That's "capital".
"The survey, which was conducted by McLaughlin and Associates by a telephone sampling of 1,000 American Christians last month, had a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points."
I’d love to see how the questions were phrased since:
"The non-profit organization [that sponsored the survey] aims to raise more than $100 million over the next three years to help Israeli victims of terrorism, and to fund humanitarian projects in Israel in education, health, welfare and immigrant absorption, and $20m. for Christians in the West Bank, Gaza, Iraq and Sudan, said Joel C. Rosenberg, the group's founder and president."
Follow the money.
Not all of Israel is “Israel”, i.e. God’s elect. Today, God’s people, i.e. the “elect” are Jews and Gentiles who have trusted in Jesus Christ for their salvation. Unbelieving Jews are as hell-bound as their Gentile counterparts.
“Since its Biblical that God blesses those whom bless Israel maybe you, as an american citizen, shouldn’t be so quick to threaten.”
It’s biblical to bless whom? Christ or the present secular state of Israel?
Galatians 3:16: The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,” meaning one person, who is Christ.
Galatians 3:29: If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Quotations from NT writings don’t do much for me. But thanx.
Thank you God. You would mind giving me a few more years on earth first, would ya?
