Die Nuwe Galasiërs ®

Jer. 31:31 & die Send Brief aan die Galasiërs: 3:1:"O, Onverstandige Galásiërs, wie het julle betower‐?" Jer. 31:31: "Kyk, daar kom dae, spreek die HERE, dat Ek met die huis van Israel en die huis van Juda 'n nuwe verbond sal sluit; nie soos die verbond wat Ek met hulle vaders gesluit het op dié dag toe Ek hulle hand gegryp het om hulle uit Egipteland uit te lei nie‐ "

Ons sien in die huidige Midde Ooste gebeure dat die verhoog opgestel word vir die profetiese vervulling van Sagaria 12&13 vir die Groot Verdrukking (Die benoudheid van Jakob in Jeremia 30) en die opkoms van die Antichris en die Wederkoms van die Here Jesus. Terselfdertyd sien ons ook die vervulling van Paulus se profetiese voorspellings in Romeine 11, die groot hoeveelheid Jode wat tot bekering kom en 'n herontdekking van baie Evangeliste met betrekking tot die Hebreeuse oorsprong van die Christelike geloof. Met betrekking tot hierdie herontdekking word die nie? Joodse Christene in Romeine 11 deur die Woord van God gewaarsku om nie te roem teen Israel, die natuurlike takke nie en waar Joodse gelowiges gewaarsku word om nie op nie?Joodse gelowiges neer te sien nie. (Rut 2:15, Hand. 15:13?19)

In die Messias, Jesus Christus is ons Een Nuwe Mens soos in die geval van kulturele verskille tussen die natuurlike Jode en die ingeënte nie?Joodse takke of soos die sosio?ekonomiese verskille tussen 'n slaaf en 'n vry man, of soos waar biologiese en emosionele verskille tussen 'n man en 'n vrou nie geestelike verskille verteenwoordig nie. Ons het almal net Een Redding, Een Redder, Een Belofte, Een Bybel, Een Gees en Een Ewige Eindbestemming. (Gal. 3:28)

So, nou is in die Here Jesus die gebonde slawe vry diensknegte en die vry mense is nou die Here se gebonde diensknegte. Die vrou in Christus is nou saam met haar man 'n mede erfgenaam (1 Pet. 3:7) en gelowige Heidene is mede erfgename saam met Israel. (Ef. 2:11?14)

Soos wat ons nog altyd gesê het volgens Jeremia 31:31 was die Nuwe Verbond met Israel en die Jode gesluit en nie met die kerk nie. Die kerk is die geestelike onafgebroke voortsetting van Israel, 'n voortsetting van die getroue oorblyfsel waarin gelowige nie?Jode ingeënt is, maar die kerk het nie Israel letterlik vervang nie. Gelowige nie?Jode is ingeënt terwyl ongelowige Jode wat Yeshua hulle Messias verwerp het afgesny is van hulle eie Olyfboom, maar wat weer ingeënt kan word wanneer hulle Jesus Christus aanneem. (Rom. 11:7?24) Maar soos wat ons sien in die profesieë van Sagaria, Jeremia, die Olyf Berg Rede, Daniël, Openbaring en in die eskatologie (Die eindtye) materiaal in die Send Briewe, wat besig is om in vervulling te kom, is daar die verwarring en misleiding waarvan God nie die outeur is nie.

Ons het in die verlede artikels uitgestuur waar ons gewaarsku het teen hierdie vervanging of "In die plek van" teologie en ook die Calvinistiese verbonds teologie (wat die Nuwe verbond afmaak deur valslik te leer dat God net een Verbond met Adam en een verbond met Abraham gesluit het, en verder maak

hulle ook aanspraak dat die kerk nou Israel is. Ons het gewaarsku teen die Post Millennium bewegings, (as Satan nou al reeds gebonde is, wanneer het die 1000 jaar van vrede dan begin, en wie laat hom kort kort uit?) gemeng met die charismania van die "Latter Day Reign / Joel's Army ?Manifest Sons"? hiper pinkster beweging van Christen Anti Semitisme van die "Identiteit" bewegings, en die Christelike anti Sionisme beweging van Rick Godwin, Bryn Joners, en die pro Arafat Anglikaanse Biskop van Jerusalem wat nou onlangs teen Israel in die David Watson's St. Michael Le Belfry in York gepreek het. (Wat nou ook, heel voorspelbaar, deel geword het van die moeras van die Alfa Kursus ekumeniese, Toronto misleiding.) Ons het gewaarsku teen die ontkenning van die Joodsheid van Jesus deur die Elim beweging, waar beweer word dat die Here Jesus geen Joodse bloed het nie, wat deur George Canty in 'n Elim blad geskrywe is. (Net soos in die geval van die St. Michael Bat in Le Belfry, Elim se vervalste goue tande fiasko van die geld predikers wat nog steeds probeer om John Arnott se Toronto "herlewing" weer op die been te kry.) In die ander uiterste sien ons 'n samewerking tussen David Brickner, Tuvya Zaretsky & Jews For Jesus, en John Ross & Christian Witness to Israel, en Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum en Ariel, en ander wat betrokke is om te sien dat Jode tot redding kom en wat waarsku teen hierdie bewegings wat Jesus van die Jode weghou.

Ons waardeer Arnold Fruchtembaum se brief waarin hy verklaar dat die aksies van die Ebenezer fonds onbybels is en dat dit nie van God af kom nie, en soos wat die skandale weereens die Internasionale Christelike Ambassade in Jerusalem bloots ry, het die nuwe leier? Malcom Hedding 'n band gemaak waar hy leer dat Jesus nooit gekom het om te sterf nie, maar dat Israel eenvoudig tot wedergeboorte kan kom sonder dat die Here Jesus na die Kruis toe moes gegaan het. Maar die Here Jesus sê Self met betrekking tot Sy Dood en opstanding: "Vir hierdie rede het Ek gekom." (Om Jesaja 53 en Daniël 9 ens. in vervulling te bring om so Redding moontlik te maak.) Romeine 6 stel dit duidelik dat vernuwing tot redding onmoontlik is sonder die dood van die Here Jesus. Malcom Hedding, (net soos die ICEJ stigter Jan Willem Van der Hoven) is 'n totale ketter. Soos wat Jer. 31:31 verklaar was die Nuwe Verbond met Israel gesluit en die twee verbond idees wat daarop aanspraak maak dat die Jode gered kan word sonder die Nuwe Verbond is 'n leuen van Satan. Diegene wat Israel nie na die Nuwe Verbond toe lei nie is besig om 'n sosiale en politieke evangelie te verkondig en volgens die Skrifte is dit 'n valse evangelie.

Die Nuwe Dilemma

Maar nou het ons 'n bedreiging vir God se doel met Israel en die Jode.

