Netanyahu Addressing CUFI and John Hagee

On March 18, 2012, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed John Hagee and a large group of American Christians United for Israel (CUFI) in Jerusalem. Among the heresies said there, Netanyahu was compared to Moses, King David, and the Messiah. Both sides showed matchless faithfulness to each other, while candidly ignoring God. Two days before that, leading Hebrew writer A.B. Yehoshua said in a formal forum that “American Jews are only partial Jews while Israeli Jews are total Jews.” Israel’s odd new alliances seem to be a prelude for an Armageddon-styled war in the nearby future.

Is Netanyahu the Messiah?

American Evangelical pastor John Hagee heads the largest pro-Israel lobby group in the United States. Despite his Christians United for Israel organization having over a million members and his control over Global Evangelism Television (GETV), he finds time also for the John Hagee Ministries, which broadcasts in the United States on 160 TV stations, 50 radio stations, and eight networks, with access to 99 million homes.

Considering this, it is surprising that he is also a senior pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, a non-denominational charismatic megachurch with more than 19,000 active members. He is Israel’s big prize in the USA. No rabbi can compete with such influence and rating.

Without sentimentality, Israel is giving up on those rabbis for the sake of John Hagee, who had proclaimed Netanyahu as Messiah and King David. Israel and Hagee are consciously building a scenario that closely resembles the descriptions of the Battle of Armageddon in the Book of Revelations, where a false Messiah is recognized by a false clergy man, both in the service of Satan. Netanyahu would do anything for his new friends.

John Hagee

CUFI was originally formed in 1992 by David Lewis. After a period of inactivity, Hagee received permission from Lewis to use the title for his own organization, which was incorporated on February 7, 2006. Over 400 leaders, each representing a denomination, mega-church, media ministry, publishing company, or Christian university joined John Hagee’s initiative.

Hagee has been criticized for his statements about Israel, the Catholic Church, and Islam, to the extent that in 2008 he made a public apology to the Catholic Church, which was accepted by Catholic League President William Donohue. Some of his statements about Judaism would be considered by Jews as anti-Semitic.

He calls liberal Jews “poisoned” and “spiritually blind.” On March 10, 2007, he said to Talk2Action that the preemptive nuclear attack on Iran, which he supports, will lead to the death of most Jews in Israel. In his book Jerusalem Countdown, Hagee claims that Adolf Hitler was born from a lineage of “accursed, genocidally murderous half-breed Jews.” This is one of the clearest citations showing he is not a true Christian, but just another racist in the service of Zionism.

Christian Zionism is a Christian sect claiming that the return of the Jews to the Holy Land, and the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, is in accordance with Biblical prophecy and a prerequisite for the Second Coming of Jesus. John Hagee is a prominent Christian Zionist, from the sect’s branch claiming that conversion of the Jews is not necessary.

Checking his other positions on religious issues discloses him as a Pentecostal at his core, giving strong emphasis to Revelations, a book centered on the Armageddon Battle at the End of Times.

Knowing that, his saying that the Holocaust is to be blamed on Jews themselves, and that Hitler’s persecution was a “divine plan” to lead Jews to form the modern state of Israel can be understood. Yet, Christian Zionism claims are not in accordance with the Bible.

Christian Zionists invariably cite chapters 9 to 11 of the Book of Romans as a justification for their heresies. Yet, even there Apostle Paul cites from the Book of Isaiah in Romans: 9:27 “Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.” That means that only a few of Israel would return to God, no matter what. Most of ethnic-Israel does not belong to God.

Moreover, in the same chapter we read (Romans 9:8): “That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.” That means the True People of Israel are so by Faith, not by genes. Christianity is not about racism. Galatians 3:28 “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” I made a longer analysis of the issue in the True People of Israel. Zionist Christians deliver a false message even on the level of contradicting the same short text upon which they have constructed their explosive theory.

With such a background, they make the perfect ally for warmongering Zionists. Hagee supports an American-Israeli pre-emptive nuclear strike on Iran; yesterday, a joyful Netanyahu justified this atrocity when at his speech to CUFI’s leadership he said: “When Iran is funding terror and violence all over the world and is calling for our annihilation, I don’t have to explain to you why that regime can’t have nuclear weapons, our enemies don’t hate us because of what we do, but because of who we are,” he said.

Would both be kind enough to disclose their economic interests within the weapon industry? There is no doubt, Netanyahu is Hagee’s Messiah. Without Israel morally supporting him, Hagee is nothing but a heretic warmonger. Mr. Hagee—I use mister because you are not a true pastor—Christianity is about Faith and Love, not about running amok around the world killing people.
