Dear Greg, In Joshua, 1 & 2 Samuel, 1 & 2 Kings, 1 & 2 Chronicles it is all about God fighting for the land He had sworn to Abraham. Clearly a 3rd regathering is foretold in scripture and is what we are seeing. Romans 11 predicts a National repentance and so did Jesus. Unfortunately you will probably find it not worth your time to discuss Israel here. Anti Semitism in Christians is the biggest reason for Jews not accepting Jesus. It is unacceptable and they will receive the just reward. Obadiah 12 You should not look down on your brother in the day of his misfortune, nor rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction, nor boast so much in the day of their trouble 13 You should not march through the gates of my people in the day of their disaster, nor look down on them in their calamity
15 The day of the Lord is near for all Nations As you have done it will be done to you: your deeds will return upon your own head. 16 Just as you drank on my holy hill, so all Nations will drink continually (salvation) they will drink and drink and be as if they had never been. 17 But on Mount Zion will be deliverance; it will be holy and the house of Jacob will possess its inheritance
This may seem like a harsh post to some, however, there is a history on this thread for being anti Semitic. I see that Emile is coming so beware he is full of hate for Jews all in the name of Jesus. Nancy |
