TradCatKnight: Jerusalem Belongs to Christ the King and His Catholic Church

Entry of Christ to Jerusalem by Pietro Di Giovanni DAmbrogio, 1435-1440

Jerusalem belongs to Christ the King and His true Church, the Catholic Church.

Jerusalem does not belong to the Zionists of the State of Israel.

Jerusalem does not belong to observant Orthodox Jews who are opposed to Talmudism

Jerusalem does not belong to the Palestinians, although the Catholics among their number who have suffered mightily at the hands of the bloodthirsty Zionist racialists after being expelled from their homes and robbed of their land in 1948 do indeed have a right to call Jerusalem their home as it is their baptismal birthright as members of the Catholic Church.

Jerusalem does not belong to the blasphemous, lecherous pervert named Mohammed or to the adherents of the false religion he founded at the beginning of the Seventh Century A.D.

Jerusalem belongs to Christ the King and His Catholic Church.

Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ made this very point at the end of the Gospel passage that was read at Holy Mass yesterday, December 26, 2016, the Feast of Saint Stephen the Protomartyr, who was stoned to death by the Jews who had plugged their ears because they could bear to hear how he proved to them that Our Lord was indeed their very Messias:

At that time, Jesus said to the Scribes and Pharisees, Therefore, behold, I send you prophets, and wise men, and scribes; and some you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from town to town; that upon you may come all the just blood that has been shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the just unto the blood of Zacharias the son of Barachias, whom you killed between the temple and the altar. Amen I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation. Jerusalem, Jerusalem! you who kill the prophets, and stone those who are sent to you! How often would I have gathered your children together, as a hen gathers her young under her wings, but you would not! Behold, your house is left to you desolate. For I say to you, you shall not see Me henceforth until you shall say, Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord! (Matthew 23:34-39.)

There will never be peace in the Middle East until everyone in that region converts to the Catholic Faith and say in unison, “Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord!”

(A person who recommended that I appear on Crossfire in 1987 to discuss an outbreak of Palestinian-Israeli violence then was incredulous–perhaps “mortified” is a better word—when I said that I would say just that, that everyone involved had to convert to the Catholic Church, in a live appearance on television. Guess what? I did not appear on Crossfire.)

Every single bit of the Holy Land, including Jerusalem, was sanctified by the Incarnation, Nativity, Hidden Life, Public Life and Passion, Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Our Divine Redeemer, Christ the King.

Let me reiterate this fact: Jerusalem belongs to Christ the King and His Holy Church, not to the Zionist State of Israel or any other entity. Period.

Thus it is that all of the posturing about the “international status” of Jerusalem at the New World Order bastion called the United Nations, in Washington, District of Columbia, or Tel Aviv is so much agitation from the devil, who inspired his agents of naturalism to arrange the United Nation’s Security Council to pass a resolution condemning the government of Israel’s building of Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank just two days before Christmas. The condemnation, which is certainly just in the natural order of things as far as it goes, was timed to serve as a distraction just before the celebration of the Nativity of the Divine Redeemer. And a distraction it proved to be as adherents of both organized crime families of naturalism showed a spirit of “bipartisanship” on the one issue that transcends the differences they have on the substance of various issues: unwavering support for the murderous policies of the Zionist State of Israel.

There are few instances when the likes of United States Senator Charles H. Schumer (D-New York), who will be the Senate Minority Leader in the 115th Congress when it convenes on January 6, 2017, and his opposite number, Senate Majority Leader Addison Mitchell McConnell, agree on anything. Support for the government of Israel—and for its right to exist as a nation in the first place—is one of those rare instances. Both them condemned the Security Council resolution, and both of them condemned soon-to-be former President Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro’s decision to have the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power, a pro-abortion, pro-perversity Catholic who remains in perfectly good standing in the structures of the counterfeit of conciliarism, to abstain when the vote was taken, thereby making it possible for the resolution to pass by a vote of 14-0. (The five permanent members of the Security Council—Red China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States—have a veto power over all votes taken by the United Nations Security Council. Ambassador Power’s abstention meant that the resolution condemning Israel’s continued building of settlements on the West Bank could pass without an American objection.)