Die vervanging beweging, anti? Sioniste, anti Semitisme, die Identiteit beweging, geïnspireerde Ruchmaniete, (Aho, Dillen, Howard & Buester) het 'n nuwe wapen teen Joodse gelowiges wat hulle God gegewe Joodse identiteit wil behou, en dit is ironies dat die wapen kom van 'n kombinasie van sekere Joodse gelowiges en verjoodse Heidene uit die ekstremistiese sy van die Messiaanse beweging. Ons het gewaarsku teen nomianistiese (sagte wettiese) artikels van die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste soos: "Satan's Seduction of The Hebrew Roots Movement", en "Why I Do Not Accept The Jerusalem School of Synoptic Research."

Die laaste was geskrywe as 'n kompliment aan Andrew Gould vir sy artikel oor sy twyfelagtige en onbevestigde aansprake van Bivin en Blizzard met betrekking tot die Hebreeuse verbintenisse met die

Evangelies wat ondersteun word deur die gewese Rabbiniese geleerde David Flusser en die Roomse Katolieke skrywer Joseph Francovic)

Daar bestaan geen Manuskrip bewyse vir hierdie spekulasie nie, die argumente is verdraai en foutief en die enigste historiese verwysing uit die tyd van Hegisippus in die voor apostoliese / vroeë patristiese era van Mattheus se Evangelie wat oorspronklik in Hebreeus was. As dit waar is kon dit heel waarskynlik eenvoudig net Hebreeuse dialek van Aramees gewees het.

Daar is 'n misleide element in die Heidense Kerk wat vanselfsprekend heel ongemaklik is met wat hulle sien as 'n verwronge Christelikheid van die kontemporêre kerk in die ekumeniese eeu soos die Toronto geld predikers en die verhewe kritici in reaksie vir 'n begeerte om terug te keer na die oorsprong van die Christelike geloof wat Bybels en histories 'n primêre Joodse geloof is. Ongelukkig het hulle tot 'n verdraaide slotsom gekom dat enige iets wat Messiaans klink reg moet wees, terwyl dit 'n feit is dat daar baie mistastings is in baie takke van die Messiaanse Beweging soos wat ook die geval is in ander komponente van die Liggaam van Christus.

Een spesifieke populêre uitdrukking wat ons persoonlik gehoor het is die gebruik van David Stern se Joodse Nuwe Testament en sy "Volledige Joodse Bybel." (Asof daar enige ander is.)

Terwyl ons 'n ruk gelede Mnr. Stern se boek: "Restoring The Jewishness of The Gospel" gepromoveer het, is Mnr. Stern se boek: "Messianic Manifesto," waar 'n oproep gedoen word vir 'n Messiaanse Sanhedrin wat 'n halakik (Wettiese Rabbiniese Joodsheid) besluite vir Joodse gelowiges, is 'n te belaglike voorstel om enigsins iets daaroor te sê.

Terwyl Mnr. Stern se boek, die Joodse Nuwe Testament, 'n goeie boek vir naslaan werk is, is dit ook die slegste parafrase uit die oorspronklike Grieks wat ek nog gesien het. Sy mis?interpretasie van Efesiërs 5 is so absurd dat nie eens die Jehovah se Getuies so ver sou gegaan het in hulle hoogs verdraaide sogenaamde "New World Translation" nie.

Maar ten spyte van dit is daar baie naïewe Christene wat baie bly is dat hulle nou ook 'n onvervalste oorspronklike "Joodse Nuwe Testament" het, maar hulle weet nie, en baie wil nie weet nie, dat dit 'n korrupte verstaling is nie.

Dieselfde reaksie word waargeneem onder baie Suidelike Baptiste en ander groepe wat in 'n reaksie teen hierdie oorstrominge van dwaal lering in die kerk terugval na die teologie van die Hervormers met al die dwaal lering soos die staking van die Heilige Gees Gawes en hiper Calvinisme, (en ook die vervanging denke) omdat hulle dit sien as die diametriese teenoorgestelde van charismania. In plaas daarvan om dwalinge met die Waarheid reg te stel, word dwaling met 'n ander dwaling vervang, 'n teenoorgestelde uiterste.

Dieselfde verwronge en onbybelse redenasies vind plaas wanneer mense reageer teen super sensasionisme (Die vervanging teologie) van die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste. In die laaste paar jaar het die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste nuwe hoogtes bereik in hulle fiktiewe geloof met betrekking tot die Godheid van Jesus, wat ook in sommige gevalle verwerp word. Soos in gevalle waar in hulle konferensies

Joodsheid opgehemel word in plaas van Jesus Christus wat in die Skrifte beklemtoon word. Joodse gelowiges gaan nie na konferensies waar daar aan hulle vertel word hoe om Jode te wees nie (gewoonlik word hierdie soort byeenkomste gelei deur mense wat niks van die Bybel af weet nie. (Kokke wat preek.)) Jode weet hoe om Joods te wees, net soos wat Afrikaners weet om Afrikaners te wees. Hulle het dissipelskap en blootstelling, net soos elke ander gelowige, aan die Skrifte nodig om te weet hoe om volgers van hulle Messias Yeshua te kan wees. Niemand argumenteer oor ongedwonge onderhouding van Joodse tradisies nie, dit is opsioneel en 'n saak van persoonlike keuse en kultuur (Rom. 14:4?5 / Kol. 2:16?18)

Daar kan sekere voordele wees in die onderhouding van Joodse tradisies, soos vir 'n Evangelisasie strategie om die Jode te bereik, (1 Kor. 9: 20) maar nooit is mense geroep om hulle kultuur prys te gee om gelowiges in Jesus Christus te word nie, in teendeel, ons word beveel om nie ons identiteit te verloën nie. (1 Kor. 7:18). Meer nog, Joodse rituele wat in Christus vervul is word herhaaldelik in die Nuwe Testament gebruik as 'n verduideliking van Bybelse leerstellings, (1 Kor. 5:7?8 / Heb. 9: 1?22) en in ooreenstemming met Bybelse en Apostoliese tradisie sal hierdie onderhouding 'n blywende Bybelse basis wees om die Nuwe Testament te verstaan en te openbaar.

Dit was post apostolies en post Bybelse patristiese tradisie van die kerkvaders, soos die anti Semitiese John Chrysostom wat eerste hierdie dinge teen gestaan het, maar die Nuwe Testament doen dit nie. Inderdaad het Paulus geskrywe: "Alle dinge is ons geoorloof maar nie alle dinge is tot stigting nie?" 'n Joodse gelowige wat vark eet, terwyl dit geoorloof is, mag dalk nie tot nut wees van sy of haar se getuienis nie wanneer daar aan Jode getuig word nie, aan wie deur rabbi's vertel word dat gelowige Jode hulle Joodsheid verlaat het. Vark of skulpvis is nou "kosjer" (rein) voedsel maar dit kan iemand se getuienis laat skade ly net soos wat iemand se getuienis kan skade ly as hy die Nagmaal met wyn neem as hy dit aan 'n iemand in 'n Keltiese kultuur bedien waar alkohol misbruik 'n groot probleem is. Maar hierdie onderhouding het verpligtend geword (bv. vir iemand wat 'n lid wil wees in 'n Messiaanse vergadering), of dit word gesien as 'n middel tot heiligmaking in en of van hulleself en so kom mense weer onder die Wet waarvan Christus ons vrygekoop het. Diegene wat iets verkeerd vind in voedsel wat nie kosjer (rein) is nie word deur die Bybel geïdentifiseer as: "swak in die geloof" Dit is 'n dwaasheid om byeenkomste te hou en aan Jode te vertel hoe om Jode te wees, en dit is nog 'n groter dwaasheid om aan nie?Jode te vertel hoe om Jode te wees terwyl ons nou ook sien hoedat Heidene onder die Wet gebring word.

