Scripture Reading: Ezra 10:2a

The story of how 4 families worked to destroy the Confederacy: August Belmont, Judah Benjamin, John Slidell and the d’Erlanger’s. This is the history of each family, how they are related to one another and how they are linked to the Rothschild's.

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 24:7

It is amazing how many things we were not told in our high school American History classes. We were being a little bit indoctrinated rather than educated. It has gradually, throughout the years, been more of an indoctrination rather than an education. I think that it was accomplished partly in high school but at the university it was a lot worse. I even had a Communist professor at one of the universities that I attended.

Irish slavery in America and the West Indies spanned for over 180 years. It occurred both before and during black slavery in the British colonies. In the 1600s, Irish slavery was paramount as England captured over one million Irish inhabitants and carted them off as slaves or indentured servants to help populate the new territories of Great Britain. And in addition, President Thomas Jefferson sent two of his newly created armed forces (Navy and Marines) to help end white slavery. But there is something very strange about this event. There is nothing of this episode in the American high school history books.

Scripture Reading:  Matthew 13:30

Who are the “wheat” and who are the “tares?” This parable says that both (wheat and the tares) have different fathers with the same mother; they are two different seed lines. And they have a drastic, different destiny.So, the identification of the “wheat” and “tares” is especially important in the theological interpretation of these verses of this parable.

But this Messianic web site, thejewishroad.com says nothing about this parable in their article, “Are Jewish People Who Believe in Jesus Still Jewish?” They don’t mention this lesson at all. They assume that all people are equal in the eyes of God in our times.

The purpose of this sermon is to dissect what this article presents and to investigate whether any Jews can be saved. It will also examine doctrines that many so-called “Christians” now believe and show where they cause contradictions in what the Bible says.

Annual Missouri Homecoming Conference 2024

Scripture Reading:  Ephesians 2:13

Who are the “ye” that are being addressed in this passage? It isn’t everyone on the earth, for they were at one time“far off” and were made “near” by the blood of Christ. The Bible has a lot of pronouns. What noun(s) are they representing?

Pastor Chuck Baldwin, who is usually pretty good in his commentary of world events, proved to me that he is way off in his interpretation of one of the important themes of the Bible. He commented on an interview that Christian Zionist Pastor John MacArthur had with Antichrist Zionist Jew Ben Shapiro. He claimed that the interview promoted genocide in Gaza. The article was presented on July 11, 2024.

Scripture Reading:  James 1:1 Who are the twelve tribes of Israel, that the half-brother of Jesus was addressing in his epistle which is in the New Testament, and where were they scattered abroad? Are their descendants still alive and well and somewhere on the earth? If they are still alive (and they are), what do they believe now? Do most of them still believe in God? Are a lot of them, or even some of them, members of Christian churches?

But if they are in Christendom, it is in a chaotic mess. There isn’t just one church, there are many churches with a multitude of opposing views. There is very little common doctrine in the many different denominations and various independent churches.

Let’s look at a few of these disagreements.

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 17:15

Who may the Israelites set over them;  an individual who is not their brother or a person who is their brother? The verse says that they mayest not set a stranger (foreigner) over them!

What is Kamala's racial make-up? What race is she? Is she black? The Democratic Party has for its presidential candidate an Irish/Hindu Indian (with maybe a little bit of black) with a husband who has committed adultery with his first wife and is antichristian (Jew). Her vice-president is a very liberal politician who is a lukewarm Lutheran, who has never read, and probably ever knew, of Luther’s book that he wrote near the end of his life.

Her opponent, Donald J. Trump, has his eldest daughter, who has converted to the Talmudic religion and is married to a member of an important antichristian family, Jared Kushner. His vice-president, JD Vance is married to a Hindu Indian and he has three mulatto children. What a complete mess. In a supposedly Christian Protestant nation!

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 4:1:

“Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.”

Who is talking and who is he talking to?  Moses is about to die, and he is giving his final instructions to God’s covenant people--Israel.  Moses was in the valley over against Beth-peor, near Mt. Pisgah.     

Israel had been freed from being slaves in Egypt but had wandered around the Promised Land for about 40 yearsdue to their sin of not believing what their LORD had told them.  Moses was 120 years old and was about to die.  He tells God’s people to hearken or pay attention to the statutes and judgmentswhich he was teaching them.

Scripture Reading: Judges 8:34

God told Gideon to send home 22,000 men from his army of 32,000 (Judges 7:1-3). And if reducing Gideon's army by two-thirds was not enough, our King then reduced the army further. He took it down to 300 men. From 32,000 to 300!  That is more than a 99% decrease!

The rest of Judges, chapter seven, details how Gideon’s army defeated the Midianites. First, Gideon received confirmation that Israel would be victorious. Then, his 300 soldiers went up against Midian with torches and empty jars, not with ordinary weapons. They broke the jars and held aloft the torches when Gideon blew the trumpet, creating such a confusion that the Midianites fought against one another. God delivered Midian into the hands of Israel, yet Israel won not because of its superior battle prowess but because the LORD made the Midianites use their swords against their own comrades—they killed themselves. Salvation of Israel from its enemies is of the LORD alone.

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 7:6:  “For thou art an holy [separate] people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto Himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.”

Who is this written about? It can’t be everyone who is alive in the world, for the LORD, the God of these people said, that He has chosen them“to be a special people unto Himself.”And if the LORD God chose a people to be special unto Himself, wouldn’t there be other peoples who are “un-special” unto Him?

One can learn much about God’s character by studying His various names. One of these names is “the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.” Early in the Scriptures, one can realize that God is a God of people and relationships. Understanding God’s covenants is critical to understanding God’s plan for Israel, His “special people unto Himself.”  The first thing worth mentioning about the Abrahamic Covenant is the fact that God ratified it with Abram alone. Even though Abram was the recipient of the Covenant and the representative of the Israel nation,