Consider a sampling of the reaction from Democrats and Republicans as they rose up in unison to condemn one of the few instances that the administration of Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro actually got something right, disregarding for the moment, of course, the diabolical nature of the resolution’s timing:

Congressional Democrats issued scathing statements aimed at the Obama administration over the US’s abstention from a Friday UN Security Council vote demanding Israel stop building settlements in occupied Palestinian territory.

Leading Democrats from both houses called out the UN as an inappropriate venue for rejuvenating the peace process between Israelis and Palestinians. They objected to the Obama administration’s departure from what they view as decades of established US policy of vetoing UN resolutions regarding Israeli settlements.

Incoming Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said it was “extremely frustrating, disappointing and confounding” that the Obama administration failed to veto the UN’s vote.

Schumer called out the UN as a “fervently” anti-Israel body, since the days of “Zionism is racism.”

“Whatever one’s views are on settlements, the UN is the wrong forum to settle these issues,” Schumer said.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut, called the US’s abstention from the vote “unconscionable.”

“A two-state solution must be negotiated directly between the Israelis and Palestinians, and this resolution flies in the face of this necessity,” Blumenthal said.

He also said support for Israel must remain “bipartisan,” and that he’ll work with colleagues on “both sides of the aisle” to advance “productive measures” that strengthen the US’s relationship with Israel.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, said that he would work to form a bipartisan coalition to “suspend or significantly reduce United States assistance to the United Nations.”

Sen. Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat, said that he was “deeply disappointed” that the Obama administration allowed such a “one-sided” resolution to pass.

“Actions like this will only take us further from the peace we all want to see,” Wyden said.

And Sen. Mark Warner, a Democrat from Virginia said “one-sided resolutions” at the UN are counterproductive to the peace process and “achieving a two-state solution.”

“I am dismayed that the administration departed from decades of U.S. policy by not vetoing the UN resolution regarding Israeli settlements,” Warner said.

Rep. Eliot L. Engel, a Democrat from New York and the ranking member on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said he was “very disappointed” by the US’s “acquiescence to a one-sided, biased resolution at the United Nations Security Council.”

“I have always believed that Israel can’t get a fair shake at the UN, and that is why Israel has relied on the United States to protect it from the anti-Israel tendencies of some UN Security Council members,” Engel said.

Engel further said that the text of the resolution places the “blame” for the stalled peace process between the Israelis and the Palestinians “entirely on Israel.” (http:/Democrats Blast Obama for UN Vote Against Israel.)

“Conservative” Republicans were even more outraged than the Democrats quoted in the story just above:

Conservatives Friday ripped the U.N. Security Council for condemning Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem — and the Obama administration’s abstention from the unanimous vote — with Sen. Lindsey Graham threatening to cut funding to the United Nations.

“This provocative action by the United Nations is an outrage and must be dealt with sternly and forcefully,” said the South Carolina Republican, who chairs a subcommittee that oversees funding to the organization. “The United States is currently responsible for approximately 22 percent of the United Nations total budget.

“The Obama-Kerry foreign policy has gone from naïve and foolish to flat-out reckless,” he added. “With friends like these, Israel doesn’t need any enemies.”

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said he supported Graham’s call to strip the U.N. of federal funding “and reconsider aid to countries if they fail to join our opposition.”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said that the abstention was “a failure of leadership and judgment” by President Barack Obama.

“It is highly regrettable that one of President Obama’s last actions in office was again to abandon our ally Israel,” the Kentucky Republican said.

House Speaker Paul Ryan called the vote “absolutely shameful.”

“Today’s vote is a blow to peace that sets a dangerous precedent for further diplomatic efforts to isolate and demonize Israel,” the Wisconsin congressman said. “Our unified Republican government will work to reverse the damage done by this administration, and rebuild our alliance with Israel.”

Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton declared that Obama was “personally responsible for this anti-Israel resolution.

“His diplomats secretly coordinated the vote, yet he doesn’t even have the courage of his own convictions to vote for it,” the first-term GOP member said. “This cowardly, disgraceful action cements President Obama’s richly deserved legacy as the most anti-Israel president in American history.”

In a 14-0 vote, the Security Council declared the Israeli settlements to be a “flagrant violation of international law” and to have “no legal validity.”

