Good morning 🌞 Here are some of the scriptural reasons Bible-believing Christians support Israel. We see Jews as the descendants of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. We also see their return to their ancestral homeland as fulfillment of prophecy. “Then say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and bring them to their own land.” Ezekiel 37:21 (ESV). “I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:3 (ESV). “I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit. I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them,” says the Lord your God.” Amos 9: 14-15 (ESV). #prayer #Christian #Israel #Jewish #Muslim
PLUS they've lived there THOUSANDS of years, were allowed to gathaer together and establish a State (a Nation once again). Arabs are allowed to work/live in the Israel State (est. right after WWII 1948) The many efforts to establish an Arab State keeps failing because the leaders do not want to give up the MILLIONS in foreign aid that has poured into the Arab portions (GAZA and WEST BANK) of that area. ALL OF THE FOREIGN $$ has been taken by a few Palestinians, away from the PEOPLE. IF PEACE is DESIRED in the "PALESTINIAN AREA". the mandate: Form a STATE or no more $$$ from foreign Nations must happen. As it is, only a few get their hands on the $$$ and live high on the hog in QATAR!!!
@carolmswain There is also Ezekiel 47:22 "You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who dwell among you and who have children. You are to treat them as native-born Israelites; along with you, they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel."
@carolmswain Always nothing but wisdom coming from you! Thank you for this!
"However, the days are coming," declares the Lord, "when men will no longer say, `As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,' but they will say, `As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.' For I will restore them to the land I gave their forefathers. Jeremiah 31:35-36
Dr Swain. The line of Abraham is based on being a FOLLOWER of God’s promises with a circumcised heart. NOT being an in flesh descendent of the children of Abraham Issac and Jacob who all went astray following the ways of men in the wilderness. That Israel never entered the promised land of modern Israel at all, they died in the desert. Those who obey the promises of God are the Israelites of God. Those who obey the law of Moses prove they are Abraham’s children and recognize the Messiah, as He himself said. So don’t over apply the text. Don’t be like Saul who persecuted Christ. Bless like the apostle Paul who was persecuted for Christ. Modern Israel is only a good democracy in a land full of good tourist attractions. The temple of the Messiah is in His modern followers who are spreading the gospel all over the world. The Jewish Israel will not be restored as both land and Israel until the Messiah comes OR comes again. To be a blessing, bless our children with a world filled with the promise of Abraham not the men who follow the ways of man.
There only ever was one people because Abraham is “the Father of MANY nations.” Namely those who by faith believe God and LIVE by faith in God. Many liberal Jews are atheists, how does that work? Soros type Jews are perfect examples of the Rich men in Jesus’ parables with rich men in them. Also the Nation of Israel IS 100% legit, it is a democracy we LIKE. But the are NOT like the people Joshua brought into the promised land. They behave like the mixture that existed during Jezebel and Elijah time. Read the Bible. Also note if you want to get provocative that Melchizedek, king of Jerusalem Was a Jebusite AND Jebusites were pre Canaanites who rules Jerusalem until KING DAVID. Jebusites were protected by Abraham who blessed and paid tribute to Melchizedek who must have discipled Abraham in some special way. Note also that the Phoenician type Corsair’s who lived in the stretch of land that we call Ga*a where Goliath was from and where Sampson took a wife. Those people ALSO were NOT Canaanites. They arrived in the West of Israel just as Joshua arrived on the East of Israel. So the whole story is in reality much cooler since Jezebel like Delilah are NOT Israeli or Jewish but they had a massive impact on how Israel history is unfolding today. 😇😂😇💡
