This message is a long one, concerning the truth about Israel, the Chosen of God, and the curse that Israel faces until the time of refreshing. This curse that I speak of is not attributed to the Crusifiction of Jesus but on the contrary, its the on-going curse that the Israeli people have lived with from the old Testament and will live under until the time of Refreshing in the Book of Revelations.

There are two ways which the enemies of Israel have historically sought to  destroy them. The  first is by physical annihilation; the most recent  attempt being the Holocaust.  The second is through cultural assimilation.(Rabbi Kalman Packouz )

Mal 3:9  Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Gal 3:10  For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. (a.c.)

The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido  Church is an Oriental Orthodox church in Ethiopia that was part of the Coptic Church until 1959, when it was granted its own Patriarch by Coptic Pope Cyril VI. The only pre- colonial-Christian church of sub-saharan Africa,  it claims a membership of  close to 36  million people worldwide, and is thus the largest  of all Oriental Orthodox  churches.

Jerome notes the existence in the 4th century  of a Christian  sect in Syria called the Ebionites who still observed the Mosaic Law, thus  suggesting at  least some Christians may not have believed in the  salvatory qualities of the Passion The Didache doesn't have this concept. The E.O , who claim to be the only church  free of Marcionism , still observe some Mosaic Law.

Purim is the annual celebration of  our physical survival. Hanukah  is the annual celebration of our spiritual  survival over the many  who would have liked to destroy us through cultural  assimilation.
                                                                                                                                    This message is in response to a reply, of a message I have written, “The Sins of Our Children”.

Pro 1:2-3;  To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; I am an energetic supporter of Israel and Her People.

Quote: (This is  how hatred  gets spread. It is not a place to spread anti-Semitic hatred that the Jews are  a cursed  people.

The very fact that you used the Jewish  people as an  example of a cursed nation displays the  anti-Semitic views and hatred  in your heart. I mean every word  of this, and I am shocked at your statements. I  lost almost my  entire family in the Death Camps of Nazi Germany because of  statements  and views just like this.)Un-quote.

What is a curse?

An appeal or prayer for evil or misfortune to befall  someone or something. The evil or misfortune that comes in  or as if in response to such an appeal.
One that is accursed. A source  or cause of evil; a scourge. A profane  word or phrase; a swear-word. Ecclesiastical. A censure,  ban, or anathema. To  invoke evil or misfortune upon; damn.

Curses in the Bible not only include Israel but also the gentile race of people.  The prophets were strong in denunciations of all iniquity, perverseness, and in announcing the curse of God which would certainly follow. It is often used in contrast with “bless” or “blessing” (Deu_11:29). When a curse is pronounced against any person, we are not to understand this as a mere wish, however violent, that disaster should overtake the person in question, any more than we are to understand that a corresponding “blessing” conveys simply a wish that prosperity should be the lot of the person on whom the blessing is invoked. A curse was considered to possess an inherent power of carrying itself into effect.

The Bible, Old and New Testaments, are filled with curses from God on the Children of Israel for their disrespect for God and His Laws. This is what we are going to address.

The House of Israel will be Saved, according to Scripture. They will accept Jesus as Lord and Christ. The Israeli people are our Brothers in spirit. The entire Christian Community must support and Love Israel. For we are the wild branch that God speaks of in scripture. We don't boast over our position with God. For we can be removed as fast as we were added. Here is one example of a Curse on people that have asked for one.

Mat 27:25  Then answered all the people, and said, “His blood be on us, and on our children.” Darby states; “The prophecies of the Psalms are fulfilled in His Person, by means of those who little thought what they were doing. At the same time, the Jews succeeded in becoming to the last degree contemptible. Their King was hung.

They must bear the shame in spite of themselves. Whose fault was it? But, hardened and senseless, they share with a malefactor the miserable satisfaction of insulting the Son of God, their King, the Messiah, to their own ruin, and quote, so blinding is un-belief, from their own scriptures, as the expression of their own mind, that which in them is put into the mouth of the unbelieving enemies of Jehovah.”

Who Killed Jesus?

All did. Jews and Gentiles. The Jews supplied the reason and the gentiles carried it out. My messages are never anti-Semantic, nor do I downgrade the Jews, but on the contrary, I Love and Pray for the House of Israel. We, as gentiles, must understand how we became a people under the sight of God.

Learning from the scriptures, the rejection of Christ by the Israelie people and Gods acceptance of the Gentile race as a new people under His protection. end pt.1.
