them to.
Who's saying this? Am I missing something?
Sadly, it's being said a lot right now, because of disagreement over the war with Israel/Palestine. People suddenly think they are God, and know the hearts and intent of mankind, like only God does. I'm surprised you haven't seen it, because it is very prevalent now, with people citing scriptures in revelation to "support" this claim, and even call the Jewish people "antichrist". However, they forget that even as they called for Jesus death, He called His Father to forgive them, for they knew not what they did. People also tend to forget that they are not God Himself, so they don't get to play the "who can or cannot be saved" game. Sadly, hatred for Jews has become prevalent again, where hatred should not exist for our fellow man. We should call out evil when we see it, but to say that any cannot be saved goes directly against the words of Jesus Himself.
Winger is straw-manning. It’s dishonest and disgusting.
Those who believe mein kampf is compatible with Christianity.
You’re not missing anything, those of us who disagree with Hagee’s dual covenant heresy are called antisemites because it’s easier to dismiss us than deal with the possibility that we’re right.
No, this entire thing is bad faith argumentation
I personally see them quote the "synagogue of Satan" verse a lot more, but it doesn't work either because it's obviously directed towards a specific group of people, not ALL JEWS EVERYWHERE
Muslims claim Abraham's birthright through Ishmael which makes them the synagogue of Satan.
And who is that specific group of people?
@@grizzly_8917 Those who are not Jews. That's what the text says. Today we have such people. British-Israelites or the Black Hebrew movement.
@@grizzly_8917 A group of, as the verse itself says, fake Jews. Again, not ALL JEWS EVERYWHERE, but a handful that were harassing the church of Smyrna
Don't you think those controlling Isreal and the zionist movement would seem more plausible?
Thank you so much for this, Mike. My heart has been so pained for the Jewish people, and this is such an important video.
My heart is pained for my own people whom these wicked J-ws are persecuting.
I kept wondering what antisemitism has to do with "paper bowls". Only a look into the comment section enlightened me that Mike is talking about "papal bulls". Sorry, not a native English speaker :((
No worries, the majority of secular English speakers probably wouldn’t know either.
Edit: I probably shouldn’t have said secular. The majority Protestants in general probably don’t either.
@@brittybee6615 That's comforting
Mike didn't give the reason why papal bull imposed wearing of identification mark by the Jews. He read the papal bulls and he must have known the reasons. As per the video, he disagreed with the reason behind it. In other words, he supported what the Jews were doing then. He should also have mentioned what type of identification mark they were to wear. It will speak volumes whether the symbol was demeaning, or neutral or it represented the important aspect of Jewish belief. For example, if Christians were compelled to wear a decent cross on their neck, it should not be viewed in a negative light. You want to spread Christianity, so why should you be afraid of showing yourself as a Christian? Likewise the Jews. Why be offended when you are asked to identify as a Jew? Aren't Jews believe they are the chosen people of God?
Mike has the right to critique the Catholic Church but he is also expected to be fair in doing so. Failure to do that only proved that he is dishonest. What he did here is point out that the Catholic Church had persecuted the Jews "for being Jews" or "for crucifying Jesus". This is the conclusion we draw from his video. The only reference he made was that he does not say the Jews were all good.
The Catholic Church does not hold grudge against the Jews for the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It was bound to happen and we know why it should happen. But what Catholics hated is the effort of the Jews in suppressing of the gospel by denying the deity and resurrection of Jesus Christ with a false narrative of their own.
Catholic Church sees the hand of the Jews in spreading error and corruption in the world which is designed to counteract against the teachings of the Catholic Church.
To convert the Jews, we can't accept status quo and being nice to the Jews. They should be told some facts to their face.
@@justthink8952 No idea why you felt compelled to write an essay under my comment, but your first paragraph is already wrong, my friend. If Christians were forced to wear a cross in order to identify them as Christians it would not be a positive thing, it would be persecution. The only reason why anyone would force you to openly display your religion (or - in the case of the Jews - your ethnicity) is because they want to be "warned" about you and be able to discriminate against you. Your attempt to twist the obvious and justify the evil actions both Catholics and Protestants did to Jews in the name of Christ is appalling.
@@friedrichrubinstein2346
So you are saying, if you are identified by the government as a Christian, then that's evil, that's persecution, right?
Did the Catholic Church persecuted the Jews from free movement, from earning their livelihood, from owning property?
Did the Catholic Church put Jews to death for being Jews? If yes, then the Catholic Church segregated and persecuted the Jews. But do you have proofs?
How do you substantiate that Catholic Church persecuted the Jews? What evil thing did Catholic Church do to Jews for being Jews? I would like to hear you on this question.
If they are afraid to be identified as Jews then why do they call themselves Jews?
Blessed are the peacemakers
Israel would love peace if Hamas and Hezbollah would quit attacking them. According to the Bible, Israel is promised everything from the Nile to the Euphrates.
The problem is the non distinction of race and religion. All and I mean all church fathers agreed rabbinic Jews were wrong and blatantly hated Christ . It’s not a racial thing, there is no race in Christ .. no Jew or Greek . But if you follow the Pharisees and go headlong into evil doctrines of men. It’s not anti semitism . It’s what Jesus was warning of and they went so far into it after , the Talmud is so blasphemous it’s insane .
Anyone following that religion needs to repent and come to Jesus .
