The Devil uses the Jews to destroy souls. Does this mean that the Jews deserve our hatred? Should we despise their race? God forbid! We have to pray for their conversion, and we pray for them for the sake of their forefathers, because their calling is irrevocable. They remain beloved because of the Lord Jesus, the son of Abraham. But Israel rejected her Messiah, and it follows that that nation must always oppose the reign of Christ and strive for the reign of mammon. It is a theological construct, and it is inevitable. Until the conversion of that people from lawlessness, their opposition to Christian morality will remain a fixture of this corrupt age. Because the Jews were chosen, because their calling was so great, they were to be first in the Kingdom of Heaven, but because they rejected that which was offered to them, and delivered up the incarnate God, they became the chiefs of the Mystery of Iniquity. It had to be one or the other, because of the awesomeness of their vocation. But God desires that they be saved, and so, in love, we must call them to repentance, to renounce their Judaism and to follow the Messias who willed to be theirs first.
CORRECTION NOELLE, THE DEVIL USES (PEOPLE) TO DESTROY SOULS.
Another correction Noelle, Judiasm does not need to be renounced.,…. Your’s is a form of antisemitism at it worst, or ignorance at your best.

You should look at what is called “Christianity” (probably what you practice even). It is full of lawlessness. It is full of paganism. It is full of cultural norms instead of real holiness. It is just as bad as Judaism as far as commandments of men being exalted over the commandments of YHWH.
Do you want to see iniquity/torahlessness? Go to church. Celebrate their pagan holidays. Take part in their marrying divorced people to each other and their endorsing corrupt political candidates and the masonic lodge. Watch how they allow all kinds of pedophiles into the ministry and ordain homosexuals and have affairs with their secretaries. Watch how ministers gather thousands to swindle them out or their hard earned money to buy jets and mansions and elaborate vacations.
Get real. Judge righteous judgment and call the the pot black, that you are being slowly boiled in, before you call the kettle black.
“Christian morality” is so corrupt that all can see it. Let’s try for Biblical morality instead.
The Jews are not the problem. The mystery of iniquity has been abundant in what has been called “Christianity” for over 1900 years…and it is not just the Catholic church that is full of it. Look in the mirror.
Shalom
Noelle, you maintain that Israel must always strive for the reign of mammon (though, I’m not sure where you derive this from scripture), I wonder if you’re familiar with the historical information in regard to the how the Jewish people to some degree were restricted to marginal occupations (such as money lending, tax collecting).
