God's will concerning the Palestinians

[lforrest]

While there is a double standard I will not judge the current leadership of Israel for any response to unprovoked attacks by Islamic militants.

God knows what sinful man will do. It's not a question of His foreknowledge, it's a BIBLICAL, MORAL question I raise. Since Jesus Christ does not teach murder is a good thing under any circumstance ( and like I already said civilians are INNOCENT), that nation in no way is blessed by God. In fact the opposite is true.

The only ones that bless Israel are those who do not follow the teachings of the Bible. Blinded and deceived by a false doctrine.

We can pray for God to bless Israel, even when Israel commits sins. We pray all Israel will accept Jesus as their Messiah.

We can also pray for the people of Gaza, who have historically been Philistines who opposed Israel and the one true God of Israel. We can pray that they come to salvation through the cross of Christ.

We can pray for peaceful relations between Gaza and Israel.


Psalm 128:5

The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

Psalm 129:5

Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

Psalm 132:13

For the Lord hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

Isaiah 2:3

And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Isaiah 12:6

Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.

One Jewish couple was tortured for hours, then their baby burned to death before them in the oven before Hamas killed the couple. This video was found on a camera because Hamas was filming the tortures, kidnappings and hostages.

Though the conflict in Gaza in horrible and any war is a bad war. I dislike the hypocracy of people (activists) always fixating on Isreal. In this case the Isreal Palestinian conflict.

Whereas there are many, many conflicts happening that are just as bad if not much worse that everyone ignores.What happened to the protests for all these other inhumane acts.

I believe there is something else going on when it comes to Isreal. They are judged more severely or focused on more than any other people. Ironically if there was a people that deserved support it would be the Isrealis and Jews as they have been persecuted for millenia. Losing their land several times. No one ever mentions that.

But the extra hate for Isreal seems beyond what is just and more a deep seated spiritual hate. If the bible is correct then the nations surrounding Isreal were the ancient tribes and peoples like the Canaanites who hated the Jews. It does seems like its very tribal. In fact the whole world gone tribal.

Having said that, Does Israel have God's blessing for murdering over 20,000 Palestinian children since October 7th, 2023?

And you know those numbers are accurate. How? You don't. There's been zero outside independent verification. Those numbers come from the Gaza Health Ministry, which is controlled by Hamas, and are parroted by the UN, which as always has had a bias against Israel. There's also no distinction between civilizations and combatants. Just because someone is under the age of 18 doesn't mean they can't be a combatant. Hamas has been known to recruit minors.

Hamas has a reason to inflate those numbers. They also have a reason to actually want civilian deaths. Ask yourself this simple question: Why would they attack Israel on October 7th, 2023, when they knew full well what Israel's response would be? The answer is, they want civilian deaths. You see, Israel's enemies know they can never defeat Israel militarily, but they can defeat Israel in a propaganda war. This is what this has been all about, and they know Westerns like yourself will eat it up.

@Luther7 Also Hamas uses civilians including children as human shields. Hamas hides under places like hospitals, etc.

And Palestinian mothers said they want their children to become martyrs.

Israel dropped leaflets, sent phone calls, texts, in order to warn the civilian population to leave the areas before an attack.

Also Hamas controlled all of the journalism (mostly their own journalists/photographers). Everything had to be run by Hamas before publishing.
