A more direct attack on Christianity came from Oxford University Press in England in 1908, when it published a false and intentionally misleading Bible called the Skofield Reference Bible. Its mission was to inject into the Christian text reinterpretations that made the future state of Israel the way to God. This book was so important that Oxford University Press opened its first branch in the United States to publish it. They had never published an American book before. They had not published Wittier's books, his poetry. They had not published Longfell. They had not published any of our great American authors, but they published this. The Oxford University Press published the Skofield book. They promoted it into key American seminaries and Bible schools where the beliefs of future generations of pastors could be molded to cloud the peacemaking traditions of Christianity and benefit the state of Israel. Most pastors and teachers were unaware of any danger since there was no state of Israel at the time. Most of them did not even know that Chewys State was being planned. Few guests at the Skofield book would be used by secular powers to bend Christians into political and financial servitude to the Chewys State, present day Israel. American Christianity became increasingly Zionized after 1948, when the state of Israel appeared as a result of the United Nations' edict. Oxford University Press was strongly Zionist influenced and it provided a huge financial and promotional boost when it opened the publishing branch in New York City. This for the purpose of publishing the Christian Zionist Manual in 1908, called the Skofield Braffin's Bible. This book was to be a foundational document upon which Christian Zionism, by host of other names including Evangelism, would begin its methodical growth by deception. The founders of world Zionism, especially Hime Weitzmann, successor to Theodore Herzl, had much to do with drawing the United States into World War I. A mere handful of dominant American Zionists were able to influence President Wilson, possibly by Blackmail, to join the war in Europe over his advisor's objections. America lost over 100,000 men who were entirely innocent of any involvement in European politics, and out of all this. The world Zionist movement gained a piece of land, called Palestine. The land of the Philistine was England's payoff to world Zionism for causing America to enter World War I on the side of Great Britain, which was losing the war to Germany. By 1917 the world Zionist movement was in high gear toward occupying Arab Palestine, after the Balfour Declaration gave them a claim without title to any land occupied by the Palestinians. The Schofield reference Bible was copyrighted in 1909. It is an old and new testament with most of the notes in the original text added in the Old Testament. Later, many notes were added to the New Testament as the Schofield reference Bible was re-edited several times, with the most radical change being made in 1967. The book has been updated over and over again, each time by Oxford University Press, always having Mr. Schofield's name on the front of it. In fact, he's listed as the editor in the most recent edition, even though he's been dead for about 40 years. The cover shows the editor, Cyrus Schofield, with seven other men on the editorial board. One of these was Reverend James M. Gray, president of the Moody Bible Institute, one of the most influential organizations in evangelical circles of the day. There were also two other seminary leaders on the editorial board. Those landing their names were predominantly heads of seminaries and Christian colleges. What happened is the distribution took place through these seminaries. One young pastors were graduated from these schools and they went back out and took a church and started to teach from the pulpit they had one of these in their hands. This is what was given to them. I suppose that they were probably given to the seminaries. It was likely that the Oxford Press made it, was very generous in making sure that all these people had these. That exactly is the Schofield reference Bible. Let us look critically at just one page of the book that has become the guide for secularist Jews in Israel and evangelical Christians in America to explain why they think present they Israel has the right to all of the land in the Middle East, beginning with Palestine. Genesis 12.3 is part of the Torah and is quoted in the Quran. These three verses are standard in the King James translation and very similar in other novels. Let me paraphrase it as you read the Old English. The Lord told Abram to leave his home and family and go into a land that God would show him. God promised to then make of Abram a great nation, bless him, and make his name great, protect him by blessing his friends and cursing his enemies, and from Abram's seat all the nations of the earth would be blessed. Now for the part that is important to traditional Christians, I quote, in these shall all the families of the earth be blessed. Christianity has for 2,000 years taken this to be the first notice from God