(Jesus to the Jews): You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him and keep his word. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.”
The Jews therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old! Have you seen Abraham?”
Jesus said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM.
Therefore they (the Jews) took up stones to throw at him,
Lots of hate mail from the “diversity and tolerance” crowd. No surprise. Hypocrite is a theological term. You know who it applies to.
The hate mail included death threats from people who consider themselves morally superior and intellectually enlightened. Liberal fragility is real. Jewish fragility is real. Makes White fragility look entirely made up.
I mean, who has the power? Ain’t folks like me.
What generates the hate? Mostly it is indoctrination from their religious cult and its leaders. They don’t like people who speak outside of the approved narrative. Dissidents get attacked. Not many speak up; people are afraid of the Jews.
The Word of God is eternal; it will be here after heaven and earth pass away. The story of Jesus and the Jews isn’t just some aberration for a moment two thousand years ago. The principles are eternal. And, yes, people are afraid of the Jews. But Jesus was not. And He wasn’t worried about offending them.
What offends Liberals and Jews? Here’s just a few:
Some have advised that I avoid certain topics so as “not to offend” because, ostensibly, we can reach people with the Gospel if we don’t offend them. Horse manure. The Church has pursued that policy for a hundred years.
The Pharisees have not left the scene any more than Christians have.
And the new Pharisees are just as anti-Christ as the old Pharisees.
The Jews accused Jesus Christ of being full of Beelzebul, being possessed of a demon, and casting out demons by the head demon. Jesus claimed He cast them out by the Spirit of God. Did the Jews blaspheme the Holy Spirit?
The Jews said Jesus was conceived in fornication by a Samaritan. Wrong. Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit in a virgin woman. Did they blaspheme the Holy Spirit?
Jesus said the Jews were sons of the Devil. Is that offensive? Is that anti-Semitic? Stop apologizing, Christian, for what Jesus Christ said. Some Christians would rather deny the Word of God than stand with the Rock of Offense.
Wake up, Church. Choose a side and be done with it. Either way. The hour is late.
Stay tuned.

Jewish Fragility refers to feelings of discomfort a Jewish person experiences when they witness discussions around race and theology. This may trigger anger, fear, guilt, and violence. Some Jews may become insecure when other people groups claim privileges that Jewish people enjoy.
If a Jewish person becomes defensive, a non-Jew may feel obligated to comfort the Jew. For example, some Christians comfort Jews by telling them they are “God’s children,” while some Europeans speak words establishing racial self-hatred. These non-Jews seek to unburden themselves from socially constructed sin accusations (racism or anti-semitism).
Manifestations of Jewish fragility commonly include accusing others of what they do themselves. These include, but are not limited to:
One manifestation of Jewish fragility was the reaction to Jesus Christ, who verbally chastised them for hypocrisy. As a result, the Jews used their power and influence (Jewish privilege) to have him executed.

Jesus and the Jews . . . the Jews accused Him who was conceived of by the Holy Spirit of being full of Beelzebul. Complete enmity between the Seed of the Woman and the Seed of the Serpent. Jesus Christ calls the Jews the sons of the devil and they call him full of the demons. Reflection on the unforgivable sin. Jesus as I AM.
No room at all for agreement between Judaism and faith in Jesus Christ.

The enmity between the Totalitarians and The Liberator. Using accusations to load people with guilt. Accusations as a means of totalitarian control. Jesus Christ — the Creator. The work of God. We will overcome the petty tyrants, legalists, and accusers to establish a Christian country of our own.
