WHY DOES SATAN WANT THE CHURCH TO HATE ISRAEL?

If Satan hates the Church, why does he work so hard to make the Church hate Israel?

Because Israel is not merely a nation.

Israel is a testimony to the faithfulness of God.

From Genesis onward, God attached His name to specific promises concerning Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and their descendants.

"I will establish My covenant as an everlasting covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you." (Genesis 17:7)

He promised a people (Genesis 12:2).

He promised a land (Genesis 15:18-21).

He promised a throne (2 Samuel 7:12-16).

He promised a kingdom (Daniel 7:13-14; Luke 1:32-33).

And He promised that those covenants would endure.

This creates a problem for Satan.

If God fulfills those promises exactly as spoken, His faithfulness is vindicated before the entire world.

God told Abraham:

"I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse." (Genesis 12:3)

The issue is larger than one nation. It is about whether God keeps His word.

As Bible teacher Chuck Missler often observed, Satan's strategy has always been aimed at preventing God's program from reaching its appointed conclusion.

So Satan has pursued the same objective for thousands of years.

Not merely to destroy Israel physically.

But to undermine confidence in God's promises.

Consider the pattern:

❖ Pharaoh tried to destroy Israel's sons.

❖ Haman sought to exterminate the Jews.

❖ Antiochus desecrated the Temple.

❖ Herod slaughtered the infants of Bethlehem.

❖ Hitler attempted genocide.

❖ Hamas continues the hatred today.

Different centuries.

Different empires.

Same hatred (Psalm 83:1-8).

Same target (Zechariah 12:2-3).

The war did not begin in the Middle East.

It began with the promise of Genesis 3:15.

The promised Redeemer would come through a particular people, and Satan has opposed that people ever since.

But there is an even more subtle strategy.

If Satan cannot destroy Israel, perhaps he can convince the Church that Israel no longer matters.

Perhaps God's promises can be redefined.

Perhaps Israel can be replaced.

Perhaps prophecy can be spiritualized.

Perhaps Christians can be persuaded to boast against the very people through whom God gave the Scriptures, the prophets, and the Messiah Himself.

Paul warned the Church against exactly this attitude:

"Do not boast against the branches." (Romans 11:18)

And again:

"Do not be arrogant, but tremble." (Romans 11:20)

Notice that Paul never says God is finished with Israel.

In fact, he asks:

"Has God rejected His people? By no means!" (Romans 11:1)

And later declares:

"The gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable." (Romans 11:29)

Not temporary.

Not conditional.

Irrevocable.

Paul reminds us that to Israel belong:

"the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises." (Romans 9:4)

The adoption.

The glory.

The covenants.

The promises.

And from them came the Messiah Himself (Romans 9:5).

The issue is bigger than ethnicity.

Bigger than politics.

Bigger than modern borders.

The issue is whether God keeps His word.

Jeremiah records one of the most astonishing promises in Scripture:

"Only if these decrees vanish from my sight... will Israel ever cease being a nation before me." (Jeremiah 31:35-37)

As long as the sun shines.

As long as the moon remains.

As long as the stars fill the heavens.

God's covenant commitment to Israel remains.

Think about the alternative.

If God can permanently abandon Israel after making unconditional promises to her, what prevents Him from abandoning us?

If He can revoke an everlasting covenant, what confidence can we have in our own salvation?

The security of the believer ultimately rests upon the character of the Promise-Maker.

That is why Revelation 12 is so important.

The dragon hates the woman who brought forth the Messiah.

His hostility is not political.

It is prophetic.

Israel is connected to Messiah's first coming (Micah 5:2; Romans 9:5).

Israel is connected to Messiah's second coming (Zechariah 12:10; Matthew 23:39).

Israel is connected to the covenants, the kingdom, and the ultimate vindication of God's promises (Jeremiah 31:35-37).

And Satan knows it.

The irony is profound.

Jesus is Jewish.

The apostles were Jewish.

The prophets were Jewish.