Daar is 'n Messiaanse groep (en die Israel visie) in Suid Afrika wat by Heidense volwasse mans aandring om die Joodse besnydenis te ondergaan. Sommige verjoodse Heidene soos die Israel Hawkes trek aan soos ortodokse Joodse rabbi's en neem deel aan 'n hoogs schismatiese geloof met okkultiese afmetings wat glo dat dit verkeerd is om Yeshua Jesus of God te noem in plaas van YHWH.(Yahwe) Dit is so dat in ons Bybel vertalings die HERE (LORD) YHWH, in die oorspronklike Hebreeuse teks is, maar in die Nuwe Testamentiese manuskripte word die Aramese term? Mar, wat deur die Here Jesus Self gebruik is, en die term "kurios" (Here) toegepas. As die Nuwe Testament nie 'n probleem het om YHWH ?"Here" te noem nie, hoekom moet ons?

Satan se eerste poging om die Kerk te mislei was nie om dit te verheidens nie, (dit het later deur sommige van die kerk vaders gekom.) soos wat ons sien in die Nuwe Testament, was sy eerste pogings om die Kerk te mislei deur om dit te Judafiseer, terug te bring onder die wet.

Die Roomse Katolieke priesterorde, Calvinistiese verbond teologie, A? millennium Calvinistiese herbouers, die Roomse Miss en die Sewende Dag Adventiste is almal voorbeelde van 'n Judafiseerde Christendom, en nou het ons die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste.

Hierdie dwaling, 'n wesenlike terugkeer na die Boek Galasiërs, word gebruik om die anti Messiaanse retoriek aan te vuur van die vervanging denke waarteen ons in ons artikel "Wagters wat nie wagters is nie" gewaarsku het. (Dit is nog steeds op ons webwerf)

In die verlede was dit maklik om die vervanging denke soos die Ruchmaniete te weerspreek. Die Ruchmaniete is volgers van die idees van Peter Ruchman in samewerking met Gail Riplinger in hulle ondersteuning van die King James alleen ekstremistiese beweging, met die "White Supremacist Identity Movement" geloof. Sommige van hierdie beweging is altyd gewillig om leuens te vertel om hulle doelwitte te bereik in die verspreiding van anti Joodse neo Nazi's propaganda in die kerk (dinge soos dat die Jode 'n ander DNA samestelling het as ander mense, en die idee van 'n Joodse sameswering om die Christen kerk oor te neem, en die verdwaalde idee dat net "Jode" die Bybel kan verklaar omdat hulle 'n ander DNA samestelling het.) Toe Rick Godwin en Bryn Jones (voorbokke van die Toronto dwaling) 'n gety van Christen en anti Sionisme aangevuur het onder die Restourasie ekstremistiese charismate, het Ruchmaniete soos Aho, Buester, Howard en Dillen, wat deur rassiste en die anti Semitiese "Balaam's Ass" webwerf beïnvloed is, waar die Identiteit Beweging geloof verpak is as 'n sogenaamde Christelike onderskeiding, met 'n uitgebreide tirade teen Messiaanse Jode uitgevaar, maar die vergete oorsprong van hulle propaganda en hulle algemene Bybelse verontagsaming beteken dat hulle nog nooit baie ernstig was teenoor God se doel met die Kerk in verhouding met Israel nie.

Wanneer hierdie mense Skriftuurlik en logies weerlê word dan haal hulle Skrif gedeeltes buite woord verband aan (Dieselfde wat Satan in Mat. 4 gedoen het.) en probeer dan wegkruip agter afgesaagde uitdrukkings. Wanneer enige persoon na die Nuwe Testament in verband met gelowige Jode as die natuurlike takke verwys en die praktiese voordele om deel te wees van die Verbonde, en om die Godspraak te verstaan (Rom. 3:1: "Wat is dan die voordeel van die Jood?") Of wat is die nut van die besnydenis? ) Dan reageer hulle teen die bestaan van die Messiaanse Jode op die selfde wyse as Christen feministe wanneer hulle probeer om vroue predikers te regverdig en ook dieselfde Skrif teks verdraai en buite Skrif verband probeer toepas. Hierdie Skrif teks is onvermydelik Galasiërs 3:28: "Daar is nie meer Jood of Griek nie, daar is nie meer slaaf of vry man nie, daar is nie meer man en vrou nie; want julle is almal een in Christus Jesus." Die vraag is: Kan mans babas kry? Het die instelling van slawerny nie in die jare van die eerste eeu se kerk bestaan nie? Die tydelike verskille bestaan nog almal, die teks in sy konteks praat van geestelike verskille wat in Christus verbygegaan het. Om nou te beweer dat Jode nie meer in die Liggaam van Christus bestaan nie is om te beweer dat vroue ook nie meer bestaan nie, of dat Paulus verkeerd was toe hy instruksies aan Christen slawe gegee het (1 Kor. 7:21?22) omdat niks bestaan het nie.

Die nuwe gety van kettery onder hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste oorskry alles, vanaf die ontkenning van die Godheid van Yeshua tot finansiële skandale wat die Israeliese koerante, die anti Messiaanse ortodokse Joodse aktiviste in die Joodse samelewing, die radikale vervanging bewegings, die Christelike anti Semitiste (as dit in verband nie alreeds 'n weerspreking is nie?) in die Christelike gemeenskap met nuwe skietgoed voorsien, mense wat baie maklik is om uit te buit, en ook die Skriftuurlike georiënteerde hoof stroom Joodse gelowiges, die Joodse Evangelisasie werk en 'n Bybelse kennis van die profetiese doelwitte van God met betrekking tot Israel en die Jode wat 'n oneer aangedoen word.

In 'n onlangse artikel in die November uitgawe van Israel Today is daar 'n artikel oor Jode wat die Godheid van Yeshua debatteer en dit het ongelukkig ook die wêreldse media bereik. 'n Opvolgende artikel in KIVUM, 'n periodieke inligting blad in Hebreeus, met 'n artikel deur Udi Tzofef wat verskeie Israeliese Messiaanse leiers aanhaal wat gesê het dat hulle nie Yeshua as God op dieselfde wyse sien as tradisionele Christen teoloë nie maar as die "Seun van God" en as die Messiaanse Verlosser. Sommige omhels dinge wat soos die eeue oue Ebionisme dwaling wat Jesus 'n unieke geïnspireerde man noem, maar nie God Self nie.

