HATERS OF ISRAEL

 

A Biblical Analysis of Israel's Haters: Their Nature, Behavior, and Demise

Jonas T.  Suizo

The Israelites have been at the epicenter of religious, political, and spiritual strife throughout history. Those who assert a single spiritual identity — “one religion, one mind, one spirit” — frequently incite hatred toward Israel in the present era. These claims invoke Allah, but their understanding of God is incompatible with the God of Israel, the One who established a covenant with Abraham. Their relationship with Israel would be characterized by peace rather than conflict if they genuinely served the God of Abraham, as they claim.

 

Those who have animosity toward Israel and yet profess to serve God are not guided by the Spirit of the God of Israel, but by someone else. Paul cautioned in 2 Corinthians 11:4 that there is a risk of receiving "another Jesus," "another spirit," or "another gospel." Their fruit would demonstrate the holiness of their spirit. In Matthew 7:16, Jesus declared, "You shall know them by their fruits." Many people who claim to be proponents of peace in name and phrase nevertheless sow murder, turmoil, and violence.

 

The double-mindedness of individuals who proclaim peace with their lips yet plot devastation with their hearts is encapsulated in Psalm 120:7, which states, "I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war." The spirit that really motivates them is betrayed by their fruits, which include violence, terrorism, hatred, and defamation. Galatians 5:22–23 lists love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance as the Fruit of the Spirit. Since they embody God's holy, life-giving nature, there is no rule against them. A fake religion is exposed by the lack of these fruits.

 

One powerful tool used by haters of Israel is disinformation. Across the world — especially in Western nations — emotionally driven sympathizers, often lacking deep knowledge of historical and biblical truth, absorb and repeat lies. They become easy targets of ideological brainwashing spread by radical voices within Islam, rumors, and social media distortions.

 

Indicators of Hate Speech

Political activism is frequently used as a cover for anti-Israel sentiment. One of the most frequently propagated myths is that Israel is not indigenous to the region. However, the overwhelming weight of archeological evidence, including temples, inscriptions, and artifacts, points to the Jewish people's long-standing ties to the region. Islam, on the other hand, has no similar ancient historical claim, not even to Jerusalem, let alone Mecca.

 

Slogans like "from the river to the sea" convey a genocidal desire to exterminate Israel and are more than just political catchphrases. These statements run counter to Abraham's character, whom many of these communities refer to as their father. Jesus chastised people who claimed Abraham's name but attempted to assassinate Him in John 8:39–40, saying, "If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the acts of Abraham... Abraham was not affected by this.

 

Lesson: The Holy Owns Discernment

All people can hear God's voice, but only those who have been made holy and faultless by His grace are able to recognize it. Unknowingly, a large number of those who oppose Israel are fighting against God. Thus, take care not to be discovered opposing the Lord while believing that you are doing His will.

 

Exposing Hate Acts

Even though Israel is frequently demonized, it seldom ever starts wars. It keeps coming up in self-defense. From Hamas to the Houthis, from Iran to Lebanon, terror plots and missile assaults frequently start outside of Israel's boundaries. Israel responds by taking action to protect its citizens, not to kill innocent people.

Jewish Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters were attacked, injured, and sent to the hospital during an antisemitic outburst that took place during a UEFA Europa League game in Amsterdam on November 6–7, 2024. A football game was transformed into a terrifying scenario by flares, scooters, and organized gangs. This type of hatred is institutional and widespread. Jewish Olympians, supporters, and residents are frequently criticized for who they are rather than what they do.

In the meantime, Israelis hardly ever carry out acts of terror, such as mass murder, suicide bombings, and hijackings. These crimes, such as ISIS's beheading of 21 Christians, are abhorrent and widely denounced. However, they are frequently supported by extreme doctrines that are mistakenly referred to be sacred.

The Past vs the Present

When Israel was assaulted in the past, its people would repent and beg God for forgiveness because they knew that if their actions pleased the Lord, even their adversaries would be at peace with them (Proverbs 16:7). Instead of blaming others for their pain, they saw divine discipline and turned from their sins. Enemies of Israel today take pride in her discipline and "help forward the affliction"—actions that God disapproves of:

Zechariah 1:15 reads: "And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction."

There will be consequences for anyone who take advantage of God's brief annoyance with Israel in order to further their own murderous goals.

The Promise of God Remains

Even with Israel's flaws, God's promise with Abraham has not been violated. Our generation is still impacted by the promise found in Genesis 12:3

"I will curse the one who curses you and bless those who bless you."

