It is a known fact that a person does not change his beliefs easily since it is much simpler to believe as you have always believed. It is safer not to "rock the boat" in your church or in your family. Nevertheless, those individuals who truly desire to know truth will not let such obstacles suppress their search.
At the same time, there are people who do not want the truth contained in this book to reach the general public. These enemies of truth will do everything in their power to keep the populace ignorant of the contents of this book. They will orchestrate smear campaigns (through Hollywood movies, television and the media, and from the Judeo-Christian pulpits) labeling the Christian-Israel message as simply "anti-Semitism," "racism" or "white supremacy." Wanting an easy way out, some people will shamefully choose to believe these traducers without even reading this book or investigating the facts for themselves.
Anti-Semitism
Identifying true Israel while at the same time exposing the Jews as imposters, cannot be labeled "anti-Semitism" because the people known as "Jews" (in the twentieth century) are primarily from Japheth's lineage, rather than Shem's. The Jews have virtually no Shemite (Semite) blood running through their veins, except for a trace of Edomite blood resulting from proselytizing and forbidden intermarriage at an earlier time in their history. On the other hand, the Celto-Saxon majority of the white race is descended from Noah's son Shem, and consequently is predominantly Semitic in lineage. Today many of these Caucasian majority members are accused of being anti-Semitic. What utter nonsense! The accused are Semites! To identify the people who are truly anti-Semite, find the people who are anti-white or anti-Caucasian.
Racism
The message of Israel's true identity cannot be labeled "racism" unless, of course, the same accusers are willing to call God Almighty a racist as well. It was YHWH who chose Israel to be His people under both the Old and New Covenants. Christian Israel and her identity-aware preachers are simply reiterating what God Himself declared.
White Supremacy
Identifying the Celto-Saxon peoples as Israel cannot be labeled "white supremacy" because it does not elevate one race above another. Instead, this Biblical reality mandates that one race (the Celto-Saxons) be a servant unto the other races. This Scriptural truth is not "white supremacy"; it is white servanthood. Seldom has it been stated more capably than by Pastor William John Cameron:
The true effect of race knowledge is not to feed our vanity or rouse boastfulness; rather, it should arouse a profound sense of responsibility.1
Today [1930s] especially we feel a revulsion against speaking of race at all. ...I lay it down as a rule that whenever the thought of race leads us to boastfulness or contempt, there is something false in it.2
The Bible is not a history of the human race at large, but one distinct strain of people amongst the family the races. All the other races are considered with reference to it.... The Bible deals with one race which flows like a Gulf Stream through the ocean of humanity. As the actual Gulf Stream touches two continents and blesses the nations, so this race, in its origin, history and destiny, was selected and equipped for the service of the [other] nations.3
Of course, many people still have their own ideas about this, and that creates a difficulty. For when people get their own ideas about things, it always leads to confusion. A man will rise and demand, "By what right does God choose one race or people above another?" I like that form of the question. It is much better than asking by what right God degrades one people beneath another, although that is implied. God's grading is always upward. If He [YHWH] raises up a nation, it is that other nations may be raised up through its ministry. If He exalts a great man, an apostle of liberty, or science, or faith, it is that He might raise a degraded people to a better condition. The Divine selection is not a prize, a compliment paid to the man or the race — it is a burden imposed. To appoint a chosen people is not a pandering to the racial vanity of a "superior people"; it is a yoke bound upon the necks of those who are chosen for a special service.4
Unfortunately, there are White Supremacist groups (under many names) in our country today. However, true Christian Israelites should not and cannot be lumped together with groups who promote contempt and hatred for other races.5 There is no justification for anyone, who is truly searching for truth and who has honestly examined the facts, to label the Israel identity message in such a slanderous and defamatory fashion. This message is a great and wonderful revelation! Let it be embraced as such.
With all the facts before us — the truth of Scripture, the evidence of archaeology and the verification of history — we can see and understand that:
- God still has a New Covenant plan for physical Israel today.
- The Celto-Saxon peoples are Israelites, the true descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel.
- Today's "Jews" are not Israelites, but are, instead, imposters and Christian Israel's greatest enemies.
