Christians support Israel because our Messiah is Jewish emanating from the Tribe of Judah and our daily lives and our eternity are wholly in His hands. Elohim chose Israel, Judah, to enter the Realm of Time and Elohim poured His heart into Jacob’s children. Israel, Jerusalem, is the Center of the Earth and Elohim’s sovereign choice concerning His eschatological plan for Time and Eternity; therefore, what Elohim loves, Christians love; what Elohim supports, Christians support.
Islam’s history – the World’s destiny explained with succinctness…
Islam’s Allah is Satan masquerading as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god (2 Corinthians 11:14). Muhammad is a 7th-Century demon-possessed nomadic pedophile murdering thief who plagiarized the Torah to construct the Quran.
Muhammad is a product of the Ishmaelites, a virulent enemy of Israel, whose progenitor is Ishmael, a “wild ass” of a man born of adultery between Abraham and Hagar (Genesis 16:12). Ishmael via Hagar is NOT the son of promise but only Isaac is the child of promise through Sarah and Abraham through whom the promise of Messiah was given (Genesis 12:3b; Genesis 22:2).
Islam is a demonically rooted religious cult of death and Hell and its presence within the Realm of Time represents the spiritual wickedness of Satan and his fallen angels.
The spiritual struggle between Israel – Christianity and Islam is a physical manifestation of the spiritual war that rages in both the Spiritual Realm and the Physical Realm (Ephesians 6), a spiritual and physical conflict that will NOT be concluded until subsequent Messiah’s Millennial Reign where the entirety of Elohim’s enemies will be destroyed by fire and Satan, the Beast, the False Prophet, the fallen angels, interned in the spiritual Hell, forever (Revelation 20).
This present Earth, peace, a New Heaven and a New Earth, Judgment, the Lake of Fire…
There will be no peace upon the Earth until Messiah’s 2nd-Advent to the Mount of Olives manifesting toward the conclusion of the Tribulation Era – 3.5-years of nuclear horror that ravages all of humanity and every Nation and tongue. This 3.5-year Tribulation horror will culminate with Messiah’s victory over Russia-China-Iran/Islam and Messiah’s majestic entrance into the Temple Mount and the initiation of His Millennial Kingdom; this, accompanied by the simultaneous incarceration of Satan and the fallen angels who are bound for 1000-years within the Spiritual Realm having no influence upon human kind in the Physical Realm (Revelation 20). This Millennial era will be a time of peace and joy in the majesty of Jesus our King as Jesus will receive the Kingdom denied Him at His first Advent.
As a final example to the faithful angelic creation observing the horrors of sin and disobedience upon the Earth, Satan will be released and ravage-deceive the Nations once again who will rebel against Elohim, once again; but ultimately, the rebellious, demonically persuaded, of humanity will be annihilated by fire culminating in the Judgement of the Condemned (Revelation 20:10-15) where all of the unfaithful in humanity will be adjudicated “guilty” and suffer the “second death” and their resurrected mind, body, soul, will be completely annihilated in the “Lake of Fire;” a “Lake of Fire” that is the burning and purification of this Earth and the Heavens (2 Peter 3:10-14) as Elohim purifies the defilement of this Earth and forms a New Earth and a New Heaven and subsequently places His eternal Kingdom, “The New Jerusalem,” upon that New Earth and the resurrected righteous in Jesus will serve their resurrected Creator-Messiah, forever (Revelation 21-22; Philippians 3:21).
A wayward Jew asked: “…why are Christians so obsessed with bringing Jews to Christianity?”
Christian response,
Christians don’t want the Jew or Israelite to perish in Hell and Scripture tells us that an overwhelming number of Jacob’s children will die in unbelief having rejected their Messiah and consequently die in Hell (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27); therefore, the redeemed faithful in Messiah are obligated to the Great Commission; therefore, the Christian feels the need to tell the Jew and Israelite about Messiah Yeshua that they not perish in abject spiritual ignorance; therefore, plant the seed so-to-speak.
Jacob’s children are under Judgment relevant to the Jewish Curse in response to their forefather’s demands that Messiah’s blood, His murder at Golgotha advocated – initiated by Jacob’s children, be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25); therefore, Israel’s children are spiritually blind, spiritually deaf, their heart is hardened against the Truth, they are sheep being led to the slaughter by Satan; therefore, it is incumbent upon those who love Jesus Christ to tell and warn the Jew and Israelite of their precarious spiritual situation and plead with them to shake-off the bonds of spiritual lethargy and arrogance and repent of their sin, fully-sincerely believe and trust in Yeshua as Messiah and LIVE! Judaism-Torah are simply a roadmap and NOT the destination; Yeshua as Messiah by faith is the destination (Galatians 3:24-26).