God will bless Israel if she is blessed, and he will punish her if she is cursed. Israel's adversaries are not merely fighting against a country; they are fighting against the all-powerful God who has selected and protected His people throughout history.

In conclusion

Let people who claim to be of God look at their behavior, spirit, and fruit. Do they support or oppose the God of Israel? Truth, holiness, and peace draw the line, not only religion. The Bible calls us to discern as well as to believe. These days, discernment is crucial because it allows us to decide whether to support or oppose God by blessing or cursing Israel.

“He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.”

- Matthew 12:30

HATRED IN THE HEART

 

Hatred in the Heart: A Biblical Reflection on the Iranian Hostility Toward Israel

The Bible views hatred as a serious moral and spiritual illness rather than just a sentiment. It reveals hatred as an internal sickness that results in violence, dishonesty, and hypocrisy on the outside. We might consider how Iran's contemporary hostility toward Israel fits with the biblical signs of a heart that is distant from God by looking at it, particularly in light of national and religious rhetoric.

 

Hatred as Murder: The Heart of Conflict

“Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him,” as 1 John 3:15 states unequivocally. Iran’s repeated calls for the destruction of Israel reflect more than just political opposition; they reflect the very nature of hatred that the Bible condemns. Such hatred is equivalent to heart murder in the Bible. These acts, whether they take the form of demands for annihilation, support for proxy war, or military threats, demonstrate the existence of a homicidal spirit that is incompatible with God's life-giving truth.

 

Walking in Darkness While Claiming Light

Despite their animosity for Israel, many Iranian leaders say they support justice, righteousness, and even divine guidance. Iran matches the scriptural concept of walking in darkness if it views itself as a moral or spiritual lighthouse yet fosters animosity, as stated in 1 John 2:9: "He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now." A nation deluded in its own spiritual state is shown by the disparity between declared righteousness and actual hostility.

Hypocrisy in the Name of God

Iran frequently invokes the name of God in its national identity and policies. But 1 John 4:20 challenges this directly: “If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar...” The Bible teaches that love for God must be evident in love for others—especially one’s fellow human beings. A nation cannot claim divine favor while nurturing hatred in its heart, for such a stance exposes spiritual falsehood and disconnect from the true character of God.

The Slander of the Fool

Proverbs 10:18 warns, “He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.” Iranian propaganda and anti-Israel rhetoric often spread exaggerated or baseless accusations, fueling public hatred. Such slander is not wisdom, but biblical foolishness. Rather than fostering understanding or peace, these lies become tools of division, rooted in hate.

Unjust Aggression and Baseless Opposition

Iran's animosity for Israel is frequently motivated more by ideological and theological bias than by any immediate threat, as Psalm 109:3 explains of those who fight without cause: "They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause." Hatred "without a cause" exposes a heart that is prone to unjust aggressiveness, which is a grave moral failing in God's view.

Passive Hatred and Secret Plots

Leviticus 19:17 forbids hatred in the heart and calls for honest correction rather than silent contempt. Iran’s secret plotting through proxy forces and covert aggression against Israel aligns with the biblical portrait of the one who “secretly plots evil.” True love would compel confrontation for the sake of truth, not concealed hatred expressed through violence.

A Call for Heart Examination

The Bible is clear: man and God are separated by enmity in the heart. Hatred, whether in a person or a country, breeds evil, deception, and spiritual demise. Threats, defamation, and acts of violence are all manifestations of Iran's animosity for Israel, which is consistent with biblical signs of an unjustly enraged heart.

It is important to consider both the spiritual and political ramifications of the Middle East. Peace can only be established by repentance and the substitution of true love, as taught by Christ, for hatred. As we are reminded in 1 John 4:8, "He that loveth not  knoweth not God; for God is love.

 

 

 

 

BLIND SPOTS

 Blind Spots

It is an undeniable truth that humanity is finite and limited in many aspects of life. Knowledge, for instance, is an area largely driven by the spirit. In the natural world, knowledge encompasses fields like technology, science, biology, physics, astronomy, anthropology, and zoology, among others. The visible laws that define existence include the law of gravity, the laws of motion, electromagnetic laws, and the laws of thermodynamics. Similarly, there are unseen laws such as conservation laws, biological principles (genetics and natural selection), and chemical laws. Yet, laws like the law of sin and death and the laws of the spirit are often neglected.

