“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4 KJV).
To the nation of Israel and dispersed Jews throughout the world:
There is one issue between you and your God that holds the key to your peace. Addressing this issue is the answer to all your problems, no matter what they are.
When you confess you slew an innocent man, you confess Jesus is your Messiah.
Here are the facts:
#1 – Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach, lived as a Jew in the nation of Israel.
#2 – The Jewish religious authorities sought to kill Him, and had Him killed, because of His claim to be one with God. The people supported the verdict of their religious leaders and even requested Jesus’ death over that of a murderer. Jesus Christ was murdered at the instigation and insistence of His own people, who delivered Him over to the Romans.
#3 – The Jews killed an innocent person. Jesus had done nothing worthy of death or of any punishment.
#4 – On the contrary, He proved He was Who He said He was, the Messiah. He proved this by His works and by His resurrection from the dead, even as the Law and prophets declare. Many prophecies from the Scriptures pointed to Him – from the Torah, the prophets, and Psalms, and He fulfilled them all by His life, death, and resurrection.
If you, the nation of Israel and Jews throughout the world, confess that Jesus of Nazareth is innocent, you acknowledge your guilt in shedding innocent blood. If, knowing His claims, you confess Jesus is innocent, you also acknowledge He is Who He said He is. When you confess you have slain an innocent man, you confess that Jesus is your Messiah.
He certainly spoke to you as your Messiah:
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to her, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not!” (Matthew 23:37 MKJV)
You killed Him not just for what He claimed to be, but for Whom He proved Himself to be. Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, said to Him:
“Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no man can do these miracles which You do unless God is with him” (John 3:2 MKJV).
You have been defensive and fearful because you slew your Messiah.
Jesus prophesied what your rejection and murder of Him would mean for you:
Matthew 21:33-41 MKJV
(33) Hear another parable. There was a certain housemaster who planted a vineyard and hedged it round about, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and rented it to vinedressers, and went into a far country.
(34) And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers to receive its fruits.
(35) And the vinedressers took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
(36) Again he sent other servants, more than the first, and they did the same to them.
(37) But last of all he sent his son to them, saying, They will respect my son.
(38) But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and get hold of his inheritance.
(39) And taking him, they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
(40) Therefore when the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?
(41) They said to Him, Bad men! He will miserably destroy them and will rent out his vineyard to other vinedressers who will give him the fruits in their seasons.
Have you not been persecuted and slaughtered as “Christ-killers”? That was the major charge during the Crusades and underlying many persecutions ever since. The Muslims have also used this accusation against you. “They are the Christ-killers; kill them!” they cry.
You have been defensive and fearful because you slew your Messiah, which put you in denial mode: “We didn’t do it; the Romans did it.” But He, your Messiah, foretold what would happen to your nation and Jerusalem because of your culpability, which was greater than that of the Romans who passed the sentence you sought. Speaking to Pilate, who represented Rome, Jesus said: “You would have no authority at all against Me unless it had been given to you from above. Therefore the one who betrayed Me to you has a greater sin” (John 19:11 EMTV).
Some of you might even admit that you did do it, claiming to have done the right thing, still charging the Anointed One with blasphemy, because you did not and do not believe Him. But He was innocent of all charges, you surely must know.
Israel, it is time to face your God and your Judge. This matter is between you and Him. He is the One you should fear, instead of fearing the judgment of those who accuse you before the world.
You must stand up, lay down your lives, and say, “We are guilty.”
Do not say, “We had nothing to do with what happened 2,000 years ago.” Have you not inherited your blood, DNA, customs, traditions, and lineage from your ancestors? So have you inherited unconfessed and unrepented-of sin, particularly the most egregious one of slaying your nation’s Savior.
Now we present the way to the victory of all victories, turning the greatest of curses into the greatest of blessings.
In the face of what could be your deadliest condemnation, you must stand up, lay down your lives, and say, “We are guilty; we killed an innocent man. We turned Yeshua HaMashiach over to the Romans. We are Christ-killers. We slew the Anointed One.”
This is your parole hearing. The parole board wants to see your genuine recognition and acknowledgment of wrongdoing, which moves the board to give parole.
Isaiah 1:18-20 HNV
(18) “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the LORD: “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
(19) If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land;
(20) but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.”
Heaven awaits these words from you:
“We are guilty as charged. Yes, we are the Christ-killers. We are wrong; we have committed the greatest of evils; we repent in dust and ashes. We deserve all the evils that have befallen us throughout the ages. Against our Maker, Whose Son we slew, we acknowledge our sin, and to Him we appeal for mercy and deliverance, though we do not deserve it.”
Confession will seem to be your death sentence. It will not only seem to be; it will be, because this will be the end of your existence as you have known it.
This is your key out of death and Hell, and out of loss, failure, and defeat.
