Some things seem almost too absurd to be true. But life is filled with absurdities when it comes to Israel. Do you see the ladder in the photo below? It has leaned against the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem for at least 150 years...
Among the many things God cares about, three stand out: Israel, Jerusalem, and the Temple. During my Hebrew-school days, I learned about these things in multiple ways. From the Jewish Scriptures, I learned God set Jerusalem in the midst of the...
The prophet Ezekiel burst onto the scene during Jerusalem’s darkest days at the end of the sixth century BC. Then, as now, the Middle East was in crisis. In fact, the Middle East had been in crisis for most of the eighth and seventh centuries BC due to the...
When God confirmed a covenant with Abraham (Gen. 12:1), He issued a divine proclamation: He vowed to give all the land He was promising Abraham to both Abraham and his descendants forever (13:15). God bequeathed the land through...
Leon Uris’s novel Exodus, about the founding of the State of Israel, captivated the world when it came out in 1958. It became an international sensation, rising quickly to number one on The New York Times best-seller list and staying there for eight months...
Today much of the world despises Israel. All it takes to substantiate this truth is a look at the UN’s overwhelming number of anti-Israel resolutions, the countries that have waged war against Israel in hopes of annihilating it, and the news media’s endless caricature of...
What further proof do we need. The bible was written & established as the Word of God, long long
before Mohammadism came into being. The very rocks that are part of the current wailing wall
are from the temple area. Jesus said, if you silence the children’s voice, “the rocks will cry out”, and that is precisely what is happening. With all the archaeological excavations, the stones tell the
story of the temple, and all that took place there. Thank you Steve for making the point…all of
the UN participants should have that as required reading. Blessings & Shalom, Henry Hooge.
Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord..
Blessed be Jerusalem and her King ..
All glory to God forever and ever!
Thanks, Steve. Great article. None of us must ever forget Jerusalem.
There is truth!
Jesus predicted the destruction of the temple. God is sovereign, and no matter what people believe as to whether or not there was a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, God and His plan will play out in the end. The focus should be on praying and sharing the Gospel with the Jewish people. God has a Jewish remnant who come and will come to believe, and they will be grafted back into the tree.
Beautiful! Very well written and the eternal truth!
