There’s a reason the Book of Romans is my favorite book in the Bible.
The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 11:26: “And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.”
Israel’s story is not finished. The nation that the world wants to erase, God has declared will be redeemed. You cannot have a redemption without a remnant. You cannot have a return without a people to return to. The very existence of Israel today, the most resilient nation is God keeping His word.
Zechariah 14 is unmistakable. “His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which lies to the east of Jerusalem.” Not a metaphor. The same Mount of Olives where He ascended in Acts 1, where the angels declared He would return in the same manner. He is coming back, and He is coming back there.
Jerusalem is not incidental to eschatology. Jerusalem is the epicenter of it. The King of Kings will reign from that city. The nations will come up to worship in that place. This is why the enemy has always wanted to erase it, why the world’s hatred for one small nation is so disproportionate to her size because Hell understands what is at stake even when the Church forgets.
Israel, like every nation, is made up of broken human beings in need of a Savior. But the promises of God do not rest on Israel’s perfection. They rest on God’s character. “The gifts and calling of God are irrevocable,” Paul wrote in Romans 11:29.
If God could break His covenant with Israel, He could break His covenant with me. But He cannot. He will not. And so Israel endures as a sign, as a witness, as a living testimony that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the same yesterday, today, and forever and His word will stand forever.
And that gives me great peace. No matter what’s happening in the world.
So when I defend Israel, I don’t defend every action of every government. They have a left too, one I disagree with daily.
I defend Israel because I defend the Word of God. And I defend the Word of God because Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and His Word is always true. Every single word. Not just the one’s people want to focus on.
I don’t know what happens in the end. I don’t know who is saved or why. And I don’t care. I know the same Jesus who died for my sins made promises to that nation and He will keep every last one of them.
That’s Tennessee and Indiana now who have officially declared June as nuclear family month. If you’re a red state governor and you’re not doing this, why not? Do it now. It is time to go on offense.
@conservmillen Wow… first Hillary Clinton, now Krazy Kandace? I think you should frame these callouts! Thank you for your boldness and clarity as always @conservmillen
@conservmillen Thanks for such a fair and enlightening conversation on a very important theological topic. I really like Jacob and thought that it was a very good debate. As a Christian, I may vote with my LDS friends but not share their faith.
“The insurance companies left because the insurance companies can’t be forced into bankruptcy by the state. They told the state. It wasn’t global warming. Stop believing that. It was a failed environmental policy that doesn’t allow fire departments to prevent defensible space around our homes. Or clear out the brush….we are going to DEREGULATE.”
Are you listening democrats…. You literally destroyed the Pacific Palisades with your insane policies.
How anyone could ever vote Democrat again after just that is beyond me!!!!
This was a great answer by @ChadBianco
@Meldougherty77 Great take on this - New Age is definitely at the root, and I’ve seen it in my own sphere with young or “seeker” Christians who have gotten sucked into conspiracy theories… (2Tim: 3-4)
God has already determined that nations will be judged based on how they treat Israel. As the world moves closer to the Tribulation, hostility toward the Jewish people will intensify, and the removal of the restrainer will unleash unprecedented evil.
