It seems Jimmy Carter has again revealed his hatred of Israel and Jews.

I'll put this simply. Salvation aside, you cannot claim the title of Christian and be antisemitic. The Jews always have been and most certainly still are God's Chosen People, His adopted family on earth.

Just as surely as an unrepentant murderer cannot righteously claim to be Christian (a little Christ, or Christ-like), neither can one who hates God's Chosen, or His Promised Land given to His Chosen, claim to be Christian.

Taking it a step further, if you fail to see modern Israel as the obvious fulfillment of Ezekiel's prophecy, you have no business claiming Christianity, because you obviously don't know how to read.

This does not mean Israel is blameless or even saved from their sins (presently). There is no worship of Jews or Israel here. But to hate those whom God has chosen (and through whom His Son was born), to deny His eternal covenants with them, to replace Israel with a Jew-hating Gentile "church", is anathema to any Biblical faith.

Jimmy Carter is no Christian. He has no clue what the Bible says about God's People. As far as I'm concerned, he is hereby excommunicated from the true, Bible-based faith of Christianity.
