Judaizing Christianity: Is John Hagee the Prophet—the "Elijah" / "John the Baptist"—of the Jewish Anti-Christ?

I have been warning that World Jewry already has its anti-Christ—Messiah (Chabad Sanhedrin's Moshiach ben wannabe) prepared and awaiting the construction of the Jewish Temple on the site of the Al Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock. I have also been warning that Jewry wants to provoke a war between Christendom and Islam which will leave the Jews standing as masters of the Earth. I have also warned that the Jewish "Messiah" will reject Jesus and mock him, for the Jewish Messiah, who walks the Earth today impatiently waiting to announce himself to the World as if God on Earth, hates the fact that Jesus dared to be Messiah of the Jews.
In Jewish prophecy, there will be a prophet who will announce the coming of the Messiah. His name will be Elijah. The Jewish book of Malachi 3:1; 4:5, states:
"3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts. [***] 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:"
Christians believe that John the Baptist was "Elijah" who paved the way for Jesus "Christ", Moshiach Yeshua, the "Anointed" son of God (Matthew 3; 11:10; 17:10-13). However, the anti-Christ, who must of necessity pretend to be the fulfillment of Jewish messianic prophecy, will also have his "Elijah" / "John the Baptist", which pseudo-Elijah will deny that Jesus was the "Christ", the "Messiah", the "Anointed", the "Moshiach"—and will announce the arrival of the Jewish anti-Christ, claiming that the Jewish anti-Christ is the true Messiah.
Jewry mocks Christian beliefs and tells Christian Zionists to await the coming of the Messiah who will then tell the World whether he is Jesus or not, knowing full well that their assumed Messiah is alive today and is waiting to genocide all Christians and blot out the name of Jesus. They are preparing Christians for the day when the Jewish King announces himself and is anointed in the Temple. On this day they will insist that Christians worship this Jewish King and deny Jesus or be beheaded.
Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburg is more determined. He knows that in the near future the Land of Israel is about to expand. He writes, "It is our duty to force all mankind to accept the seven Noahide laws, and if not—they will be killed." (Ma'ariv, 10/6/04)

We find John Hagee, who has subverted Christianity and converted it into the heresy of anti-Christian Zionism, Hagee who puts Israel first, we find Hagee declaring that Jesus was not the Messiah of the Jews, which means that the Messiah must therefore be yet to come.
Jesus didnt say "no" to noahide, HE WAS THE AUTHOR OF IT

Pickles "right hand", his god is THE BEAST. Its the SON OF MAN, JESUS "THE KIKE" who has kicked God the father of the throne and sits on it yonder in heaven........THE ABOMINATION THAT MAKETH DESOLATE!) Jason Guenther 34th sideline, Pickering Ontario Canada

This fits the agenda of Jewry perfectly. The Jews fear the Christian prophecies which demand the conversion of a remnant of Jews to Christianity and the destruction of the rest. The Jews resent Christian worship of Jesus Christ and have campaigned to divide and destroy Christianity for thousands of years. For thousands of years, Jews have desired to steal Palestine and build a Jewish Temple. They await the anointing of their Jewish King who will exterminate the hated Goyim.
What has stood in their way? Christianty's belief that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah, and Islam's control of Palestine and the "Temple Mount". Hagee's teachings would destroy Christianity (impossible) and demolish Islam, and make room for the rule of anti-Christ / Al Dajjal. He is an obvious and obedient servant of Jewry. By definition, his teachings are anti-Christ. I John 2:22-23 states:
"Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [but] he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also."
Hagee's ministry, if successful, will also fulfil the Noahide Laws, for by his doctrines true Christians would become idolaters, worshiping an insurrectionist as if the anointed son of God. The doctrine of the trinity would have to be abandoned. (There are no three gods) Most importantly, observe how way is being made for the enthronement of the anti-Christ, the modern Messiah of the Jews, and for former Christians to worship this genocidal King as if God Himself, and to serve him as his army to genocide real Christians and Moslems—and Buddhists, Hindus, atheists, etc. Again, I warn you that this man is alive today and seeks to announce himself as King of the Jews.
2 thes.1: Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2: That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and
that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4: Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5: Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6: And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7: For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8: And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10: And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11: And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Jewry's ultimate goal is to turn Christians into an anti-Christian army with which to smash Islam—Jacob will use Esau as his soldiers. They also want to turn Christians into obedient slaves who worship the Jewish King, a living breathing man walking the Earth this very day, as if he, the Jewish King, were God. They want, as I have been saying, to artificially fulfill Jewish messianic prophecy, and build the Jewish Temple, anoint their King as if God on the Earth to rule the World from Jerusalem, and to enslave and genocide all non-Jews. Hagee's propaganda in effect "prophecies" this rise of the Jewish King / anti-Christ and gives World Jewry what it wants.
Jewry is agitating for World War III so that they can artificially fulfill their Jewish religious myths. They have already accomplished the creation of the Jewish State. The Jewish King is eager to ascend his throne in his lifetime and is putting tremendous pressure on the organs of Jewish power to make this 2,500 year old dream a present day reality. He is moving a little too fast and is exposing his agenda to the World. If we work hard, we can make his desperate attempts to deceive us his very undoing.

Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein has been saying this for years and has been villified for it. While I do not agree with everything he does, one cannot escape his role in fostering these kinds of relationships. I think it’s time for the rest of the Torah world to recognize this too and instead of villifying him, give him the Hakaras HaTov he so richly deserves.

