Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, WHICH SAY THEY ARE JEWS, AND ARE NOT, BUT DO LIE; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Emphasis mine. I appreciate it when someone brings up this verse because it makes a clear distinction between real Jews and fake ones. Our real Jewish brothers are good people.
Just wanna quickly deboonk "Revelations". The book's abbreviated title is Revelation (no 's'). The full title is found in the first verse: The Revelation of Jesus Christ.
The real ones were Essenes and rejected the name Jew as the Jews were corrupt. When Paul says we are the temple of God, this truth was/is a universal truth and has existed since the beginning. Thus, God never actually lived in the external Tabernacle/Temple system and never commanded literal animal sacrifice. The Essenes understood the allegorical nature of Scripture and how it is an expression of our inner composition. The Essenes followed Jesus and became known as the Ebionites. The Ebionites were rejected from both Judaism and Christianity and eventually killed off by the sword once Christians gained political power and turned from oppressed to oppressor.
Ebionites are said to have understood Jesus of Nazareth as a mere man who, by virtue of his righteousness, was chosen by God to be the last true prophet who heralds the coming Kingdom of God on Earth, while a majority of them rejected as heresies the proto-orthodox Christian beliefs in his alleged divinity, pre-existence, virgin birth and substitutionary atonement
Accordingly, the Ebionites insisted on the necessity of following the Written Law of Moses alone (without the Oral Law); used one, some or all of the Jewish–Christian gospels, such as the Gospel of the Ebionites, as additional scripture to the Hebrew Bible; and revered James the Just as an exemplar of righteousness and the true successor to Jesus (rather than Peter), while rejecting Paul as a false apostle and an apostate from the Law
GHEY. Christianity does not need Jewish legalism. Yuck.
I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars--I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.
I know that you are descendants of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you. I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father. They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do what Abraham did. ... You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. But, because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? He who is of God hears the words of God; the reason why you do not hear them is you are not of God.
John 8:37-39
So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying "I am innocent of this man’s blood; see to it yourselves." And all the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!
The je... some people.
The Revolutions 3:9 crew... The ashkes are just that, the synagogue of Satan.
Revelations 3:9 --
Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, WHICH SAY THEY ARE JEWS, AND ARE NOT, BUT DO LIE; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

I wish Christian zionists would just pick one already.
The guys who utterly reject your Lord and Saviour, “good people”, it makes me laugh!

I doubt it. Ebionites sound like Judaizers.

Fascinating!
i hope this is not an antisemitic post. . .
It's a Bible reference
But the Bible is quite anti-Semitic
John 8:37-39
Matthew 27:24–25
The quote clearly states that the disciples of Satan will claim to be Jewish but in fact will not be. The post is anti-Satanic, not anti-Semitic.
Need to make it 110!
OY
Hahaha
