Maybe you are wondering why Jews and Arabs both want control of Jerusalem. To understand the current Middle East crisis, you need to understand the history of Jerusalem. This article was written by Dave Hunt for The Berean Call. http://www.thebereancall.org/newsletters/sep00.htm THE BEREAN CALL September 2000 And when he (Jesus) was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it.... O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.... And they...shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Luke 19:41; 13:34-35; 21:24 Jerusalem is undisputably, year after year, the top news story in the world. That fact reflects the fulfillment of multiple prophecies concerning this remarkable city and its unique place in God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The covenant with the Jews was fulfilled! Jesus was The Lamb of God! No more animal-sacrifices. God gave the last blood sacrifice that God will accept, CHRIST! The veil of the temple was rent signifying that the only way to get to the Holiest of all is through CHRIST!But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.When Jesus Died on the cross for our sins, the kingdom of God was taken from the Jews and given to all those who accepted Christ as their savior.Before Jesus died the high priest would go into the temple and make a blood offering for the sins of the people.

Neb, do you realize that Jesus is returning soon? If there is one overwhelming proof that the Bible is the Word of God, it is the nation of Israel. For nearly 2000 years the Jews have been scattered throughout the world. I can't trace my heritage back four generations, but 2000 years! That is miraculous that a people retain their identity for that long without a homeland. George has provided many scriptures about the regathering of Israel back to the land promised to them by God. All of your speculation is meaningless. The proof is staring you in the face. Don't you understand? Jesus is coming back! You're preaching the wrong message. You are distracting people, not leading them to truth. It doesn't matter who sinned more or which government is more corrupt, we are all sinners and Jesus has made a way for us. Don't you understand?

It is the worship of the flesh. Your salvation is ONLY THROUGH CHRIST! Worshipping fleshly Israel will get you nowhere. Deliverer will come out of Zion. He already came! there is no more offering for sin. ONLY THROUGH CHRIST! ONLY THROUGH CHRIST! ONLY THROUGH CHRIST!And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
