The Jews have been hated for being poor and for being wealthy; for being weak and for being powerful; for being too separate and for being too assimilated; for being religious and for being secular; for being stateless and now for having a state.
At some point, honest people must recognize that these contradictions expose something deeper than politics, economics, or sociology. The accusations change, but the hostility remains. The reasons are endlessly recycled because "the reasons" were never the real issue.
The Bible teaches that our struggle is not merely against flesh and blood, but against spiritual powers and principalities. Throughout history, there has been a relentless hatred directed toward the people through whom God chose to reveal Himself, give the Scriptures, bring forth the Messiah, and through whom He has promised yet to fulfill His covenant purposes.
Better to recognize this before Yeshua, the King and Messiah of Israel, judges the whole earth.
For years, many of those watching biblical prophecy have asked the question:
How will America eventually abandon Israel?
The assumption has often been that it would happen under a hostile administration from the Left. But what if the process is also beginning from the Right?
Last night, JD Vance said something very important:
"There are cases where the interests of Israel and the U.S. diverge... We can achieve a long-term agreement with Iran. Israel may not like it."
Think about that for a moment. Donald Trump is widely regarded as the most pro-Israel president in American history. Yet even under Trump, the driving goal appears to be securing a deal with Iranโsomething that would be celebrated as a major foreign policy achievement for Trump regardless of Israel's security concerns. At the same time, a growing isolationist and increasingly anti-Israel (Groyper) faction within the Republican Party is growing and gaining influence. Whether America First or Groypers, their message is the same: Israel's interests are not America's interests. That sentiment is no longer confined to the fringe.
This is precisely why Israel can never base its survival on the assumption of permanent American support. Israel lives in a neighborhood where mistakes are measured in lives, not polling numbers.
Israel must face the fact that it must be able to stand alone.
The writing is on the wall. Biblical prophecy is unfolding right in front of our eyes.
@suzycatlamb Beautiful. May The Holy Spirit guide you all through this difficult time.
To God be all glory and honor for the restoration of your family ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
