Why Christians should support Israel?

[Jedi4Yahweh]

Somehow I assume that I will be a minority voice in here, but...

The Messiah has come.

Tehillim (Psalms) 122 is a good reason to support Israel in prayer: A song of ascents. By David:

The Isreal of the future is the only nation any christain should support. All other nations have been condemmed and destroyed by the LORD. It is in prophecy. Isn't it time for those who say they believe in the LORD to start acting like they believe.

Isaiah 34:

1 Come near, you nations, to hear; And heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, The world and all things that come forth from it.

2 For the indignation of the Lord is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter. 3 Also their slain shall be thrown out; Their stench shall rise from their corpses, And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.

Actually God himself supports the modern nation of Israel. It is in existence because of His Will. Certainly I cannot live by a higher standard than He does.

The prophet Zechariah gives us a look at modern Israel. There is no time in history post-Zechariah where the following has ever been true about the nation of Israel until now. Zech. 12:6-9

"In that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot among pieces of wood and a flaming torch among sheaves, so they will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples, while the inhabitants of Jerusalem again dwell on their own sites in Jerusalem. [7] "The Lord also will save the tents of Judah first in order that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not be magnified above Judah. [8] "In that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the one who is feeble among them in that day will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord before them. [9] "And it will come about in that day that I will set about to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

Furthermore, Chapter 36 of Ezekiel shows how that God will bring His people back to the land of Israel, and then restore them spiritually. It says in the same chapter that the Land of Israel will begin to produce for the children of Israel when it would not produce for anyone else living there. That has come true in our day. Israel was a wasteland of swamps and deserts for over 1800 years until the Jewish people returned to the Land. Now it is one the largest per captia exporters of fruits and vegitables, textiles and technology.

The rebirth of modern Israel is the product of the Will of God.

The Isreal of the kingdom of GOD is the only one that will be saved. All other nations HE has raised up for the purpose to destroy them at the end. To teach his people a unforgetable lesson.

Romans 9:

. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth."

18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.

19 You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?"

20 But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"

21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

22 What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

23 and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,

Even unbelievers are under the grace of GOD right now. but the day is coming soon when the reposesors will show up at the door.

Wheather blood line Jew or Grafted in Jew it no longer matters and there is no longer a distinction.

Ga 3:28

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

When He sees that their power is gone, And there is no one remaining, bond or free.

Notice where the subjects of the kingdom came from.

Re 7:9

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

Yep. all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues,

Thats where the kingdom of GOD is right now at this very hour. Every nation has some.

In CHRIST JESUS :hug: :hug: :hug:

Not all Jews are unbelievers.

Yup.

Which, I suppose, would make them Christians.

And the last time I checked, even a Goy like me can do that.

The fact remains that the Modern nation of Israel is here and this is by the Will and Providence of God. It is biblical fact.

This is not a Kingdom of God issue. It is about God's integrity. If you read Ezekiel 36, you will see that God restores Israel for the sake of His Name. Israel is here because it shows that God is true to His Word. If He did not restore Israel, then He would be profaned as a liar among the nations, and we would not be able to trust His promises concerning salvation.

This is also a covenant issue. God has a covenant with the Jewish people, and it is an eternal Covenant, that He has bound Himself to. While there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile regarding salvation, God still has a Covenant that He has made with Abraham, and He has obligated Himself to keep it, and that means that He will preserve the Jewish Land and the Jewish People so that the world can see that He is a God who keeps His covenant lpromises.
