Premium Member The Jews

Years ago, my aunt developed mesothelioma.  She and her husband did not have money for medical care. It was a Jewish hospital that took her in, and helped her through her last days free of charge.
The Jews have built many hospitals, made contributions to many charities, and established many foundations. The list is endless.
 Jews have been instrumental in government and finance. They have served in our American armed forces from recruits to high level generals and admirals.
I have never seen a Jew burn an American flag.
I have never heard of a Jew cry out for his God while assaulting a woman. 
Jews take their God seriously, and are respectful In prayer.
Jews are good pet owners. Many Jews own cats and/or dogs. Jews recognize dogs as one of God's gifts to all of us.
Jews endure a lot of hate and bullying, yet they stay strong.

Premium Member Jesus - King of the Jews

In His eyes was the wisdom of the ages.
In His hands was kindness and love.
His manner was tender and quiet.
In His smile was a light from above.

He traveled the highways and byways;
Spoke to rich man and beggar alike.
He taught in the streets and the temples,
Brought comfort and healing and light.

He spoke of His reason for coming,
And a home for the faithful and true.
At first He was loved by many,
And then by only a few.

He was taken to court in the city,
And put through a mockery trial.
He was hung on the cross without pity,
And taunted and rudely reviled.

Why did they do this to Jesus,
A Man who would never abuse?
His countrymen laughed and they mocked Him.
"He said He was King of the Jews".


"CHRIST DIDN'T PLEASE HIMSELF. AS THE PSALMIST SAID, HE CAME FOR THE VERY PURPOSE OF SUFFERING UNDER THE INSULTS OF THOSE WHOWERE AGAINST THE LORD. THESE THINGS WHICH WERE WRITTEN IN THE SCRIPTURES SO LONG AGO ARE TO TEACH US PATIENCE, AND TO ENCOURAGE US SO THAT WE WILL LOOK FORWARD EXPECTANTLY TO THE TIME WHEN GOD WILL CONQUER SIN AND DEATH."
                                                                                     Romans 15:3-4

Times of Deception

that's the future age of the deceiver
peace on earth,hell in heaven
it's an ancient plan
jews betrayed their religion erased ALLAH'S words and rewrote the Torah and the talmud (win,win deciet)
christians betrayed their religion accepted the continuous hammering of the Bible from constantine the pagan to james the ***,
moslems betrayed their religion ALLAH saved his Qur'an so the tampered with the practice and accepted fake sayings on their prophets tongue and raised it above Qur'an
my dear fellow human don't denounce the sole creator for the betrayal of the creation
he offered free will and warnings 
these are no different religions they are all one
spirituality is the essence but not in an illiterate manner searching mortals for immortality is as ugly as can be
religion is humanity at it's best
no fancy synagogues,churches,mosques
the whole earth is worship ground
peace upon all ,all includes who still doesn't believe 
you can never offer religion at the tip of your sword

Premium Member Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews

"Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."
By: Miracle man
3-27-2020

Up Golgotha’s hill Jesus carried a cross,
to take upon himself all of mankind’s dross.
Thereby to be hung between two convicted thieves, 
each Easter we hear the story His death leaves.

But this isn't where Jesus' story would stop,
the soldiers affixed a sign to the cross’ top. 
Saying "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews,"
He willingly was paying all mankind's dues.

Among themselves, His garments, then we're parted,
and each Easter, Christians celebrate, brokenhearted.
Lots were cast by soldiers, for his seamless robe,
now this occasion is remembered around the globe.

Premium Member They Say We Jews are Afraid

     They say we Jews are afraid
        that no one 'now' will come to our aid

     Murder of Jews in America is multiplying
        more and more hate crimes, innocents dying

     Well, that’s the way it’s always been
        as any Jew with two eyes has seen  

     Six million of us killed by Hitler and his cronies
        without a hand lifted to stop it by Roosevelt and his liberal phonies

     To prevent the last 750,000, from Hungary, from being gassed
        they only needed to target one railway pass

     But FDR and his friends grew up hating those ‘damn Jews’ 
        so, all our urgent pleas they angrily refused…

     Today though, there is Israel, the Jewish state
        reestablished in '48 on the back of global hate

     A state that stands boldly against acts of terror
        where Jewish Israelis glance not in the rearview mirror

     My fellow Jewish Americans, the time is now to emigrate
        let's remake our lives in Israel ~ before here it’s too late 



     _____________________________________________________
     Anyone willing to do the slightest bit of research will find out
     just how big a Jew-hater FDR was from his early years on...And 
     his shocking wave-of-the-hand dismissal of so many urgent
     pleas to spare one or two bombs to target Germany's transport
     of 750,000+ Hungarians Jews to Auschwitz in 1944 STANDS OUT 
     as perhaps his cruelest act as President, right up there with the
     much more widely publicized incarceration of up to 1,800 Japanese-
     Americans during WW2.

