The Rise of Anti-Semitism

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

It is certainly not a surprise in the world we live in that hatred of Jewish people is on the rise. I say that, however, a part of me thinks it’s absolutely mad that we have forgotten the terrors of Nazi Germany so quickly. The Jewish people have a saying “never again,” speaking of the holocaust. Unfortunately never again happened on Oct. 7th 2023. I am not here to deal with that, we have spoken on that hideous attack with all its atrocities on many occasions.

The point of my essay today is to share the reason of this demonic hatred of a people that really are a bother to no one. They live their lives. They make the world better through their scientific and cultural activities. All they really want is to live in peace in their homeland, yes it is theirs from antiquity. Given to them by God to the Patriarch Abraham, passed down to Isaac and Jacob. In that same line we find our Savior Jesus Christ. Aw, now we are getting somewhere.

The pure demonic hatred is found from the beginning. From Haman, the Roman emperors, to Hitler and all points in between. It all started in the garden. It still flourishes today. The anti-christ spirit that lives in this world was spoken of in 1 John 1:18. It was alive then and it is on steroids today. The pure hatred brandied about on our college campuses by Marxist professors and students rivals the rise of Nazism in the 30’s in Europe. So it really is a sign of the times, but also a deep thread of evil that a sinful unrepentant world loves to soak in. Evil has to hate something or someone, and the Jews are an easy target.

Surprisingly even some Christian denominations have forsaken the Biblical command to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. To lift up and pray for a people who through them came the sure Word of God and our Messiah. God is not finished with Israel. The very fact that this small country bothering no one is under heavy attack military and economically is proof they are still a part of God’s plan. Replacement theology is a lie.

The backlash to this is the saying of the radical Islamist who declare boldly they are coming for the Saturday (Jews) people first then the Sunday (Christians) people next. Mark my words the anti-Christ spirt is targeting and will increase attacks on churches and Christians. We are already seeing this happen in Europe, Africa, and Canada. Not surprising. This so called religion of peace, demands to “convert or die.”

Hate Israel if you want, but if you do, you will be standing and fighting against Almighty God. I choose to stand with Israel. That doesn’t mean I agree with everything they do, but it does mean I want to be on God’s side. I stand with the Word! I stand with Israel!

Faith without Works

Faith without work cannot be called faith.  Faith that works is dead” (James 2:26), and a dead faith is worse than no faith at all. Faith must work; it must produce; it must be visible. Verbal faith is not enough; mental faith is insufficient. Faith must be there, but it must be more. It must inspire action. Throughout his epistle to Jewish believers, James integrates true faith and every day practical experience by stressing that true faith must manifest itself in works of faith.

Faith endurance trials. Trials come and go, but a strong faith will face them head on and develop endurance. Faith understands temptations. It will not allow us to consent to our list and slide into sin. Faith obeys the word. It will not merely hear and not do. Faith produces doers. Faith harbors no prejudice. For James, faith and favoritism cannot coexist. Faith displays itself and works. Faith is more than words; it is more than knowledge; it is demonstrated by obedience; and it overtly responds to the promises of God. Faith controls the tongue. This small, but immensely powerful part of the body must be held in check. Faith can do that. Faith acts wisely. It gives us the ability to choose wisdom that is heavenly and to shun wisdom that is earthly. Faith produces separation from the world and submission to God. It provides us with the ability to resist the devil and humbly draw near to God. Finally, faith waits patiently for the coming of the Lord. Through trouble and trial it stifles complaining.

Let us strive for the faith that James describes in his short book. James is the blue jeans theology of the Bible. Put your jeans on to strive for Godly faith.

Geert Wilders, head of the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV), on Friday responded to French President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement that his country would officially recognize “Palestine”.

In a post on X, Wilders sarcastically suggested that southern France could become the new Palestinian state.

“Here will be the new Palestinian State. Big parts of France are already islamic anyway,” wrote Wilders, alongside a map highlighting the southern part of France.

“Good luck Emmanuel Macron and France! Happy suicide! The Netherlands will close its borders immediately,” he added.

This is primarily done for public consumption in their own country. They need the Muslim vote. Most of the European leaders are cowards, especially the anti Semitic ones calling for a two state solution. Let Israel finish the job. Rh

U.S. Rep. Barry Moore: The ‘DIGNITY’ Act is a surrender to mass amnesty

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

U.S. Rep. Barry Moore | 07.31.25

After spending the last two years on the House Judiciary Committee battling Biden’s border crisis, I cannot stay silent while members of Congress bring forward the so-called “DIGNITY Act.” Despite its catchy name, this bill is nothing more than amnesty dressed up in buzzwords — and it’s an affront to every American who believes in law and order.

The “DIGNITY Act,” above all, rewards illegal behavior. This legislation creates a convoluted “Dignity Program” that welcomes illegal immigrants to stay in this country for seven years and eventually apply for permanent residency, while millions of law-abiding immigrants wait in line, playing by the rules. It also prevents Immigration and Customs Enforcement from enforcing many of the orders President Trump has given them.

