Modern Israel

[angels4u]

Daniel,

I'm getting tired of this Israel bashing , you do have a problem with it don't you?

You better start praying about it and looking inside of yourself and see if everything there is right.

Do you really think God is pleased with your attitude, do you know that Jesus was a Jew?

I start to think you're here to cause trouble and I hope the moderaters will pick up on it

Why not start something more positive??

Angels

Are the modern Israelis God's people?

The Palestinians don't think so

Should we, as Christians, not pentacostilianbaptisitianscatholicsnonsensehypocrits, just Christians, back everything they do? If they are God's children, just as they were in the OT, then should we take a different view on them?

Throughout history God has not backed everything they have done so why should we. At least once, as I remember, He wanted to kill them all....

If they are doing what is right, we should back them..... if not then we should tell them so and not stand behind what they are doing but also not turn our backs on them altogether. God never did that and we should not either.

Careful...God let His vengence burn against them...but what happened to nations that went against Israel...even when He told them to? I'll support them no matter what, because the alternative is death.

SJ, what I am trying to say is that we should not support the things that they may do that is against Gods teaching. An example I firmly believe it is a mistake to give up any of the land that was part of the original promise to Abraham. It will come back to haunt us if we support actions like this.

As for protecting themselves, I am behind them. Other things I am not.

No matter what is pretty strong...... remember that the Pharisees did not simply go away in 0064..... no matter what...... hummm that could be very dangerous also. As I remember our Lord was not pleased with those people and warned us about them and their teaching........ no matter what..... no, I can't go along with that at all.

I think what SJ is saying is that we support Israel in their struggle for survival, "no matter what." Not supporting things that violate the Scriptures is a given, and I think SJ assumed that as did I, when I read his statement.

The issue is that we who proclaim to be friends with Israel need to have an unswerving loyalty inspite of the times when Israel does things that we might disagree with. The true test of friendship and loyalty is when your friends will stick by you even when you mess up.
