According to the Campaign Against Antisemitism, several Twitter users reported that their accounts were locked after they posted the Jewish symbol the Star of David during July. Andy Woods and Jim McGowan of Sugar Land Bible Church were quick to point the finger, but their accusations regarding Twitter's alleged antisemitism are false. (37:00 mark) Woods and McGowan must have been aware that Twitter acted quickly to correct their error two days prior to the date they recorded this video.

Woods continued: "There is so much complete and total nonsense floating around today concerning the Star of David. ..Wikipedia were trying to link the Star of David, which is the national symbol for Israel, to Satanism, the occult and the pentagram. Folks that is just rubbish and that is just absolute insanity.."  Actually Wikipedia does not link the Star of David to Satanism or the occult {1}

Woods went on to make the false assertion that the Star of David comes from the oracle of Balaam in the book of Numbers:

I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near: a star shall come out of Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Israel; it shall crush the forehead of Moab and break down all the sons of Sheth. (Numbers 24:17).

This verse is a reference to the Messiah! There is no evidence whatsoever that this verse relates to the Star of David!

Encyclopedia Britannica: "The Jewish community of Prague was the first to use the Star of David as its official symbol, and from the 17th century on the six-pointed star became the official seal of many Jewish communities and a general sign of Judaism though it has no biblical or Talmudic authority." {2}

M. Hirsch Goldberg in his book The Jewish Connection states: "The Star of David is not of Jewish origin - and the ancient Israelites never used it as their religious symbol" (they used the Menorah or Seven Candlestick). {3} 

A short excerpt of my previous research into this subject in 2017 below reveals some disturbing facts.

In reality the hexagram star is the star of rephaim/repham/remphan and has particular evil connotations in both the Old and the New Testaments. Remphan has links with Moloch, a Canaanite god associated with child sacrifice. Stephen condemned the practices associated with "Moloch and the star of your god Rephan" shortly before he was stoned (Acts 7:43; Amos 5:26). This particular star god is known both as Rephan and Kalwan (Hebrew Chiun). Kewan is probably the Old Babylonian Kayawanu for the planet Saturn. Stars are often associated with, and named after, specific pagan gods, for instance Aphrodite is Venus, Zeus is Jupiter etc. The "host of heaven" presented a particular temptation for the ancient Israelites towards false worship (1 Kings 21:3; 2 Kings 21:1). The Israelites were censured for false worship of the sun god Adrammelech (2 Kings 17:31) and Amon (Jeremiah 46:25); the moon goddess Anammelech and Diana/Artemis (Acts 19:24-35); and Merodach/Marduk (Mars?) (Jeremiah 50:2). Stars are sometimes illustrative of angels and fallen angels in the scriptures. (Job 38:7; Revelation 1:20; Revelation 12:4). John erroneously fell down to worship at the feet of an angel (Revelation 22:8). Satan himself, the "shining one" translated "star of the morning", masquerades as an angel of light. (Isaiah 14:12; 2 Corinthians 11:14) in the place of Jesus Christ, the bright morning star. (Revelation 22:16). The Masonic Dictionary provides convincing evidence that the "star of Remphan" refers to the Seal of Solomon.

The Star or Shield of David became an official symbol of Judaism after it was chosen to represent the First Zionist Congress in 1897 by secular Jew, Theodore Herzl. Herzl was the President of World Zionism and the founder of the First Zionist Congress, the political movement created to ensure a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Edmond de Rothschild, the real power behind Zionism, worked closely with both Theodore Herzl and his successor, Chaim Weizmann. Rothschild told Weizmann: "Without me Zionism would not have succeeded...."  Hence, the “Rothschild Hexagram” was adopted as the "flag of Zion" in 1948. When the Flag of Israel was unveiled, it met with tremendous opposition from many Jews who were aware of its historical connection with the mystery religions as the symbol of Moloch:

"..the symbol continued to be controversial for many years afterward. When the modern state of Israel was founded, there was much debate over whether this symbol should be used on the flag." {4} 

Opposition to the hexagram star symbol necessitated significant revisionist propaganda in order to transform it into an acceptable Jewish symbol. The saying: "If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it" is attributed to Joseph Goebbels. The often repeated revised explanation for the hexagram star is as follows:

"The two blue stripes represent a tallit or prayer shawl, and both sides of the split Red Sea that the Hebrews walked through as written in the Book of Exodus." 

"The Star of David also represents the Jewish identity of Israel, as well as the culture and history of the Israeli people." {5}

In reality, the star of Remphan morphed into the occult Seal of Solomon and the Rothschild Hexagram aka the Illuminati Hexagram. I view Magen David as a satanic facade in order to obscure the true demonic history of the Star of Remphan. Even the designation 'the shield of David' is a misnomer. With no scriptural basis and all the evidence of evil and death attending this symbol prior to the 19th century, the hexagram is surely not God's choice for the symbol of Israel. This symbol evokes the propensity for the ancient Israelites to worship the true God and other gods concurrently. We therefore have the usurper, the so called Star or Shield of David, competing with the menorah for precedence. 

I can't imagine what Andy Woods' motives are for making such deceptive assertions, but his assumptions regarding the Star of David have no factual basis whatsoever. I caution those who follow Woods to be very wary indeed. (1 John 4:1).