No one individual possesses the knowledge or power to fully anticipate, predict, and control events. Every well-intentioned human endeavor for good often results in unintended and opposite consequences. This is why the world is a place of suffering, conflict, and trouble. Human knowledge is riddled with blind spots, and what may seem right to a person often leads to destruction.

By knowledge arise arguments and counterarguments. Knowledge when attached to a carnal mind breeds pride, power, and eventually corruption. Despite humanity’s efforts to achieve peace and unity, individuality, peculiarity, freedom, pleasure, and pride continually disrupt harmony. The differences in the hearts and minds of individuals influence their perceptions of good and evil, creating gaps that reveal the blind spots in human understanding. Many areas of knowledge remain unexplored—some beneficial and others harmful.

For millennia, humanity has not become inherently better. The future often appears bleak due to envy, pride, unclean minds, hatred, and wickedness. Lust and emotion cloud knowledge, leading to corrupt imaginations. Humanity has consistently failed to submit to the knowledge of God, neglecting this critical blind spot that remains unconsidered, undesired, and unexplored.

There are countless spirits—some revealed to humans and others remaining in realms of secrecy and mystery, beyond human understanding. This is why the invitation to walk with God is so vital. God reveals certain truths for humanity to use and cherish. When individuals like Moses, Jesus, the prophets, and the apostles walked with God, they transcended themselves. Their words and actions were no longer their own but were directed by the Spirit, producing parables, dark sayings, and testimonies originating from God Himself.

Their thoughts and ideas did not stem from personal knowledge, wisdom, or understanding but from obedience to a divine law and voice. Moses led Israel into unknown wildernesses and wars they had never faced. Jesus brought teachings of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding that confounded the high priests, Pharisees, and Sadducees. His message was not about earthly matters but about the Kingdom of God, which transcends the flesh and focuses on a new creation suitable for the New Heavens and the New Earth.

Jesus did not use scripture merely to persuade people but exemplified the way, the truth, and the life. The scriptures testified of Him as the Man sent by God with the Spirit of God within Him. In contrast, many modern evangelists and preachers rely solely on traditional interpretations of scripture, lacking the freshness and voice of the Spirit. The Word of God is often used according to human tradition rather than divine inspiration.

The idea of a living God with a live voice is widely rejected. Yet, God has warned of the man He will send to save and deliver humanity from sin and death. The Holy Bible clearly outlines God’s ways of salvation—He will send a Savior, a Deliverer, a Prophet, a Messenger, and a Covenant whose name is holy and reverend. However, the blind spot in human knowledge causes many to mock and deny God’s plan, standing proudly in their ignorance.

Faith comes by hearing the Word of God from the man sent by God, not by those who abuse scripture for personal gain. By their fruits, we shall know them.

The term "blind spot" refers to a situation where a person knows what they are searching for, but hasn't yet seen it. It's the expectation of seeing something that isn't visible, often due to a failure in one area despite working towards a desired effect. When tested, this blind spot reveals an area that goes unnoticed or undetected, impairing perception.

In spiritual terms, from God's perspective, a blind spot is the part of life where a person is certain in their beliefs or actions, yet the outcome is failure and disappointment. It's a place where someone may call upon God’s name, honor Him, but their heart is far from Him. It's where people may fear God but serve their own desires or idols, doing things that appear right but without true sincerity. This blind spot can be where a person might be called by God but still act like someone opposed to Him, like Judas Iscariot. It’s an area where someone may consider themselves wise yet remains ignorant of the truth. It’s the belief that one fully understands God’s word, yet still misses its deeper meaning.

A spiritual blind spot arises when a person is not spiritually circumcised, accepting only what aligns with their desires, like words from a soothsayer. It grows from rejecting the truth that the flesh opposes the spirit, and that God’s ways are not man’s ways. This is why the path to spiritual maturity involves following Christ, carrying one’s cross, and denying oneself.

When someone rejects God’s messenger, dismisses correction, refuses open rebuke (which is better than secret love), neglects the discipline God provides, and ignores the teachings of righteousness, it signifies a spiritual blind spot. The blind spot is also present when a person refuses to acknowledge the glory of God manifested through weaknesses and the message of peace on the cross.

Ultimately, the question is: who can open the eyes of a spiritually blind person? Who will admit they are blind? Unless a person is led out of their own understanding and into the light of God, they will remain spiritually impaired. After all, a blind person cannot lead another blind person through an unfamiliar world.

