EXTREMIST ISLAMIC IDEOLOGY TARGETED JEWS AT BONDI ATTACK

Antisemitism and terrorism are both moral and national security crises that demand clear conviction and courageous leadership. On this issue, I believe our leaders have lost their moral compass. When leaders lack moral clarity, conviction falters, courage diminishes, and wisdom is absent. The result is blurred priorities, inconsistent justice, and a failure to confront the threats that truly endanger our society. I would say there’s hypocrisy at play.

Grieving for Our Nation After the Bondi Terrorist Attack

It is extremely hypocritical to voice your concern about antisemitism while allowing weekly demonstrations featuring hate-filled chants and terrorist flags, often carried by masked activists.

It is hypocritical to say you oppose terrorism while capitulating to it so completely through the recognition of a Palestinian state after the October 7 genocide. This reflects neither strength of character nor national resilience.

Misguided Policies

It is misguided to suggest that further gun control alone will prevent acts of terrorism, particularly when those intent on violence do not respect the law. A stronger focus must be placed on building a nation grounded in shared values.

Australia is a multiracial nation, and that diversity has long been a strength. Social cohesion, however, depends on shared values rather than parallel cultures.

Immigration policy should therefore prioritise integration and a common commitment to the principles that hold our society together. Clearly, this has been absent from immigration policy.

Words such as diversity, multiculturalism, tolerance, and respect ring hollow when they result in passive acceptance of a murderous ideology. Equating antisemitism with Islamophobia, and distancing terrorist organisations from religion, is naïvely at best and cowardly at worst. Not all Muslims are terrorists, but the terrorist ideology is clearly rooted in religion.

Priority of the Gospel

In saying all of this, the failure in public policy must not lead to a compromise of our Christian disciplines.

We are called to love our neighbours and bless our enemies. We must continue to shine the light of Christ to all Australians, including Muslim communities, some of whom have come to Australia as refugees escaping violence. We must share the gospel of Jesus Christ and the all-sufficiency of his grace. But we must also pray that Australia’s laws and policies will be built from a position of moral clarity. They must address antisemitism by condemning and penalising real hatred and threats of violence.

The future of a free, just, and compassionate Australia depends on those willing to defend truth and act wisely in public life, with antisemitism recognised and addressed as the urgent threat it truly is.

Now that we are fast approaching the return of Jesus Christ we need to warn our family and friends and whoever God brings into our circle of influence of the coming judgement on the unrepentant prior to Jesus return to rescue Israel and usher in His Millennial Kingdom (http://www.millennialkingdom.net).

Biblical end times prophecy is cantered upon Israel. Prior to 1948 when Israel was re-established as a nation these prophecies made no sense but once it became a nation again in all respects, including the Hebrew language, all the many Biblical end times prophecies started to play out. They are proof the Bible is God’s word, it reveals the true history of God’s world. Use it for evangelism.

PROPHESIED END-TIMES SIGNS INCREASING

It is shocking and unfathomable that the brutal attack by Hamas on Israel, October 7, 2023 — an assault not only on a nation, but on its right to exist in that small patch on the globe, the only home the United Nations has allowed the Jewish people, has resulted in antisemitism worldwide. This is spiritual warfare which fits with what Jesus said would happen to Jews and Christians just prior to His return with the glorified Saints to restore righteousness.

AUSTRALIA: This article reports on a recent rally; As Melbourne reels from attacks on synagogues and Israeli-owned businesses, a rare coalition of faith communities gathered peacefully over the weekend to reclaim the moral ground in a nation struggling against rising terror and intimidation.

On Sunday, in Melbourne, fifteen organisations from three different communities — Hindus, Iranians and Israelis — gathered with one unified purpose: to stand against terrorism.

The rally came amid rising violence, public apathy, and a growing ideological threat not just to Israel, but to the very foundations of Australian democracy and religious freedom. Despite the hopeful turnout, many there questioned why only a few hundred people showed up, especially after the recent terror attacks in Melbourne. Where was the outrage? Where were the crowds? Only a handful of Christians came to stand in solidarity — three from the Family First Party and a few others.

As Gideon Rozner, Policy Director at the Institute of Public Affairs stated bluntly: “No Australian should have their place of worship firebombed.” But the painful truth remains — there have been no real consequences for these acts of violence and for the chants of death and terror that have plagued Melbourne’s streets.

Since the Never Again Is Now rally in May 2024, turnout has dwindled. Each Sunday morning, only 10 to 30 people — a few brave Jews, Christians and atheists — stand quietly in the CBD. They face down noisy, drum-beating, aggressive pro-Palestinian protestors shouting: “Kill the Jews,” “F… the Jews,” “Death to the IDF.”

Instead of arresting those who threaten violence, police have moved on the peaceful crowd and even threatened them with arrest simply for being in the city.

One Sunday, a Christian woman had her Lion of Judah flag ripped from her hand. Her husband gave chase to recover it — and was pepper-sprayed by police. On another morning, an elderly woman with a flag on an umbrella was grabbed by police, their arms tightly around her neck.

Melbourne, once one of the most successful multicultural cities in the world, is now almost unrecognisable. For 21 months, it has teetered on the edge of something dangerous.

Folks we are living in the end times. God established the nation of Israel for His purposes, and despite its disobedience, God will fulfill the many promises He made that Israel will one day be the leader of the nations with its Messiah, Jesus ruling reigning over the nations from a new Jerusalem for one thousand years.