of the coming Savior of mankind. Genesis 12.3 is the earliest covenant that God made to Abram, and it is the one used by Israelis and Christians, Zionists, to justify the idea that the entire Middle East should be Israeli property. I quote, yet the out of thy country and from thy kindred and from thy father's halls into a land that I will show thee. This of all races interpret the phrase into a land that I will show thee as a perpetual land grant to present day Israel. Now we will examine the most effective corruptor of Scripture in history, one Cyrus Ice Skofield on 19th-century American. Note on page 19 that the footnotes dwarf the text. Note also that the italicized insertions in between the verses that are not part of the Bible. In the 1967 version of the Skofield reference Bible, there are more footnotes spent in the original 1909 version, and since the death of Skofield in 1921, the footnotes have grown to dwarf the text in these very important pages. Let's look again at the vital footnote 2 found in the Skofield reference Bible in 1967 on page 19. The footnote reads, God made an unconditional promise of blessing through Abram's seed to the nation of Israel to inherit a specific territory forever. But the passage doesn't say anything like this. God orders Abram to go to a land that God will show him, using the first person familiar thee, meaning Abram and no one but Abram. The passage does not say that God is giving any piece of land to anybody forever. It doesn't say anything about Israel. Now how complicated it is is it? Leave your land, go or I tell you to go and I will protect you. How complicated is that? How many footnotes does it take to understand what God was saying to Abraham? I mean, anybody who reads that should be able to figure that out. That's what the message is. But Mr. Skofield wrote all of this to explain it. In fact, if we accept the historical history, we know that Abram had no children when this happened and not for quite a while. So there was no person or nation named Israel when this promise was made. There was no state or nation named Israel. The man Israel did not even exist in Abram's imagination when God spoke to him. How then could Skofield or the Oxford University press say that God was promising a land to the present day state of Israel forever? Where did the state of Israel get in this? When Abraham was spoken to by God, Israel, the man known as Israel, hadn't been born yet. He was two generations in the future and he was not a state. He was a person that eventually had a tribe. And then after him, three thousand years later, along comes a bunch of Europeans who name their state after him. But this says that God gave that land to the nation of Israel forever. Imagine 70 million people who were taught this every day. The Oxford University press did not stop there. No three on page 19 reads, there is a promise of blessing upon the individuals and nations who bless Abram's descendants and accursed lay upon those who persecute the Jew. The word Jew is used in the footnotes and describing an occurrence, two to three thousand years before the word Jew existed. In fact Jew is taken from the name Judah, who was it is told, one of the twelve grandsons of Abraham, Abraham of Genesis 12. Neither Judah nor Jew existed, and this footnote is a false concoction. No three continues. God's promised Abraham in his seeds certainly did not terminate its army with the giving of the law. The New Testament and Old Testament are full of post-Scienite promises concerning Israel, and the land which is to be Israel's everlasting possession. Listener should be asking why is Oxford University press putting words in the mouths of the readers of this Bible? To make them think their God promises blessings and curses on people today, based on how they think about or act toward present-day Jews and present-day Israel. What about all the other people in the world? Let's read further in the footnotes to Genesis 12.3. Promise to the Gentiles. I will bless them that bless thee. Those who honor Abraham will be blessed and curse them that curse thee. This was a warning literally fulfilled in the history of Israel's persecution. It has invariably fared ill with the people who have persecuted the Jew, and well with those who have protected him. And here is the punchline. For a nation to commit the sin of anti-Semitism brings inevitable judgment. The future will still more remarkably prove this principle. Isn't that convenient? So now you have anti-Semitism is created in Abraham's time. The footnote to Abraham's words create and the word anti-Semitism. Christian Zionism believes that our nation will be judged if we are not sufficiently kind as a nation to the state of Israel. They have made sin a sort of a national corporate event rather than an individual thing. Of course there is no such thing as national sin. Nations don't sin. We do. Individuals do. Men do. But this has created a national sin so that Christians, Zionists like John Hagee, believe that God will reign fire down on our country. We'll somehow punish our entire nation for being insufficiently kind.
