Let that headline settle in your mind and heart. You don’t even have to be pro-Israel to find it disturbing. And it may be one of the most significant “signs of the times” today. One of my favorite writers, Jonathan Brentner, states, “The steadily intensifying antisemitism of our day points to the reality of the rapidlyapproaching Tribulation period. It’s one of the more distinguishing signs of our time because it aligns with so many prophecies that predict hatred for Israel and the Jews during the last days.” U.S. Democrats Almost all members of the Democrat Party in Washington have turned on Israel. (This includes most left leaning parties in the Western World) They have approved financial aid to Israel since 1950 and much more after 1973. In recent years, it has been $3 billion a year—which they now wish to cancel. According to Pew Research, eight-out-of-ten Democrats view Israel unfavorably. Consider that as recently as 2015, most all Democrats were pro-Israel. When the October 7 slaughter took place, Leftists decided that was the time to switch sides and cheer for the barbarians—not Israel! The Jews Are On Everybody’s List Britain’s most senior police officer warned that antisemitism has reached unprecedented levels, saying Jewish communities face their greatest threat to date as authorities confront a series of attacks and rising tensions. It is not uncommon today to hear people state that the Jew-hatred of the 21st Century is comparable to the hatred that led to near genocide of the Jews in the 1930s. Mark Rowley, head of the Metropolitan Police, said British Jews are being targeted by a wide range of extremist actors, which he linked, in part, to the influence of social media. He states, “The ghastly fact is that Jews are on everybody’s list, all of those hateful groups, whether you’re extreme right, whether you’re extreme left, whether you’re Islamist terrorist, whether you’re right-wing terrorist,” he told The London Times. Bad Theology Leads to Anti-Semitism In the year following the Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel by Hamas, over 10,000 antisemitic incidents were recorded in the U.S.—an increase of 140% over the previous year—and the most ever since the Anti-Defamation League began tracking antisemitic acts in 1979. On college campuses, in workplaces, among ‘influencers’ and politicians, even in some circles of the church, antisemitism is raising its ugly head. We’re seeing pastors today who refuse to support Israel because they’ve been influenced by replacement theology’s faulty interpretation of Scripture, and there are terrible repercussions for giving place to this damaging theology. When the church entertains the idea that God has somehow replaced His covenant with the Jewish people, it provides fuel for the fire of those who would do Israel harm.” And never forget that it was replacement theology that allowed many in Germany to go along with Hitler’s slaughter of the Jews. Dark and Disturbing Once again, Canada has received a failing report card on its treatment of its Jewish community. The results were not only terrible—the findings were dark and disturbing. Canada as facing a ‘national crisis of antisemitism.’” Fleeing” to Israel for Safety? From 2021 to 2025, antisemitic incidents increased by 46% in Argentina, 60% in Canada, 64% in the United Kingdom, 124% in France, 131% in the United States, 215% in Germany, and 270% in Australia. As the headline to this article states, this is the greatest threat to Jews ever because this time it is global. From Argentina to Australia, Jewish people across the globe report hiding their Jewish identity in public and questioning whether they have a future in their home countries. And yes, God allows some of this calamity as it drives many of them home to Israel. Indeed, tens of thousands are seeking safety in Israel. What You Can Do ? Reach out and stand with the local Jewish community. Go to your local synagogue, call the rabbi and take him for lunch or coffee. Tell him that, as a Bible-believing Christian, you love and stand with Israel and the Jewish people.” He concludes, “Support ministries that stand with Israel & that bless Israel and share the gospel—the good news of Israel’s Messiah— with the Jewish people. Above all, be a Christlike witness, responding with truth from God’s word, compassion, and courage.” How Odd of God to Choose the Jews And always “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” (Psalm 122:6). It is, in fact, a commandment! Christians may be their last loyal friend. Someone once wrote: How odd of God to choose the Jews, but not so odd, as those who choose, the Jewish God, yet spurn the Jews.

How did we get here? Even in Australia Jewish people aren't safe anymore. This Jew hatred doesn't make sense unless you start looking into the spiritual roots & history. Again a test for the church in Australia & worldwide. The church failed miserably standing up against the Covid mandates & moved again to church as "normal". Now we are at another crossroads, yes here do you & your church stand? To be antisemitic & a Christian; they don't go together! You might say but I don't speak bad about them, but doing nothing is agreeing, remaining silent is condoning. Learn the lesson form the church in Germany from 1933-1940; their silence indirectly led to 6 million Jews to be killed.