Dit het 'n terugslag vir Israel Today veroorsaak wat 'n opvolg artikel gedra het waar voorgestel word dat hierdie Messiaanse leiers wat nou terugdeins dit doen omdat hulle ekonomies bedreig word omdat hulle finasiële ondersteuning uit die buiteland opgeskort kan word.

Vir 'n geruime tyd het een gemeente in Jerusalem Ebioniete as lede verdra terwyl hulle leier in Israel afbrekende taal gebruik soos "Die kleinlikheid van die heidene," ('n Reuk wat hy nie vreeslik vuil kan vind nie omdat sy vrou en die ma van sy kinders een van hulle is.) En ook verklarings soos dat "die hele heidense Kerk oppad is Hel toe." Hy praat egter nie hierdie taal wanneer hy op fonds insameling toere na kerke in die VSA gaan nie. Hierdie gemeentes kombineer die invloede van Moishe Ben Meir (oorlede) ('n Gegradeerde van die Moody Bible Institute wat sommige van die Geskrifte van Paulus verwerp het) en invloede van die "Church of Christ," 'n sekte wat 'n wedergeboorte deur die doop in 'n vorm van sakramentisme voorstaan, gewoonlik geken as "Campbellite."

Onder diegene wat genoem is wat die Godheid van Christus verwerp is? Uri Markus van die Nehemia Trust, wat arm Israeliese gelowiges help. Terwyl die doelwit van Uri Markus van die Nehemia Trust goed is, is dit vir Moriel hartseer dat ons hulle nie meer verder kan aanbeveel nie soos in die geval van ander bewegings wat nie langer by die fundamentele Bybelse Waarheid bly nie soos dinge wat te doen het met die Godheid van Christus.

Ander persone wat die Godheid van Christus verwerp is Joseph Shulam, Weiss en Dodo Tel Tsur. (Mnr. Shulam word aangehaal waar hy gesê het: "Dat diegene wat glo dat Jesus God is hulle soeke na geloof verloor het.") Hanna Weiss en Joseph Shulam maak daarop aanspraak dat hulle uitgangspunte verkeerd opgevat en verkeerd en buite konteks aangehaal was en dat hulle nie die Godheid van Christus verwerp nie, maar dat dit eenvoudig nie uitgedruk was volgens die terminologie of die geloof belydenis van die Heidense Kerk nie.

Daar is geen voorskrifte in die Skrifte dat iemand die geloof belydenis van 'n kerk moet aanvaar of dat Bybelse Waarhede gedefinieer moet word in 'n taal en terme wat vreemd is aan die Nuwe Testament nie, ook nie in die Eerste Eeu se Joodse Kerk nie. As Mnr. Shulam en Hanna Weiss inderdaad die Godheid van Christus bely en maar net eenvoudig die Hellenistiese verklaring daarvan verwerp, dan is hulle onskuldig. Ander soos Mnr. Markus egter beklemtoon en verdedig sy verwerping van die Godheid van Christus.

Dit is duidelik dat terwyl die meeste Israeliese Messiaanse Jode glo aan die Godheid van Christus dat daar ook 'n minderheid nuwe Ebioniete is wat dit nie glo nie. Wat egter baie meer ongewoon is die verjoodse heidene soos Joseph. B. Good wat die Drie Eenheid verwerp. Peter Michas (Wie se hoop strooi deur Dr. Ron Rhodes van die tafel afgeskraap is.) wat nie net die ewige Persoonlikheid van Christus in die Drie Eenheid Godheid ontken nie, maar wat ook 'n leerstelling buite hierdie wêreld opgekook het soos dat die Here Jesus en die twee rowers aan 'n groeiende boom uit die grond vasgespyker was en dat die Tuin van Eden nie in Mesopotamië was volgens Genesis nie maar in Jerusalem, dinge wat waarskynlik uit die kabbalistiese idees van die mistieke Judaïsme kom.

Voorspelbaar is die mees ekstremistiese elemente van die Messiaanse Beweging onder my mede Charismatiese en Pinkster broeders. Dan Juster, leier van The Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations (UMJC) het ook nou teruggeval en die ekumeniese Promise Keepers dwaling begin ondersteun en so het hyself 'n slagoffer van die hiper? Charismatiese vervalsings, van die mees verdorwe soort geword wat gevolg het na die tragiese vuurdood van sy seun.

Die jong seun se oorskot was aan kunsmatig lewensonderhoud masjiene gekoppel terwyl Mnr. Juster selfoon oproepe ontvang het met boodskappe dat God sy seun uit die dood sou opwek. Nadat die toerusting afgeskakel is het hulle by hom aangedring om nie sy seun te begrawe nie.

Ja, God sal inderdaad sy seun op die Laaste dag opwek, en God kon hom inderdaad uit die dood opgewek het as dit God se Wil was, maar dit was nie God se Wil nie. Wat broeder Juster aanvaar het as profetiese woorde wat van die Here sou gekom het was egter niks meer as waarsêery van hiper Charismatiese valse profete en misleiers nie wat op die emosionele kwesbaarheid van 'n hartseer familie afgespeel is. Wanneer daar egter nie meer onderskeiding by leiers van 'n beweging is nie dan is daar baie min vooruitsigte vir so 'n beweging om die groter doelwitte van God te verstaan.

Ons waarsku al vir 'n geruime tyd dat as Kardinaal Jean Marie Lustigere van Parys ('n Etniese Jood) die volgende pous gaan word, dan gaan die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste baie bly wees dat die individu in daardie Antichris pouslike pos 'n "Joodse gelowige" is.

Om op te som

Dit is absoluut verstommend om dieselfde Ebionietiese kettery waarmee Satan probeer het om die eerste Messiaanse Beweging in die vroeë eeue van die kerk te vernietig, dit weer vandag terugbring soos wat God weer Sy genade aan Sy volk Israel begin openbaar.

Dit is ook verstommend om dieselfde nomianisme en wettisme wat Satan onder die hiper Messiaanse ekstremiste in Galate gebruik het om die Evangelie in die Eerste eeu se Kerk te ontspoor, dat dit nou weer in die Twintigste eeu se Kerk na vore kom met dieselfde doel.

Wat eers die vesting van die Sewende Dag Adventiste was, waar probeer word om onder twee verbonde te lewe, wat onwerkbaar is, het dit nou ook deurgedring na die meeste Charismatiese takke van die Messiaanse Beweging

Terwyl net 'n klein persentasie van die Joodse gelowiges verteenwoordig word het hierdie hoogs hoorbare Galasiërs hulle self aangestel as woordvoerders vir al die Joodse gelowiges en met al hulle klomp strooi het hulle vergeet wat die boodskap van Romeine 3:17?23 is.