That’s not dignity. That’s a betrayal of our immigration system and a direct incentive for more lawlessness at our Southern border.

Let’s keep America what our founders wanted. Immigration is a concept given to us by the elites who are sheltered by the conduct of those who come here for our benefits alone. Assimilation is mandatory! Learn the language, be proud of your new country, and you are more than welcome. The process of legal immigration must be adhered to. Let’s don’t let the elites and the one world government destroy our country Rh

Maxwell To Testify Before Congress

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Everyone wants to hear what Maxwell has to say.

With the Jeffrey Epstein case all over the news, disgraced British socialite and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has come back from the obscurity of a FCI Tallahassee cell to the spotlight again.

It’s been just a few hours since we learned that the DOJ is negotiating to have her testify on the whole Jeffrey Epstein controversy – and now there’s news from the US House of Representatives, as the Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee has just voted to subpoena Maxwell.

Republican congressman from Tennessee, Tim Burchett, moved to direct the panel to issue a subpoena for Maxwell to appear for a deposition – a motion which was approved by voice vote.

From Capitol Hill to Mount Zion: Huckabee’s Wake-Up Call to America

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Below is an article that tells us all we need to know about how far America has drifted from it’s moral foundation. Pray for our country! It is badly needed, we are so far gone only a genuine revival will ultimately save us. Rh

In the latest episode of The Jew and Gentile Podcast, Steve Herzig and I had the opportunity to speak with Ambassador Mike Huckabee, a longtime friend of the Jewish people and one of the clearest voices today on Israel and the Middle East.

Fresh off meetings in Washington, D.C. with President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Huckabee offered firsthand insights into discussions about the future of Israel in a new Middle East with the expanding reach of the Abraham Accords.

But it wasn’t the closed-door diplomacy that surprised him most—it was the streets of his own nation’s capital.

Twice, while walking through Washington, Huckabee was aggressively confronted by pro-Hamas protestors. “They recognized me, surrounded me, screamed at me,” he told us. “It made things so uncomfortable that about fifteen D.C. police had to intervene. That happened—not once—but twice.”

In a comment that startled many, Huckabee added, “I got to get out of this crazy town, Washington, and get back to Jerusalem, where I’m safe. People laughed—they thought it was a joke. I said, ‘No, I’m serious.’ I feel very comfortable and safe in Jerusalem. I do not feel that way in my own nation’s capital.”

Think about that. 

A former governor and presidential candidate—targeted and heckled in the heart of American democracy—feels safer in Jerusalem than in Washington, D.C. What does that say about the state of our national discourse? And more importantly, where does it point us as people who are Biblically minded?

It points us to Zion.

In the ancient days of Israel, the prophet Micah envisioned a time in the future when peace wouldn’t be legislated from the palaces of human power, but from the holy mountain of God.

Micah 4:1–4 reads, “In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and peoples will stream to it. Many nations will come and say, ‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways so that we walk in His paths.’ The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He will judge between many peoples… they will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up the sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Everyone will sit under their own vine and under his own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid, for the Lord Almighty has spoken.”

What Micah describes isn’t a political ceasefire—it’s transformation. It’s not temporary relief brokered by diplomats—it’s lasting peace ushered in by the Lord Himself.

And that’s the contrast Huckabee felt so keenly. Washington is a place of power, but not peace. It’s a city filled with tension, noise, protest, and confusion. But Jerusalem—despite being surrounded by enemies—holds a remarkable sense of clarity and calm for those who understand its Biblical significance.

Jerusalem is where God’s promises converge. It’s where His Word was written, His Son was revealed and resurrected, and His kingdom will be established. When Huckabee says he feels safer in Jerusalem, he’s not just making a statement about crime or politics. He’s articulating something deeper—a spiritual alignment, a sense that in Zion, God’s purposes are unfolding, even amid present conflict.

It’s no surprise, then, that supporters of Israel are increasingly targeted in major US cities and on American college campuses. We are watching in real time as standing with God’s people is met not with applause, but with opposition. But the ancient call still stands: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord.”

That mountain—Mount Zion—is where peace will come. Not Capitol Hill. Not the UN. Not any man-made institution. Peace begins with the Prince of Peace, and He has chosen Jerusalem as the city of His throne.

So as the noise of culture grows louder, and the pressures to compromise truth intensify, let us remember where true peace is found. It’s not in the fleeting treaties of men, but in the eternal promises of God.

Capitol Hill may pass laws—but Mount Zion will bring lasting justice. Washington may host summits—but Jerusalem will send out the Word of the Lord. And while ambassadors are shouted down in D.C., one day, nations will stream to Jerusalem to learn the ways of peace.

Just as the prophet Jeremiah foretold, the Holy Spirit writes God’s law upon our hearts—and in doing so, He directs our attention toward Zion, where the Word of the Lord will go forth and peace and justice will be made known.
