1 COUNTERFEIT ISRAEL A DANGEROUS PROPHETIC ILLUSION Millions of Christian people in the West have a deeply sincere belief that the emergent Israeli State of the past seven decades is a wonderful fulfill of the Bible prophecy heralding the restoration of Israel, prior to the Second Advent of Jesus Christ. Although the peoples of the Zionist State are demonstrably not homogeneous racially and despite the fact that they are rooted in their rejection of Christ, the Messiah, it is widely believed by the evangelical Christian folk of the West, that this is just a phase preliminary to Israeli acceptance of Christ at His Return. The fact that 730,000 Palestinian Arabs were displaced when the militant Zionists took over in 1948 does not seem to matter very much to this school of prophetic teaching. It is high time that this state of thought should be corrected. The interpretation of events put by these Christians might be well and fine except for one relevant point which those who relate this prophecy to the Israeli State have chosen to ignore. The fact is that the vast majority of Jewry in Palestine are not descended from the ancient Israelites and therefore do not come within the terms of the special protection of Almighty God, in their occupation of Palestine. The mere taking of the name Israel really has nothing to do with it for those who are not Israelites by lineage. In point of fact it could become a curse upon those who use the divinely appointed name improperly. OUR LORD S OWN WORDS In this we have the clear Scriptural record of our Lord s own words. He informed racially mixed Jewry as distinct from the true descendants of Judah of their failure to bring forth the fruits of righteousness. He said: Therefore say I unto you. The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation [not a church] bringing forth the fruits thereof (Matt. 21:43). Within forty years following the crucifixion of Jesus, a military threat developed for the Jews of this period from which they fully expected to be delivered by God. An armed

2 uprising was staged against Rome, but Divine intervention was not forthcoming and the Jewish nation was driven from Palestine. A stand was made at the mountain stronghold of Masada where, rather than give in to the Roman legions, the Jews died to the last man by their own hand. These people were no longer to be regarded as the people of the Kingdom or of the Prince, the Messiah as predicted by the prophet Daniel and as foreseen in our Lord s own prophecy. It is now common practice to regard the designations Israeli, Zionist, Jewish and Israel as synonymous, applicable to the Jewish people no matter what their racial origin. This is a serious, fundamental error leading to all manner of confusion when it comes to prophetic interpretation relating to events in these days. JEWS A MIXED LINEAGE It is now recognized by those informed on this question that the Jewish people are not a race as such, but rather a group of people drawn from differing races. By far the largest proportion are descendants of a South Russian, Turco-Mongol people, the Khazars (Chazars) who were converted in masse to Judaism during the eighth century, as some Jewish scholars themselves admit. The name Israel cannot possibly apply to these people. From the mixed lineage, now known as the Ashkenazim, came political Zionism. From this source there developed the political pressure which produced the Balfour Declaration of 2nd November, This coerced Britain as part of the real Israel order into handing over the Mandate for Palestine (in 1948) and snatched away the future peace of this vital region at the very moment that the Turkish desolation was being removed. Out of this has come the present bitter conflict between Arab and Jew. Surely it cannot now be considered reasonable for prophetic exponents in the West, to maintain their argument that the Israeli State was divinely ordained to be a blessing to all the families of the earth. The true prophetic interpretation of the appearance of this counterfeit Israel at this Age-end period is that it constitutes a barren fig tree the tree which Jesus Christ cursed so that it withered (Matt. 21). Christian teachers who have resisted the message which identifies the true Israel of God as revealed in the peoples of present-day Celto-Saxondom have thereby wrongly glorified the counterfeit Israel in Palestine, stand to be confounded before long.

3 GOD S LAND COVENANT WITH ISRAEL When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel. For the LORD S portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance. Deut. 32:8-9 ISRAEL S LAND MUST CORRESPOND TO ISRAEL S POPULATION If there is one promise made over and over in the unconditional Abrahamic Covenant, it is that Israel s population would explode in numbers, as the sand on the seashore, and as the stars of heaven, and as the dust of the earth. Gen. 13:16; 15:5; 22:17; 28:14; 32:12; Hos. 1:10; Heb. 11:12. Since the national boundaries of Israel s tribes would be in proportion to their population, it is clear that the Abrahamic Covenant would not be fulfilled in the little land of Palestine. God needed to clear a pathway and open up a land, indeed a continent, to hold Israel s rapidly increasing populace. If we believe the Scripture promises of Israel s tremendous population growth during this age, we must locate the land that meets this requirement. When the House of Israel s tribes were ready to fulfill their prophetic destiny in the early pre-christian centuries, God led them to a land in accord with their prophetic growth needs. Historic and Biblical evidence identifies Europe as that appointed place (2 Sam 7:10). by Pastor Jory S. Brooks We can conceive nothing more futile than to attempt to understand prophecy apart from the central theme of the Bible: The Israelite truth. The church has not taken Israel s place. The Jews are not the tribe of Joseph, with his birthright blessings and destiny. Those who reject the Anglo-Israel doctrine because it seems fanciful are obliged to invent far more fanciful theories to explain how the church or the Jews can possibly inherit the promises made to the ten tribes. By J.B. Harriman in Israel and the World Crisis It is therefore a major mistake to ascribe to modern Jews an Israelite role they have thus far failed to fulfil. They are not as numerous as the sand of the seashore and the stars of heaven; they do not possess the gates of their enemies; they have not pushed the peoples to the ends of the earth by their military might; and they have certainly not blessed the families of the world. All these functions have been fulfilled by the English speaking and northern European nations instead, marking them out with absolute

4 certainty as the inheritors of the birthright promises to Israel. From All Israel Restored by Rev. Frank S. Murray The world s Jewish population for the year 2014 was 13, 900,000. Source: World Jewish Population, The American Jewish Year Book (2012) (2014) The world s core Jewish population in early 2014 was estimated at 14.2 million people (around 0.2% of the world population). Source: Wikipedia To believe that the Jews are Israel and the modern Zionist State as the Biblical fulfilment of Israel s restoration is to limit God s promises in the Abrahamic Covenant and the Birthright of Joseph. Only in the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic and related people of Northwestern European descent (once known as Christendom) have the prophecies concerning the Abrahamic, Isaac, Jacob-Israel family been fulfilled.