Verder is dit verstommend om te sien dat Satan besig is om dieselfde anti Messiaanse hoogmoed op te wek waarteen Romeine 11:18 waarsku wat ook in die vroeë kerk plaasgevind het en wat vandag weer plaasvind. Dit is ook verstommend om die sien hoedat die venynige anti Semitiese retoriek, wat vermom is as Christelike leerstellings waarvan die vroeë kerk vol van was, in die venynige preekstoel propaganda van John Chrysostom (wat ook deur die eeue deur die pouse en Luther herhaal was) vandag weer deur mond van Satan se Latter Day boodskappers, die Ruchmaniete kom.

Laaste van almal, net soos wat Joodse gelowiges soos Paulus in die vroeë kerk hierdie deurmekaarspul en dwalings van die Messiaanse ekstremiste aan die een kant teengestaan het, en Christelike anti Semitisme en die vervanging groepe aan die ander kant, het die Here weereens Joodse gelowiges opgewek soos Arnold Fruchtenbaum tot by Stan Telchin en Louis Goldberg met 'n Skriftuurlike gebalanseerde reaksie teen hierdie twee dwalinge van Satan wat hy in die vroeë kerk laat ontstaan het. Van een ding kan ons egter baie seker van wees, God het nie toegelaat dat Satan in die vroeë kerk in Galate geslaag het nie, en dieselfde God sal hom ook nie toelaat om nou te slaag nie. †††

Don't bit ethe hand that feeds you - Irish hypocrisy towards Israel

By David Passmore • August 21, 2026
Don't bite the hand that feeds you - Irish hypocrisy towards Israel Rubin Rothler LLB, LLM Amongst European nations, Ireland in recent years has gained the reputation as being the leading anti-Zionist country. The Irish Republic has never been favourably inclined to Israel. It only established an Embassy in Tel Aviv in 1996. In poll after poll the vast majority of the Irish public have indicated hostility towards Zionism and strong support for Palestinian Statehood. The curious aberration to this is that in British Ruled Northern Ireland support is demarcated along sectarian lines. Catholic Republican areas predictably tend to ardently support the Palestinian cause, while Protestant Unionist communities are overwhelmingly pro-Israel. Perhaps some credence can be given to sentiments of traditional Catholic antisemitism hardwired into the Irish psyche as contributing towards this disposition. It was certainly odd that the Irish government promptly sent a delegation to the Nazi German Ambassador in Dublin to convey condolences after news of Hitler's suicide broke at the end of WW2. But more concretely if you were to ask the average Irish protester on a pro-Palestine march the basis of their empathy for the Palestinian cause, they would point to the ostensible parallels between the Irish experience of fighting for independence from British colonial oppression to the plight of Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. Further remonstrations on a diplomatic level concern the actions of the IDF interreacting with Irish Peace Keepers in Southern Lebanon that have caused the deaths of several Irish Peace Keepers over the decades in friendly fire incidents. Ireland has contributed the most peace keepers to this mission per capita and the government has condemned Israel for these deaths that they view as avoidable. This animosity towards Israel is unbalanced. There are reasons to consider that Ireland and Israel have a shared experience of national liberation. Both countries fought the British in the pursuit of independence. Both countries made great efforts to resurrect their ancient languages for modern wide scale use. Both the Irish and Jews form major diaspora communities in New York. Despite all this Ireland ranks as Israel's second largest export market after the US. The preponderance of Israeli exports to Ireland comprises electronic integrated circuits, micro-assemblies, and tech manufacturing components. American multinational colossal tech corporations like Intel are substantially engrossed in this trade through the chain of supply. Ireland and Israel are hubs for design and manufacture of high-tech hardware components for US corporations. So, due to the nature of the most prosperous and competitive sectors of their respective economies, Israel and Ireland are inextricably bound in bilateral trade ties. Resolutions from the Irish government to impose sanctions on West Bank originating produce is merely perfunctory rhetoric. Such actions amount to a drop in the bucket in terms of impact to overall trade. The stark reliance of Ireland on advanced Israeli aviation equipment recently caused a spectacle when Ireland's new government jet struggled to land in heavy fog due to it being ordered without an advanced Israeli made navigation system. This was directly due to a short-sighted government decision not to buy Israeli military technology. There is a marked disparity between the official position of the Irish government designed for domestic public consumption and the economic policies that it actually pursues towards Israel. The government is acutely aware that the US is massively invested in the Irish economy and they don't want to do anything to jeopardise this. Washington demands that their enterprises in Dublin are intertwined with operations in Israel. The Irish government dare not even prevent US military supply flights refuelling at Shannon Airport on their way to Tel Aviv. The Irish government knows that times change and now the gripping social issue is the anti-immigrant/anti-Islam popular street protests. Soon the anti-Israel protests could become a mere side show only really promoted by Sinn Fein given the pressing ramifications of mass migration. So, in the meantime certain politicians will rile against the occupation, purported genocide and pass paltry sanctions against insignificant produce from the West Bank. All the while making hand over fist in money with the Israelis where it really matters in tech.

The tide has Changed

By David Passmore • July 31, 2026
The Tide Has Changed Rubin Rothler LLB, LLM The America that Netanyahu touched down on is a changed America. The death of Lindsey Graham represents a changing of the guard. Graham was a staunch Israeli ally who will most probably become an increasingly rare breed in Washington. Sixty percent of Americans now hold a unfavourable view of Israel which politicians are finding difficult to ignore. It was once unthinkable to believe that New York City with such a strong Jewish electoral base and influence on all sectors of economic and cultural life would have a mayor that is so hostile to Israel to such an extent that he is calling for the arrest of its Prime Minister. From all accounts Netanyahu was cordially welcomed at the White House. The official press release stated that the talks were constructive. What is more telling is what was left unsaid particularly concerning the proposed sale of F35's to Israel's new regional adversary -Turkey. Trump is keen to find a swift resolution to the Iran War, while Netanyahu is opposed to a premature departure. When the US and Israel initiated their attacks on Iran over five months ago, Trump and Netanyahu appeared united in the War's goals and purpose. But as the protracted conflict has staggered to topple the Iranian regime fractures have emerged. Much has been said about the imminent political realities both leaders face. The Republicans could take a big hit in the November midterm elections should the war continue and global energy markets be negatively impacted. Netanyahu is anxious to demonstrate a big win to the Israeli public with the upcoming October election. In Israel, the Iran War is not viewed in isolation, but rather as an extension of the response to the colossal disaster of the October 7th massacre. Netanyahu must rehabilitate his reputation as a competent steward of national security having had the greatest loss of civilian life in an attack happening under his watch. Aside from the Iran issue, Trump is being pressured by Erdogan to insist upon Israeli withdrawal from Syrian territory pre-emptively seized by Israel following the toppling of Assad. Trump has also indicated disapproval of the extent of continuing Israeli measures against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, questioning the proportionality employed. Netanyahu is not in an envious position. Throughout his tenure and political career, he lauded his ability to engage successfully with the American public by zealously advocating Israel's position. Yet under his government Israel's reputation has plummeted in the US. Trump may be the last US President to extend such overwhelming bilateral support to Israel. The days of politicians like Lindsey Graham are fast ending. While John Fetteman and Marco Rubio appear to be remaining more solid, even some of the most warmly inclined leading Republican and Democrat voices like Donald Trump and Rahm Emanuel have nuanced their support for Israel. The tide has shifted and will at best level off if not continuing to shift further.

