Worldly cares is about acquisition. You are turning it around to mean the world itself, as a planet, and all the people in it. John 3:16 tells us God Himself loved the world, so you are following an ant-Christian cult that just pretends to be Christina in name only, to support an Israel in name only to acquire a big chunk of land at the expense and lives of its rightful inhabitants.
If you do in fact believe in the Christ then stop letting the cares of this world entangle you in emotional abuse of your brother's Israel and me.
Your own words show that you do not follow your own advice, by your support of one ethnic group over another. If God or Jesus already hypothetically owns the land already why does there need to be a military force to physically take it?
This argument is of no consequence to brothers in Christ because again I say, only God owns the land and there is no such thing as jew, greek, gentile, or even arab anymore so far as Christ is concerned so stop with this nonsense already if you be true in saying that you believe in your heart that Christ is risen and is our savior.
They are not Israel, they are a group of Jews who decided to call themselves Israel. On top of that, the dominant group that run the so-called state, are German Jews, descended from Central Asians who adopted the religion of the Jews during the Persian Empire, and later, all the way up to the Muslim times. They want a national identity and took a cue from their holy book of where they think they should be to be their own people. That does not make them somehow automatically right.
I'm rationalizing the right of Israel to live on the land of their forefathers and that's it.
Jerusalem is a holy city which was a center for Islam, and it is obviously not just a "piece of dirt" so you are being deliberately dishonest.
The arabs have plenty of dirt to live on and be happy with and at peace but this war isn't about land ownership between the two but about whose god is bigger. That's all.
This is not a Christian belief, but a modern doctrine made up by your cult. The Jews have a book that says this stuff but Christianity tells us the Jews were cut off from the blessings of God. Christian doctrine, and the very foundation of Christianity is the Church which is not a building but means the congregation, like the congregation of the Israelites in the camp in the wilderness. Jesus created the congregation to replace that old one, by establishing himself as the head of this reconstituted Israel. First for the Jews, then for the gentiles, just as the old Israel was the descendants of Jacob, and then the Egyptians who joined them to cross the Red Sea. We symbolically join Jesus by crossing over through the ritual of baptism, into the new Israel, the church.
The land according to God through Abraham belongs to the descendants of AIJ not the Islamic Arabic Palestine.

By complicity to a crime, and aiding abetting, you transfer the guilt onto yourself, of murder and theft.
You make me out to be a murdering unbeliever because I support Zionism and not Islam. That means you would have me join your cult instead of blessing Israel. Get over yourself.
You further delude yourself into believing that you have to fight Islam, while ignoring the Christian Palestinians.
It is not about a war of ideologies, it is ordinary crimes and real people who are the victims. You are rationalizing criminality which may work in your own mind but will not work when you are called up to judgment before God.
You also delude yourself into thinking anyone not in your cult can only be so by following Satan into joining some other opposing cult.
That is just a tool of the cult to induce paranoia into its members.
People only giving themselves the name does not make them Israel in the sight of God. This is a work planned, inaugurated, and carried out by men, men who were functioning atheists who decided the best way to take over the world for Communism, was through the Jews, and to have them set up a Jewish state in order to use as a base to carry it out.edit on 18-4-2012 by jmdewey60 because: (no reason given)
Creating a hypothetical scenario of violence does not justify the real violence going on against the people who live there and are being driven off incrementally, every day.
If Palestine wants to claim it for their own and wage Jihad then the bloodshed of both sides are on their own heads.
Again, you are creating a hypothetical, potential injustice to rationalize a real injustice going on right now, and continuously every minute of every day.
IMO the criminality in this case lies with those who would usurp authority over the people Israel in an effort to promote their own deity over that of the God of AIJ, the One True and Living God, the Father of us all and Jesus Christ.

