Jews Control Media & Banking Part II

Ok, so now I come to the part of this discussion that will really separate the "men from the boys." If I actually had readership, it would likely separate them from this blog permanently.

Recall, dear non-readers, that if we agreed that Jews are vastly overrepresented on the world stage, we would set out to suggest why.

The scientist among my non readers will want some quantitative discussion of genetic superiority but that wouldn't explain the phenomenon. It would merely reveal a mechanism allowing their overrepresentation. We would still be left asking why are the Jews genetically better adapted to always come up on "the top of the heap."

Allow me then (as if you have a choice, beloved non reader) to suggest some possibilities.

When God makes a promise, is it possible that he does everything in his power to make good on that promise? Assuming you believe in God and assuming you believe he has the power and will to follow through on his plans, we must then find out what promises this God made to the ancestors of those we now call Jews. I offer you the following:

GOD’S FIRST PROMISE TO ABRAHAM – GEN 22
I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.

ONE OF GOD’S PROMISES TO MOSES – EX 19
Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.

'If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey my commands, I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees of the field their fruit. Your threshing will continue until grape harvest and the grape harvest will continue until planting, and you will eat all the food you want and live in safety in your land.

'I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove savage beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you. Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.

I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new. I will put my dwelling place among you, and I will not abhor you. I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people.

A PROMISE TO BE REPEATED TO ISRAELITE CHLDREN – DEUT 6
The LORD commanded us to obey all these decrees and to fear the LORD our God, so that we might always prosper and be kept alive, as is the case today.

I could go on for a long time with a litany of promises that God has made to no other people. The point is that the Jews are clearly overrepresented in all arenas of human activity and there is no good explanation for it unless you are willing to believe that the Creator of the universe made many promises and his word is good.

If I were the only person to whom this had occurred I wold still be assured of its correctness but you would not. So consider some people that the world has judged smart guys who felt there was something uncanny about the Jewish presence in the world.

Blaise Pascal
John Adams
Leo Tolsty
Mark Twain
Winston Churchill
Friedrich Nietzsche
Will Durant
Woodrow Wilson
Prof Huston Smith
Adolf Hitler

The bottom line is that the reason the Jews are so disproportionately represented in the world is because they have "a friend in high places." So what is the right response to this "favorite son" status by us non-Jews?

I guess I will takle this next. If you don't think I am crazy yet then hold on to your hats!

JEEEESUS CHRIST !?@#?!?!?#

OK, so I have tried to be good and use the white bread Greek method of referring to the guy about whom the New Testament was written – Jesus Christ.

I can’t keep using this name to refer to Him for several reasons:

1) Jesus is some Greek bastardization of Yeshua or Yehoshua. Since his name would have been spoken and written in Hebrew and/or Aramaic, anything we come up with will be a transliterated approximation anyway, but anything is better than Jesus. Some have suggested that the name Jesus (particularly as Hispanics pronounce it) is related to the God Zeus. Be that as it may, I want to call Him something approximating what His friends called Him and they most assuredly did not call Him Jesus.

2) Christ is an anglicization of Christos which refers to one who is anointed. As I understand it, the Greeks anointed all kinds of people including wrestlers, temple prostitutes, etc. The Hebrew term Mashiach, from which we get the anglicized word Messiah, refers to a very special and unique Anointed One. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want any confusion in my own mind or anyone else’s about who I am referring to when I talk about the Anointed One

3) I don’t know how it happened but when I drop something heavy on my toes I am often heard to exclaim Jeeesus Christ!!! I suppose the commonplace quality of that name has lent itself to being used for all kinds of inappropriate reasons. The Hebrews probably used their prohibition of uttering the Name of The Ancient of Days for the purpose of not letting God’s name become common and used for all kinds of common purposes. Fortunately, the majestic sounding name Yeshua Ha Mashiach has never become a part of common parlance and is thus nicely preserved for discussing The Son of Man.

4) While the Greeks achieved some remarkable things in this world, I think their language and world view are ill suited to discussing a first century, Hebrew speaking Jew from Israel. I think language affects understanding and perception profoundly and, while I love Greek flavor in my food, I much prefer a Hebrew savor to my Bible.

5) Hebrew is much more lyrical than Greek. The patterns and rhythms of Hebrew words are just inherently more beautiful. A songwriter I met who wrote most of his songs in Hebrew told me that he read Hebrew and melodies revealed themselves. If you listen to his melodies, (Shabbat Menucha is a good one to listen to) you will be astonished at their beauty.

6) Discussions can be had with Jewish people regarding Mashiach without having to argue about Jesus. Jews generally acknowledge that a Mashiach is to come and it is not really necessary to argue about whether he has been here before. Back when I used to think I was supposed to talk to my Jewish friends about Jesus, a good Jewish friend said to me:

When The Messiah comes I am going to ask him if he has been here before. If he says yes then you win. If he says no then I win.

One of the things I like best about this story is that it captures the fact that, in large measure, our desire to convert is about winning a personal victory. I have decided to try to win victories for the King of The Universe instead.

In the final analysis the name Yeshua Ha Mashiach has so much more power and poetry to it than Jesus Christ. I hope using it from now on won't be too confusing.
