Israel

Israel
In Genesis 12:1-3 it says "1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." We see from this passage of scripture that God's blessing or curse can come on a nation depending on it treats Israel. In II Chronicles 6:6 it says "6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel." We see Jerusalem is where God put His name. In Psalm 122:1-6 it says "1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. 2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together: 4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD. 5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee." THIS IS HOW AND WHY I FEEL THE WAY I DO ABOUT ISRAEL AND THE JEWS.
