I’m pretty much done with the current Mideast conflicts, but one thing that happened when Israel activated their entire media empire, is that the mask fell off Christian Zionism.
Trump & Friends are pushing Zionism hard… Steve Bannon is good example, or Jared Kushner if you want to hear it from the Nose’s mouth.
Clergy are pushing it, too… first some megapastors, then even Manosphere pastors… and then this from Vox Day’s blog:

I tried to run that down. It appears to be from this event:
Fury, sadness and solidarity at “Stand with Israel” rally in DC
h ttps://wtop.com/dc/2023/10/fury-sadness-and-solidarity-at-stand-with-israel-rally-in-dc/
By Nick Iannelli, 13 October 2023
An emotional, passionate crowd gathered at Freedom Plaza in D.C., about a block from the White House, on Friday afternoon to grieve together and show their support for Israel following the attack by Hamas militants nearly a week ago.
Some in the crowd had the Israeli flag draped on themselves like a cape, while others held signs that featured the Star of David or the words “Stand With Israel..
.I.ve been absolutely devastated by what happened,. said Jacque Simon. .I just wanted to be with other people who probably felt similar to me..
The rally was hosted by the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington.
American and Israeli flags flew next to each other, with the U.S. Capitol Building visible in the background.
Checking the JCRC’s announcement of the event, however…
h ttps://www.jcouncil.org/events/stand-israel
No Non-Jewish co-sponsors are listed. Since the people in the photo are acting like Jews and Christians weren’t invited (D.C. Mayor Muriel Brown and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore were), and they’re acting like Jews, they’re probably just Jews. Appropriating an American national monument the way they’ve appropriated the rest of USA’s governments.
Nothing a janitor with some whitewash can’t fix, heh. But Israel has been dog-whistling its supporters loudly enough that a lot of masks have dropped, and I’m astonished at how infiltrated the Evangelical Church has proven to be. The trail led all the way back to the Scofield Bible, which I had vaguely thought a heresy as dead as gnosticism. That is, an obvious lie kept alive by obvious freakjobs, and not a serious concern.
I took a close look at Scofield’s lies, and found out that he was the popularizer of dispensationalism, (the originator being the satanist John Darby,) which I had also vaguely thought was a stupid idea invented by fools and left in the dustbin of history.
h ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispensationalism
Dispensationalism is a theological framework of interpreting the Bible which maintains that history is divided into multiple ages or “dispensations” in which God acts with his chosen people in different ways.
Yeah, “Old Testament” and “New Testament”. Why invent a five-dollar word for that?
Dispensationalists use a literal interpretation of the Bible and believe that divine revelation unfolds throughout the Bible. They believe that there is a distinction between Israel and the Church, and that Christians are not bound by Mosaic law.
A typical definition even among Christian sources. “We take a literal interpretation of the Bible…”
Okay.
“…and believe the Church and Israel [the nation] are different…”
Okay.
“…and we don’t have to obey Moses.”
Duh.
So, how is that of satanic origin? What’s the fuss?
h ttps://www.compellingtruth.org/dispensationalism.html
“Dispensationalism” gets its name from the “dispensations” inferred in the Bible. They are innocence, conscience, human government, promise, law, grace, and the millennial kingdom.
Those are meritless, artificial divisions, but I say it without heat. They sound like the kind of meaningless arguments invented by ivory-tower Church leaders getting high off their own flatulence. See here, you experts, Christianity is so simple that illiterate peasants have been understanding it for hundreds of years. You’re making it hard just to look busy and sell books.
I hope you aren’t doing it to look smart.
Perhaps ironically, these seven timeframes are not literally named in the text, but they do accurately describe the different ways in which God has interacted with His creation.
Hmm… I’m getting a signal on what might be the problem…
A literal interpretation of the Bible may have its greatest and most divisive effect in the interpretation of what will happen in the end times. Dispensationalism holds that the church and Israel are two different entities, with whom God interacts in two specific ways.
Uh-oh. So far as the New Testament cares, God does not interact with nations at all. Nations still exist, yes, but so do smartphones and God doesn’t care about those, either.

Unlike Covenant theology, dispensationalism teaches that the church did not inherit the promises God made to Israel.
I think he means Moses’ promises of worldly success in return for keeping Moses’ rules, which nobody inherited.
Although both the church and Israel receive salvation through the sacrifice of Jesus…
No. You are Christian or you aren’t. Nationality has nothing to do with that… which is one reason I have concerns about the Christian Nationalist movement.
…the church is not a political/national entity and is not called to enforce God’s standards on a nationwide or worldwide scale. With this distinction in mind, God’s plan for Israel is yet to be fulfilled; Israel still has an essential part in the end times…
Satan’s plan is for Israel to rebuild Solomon’s Temple and resume the Mosaic sacrifices, so he can interrupt them in order to become a counterfeit Jesus.
God’s plan is, when that happens, to spare the 144,000 virgin men who reject that abomination, then subject the rest of Israel to His Unfiltered Apocalyptic Wrath, together with the rest of the unrepentant planet. Descriptions of subsequent civilization make no mention of any surviving Jews.