It’s not about someone Jewish cannot be saved , of course they can . But it’s specifically evil to hate Jesus and are glad he was killed and still reject him , we do not need to support that ! The whole point of Christ is there is no Jew or Greek! Let’s get rid of racial discrimination in all ways . At the same time let’s tell the truth about the path people that follow a very specific religion since the time of Jesus and do our best to show them the truth about Christ .
There is no male or female either.
IMO any religion not centered in Jesus is a synagogue of Satan. He is the Head of all false religions. Israel is God's timeclock for the end of the Age. They will outlast all their haters. Nevertheless only a remnant will be saved. However at this present time there are more Messianic Jews in Israel than in any time since the first century. Those "Christians" who vomit the most hate towards the Jews seem to be for the most part Orthodox. A lot of their basis for saying God is finished with Israel and that God has replaced Israel with the Church stems for Constantine. When observing that the Jews had been scattered throughout the world and that Israel had been renamed Palestine by the Romans and the Jews were forbidden from entering Jerusalem he naturally concluded the Church had replaced Israel. The problem is he didn't believe scripture and couldn't foresee 1,700+ years into the future when in 1948 a Nation, Israel, was born in a day.
you are mistaken if jesus became a jew its for the grace of the jewish rabbis who decided to accept him as such, its highly unlikely that he nor the apostles were of jewish origine , but our beloved rabbis saw the good of the gentils if they would learn the hebrew bible and the notion of god in the world
Israel betrayed Jesus, Gentiles Killed Him, All of Humanity has a hand in his death, but praise be to GOD that while we are still sinners He still loved and died for us.
Exactly. I always see groypers saying "the JeWs killed Jesus!" but it's like, if you're a Christian, you should be aware... YOU killed Jesus just as much as the Jews did.
Thank you for the reminder. The cross (torture stick in some traditions) was a Roman thing, not a Jewish thing.
Israel betrayed Jesus? So I take it you believe in collective guilt. Do you believe that every German living at the time of the Holocaust bears responsibility for that event?
@@markkozlowski3674 Watch the video, he quotes a verse where Peter says to the Jews "You betrayed Jesus." That being, said WE ALL killed Jesus. I did, you did, the Jews did, the Romans did. Collective guilt? Yes, all humanity is responsible for Jesus death.
Israel pressured the gentiles to kill Him.
the problem with terms like "racism" and "anti-semitism" is how the current world and society define those terms.
basically, things have become "if you don't agree and support me in everything i do, you're a racist/anti-semite" and this is strictly not true.
the terms racism and anti-semitism is used as a liability shield.
but overall the message is true. Christ and His sacrifice is for us all equally. this also includes pedophiles, murderers, rapists, the "worst" of the "worst". also includes your political "enemy"
True but even racists and antisemites use this exact misuse this as a shield to act out thier hatred.
So we take it on the chin, and move forward in Christ, like we always have. There will never be a time where we not accused of things we are not. Come at it from a spiritual angle and not political and you will find it won't bother you what the world labels us as the Church. God bless
I mean, currently antisemitic sentiments and outright crimes are frighteningly high, so I don’t think we can handwave it away as the product of a too sensitive society. For months now people have been proving they don’t care about Jews whatsoever and as Christians we should take a firmer stance against that.
@@TTUGStudios it doesn't bother me, but its important for others to understand that just because you may be labeled these labels (including by christians) doesn't mean you're a bad person, a bad christian, or even wrong.
i think a high percentage of even christians would now-a-days label God as anti-semitic at the going rate. the entire promised nation of Israel is still in exile
That's true of us all, @junk, we are ALL estranged from God, and it's only through the repentance and faith in Christ that anyone is not spiritually exiled. Does it matter if they are exiled? They are an example of how God views the world, and they have been brought back to their land too, by the grace of God. The Jews are not our enemies, they are our unsaved brothers, just like everyone else is. We aren't any better than they are.
If we insist that those upon whom the blood of Jesus lies are forever cut away, then we have no possible way of believing we ourselves could ever be saved through the same blood. The very message of the Gospel is that the blood of Jesus is a force of freedom in defiance of condemnation. Thank you, Winger, for bringing clarity when the history of Christianity is so often tainted by the acts of fallen humans.
Joel Richardson's book 'When a Jew Rules the World' goes into the atrocities perpetrated by the church against Jews over the last 1800 years. It's free on his website and well worth a read.
Grace is always the message.
Jews started the porn industry and got prayer taken out of school. Still about that grace?
As a christian, it's so refreshing in seeing a big channel openly fighting against antisemitism. I'm sure Mike has never been antisemitic as an individual, nor have i, but it would be foolish at best to try to deny the christian community hasn't done very bad things against the jewish people as a whole in the past
"I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew." - Romans 11:1-2
baloney
The people who push antisemitism under a false banner of Christ need to read Romans 11 until it hurts, and repent, otherwise they are only condemning themselves.
Refreshing for what reason exactly? Antisemitism, being a fancy word for racism, is not supported by and is actively fought against by all major Christian organizations and influencers today.
I do not hate them. I just do them a pass. We do not worship the same god.
God chose a remnant from his people.
I recently wrote a play about pilate and Jesus that quotes this. It is ironic that his blood being on us and our children is what will pay for their sins. As the blood of the lamb covered the door in the first passover (which they were celebrating at the time) the blood of the lamb of God is shed to cover all who believe. We all need forgiveness, we all fall short. God loves his people either jew, or gentile.
I have never interpreted or been taught or heard that people view this in an anti-semetic way. Thank you for enlightening us!
That's because it's just a strawman vehicle for calling biblical Christians "anti-semites".
