The Bishop is fundamentally correct here.
.... a “Jew” from OT era is no longer defined by pedigree to Abraham....see. Says who? Why none other than Jesus Christ Himself.....John 8:24-45 (KJV referenced here)
John Chapter 8
V 24 - Jesus says if you do not believe I AM HE, you die in your sins...
V 24 - 27 “Jews” admit they don’t know who Jesus is.
VV 25-32 Jesus explains who He is and many Jews at that point believe on him....Jesus commends this and says ‘the truth has set you free...’
Here comes the big dividing line.......the Jews who did not believe on Jesus...
VV 33-44....the unbelieving Jews claim pedigree to Abraham as a basis for their election...Jesus dismisses that as a valid qualification and says if they were Abraham’s children, they would do the deeds of Abraham, and believe on Him just as Abraham rejoiced to see Jesus’ day....at the end of this exchange, Jesus declares....
V 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
V 45And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
So, the unbelieving “Jews” of today? They are not of Christ and not Abraham’s seed as Jesus defines here but of the Devil. It is unequivocal. I didn’t say it, Jesus says it right here.
When Christ arrived, he created a great division in history. The Jews of the OT ....some believed, majority rejected and wanted something else....Christ told them they follow the Devil...and a generation later..their Temple and all of the sacrificial process was obliterated...the OT faded away....
Today’s “Jew” from a religious sense and their rabbinic, Talmud-based (non-sacrificial) model of “worship” is as pagan as worshiping a totem pole.
Do I want harm to the folks known as Jews occupying Israel?...absolutely not....But they need to assimilate, cooperate....and they have no right to set up an exclusive ETHNIC privileged state any more than the Italians or the Irish do.
Anyone even know who the Khazars were?
You sir, are an idiot.
And, incidentally, you neglected to also list muslims, who rejected the United Nations resolution creating the state of "palestine," which the terrorist muslims promptly rejected.