Premium Member The Burning of the Jews

It was a woodcut in our high school history text, Unit 4 Beginnings of the
      Modern World, that so disturbed,
from the Nuremburg Chronicles depicting the burning of the Jews, flat
      perspective,
faces of the victims among flames, in no particular agony, not especially
      Jewish,
during the Black Death 1/3 of Europe died 1347-1351 alone. Although
you die together you die alone.
Earlier that week, I had attended our 6th grade's performance of Fiddler on    
      the Roof, thinking
Coltrane should have recorded Matchmaker as a bookend to My
      Favorite Things
but as the play darkened
with the town's absorption into the diaspora, democracy
yet unthought of and rule of law a fig leaf for authority
Jasper, who played Zero Mostel, delivered his line well to the effect
you're just doing your jobs while wrecking our lives.

Anyway, nothing like that is happening here, is it?
The gardener planting tomatoes, the gravedigger finding skulls,
there is so much life a little death won't matter.
Jasper
was a beautiful ham,
big as Zero.
A friend posed
this question: must all states be melting pots like the United States?
I said yes
not because they should but since
it's inevitable. Let labor flow like capital!
America was the last word of the play and brought a tear of pride to my
      eye.

Immigration, exasperating argument re the Other.
How many's more than enough? 9 billion, a rational,
real number that exceeds or
                                       we're convinced
is within the carrying capacity of the planet.
Climate change is the new Black Death.
I like the Amerindian body type and face mixed in with the European,
      African.
The irrepressible economy rolls out reams of logs, ores of elements, bags
      of ice, fields of rice.
Embargo. The moon stares, bare, full of interstellar space.
Better a cold shoulder than a visit from our military.
The crazy Nazis must have felt themselves extraordinarily compassionate
      toward the mother, earth, the goddess, history, or some such
      abstraction and, thus, acted on a fraction of all they did not know.
Selfless soldiers just doing their jobs guarding the border or,
on the other hand, collecting fagots for the burning of the Jews.

Salvation Is From the Jews


Salvation Is From the Jews

22“You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” John 4:22-24 NIV


Jesus said, “Salvation is from the Jews.”
Should we not be more thankful
To the nation of Israel—
A nation that seeks to be peaceful?
Jesus himself was Jewish
Not a Samaritan or Roman of His day.
From Christ’s Jewish roots
Came our Christianity of today!

Thanks to Constantine the Great
Our Jewish roots have been tainted;
Mixed with pagan customs;
By man’s times and laws polluted.
Anti-semitism led to Sunday worship,
Instead of God’s sanctified Sabbath day;
Saints were given halos—
Immortality at death portrayed.

The Jewish roots of Christianity
Cannot be denied.
Even the laws of our nations,
Upon Moses’ tablets have relied.
The Jewish people,
Have taught us a thing or two;
They gave us the Torah—
The books of Moses in Hebrew!

Since salvation is from the Jews,
Should we not show our gratitude?
To the nation of Israel—
Offer a Christian attitude.
It’s the only nation with a future,
When all other kingdoms tumble down.
The New Jerusalem’s our home in heaven;
Where those grafted into the olive tree will be found!

Land,Land of the Jews

A duet (Palestine & Israel) in the style and melody of Home On The Range
a humorous satire in song parody of over 4,000 years of jealousy


(Palestine)
Oh, give me a land where no Hebrews stand
where Palestine could live and shine
where seldom is seen a Rabbi or ‘stein
and Jerusalem could be all mine

(chorus)
Land, land without Jews
where Palestine could live and shine
where seldom is seen a Rabbi or ‘stein
and Jerusalem could be all mine


(Israel)
You don’t understand, God gave us this land
where Palestine would hate and whine
where seldom it seems, peace is a dream
and Jerusalem should be all mine

(chorus)
Land, land of the Jews
where Palestine still hates and whines
where seldom it seems, peace is the dream
and Jerusalem shall be all mine


a parody to the tune of 'Home, Home on the range"

Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews

This is the King of the Jews,
The inscription proclaimed to all
Who passed by the cross on Golgotha’s hill.
Pilate could not have known that day
That the words he had inscribed there
Were the TRUTH to mankind revealed.

