Scripture Reading: II Timothy 3:3-5
Let's start with a word study. Contained in today's Scripture reading we find two words in bold type, when combined, constitute the race traitor. The opposite of unholy is holy and the Greek word for holy (as in “holy nation” in I Peter 2:9) is hagios (#G40) and physically means pure. The Greek word for unholy is anosios (#G462) and the judeo church has deracinated (removed the racial import) and given it an implied generic meaning of impious or wicked. What these impious race traitors in churchianity ignore in the same Strong's Concordance citation is a reference to #G3741 hósios, which says, “reverence for what should be hallowed – properly, utter disregard of what is sacred, i.e. willful (arrogant) disrespect of the things of God”. Christ told Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me, because you are not thinking about the things of God, but the things of men” Mt. 16:23. In other words, the things of man, which have an utter disregard for the things of God, are satanic and they affect us adversely. You are an adversary or satan of God if you're a traitor to Israel, because the people of God are the things of God that matter the most. Things have a cause and effect, blessings and curses. So naturally, the race traitor curses us and that's what Paul is warning us about; when the treason against true Israel happens, there will be “terrible times” and they may be pious, “having a form of godliness, but denying its power”, but in reality, they are “unholy” and “traitorous”.