It's passages like this that ultimately led to the holocaust. Especially the language in John, the most anti-semitic of the gospels.
@@ryanrevland4333lmao. The gospels are not antisemetic.
@@brahtrumpwonbigly7309 The Gospel of John refers to "the Jews" 31 times negatively, associating them with darkness and the devil. Paul accuses "the Jews" of killing Jesus and the prophets and that God's wrath is upon them. These books are not pro-semetic...they are anti.
@@ryanrevland4333 Then your problem is with God and the Bible. Throughout the NT, "The Jews" are viewed negatively. Mike wants us to ignore that. Peter said the crowd of Jews that they killed Jesus. What Jesus said to the Pharisees, applies to Jews that do not accept Him. The relation with God is broken for those that do not accept Jesus. Their lineage to Abraham, if any, will not save them. We Christians do not worship the same god as them. I do not hate Jews. I just do not understand why we gave them a pass.
"The Gospel is for the condemned... and all humanity is condemned before God." Yup.
"The fact that YOU are saved is proof that they can be!" Double yup.
But until they repent, they are NOT saved and are enemies of God. In fact, in I Thessalonians 2, Paul describes them as A) having killed Jesus and the prophets and B) hostile to God and anemies of all mankind.
"Antisemitism" IS PART OF Christianity. It's right in the Bible.
@@ZaklogtheGreat - Nope. Until we repent and submit to Christ, we *ALL* are considered enemies of God as well (Romans 5:8). Paul and Jesus both described us as being God's enemies before Christ redeemed us. The Jewish people are no different than any of us in that regard - and then once they become saved, there's still no difference (Galatians 3:28) between us and them.
Yes, that particular group of people (specifically the Pharisees) assisted in carrying out the execution of Jesus, but so did the Romans, and it was EACH OF OUR sin that required He sacrifice Himself to save us. We are just as guilty as anyone else.
If we don't see that, we're much more similar to those Jewish Pharisees who considered themselves Holy because of their genealogy and lineage. God looks at the heart, not ethnicity. And He especially doesn't like those who claim superiority instead of humbly asking for His mercy. (Luke 18)
@@thinkingtoinfinity Cool. So Paul was mistaken when he described Jews specifically as “enemies of God”?
@@ZaklogtheGreat - He wasn't mistaken at all, because he was referring to a group of people who had rejected Jesus as being enemies of God, just as he describes US as enemies of God before we accept Jesus. He was correcting their incorrect notion that Jews were accepted by God merely because of their genealogy.
You're making the mistake of hyper-focusing on ONE verse and ignoring everything else Paul (and Jesus!) said on the issue. That's the exact error Mike is correcting in this video.
@@thinkingtoinfinity Ok, so “Jews are enemies of God” is a true statement straight from the Bible, right?
Yes. 100 percent, yes. We are all sinners offered grace!
Y'all, I think the definition Mr. Winger here is referring to in using "anti-semitism" is quite obvious. But in case it's not, I'm like 99.999% certain that when he says "anti-Semitics/Semitism" he means individuals who are hatefully prejudice and/or violent towards religious/ethnic jews. Because that would be unbiblical.
Simply disagreeing with a Jewish person or the nation of Israel is *not* anti-Semitic. And I'd like to think Mike is a pretty rational and consistent guy. Unless he gives any indication otherwise, I wouldn't just assume he means the more catch-all umbrella definition that includes simple disagreement.
If he was rational and consistent in this situation, he would know what a semite was (and thus why the phrase "anti-semitism" is ridiculous) and he would know that 10 of the 12 tribes of Israel are not Jewish (Judah -> Jew).
@@Austin-kt7ky The term "antisemitism" is clearly defined as anti-Jewish racism, whether you like it or not. Yes, there are "semites" that aren't Jews, that doesn't change the definition of the term, nor does it call someone's "rationality and consistency" into question. We are using lots of words whose meanings are different from its root-word.
@@friedrichrubinstein2346 “The word means what I said it means because it’s politically expedient for me to use this definition!” So much for truth.

"For these be the days of Vengeance wherein all things written must be fulfilled.' Why would Jesus say this? "Weep not for me but for your children", The Judgement literally came on the ones He was speaking to and their children.
Winger just traded in whatever credibility he had as a Bible teacher for Judeo-Americanism. Charismania is pure hogwash.
It came on Jerusalem and the leaders of the Jews at that time.
The rest were scattered.
They have the same opportunity to be saved as the rest of us.
Like Paul says, if they do not continue in unbelief they that were broken off can be grafted back into their natural tree.
I don’t know why it so hard for people to understand this.
I think it’s because people don’t read their Bible, they only read cherry picked verses.
@@onehappydawg Except they weren’t scattered - they were annihilated. Old Covenant Israel has not existed for nearly 2,000 years.

@@whatgives1482 Oh my word, you are so confused. He absolutely remained a Jew until the day that he died. 🤣
When he was accused of teaching the Jews is the diaspora that they could ignore the law, he went through ritual purification and paid for other men to have their heads shaved to prove his loyalty to Torah.
He also took a Nazirite vow.
He kept the festivals.
He circumcised Timothy himself.
In Acts, he told the disputing Jews and Gentiles that they should remain in whatever state they were (circumcised or uncircumcised, I.e. Jew or Gentile) when they came to faith in Yeshua. That was the ruling of the First Jerusalem Council. Why on earth would he violate his own instructions or the ruling of a council that he himself took part in?