- The correct identification of modern-day Israel is vital for Christ's body, true Israel and the rest of the world.
- This understanding is not "anti-Semitic," "racist" or "white supremacist," but is, instead, the correct teaching concerning Israel found in the Scriptures.
Truth forever on the scaffold
Wrong forever on the throne
Yet that scaffold sways the future
And behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow,
Keeping watch above his own.
James Russell Lowell
Despite the confusion in the past and present ages, these truths concerning Israel's identity are now clear. Each person must decide upon the action he will take regarding this information. It is my prayer that you will be honest with the facts presented in this book and accept the responsibility that is incumbent upon you. The following words of Pastor Josiah Strong are as applicable today as the day (in 1885) when he wrote them, maybe even more so:
...there is no doubt that the Anglo-Saxon [specifically the Christian Celto-Saxon] is to exercise the commanding influence in the world's future; but the exact nature of that influence is, as yet, undetermined. How far his civilization will be materialistic and atheistic, and how long it will take thoroughly to Christianize and sweeten it, how rapidly he will hasten the coming of the kingdom [of God] wherein dwelleth righteousness, or how many ages he may retard it, is still uncertain; but is now being swiftly determined.... May God open the eyes of this generation! When Napoleon drew up his troops before the Mamelukes [in 1798], under the shadow of the Pyramids, pointing to the latter, he aid to his soldiers: "Remember that from yonder heights forty centuries look down on you." Men of this generation, from the pyramid top of opportunity on which God has set us, we look down on forty centuries! We [Christian Celto-Saxons] stretch our hand into the future with power to mold the destinies of unborn millions....
Notwithstanding the great perils which threaten it, I cannot think our [Celto-Saxon] civilization will perish; but I believe it is fully in the hands of the Christians ... during the next fifteen or twenty years, to hasten or retard the coming of Christ's [perfected] kingdom in the world by hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of years. We of this generation and nation occupy the Gibraltar of the ages which commands the world's future.6
It does not take a genius to see that America and her people are not what they once were, that her grandeur and greatness have been declining for some time. Why has this happened? Could Israel's loss of identity, and thus her sense of obligation to her God, be the cause of her national deterioration?
...what great nation is there that has a god so near it as is YHWH our God whenever we [Israel] call on Him? Or what great nation is there that has statutes and judgments as righteous as this whole law which I [Moses] am setting before you today? Only give heed to yourself [Israel] and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your sons and your grandsons [and all your descendants forever]. (Deuteronomy 4:7-9)
The description "great nation" will never again be said of Israel unless she awakens from her blindness, accepts the responsibility of her identity and returns to her God and His Laws!
Will this ever happen? Is there any hope that our sight and hearing will be restored and that our understanding and discernment will return? Isaiah prophesied of a time in Israel's future when the blind would see, the deaf would hear and many would understand the truth:
...the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, and the ears of those who hear will listen. And the mind of the hasty will discern the truth.... (Isaiah 32:3-4)
Was the American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson inspired by those words of the Prophet Isaiah when he wrote the following:
Our eyes are holden that we cannot see things until the hour arrives when the mind is ripened. Then we behold them, and the time when we saw them not is like a dream.
May we, who have been graciously granted a deeper understanding of God's Word and who have been privileged to see and hear a higher calling in Yeshua the Christ, prove ourselves worthy and true to this calling. Let us awaken to the tremendous impact which can be made on our generation and the generations to come with the knowledge of Israel's true identity. Let us be faithful to what we now know, passing it on to the remnant among our people who are waiting to hear and respond.
Listen to Me, you [Israelites] who pursue righteousness, who seek YHWH: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and the quarry from which you were dug. Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who gave birth to you in pain.... (Isaiah 51:1-2)
Oh that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in my ways [follow My Laws]! I [YHWH] would quickly subdue their [Israel's] enemies, and turn My hand against their adversaries. (Psalm 81:13-14)
The choice concerning Israel's identity is clear for those who seek the truth: God had and continues to have a plan for His Covenant People Israel — the Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Germanic and kindred peoples. May YHWH be magnified before His enemes through Yeshua the Christ and Israel, His people!