It is being forced into that state by none other than Israel itself.
The world is in fact coming to a boiling point. It doesn't take religiosity or cults or anything of the like to see what is happening on the world political stage.
Apparently you are calling the Old Testament "the Word". The Word is the message that God has given to the inhabitants of Earth, which we know from Jesus through his Apostles, not from the Old Testament, which Jesus saw as something the Jews of his time should have been able to through its prophecies know that he was of God and that they should heed his voice. Jesus never preached a message about ownership of land outside of the concept of the meek inheriting the earth. Jesus taught against those who would take the kingdom by force.
According to the Word and the lineage of Jesus all the way to Abraham, and according to the Father's promise to Isaac, the rightful inhabitants are not the Palestinians. And you are wrong about that better opinion statement. Islam feels about Israel the way it feels because of religiosity, not land. You're being willfully ignorant if you deny such a thing.
You are because built into your cult's dogma is this theory that before Jesus can return, there has to be a rebuilt temple on Mt. Zion, so you benefit by being raptured before you meet a natural death by old age.
I'm not sure how it seems that I'm saying that because I don't profit from war.
Your plan for peace is for everyone in Jordan, Palestine, and Lebanon and Syria, to just pack up and leave so prophecy can be fulfilled, where Abraham's descendants will dwell on the land from the Nile to the Euphrates. Your plan would actually reverse the prophecy since the descendants of Abraham already live there but will be replaced by Gog and Magog, the Germans and the Russians.
I've often said I want peace while you claim the need for Israel to be stricken from the land that is their inheritance but often times I see you being confused because of what you infer and not what is actually written so i guess just be confused.
Being a real Christian, and not just a member of a cult calling itself Christian, I do not have any hate. Anger is directed to the perpetrators of actual physical crimes against humanity, such as the constant genocide and ethnic cleaning being carried out by the thuggocracy pretending to be a state and calling itself, Israel. I feel an obligation to my fellow man to call for justice to be done on their behalf. People like yourself who make excuses for it lower the morality of the world, and fight against God's will to save the world, and why He sent His son into the world.
You matter to me and the hatred and anger you harbor matters to me because as my brother in Christ I don't like that your heart is so burdened to the point it is.
According to your cult's ideology.
I'm just warning you about what the Father is bringing.
I don't have to since I do not engage in any of those activities. I don't wish the fires from heaven to burn people up. What I do is warn people there is a judgment and you will be held accountable for your actual physical actions. I don't curse people because they do not believe along a narrowly defined belief system which I just so happen to have myself. The only people I see doing that are the cult members, whether yours, or of some Islamic types.
Look in the mirror and say that
I would rather follow my own interpretation, trusting in the Spirit, rather than follow a cult's who are feeding on war and death for their own gain.
Again I say, read scripture and believe God or make him to be a liar and serve the God of your emotion whom you've created to serve yourself and personal feelings.

People who have the Christ spirit in them are not obsessed with acquisition even by murder to get material goods.
They are not Israel, they are a group of Jews who decided to call themselves Israel.
On top of that, the dominant group that run the so-called state, are German Jews, descended from Central Asians who adopted the religion of the Jews during the Persian Empire, and later, all the way up to the Muslim times.

This is not a Christian belief, but a modern doctrine made up by your cult.
Biblical doctrine teaches there is no such thing as jew because the holy spirit makes us all adopted sons of God. The blood hebrew still has his time and place but even still scripture says that those who call themselves jews aren't necessarily so because now that the Holy Spirit is here, a spiritual jew is a real jew meaning the people of God are now so because of the Holy Spirit not because "my father is Abraham" like Jesus said to the pharisees.
The Jews have a book that says this stuff but Christianity tells us the Jews were cut off from the blessings of God.
The Jews could avoid injury by not invading someone else's land. If I have someone breaking into my house to rob me, it is my right to fight that person off, and it is not a crime by me if he gets injured instead of his intended target, who would be myself.
As a believer in Christ you also know that if you offend in one part of the law then you are guilty of it all. The other side of this coins shows you supporting Palestine's murder of the Jews in order to take land that belongs to the descendants of AIJ. For the measure whereby ye judge ye shall be judge. You seem to have a very legalistic view to be under grace in your heart. It's kinda weird and very telling if you ask me.
This is only based on wishful thinking on your part and not reality. The Palestinian Christians have no love for Israel, and you still don't get it that it is only your own little cult which believes that the Jews are somehow the rightful owners of Palestine. Israel does not tolerate Christianity in its midst.
Bible believing Christian Palestinians don't give a hoot if, like I said, they are bible believing.

You are making people as the enforcers of God, and religion as a bases for justifying criminal behavior.
Israel is not a real legitimate state.
This was land stolen first from the Turkish Empire by GB at the end of WW I.
Being a Christian, my scripture is the New Testament. The Jews are the ones who have the Old Testament as scripture. The Old Testament is put into the Christian Bible as a reference so people can look up the old prophecies about Jesus. It is not in there for Christians to follow. It is just your own cult which thinks any prophecies in the OT, outside of the ones claimed by Christians as being about Jesus, have any sort of relevancy outside of better understanding the terminology used by writers of the NT like Paul.
Maybe you're out trying to liberate the land regardless of scripture but your inferences of what I say and views of scriptural Christianity are what's deluded here; proven time and again.

No, but it takes a cult to twist it around to being some indication that things are going in the hoped for direction.