 In essence, the blind spot represents a person thinking they know when they actually don’t. It’s believing in one’s inherent goodness when no one is truly good, and trusting in human strength when the flesh is unreliable. It’s claiming faith when true faith is lacking, or asserting righteousness when no one is righteous.

Only through the process of spiritual rebirth, humbling oneself, and becoming meek can a person receive God’s instruction and come to the knowledge of the truth. To do so, one must quit relying on human strength and become a new creation, ready to serve God.

Contrary to popular belief, the curse of God is not a sign of hopelessness in the love of God. Rather, a curse can always be turned into a blessing. While many believe that being a homosexual is a mark of sin and death, it is important to distinguish between a curse and sin leading to death. This reminds us of the biblical truth: "There is none righteous, no, not one, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."

The curse of being a homosexual, a slave, or an exile should not be equated with sin and death. For instance, the curse God placed upon Adam and Eve, leading to their banishment from the Garden of Eden, was not an act of final condemnation but a redirection—a fall that allowed the message of the gospel and peace to reach the people outside Eden. In this context, the Spirit declares, “As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes” (Romans 11:28).

Thus, it is neither the sinner nor the one wronged by others who defines the purpose of God. The reality is that all are created equal in God's eyes, until sin, corruption, and death distort that harmony. Therefore, any person cursed by God who turns from sin will live. Conversely, anyone promised eternal life who turns to sin will face death. It is not the state of being cursed, homosexual, or otherwise that leads to death, but rather the love of sin and refusal to turn away from evil.

Ultimately, God's purpose transcends human understanding, offering grace and redemption to those who repent and align themselves with His will.

SPIRIT AT WORK

 

THE SPIRIT AT WORK

Revelation is given by God to the Holy People (Apostles and Prophets) by the Spirit.  The eligible recipients or stewards of the revelation and the mysteries of God for the generation of the righteous are only the holy ones, hence, the command for people to be holy. The holy people are the ones who devote themselves to God.

The revelation we know from Ephesians 3:1-7 is that salvation is no longer exclusive to Israel in the flesh but to Israel who are circumcised in the heart or Israel in the Spirit.  Simply put, Israel is in the Spirit and not in the Flesh! To be an Israelite is not to be a Greek or a Jew.  This idea is not a new one in the times of the apostles, then.

Matter of fact, God has been talking to all men and peoples and nations!  God talked with Adam and his generations (all of them were drowned for the evil of their imagination_ a chosen people who went corrupt, violent and evil).  God talked with Noah and his generations.

Genesis 10:5     By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

Again, God talked to Melchisedech who was not of the seed.  God talked to Hagar the bondmaid of Sarah about Ishmael’s life.  God talked to Abimelech of Gerar who was not of the seed. God talked with Abraham giving a promise that the seed will come from his own bowels named Isaac and then went on to talk to Rebekah who was a Syrian, not of the seed and mother to Jacob and Esau, that Jacob is the seed and not Esau. God talked to Israel who sojourned in Egypt for 430 years and the same seed multiplied in Egypt as prophesied.  God talked to Pharaoh of Egypt in the time of Joseph by a dream who was not of the seed. God talked (prophesied) against the sons of Noah the Canaanites of the sons of Ham that they will be replenished by Israel.  By all accounts and by the Godly vestiges found in all religion, sciences, philosophies and in many areas of discipline God is talking and revealing to all men but man would not hearken because of their flesh or natural mind, thus, the deviation from the Word of God.

Yea, by biblical history the idea of gentiles being subjected to the judgment of God is not new.  In fact, these gentiles were turned into believers before if to cite one of the many facts!

2 Chronicles 17:11    Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents, and tribute silver; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand and seven hundred rams, and seven thousand and seven hundred he goats.

You can only imagine how Paul struggled to witness on this revelation which has actually happened already, and as written, where Israel turned dogmatic of their belief that they are the only people on earth loved by God.  They failed to recognize that God loved the world even as Abraham failed to discern that Gerar under king Abimelech is a nation with the Fear of the Lord.

Now, know that the love of God is manifested by his judgment to all:

Deuteronomy 8:5    Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.

Proverbs 13:24  He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Hebrews 12:6  For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

Hebrews 12:7  If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

It is now clear that, really before Jesus was crucified, the love of God is unto all men!  What then is new? 

In matters of ways of saving people, God sent Noah to preach righteousness but was ignored, hence, the unbelievers were drowned to include the infants which you may now protest, had the flood happen today, as an ungodly act for Noah.  Know that Noah did not act by his own will but by the command of God.

