This thread is for the discussion of God’s chosen people, the Jews, and our Biblical mandate to bless them and help them in their struggle to retain their promised land, Israel.
Tens of thousands of churches have a committed belief in the importance of standing with Israel and blessing the Jewish people. The verse most often referred to as their biblical mandate is Genesis 12:3 in which God tells Abraham “I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you and in you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”
Since the birth of the State of Israel in 1948 the theological error known as Replacement Theology has begun to decline and increasing is a theology of Christian Zionism that understands the importance of God’s everlasting covenant with Abraham and the nation he would birth.
However, just as the term “Zionism” has been turned into a negative word by Israel’s enemies, so “Christian Zionism” is under attack and often misrepresented in the media and in some public discourse. For this reason, placing our “love for Israel” within its proper biblical context is proving invaluable.
“I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” - Genesis 12:1-3
For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch. - Isaiah 62:1
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they that love thee shall prosper. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will say now, peace be within thee. For the sake of the House of the Lord our God I will seek thy good. – Psalm 122
“I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves no rest, and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.” – Isaiah 62:6-7
They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings. - Romans 15:27 (NIV)

“Indeed He says, ‘It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also give You as a light to the Gentiles, that You should be My salvation to the ends of the earth.’” Isaiah 49:6
This touches on God’s promise to Israel. Many today allude to it in reference to modern Israel’s many amazing medical and technological advances. Yet the focus of the passage is on God’s “salvation”.
In context, the passage speaks of a Servant of the Lord whose task would be to not only restore the descendants of Jacob, the Jewish people, but also to embrace a broader mission among the Gentiles by taking God’s salvation to the ends of the earth. So Isaiah is speaking about a person of “light” – undoubtedly the promised Messiah – who is a restorer of Israel, rather than about the nation of Israel itself.
This is how the passage is treated in the New Testament. In Luke 2:32, it is used to refer to Jesus at his birth, describing his dual role as “a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel”. In Acts 13:47, the Apostle Paul cites the same verse to validate his resolve to take the Gospel to the nations. Then in Acts 26:23, Paul again refers to Jesus as that favoured son of Israel who was sent to “proclaim light to the Jewish people”.
Yet that is not the end of the story. Jesus did not just arrive out of nowhere, but came according to the promises which God made to the “fathers”, meaning the Hebrew patriarchs (Romans 9:4-5, 11:28, 15:8; Galatians 3). He indeed was the “Light of the world” (John 8:12), but he arose out of the light of Messianic hope already given to Israel. Even Jesus himself said: “Salvation is of the Jews.” That is, the very concept of world redemption came through Israel.

Fuck off kike. >16Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. ... >6Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: 7Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. 8That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. ... >14For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: 15Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: 16Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. ... >14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
>16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
>17Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
>18And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Aahkenazis arent semites, you satanic apostate kike. Semites are the sons of Shem(Shemites). Noah had 3 sons, Shem, Ham, and Japeth. Japeth had a grandson named Ashkenaz who is the father of the fake Jew Ashkenazi Europeans who practice the satanic religion of Babylonian Talmudism.
You can follow the sons of the devil and the Synagogue of Satan straight to Hell, you apostate filth.

Totally wrong. The Jews are God's people. Drop your Satanic heresy and get right with God! See pic related
Brody Perry
This is very ironic, right? Because even if Christ-killing synagogue of Satan were God's chosen at some point, they are no longer. Not to mention that modern kikes are Khazar mongrels and not Israelites and therefore have less claim for the land of Israel that Palestinians who at least have some blood of original jews.

>The Jews are God's people. Learn to read, kike. >14For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: 15Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: 16Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
Jerusalem is made desolate halfway through tribulation, and God pours his wear out upon the fake unbelieving Jews at the 7th trumpet.

Zionist are anti-American and should be stabbed with bullets.
I don't know if you're sincere or not, but I'll go ahead and refute you anyway. When God interacts with His creation, He does so by way of covenant. Now, there are two covenants, a covenant of works and a covenant of grace. The former is founded on personal perfect righteousness and the latter on vicarious perfect righteousness. Because all sinned, all have broken their covenant with God which was made with their father Adam. For such reason, God became man, and perfectly kept the law, that those who draw near to God through Him might be saved. By reason of the imputation of His righteousness and their union with His death they are dead to the law (Rom 7:1-6) and no longer relate to God as judge but as father. They cannot be condemned because Christ received their merited punishment. For this reason they have a clean slate and covenant to God by grace rather than works. Therefore, seeing as all men have only been saved in such fashion, who can deny that God's covenant with Abraham was the selfsame covenant of grace? This is why Paul attributes Abraham's covenant to us (Rom 4:13-25, Gal 3:15-18).