Seriously, you are under some bizarre teaching and need to ask the Lord to open your eyes to the truth of His Word.
My views are Chistian. The Gospel is for all people, including Jews. But, they have rejected it for 2000 years. Their lineage, if any, to Abraham will not save them. Until they do, we do not worship the same god.
Based
Your view that Jews don’t worship the same God is false and unbiblical.
Jews and Christians worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Non-messianic Jews simply don’t believe Yeshua was the Messiah and are sadly lost unless they accept His atonement.
You need to be very careful with your statements.
Jews believe that Jesus Christ is burning in hell right now.@@dobromirgoodpeace23
Exactly.
That this even has to be explained is astounding. Thank you, Mike, for your ministry.
Have been studying curses and blesses and the power of such words. They cursed themselves. That is not antisemitism . I agree that antisemitism is wrong.
They must accept Jesus to escape their own curse.
Exactly. Mike is making the argument that Jews can be saved, but subtly generalizes it into an endorsement of Judaism. I don’t think this was a deliberate attempt to be deceptive or anything (I doubt it was even intentional). Jew can and need to be saved from their satanic religion. I say this because I love them. Calling that love hate is absurd
@@monroecastillo1027 Yeah true, I'm not sure he intended it but this is a strawman, and one that he's pair with calling other Christians "anti-semites".
They didnt curse themselves. No one speaks like this, and they certainly don't chant it in unison as depicted in the gospels. This is an author writing decades later making it up.
@@ryanrevland4333 So you’re saying the Bible is false? Shut your mouth and do not presume to instruct Christians.
Don't we all need Jesus to escape the eternal wrath of God?
Once again! Very well stated Mike! Thank you for your service to God!
Mike Winger is a false teacher by conflating unrelated Biblical verses in the Gospel of Matthew 27:25 "25 And all the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!” with Acts 2:39 "39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call.” One is clearly an auto-curse of condemned non-Believing Jews and the other has to do with a promise for Believers.
Mike Winger makes a lot of mistakes, what can I say. As a Teacher and Theologian, he's untrustworthy.
@michaelregan3914, let's thank Mike Winger for conflating Matthew 27:25 out of context with Acts 2:39. We can all appreciate a little heresy every now and then. The Gospel verse in Matthew 27:25 is about a group of non-Believing Jews who curse themselves and their descendants while the verse in Acts 2:39 is about a promise to Believers. He's also in error by conflating Biblical Israel with the modern state of Israel which was only founded in 1948.
As usual Mike, a great teaching. Thank you so much for your work on behalf of God. Your rewards in Heaven will too many to count.
Amen! Grace, Love and Forgiveness is extended to all
Now is the time... today is the day of salvation ❤
Antisemitism means you’re a good person asking the right questions.
Looking forward to your video on what the Talmud says about Jesus!
What does the Talmud have to do with any of this?
@@friedrichrubinstein2346because it's what they (Jews) follow I suppose. And is enlightening to their thoughts about christ. Therefore relevant to the discussion
Thank you.... 🙏🏻
Your point is what exactly? How does this counter what Mike said? Examine yourself, darkness lurks where you should not want it.
@@jasonlomax9382his point is that we should stop caring about “anti semitism” (literally anything joos don’t like) when those same people hate us and our King.
The issue is do the Jews of today still reject Christ or not!! I watched a lot of videos where Some Jews hate the church and reject Christ still today like they did back then
We don’t need to take the Bible out of context to recognize when Jewish people (or any people) are not following God, and should repent.
As much as some (not saying Mike) might want to call you an “anti-Semite” for that, they’re wrong, and it is our duty to call everyone to repentance, and to Christ. That’s actually loving.
What did the apostate Old Covenant Jews say about Christ? Something Mike doesn’t know or want to know is that since the first century, there are no more Old Covenant Jews. Those who did not obey Christ and the Apostles were exterminated by God, just as John the Baptist, Christ and the Apostles prophesied. This means Revelation 2:9 & 3:9 have applied to the “Jewish” nation ever since, just as the Patricines and Saints of old and Martin Luther all testified. Oh but Mike Winger knows better 😂
@@williamcarlson9460 All this means, that as far as salvation is concerned, there is no difference between jews, muslims, hindus, progressive western Woke, witches, wicca, satanists, atheists etc.
So for what reason were the jews always singled out?
One of the texts the anti semites used was the one Mike explains.
In contrast to you two, mike does not attach this text to salvation, and he decouples it from the thought that jews are a "cursed race"
Google it...
"An Islamic TV channel has been warned by the broadcasting standards regulator *Ofcom* that it faces sanctions after showing antisemitic lectures by a preacher who called Jews a “cursed race”.
Peace TV Urdu was found in breach of TV standards for broadcasting two recorded lecturers by the late Dr Israr Ahmad in September last year."
Ofcom is a UK regulatory body, so this was broadcasted within the UK...
In my opinion, jews are no more cursed than muslim, or my non-believen co-patriots (i.e. people living in the same country as i.)
John 3:18
18 Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, *but whoever does not believe has already been condemned* , because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
Thank you so much for your clear and helpful videos!
Our Lord Jesus Christ abolished Judaism after his crucifixion and the distruction of the temple in 70AD. He left that house desolate Matthew 23:38. Christianity and the body of Christ was birthed. He who accepts the Son has the Father 1 John 2:23.
