The Future Christians of America

    In an amazing twisted irony, Eric Yoffie, leader of the "Reform" movement was apparently born with the name in Hebrew that means beautiful or good. Unfortunately, he is ironically one of the most guilty parties in the Israeli-Arab conflict and a misleader of the Jewish people. He is the antithesis of a good Jew-part of a heretical "branch of Judaism," like the early Christians, that seeks to take Jews away from the Torah and it's precepts. He is the leader of the F.C.A.-The Future Christians of America.


    Adding to his crimes, Yoffie insists of casting his opinions upon the current settlement crisis. Here is a heretic of the highest order using his "Jewishness" and his vulgarly ironic name to attack Israel's position and undermine its Torah claim to the Land of Israel. Is this a friend of Israel? The Gemara relates (Sotah 49b)*:

In the footsteps of the Messiah insolence will increase and honor dwindle..
בעקבות משיחא חוצפא יסגא ויוקר יאמיר
תלמוד בבלי מסכת סוטה דף מט/ב

Unfortunately, we are seeing this insolence on the highest levels-amongst the leadership of some of the biggest Jewish groups. The end result? More assimilation, less Jews and more Christians. Just what the early Christians (and present) wanted, eh?


*The page number "49" in Hebrew, when read in reverse is "Tam or טם" which is "closed" the root of the word טומאה, impure (the inability to produce life).

Epilogue
    I was in the center of town with a friend from New York who was returning to the States in a few days. He asked me, as we sat amongst a crowd of young frum American kids, "what will be of American Jews." The discussion turned to the topic of assimilation and "Jews for Jesus" (J4J). I him him that the Christians who get involved with them inevitably learn some kind of Jewish rituals. Many of them, some whom I know, converted to Judaism (Orthodox). The Jews who get duped into that probably couldn't be saved anyway-they didn't have a rigorous education as youngsters.


    However, the "reform" movement actually re-forms Jews into Christians. They are the real J4J. The Jewish man (or woman) who doesn't have the Torah knowledge goes into the larger gentile world that his parents told him to *"conquer." Instead, it conquers him. He meets a non-Jewish girl who accepts him for who he is and doesn't give him the Friends treatment of endless narcissistic fronting. So he marries the girl because beforehand the "reform rabbi" tells them, "if you raise your kids Jewish then they'll be Jewish." So the kids, who are not Jews, "consider themselves Jewish," but don't follow Jewish rituals and don't study Torah. The Jew has been converted to Christianity (or Americana), and the Jewish community has facilitated it and made it "kosher!" When someone like Meir Kahane or another knowledgeable and caring Jew coming along and says, "wait! stop!," then they are labeled an inciter, a hooligan, a terrorist, a threat to the liberal Jewish agenda.


    When the grandparent, who may have even studied in a heder (rigorous Orthodox Jewish learning school in Europe) sees his/her great-grandchildren wearing a Christian cross-then and only then does she internalize her mistake-but it's too late.


*Gensis (47:27)

And Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions in it, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly.


ספר בראשית פרק מז
(כז) וַיֵּשֶׁב יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם בְּאֶרֶץ גּשֶׁן וַיֵּאָחֲזוּ בָהּ וַיִּפְרוּ וַיִּרְבּוּ מְאֹד

-(47:27) the Jews took land holdings in Egypt
-the verb ויאחזו בה va-yeachzu-bah also could mean that they (Egypt) took a grip
on the Nation of Israel, just as Israel was acquiring their land, Egypt was
acquiring them!
