There exists on the American religious scene and
particularly in those who would identify themselves as evangelicals a pervasive
doctrinal paradigm identified as Christian Zionism. In order to understand its
contents and effects it is necessary that we first examine its roots. After that we will need to examine some of its tenets in light of the revealed truths
of Scripture. Then finally we will need
to briefly examine its effects in this very short summary. It is not possible
to cover the many details necessary to expose its many errors so for that
purpose I have written two books that will help you significantly to discover
and understand its broader content. They are The Israel Deception and Christian
Zionism and the Scofield Reference Bible available at the publisher Xlibris
Publishing/book store, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble all on the internet.
The
doctrinal paradigm for Christian Zionism was first set forth in the writings of
an Englishman named John Nelson Darby during the mid-nineteenth century. He brought his teachings and belief system
first known as Darbyism to America and it took hold with many over a period of
the several years and numerous visits Darby made to America. Notable among them
was a fundamentalist preacher who spent several years in teaching and refining
the doctrines which came to be known as dispensationalism. This was Cyrus I.
Scofield who was eventually able to obtain backing for
publication from Jewish owned Oxford University Press. His version of a ‘reference
Bible’ contained massive foot notes and head notes throughout endorsed,
influenced and promoted by its Zionist publisher. The numerous notes were for
the alleged purpose of explaining the content of the Scriptures based on this
new paradigm of interpretation. Space
does not allow me the detail needed to explain fully how that was accomplished
but with support Scofield was able to launch his ‘reference Bible’ in 1909 and
it went viral amongst those of evangelical persuasion. The Scofield Reference
Bible notes are extremely Zionist friendly as they identify the Jews as God’s ‘chosen people’ destined according to
the notes and doctrines of dispensationalism to inherit an earthly kingdom to
be reigned over by Christ from earthly Jerusalem after his second advent for a
period of a millennium. For over a century its doctrinal assertions have become
standard protocol with virtually millions of evangelicals in America and abroad
not to mention the multiplied millions who have died. The Scofield Reference
Bible has been reedited and reprinted numerous times over the century and been
the text book in most major seminaries and Bible schools established by its
evangelical proponents. It still shows Cyrus Scofield as its editor even though
he died in 1922. While many in today’s
evangelical world may have never seen a copy its doctrines are widespread and
generally accepted as truth preached and taught by its proponents
Let’s
take the briefest look at some of its major assertions and examine them in light
of the unedited Scriptures. Has God
chosen a people based on their ethnicity
to reign over the earth with Christ for a millennium? Is this a criteria added
to that of faith which qualifies a small number of alleged Jewish people at the
end of the age to inherit an earthly kingdom? “For they are not all Israel which are of Israel. Neither because they
are the children of Abraham are they all children; but in Isaac shall thy seed
be called. That is, they which are the children of the flesh, these are not the
children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.”(Rom9:6-8).
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is
neither male not female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be
Christ’s then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”(Galatians
3:28-29). “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything or
uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule,
peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.” (Gal.6:15-16) Note there are no natural distinctions of
any kind in Christ.
So are there to be two kingdom’s of God as the Christian Zionists
assert, one on earth for the Jews and one in heaven for the Church? This cannot
be possible for at the time of judgement in the day of the Lord at the end of
the age and after the resurrection (not
at the end of the millennium) the entirety of this present earth is to be destroyed. “But the day of the Lord will come as a
thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, and the earth also and the works
that are therein hall be burned up.”(II Peter 3:10-11) “And I saw a new havens and
a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed way and there
was no more sea.” (Rev. 21:1) It is impossible therefore that Christ and
the Jewish people are going to reign from earthly Jerusalem for the geography
of that location is to be utterly destroyed in judgment prior to the onset of
what is referred to as the millennium.
So is
the present day nation of Israel a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy with a
destiny to become the center of an earthly millennial kingdom? It cannot be !!
The inhabitants of that nation are primarily Ashkenazi
Jews which are only identified as Jews because they have accepted the
deceptions of Judaism’s Babylonian
Talmud. Those who are the actual seed of Abraham are Sephardic Jews and
there remains only a relatively very small number of them scattered around the
world.
I
could continue to make many more arguments in opposition to the tenets of
dispensationalism and its Christian Zionist proponents as well as the
corruption of the Scriptures by the Scofield Reference Bible, but if you cannot
see the truth based on the points made above then you probably would not
believe the complete exposure of the heresies contained in the paradigm even if
they were brought clearly to your attention.
They are covered in detail in my two books mentioned above.
Just
a few words need to be added as to some of the effects of this false paradigm. Multiple
wars of aggression, genocide and death of multiplied thousands of innocent people
have been perpetrated by Zionists and their lackey servants in America in the
past twenty five years. These have been
unjustified wars of aggression that were undertaken by America and her European
allies at the behest and in obedience to those who control America and who have
an agenda to fulfill in relation to the
current nation state of Israel. These
wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and elsewhere are largely supported by
evangelicals based on their doctrine concerning national Israel and its enemies
in the Muslim world. It constitutes a
massive deception due to their ignorance of the Scriptures doctrinally as well
as prophetically. These issues need to be understood.