We should be praying for the body of Christ and for the Gospel message to keep going forward, not a Physical Israel that denies Christ. The New Covenant is clear that we need to accept Christ. God Bless 🙏
No, no, no Jesus told us to fight for people to reject him and build blasphemous anti-Christ theocratic ethno-states and make sure we suppress all opposition to these people! I don't know why that's not obvious to these anti-Semites!?
I see some coments complaining that Mike does not define anti semitism. It is very clear by his arguments that he is debunking the idea that the sins of past jews have made their descendants unreachable by the truth of the Gospel and that all evil that befalls them is justified because the killed Christ. Surely the blood of the resurrected Son of God is powerful enough to cover that transgression...
His blood is enough to pay for ALL sin for ALL time but that does not equate to a curse.
A curse, I have learned personally, is whenever you allow demons into you and those around you and then the next generation is born under the influence of the same demons. Now imagine a thousand years of this demon having sovereignty over a group of people. At that point, Satan basically has dominion over their flesh. They are fully blind and would need a miracle to let the Word penetrate Satans fortress.
For a thousand years, central and South Americans were sacrificing humans for their satanic rituals. Canaanites did the same. Africans did the same. Every one of these groups of people are still living with the curse of a thousand year allegiance to the devil. Every one of them CAN be saved but think of the works and miracles it would require to break A THOUSAND YEARS of Satan’s foothold.
Oh, and Canaanites… I mention them because they are the people referred to in Revelation 3:9 😉 they just use the J word as a shield to hide their evil works. This is why they are so cursed. They don’t even hide the fact that they aren’t who they claim to be as per Acts 7:43! The star of Remphan!! It’s plain for all the world to see!
But who is actually claiming that individual Jews cannot become Christian and be saved? I've never heard that.
What sum anti-semites are saying is that the covenant is broken, that God's promise to the Jewish people as a collective is annulled because they killed Christ.
@@gulanhem9495the covenant was broken repeatedly. That’s why God’s grace granted us a NEW WAY and we must not hold the old covenant while expecting His grace. That means that every single person ever born, ever, IS saved. All they have to do is accept it 💁🏼♀️ it’s literally that easy.
I have heard hundreds of testimonies from people that went to hell and came back. They all say the same thing: every person in hell knows they deserve hell and they wish they would have done differently if they only had the chance. I do believe that any person that is given the chance to know Jesus yet REFUSES, even in his almighty presence at the threshold of death, is simply destined to never be saved. They just will NOT admit the TRUTH and for that they pay. Forever. How evil can a person be to look at hell and their eternal destruction and still say “nah, it ain’t Jesus”? That is the ULTIMATE evil. Nothing could be more evil. Nothing.
The current occupants of Israel are not the Biblical Jews. *The Master Bible's "Archaeological Supplement", p. 1398-G:*
"The Zionists are not Jews according to race. Rather, they are the descendants of a hoard of pagans who pressed into Russia in the first century of our era and in due time became proselytes to Judaism. In 692 A.D., they formed the Khazar kingdom. In 955 A.D., Russia conquered them. They are neither Jew by race, nor are they genuinely Jewish in religion. They pass as Jews and pretend that they are the descendants of Israel and therefore, have a right to Palestine as their national homeland, but they are false in their claims and irreligious in their living."
*The Mystery of the Gentiles, by Ted R. Weiland, p. 25:*
"By their own testimony, the vast majority of today's Jews are not racial Israelites or even Judahites. History reveals that most of today's Jews are Khazars and Edomites because of forced conversion in the seventh and second centuries BC, and voluntary conversion in the seventh century AD."
*Israelis' Five Trillion Dollar Secret, by Col. Curtis B. Dall, p. 9:*
"The claim of the Eastern European, Yiddish-speaking Jews, of pagan-Khazar origin, to an historic or ethnic association either with Palestine or the Jews [Judahites] who lived there, is one of the world's greatest frauds."
*Israelis' Five Trillion Dollar Secret, by Col. Curtis B. Dall, p. 9:*
"The claim of the Eastern European, Yiddish-speaking Jews, of pagan-Khazar origin, to an historic or ethnic association either with Palestine or the Jews [Judahites] who lived there, is one of the world's greatest frauds."

Wow! What a beautiful explanation! Love seeing Acts! The plan of salvation laid out before us. How do you feel about baptism in Jesus name vs. the Trinity?
Every single one of us are enemies of God when sin entered humanity, not just Jews. It is because of our sin, Christ had to die in our place.
So what about Jews who don't believe Jesus was the Messiah and view us non Jews to this day, as Gentiles and not God's people?
Not saved, just as any other non-Christian.
Well, if you truly read and study the Bible, you can research the evidence, God required for Israelites to substantiate their claims of being a descendant of Israel. Then, you can conclude that no one today possesses the evidence that your God requires to be considered an actual descendant of Jacob/Israel. Then you can research the unauthorized changes by Rabbinic law that altered God's requirements for validating someone's claim of being a Jew or Jewish. Next, you should call yourself, since no one today can furnish the proof required by God to substantiate their claims of being a child of Israel, why would men ie Rabbis change the standard to make it extremely easy to become a Jew? Why? The answer should become obvious. Therefore, you should reach the correct conclusion which is, that it's true you are a gentile but so is everyone else according to the scriptures.
Mike,
Will you do a video on Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel? Curious to see your take on his teachings.
Hey Mike, if any chance you see this I need help locating a specific book. This book I believe was in one of the Catholicism videos and it was about the early church in rome
People need to learn how to read the Bible. Thanks Mike for the video.
