Flashback: 1901 Ethelbert W. Bullinger looking at the Doctrines and Politics of Zionism

Bullinger, Ethelbert W., Signs of the Times. Jewish Signs. The Zionist Movement. In: Things to Come. No. 89. 8(5):56-57.
Signs of the Times. Jewish Signs. The Zionist Movement.
The following remarks are from The Jewish Chronicle of Sept. 27, and are given as from "a Zionist correspondent." They are very weighty, and will be read with interest by our friends:-

..."in the leaderette in last week's Jewish Chronicle"... "Dr. Herzl is conducting further negotiations with the Sultan"... "in Zionist circles, in the upper ranks... discreet ignorance is professed"...


..."the forthcoming opening of the 'Jewish Colonial Trust' as a business enterprise"...


... "the Baron's [Baron de Hirsch's] secretary in those days was strongly Zionistic in his tendencies"...


..."Later, the [Jewish] Baron [Baron Maurice de Hirsch, Moritz von Hirsch] divided the 'philanthropic'
hemisphere with Baron Edmond de Rothschild [Baron Edmond Benjamin James de Rothschild], and so looked only westward"... "he plainly said, 'I believe we have more scope in the west.' He had a huge dream of a general exodus from Russia"... "The secret of Dr. Herzl's influence at 'Yildiz Kiosk' [residence of the sultan] is that he is negotiating for the Jews themselves, on their behalf direct."


"Baron Edmond de Rothschild's agents were spending freely to obtain title-deeds for the Baron's purchases in Palestine"... "these lavish sums were, at the instigation of the Russian Government" ... "The writer was shown a cutting from a Milwaukee paper which had magnified the 'Chovevi [Hovevi, Hovevei] Zion' proposals into a scheme for the Return, headed by Baron de Rothschild, and this cutting, it was stated, had been translated into Turkish by the Russians..."

[Then, Bullinger quotes and writes:]

"Another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive" (John 5:43).

These are the words of the Lord Jesus, who came in the Father's name and they received him not. They are generally and rightly taken as a prophetic announcement of the coming Antichrist.

A solemn "Sign of the times" shows us how everything is preparing for its fulfillment.

Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf, D.D., of Germantown, Philadelphia, has just given his 'Impressions of the Oberammergau Passion Play'... he concludes his book...:

"What the Christian world needs is another Jew, to complete the trinity of Jewish reformers - one who shall combine within himself the moral and religious purity of Jesus and the zeal and energy of Paul. He will be the long-expected Messiah. His coming will constitute the second advent of the Nazarene Master. The time for his coming is drawing nigh. Obsolete forms and meaningless rites are crumbling away. Offensive doctrines are disappearing. The Judaic Jesus is slowly regaining his lost ground. The Ethics of Judaism are gradually supplanting the Gnosticism of Paul. When the Jew shall have completely cast away his obstructive exclusiveness and ceremonialism, and the Christian his Christology, Jew and Gentile will be one."


We thus see how the way is preparing for the fulfillment of John 5:43. The true Christ who came in His Father's name was rejected: But, the False-Christ will ere long come in his own name, and him they will receive. The above extracts show how the Jewish mind is working in preparation for this awful consummation.
