I believe Israel is VERY important
Israel is very important to end time events. i'm just sorry to say Westi that you don't seem to understand the proper definition of what the true Israel of God is.
God gave His chosen people, the Jews, the land.
well, i will set aside the fact that the term "jew" as it is currently translated does not appear in the bible until the 12th book--long after abraham, isaac, jacob, moses, david, etc. were dead. if you want to use the term "jew" in a broad sense that is fine by me. i do it myself sometimes, depending on the circumstance. God did indeed keep his promise to Israel as is clearly enunciated in joshua:
"And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein. And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand. There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass." --Joshua 21:43-45
But, God loves Israel,
God is Israel. Christians are sons and daughters of God and therefore are members of the commonwealth of Israel by way of faith in Christ.
the Jews, and He still does.
how do you define a Jew? you will not understand prophecy or the will of God if you don't understand just who is Israel and who is a Jew and who are the imposters posing as such. |