I am posting this article in response to recent attacks on a Jewish restaurant & synagogue in Melbourne. How timely that we as pastors on behalf of Harvest Church Caloundra sent an email to every synagogue in Australia containing the following words: " Dear Jewish friends We sent a message of moral support before, but in the light of all recent events, I would like to reaffirm that our support as a church for Israel, the Jewish Community worldwide, in Australia & Brisbane is unwavering. We do not agree with the stand or lack thereof of the Australian Government. We want you to know that you are not standing alone. " I also encourage you to listen to this podcast: Dennis Prager GOES OFF on The Real Reason Jew-Hatred Exists: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzVY6_AR3qA

A historic Jackson, Mississippi, synagogue was set on fire earlier this year by a young man who claimed to be a Christian. Unfortunately, many people today who say they are Christians are misled antisemites. In the case of Stephen Spencer Pittman, 19, surveillance footage showed him inside Beth Israel Congregation shortly after 3 a.m., pouring gasoline on the floor and furniture before the fire began. The flames charred the synagogue’s offices and library and destroyed two Torah scrolls. He called the building a “synagogue of Satan,” a reference to two verses in the book of Revelation (2:9; 3:9). Pittman followed social media accounts associated with the Christian alt-right, a term sometimes attributed to faithful followers of Christ but more often to radicalized antisemites masquerading as Christians. These people post antisemitic conspiracy theories about Jewish control of society and invoke language commonly associated with Holocaust revisionism and denial. Pittman appeared to absorb this material. His final public Instagram post showed a cartoon princess pushing a Jewish caricature into a swimming pool. Hours later, Pittman broke into Beth Israel and set it on fire. After the attack, he sent his father a photo of the back of the building with the message “There’s a furnace in the back.” His father reported him to authorities after Pittman confessed. According to an FBI affidavit, Pittman said “he was due for a homerun and ‘I did my research.’” He “laughed as he told his father what he did and said he finally got them.” When advised of his legal rights in court two days later, he responded, “Jesus Christ is Lord.” For Bible-believing Christians, antisemitism espoused by professing believers is especially troubling. After all, we affirm that Jesus Christ is Lord too. But today, once-trusted media figures claiming the mantle of Christian values promote anti-Jewish rhetoric. Former Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson, who long advocated for biblical principles, now targets the Jewish people and those who love them. He has criticized Christian love for Israel and platformed anti-Zionists such as Rev. Munther Isaac, Holocaust revisionist Darryl Cooper, and self-proclaimed antisemite Nick Fuentes, often without meaningful critique. In his interview with Fuentes, Carlson expressed his animosity toward Christian supporters of Israel: “How do you explain [Mike] Huckabee, Ted Cruz . . . who I’ve seen be seized by this brain virus, and they’re not Jewish. Most of them are self-described Christians. And then the Christian Zionists. . . . I dislike them more than anybody . . . because it’s Christian heresy, and I’m offended by that as a Christian.” At conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, Carlson insinuated Jewish involvement in Kirk’s assassination, comparing it to his imagined version of Jesus’ crucifixion: “I can just sort of picture the scene in a lamplit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus thinking about, ‘What do we do about this guy telling the truth about us? . . . Why don’t we just kill him?’” Political commentator Candace Owens, once known as a news pundit with a Christian perspective, now promotes false, anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. She recently asserted that “Jewish people were in control of the slave trade” and that Jews who follow the Talmud “think that [Gentiles] are animals.” Owens and Carlson were named “Antisemite of the Year” by the advocacy group Stop Antisemitism in 2024 and 2025, respectively. This rising antisemitic rhetoric from those claiming the name of Christ must be confronted. It’s affecting the Jewish people in tangible, sometimes bloody ways; and we must denounce it wherever it surfaces. For the many Christians who support Israel and the Jewish people, Scripture—not influencers—must remain our authority. There, we find Paul’s admonition to Gentile believers not to “boast against” the Jewish people, “for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable” (Rom. 11:18, 29). This is the proof that Anti-Semitism , based on so called "Israel Replacement Theology", has taken a firm hold in a 'Christian" apostate church

