you're not realizing something fundamentally important, and that is the greatest lie ever created.... that something as wonderfully divine as god would choose one race out of all the world. it shows biasim and that is a human defect something impossible for god. 2 jesus, if you read the new testament enough you will notice that his message was mainly this.. hey jewish people turn from the old teachings they are stupid and not really from god but from a smart man that wanted to keep a stubborn stiffnecked people from killing each other. and for this the jews tried to kill him three different times before finally succeeding. gods chosen race= jews greatest lie. and yes zionism is the enemy of the world!

Yes, that was a big for rejecting Jesus. They thought the Messiah would come as an Earthly king of Jews to establish Jewish dominance over Gentiles. Gentiles = all non-jews

Just a little bit of 1st hand input.
John Nelson Darby founded the "Plymouth Brethren" later called the "Exclusive Plymouth Brethren" and finally the "Exclusive Brethren" which continues today but it's numbers would be in the tens/hundreds of thousands world wide. They claim to be the only true Christians.
JND's main claim to fame was the "pre-Tribulation Rapture" doctrine..
I was born into this sect in 1963 and we remained in it until I was around 13yo.... I grew up reading the JND translation of the Bible which is only slightly different from the KJV, and closer to it than some of the modern translations....... This sect believes that they are literally the only people who are going to Heaven, and all outsiders are going to Hell.... They are well skilled in brainwashing and have an extremely strong psychological hold over their members.. They are "exclusive" in that their doors are closed to all outsiders and one can only be born into it. There are no converts.
During my time in the sect, they did not call themselves Zionists.. They did not teach the "false apostle Paul" doctrine. which is something I learned of only a few years ago.