The Saudi Nuclear Deal: An attempt to alter the Regional Balance of Power

By David Passmore • July 24, 2026
The Saudi Nuclear Deal: An attempt to alter the Regional Balance of Power Rubin Rothler LLB, LLM The initiative to develop a civilian nuclear program in Saudi Arabia with US assistance isn't new. There were concrete plans discussed towards these ends during the first Trump Administration. The recent announcement to actualize this deal follows the geo-political regional tumult in the wake of the Iran War. Several dimensions of motivation underlie the US decision. An overarching US strategic agenda is to keep the Saudis firmly in the American sphere of influence. Washington knows all too well that the Chinese and Russians are eager to offer their nuclear technical assistance to the Saudis in order to draw them closer to their camp. On a personal note, the nuclear agreement is a significant achievement for Bin Salaman. The Saudis have long had designs to diversify their energy supplies. Having a civilian nuclear program also adds prestige to Saudi Arabia as an emerging market economy. For the US, a monopoly on contracting companies for the requisite construction offers lucrative economic opportunities. Although the Civilian Nuclear deal does not allow the enrichment of Uranium, the Saudis will be in a position to do so if Washington gives the green light. This will act as a counterbalanced threat hanging over the Iranians. After the recent flare up of renewed fighting with Iran due to their lack of adherence to the moratorium of understanding, something had to budge in Trump's estimation. A reconfiguration of the power balance in the Gulf by introducing the potential of Saudi Arabia to be able to acquire nuclear weapons shifts the dynamic and places further pressure on Iran to strictly abstain from nuclear proliferation. Despite Israeli concerns about the agreement, Trump sought to assuage their alarm by making it contingent upon Saudi Arabia normalizing relations with them. Given the inherently unstable nature of an autocratic Saudi regime Israel views a diplomatic relationship with the Saudis as being on precarious footing in the long term. Israel is already forced to contend with the implications of one nuclear armed Muslim state - Pakistan and it will further weaken its own deterrent capability if another similarly capable hostile neighbour were to emerge in the future. The roles of Turkey and Qatar in all this foray are a wild card. Officially Turkey is served under the NATO nuclear umbrella for defence that is subject to US control. However, its civilian nuclear program remains in its infancy. Now with the Saudi deal, Erdogan may be inclined to exert pressure on the US to help accelerate his own nuclear program. Just as Erdogan's efforts to acquire F35 fighter jets from the US greatly disturbed Israeli military planners, a heightened Turkish nuclear ability will intensify this fear. Qatar views itself as pursuing its own independent foreign policy that has managed to remain rather neutral during the current war, thereby escaping the ire of Iran's strikes on US regional assets. Overall, the Qatari government has grown closer to the Turkish vision for the region and so likely isn't particularly amiable to the Saudi agreement. Ultimately the Saudi deal is a gamble. Many will see it as throwing more fuel on the fire which will further imperil the tinder box region and heighten tensions. But Trump finds himself at a continuing impasse with a stubborn regime in Tehran that is leveraging their geographic hold on the straits of Hormuz to inflict damage on the global energy markets. Iranian strikes upon US Arab regional allies have underscored the de facto alliance between Israel and the Arabs against Iran and its Shia proxies. The US hopes to use the Saudi nuclear deal as a means of making this alliance official by having Saudi Arabia joining the Abraham Accords as a pre-condition.

Circling the Wagons

By David Passmore • July 14, 2026
Circling the wagons Ruben Rothler LLB, LLM Israel is a society riddled with tension and division. It is sociologically, if not politically miraculous that a country drawing Jews from all over the world is able to exist at all. The army affords a degree of integration as a melting pot. But this is only a marginal source of national unity in the overall scheme of things. More so are the myriads of external threats that face this small country. In the former generation the Ashkenazi (Jews of European descent) - Sephardic (Jews of Oriental descent) divide was far more pronounced. The dominant Ashkenazi establishment held the reins of political and economic power which was resented by the Sephardim. However, due to a combination of inter-marriage and political accommodation much of the chasm that separated these distinct groups was forged. Menachem Begin (an Ashkenazi politician) in 1970 successfully ran on the Likud Party ticket with a campaign that brought Sephardic Jews under his conservative political umbrella. Later the immigration of Russian Jews following the end of Communism would add a whole new dimension to the Israeli demographic milieu. The younger generation of these immigrants tended to adapt well to Israeli society and contributed much to the economy. The wider division in Israeli society that crosses ethnic lines concerns that between religious and secular Jews. This can be further bifurcated to the clash between the secular and specifically ultra-orthodox Jews (Haredim) as distinguished from the national religious Jews (Dati Leumi). The Secular and the Religious generally part on what they envisage a Jewish State to entail. Religious Jews desire the State to strictly adhere to the stipulations of Jewish Law (Halacha), while at present Halakhic influence is largely limited to certain areas of Family Law concerning Jewish citizens. Wider considerations of promoting a socially conservative political agenda would also be forefront amongst the religious mindset broadly. Secular Jews view the imposition of such proposed measures as a serious infringement of their civil rights. With regard to the Haredim, the bone of contention looms larger, in that this group is fundamentally opposed to participating in society at large. This is acutely manifested in diminished contribution to the work force and a refusal to be conscripted into the army. The 2023 judicial reform protests posed a significant threat to social civil order. The nation appeared to be bitterly divided into two opposing camps. This split reflected broader divisions concerning visions of how the country should be governed. The judicial reforms would have weakened the Supreme Court's ability to render the Executive branch accountable. However, the Supreme Court was also accused of using its considerable powers to promote a socially liberal agenda. Left wing secular Israelis tended to oppose the proposed reforms while those on the right (which included the majority of Religious Jews) supported the reforms. Every weekend droves of protesters were brought onto the streets causing major disturbances to traffic. The polarising nature of this impasse threatened the future of Israeli democracy. It was the October 7th attack that brought a swift end to this public debate and civil strife. The nation instinctually united in response to this common existential threat. The judicial reforms were shelved for a future point when the urgent security threats subsided. However, as the war dragged on the enduring issue of Haredi refusal to conscript into the army became more pronounced. Mounting casualties combined with ever increasing manpower demands to field troops on the multiple theatres of action on which the IDF is engaged has depleted the ranks, and the army is now in much need of fresh conscripts. Haredi belligerent refusal to participate in the pressing national defence has escalated from being a political debate to a matter of very practical vital importance. Overall we can observe that the challenges to national unity in successive generations since the establishment of Israel has recurrently been ameliorated by the common necessity of defence towards outside threats. Most recently we can see this happening with regard to the global anti Semitism and anti-Zionism that has been raging since the October 7th atrocities. These hostile attitudes have paradoxically acted as a force which promotes nationalism and a sense of national cohesion in Israel that otherwise might not functionally exist.

