ADL'S WAR GAMES WITH COULTER
By Rev. Ted Pike
13 Nov 07
After polling 2,000 Americans, the Anti-Defamation
League of B'nai B'rith claims 27 percent of Americans hold the "anti-Semitic” belief
that Jews were responsible for Christ's death. 1 This implies the
New Testament, which repeatedly makes this charge, is also anti-Semitic,
i.e., "hate literature." 2
For ADL's Abe Foxman, even Ann Coulter's innocent statement that
Jews are incomplete without Christ is shockingly “insensitive." ADL
says Coulter has proven her "anti-Semitic" "bigoted
and hateful views." 3 Actually, by charging Coulter with hate
for simply stating the Gospel, ADL is reviling the One who authorized
Coulter to make that claim: Jesus Christ.
But while Christianity is called anti-Semitic, it's no problem
when Jews believe their leaders had Christ executed! The Talmud --
highest ethical and religious guide for observant Jews like Foxman
-- doesn't mince words. (See, ADL's
Foxman: Man of Faith?) It says Jesus was a sorcerer and apostate
and the Pharisees legitimately had Him killed on the eve of Passover
(not by crucifixion but by stoning, burning, decapitation, and strangling).
4 The Talmud adds that Christ is now in hell, writhing in boiling
hot semen. 5
Our humanity recoils before such satanic hatred and blasphemy against
the Creator of all things.
ADL on the Attack
Like the Talmud, ADL is on the attack – against not only
Coulter but any Christian leader who publicly asserts a Biblical
perspective toward Jews. ADL and Jewish-dominated media (not Christian
leaders) set the moral trends of our largely secular society. ADL
teaches that evangelical Christianity is a hateful, hurtful belief
system that created anti-Semitism and is ultimately responsible for
the Holocaust. It should be restricted and despised, in other
words, persecuted. (See, ADL's
Foxman: New Testament is Anti-Semitic)
When ADL bites down, it doesn't let go; like a pit bull, it keeps
grinding. I saw this in the late 1970s when ADL and Jewish
media decided to relentlessly push homosexuality and gay rights down
the throat of Christian America. I thought ADL's new policy was the
biggest mistake it could make -- that it would incite Christian conservatives
and blue collar Americans to overthrow the liberal power structure
in America. How wrong I was! America at first abhorred,
then endured, and now very largely embraces ADL's "tolerant" pro-homosexual
policy.
ADL knows that if it says Christianity is anti-Semitic and repeats
it long enough, people will get used to it. Eventually, it will be
accepted as reality.
Make no mistake. ADL now aggressively penetrates the spiritual
airspace of Christianity, testing what resistance arises. Incredibly
there has been virtually no evangelical opposition to its strafing
of Coulter, just as Hitler encountered little world protest after
his aerial bombing of the Spanish village of Guernica in 1939. ADL
must be delighted with the virtual absence of evangelical outcry. Few
missiles of truth have been fired against ADL from Christian/conservative
print media. Few Christian fighters have launched into
the airwaves or cyberspace to defend Coulter. Why? Christian leaders
fear they will also be attacked as anti-Semitic.
Their cowardice encourages ADL to proceed into outright persecution
of Christians -- primarily through their hate and bias crimes laws.
(Watch Hate
Laws: Making Criminals of Christians) Because Christian
leaders can’t bring themselves to even name ADL as the arch
opponent of Christian civilization, they can't save America or Christianity.
(Watch Ted Pike's Report "BETRAYED!
New Right Leaders Help Pass Hate Bill") Like Chamberlain
and Asquith of pre-WWII Europe who appeased Hitler, they are the
timorous caretakers of our declining republic -- not its deliverers.
Overcoming “Fear of the Jews”
Such indecision before evil results from fearing man more than
we trust God. To overcome that fear, all Christians must die to their
self-will and to reason and sight as their ultimate guidance system.
They must trust God alone. Christ described this as His barest requirement
to even be a Christian: "No one of you can be my disciple who
does not give up all his own possessions."(Lk.14:33) When we
are willing to hate even our own lives for the sake of Christ's kingdom
truth, His Holy Spirit enters our lives with power. He gives us confidence
in His ability to save and preserve. We receive courage which is
not of this world.
Much of the American church, however, lacks this faith. It values
safety more than truth. That's why so many Christian leaders cower
before ADL and its threat of being tarred anti-Semitic. They fear
losing financial support, material possessions, and prestige; they
fear controversy. Thus they do nothing to expose what is emerging
as the greatest threat to Christianity in history: militant Jewish
anti-Christianity radiating from ADL and its parent organization,
B'nai B'rith International.
There is no security outside of God. Ironically, Christian civilization,
far from finding safety through appeasement, predictably finds itself
increasingly endangered within a hostile world.
Faith Creates Fighters for Freedom
At the beginning of the 19th century, another international bully,
Napoleon, seemed invincible. He threatened to conquer not just Europe
but England. In response, Admiral Nelson installed a plaque
in every British warship saying, "Fear God, fear the king, and
fear no man!" The British navy gained a reputation for courage
not only against Napoleon but in pursuing pirates, the high seas'
bullies, to the remotest parts of the world. When a pirate was finally
caught, his corpse was imprisoned in an iron cage and hung at the
mouth of the harbor to remind every mariner what the British navy
had in store for anarchists.
The British navy's esprit de corps also made it unthinkable to
abandon a British ship under attack. Evangelicals' shameful lack
of support for Coulter reveals that the American church will abandon
its wounded. It will leave them to die.
What if Christians today had the spiritual power of our beginnings?
Ideological pirates like Foxman would be intellectually hunted by
a host of Christian defenders and exposed to public shame. Never
again would Christians like Ann Coulter, innocently sharing the Gospel,
be hung out to dry. Instead, ADL would be twisting in the wind.