https://youtu.be/GbKABvJby3E Written by Kym Farnik 14 July 2026 Australia is facing a moment of moral reckoning. Recent reporting — including statements from Israel’s new ambassador to Australia, Dr Hillel Newman, and a powerful press release from the Indigenous Friends of Israel — reveals a disturbing truth: antisemitism in Australia has surged to levels worse than those in Muslim-majority nations where Newman previously served. For Christians, this is not merely a political or cultural issue. It is a spiritual crisis, a test of whether we will stand with truth, reject hatred, and defend the people whom Scripture calls “the apple of His eye” (Zechariah 2:8). Ambassador Hillel Newman’s Warning: “I Have Never Seen Such Hatred” Dr Hillel Newman, who has served Israel for 26 years across multiple continents, delivered a sobering assessment: Australia’s antisemitism is the worst he has ever encountered. His observations include: Wild, unfounded accusations against Israel — including medieval-style “blood libel” myths — are being normalised in public discourse. Antisemitism is increasingly disguised as humanitarian concern, where hatred of Israel is framed as moral virtue. Progressive activists who champion indigenous land rights often deny the Jewish people’s historic connection to Israel, despite overwhelming biblical, archaeological, and historical evidence. The tolerance of extreme anti‑Israel rhetoric risks fuelling further violence, such as the Bondi Beach terror attack. Newman’s message is clear: Australia is in spiritual and moral danger when hatred becomes fashionable and truth becomes optional. Indigenous Friends of Israel: “To Our Shame” The Indigenous Friends of Israel (IFOI), led by Norman and Barbara Miller, responded with a powerful press release echoing Ambassador Newman’s concern. The press release key points include: It is to Australia’s shame that antisemitism has reached such extreme levels. The claim that “Jews are colonisers” and “Palestinians are indigenous” is historically false. They emphasise: Jews have a 4,000‑year history in Israel. Arabs arrived as colonisers in the 7th century. The Romans renamed Judea “Palestine” in 135 CE to sever Jewish identity from the land. Israel is the only successful indigenous decolonisation project in world history, restored in 1948. Israel is not an apartheid state: Arabs have served in the Knesset since 1949. Arab citizens participate fully in Israel’s judiciary, medical, educational, and professional sectors. Israel suffered a genocidal attack on October 7, yet celebrations of Jewish suffering occurred in Australia before Israel even responded. Their message is blunt: antisemitism in Australia is not about justice — it is about hatred. Australia at a Crossroads The reporting from The Australian reinforces Newman’s warnings: Australia’s political climate is shifting, with elements of the national conversation increasingly hostile toward Israel. The ALP’s draft platform appears to intensify pressure on Israel while softening expectations on Palestinian leadership. This political drift matters because: Narratives shape culture, and culture shapes behaviour. When Israel is demonised, Jews in Australia suffer. When truth is abandoned, violence becomes thinkable. Christians must recognise that antisemitism is not merely a social issue — it is a spiritual attack on God’s covenant people. A Moment of Unity: Yom Ha’atzma’ut in Sydney Amid rising hostility, Sydney’s Yom Ha’atzma’ut (Israel Independence Day) celebration offered a contrasting picture: unity, resilience, and hope. Some highlights of the event: Political leaders, diplomats, and Jewish community members gathered to celebrate Israel’s independence. NSW Premier Chris Minns linked the event to the trauma of the Bondi Beach attack and the ongoing Royal Commission into Antisemitism. David Ossip, President of the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies, emphasised Israel’s resilience and its role as the answer to Jewish powerlessness. Ambassador Newman attended, reinforcing the message that Israel’s presence is essential for Jewish safety worldwide. This event demonstrated that solidarity is possible, even in dark times. A Christian Response: Why This Matters to the Church From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture commands Christians to: Bless Israel (Genesis 12:3 and Numbers 24:9) Pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6) Stand against hatred and injustice (Proverbs 31:8–9) Expose the works of darkness (Ephesians 5:11) Antisemitism is not just racism — it is a demonic ideology that seeks to destroy the people through whom God brought salvation into the world. Jesus himself was Jewish. The apostles were Jewish. The Scriptures were written by Jewish hands under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. To hate Jews is to hate the story God wrote. Christians must therefore: Reject antisemitism in all its forms Confront lies about Israel Defend truth in public discourse Stand with Jewish Australians Support Indigenous voices who affirm Israel’s legitimacy Pray for Ambassador Newman and Israel’s diplomatic mission in Australia This is not political activism — it is obedience to Christ. The Spiritual Battle Behind Antisemitism Antisemitism has always been a spiritual battle: Pharaoh tried to destroy the Hebrews. Haman plotted genocide. Rome scattered the Jewish people. Hitler murdered six million. Hamas attempted genocide on October 7. And now, in Australia, hatred is rising again. Why? Because Satan hates the people God chose to reveal his covenant, his Messiah, and his redemption. When antisemitism rises, it is a sign that spiritual darkness is gaining ground. Christians must respond not with silence, but with prayer, truth, courage, and love. Australia’s Responsibility Australia is a nation blessed with freedom, prosperity, and multicultural harmony. But these blessings come with responsibility. When antisemitism becomes normalised: Our moral foundations crack. Our social cohesion collapses. Our witness as a Christian-influenced nation is compromised. Ambassador Newman’s warning is a prophetic call: Australia must choose truth over hatred, courage over cowardice, and righteousness over moral confusion. Stand, Speak, Pray The media release by IFOI and the article in The Australian paint a sobering picture: Australia is becoming one of the most antisemitic nations in the Western world. But Christians are called to be salt and light. We must: Stand with Israel Support Jewish Australians Honour Indigenous voices who defend truth Reject lies and propaganda Pray for Ambassador Newman Confront antisemitism wherever it appears This is our moment to shine the light of Christ into a darkening world.