2 Peter 2:5      And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

God also sent (divine providence or a blessing in disguise we may now call) Lot the nephew of Abraham to Sodom and Gomorrah to preach righteousness there but was not able to convince anyone, not even the husbands of his daughters.  Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighboring cities were burned on the day appointed.

Luke 17:28    Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

Luke 17:29    But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

2 Peter 2:7      And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:

God called and sent Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt and the very people whom he saved were eventually wasted in the desolate wilderness after 38 years of hard heartedness and rebellion against Moses and against God.

God chose and sent Joshua to continue the task to fulfil the promise of God to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in order to annihilate seven abominable nations but the people who were with Joshua were also tempted in the way as they were ensnared by the foolish prophet Balaam in the plains of Moab (Zimri and Cozbi being the  cause of the plague).

Up until the times of the Judges God raised up servants to save Israel from their enemies everytime they repent from their sins which they committed.  In sinfulness they are minished and brought low.

Psalms 107:39  Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.

Judges 2:13  And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

Judges 2:14  And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.

Judges 2:15  Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.

Judges 2:16  Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.

Judges 2:17  And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the LORD; but they did not so.

Judges 2:18 And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the LORD because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.

Judges 2:19 And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.

Judges 2:20 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;

 

God sent prophets in the times of the Kings of Israel and Judah but the same were imprisoned and persecuted and killed.  The people of God are the most controversial and misunderstood people in the world of old and expectedly today for their teaching is never of men.

Know that the prophets sent were not only exclusive to Israel but to the other nations as well!  The Gentile thing is not a new thing.  The people who profess to be wise were actually the fools for not knowing the ways of God and having not the Spirit of wisdom and understanding.

Now, is the idea of Jesus dying for the world a new one? Fools for lack of knowledge perish.  Now, is the idea of God being angry at sin a new one?  Was there a paradigm shift to the ways of God in that believing in him is salvation? 

In a way, believing is a vital point in salvation but it is not salvation itself.  One has to endure and continue to obey the command which commands are changing from time to time and from one nation to another people. 

God is alive and God is sending his holy people to bring the good tidings to a thousand generations and in every generation there is a definite peculiar people who will be sanctified and justified and then sent to preach unto the world. 

So holiness and perfection is the key to serving God which is in ministering the word and the spirit.  How can the scholars nowadays say holiness and perfection is passe?

How can people say, straining gnats and swallowing camels on the requirement in serving God which is holiness and perfection?  How can an unholy people receive the Spirit of God like the Spirit of Truth and Revelation which alone can perfect a man?

Behold, perfection and holiness is possible only when God is come in the flesh or when he raises up a man to deliver people from this evil and wicked world.  Perfection is possible because the man he will send is going to declare the command for man to obey to become holy and perfect.  Perfection and holiness becomes impossible only when man is yet filled with his flesh lust, emotion, evil imagination and uncleanness in the flesh and the spirit.

Therefore, man has to fight against his own self which is the natural enemy of God, saying, the flesh is against the spirit and the spirit is against the flesh.  This two are at enmity against each other.  This doctrine is not being taught to the people which is the doctrine of Godliness, that is, man must be holy and perfect before they are to be sent for the service.    

This world should know that salvation is but a very light thing with God for, firstly, this is only a result of serving God and, secondly,  salvation is granted to men according to God’s mercy and compassion for we are all sinners and, thirdly, because salvation is the concern of God and not man’s.  The real concern of man is really on how to make himself available for use by God.    Therefore, the very much weightier matter is perfection and holiness for this is the crux of man’s service to God.  Cunningly, the deceivers of this world romanticize salvation as the ultimate and primary goal of man in this world! 

How can man teach people of salvation when man is not perfect? How can man be an author of his salvation being not perfect? Remember, the Man of God or the ones raised by God to be his servant(s) will come in a volume of Book and it is written of them  for a testimony!  The reason why you can compare spiritual with spiritual because the life they will manifest is a prophecy in the Holy Bible.

Hebrews 5:9  And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

To magnify the error of the present day interpretation on the scriptures is to compare side by side the teaching on salvation with the teaching on perfection and holiness, among others:

To temporarily close my “arguments” (actually a revelation from the Spirit of God and I claim not to be alone in this work today_ God is talking to many of us who has a relationship with him) and to cut the story short, The teaching of man is based on the goodness of God on Man which is in the flesh, meaning, they anchor on blessings (material and spiritual unto themselves) but the teaching of the Man of God is obedience unto death not for a prize, a reward, or for a promise. Amen.
