Tucker Carlson got THIS wrong TOO

Today, I am sharing with you a video—a short one—it’s only four minutes long.
In the first few seconds, I share a clip from a recent Tucker Carlson video. And believe me, it only takes a few seconds of him talking before he reveals his not-so-thinly veiled hostility toward Israel and the Jewish people. Behind the stare and the smirk, there is some truth to what he said, but it was without proper context, so that he could demonize Jewish people.
Tucker Carlson recently exaggerated the fact that some religious schools in Israel use an inverted-T symbol instead of a plus sign because of its resemblance to the cross. But he left out the history of Jews and the Cross.
For centuries, Jews suffered persecution, forced conversions, expulsions, massacres, and antisemitic propaganda carried out in the name of Christianity. Some Jews have a painful historical association with the cross—Christians should respond with understanding and repentance, not outrage over a math symbol.
One of Satan’s favorite tactics—and most effective ones—is to sprinkle a little bit of truth in with the lie. Wasn’t that his original strategy in the Garden of Eden? He slyly hissed to Eve, “Has not God said…?” and then he finished it off with a distortion and fabrication of what God had spoken to Adam.
Tucker calls himself a Christian. But please, friend, don’t “buy” what he is “selling!” And warn others that what he is speaking is far from the truth of the gospel of Jesus, the Jewish man who is the Messiah for the whole world, and who loves His people and is coming back again one day to be greeted by His Jewish brothers and sisters—in Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:4 and Matthew 23:39).
Antisemitism in all its hideous forms is rearing its ugly head again in our day—and unfortunately, it is again spreading quickly and virulently in the Church.
This is our moment to PRAY, STAND, and SPEAK.
Thank you for loving the Jewish people. And the TRUTH.