The Scriptures came through the Jewish people.

The Savior came through the Jewish people.

Yet throughout history, some who claimed the name of Christ developed hostility toward the very people through whom God brought salvation to the world.

Scripture never tells believers to hate Israel.

It tells us not to boast.

Not to be arrogant.

Not to forget the root that supports us.

One day, the world will discover that God has not forgotten His covenant people (Zechariah 12:10; Romans 11:26).

Zechariah foresaw a future day when:

"Ten men from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew... and say, 'Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.'" (Zechariah 8:23)

Ultimately, Satan's attack on Israel has never really been about Israel.

It has always been an attack on the character of God.

Because if God can break His promises to Israel, He can break His promises to anyone.

But He cannot.

"God is not a man, that He should lie." (Numbers 23:19)

❤️ THANK YOU PASTOR THOM OF SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
I know Israel has MANY friends in SA.

WHY I STAND WITH Israel WHILE LOVING PEACE FOR ALL

I am a proud South African. I love my country, and I cherish the freedoms won through sacrifice, prayer, and struggle. But loving my country does not mean I must agree with every decision of its government. True patriotism allows room for conscience, truth, and principled disagreement.

Today, I choose to stand with Israel, while also loving peace, justice, and dignity for all people, including Palestinians.

I stand with Israel because I believe every nation has the right to exist in safety, to defend its citizens from terror, and to live without the constant threat of rockets, kidnappings, and violence. No people should be expected to accept attacks as normal life.

I stand with Israel because of historical truth. The Jewish people have ancient roots in that land, deep spiritual significance, and a long history marked by persecution, exile, and survival. To many believers, Israel also carries profound biblical significance.

I stand with Israel because I reject antisemitism in every form. Hatred against Jewish people has brought terrible suffering throughout history, and it must never be tolerated again.

But let it be equally clear: standing with Israel does not mean celebrating suffering. Innocent civilians, Israeli or Palestinian, should never be reduced to politics. Every child matters. Every grieving mother matters. Every innocent life matters.

I mourn for civilians caught in war. I pray for families in fear. I pray for healing in the region. I pray for wisdom among leaders. I pray for the defeat of terror and the triumph of peace.

As a South African, I also believe our nation should be fair, balanced, and morally consistent. If we speak for justice, then justice must be universal. If we defend human rights, then we must condemn terror, hostage-taking, hate, and violence wherever they appear.

My support for Israel is not hatred for Palestinians. My support for peace is not weakness. My support for truth is not political convenience.
I choose prayer over propaganda.
I choose principle over pressure.
I choose peace over slogans.
I choose truth over noise.

And so I say openly, without apology:
I stand with Israel.
I stand for peace.
I stand for justice.
I stand for the dignity of every human life.

Shalom
Pastor Thom

“An Open Letter to Roelf Meyer
From an Afrikaner to an Afrikaner Whose Loyalty Lies Elsewhere

Mr. Meyer,

You know my kind. I am the Afrikaner whose family and friends received none of the prizes, posts, consultancies, or ambassadorships that came your way after 1994. For thirty years we have spoken plainly around our dinner tables about what you did. For thirty years you have chosen not to hear it. It is time the truth was spoken in public.
You sold us, then you sold yourself.

In 1992, at the trout pool, in Kempton Park, and in your unauthorised bilateral channel with Cyril Ramaphosa, you made solemn promises on behalf of "my people". You guaranteed that sunset clauses would protect civil servants for five years. You assured us property rights were constitutionally non-negotiable. You pledged that Afrikaans language and cultural rights would be safeguarded. You promised a non-racial South Africa would actually be non-racial.

Every one of those promises has been broken.
The sunset clauses expired on schedule and the civil service was ruthlessly racialised and extended to the private sector. Skin colour became a statutory disqualification for Afrikaners entering the job market. You have never acknowledged this betrayal.