You keep bringing up the name, Islam, as if somehow I am supposed to automatically react in a negative way to these people. They are people and Christianity does not support the idea of hating people based on their religion, or to make crimes against people not of your religion OK.
You keep depersonalizing the injured party by calling the Islam. How about calling them Christians, since a part of the Palestinians are Christians?
You are because built into your cult's dogma is this theory that before Jesus can return, there has to be a rebuilt temple on Mt. Zion, so you benefit by being raptured before you meet a natural death by old age.

You seem to have a very legalistic view to be under grace in your heart. It's kinda weird and very telling if you ask me.
Again, you need to pay attention for a minute because you seem to have a problem focusing when you see something you do not like.
It is illegal for a country to invade another country in order to displace the original inhabitants with people brought over from their own country. This is by international law and treaty and the charter of the Unite Nations. What this means is that you can not invade a country and by right of conquest, make the new land, now inhabited by your own transplanted citizens, as part of your original country. So you do not "own" the Land and that land is not part of "you" to claim rights over.
If by "legalistic" you mean a judgment, then it is only weird from the point of view of your cult. Normal Christianity does believe like the Bible says, that all will face judgment after they die. It is only your cult that does not believe that for the obvious reason of what you are so well demonstrating right now.
The same people who brought us the plague of Communism brought your cult as an invented religion for exactly this purpose, which is to create a condition within Christianity where there is no moral compass or even any concern that there is none, so things like murder seem like a good thing, and nothing you will ever be called on for, as far as having any accountability for.
This i/s only based on wishful thinking on your part and not reality. The Palestinian Christians have no love for Israel,

Jesus took the scroll of the Prophets and went to a place in it and read, then said basically he was the fulfillment. End of story as far as prophecies goes. That does not mean that people did not still believe in certain eschatological events at some sort of end or beginning of the age. You see the remnants of those ideas in the New Testament.
Do Daniel, Ezekiel, or none of the other minor prophets have nothing to say about the end times or is all the OT prophecy regulated to time before Jesus?
Whatever cult I may have belonged to is not dictating how I interpret scripture. I am influenced by events in my life, there is no way of getting around that, but actual dogmatic type beliefs that I may have gotten from them are not something I feel any obligation to keep without some good reason I can find and verify for myself. My "cult" believed in all this "end of the world" stuff but I let that go once I realized there was no real backing for it and was more from ignorance of the Bible than anything else, that people thought back in the mid nineteenth century.
Your cult belief tells you one thing but the truth in scripture is far from what you are representing Dewey.
Well, not for you, since you are not one of the chosen few with the right genetic background. You are just following a bad religion invented like I said, in a time of ignorance, and some people can't bring themselves to making use of the resources available for understanding the bible.
Not all parts of the OT are for us now but that doesn't mean it is all irrelevant.
If you want to be political then whatever.
Can you identify the cult you think I belong to, otherwise you are just making that up since there is no such thing as a one person cult. That would defy the definition of a cult. I can identify your cult, which is why I say you are a cult member.
You're cult may believe that, but bible believing Christians don't.
A band of pirates calling themselves Israel does not make them Israel, just like someone calling themselves a Jew does not mean their ancestors lived in Judea. I love the true Israel, which is the church of Jesus.
Perhaps you have no love for Israel but Love is the Christian way.
Everybody dies, so everyone has the opportunity to face judgement, just like the Bible says.
I wish you could hear yourself. One reply up you are telling me I'm of a false cult because I warned of the wrath that is coming and here you are now saying your just warning of of the judgment.
Hello!! it's not Israel, it is a group of people calling themselves Israel. They are common criminals who is our obligation to judge for their crimes.
He didn't send you into this world to judge Israel or to do to Israel what Israel is doing to Palestine. Let the vengeance go. God knows and he sees and vengeance is his upon those who are really your enemy.
You don't have any way to actually argue it since all you have is a list of things you are supposed to believe in order to belong to your cult.
you're full of bull.
. . . your interpretations aren't built on scripture or even a proper translation of the Word. Dewey, come on!

It's called the law. You don't murder people and steal their land. That is a crime.
You support criminals. so you are just as guilty as if you pulled the trigger to shoot a Palestinian child.
Everyone in the US who is not complaining, and are just sitting their quiet as we give them the bullets, are equally guilty and will have to face a higher authority, God, who is not going to accept lame excuses.
The Jews never lived in Palestine before they came over from Germany, and neither did any of their ancestors. They are just people who read a story book about a place called Judea, and decided they should live there since it is where the name, Jew comes from. There is no more connection than that. You just keep repeating the same thing, which is just a lie, that somehow they have a claim to the land, and they don't. The people who do have a legitimate claim are the people who have been living there for the last fifteen hundred years and more

You're cult may believe that, but bible believing Christians don't.
Your cult's fallacy is that only people in their cult, according to them, are real Bible believing Christians, for no other reason than they do not agree with them.