Prayer is key, for our personal walk of faith, for growing in faith for the local church, for the pastors, for the Government of your Country, for healing for deliverance for revival for drawing near to God.......... and yet this is often the most ignored & attacked aspect of our walk with Christ & Church life I hope that that teaching notes, quotes & insights below will encourage to pray more, correctly, intensely & sincerely.

This Feast of Trumpets, the Hebrew calendar turns to 5787. According to traditional Jewish chronology, that means 5,787 years from the creation of Adam. Except there is a problem with the calendar. A real one. The traditional chronology comes largely through Seder Olam Rabbah, an ancient rabbinic chronology. When you reach the Persian period, its timeline becomes dramatically shorter than the chronology reconstructed from Persian, Babylonian and Greek history. Traditional Jewish chronology places the destruction of the First Temple around 422 BC. Modern historical chronology places it around 587 or 586 BC. That is roughly a 165 year difference. It gets even more interesting when you look at Persia itself. Conventional chronology gives Persian rule over the region roughly 207 years. Seder Olam compresses the Persian period to only about 34 years. This is where some prophecy researchers start doing some very interesting math. There are proposed chronologies floating around that attempt to restore more than the standard 165 year discrepancy. One commonly repeated calculation uses 207 years. If you applied a 207 year correction to 5787, you would get this. 5787 + 207 = 5994. Six years from the year 6000. Now before somebody screenshots that sentence and tells Facebook I set the date of the rapture, read it again. I'm not saying the calendar has been proven to be exactly 207 years wrong. It hasn't. The 207 years refers to the approximate length assigned to the Persian period in conventional chronology, not 207 proven missing years. The historically recognized discrepancy around the destruction of the First Temple is closer to 165 years. Still, I understand why the theory gets people's attention. Because year 6000 has been sitting in Jewish thought for a very long time. The Talmud records this ancient teaching. “Six thousand years is the duration of the world.” Sanhedrin 97a It goes on to compare the seventh thousand years with Sabbath rest. Think about the pattern. God worked six days and rested on the seventh. Psalm 90:4 says, “For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past” Peter writes, “One day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” 2 Peter 3:8 Ancient Jewish teachers saw human history through that same creation week pattern. Six thousand years followed by a seventh millennium of rest. Then Christians open Revelation 20 and find Jesus Christ reigning for one thousand years. That's where this becomes fascinating. Six days. Six thousand years. Then the seventh day. A thousand year Kingdom. Now put the disputed chronology beside Daniel's final seven years and you can understand why people are talking about it. If the 207 year correction were right, 5787 would correspond approximately to 5994, leaving about six years until 6000. I'm not building doctrine on that calculation. I'm certainly not setting a date. I'm showing you why the discussion exists. He did command us to watch. “Watch therefore: for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.” Matthew 24:42 Maybe we're 48 years from the 6000 year marker. Maybe somebody eventually demonstrates that the chronology is off by considerably more. Or neither calculation has anything whatsoever to do with the timing of the Lord's return. Either way, I'm watching.

Humanity united around a centralized system, a common language, and a shared ambition that ultimately exalted man rather than God. So here is the question we should be asking today: What will be the next global disaster or worldwide crisis that becomes the catalyst for another massive restructuring of the world? Could a future crisis be used to accelerate global governance, digital identification, centralized financial control, artificial intelligence, surveillance, and the kind of system Revelation warns will one day culminate in the Beast system? History shows that major crises often become turning points. Babel reminds us that when humanity seeks unity, power, and control apart from God, judgment can follow. “Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.” — Genesis 11:7 The question is not simply what is being built. The question is what event could suddenly cause the whole world to accept it?
