What Non-Jews Can Do When Antisemitism Strikes

When Jewish homes are firebombed, when Jewish kids are bullied in schools for wearing a Star of David, when mobs chant "Death to the Jews" in the streets of London, Paris, Sydney, and New York, and you say nothing, you’re choosing a side. Neutrality isn’t neutral when Jews are under attack. It’s betrayal.

If anyone thinks Antisemitism is “just a Jewish issue,” they are wrong. It’s a moral test. And right now, the world is failing.
The Lies Are Loud. Will You Be Louder?
We’re living through a resurgence of hate that most people thought died with the ashes of the Holocaust. But it never died. It just got more "fashionable", more “progressive,” more Instagrammable. It wears a keffiyeh now. It marches on college campuses screaming “From the river to the sea” - which, let’s be honest, is just a poetic way of calling for genocide.
Jews today are being harassed, attacked, and murdered not despite being Jews, but because they are Jews. And the worst part? The world yawns.
The world screamed for George Floyd. The world mourned global crises. The world panicked over climate change. But when Jewish blood spills? When Hamas beheads Jewish babies or Jewish students are locked in college libraries while mobs bang on the doors chanting “intifada”? The world checks its phone, shrugs, and moves on.
And many Christians, God-fearing, Bible-loving Christians, don’t know what to do. So they stay quiet. Maybe they don’t want to offend. Maybe they’re afraid of sounding political. But staying quiet in the face of evil isn’t love.
If you follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, you cannot be silent when the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are being hunted.
“For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet…” (Isaiah 62:1)

So What Can You Actually Do?
You don’t need to be Jewish to stand with the Jews. You just need a spine. And a conscience.
Here’s how you show up:
Speak up. Loudly. Publicly. Post about it. Preach about it. Pray about it. Don’t whisper support in private, say it where it costs something. When you see antisemitism online, don’t scroll past. Hit back. Facts. Truth. Scripture. Use your voice while you still have one.
Call it what it is. Antisemitism isn't “criticism of Israel.” It’s hating Jews and disguising it as politics. If someone wants all Jews dead, which is what “intifada” and “from the river to the sea” actually mean, say so. Don’t play word games.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. That’s not just a pretty verse. It’s a command. Pray like Jewish lives depend on it, because they do. Psalm 122:6 says, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: ‘May those who love you be secure.’” Love for Israel brings blessing. Ignoring Israel brings judgment.
Show up in real life. Go to a rally against Antisemitism. Call your Jewish friend. Show them you care. Let them know they’re not alone. Wear a Star of David pin. Fly an Israeli flag. Put your body in the place your heart claims to be.
Stop funding hate. If your church, university, or company funds organizations that support Hamas or boycott Israel, speak up or walk out. You wouldn’t fund neo-Nazis. Why fund their modern equivalents?
Teach your children. If your kids don’t understand the Holocaust, the Bible, or what antisemitism looks like, educate them before the world does. Schools are brainwashing them to believe that Jews are “white colonizers.” You need to raise warriors who know the truth.

Why It Matters to You
The Jews are not a side character in the story of the world. They’re the centerpiece of God’s plan. Every Christian who holds a Bible is holding a Jewish book.
So when antisemitism rises, and you stay silent, you're not just abandoning your Jewish neighbors. You're turning your back on your own spiritual roots. You are cutting yourself off from the very tree that gave you life.
Antisemitism is Satanic. It’s not just political or racial. It’s demonic. It always has been. Because if Satan can wipe out the Jews, he can make God a liar. He can prevent the fulfillment of prophecy. That’s why the Jews have been hunted for centuries, from Pharaoh to Hitler to Hamas. But they’re still here. And God isn’t done with them. We are not going anywhere.
It’s Not Too Late to Stand on the Right Side of History
History is watching. Heaven is watching. And your Jewish friends are watching, too.
The next time they hear “kill the Jews” shouted in the street, what will they remember about you? That you spoke up? Or that you disappeared?
This isn’t about being political. It’s about being human. It’s about refusing to look away when the oldest hatred on earth shows its face again.
Choose courage. Choose truth. Choose life.
Because silence is no longer neutral. Silence is betrayal. And if you’re not standing with the Jews when they’re under fire, you’re standing against them.
And one day, when the dust settles, and history judges this moment, may it be said of you:
They did not stay silent. They stood with Israel .They loved the Jews. And they refused to bow to evil.
