Jews have suffered at the hands of Gentile Christians since ancient Rome. THE CHURCH HAS ALIENATED THE JEWISH PEOPLE FROM THE JEWISH SAVIOR, this book explains how & why. These issues & fascinating aspects of EARLY CHURCH HISTORY are discussed: THE 1ST 15 POPES (BISHOPS) WERE JEWISH! The 1st European white man in America was Jewish; The 1st century Church was predominantly "Jews for Jesus"; The author is eminently qualified to write on these subjects. Born & raised in a traditional Jewish home, his family was profoundly affected by anti-Semitism. New (1995) trade paperback, 159p., $12.95. EICB, P.O. Box 668, Dyer, IN 46311-0668, 1-800-688-3422.