Property rights? The man who negotiated opposite you at the trout pool signed the 2025 Expropriation Act that allows seizure without compensation. Your response: silence. Understandably so, you have been an ANC member since 2006 and your In Transformation Initiative depends on his government’s contracts.

Language rights? Stellenbosch has been linguistically gutted. Pretoria is English in practice. The University of the Free State, where you studied in Afrikaans, no longer does so. Afrikaans schools survive only because communities built private alternatives after the state you helped create abandoned them.

The Bill of Rights? Over 140 race-based laws target a 7% minority. You know the number. You say nothing, because saying it would spoil the dinner parties in the Washington residence you are about to occupy.

Non-racialism? Julius Malema sings “Shoot the Boer, Kill the Farmer” to stadium crowds. ANC comrade Fikile Mbalula calls Afrikaners racists as a matter of routine. You raise no objection. You cannot, your career now depends on the party whose officials write those scripts.
The South Africa you built for us versus the one you secured for your own family is stark.

You are 78. You have six children. You collected cabinet posts under three presidents, the Order of the Baobab, the Golden Doves for Peace, a prestigious Ulster chair, decades of international consultancy fees, and now an ambassadorship with residence and allowances in Washington.

My family and friends inherited something very different: 39% unemployment, over 55% youth unemployment, collapsing electricity and water systems, a police service that does not respond to farm attacks, and an education system that bars them from state opportunities before they even graduate. Their family farms, worked for generations, now stand under the legal shadow of expropriation without compensation.

Your In Transformation Initiative partners with ANC veterans, including former MK operatives who once planted landmines on white farms. You export the “South African peacemaking model” (failed blueprint) while its failures land on our communities and its ANC dividends flow to yours.

This was never reconciliation. It was the selective distribution of peace: the negotiators got the peace; the people they signed over got the slow war.

In 2006, at age 59, you joined the ANC, the very party that had waged war on your people, imposed sanctions that ruined Afrikaner savings, bombed civilian bars, and ran torture camps. You did not drift into membership. You chose it. From that day your loyalty has been to the party that defeated your constituency and needed an Afrikaner face to launder its victory.

🚨Replacement Theology is UNBIBLICAL – The Church Has NOT Replaced Israel! 🔥🇮🇱

Replacement theology (also called supersessionism) is **unbiblical**. The Church has **not** replaced Israel.

God’s covenants with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are **everlasting**—land, seed, and blessing (Genesis 12:1-3; 15; 17; Psalm 105:8-11). He doesn’t break His word or swap out ethnic Israel for the Church because of unbelief. Romans 11 makes this crystal clear: Israel has been **temporarily hardened** and partially blinded, but “all Israel will be saved” (Romans 11:25-26). The natural branches (Israel) are not discarded forever—the Church (wild olive branches) is **grafted in** to share in the root, **not** to steal it.

Try this test: Go to Romans 9–11 and replace every mention of “Israel” with “the Church.” It collapses into nonsense. The New Testament uses “Israel” nearly 70 times—almost always referring to the ethnic/national people, **not** the Church. Nowhere does Scripture call the Church “Israel.” The Church is a **new creation** born at Pentecost (Ephesians 2; 1 Thessalonians 4), distinct from Israel, with its own heavenly hope. Israel’s future promises remain earthly and national: regathering to the land, national repentance, and the Messiah’s kingdom rule from Jerusalem.

Replacement theology arrogantly boasts against the Jews (exactly what Paul warned against in Romans 11:18-20), spiritualizes away literal prophecies, and ignores God’s faithfulness. The modern rebirth of Israel after 2,000 years of dispersion isn’t an accident—it’s prophetic. God is **not** done with the Jewish people.

The Church is the Bride of Christ, blessed through Abraham’s seed (Jesus), but we are **not** Israel. God keeps His promises to both—without contradiction.

“Has God cast away His people? Certainly not!” (Romans 11:1). Stand on the whole counsel of Scripture. Israel still has a future. The Church does too. Both point to the glory of the same faithful God. 🔥

Share if you reject this error and stand with biblical truth.