Yes, but people also need to realize we shouldn't have any sort of special respect for Israel. They're not spiritual Israel. They aren't the children of God. Christians are, and all of the promises belong to us. Our only concern for Israel should be justice/human rights and defending an ally.

@@rickstark85okay that’s awesome. Then we shouldn’t be concerned about defending them, like you originally said.
They wanted the smoke!
"Pilate asked them, “Then what would you have me to do with Jesus who is called the Anointed One?” They all shouted back, “Crucify him!” “Why?” Pilate asked. “What has he done wrong?” But they kept shouting out, “Crucify him!” When Pilate realized that a riot was about to break out and that it was useless to try to reason with the crowd, he sent for a basin of water. After washing his hands in front of the people, he said, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. The responsibility for his death is now yours!” And the crowd replied, “Let his blood be on us and on our children!” So he released Barabbas to the people."
But yes, you are correct on all counts. But they did in fact kill Jesus.
Peter in fact said so.
And Jesus said "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." I'll accept the words of Christ.
1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judæa are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
Paul agrees. I have never heard anyone say they can't be forgiven but I have heard many "Christians" say they are still God's chosen people and therefore they don't need to be forgiven or as he seems to allude too here, they aren't guilty. The early church by definition was Christian not Jewish. When you choose Christ you must leave Judaism behind.
@@Crystal-iy4si Forgiveness does not mean that everyone must lie and deny that they killed him, or for technicality pedants, that they had him killed.

Hey Mike have you ever read about what happened at Clifford's tower in England in 1190?
The first reference to wearing markings for Jews a I could find is the early 8th century under Islamic rule. That was also for Christians to wear. Europe seemed copy this idea 300 years later and applied it inconsistently. It's certainly not biblical anyhow. Jesus died for all our sins, nowhere Jews are excluded from salvation indeed.
You are a pathetic historian, Anti-Semitism predates Islam. Pharoah was an antisemitic. The temple was destroyed multiple times by other nations way before Islam. The Church discriminated against them before Islam....ironically enough, you are still be antisemitic, as Arabs are Semitic ppl, genius.

This is an important video. Thank you.
A timely word indeed
I've long believed that God initially utilized the Jewish people to spread His message until Jesus arrived, extending the invitation to all without the requirement of converting to Judaism. It's possible I've misinterpreted the Bible, but I've understood the mistakes and missteps documented by the Jewish people, as they were the ones God chose to use, to serve as reflections of our own shortcomings. Instead of elevating ourselves, these accounts prompt us to acknowledge our faults and recognize the importance of relying on Christ.
Christ is King. If this statement causes you to get angry, then this speaks more about you than the person who says it. Hating people is not Christian, but let's not pretend like Jews and Christians have had good relations or that the Jews hold good will towards Christian and Christian nations. This is a historical fact. One that must be addressed if you want Christian values to be reinstated in your country, instead of Jewish values.
Let's grant all that. Your framing ignores the rather salient facts that if you haven't personally believed in Jesus, you are 100% certainly a) guilty of the death of Jesus, b) a child of the devil, c) damned to hell.
Furthermore, Romans 11 specifically says that even though they are enemies of the Gospel, they are not abandoned by God forever, and then later on it orders Christians not to despise them - this being specifically hardened, damned, unbelieving Jews.
Have you believed in Jesus? Or are you relying on a label for your salvation?
We are told to evaluate scripture in context. Throughout the NT, "the Jews" is stated in a negative way. Remember when "The Passion of The Christ" came out. It was condemned for being anti-Jewish.
Though I highly disagree with anyone saying that "The passion of the Christ" was anti Jewish, and yes I remember that, I don't think what we are seeing now is the same thing. The passion just showed the true history of what occured. However, if one took it and used it as a reason to have hatred for Jews, then that's bad and it's on them. Jesus said, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." Those are the words that carry the most weight in this conversation. Only God knows the heart or intentions of mankind truly. We can gain a lot of knowledge, but we will never be Him. He is all knowing and we are not. I think oftentimes, when a whole group is criticized for the actions of some, that is exactly what human beings are doing. They are attempting to be like God, and that is the original sin of pride and arrogance. We don't know. He does.
I’ve got a newsflash for you: everyone who wrote the NT was a Jew. All of Yeshua’s first followers were Jews.
“The Jews” referred to negatively in the NT were the rulers who opposed Yeshua and His followers.
So perhaps drop the thinly veiled antisemitic remarks you keep posting, especially considering the Messiah Himself is a Jew.
The only thing that the Second Testament really addresses about Jews in regards to being negative is their false religion leading them to rejecting Christ. It doesn't say "Jews are the scum of the earth". It simply says "you guys were chosen to preserve the oracles of God, so you have no excuse to reject the Messiah".
Thanks Mike, for this insightful video. And I don't think you're weird about reading the papal bulls. My wife mentioned something today that was put forth by a papal bull and I thought, "I really want to go back and read that, as a matter of fact I want to go through a lot of them." I'm actually not kidding (I like history). Maybe we're both just a little different that way. LOL
The amount of people in the comments that are trying to absolve me of my Jewish identity as a believer in my Messiah is astounding.
Y'all know that faith in Jesus accommodates different cultures and identities right?
Nevertheless, Mike, thank you for this video. Thank you for your strong stand in today's world.
Sorry, but Galatians 3:28 is very clear: there are no Jews in the church.
You know that Jew does not refer to a religion? It's an ethnicity. Your statement is ignorant tbh.
By your standard there is no Jew nor Gentile, so there is no church then period.
