Pat Robertson: Sharon Punished for Dividing Israel
JTA ^ | 1/5/06

Posted on 01/05/2006 10:59:44 AM PST by areafiftyone

The Rev. Pat Robertson said Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is being punished by God for dividing the Land of Israel. Robertson, speaking on the “700 Club” on Thursday, suggested Sharon, who is currently in an induced coma, and former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, assassinated by an Israeli extremist in 1995, were being treated with enmity by God for dividing Israel. “He was dividing God’s land,” Robertson said. “And I would say, Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the E.U., the United Nations or the United States of America. God says, This land belongs to me. You better leave it alone.”

Then why didn't God strike down Menachem Begin when he gave conquered land back to Egypt, or Netanyahu when he gave over part of Hebron to the Arabs? Why didn't He strike down Moshe Dayan for giving over the Temple Mount to the Arabs in 1967? We don't really know what God is specifically doing or not doing in these situations, and neither does Crazy Pat.

2007 will be the fortieth years since Moshe Dyan gave back the Temple Mount to haSatan.

Some think that Israel has been in a 40 year wilderness because of it.

Since it's only 2006 now, that would make it a 39 year wilderness.

Gods word is unchanging.............this might seem like a problem but if you think about it............well its a good thing.

God's word may be unchanging, but not much else is. At any rate, the notion that the modern, secular nation called "Israel" has anything to do with the Chosen People of the Old Testament is quite a stretch.

The Jews are still God's chosen people and always will be. Bible prophecy describes some terrible times ahead for Israel, and the Lord will have to physically save the Israelis from complete destruction in the end. I believe that the last "Joshua" is going to be Jesus Himself.

What a madman the senile old preacher Robertson is!

What is he going to say when God finally strikes him with a stroke, heart attack, or cancer?

"This thread is filled with Biblically illiterate people,
who are cursing the darkness instead of seeking the light"


Why seek the light when the Lord lives in darkness?

""Then spake Solomon, the Lord said that he would dwell in the thick darkness." (I Kings 8:12. Repeated in II Chronicles 6:1) "And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies." (II Samuel 22:12) "He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies." (Psalm 18:11) "The Lord reigneth; let the earth rejoice . . . clouds and darkness are round about him." (Psalm 97:1-2)

"The bible does say that The Lord, God of Abraham, God of Israel will strike down anyone who lays a hand against Israel."


Unless the enemy uses 'chariots of iron'. Seems God has difficulty defeating foes who use those:

""And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron." (Judges 1:19)

"Does the Bible support his argument? I haven't seen a refutation of what he's saying. Just a bunch of whining from "offended" freepers."

No the Bible does not say anything about Sharon being punished or that Sharon divided Israel. Israel, the Northern Kingdom, Ten Tribes, or those called the lost sheep of the house of Israel have not been in or around that piece of real estate as management since they were sent into captivity to that Assyrian king.

But of course Pat Robertson is not the first to claim something not Written, nor will he be the last according to what is Written.

"God warned against ANYONE dividing up HIS land."


God can keep that arid hellhole. I'd think God would prefer a place like Hawaii or Costa Rica over an ugly desert. Zero offense to you but is not the entire planet "HIS land"?
