PRAY WITH US about Amsterdam pogrom targets 100s: Father God, You are a good, good Father. And You are good all the time. But we have suffered under the sins of our human fathers. And if we don’t learn from them, we may repeat them. So we confess the sins of German, Europeans, and all those who gave way to the evils of genocide. Certainly sins against Your chosen people bring a curse, as You told Abraham. But if we bless Your chosen people, and all who bless them, we too will be blessed by You.
We confess antisemitism and all racism as sin against people made in the image of God. And we declare You have not destined us to continue to sin, steal, kill or destroy. That is the devil’s work. So we ask you to release a new work of confession, forgiveness, right relationship and love between former enemies. Even to love our enemies until, miraculously, they become Your friends and ours. We submit to the power of the cross to gain the reward of Your great sacrifice for us. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The thugs attacked hundreds of Israelis, beating and stabbing and ramming at them with cars. They stole cell phones and passports and spread their personal info on the web. And they threw some of them into the canal. This happened on the eve of Kristallnacht’s 86th anniversary…