The thing you fear, which will be your final undoing, is the very thing you must do to come to life, to victory, to be raised from the dead. You must not fear what men can do to you. Public confession of your great sin is your ticket to life, victory, and release from condemnation into freedom. What is spoken here is the key to the climactic turnaround you have been so long awaiting.
This is your key out of death and Hell, and out of loss, failure, and defeat.
This is your key to life.
The moment you acknowledge you killed the Messiah, He saves you from yourself, the Devil, and sin. Though Satan via the world (including Muslims and nominal Christians) has used the accusation of Christ-killer against you, he is immediately dehorned, defanged, declawed, dethroned, and defeated when you confess the specific evil of murdering your and the world’s Messiah, Jesus Christ.
When this happens, you will no longer be the tail, but the head of the whole earth, forevermore. Nothing will be impossible to you. There is nothing He will not do for you:
Romans 8:31-34 HNV
(31) What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
(32) He Who didn’t spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how would He not also with Him freely give us all things?
(33) Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God Who justifies.
(34) Who is he who condemns? It is Messiah Who died, yes rather, Who was raised from the dead, Who is at the right hand of God, Who also makes intercession for us.
Acknowledge your wrong, publicly, and then see the salvation of the Lord.
You have been accused throughout history of subverting nations and being the prime source of all evils, and you have done all kinds of evil in the earth, including the greatest evil possible, when you Jews, of all peoples and nations, should have known better, having been chosen of God, and instructed out of the Law of Moses by your priests and prophets.
With acknowledgment of your guilt, you will set a new, historical, world-transforming course and will begin to be instruments of justice, equity, and righteousness toward all.
And whereas you have been hated and despised, now you will begin to be honored and loved, because your Maker, Whom you slew, will make it so for you. And no man or nation or army, small or great, can withstand the Maker’s will and power to bless His people Israel.
Jews of the world, this is your death sentence. Many are they that fear confession of wrongdoing, lest they should be punished. Your wrongdoing is the worst ever, and therefore you should fear the worst ever, and truly, have you not been receiving the worst ever? Surely, you have. Therefore acknowledge your wrong, publicly, before all, and then see the salvation of the Lord, according to His promise and His will to remember His covenant with you and to reverse your judgment.
Will your confession be your undoing? On the contrary, it will accomplish life from the dead. It is the narrow gate for you – the only gate leading to life and victory. Any other choice is destruction, your destruction – and the world’s, for the world’s salvation is directly connected to your salvation.
“Whosoever believes in Me shall never die” (John 11).
Here are the words of your God, Israel, which He will fulfill for you when you turn to Him:
Leviticus 26:40-42 KJV
(40) If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against Me, and that also they have walked contrary unto Me;
(41) And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
(42) Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob, and also My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
As your Messiah and Deliverer has said (and we know His words are true):
“Whosoever believes in Me shall never die” (John 11).
If the Jewish people confessed this from Israel, we, Victor and Paul, would wish to board a plane to Israel and stand with you. We, by God’s grace (we do not boast in ourselves), will take the brunt of the consequences for this with you, but we know there will not be evil consequences. It will be the opposite:
“The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in the LORD is kept safe” (Proverbs 29:25 HNV).

We Are Cursed for The Key
It was expected, as one would expect pus and putrefaction to emerge from a boil that was lanced. Cleansing and healing will follow, because God has ordained it for His people. Will you, Israel, identify with the pus or the Doctor?

Jews, Why I Am for You
What the God of Israel has done for me, and what He will do for you.
Your God Stands for You, Israel
A Letter of Promise, Hope, and Exhortation to the Dispersed and Oppressed Uncircumcised-in-Heart Seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
We witness the ungodly and unjust hatred for Jews everywhere and consider there is something important going on. We are also in awe of the marvelous historical developments and events, knowing very well, by God’s grace, that man cannot do what has developed concerning the Jews at any time, perhaps especially in this last century. Here is a letter of promise to God’s chosen in the flesh, based on His faithfulness and awesome power:
“I, even I, am He Who comforts you: who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who shall be made as grass; and have forgotten the LORD your Maker, Who stretched forth the Heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth…?” (Isaiah 51:12-13 HNV)
Israel, Is Your God Unjust?
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the hearts” (Proverbs 21:2 HNV).
Israel, come hear the Word of God, and let your hearts be revealed; know the Truth and be reconciled to Your Father. It is time. Of what value is it to continue in darkness, not knowing Him and His heart towards you, Who has loved you from days of old and draws you with lovingkindness?
Israel, the Explanation for the Horrendous Contradictions You Suffer
Israel, your God knows and sees what you suffer. He is not remote, unfamiliar, or unaffected by what is happening with you. There is a reason for your predicament, however, a reason that holds the key to the solution for all. There is an answer from God, which you need to hear and know.