Whether you are a Jew or a Gentile you need to be saved by Jesus, the whole fight in the Bible between Jew and Gentiles was about the practice of the Law of Moses. Paul was very much involved in the church and he never denied that he was still a Jew, if I remember correctly Paul said he was from the tribe of Benjamin.
I still remain from my own tribe, being saved did not change my ethnicity, neither did it change my culture, I still do practice things of my culture which is lawful before God, things which are unlawful I've abandoned.
You guys are causing hard times for some Jews who might want to enter into the Kingdom of God, don't just quote random scriptures without consulting the Lord first.
If then it was the Lord who instructed you to post such a random scripture, then I will ask for forgiveness for that.
@@ZaklogtheGreatand acts is pretty clear when Paul refers to himself as a Jew, a Roman citizen, and a Pharisee. Context of Galatians is we are all equal and made one in Christ.

This is referenced in both scripture and confirmed by other reliable early church sources.
"On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread" - Acts 20:7
"And on the Lord's day of the Lord come together and break bread, and give thanks, having before confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure." - Didache 14:1 (70 AD)
"We keep the eighth day (Sunday) with joyfulness, the day also on which Jesus rose again from the dead." - Epistle of Barnabas 15:6-8 (74 AD)
"Those who were brought up in the ancient order of things (Jews) have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath, but living in the observance of the Lord's day, on which also our life has sprung up again by him and by his death." - Ignatius' Epistle to Magnesians 8 (110 AD)
There are many more such statements from early church fathers like Justin Martyr, Origen, Eusebius, Athanasius, Cyril, and more on through the first several centuries of the church. So not only does Sunday worship go all the way back to the time of the Apostles, so too does the specific understanding that this was not at all in observance of the Sabbath, but instead in observance of the Lord's day, i.e. the resurrection.
@@janelleg597 how about reading what I said instead of what you think I said.
Jesus can to Save that is lost, not to condemn. as Christians, we are called to live like Christ.
I have a question.
I've been witnessing to my friend for a few months now. Recently she called me and we were talking about God, she asked about the difference between the old and new testament and why God is "different." I didn't have an answer. Btw love your videos.
What role did your faith play in the purging of your sin on the cross Mike? Anyone?
Thank you Mike!!!
Isn't this verse seen as a prophetic utterance? Why does this cause us to fall into the modern trap of thinking this is a slur? The response of those who heard Peter accuse them of crucifying the Christ did the right thing when they were cut to the quick, recognizing their culpability.
And what of those who refused to repent?
Paul also clearly defines their culpability. 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judæa are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
And despite many Christians claiming a group today will fulfill Zechariah’s prophetic word, the actual fulfillment of Zechariah 12:10 was recorded in Acts when first-century Jews did exactly what Zechariah said they would do once they realized what they had done in connection to Christ.
Zechariah 12:10 - And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weep over a firstborn.
Actual Fulfillment: 👇
Acts 2:36, 37 - Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus
*_whom you crucified.”_*
Act 2:37 - Now when they heard this *_they were cut to the heart,_* and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers,
*_what shall we do?”_*

I 100% agree. But what DOES this verse say then?
True, Brother Mike, but from my reading for all of scripture, the two extremes fail to be in balance with scripture. Scripture very repeatedly foretells of the wickedness of the Israelite leaders condemnation of the Messiah and the prophets, etc, and God's very great long term consequences on them and their need to corporately repent of it, which balances out that God loves them, wants them to repent, and wants to graft them back into the vine.
Thank you for this, Mike. I am horrified by the fact that the one issue that seems to be beginning to unite the right and the left is hatred of the Jews. And many of these haters call themselves Christian. I hope and pray that this video will be enough to pull some people away from hatred and into the grace of Christ.
I'm more worried about the hatred for Palestinians than the hatred for their oppressors. The most hateful people I know support Israel. Just ask any of them about Gaza and see.
@@jamesreed5678 Hatred isn't right for either side, but I haven't seen one supporter of Israels defense of themselves who actively hates palestinian people. They simply support a nations defense of themselves, which the Bible also supports. Nobody I know wishes to see people die, but unfortunately war is ugly. It always has been and always will be. That's just a fact. People die in war and they aren't always just soldiers. I don't wish for any to die, Jew or Palestinian. But, I support a nations right to defend themselves too. We should all remember that, though we as humans can gain much knowledge, we are not God. He is all knowing and we are not. Therefore, we should not attempt to make ourselves Him, and act as if we are all knowing. God knows the heart of mankind and the intent of mankind. We don't. We should pray for both sides involved.
Why do they make movies out of Hollyweird remove this passage, then?
Semitism is anti-Christian. You also misrepresented Luther.
The jews are our elder brothers (not in Faith) the same way Cain was Able's elder brother.
Hello Mike, I have a question: I keep hearing that some believers in judaism thinks the messiah will build a third temple. I searched in the bible and did not find "third temple" anywhere, but my guess is that there are prophecies that the messiah will build or rebuild a temple at some point. As christians, we believe Jesus did all that and more. and I am firm in my faith, but I wondered if you have already spoken about this or had any insight. does the bible ever mention a 3rd temple? am I just missing it? if so, wouldn't christians collectively be the third temple?
-Simon
The third temple isn't mentioned in scripture by that name. The third temple is deduced because of what is written in scripture. Jesus says we shall know its the end time when the Abomination of desolation sits in the temple and demands to be worshipped as God. The second Jewish temple was destroyed in AD70, so for this to happen a third temple MUST BE BUILT.
