Through-out the ages, evil men (and women) have tried to destroy G-d's people. This hatred is sparked not only by jealousy and greed, but by Satan himself. Satan hates anything of G-d, and this hatred has spewed forth ever since a Pharaoh tried to kill all the Hebrew males. This hatred is seen in the evil Haman's plot to rid Babylon of the Jew's, through Hitler's Holocaust, to today in the Middle East as Moslems murder Jews in the name of Allah. Christians and Messianic Believers have also tasted the hatred of Satan through the centuries.
To our shame, many since the time of Christ, calling themselves Christians, have murdered Jews (please see an Open Apology to our Jewish Brothers & Sisters). Jews in Europe feared the Christian Easter celebration, also supposed "men of G-d" preached that the "Christ Killers" must be punished (please see Who Killed Yeshua (Jesus)? ). The crusades saw "Christians" marching off to free the Holy Land, only to murder Jews along the way, and even attack other Christian groups.
Even in a more "enlightened" time, our own Government refused Hitler's offer to send the Jews to the United States. How many Jews would have survived the Holocaust if only we had allowed them to immigrate? Britain refused to allow refugees to Palestine, forcing their return to Nazi hands.
Anyone calling him or herself a Christian has NO right or excuse to hate, or mistreat anyone, especially not a Jew. Yeshua (Jesus) himself was born on earth as a Jew!
If you name the name of Jesus as your Savior, search your heart, and if there is any hatred for a Jewish person, repent (turn from it), and ask G-d's forgiveness. If you see anyone else harming a Jew, confront them in Love! If you have hurt or wronged a Jew (or anyone else), ask them to forgive you, and make it right.
It is not an option, it is command from Yeshua (Jesus), and from G-d the Father. In the Lord's Prayer, it says "Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us". What a sobering thought, if you don't forgive, G-d will not forgive you.
