Amen! Agreed, agreed, agreed! We will worship and war in prayer for Israel. We are commanded to pray for Israel’s peace. God be with the worship event tonight and may He give breakthrough for Israel and those who hurt over the atrocities! Thank you, Jesus for Sean’s courage and faithfulness to lead worship events no matter what!

I stand on the Word that those who cheer over the bloodshed of Israeli people will be destroyed. God said it, I believe it. Watch out. Angel armies are backing up King Jesus and if one doesn’t turn from the thrill of innocent lives being killed, you will be silenced and your ways of defiling God “will be brought down upon your heads”, says the Lord God in Ezekiel 22:31.

Stop with the demonizing of party lines and glorifying the killing of Palestinians. You seem to think that money is what you need in a time like this? You are delusional.

It's absolutely right to support those that have lost loved ones, pray y hostages and condemn terrorism.

It's not right to give a blank cheque to those powerful few that have wanted an excuse to eradicate their neighbors for profit.

Conflating a modern state founded by violence, atheism and persecution that drove 100,000s of Jews out of Europe and the Soviet Union into an already inhabitanted (by Jews, Arabs and Christians) Holy Land, with Biblical Israelites is extremely dangerous and divisive for all God's children.

"As it pertains to human knowledge, human understanding, or human works, the Jews of Paul’s day would be in a position of entire advantage. Yet the majority of Jews, as Paul laments in Romans, did not obey the gospel. Why? Moreover, what does it mean that Paul cites Scripture against the Jews calling them “disobedient” and “gainsaying”? In this sermon on Romans 10:18–21 titled “Tragedy of the Jews,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones grounds the tragedy of the Jews in God’s sovereign election and their prejudice against the Lord Jesus Christ. Salvation belongs to the Lord, as Dr. Lloyd-Jones reminds the listener. The way of salvation from old covenant to the new covenant is determined by the sovereign grace of God. The “whosoever” of salvation is tied to “whosoever” as God determines, whether that is predominantly Jews or predominantly Gentiles. But Dr. Lloyd-Jones leaves room for human responsibility as well. Many of the Jews in the first century were simply set against the gospel. Jesus experienced this in His earthly ministry with the Pharisees as did Paul in his ministry. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones tackles the topic of divine sovereignty and human responsibility and as Paul explained the tragedy of the Jews, Dr. Lloyd-Jones calls the church to self-examination and praise in the sovereign election of God."

Romans 10:18-21

"But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for “Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.” But I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says, “I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry.” Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, “I have been found by those who did not seek me; I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.” But of Israel he says, “All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.” "

I recently finished William L Shirer’s book THE RISE AND FALL OF THE THIRD REICH (A History of Nazi Germany). Hitler was a son of Satan if there ever was one. And, Satan is the ruler of this world. Jesus Christ tells his followers that the world will hate them and that it hated him first. So, it should not come as a surprise that non-Christians hate the Jews. They are just in lockstep with their king. I