I can see no controversy in either the pro-Jewish positions taken by Rev. Hagee, nor our positive reaction to him. The fact that non-Orthodox have greater trouble in acknowledging a friend is sad but it is always welcome that a magazine like Hadassah that still puts abortion rights at the head of its agenda will at least positively profile a pro-Israel ally like Rev. Hagee.
There is a great opportunity for the Orthodox world regarding the support of so many evangelical Christians. They like to see Torah Jews and we should be pleased to be acknowledged. There is growing opportunity to influence the Christian world and by extension, the portion of American society most prone to be nourished with Torah wisdom. Some of these Christian friends read this web blog and many thousands regularly are inspired by Chabad.org and Aish.com and so many others.

I have two objections to what was written. First, the triumphalist assertion that “the Orthodox community will become the dominant and surviving group sooner or later.” While members of a movement should not be excoriated for predicting its rise, I’m disgusted by the prediction of the destruction of other groups of Judaism implied by the word ‘surviving’.
Throughout Jewish history there have been Jews of various brands, sects, levels and types of observance, and so forth. Is there anything so different about today that makes you believe that Orthodoxy alone will survive? What is this Divine Providence of changed times that you refer to? Or does saying so simply excuse you from dealing with your co-religionists?
Perhaps the latter is correct. Your article, Rabbi Adlerstein, can be easily read as a call for engagement with Christian Evangelicals at the expense of engagement with non-Orthodox Jews, “who do not really speak the same language” anyway. The great irony is that you are inviting the wolf through the front door for fear of the black sheep in your living room.

The Evangelical Christian community, as exemplified by Pastor Hagee and Focus on the Family, is probably the only element in American society that prevents total degeneracy into Sodom-like behavior.
Rv:11:8: And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
They are probably the ones who will survive into the Messianic millenium and be counted among “the righteous gentiles, who fear me.”
Unlike the other Christian denominations, who are rushing headlong into secular hedonism, they are struggling to maintain some standards of decency.
Perhaps, they will—ironically—help our own alienated secular brethren return to their authentic Jewish roots.

See http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/10052007/profile.html for a lot more detail. R’ Michael Lerner was particularly entertaining – did you know that Evangelicals believe they are right about the true religion and we are wrong and that in the end of times we will recognize that fact ! I’m shocked, shocked (to quote the immortal words of Captain Renault)

I work in GOP politics professionally and more Orthodox involvement would be a huge help to the pro-Israel cause. There’s not lack of political $ or muscle, but there is a major need to let the Christians who so strongly support us know that we don’t all think they’re dangerous-extremist-who-by-the-way-aren’t-very-intelligent. Especially since so much of the Jewish community is constantly attacking them (that’s not missed by the way, it’s a source of distress for Christian friends).
In my experience, politically active (False) Christians LOVE meeting Torah Jews, the more bearded-rabbi-stereotype-looking the better (Pastor: “Ah… finally I meet a rabbi who looks like a rabbi!”). Just simple outreach from Orthodox rabbis to Christian church and political leaders in their area would be a huge step forward.
There’s been some positive movement in that direction, but the average Orthodox rabbi puts taking the time to meet with non-Jews, especially at churches, very low on the priority list. This post really gets it right, it’s time for Torah Jews to start taking more responsibility for the political health of Israel and the overall Jewish community.
Incidentally, it’s not a bad thing for the school choice movement and other community concerns either.

rejewvenator, why shouldn’t Rabbi Adlerstein prefer to be engaged with Christians who share most of his world view, rather than with Jews who do not? It’s a lot more effective to talk to people who share your world view, rather than those who share your history.

Rejewvenator (October 11, 2007 @ 9:32 am) said, “Throughout Jewish history there have been Jews of various brands, sects, levels and types of observance, and so forth. Is there anything so different about today that makes you believe that Orthodoxy alone will survive?” :
Haven’t you noticed that periodically the old deviationist sects either left Judaism altogether or dwindled away? Then new ones popped up and went through the same process. And so on. We always seem to have this problem, but the cast of characters changes.
However, we are confident that truth will ultimately triumph over lies. If that thinking is triumphalist, so what?
Pastor Hagee and others like him will have to decide in the end whether to join our victorious cause by becoming proper B’nai Noach or not. Meanwhile, they are among Israel’s strongest supporters, which counts for something even though their overall outlook isn’t ours.

I am concerned that by associating too closely with Pastor Hagee, we run the risk of endorsing his particular theology over other Christian theologies. His Christian Zionist position is the subject of much controversy within the Christian world and in fact appears to be a minority POV. Has there ever been a time in the past 1900 years when rabbis have intervened in the theological dispute of another religion? Besides, it is a machloket rishonim, never resolved, as to whether Christianity is a permitted religion even for non-Jews under the Noachide laws. Are we really sure that the halachah is according to HaMeiri?
Also, it may be quite some time before Orthodox becomes the dominant group within Judaism, at least in the US. While the Conservative movement has been imploding, Reform Judaism reports recent growth and it has far more dues paying members than does Orthodoxy. We should not underestimate the attractiveness of an antinomian monotheistic religion.

Pleas don’t take this the wrong way. Like all of you, I also believe in Biyas Hamoshiach. But I think that we should tone down the rhetoric of who is going to be where when Moshiach comes. This is true for both Jews and goyim. Is this all about joining the right club, or are we trying to advance in Avodas Hashem?
I for one don’t know what to make of people like Hagee. But if it appears reasonable to believe that he can help us, and that we can associate with them, I think it’s OK. This doesn’t have to be thought o in eschatalogical terms all the time. One thing however,
we can really get hurt believing that Christians like us because we are the right kind of frum. We do what we do because it is right, or seems right- not to make brownie points.