@@EofBrokenSilence Where does Jesus say this? I see that in Matthew 24 and Mark 13, Jesus speaks of the holy place, but do christians really know where that is? Many of the words that Daniel yearned to see are still rolled up and sealed for later. besides, I was particularly looking for prophecies that professors of judaism would listen to. sadly, I doubt they really care about what Jesus said.
Love this ❤
All Christians should oppose Judaism that rejects Jesus as the Messiah (clarifying, since Christianity is technically a sect of ancient Judaism.) Christians should never reject proselytizing to any human. Only if the person means Jews who openly reject Jesus wnen saying they oppose Jews, then it might be appropriate depending on the context. For example, in religious discussions Christians will say "Jews teach...which is wrong, because...." obviously, referring to practitioners of modern Judaism.
Christianity is NOT a sect of Judaism. This belief is based on the assumption that Judaism is the religion God established through Moses, and it's not. God established Torahism through Moses. Judaism is the religion of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Christ taught and practiced _Torahism_ not, Judaism. Christianity isn't related to Judaism any more than it's related to Hinduism.
Maybe there’s a longer video of this but it would be beneficial if you defined what you mean with “anti-semitism”. I mean people could watch some of your videos and call you a racist misogynist in today’s society, doesn’t mean that’s true.
If anti-semitism means criticizing the state of Israel, the fact that most of the richest and ungodly people are so called Jews, the biggest corn producers and websites with corn have Jewish founders and that Jews are persecuting Christians in Israel and funding Azerbaijan and their war against Armenia etc. etc. then yeah, I’m a anti-semite 🤷♂️ doesn’t mean they can’t come to Jesus
People who don't understand covenant theology still think that the Hebrews are God's chosen. They are not; they are the sons who said they would obey and later did not, they are the branches cut off to be replaced new ones, and their covenant has been made void by death so a new covenant could be made. Those who are not Christian (in spirit and truth) are not the covenant brides of Jesus.
Amos pronounced judgement against the enemies of Israel, then on Israel for their sins, yet the prophecy ends with Israel restored. Micah pronounced judgement on Israel, promises Israel restored, and ultimately pronounces judgement on the enemies of Israel. Currently, Israel is not right with God, but we can see the beginnings of a sea change in the nation. It's not good that they bankroll a communist regime, but that in no way justifies supporting the Philistines of Hamas.
Branches cut off? Why Paul wrote Romans 11 then countering your point?
First of all, Jesus words matter the most here. He said, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." So, I'll take Jesus own words first and foremost. Second, we cannot, or should not, attempt to make ourselves God. We are not Him. I say this because you call them the most ungodly people, but ONLY God knows the heart of mankind. Not us. Sure, we should condemn and stand against true evil when we see it, but, be careful, be wise, because with God, ALL things are possible. And we are not Him.
Thank you for your message. I will never give up Torah, but I appreciate the friendship of Christians. My father was Christian (Roman Catholic) and he always said that Jesus wanted to die, so how could anyone be upset at those who killed him?
In reality, we all killed Jesus. Our sin, humankind's sin, killed Jesus. I wouldn't say that as a human, He wanted to die, but instead He knew that it was necessary. It was what had to be. I also won't say it was good of those who called for His death, but again, humankind did that to Him with our sin anyway. The love of God and salvation is for all, not one or the other. God bless.
Because Jesus himself condemned those who didn't repent of it.
Revelation 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.
Have you read the Talmud? Not all Jews follow the Talmud but they are texts we should be familiar with.
They may not follow it directly, but that is their culture and shapes their behavior to this day.
The Talmud is the soul of the post-first century Jewish people, religious or not. And yes it is filled with blasphemy and hatred for Christ and Christians and non-Jews in general, but Christians are the guilty ones? Whose side is Mike on? See 1 John 2:22. Mike needs to convert to genuine Christianity and leave Judeo-Americanism behind.
The Talmud, the Quran shouldnt affect how you treat Jews, Muslims erc. These guys are lost and are in need of a ssviour!
No one cares, apparently...
@@Victoria_Loves_Jesus If Winger and charismatics actually loved Christ they would care, but they don’t. They are Judeo-“Christians”, attempting to blend Satanism with the worship of the One True God, just as the apostate Israelites during the days of the prophets attempted to blend Baal worship with the Law of God.
After these statements made by the Jews of the time. Jesus says Father forgive them for they know not what they do!
Jesus broke the Curse and legally squashed any charge raised against both them and the Romans too.
In any court of law if you forgive someone, dropping charges then there is no matter to pursue!
Question, in Luke we have the genology of Jesus which was necessary to prove he was a Jew and a descendant of David. How do we know if someone is jewish today? Is a geneology necessary?
There are no Old Covenant Jews left since God annihilated the apostates who did not convert at the preaching of Christ and His apostles 2,000 years ago. Judeo-“Christians” will never understand this because they either fear the power of the Jews or they worship antichrists (see 1 John 2:22 for the definition of an “antichrist”).
Jew is the ethnicity
Judaism is the faith
Christ is king.
All the disciples were not Jews but Christians!! Did they not ALL convert to Christ aka Christians?
They did not give up their Jewish identities when they believed in and followed the Jewish Messiah.
Most of the first Christians were Jews. In fact, all of the apostles were sent to other areas where Jews/Israelites lived specifically because they would have been aware of what the Law and the Prophets taught about the Messiah and His mission, and they needed to know that all of those prophecies were fulfilled by Jesus.
