JD: It never hurts in my opinion to remind our listeners about what the Bible has to say about Israel’s right to that piece of real estate there in the Middle East and the danger for any person or nation that tries to undermine Israel’s right to exist in the land.
DJ: It begins in Genesis chapter 12 with God’s eternal unconditional Covenant with Abraham to create a new nation through his son Isaac and grandson Jacob. It’s confirmed in the Land Covenant in Deuteronomy 28 & 29. This is even confirmed further in the Davidic Covenant in II Samuel 7 where it says that a descendant of David will rule from the throne of David and it will be an ever-lasting kingdom. Then the new Covenant and Jeremiah 31 and Ezekiel 36 promises to Israel and Judah that God will change their hearts he will bring them back to the land and if the universe to collapse on its own that this Covenant could be broken. So, we know this is the word of God; God’s promise to the descendants of Abraham through Isaac and Jacob that this piece of real estate is God’s eternal land for his people and Jerusalem is the eternal capitol for that nation.
JD: David just mentioned for us four of the Covenants God made with the Jewish people. The Abrahamic Covenant promise of a nation forever, the Land Covenant promise of a piece of real estate forever, the Davidic Covenant with a place a Temple and a leader part of a Davidic kingdom i.e. Jesus Christ ruling from that Temple, that’s the Davidic Covenant II Samuel chapter 7, and the new Covenant made to Israel the Jewish people.
Now those are key are they not to our belief that he’s going
to keep his promise to the Jewish people so he has a plan for them but he also
keeps promises to us about eternal life?
DJ: Well I put it this way because our salvation is rooted in
the blood of the new Covenant our salvation is as secure as the nation as
Israel’s is and Israel’s is as secure as our salvation because of God’s
promises.
JD: David James with details that help us to understand God does
have a plan for the future of the Jewish people.
We report this information because it is setting the stage
for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
A study of God’s word the Bible tells us that the Lord has a
special plan for the Jewish people in the future. God’s Covenants, the four of
them: the Abrahamic Covenant, the Land Covenant, the Davidic Covenant, and the
new Covenant these are absolute promises from God’s word. Meaning that God does
have a plan for his people, the Jewish people in the future. If you deny that
truth you deny the word of God. A study of Bible prophecy will also help us to
recognize that this plan is actually being played out today.
