Re: "Newsweek says Bible is Pro-Gay" - Ted Pike

I read the article in Newsweek . . . and it was good. For a minute here, I thought Howard was printing Newsweek's article. Silly me. Howard would never print something that is contrary to his narrow view of the world.

You did read the article, Howard? Why didn't you print what you thought of it . . . instead of Rev. Pike's thoughts.

NEWSWEEK SAYS BIBLE IS PRO-GAY
By Rev. Ted Pike
15 Dec 08

For 50 years, America's two largest news magazines, Time and Newsweek,
have tirelessly promoted political, social and religious liberalism.
In the past three years they have teamed with other liberal media
(including National Geographic) to especially encourage unscholarly
and sensational theories doubting the deity of Jesus Christ and
integrity of the New Testament record. Such attacks include promotions
of The Da Vinci Code and Gnostic gospels, including the Gospel of
Judas. (See, The Jews Behind Da Vinci Code and Judas: Historic Jewish
Hero)

Now, in its Dec.15 issue titled "The Religious Case for Gay Marriage,"
Newsweek endorses an audaciously pro-homosexual reevaluation of the
Biblical stand against sodomy.

In her article, "Our Mutual Joy," Newsweek religion editor Lisa
Miller, veteran critic of Christianity, says Bible believers for 5,000
years have gotten it wrong: the Bible has always encouraged acceptance
of homosexuality! "Opponents of gay marriage often cite scripture,"
says Miller. "But what the Bible teaches about love argues for the
other side. Scripture gives us no good reason why gays and lesbians
should not be (civilly and religiously) married -- and a number of
excellent reasons why they should."

How does Miller justify this astonishing denial of the time-honored
and obvious truth that Christian Scripture anathematizes sodomy? She
conveniently omits any reference to the Bible's most emphatic
testimony against this heinous perversion: God's destruction of Sodom
and Gomorrah! (Genesis 19:24) She also doesn't mention Old Testament
records that God was well pleased when Sodomites were exiled and their
houses destroyed. (I Kings 15:12; 22:46; II Kings 23:7) She does
mention Leviticus 18:22 which calls homosexuality an abomination, but
simply dismisses this as "throw away lines in a peculiar text given
over to codes for living in the ancient Jewish world." Miller's
article entirely consists of similar manipulations, omissions, and
specious claims.
A Jewish Dynasty

Although many evangelical defenders will rebut Miller's fantastic
distortions of Scripture and history, I can guarantee almost no one
will identify the habitual criminals behind the scenes who originate
such anti-Christianity. I'm talking about Jewish owners of Newsweek
and big media.

In 1933, Jewish financier and Federal Reserve Board member Eugene
Meyer purchased the bankrupt The Washington Post newspaper. Meyer
transformed it into Washington DC's largest and most influential
left-leaning daily. In 1946 he left chairmanship of the Post to head
the World Bank and appointed his son-in-law Phillip Graham, husband of
his daughter Katherine, as publisher. After Phillip's suicide in 1963,
Katherine Meyer Graham became publisher of The Washington Post and
eventually board chair, a position she retained until her death in
2001.

In 1961, The Washington Post purchased Newsweek magazine, which has
since been owned and controlled by descendants of Eugene Meyer.
Katherine Weymouth, granddaughter and namesake of Katherine Meyer
Graham, is now publisher and chief-executive officer of The Washington
Post media (which includes Newsweek and a host of other TV and print
holdings). She is considered heir apparent to her uncle Donald E.
Graham, chair of the Washington Post Company.

Over the past century, the dynasty of Eugene Meyer has been
conspicuously liberal and forged especially close ties with key
players in the liberal/globalist agenda including the World Bank, the
Rockefellers, Lyndon Johnson and Henry Kissinger. Under Katherine
Weymouth's leadership, Newsweek is more liberal than ever. Its latest
article claiming the Bible endorses homosexuality could not have been
produced without her encouragement and permission

How Should Christians Respond?

In this news magazine's latest assault on Biblical morality, a
familiar pattern can be seen. Unnamed Jewish supremacists use a
Gentile attack dog (Lisa Miller) to assault Judaism's ancient rival,
Christianity, and its Biblical values. In response, Christians and
conservatives scurry in circles ineffectually, like ants from an
anthill kicked by a combat boot. No one utters the sacred "J" word,
telling the truth that Jews attacked their fortress. Jewish activists
are carefully protected from scrutiny, religious identification or
criticism. At least 70 million evangelicals in America cravenly (and
futilely) protest to the same "liberal media" that assaulted them.

Today Jewish media supremacists enjoy absolute control or
near-saturation representation as editors, writers, etc in all major
TV and print media. (See, Jews Confirm Big Media Is Jewish) Jewish
leadership and over-representation is documented fact at AOL Time
Warner, Disney, Bertelsman AG, Viacom, the News Corporation, and
Vivendi. Partly owned by these giants, smaller Zionist opinion-shapers
such as Hollywood movie companies, the big three TV networks, and the
Washington Post Company work in close anti-Christian cooperation.
Jewish media moguls have a commanding position of advantage. They can
pick and choose when and where to attack Christian and American
values. Media elite always emerge relatively unscathed, no matter how
savage their attack. Why? The superstition that "God will curse those
who criticize Jews" pervades evangelicalism; the cowardice of
contemporary Christian leaders toward Jewish antagonists is legendary.

How Can Christians Fight Back?

What can be done at this late hour? Christians must speak out,
identifying liberal Jewish supremacism as their arch-enemy. If not,
they will have to learn the hard way.

During the last Presidential race, outstanding Christian candidate Ron
Paul shared evangelicals' moral and political values - except
disproportionate, unconditional support of Israel. Primarily for this
reason, evangelicals rejected him. God gave them distasteful John
McCain and consequent victory for Barack Obama. Their blind loyalty to
the very Zionist Jews who now attack them played a decisive role in
putting Obama in the White House.

Recently, a prominent clergyman issued a well-publicized "message of
comfort" to American evangelicals in wake of the Obama victory. Rather
than comfort, evangelicals need to feel guilt and mortification for
empowering Jewish supremacism, Christianity's worst earthly enemy. Far
from being blessed by unconditional support of Israel's injustices in
the Middle East, evangelicals are politically, financially, and
morally cursed for giving a free hand to Jewish wreckers of
civilization over the last century.

Reeling from incessant media battery, and now political defeat,
increasingly high numbers of Christians believe Christ will return
very soon. They confidently expect "rapture" from this world in the
next several years. Yet Jesus did not promise escape by rapture at the
convenient moment when persecution begins. The Bible says "the godly
in Christ shall suffer persecution." (II Timothy 3:12) Having scorned
Christ's warnings to beware the threat from "the synagogue of Satan,"
the Bible says the church will have to reap what it sowed.

If the church does not speak out against Jewish supremacism, boldly,
specifically - and soon - it will be on earth that it will have hell
to pay.