Wars Are Made By Men

WARS ARE MADE BY MEN (Satis Shroff)

When you walk in the streets of Freiburg
Or any German town in the East or West,
You see lovely, innocent faces
Of well dressed men and women.
These people are not responsible
For the cruelty, genocide and hatred,
Carried out by their fathers and grandpas.
Wars are made by men.

But the new generation bear a big responsibility,
Not to make it happen again,
For wars are made by men.
We witness it in the refugee homes,
Burning since Hoyerswerda and Mölln.
In 2016 alone 1800 attacks on homes
Of people who sought refuge,
Perpetrated by white racists and skins,
Wars are made by men.

Why do people run away from their Heimat
Why do they cross the Mediterranean Sea,
In overloaded rubber boats.
Wars make refugees out of citizens.
Look at the faces of the scared women and children,
In the eyes of the youth you read
The hopelessness, terror, tragedy and sorrow.
Wars are made by men.

The war bombs are not Heaven sent,
But caused by men called rulers and politicians,
Who seek through war a solution
Of their greedy, evil intentions,
In the guise of nationalism,
Which when unveiled is racism
And the craving for power.
The same craving that made nations
Conquer and misrule other nations.
War is made by men.

Better technology means
More brutality and infernal arsenal.
Every November we think of the victims
Of past wars on Volkstrauertag,
A day of people mourning
The traumatic experiences of war and imprisonment.
We mourn today
And sell weapons tomorrow.
We take part in silent marches,
To remember the murdered Jews,
On Reichskristallnacht and thereafter.
A protest against the Progrom,
Against the Holocaust.

Alas, wars are still made by men
Against other men, women and children.
Wars are made by men.

The Stupid-Jews

There we are--
Lost-- all of us--
No longer able to speak that unwritten language--
Sentenced to camps and environments unknown--
We are the stupid-Jews.

Premium Member The Jews Harp

if aromatic, can your sound
adrift on wings like strings to sing
by tongue and some from lighted tops
of cloud aloud let fly, let fly
o solitary eagle soaring high
these aromatic overtones
of demon groans to bees abuzz
on petal roams and onto tombs
of night in flight to morning’s dew
harmonic rhythms meditate 
the late, the new, the cycle through
sweet realm of realms, mine avenue
and though her breath is my breath too
the key, like she, can bloom

Pentastich-No Pity For the Jews

They were once enslaved in idolatrous Egypt,
and Moses led them out of that wicked land,
when the Third Reich came to power in Europe,
Hitler deepened his hatred for them; no nation 
dared to save them, so their extermination began.


They were locked in the cramped rooms of concentration camps,
later burned in gas chambers, then thrown into mass graves;
their human lives were worthless to him, and many walked
into those darkened chambers filled with the stench of death,
holding their children so afraid and shivering in the bitter cold.


In the windowless rooms with bankers beds, scary eyes roved in darkness:
in there, life was a flickering candle kept alive by an incredible faith,
and God in His immense mercy, descended here to comfort them...
while the Evil One continued to spread death and fear among nations;
no documents were found, but piles of corpses witnessed those atrocities.

Born King of the Jews

A baby born in Bethlehem
Was born to be King of the Jews,
But the Jewish people knew him not;
To them it was unwelcomed news.
The Magi found out secretly
Where the babe could be found.
They followed a bright star in the East 
To where the babe in swaddling clothes was bound.

These three wise men worshipped the young child,
And gave gifts of gold, incense and myrrh.
They were warned in a dream not to tell Herod,
And this set Herod in a frenzied stir.
Joseph and Mary escaped to Egypt
And lived in that land that was foreign,
Until the death of this evil king
Made it safe for the family to return.

Although born to be King of the Jews,
Christ was rejected by his own.
A few shepherds acknowledged him,
But most left him well alone.
As a babe, Christ was protected,
By His Father who reigned on high,
But He grew up to become the sacrifice
That many still choose to deny.

Born King of the Jews of old,
His miracle birth was not acknowledged.
His people hadn’t read the scriptures;
This prophecy left disadvantaged.
It was only after His disappearance,
And King Herod’s killing spree,
That some of the Jews acknowledged,
What the true origins of this child might be.

The gift that was so precious
Was ignored by God’s planned receivers.
So carried away by their own importance,
Instead of studied, determined believers.
Are we any different today?
Do we know the man born King of the Jews?
Are we passionate about His lost people
And shout about His gospel news!

At Christmas we should show Christ homage,
And look to the nativity scene;
Not be like the Jews who ignored Him,
Except for those with a dream.
He was the greatest gift of all time,
From our Father with a heart of love.
Although born King of the Jews,
He was conceived by heaven above.
