“God did give Israel to the Jews.”

Yes He did and every time the Jews misbehaved what did God do?

God took the land away from them and they did not get it back until they started following Him again.

The last time they lost the land what did they do? tell me what did they do? Oh wait they killed his only Begotten Son. So what did God do? Yep just as Jesus said the nothing remains of the temple and the jews were scattered.

Now do they want that land back? really want it back? They have to accept Jesus.

They have stolen the land. This is not of God. This is of their father the devil. Do you think for one moment God would give them the land for abortion, idolatry and homosexuality? If you do you really don’t know the God of the jews very well. How much longer do you think God will tolerate that? He did not tolerate it long in the Bible.

Stop saying this is “their land” this land is now of Jesus and his followers. Jesus, as in King of the Jews and now us too.

I’m prayerfully considering the situation, as I said.

Jesus hasn’t returned yet, and we also don’t yet have a new heavens and a new earth. Christians await them without having a spiritual “home land” on this earth. We are “strangers and pilgrims” here while awaiting a better country (Hebrews 11:13-16).

“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.” Philippians 3:20

Jesus taught us to seek spiritual, Heavenly riches and not be possessive - - while being fishers of men. Paul wrote we should be content with having food and clothing.

Paul also wrote that, in essence, Christians shouldn’t boast themselves against the Jews, as though we’re worthier. And they are enemies of the Gospel for the sake of the Gentile believers, but beloved for the sake of their election.

Overall, you’ve severely distorted God’s Word. The sin of all mankind, going back to Adam and Eve, and including my sin and yours, is what put the Son of God on the cross. And that is how He paid any particular person’s sin debt. He took on our guilt, dying for it in our place.

Whats more, among Christians, the wheat and the tares are growing together until Jesus separates them at His return. The Lord is merciful to give people time to repent. So sin hasn’t been put away among Christians. Ephesians 5 speaks of how we are to put away all uncleanness, not just certain “big” sins.

No answer?

Remember, Jesus said judge not lest ye be judged. We are also, as Christians, to imitate God’s parental concern for others, despite whatever we do or don’t think of them, and do or don’t feel towards them. We are also not to “lean on our own understanding,” (Proverbs 3).

With the divide that still exists between most Jews and Christians become clearer in recent years, I started to feel troubled by it sometimes.

But what I want most of all is to please the Lord, and while being always as much as I can on His “right side.”

And He helped me get perspective, and reminded me of what’s important and that I don’t understand or know all. He counseled me to say, “I pray for the Jewish people,” to stay dependent on Him and keep coming to Him for guidance, and let Him be God.
