Christians: Want Your Jerusalem? Better Support Israel!

Published on February 2, 2010 By Leauki In War on Terror

Member of Knesset Ayoub Kara said on Monday that he got the feeling from his meeting with Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican last week that the Catholic Church was behind the pontiff on behalf of the Jewish people. Speaking on Arutz Sheva's Hebrew journal, the deputy minister for development of the Negev and the Galilee said that the pope's speech on International Holocaust Day showed that he knew what happened in the concentration camps.

Kara said that after his meeting with the pope, he had an argument with the Church's representative on the Middle East, who said internationalization of Jerusalem was the optimal solution to the Arab-Israeli struggle over the capital. Kara responded by saying that if there was no Israel, there would be no churches in the Middle East, noting how the Christians of Bethlehem and Nazareth are being treated by their Muslim neighbors. He added that the interest of the Church should be Israeli control, and felt that some of what he said was accepted by the cardinal.

You know I do. Besides all that Leauki. God has a plan and it's being worked out right before our very eyes. Just sit back and watch. It will happen. Just like he said it would.

I know you do and I know G-d has a plan.

But isn't it interesting than an Arab MK in Israel, who is neither Jewish nor Christian (Ayoub Kara is a Druze) points out a simple reality that in itself has nothing to do with religion?

there are alot of underground churches all thru the Middle East. While he may be right about a visible government type church there is NO stopping God's work from being done. Church buildings are not needed for that.

You still want church buildings to be around and Christians living in those cities, don't you?

Bethlehem used to be a Christian city (and it should be, given what the city means to Christians). Today it is a Muslim city.

....Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Luke 21:24b.

The period of Gentile domination of Jerusalem which began probably since Babylonian days still contiinues. I believe we are fast coming up on the end of these days so we are nearing this time of fulfillment. Doesn't matter if it's Muslim controlled or Christian controlled really. The real genuine Christians will still be in those cities regardless.
