Revisiting Christian Zionism

               This title is selected because I have written extensively in the past on the subject matter including my books Christian Zionism and the Scofield Reference Bible and The Israel Deception. My objective here is not so much to critically evaluate the doctrinal and prophetic heresies of Dispensational theology because that is covered extensively in my books. My intent in this writing will be more focused on the history of its origin, development and widespread acceptance in today’s religious world. I say religious because its doctrinal and prophetic conclusions are very wide of the mark of Biblical truth. It has completely engulphed and compromised that which is identified in today’s world as fundamentalist Christianity.

            This theological narrative had its origin with John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) an Englishmen with certain obvious intellectual acumen for he wrote extensively. Over several decades he drafted a totally new paradigm for interpreting the Bible.It came to be known originally as Darbyism but later after more refinement came to rest in the theological world as Dispensationalism.  He was enthusiastic about his new doctrines and traveled extensively in Europe to promote them.  He also made six trips to America and planted the seeds of his conclusions with evangelical preachers in the 1860s-70s. Many were affected and endorsed his teaching including such as Dwight Moody the well-known evangelist. As a very young convert with no spiritual or biblical background his theology was accepted by one Cyrus I Scofield. You will need to get my book to learn much more about Scofield including his history and character for that is not the subject matter here.We are focusing here on the creation of the Scofield Reference Bible and its long term effects on the Christian community since its original publication in 1909 and continuing even unto today.

            Cyrus Scofield pursued his ministry from 1879 until his death in 1921. He was awarded a license to preach only one year after his alleged conversion by the Congregational Church in Saint Louis, Missouri. After serving there he moved to Dallas, Texas and pastored a missionary church there for many years. He formulated his theological convictions from contemporaries who had been influenced by John Darby. He authored a Bible study correspondence course which became very popular both domestically and abroad. He developed a desire to prepare and publish a study Bible complete with massive foot notes and headnotes to promote his theological conclusions which were increasingly Zionist friendly. From Dallas he moved to New York where he met and befriended Samuel Untermeyer a very wealthy and influential Zionist Jewish attorney. They both were members of the Lotus Club in New York City for many years.

            Untermeyer was intimately involved in the budding Zionist movement and agenda which included in their long range plans the reestablishment of the nation-state of Israel. He also was closely connected to President Woodrow Wilson and he actually executed a bribe of Wilson based on the knowledge he had of an intimate affair involving Wilson. The bribe included a promise from Wilson that he would nominate a prominent Zionist to the Supreme Court. Wilson kept his promise later by nominating Louis Brandeis a Zionist Jew and head of the American Zionist Congress. The Zionists including prominent American and European activists were able to bring America into World War I using a promise from England that they would give Palestine to the Zionist Jews if they could successfully engage America in their war with Germany. They pulled it of successfully with the American traitor Woodrow Wilson and this resulted in the Balfour resolution at the end of the war. Now the Jews control what will eventually become the nation state of Israel after World War II (May 14, 1948).

            This all ties in with Untermeyer’s relationship with Scofield and his desire to get his dispensational and Zionist friendly Reference Bible published. Untermeyer also had connections and influence with Oxford University Press owned by Zionist interests. A perfect match was formed. The Zionist Jews could ask for nothing greater than to introduce a Trojan horse into fundamentalist Christianity favorable to the long term agenda of Zionism (the concept that a ‘chosen’ ethicality is to reign on earth for a millennium). The deal was stuck and powerful forces both financial and political were utilized to bring the Scofield Reference Bible to the market place in 1909. With unrestricted financial backing it went viral among evangelical Christians and eventually completely infiltrated Bible schools, seminaries and multiplied millions in the Christian community. The Scofield ‘Bible’ went through several revisions (1917, 1945, and reached its apex of deception with the 1967 edition.) This, of course was after the reestablishment of the state of Israel. Scofield died in 1921 so all of this activity was carried out by the owner of his reference Bible the Zionist Oxford University Press and its editorial committee. It literally went viral.

        The long term consequences of this gigantic fraud reach beyond comprehension. Heresy filled the pulpits and seminaries of America promoting a theological paradigm which completely compromised and neutralized the effect of a vibrant Christian testimony able to resist the works and deceptions of Satan. Multiplied tens of millions of professing Christians endorse, support and honor the resulting Zionist and terrorist state of Israel as a wonderful work of Gad and fulfillment of Biblical prophecy The Zionists have initiated multiple wars in the Middle East killing millions including Christians on behalf of Israel and they are applauded and supported by untold numbers of people claiming to be Christian. These wars are all about Israel. The apostasy existing in American Christendom owes much of its condition to the heresies perpetrated upon it by the Scofield Reference Bible and its Zionist sponsors. Christian reader if you are deluded and deceived  by this fraud  please obtain and read my books where sound doctrine and Biblical truth is clearly set forth in opposition to the Zionist agenda for word government and the emergence of Antichrist acting in harmony with and in support of the Israel deception.
