5. A most difficult and distasteful topic to have to address
… and I, personally, must look at what my own agenda is, in the light of an article by Neon Revolt on Gab. I’m going to run part but not all of it … easy enough for you to find on Gab, it’s new.
My agenda? Politically, you know it from N.O. and Unherdables … vaguely speaking, the politics of the average western person, the working person, male and female, protection of them and their children, hardwired against those who would harm our society, from fanatics through to the loony left who allow the worst elements in to harm us, support for those in other western societies facing the same dilemmas.
Nationally … for Britain, plus Ireland to a point, to any western nation’s stalwarts, Oz downunder, NZ, Canada, South African Brits and Boers … and so on. Russia to a point, due to my long time there.
Religiously, privately Christian although I must stand up for the gospels publicly against those trying to attack them … in that sense non-denominational, though noting errors and foibles in all denominations. For example, it’s not a main topic but around Easter time or if some gays prosecute a Christian couple for refusing to bake a cake … for sure I’ll join those calling it out.
And then we finally must face the eternal dilemma, as Christians … those Jewish authorities who stirred up the people against Jesus. These are the ones Neon Revolt targets, except he goes far further … and I do not. To his text, heavily abridged, I do warn you … HQ is not Gab:
The Evangiboomer urge to appeal to Jewish traditions during Holy Week is insidious, (and do things like host Passover Seders) […] Therefore, to that end, I present to you the words of SAINT John Chrysostom, who I can assure you, was a far better Christian than either you or I. His words would make modern preachers blush, precisely because they are exactly what they need to hear the most:
>But now that the Jewish festivals are close by and at the very door […] I am afraid that, because of their ill-suited association and deep ignorance, some Christians may partake in the Jews’ transgressions; once they have done so, I fear my homilies on these transgressions will be in vain. For if they hear no word from me today, they will then join the Jews in their fasts; once they have committed this sin it will be useless for me to apply the remedy…
Listen to the prophets; rather, listen to God and with how strong a statement he turns his back on them: “I have found your festivals hateful, I have thrust them away from myself”. (see: Amos 5:21-24)
JH: That’s worth exploring, methinks, shall go and read that now.
[1] Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
[2] The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
[3] For thus saith the Lord GOD …..
[…]
[25] Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
[26] But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
[27] Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.
Continuing:
>Before they committed the crime of crimes, before they killed their Master, before the cross, before the slaying of Christ, it was an abomination. Is it not now all the more an abomination? And yet what is more fragrant than incense? But God looks not to the nature of the gifts but to the intention of those who bring them; it is this intention that he judges their offerings…
>”This is the temple of the Lord! The temple of the Lord”! What the prophet says is that the temple does not make holy those who gather there, but those who gather there make the temple holy. If the temple did not help at a time when the Cherubim and the Ark were there, much less will it help now that all those things are gone.
>Tell me this. If a man were to have slain your son, would you endure to look upon him, or accept his greeting?
JH: What I’m getting from this is … it’s railing against those, esp. the high priests, the high ups, the priestly, druidic caste, the synods, the robe and pointy hat wearers, chanting gobbledegook and swinging incense, allowing a sun symbol to be worshipped behind the cross … bowing down to statues of Mary … it rejects those who know and yet allow the twisting and dirtying to take place … people like Bergoglio, Welby, tele-evangelists, et al … that White House “faith” High Official.
From Wiki:
The Book of Amos is the third of the Twelve Minor Prophets in the Christian Old Testament and Jewish Tanakh and the second in the Greek Septuagint. The Book of Amos has nine chapters. According to the Bible, Amos was an older contemporary of Hosea and Isaiah, and was active c. 750 BC during the reign of Jeroboam II (788–747 BC) of Samaria (Northern Israel), while Uzziah was King of Judah. Amos is said to have lived in the kingdom of Judah but preached in the northern Kingdom of Israel.
JH: It’s always the common person who gets it in the neck, comes off worst. And if corruptions come into what was laid down in, say, Exodus and Leviticus, then the obvious question is why? Who caused the people to go astray? There’s a clue in the garden of Eden story. In 2025, after years of Tory corruption, softening up by very bad people, the coup de grace is ushered in by the controlling force, via the vile Starmer puppet, to render Britain unrecognisable.
Very easy to see then, in the light of all the above, why Jesus railed against the “whited sepulchres”, why he overturned the moneylenders’ tables in the temple territory. Does that mean I must hate all Jews? Can’t see why. But those leading them astray? Different matter. Tolerance of wrong is no virtue, loony left. …/END for now.