A Divided Nation

By David Passmore • July 8, 2026
A Divided Nation Rubin Rothler LLB, LLM The Haredi community has had a complicated, paradoxical relationship with the State since its founding. Rooted in a Talmudic precept that the Jews are forbidden to resettle the land of Israel en masse by force before the coming of the Messiah, the secular democratic State of Israel presents itself as blasphemous by its mere existence. Yet due to practical considerations such as the need to obtain funding for its religious academies the Haredi leadership reached a settlement with the State's founders that exempted Haredi men from being conscripted for military service. This was at a time when the Haredi population in Israel was relatively small. Over the past decades this demographic ballooned until the point that soon the majority of Jewish children in Israel will be born into Haredi families. Such a situation is clearly unsustainable. Recently the Knesset's (Parliament's) Haredi parties have pressured their coalition partners in government to codify Torah Study as part of the Country's Basic Laws. This was purposefully done to elevate the status of their institutions to be on parity with service in the IDF. Israel is yet to promulgate a written Constitution, so legislation classed as a Basic Law holds Constitutional status for all intents and purposes. These moves by the religious parties represent a back door power grab to enshrine in law very significant hurdles to prevent the enlistment of Haredi men. The burden of Israel's defence is comparatively massive for a country its size and it is vastly disproportionately shouldered by the secular population. Until now there have been political initiatives to conscript the Haredim. But given the huge manpower shortages emerging in the wake of near continual conflict on multiple fronts since the events of October 7th this matter has become urgent and not merely a theoretical discussion of what is fair and equitable. It is important to draw a distinction between the Haredim and national religious Jews (Dati Leumi). The Haredim adhere to a lifestyle entirely committed to observance of Jewish Law and Talmudic study. This is embraced to the exclusion of gainful employment and participation in wider society. They are either outrightly opposed to Zionism or consider themselves non-Zionist. Conversely, followers of the national religious movement in Israel although being observant of Jewish law and learning would alongside this pursue secular professions. Furthermore, they are ardently Zionist and disproportionately serve in IDF combat units. This is often done within the framework of a program called Hesder Yeshiva that combines religious learning with military service. Efforts to cater a similar model for accommodating Haredi participation in the IDF have so far failed to make substantial gains. Such measures designed to override Haredi objections to service based upon modesty concerns by strict segregation of the sexes in these specially formed units have failed to appease the Haredi leadership. For them, any form of military service is considered a dereliction of their duty to fully devote themselves to a Torah lifestyle. They argue that their Talmudic learning and prayers are in itself a form of national service and act to protect the Jewish people spiritually from enemy attack. It is as if two parallel societies exist within Israel. And the trajectory of separation between the two is only growing. The Haredim are cloistered away in their Yeshivas, immersed in lives devoted to adhering to the stipulations of Jewish law. While the particulars of actually running the State is left to the Secular. The Haredim desire all the benefits of subsidizing their lifestyle without contributing to society. What we really have going on here at source is two profoundly different and opposing ideological visions of what is important in life and what is the purpose of a Jewish State. At the State's founding these divergent perspectives were more manageable. Ben Gurion only had to contend with one religious party –the National Religious Party. Later in 1970 Begin aligned with the NRP to form a coalition government that also brought Sephardic Jews under the Likud umbrella which had the effect of bringing unity to the country by bridging the Ashkenazi-Sephardi divide. However, over time Israeli politics has seen a proliferation of religious parties, gaining further leverage as king brokers in forming governments due to the proportionate representation voting system which secular Israelis not uncommonly view as political blackmail.

Disclosure - A Christian response

By David Passmore • June 22, 2026
THE CAPTION AT THE HEAD OF THE POSTER IMAGE FOR THE MOVIE ‘DISCLOSURE DAY’ BOLDLY DECLARES ‘WE DESERVE TO KNOW’ Indeed, we do need to know the truth. But will we find it in Stephen Spielberg’s new movie ‘Disclosure Day’? Could it just as well be entitled ‘DECEPTION DAY’? In an interview with USA Today Spielberg says that evidence of non-human contact has become “overwhelming” to him. He has suggested that his film could raise significant theological questions for Christians. But will it? For us Christians - No, not on our watch! The movie raises no questions for those who accept the proven accuracy of God’s Word, the Bible. The film, which is capturing the imagination of the public, only confirms exactly what scripture tells us about what are in fact extra-dimensional beings. ALIENS OR FALLEN ANGELS? God inhabits the heavenly realm along with a vast array of angels. Because Lucifer, a created angel, wanted to usurp God as ruler of the universe, he was expelled to another realm outside of our time and space, along with one third of the angels who rebelled with him. These fallen angels manifest themselves as demons who can appear on earth and disappear at will. Spiritual hosts of wickedness exist in heavenly places, wherever this realm is, it is not the place where God dwells. ARE ALIENS BENEVOLENT? In the movie, the ‘aliens’ are portrayed as friendly beings who want to help mankind in a time of crisis. If the aliens are really demons, not visitors from outer space, this is a dangerous delusion. Whitley Striber in his book ‘Communion’ writes on encountering ‘aliens’; ‘I felt an indescribable sense of menace. Whatever was there seemed so monstrously ugly, so filthy, so dark and sinister. Of course they were demons. They have to be.’ Many others have reported similar malevolent experiences. During the movie, Daniel claims to have had an encounter with extra-terrestrials during which he received a special gift of empathy, which is regarded by him as the ultimate superpower. However, there is only One who completely understands our human frailty. We read this concerning Jesus: ‘For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathise with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are - yet he did not sin.’ (Hebrews 4 v 15). Jesus said: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11 v 28) END TIMES DECEPTION Before he was crucified, Jesus warned his disciples about these last days in which we are living. The first words he used in this context were: “Watch no one deceives you. For many will come in my name saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.” Deception was top of the list! Later, the Apostle Paul wrote about these days: ‘The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.’ (2 Thessalonians 2 v 9) Have you received the love of the truth? Have you received Jesus who is the way, the truth and the life? If not, you are in great danger. Perilous times are here and they are only going to get worse as man turns more and more away from his maker. Things will only change when Jesus returns soon to establish his own Kingdom on earth, where justice and peace will rule. JESUS, OUR ONLY HOPE! The Bible says all human beings are sinners. The message of Jesus is simple; repent and believe the good news, that God wants humanity, his highest creation, to be reestablished in relationship with him. His plan was simple: to give his life in unconditional love for every human being that has and ever will live, by shedding his blood on a Roman cross. In doing this, we can receive forgiveness of sins. Our old life will then be buried with him, giving us new life with the hope of an eternal future of true peace, love and joy, with freedom from pain and tears. Why ignore such a great gift of salvation? If you do, your fate will be sealed for eternity in hell, which is a real place without God, and thus without love, to face only eternal consequences of punishment. We condemn ourselves to such a fate. REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! Jesus loves you and asks that you repent and believe in him. It would be the best and safest decision of your life! If you commit your life to him, he will give you a new heart, you will be a new person inside. You will also gain a new desire for all that is right and true. And his Holy Spirit will give you an ability to discern the lies of the age we are living in. ‘For God so loved the world, that he gave us his only son, that whosoever believes in him, will not perish, but have eternal life.’ (John 3:16) FINALLY, A RECOMMENDATION  All that is described in this leaflet has been open, in the light for millennia. On the other hand, the theory of extra-terrestrial life has been hidden in darkness, awaiting ‘Disclosure Day’. Which would you prefer to believe, the Word of God, or the word of Stephen Spielberg? I made my choice years ago, and have never regretted it! If this message has spoken to you, just call upon Jesus in a short prayer. Confess to him that you are a sinner in need of salvation. Ask him in sincerity to forgive you and to fill you with his Holy Spirit. You will then become what the Bible describes as being ‘born again’. (John 3 v 7) Then you need to seek a Bible believing church where you can be baptised and become part of a group of believers who can help you get to know Jesus more and more fully. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8 v 32)