Israel’s self-deception,
The obstinate religious Jew and Israelite will often cite Ezekiel 33:19 and/or Ezekiel 18:21-32 and incorrectly assume that they can repent, turn from their wicked ways, follow Yahweh’s statutes, and be saved through self-righteousness e.g. works of the Law; others, will also cite Romans 11:26 void context and incorrectly believe that “all of Israel will be saved” actually denotes the entirety of Jacob’s children will be saved from Hell due their genealogy or heritage; this too, is a lie from Hell as the Scripture is applicable to a besieged and proselytized remnant that endures the Tribulation Era, witnesses Messiah’s 2nd-Advent to Mt. Olivet and accompanies Messiah into His Millennial Kingdom; therefore, it is incumbent upon every faithful Christian to witness to the lost and Hell-bound Jew and Israelite concerning their need for Yeshua as Messiah by faith.
A Theological Error emanating from Judaism and other religions that do not impart life… “Law finds its genesis at Sinai with Moses via Torah” “Law finds its genesis with Allah through Muhammad via the Quran”
The Holy Spirit tells us that where there is no law there is no sin (Romans 4:15; 5:13); therefore, how was Satan judged, adjudicated, convicted of sin i.e. covetousness and extricated from the Kingdom for that sin if the law was initiated at Sinai?
How were the Adamic and Noahic generations judged of defilement worthy of death by water save eight if there was no law prior to Sinai?
How did Elohim differentiate the righteous by faith (Hebrews 11) and the wicked by disobedience (Romans 1:18-32) prior to Sinai lest a form of law existed to provide a differentiation between good and evil?
There is a theological error that abounds throughout Judaism and other religions that Sinai/Moses or Allah/Muhammad was the genesis of Law when Sinai is NOTHING NEW or novel but simply a fragmented codification of the moral aspects of the law of the Spirit (Romans 8:2; Romans 2:14-15) that has been relevant as an arbiter of free will subsequent the creation of the angels. Sinai, the Law of Moses, was given Israel for sanctification – eschatological purposes and its relevance is but a moment in Time when compared to the eternal spiritual law of the Spirit of life (Romans 8:2).
Islam’s Allah is Satan masquerading as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god (2 Corinthians 11:14) while Muhammad is a 7th-Century demon-possessed nomadic pedophile, murdering, thief, who plagiarized the Torah to construct the Quran.
Elohim (Genesis 1:1), the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, IS the origin of Law; this, before Time began.
“Christians, how do you explain the book of Jonah and the people of Nineveh (gentiles) repenting and being saved prior to Jesus?”
Christian response,
From Adam forward, humanity was provided covenant righteousness with Elohim by faith-trust in Elohim as the One true Deity, our Creator and Sustainer; this same truism was relevant for those in Nineveh.
Messiah’s presence in Time and His work at Golgotha simply paves the path to life in Eternity in response to the prerequisite of Leviticus 17:11 which was first pictured for humanity in Genesis 3:21; that is, the shedding of innocent blood as atonement for sin. It is “faith” in Jesus as Messiah that initiates a covenant of righteousness with the Father and it is the blood of Jesus that permits entry into the Kingdom via satisfactory atonement as mandated by the Father (1 Peter 1:18-19).
Though men and women in the Old Testament found righteousness with Elohim via “faith” (Hebrews 11), their sin required atonement before entering the Kingdom, a Kingdom where “nothing impure is permitted to enter therein” (Revelation 21:27); therefore, the Old Testament saints were interned in Sheol/paradise (Hades in the Greek) awaiting Messiah’s work at Golgotha.
Subsequent Messiah’s atoning sacrifice, those who die in body having expressed faith in Messiah Jesus are now immediately translated into the presence of Elohim in a disembodied spiritual state awaiting the resurrection as modeled by Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 3:21). The imperishable resurrected body will be the eternal life form for all of redeemed humanity throughout Eternity.
Finally, it’s important to note that the people of Nineveh repented of their sin in response to Jonah’s preaching and sought righteousness through faith exhibited, validated, by their righteous efforts to eschew evil; unfortunately, much like the people of Israel, the Ninevites did not hold fast to their covenant of repentance and obedience but once again fell prey to defilement and were subsequently judged harshly for their unfaithfulness.
