[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation="none"]A @Christadelphians Video: Provable Bible Truth One of our in-house interviewers, Bro Gary, speaks with Jason Hewnsley, Jason Hensley, PhD (Holocaust and genocide studies), DMin (biblical studies), who teaches the history of religion within the California State University system. He has been a fellow of the Michael LaPrade Holocaust Education Institute of the Anti-Defamation League, a higher-education ambassador for the Council on Foreign Relations and the award-winning author of 14 books and a lecturer in Biblical Greek and Hebrew. You can watch Jason's material on this and other subjects here.. https://christadelphianvideo.org/speaker/hensley-jason/ - Why watch it? Why does antisemitism exist, and what has doctrine to do with it? We, as Christadelphians, explore this with Dr Jason Hensley—Holocaust and genocide scholar—as he explains why false doctrine, especially the deity of Jesus and replacement theology, helped create a foundation for centuries of persecution. We also trace the 2005 Gaza withdrawal, media bias, the meaning of “Judeans” in 1 Thessalonians, and why right doctrine reshapes our view of Israel and the Jewish people. What question does this video answer? The answer is sobering but hopeful: beliefs shape behaviour. False doctrine did not cause the Holocaust by itself, but without it the Holocaust would not have been possible, by painting Jews as God-killers and demons. Yet Scripture calls us back to the Word, to see Israel as God’s people, and to remain separate from worldly polarisation. Watch to be informed, challenged, and inspired to love the Bible more.