The End of an Extended Honeymoon – Are Trump and Netanyahu Parting Ways?

By David Passmore • June 19, 2026
The End of an Extended Honeymoon – Are Trump and Netanyahu Parting Ways? Rubin Rothler LLB, LLM  The Israeli public had high hopes for Trump. Unlike his predecessors, he consistently endorsed Israeli measures of self-defence in the different theatres of conflict in which it had to contend. Further to these ends Trump shared in Netanyahu’s determined agenda of preventing the Iranians from pursuing the proliferation of nuclear weapons. During Trump's first term he tore up Obama's negotiated settlement with the Iranians concerning enriched Uranium, echoing Netanyahu’s position that it didn't go far enough. Now in his second term Trump partnered with Israel in a war with Iran that turned out to lack clearly defined goals. The campaign required resolve on the part of America that it wasn't willing to commit. After an initial lightning blitzkrieg that decapitated the Iranian leadership, the Persians dug in and the conflict became a protracted war of attrition hinging on Iran's stranglehold on the straits of Hormuz that could only be realistically lifted by placing boots on the ground or an intensified air war directed against Iranian coastal positions and the destruction of Kharg island, or at least the viable threat to obliterate Kharg island if Iran did not acquiesce. It transpired that Trump and Netanyahu underestimated the resilience of the Iranian regime, thinking that it had already received a near mortal blow during the prior popular demonstrations. So now we are left with a situation where Trump is exasperated with this protracted endeavour and appears to be aiming his frustration towards Netenyahu. A sticking point is Israel's continued occupation of Southern Lebanon. Iran is insistent that Israel withdraw its forces from there as a precursor to fully committing itself to a final status agreement with the U.S. to put an end to its nuclear aspirations. With the midterm elections looming Trump seems to be desperate for an exit strategy from this war. From Israel's perspective the fight against Hizbollah is an inextricable part of the Iranian equation. The IDF has invested massive resources and personnel in the hopes of quashing the Iranian proxy once and for all. Netanyahu is determined to build on the momentum achieved after the spectacular pager attack in 2024. After the catastrophic Hamas massacres of October 7th, the majority of the Israeli public is unwilling to tolerate a capable hostile force on its borders. Trump's proposed solution to this dilemma unrealistically suggests that Syria should take on the role of disarming and removing Hizbollah from Lebanon. In the ultimate reckoning of international relations, America doesn't have iron clad allies, but rather interests like any other nation. If, (as appears to be occurring now) U.S. and Israeli interests fail to align the two countries will cease to act in unison and there may be a rupture in relations on the not-too-distant horizon. Trump has indicated that Israel owes him big time. He has asserted that were it not for his decisive actions they would have been obliterated by Iran's missiles. This is nothing to say of the robust diplomatic support Trump has lent Israel in such forums as the United Nations Security Council and sanctioning officials of the International Criminal Court. Netanyahu is acutely aware of what may be next after Trump. The way public opinion is turning against Israel it is unlikely that the next administration is going to be any way near as friendly as Trump has been thus far to Israel. Trump too of course is mindful of this turning tide opposing Israel. The Iran war has been unpopular to his domestic audience, and the President has been caricatured as Netanyahu’s stooge doing Israel's bidding. Another major consideration for Trump is the colossal impact that the war has had on his other major regional allies: the Gulf States and Saudi Arabia. They have received the brunt of the Iranian backlash that has effectively targeted their energy infrastructure and trading routes. They, along with the Europeans have been exerting pressure on Trump to end the conflict and reopen the Straits of Hormuz regardless of whether the most favourable terms of Iranian capitulation are achieved. Israel, however important a strategic asset and technological powerhouse will not override these broader concerns that are endangering global energy markets. An unspoken factor is Trump's propensity for a belligerent severing of his relationship with allies in the political sphere. His public displays of hostility with former political allies such Senator Ted Cruz, Governor Ron Santos and Elon Musk demonstrate a temperament that the same kind of falling out could invoke with strategic allies as well as those political. Both Trump and Netanyahu are approaching the sunset of their political careers and are naturally inclined to deeply consider the legacies they will leave behind. In the international sphere Trump projected himself as a peacemaker from a position of strength. But as many commentators have pointed out, the war with Iran demonstrated the limits of U.S. power. Trump appraised Iran as low hanging fruit that could be swiftly toppled like Venezuela. However, when push came to shove and the only prospect of landing a decisive blow demanded a massive ground offensive on the scale of the Iraq war, he bottled out and sued for a premature peace that will leave Netanyahu in the cold. Netanyahu is anxious to rehabilitate the injury inflicted on his reputation of the greatest disaster to have occurred in Israel's history having happened on his watch. Eliminating Iran as the great regional adversary pulling the strings of its proxies would have done much in this regard. Neither leader is able to craft their legacies as they would have wanted. Trump is choosing the perceived option of mitigating the damage done to his legacy in foreign affairs. He is trying hard to sell his Iran deal as being more than what Obama bargained in terms of guaranteeing a nuclear free Iran. But as further details of his proposal are leaked this is becoming a tall order. Netanyahu is faced with October elections and he may decide to stay the course in Lebanon as otherwise he will seem weak to most voters. Should this happen, we will be in uncharted waters as it will thwart Trump's designs for an immediate end to this affair.
