Dear John and Doves:
Please forgive me for taking so long to respond. I wish that I had more time to post, but I don’t and I’ve been gathering information regarding this subject and putting it together in my spare time.
Thank you Jim H, Rowina, and Sandra J for your comments regarding “I’m Shocked”.
Kevin, I don’t know if you post on the 5 Doves, but you’re apparently a reader. Thank you for your comments.
This new (but not so new) teaching, questioning Jesus’ Jewishness, has been on the internet, as far as I know, for a number of months, but I just discovered it recently. To couple this with the Khazarian Jew theory, well, I just don’t know what to say, except that I’ll share what I know about it, a little bit in this letter and more in separate letters.
I had actually read about the Khazarian Jew theory several years ago and had already done a little research on that theory, back then. Also, I already knew a few things about Henry Ford.

Jim H:
I am unable to watch the video by David J. Smith due to a computer problem. The title of the video “The Zionist-Occult Connection” implies that it is similar in content to the article posted from Bible Believers. It was, after all, posted to back up the articles. I don’t know much about him or his beliefs. I couldn’t find a “statement of faith” posted on his website. I did find one article on his website that mentions the Khazars.
Bible Believers is an organization that, according to the article below on Wikipedia, does promote anti-Semitism and denies the holocaust.

Bible Believers
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblebelievers
One of the pages on the Bible Believers site shows a list of conspiracy scholars. They include a few names like J.R. Church. I have the book by J.R. Church, “Guardians of the Grail”. On pages iii and iv of the forward, J.R. Church wrote this: “I especially want to distance myself from anti-Semitic groups who tend to blame the Jews for the conspiracy”.
Bible Believers also has posted on their website “The Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion”
On page 167, in the 9th chapter of his book “Guardians of the Grail”, J.R. Church writes that “The Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion” is a forgery. This forgery is one of the reasons for the belief that Jews are trying to take over the world. Anti-Semitic groups still spread this around, like it is truth. The “Zion” referred to may actually be “Sion”. You can look it up in Strong’s Concordance. It is #H7865 and it is another name of Mount Hermon, the place where the fallen angels came down in Enoch. Considering the fact that this writing was in circulation as early as 1884 (13 years before the 1st Zionist Congress in 1897), there is speculation that it was written by the Illuminati.

Rowina:
Thank you for the information that you provided. I will be posting some additional information separately about some of the genetic research that has been conducted to test the Khazarian Jew theory. You probably already know some of these things, but maybe you’ll find the information interesting and maybe it will help others to understand my feelings about it. Some Khazars did convert to Judaism and some of these Jews may still exist, but they don’t appear to be the majority of Jews. As you will see from the studies, there are not actually any viable Khazar remains to do a very accurate test.
The problem that I have with this is not that some Jews may have Khazarian bloodlines, but that Neo-Nazis, the KKK, Islamist groups, etc. present this theory as fact and as an excuse to promote their anti-Semitic ideology against all Jews. Some of these groups claim that all modern day Jews are descended from Khazars and have no ethnic Jewish bloodlines. This type of rhetoric is used to dispute the right of the Jews to live in their ancestral homeland and to attempt to de-legitimatize the State of Israel. Ahmadinejab of Iran also spews this rhetoric and denies the holocaust. If some Jews have Khazarite bloodlines, this is still no excuse for the prejudice and hatred for them or for any of the Jews, no matter what shows up in the DNA testing.
I believe that you’re right that a lot of people have Jewish or Israelite bloodlines and simply don’t know it. I also believe that there is a lot of speculation and misinformation floating around. I think that they’ve been blamed for more than a few things that they were not responsible for, like the plague for instance. There’s been a lot of evil done in this world by people of many ethnic backgrounds and many religions. That includes Christians as well as Jews. (not preaching to you, Rowina) We are to love our enemies and spread the gospel. We are not taught to persecute them. It is for God to judge and punish, not Christians. Mark 6:11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Sandra Jean:
It came as a shock to me that anyone would even question the fact that Jesus is a Jew. As a matter of fact, this was the “big” shock to me. There are a number of verses in the Bible that verify that Jesus (the human part of him) was a Jew. Jesus taught in Jewish synagogues, He taught in the Jewish Temple, He was circumcised on the 8th day, He obeyed Jewish laws perfectly, He kept passover, etc. The Bible tells the truth and it absolutely takes precedence over any other sources of information. Again, thank you for the verses that you provided.
