Against Shari’a.

When I look at the text for this day I have to ask myself what the Law is now. I know one Jewish family: they informed me that I live in a town with the Southernmost synagogue in the world (I’m not sure if Chile has built one in Terra del Fuego or on their colony in Antarctica). And there are some Observant Jews I respect, like Spengler. But the current law we are told to keep is not that of Moses, but the SJW and Shari’a.

The context of this first quote is a Spengler article, in which he talks of terrorists killing journalists at Charlie Hebdo and one of his colleagues, Pakistani and Muslim, being found, dead, in a ditch, with signs of torture. He is concerned that the speech of all is being silenced. And a commentator gave us an example of current legal exegesis.

The means by which France, or any other nation, could defeat the terrorists are obvious: to compel the majority of French Muslims to turn against the terrorists, the French authorities would have to make them fear the French state more than they fear the terrorists.”
This Spengler has lost his mind. He is SIMPLY a RACIST and ISLAMOPHOB in the GARB of being CIVIL. Western Powers have killed MILLIONS all around the world in the name of CAPITALISM and DEMOCRACY than all the civilization combined in the HISTORY of mankind……
There are 13 Muslim countries in chaos because of Western involvement or AGENDA….and Western countries are all CHRISTIAN….
Have any ONE Noticed FRANCE indicated recognizing PALESTINIAN STATE and sure enough COINCIDENTALLY this massacare happened….
All the news is coming from Western media and is controlled. We will never know who were the HANDLERS of those murderer….may be some one on the pay role of Tel Aviv

The self-righteousness of the self-deluded. Accusing Goldman of being what they are: seeking conspiracy where there are none (I have my own opinion on US foreign policy and it is that of Napoleon: never seek a conspiracy when incompetence is a sufficient explanation).

And that is the law we are being told to keep: that we are not racist, not a fearer of Islam. Those guns are not real. The dead men, hung or pushed off towers because they have a male lover, are a fiction. The Christians killed and the churches burnt mean nothing, and the hounding of the Jews from their quarters of cities they have inhabited since biblical times mean nothing.

Because we worship a false law. It is not the Galatians who have been bewitched, it is our secular society. And we should not join them.

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified. Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law or by hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh? Did you suffer so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain? Does he who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you do so by works of the law, or by hearing with faith—just as Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”?

Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham. And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.” So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, for “The righteous shall live by faith.” But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does them shall live by them.” Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”—so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith.

(Galatians 3:1-14 ESV)

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

I am a Pakeha (European: primarily English) New Zealander. We inherited many traditions and Laws from England, including the laws of tolerance of religion and freedom of speech, painfully won. We had Catholic and Jewish Prime Ministers, in what was a predominantly Protestant Country, before 1900. Like many places in the West, the plurality are now pagan, but the remnant is not small. And… our current PM is a secular man, descended from a family killed in the holocaust. I do not want to see genocidal destruction of Peoples this century: there was enough of this in the last one.

For Christ changed everything. I should not have to remind anyone that Paul was not only a Jew, he was raised a Pharisee, a Jew of zeal among a people who were zealous for the Law of God. So when he says that faith trumps the Law, and in Christ all men are the descendants of Abraham he is letting go of things that were a core part of his identity, for something greater.

We have enough to do, obeying Christ and doing what he wants us to do. We need to have some liberty on things that are not of the faith: freedom of speech means freedom for scholars to discover truth, for laity to correct error, and for people to confront false teaching.

The Galatians were foolish and fell into error. Let us not find ourselves following the laws of pagan scholars out of fear. We can easily mock the SJW and their micro-aggression and micro-regulation, but the monster our society are those who want to use the jurisprudence based on the drivelling of a paedophile and practitioner of genocide. We need to mock Muhammad. We need to confront those who would force Shari’a on us, using bacon when needed.
