PASTOR'S HOMILY CALLED ANTI-SEMITIC
as reported by the San Mateo Daily Journal.
What is the historical reality? Did the Jews put Jesus to death, or did the Roman soldiers put Jesus to death? (Or was it a combination of the two?) That seems to be the heart of the article. Are we supposed to revise history to avoid being anti-Semitic? The God we worship was a Jew when He walked the earth, and His human form in heaven is Jewish, afterall. Those who charge anti-Semitism should keep that in mind. Our Old Testament is the book of the Jews. It is not anti-Semitic to tell the truth, even when the truth offends. The Holocaust was not a get-out-of-sin-free card. Just as Christians do, sometimes members of the Jewish community do terrible things.