Between the two, I don’t see any role for the Church to play.
God’s attention is temporarily on the church, but will return to [the nation of] Israel when the church is raptured before the Tribulation.
Sooo, the Christian will inherit heaven after he helps the Jew inherit the earth? I’m getting the drift of what dispensationalism REALLY means and it is UGLY. No wonder it’s couched in such deceptive language that I missed it until now. I’m having flashbacks to those attractive young women who told me I’d make a great husband for somebody else. It ain’t about what they say; it’s about what they DON’T.
This next article is worth reading in whole, but is too long to quote fully.
The War on Christianity, Part II: The Abomination and Blasphemy of Christian Zionism
h ttps://jamesperloff.net/war-on-christianity-part-2/
Scofield.s foremost mission was to harmonize his Bible with Zionism. Central to this was distorting the promises God had made to Abraham (the ancestor of both the ancient Hebrews and Arabs) in Genesis 12:1-3:
“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”
Although the word “thee” is singular in the Hebrew, Scofield pulled a fast one, made it plural, and applied the blessing to modern Jews. He wrote in his notes:
.And curse him that curseth thee.” Wonderfully fulfilled in the history of the dispersion. It has invariably fared ill with the people who have persecuted the Jew.well with those who have protected him. The future will still more remarkably prove this principle.”
It’s true! Christ whipped those moneychangers’ asses, and look what happened to Him. Trust the Science!
Meanwhile, a lot of Christians are getting upset at the collapse of organized Christianity. Regardless of why God is permitting that, the very worst possible response is worshiping at the Synagogue of Satan until the Church of God gets its act together.
In Genesis 15:18, God described the land He was giving Abraham and his seed: “In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates.”
This demarks “Greater Israel.; the Euphrates and Nile rivers are the two blue stripes displayed on the Israeli flag. They enclose a star traditionally used in Satanism, with six points, six triangles, and a hexagon (six-sided) in the middle.666.
I’ve heard worse guesses.
Segue
h ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Israel
Joel Greenberg writing in The New York Times notes: “At Israel’s founding in 1948, the Labor Zionist leadership, which went on to govern Israel in its first three decades of independence, accepted a pragmatic partition of what had been British Palestine into independent Jewish and Arab states. The opposition Revisionist Zionists, who evolved into today’s Likud party, sought Eretz Yisrael Ha-Shlema.Greater Israel, or literally, the Whole Land of Israel (shalem, meaning complete).” The capture of the West Bank and Gaza Strip from Jordan and Egypt during the Six-Day War in 1967 led to the growth of the non-parliamentary Movement for Greater Israel and the construction of Israeli settlements. The 1977 elections, which brought Likud to power also had considerable impact on acceptance and rejection of the term.
And then, less than a year after Likud’s return to power in 2022, Greater Israel is the agenda once again, assisted by the holey aircraft carriers of the Judeo-Chumps.
Conspiracy theorists have suggested the blue strips of the Israeli flag represent the Nile and Euphrates as the boundaries of Eretz Isra’el as promised to the Jews by God according to religious scripture. This claim was at a time made by Yasser Arafat, Iran and Hamas. However, both Zionists and Anti-Zionists have debunked this.
Confirmation that we’re on the right path! snicker
End segue
Scofield also made it appear that the Bible prophesied a future return of the Jews to Palestine, in order to give the Balfour Declaration, and Israel’s eventual statehood, the illusion of “fulfilled prophecies.” His notes proclaimed:
“The gift of the land is modified by prophecies of three dispossessions and restorations . . . . Two dispossessions and restorations have been accomplished. Israel is now in the third dispersion, from which she will be restored at the return of the Lord as King under the Davidic Covenant.”
Third dispersion meaning the current, Christian world; Israel will be restored by the false Christ being revealed in the Temple, not the real Christ returning; at which time, “the Christians magically go away” aka Rapture (aka mass murder) and Israel gets to rule the world without suffering our existence.
WHY is that something that any self-described Christian would cooperate with? Moral inversion is coming full circle, to worshiping the devil in the name of God.
Back in my Protestant days, my naivete was off the charts. I actually owned a Schofield Bible and also actually looked at the notes. Oy vey!
“I.m getting the drift of what dispensationalism REALLY means and it is UGLY.”
Yes, it is.
This 19th-century invention is novel, thus, it is error. Full stop. Yet I just learned from my brother (who is NOT Catholic) that his non-denominational church is pro-Israel in this current conflict (so probably always do take that stance). Me so sad, because the error persists and is propagated by none other than Christians themselves. Everyone should be aware of Saint John Chrysostom’s teachings about ((juice)).
Anyway, on to my point: Gunner, I am continually surprised (pleasantly) at your exegesis. Your understanding of Christianity is way more Catholic than any other Protestant I’ve ever read. I pray you don’t interpret that statement as anything other than a compliment.
No offense taken and I’m happy to have you on my blog. That being said, have you noticed that you bring up Catholicism at every opportunity and out of context?
Scofield’s rapture? Wailing and gnashing is coming.
Worship of the false idol the Star of Remphan means doom and demise.