The resolution demanded a halt to “all Israeli settlement activities,” calling it “essential for salvaging the two-state solution.”

The vote came a day after Egypt suddenly postponed a scheduled showdown and culminated days of frantic diplomacy in capitals around the world.

With its abstention, President Obama dismissed Donald Trump’s demand Thursday that the U.S. veto the resolution and brought a climax to years of icy relations with Israel’s leadership.

Trump vowed on Twitter Friday that “things will be different after Jan. 20th.”

In Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the Jewish state “rejects this shameful anti-Israel resolution at the U.N. and will not abide by its terms.”

The abstention proved to be one of the biggest American rebukes of Israel in recent memory — and it could hinder the Jewish state’s negotiating position in future peace talks.

“Today’s passage of [a] resolution on Israeli settlements marks another shameful chapter in the [U.N.'s] bizarre anti-Israel history,” Arizona Sen. John McCain told Fox News via Twitter.

Cotton noted that President Obama vetoed a similar — “but less anti-Israel resolution” — in 2011, “when he still needed pro-Israel voters for his re-election.”

Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner said that Obama’s abstention “marks his final betrayal of Israel.

“His days of emboldening our enemies and weakening our friends are thankfully coming to an end.”

Jay Sekulow, chief counsel for the American Center for Law and Justice, called the abstention “an act of utter cowardice.

“This dramatic shift in U.S. policy leaves our strongest ally in the region vulnerable,” he said.

“To make matters worse, this cowardly act — under the cover of the Christmas and Hanukkah holidays — comes when the fallout will be left to the incoming administration.” (Conservatives React to UN Vote Condemning Israel.)

Theodore Herzl, the founder of international Zionism, may have been rebuffed by Pope Saint Pius X on January 25, 1904, when he sought to convince one of the greatest popes in the history of Holy Mother Church to approve of his plan to resettle Jews in Palestine, but he had great success in convincing Protestants to do his bidding for him. Indeed, Protestantism, especially of the evangelical or fundamentalist variety, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zionism, something that Father Louis J. Campbell, the Pastor of Saint Jude Shrine, documented in one of his excellent sermons on July 27, 2014, the Seventh Sunday after Pentecost and the Commemoration of Saint Pantaleon:

Since the time of the Apostles, the Holy Catholic Church has preached the Gospel by the authority granted it by Jesus Christ. The Church was preaching the Gospel years before the Four Gospels were written down, and has continued to this day to fulfill Our Lord’s command to “preach the gospel to every creature” (Mk.16:15).

The Church collected the Scriptures that make up the Bible. But the heretic, Martin Luther (1483-1546), weeded out some of the books of the Bible he didn’t like, and the Protestant version of the Bible was born. The Bible itself was then touted as the sole authority subject to the “private interpretation” of the believer, thus denying the Church’s authority to preach the Gospel and interpret the Scriptures. However, it seems “the believers” are willing to believe much that is not to be found in the Bible.

No doubt many of us are puzzled by the strange phenomenon of Christian Zionism. Many Evangelical Christians, like the Baptists, the Pentecostals and the Charismatics, are enthusiastic supporters of Jewish Zionism, although not all Jews are Zionists, and many of them dispute the Zionist claims.

The Jewish Zionist Movement was founded by Theodor Herzl in 1897. Its chief aim was the creation of a Jewish homeland in the territory defined as the “Land of Israel” in the Bible. The Temple would eventually be rebuilt, and the ancient religious rites resumed. Since they believe they have a right to the lands promised to Abraham by God, the Zionists have little sympathy for the Palestinians, who were squeezed into the West Bank and the Gaza strip after the creation of the Jewish State of Israel in 1948. Misusing Old Testament Scriptures, the Jewish Zionists believe they are destined to rule the world.

So what could have turned famous Protestant preachers like Billy Graham, Hal Lindsay, John Hagee and Pat Robertson, into Christian Zionists, enthusiastic supporters of the aims of Jewish Zionism? Could it have been – the Scofield Bible?

The Scofield Reference Bible is widely used in Protestant seminaries, especially among Evangelicals, such as Baptists, Pentecostals and Charismatics. Recently someone sent me an article by a Mr. C.E. Carlson about the Scofield Bible, which seems to get to the root of the problem. Much of what follows is from Mr. Carlson (http://www.serendipity.li/zionism/carlson01.htm).

