Anti-Semitism (Poem)

Explained:

Anti-Semitism. Tribalism or racism?

A term that’s been seriously hijacked?

A basis for conspiratorial activism?

A spiritual plot shaping the ages since Adam?

What can we learn if this term is unpacked?

Could examination of this term …change the paradigm?

Like me, have you wondered why this expression,

Isn't about tribalism or just plain ole racism?

Or why this unique term is saved …for Jews alone?

Consult a dictionary definition,

You'll see anti-Semitic, is an anachronism,

Since ‘Semitic’ isn't only owned …by Jews alone! ¹

Like all tribal or racial groups, Jews have long suffered,

Prejudicial persecutions of one kind or another.

Ditto with ethnic and faith groups …of every kind!

So what’s unique in that with which Jews are encumbered?

The answer to this key question was l-o-n-g ago uncovered,

In a Bible story that’s still on The Lord’s Mind.

Exposed:

The story is of a ‘woman’ in labor with a child,

A male Who one day would rule the entire world.

And ready to devour the babe, an evil spirit leader,

Who from his top leadership position had been exiled,

And as a result, down to Earth had been hurled.

After the babe’s birth, to the wilderness the woman escaped.

Into Heaven her babe was caught-up.

Into the wilderness, the deposed leader threw-up,

Much water ‘like a flood’, the woman to wallop.

Unsuccessful, he was so distraught,

That he turned his attention to the saints to screw-up,

Till when by the (grown-up) babe, he would be locked-up!

Further details of this story, so retrospective,

Are found in Revelation chapter 12,

About how the ‘woman’ escaped her tormenter,

And about Heaven’s and Earth’s responses, protective.

I urge you into this chapter to delve.

I’ll summarize it for …un-discerning readers. ;o)

The ‘woman’ is Israel, and the babe is Jesus.

The deposed leader is satan who led a coup in Heaven,

And was cast out with his …‘coup associates’.

The suffering of Israel has since been grievous,

For being chosen long ago as The Lord’s …‘birthright nation’.

Thus Jews and the saints are satan’s top targets!

he especially tempts and persecutes those whom Jesus favors.

So-called anti-Semitism is just one of his tools.

When he can’t strike out at Jesus, Whom he hates with a vengeance,

It’s His ‘birthright nation’ and His ‘future bride’, the saints, that he stirs, ²

Using folks just like illicit drug dealers use ‘drug mules, ³

Folks who bite his ‘hate Israel and saints’ baits …with imprudence.

Envisioned:

So-called anti-Semitism might manifest in full force,

During two major pending, predicted, events:

The first is when many Jews will hasten to Israel,

As across the world, The Lord’s tribulation plagues will burst forth.

Isaiah and Zechariah this point accent.

With the saints then raptured, for the plagues, will Jews be blameful?? ⁴

The second is when the world wakes up and realizes,

During these plagues, Israel …was well protected,

Due to what I call The Goshen Effect. ⁵

Reactions Ezekiel 38 summarizes:

Pretext to war, five nations are then attracted,

Not knowing these nations …The Lord will wreck!!!

Enjoined:

In the ‘nearing future’, so-called anti-Semitism,

Will be un-thought of, no rancor,

Replaced with a ‘fawning favoritism’ of Jews …worldwide!!!

With The Lord God on Earth, in His Messianic Kingdom,

Folks then will curry His favor.

Rest assured, they will do their best with Jews …to be allied! ⁶

Anti-Semitism. Tread carefully around this term.

Understand its dictionary meaning, lexically.

Perceive the pitfalls therein, spiritually.

Then ponder this particular point that I now affirm:

For His ‘birthright nation’, The Lord has …strong affinity.

He will judge its ‘rights’ and ‘wrongs’...assiduously! ⁷

¹ Anachronism - the state or condition of being chronologically out of place

  Semitic - of, relating to, or constituting a sub-families of the Afro-Asiatic language family that includes, Amharic, Arabic, Aramaic and Hebrew

(Merriam-Webster Dictionary)

² Biblical references to 'saints' are to spiritually born-again people, per John 3:1-21. Also see: Bride of Christ, Wikipedia, for two interpretations of this concept.

³ See: Mules (smuggling), Wikipedia

⁴ See: Isaiah 26:20, 49:17 and Zechariah 10:10. See also: The Coming Lame Blame (Poem). Especially note the prediction Jesus made in Matthew 24:9 that all nations will one day hate Jews! 

⁵ See: The Goshen Effect (Series) and also: Booty, Pre/Post Millennial Reign (Series). Learn how a very similar scenario will REPEAT sometime after The Millennial Reign. While The Bible details the first War of Gog and Magog, the second one is only mentioned in three verses - Revelation 20: 7-9! Sounds like, by then, these very effective demons might be promoted to exert global influence.

⁶ See: Numbers 14:21, Isaiah 11:9, 49:22-26, 60, 61, Habakkuk 2:14, Micah 4:1-3, 7:16-20, Zephaniah 3:9-20, Zechariah 14:14, Malachi 1:11&14. How's that for confirmations of such a glorious day?? This will happen AFTER The Lord, during the apocalypse, will have made humans very rare upon the Earth, thus subduing apocalypse survivors. 

⁷ Assiduously - showing great care, attention and effort, marked by careful un-remitting/incessant attention or persistent application
