What is the Relationship between Christians and Israel?

[Neutral Name]

i see a lot on the news about Christians being concerned about what goes on in Israel, like when the U.S. Embassy was moved to Jerusalem. I know that Jesus was Jewish but is there any other reason Christians are very interested in Israel?

It is the promised land where at the end of ages Mount Carmel will witness the Glory of God. Also much more Prophecy will unfold in the Holy Land.

Armageddon. Israel plays a role in their revenge fantasy when they get even with all the unbelievers who didn't think like they did.

Pretty much nothing, in real terms.

False. Christians who believe the biblical scriptures know that God has a special love and purpose for His chosen people Israel.

General Allenby, in a frist world war battle on the plains of Megiddo, saw that he fought that prophetic battle.

Israel is God's chosen nation for His purposes through history.

Israel



Indisputably, Israel is the major topic of biblical prophecy, just as it is of the daily news. The word "Israel" is found 2,565 times in 2,293 verses in the King James translation of the Bible, while "Jerusalem" is found 811 time in 764 verses....The conflict between tiny Israel and the vast coalition of Arab/Muslim nations arrayed against her is without question the most dangerous situation facing the world today. It is also the major subject of the Bible, in which are recorded in detail, two thousand to three thousand years before they occurred, the events leading to today's Middle East debacle.


Nine times God calls Himself the "God of Abraham...Isaac...and Jacob" From these patriarchs the Jews have descended. Yahweh, is called "the God of Israel" 203 times—and it is to Israel that He gave the Promised Land. —Dave Hunt in Judgment Day—Islam, Israel, and the Nations, TBC, 2006

Well Jesus walked that land and made it holy as many Prophets before Him also did.

I thank G_d that I have walked on some of that sacred ground and offered prayers a couple of times.

Why was it important to you? I notice that you are a believer in Bahá'í.

Bahai's have their HQ in Israel and are suspected of being agents of Mossad.

Odd ww2 Germany was filled with a lot of Nazi religious folk.

Really?! That's disgusting. How could they be religious and go along with killing Jews and others the Nazis killed?

I am not saying they are but historically they have let themselves be used by various governments like the Russians and the British if they had something to gain from it. There is a long history of brown-nosing just like the Evangelical Christians like to brown-nose Israel. Because they think it is to their advantage.

Christians have a long history of killing Jews way before Nazism existed