One of the schemes of the Jewish Zionists was to alter the Christian view of Zionism by creating and promoting a pro-Zionist subculture within Christianity. One Cyrus I. Scofield (1843-1921) was funded by Zionist agents to re-write the King James Version of the Bible by inserting Zionist-friendly notes in the margins, between verses and chapters, and on the bottoms of the pages. It was first published in 1909 by Oxford University Press, which still holds the copyright.

 Scofield produced a revolutionary book that radically changed the context of the King James Version. Oxford’s promoters made the Scofield Bible, with its Christian Zionist footnotes, a standard for interpreting scripture in Christian churches, seminaries, and Bible study groups. And they all followed like sheep – even Hagee, Lindsay, Robertson, Van Impe, and the revered Billy Graham. So much for private interpretation!

After Scofield’s death, the Oxford University Press turned the Scofield Bible into a manual for the Christian worship of the State of Israel. Scofields’s un-Christian anti-Arab theology has permitted the theft of Palestine and 54 years of death and destruction against the Palestinians, with hardly a complaint from the Judeo-Christian mass media evangelists or most other American church leaders, including the so-called U. S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

In his Epistle to the Galatians, St. Paul contradicts the claims of the Scofield Bible:

“The promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. He does not say, ‘And to his offsprings,’ as of many; but as of one, ‘And to his offspring,’ who is Christ… For you are all the children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For all who have been baptized into Christ, have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek; there is neither slave nor freeman; there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are the offspring of Abraham, heirs according to promise” (Gal.3:15b,16;26-29).

This makes it clear that to be a blood relative descended from Abraham is of no advantage to those who do not have faith in Jesus Christ. And Scofield and the Oxford University Press are liars when they try to prove that those who are known today as “Jews” are the heirs to the promises of Abraham. We read this whopper on page 1136 of the 1967 edition: “All Jews are natural descendants of Abraham…” 

This is absolutely false and absurd. The great majority of the so-called Jews who control Israel today are not descendants of Abraham at all. They are the Ashkenazi Jews, descendants of the Khazars of Eastern Europe. They are imposters, with no right to the lands of the Bible! Although known as “Jews” they are such neither by blood nor by religion, because the Jewish religion their ancestors adopted in the eighth century is not the true religion of the ancient Jews of the time of Christ, but the false Talmudic Judaism which blasphemes Jesus Christ and deifies the Jewish race.

And on page 19 we find this blatant lie: “God made an unconditional promise of blessings through Abram’s seed… to the Nation of Israel to inherit a specific territory forever.

What a deception! The televangelists and their huge following have accepted this abominable lie, and have led the whole country into vassalage to the Godless modern State of Israel. Jesus Christ is Abraham’s heir, not the State of Israel. The promises God made to Abraham are fulfilled in Jesus Christ. The Jewish Zionists have no true understanding of the Scriptures. And who would have thought that the “Bible believing Christians” would have stumbled after them into the darkness?

“Did you never read in the Scriptures,” said Our Lord to the Pharisees: “‘The stone which the builders rejected, has become the corner stone; by the Lord this has been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes’? Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and will be given to a people yielding its fruits” (Mt.21:42,43).

St. Paul understood it well:

“You are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Christ Jesus himself as the chief corner stone. In him the whole structure is closely fitted together and grows into a temple holy in the Lord, in him you too are being built together into a dwelling place for God in the Spirit” (Eph.2:20-22).  (Father Louis J. Campbell, Seventh Sunday after Pentecost.)

Father Campbell’s sermon should help disabuse some of you in the readership from using any Protestant “minister” as an “authority” on anything other than how to offend the true God of Divine Revelation, the Most Blessed Trinity. The American evangelical movement is a wholly-owned enterprise of Zionism. Then again, so is the counterfeit church of conciliarism.

Obviously, it is not only Protestants who have fallen prey to the lies of the Scofield Reference Bible. Most Catholics, influenced by the religious indifferentism that has characterized social life in the United States of American since its founding and by the counterfeit church of conciliarism’s celebration of false ecumenism, accept “support for Israel” and its policies as a “duty” in order render assistance to “America’s only ally” in the Middle East.
