SETTING OUR MINDS ON THINGS ABOVE
Lately, Jimmy carter has been ramping up his rhetoric regarding a two-state “solution” in Palestine. Once again, he is trying to delegitimize Israeli settlements and is pushing the U.N. Security Council to “take action.” Ostensibly, his call for action is in the interest of peace in the region. Beneath the surface, however, lie the same old anti-Israel sentiments he has held all his political life. I chose to write about this today as a reminder that eventually, after the dust of other world news has settled, the focus always returns to Israel.
As always, the opponents of Israel base their arguments on myths and misinformation. They have to because the truth is not on their side. At the top of the Myth List is the belief that the Arabs of Palestine want to co-exist with Israel but find it difficult since Israel keeps expanding its “settlements” into their territory. This is absurd on so many levels. The vast majority of Arabs in Gaza and the West Bank won’t be happy until Israel has been exterminated from the region. Co-habitation has never been an option.
The second absurdity is the notion of Israeli “occupation.” In a previous article, I exploded this myth with a brief history lesson. Most of my “seasoned” readers are well aware of both the history and the attached mythology. My purpose in restating the obvious is by way of a reminder that Israel continues to be the most important nation in the world. Elections and wars and economic turmoil distract us for a while, but the action keeps returning to Israel.
This should tell us something. The intensification of worldwide anti-Semitism should remind us of the real battle which is taking place in the heavens – a battle Satan has been waging against the Jewish people and their nation for millennia. His rebellion against God will only escalate as his end draws near. His hatred for both Jews and Christians will escalate, and at the center of it all will be Israel.
The best thing our nation can do is to reestablish our strong ties to Israel and expose Israel’s enemies and their false claims. The more Americans understand the truth, the less
success Israel’s enemies will have in spreading their lies. We must be diligent to pray for our future U.N. Ambassador, Nikki Haley, as well as our future Ambassador to Israel, whoever that may be. Honestly, I have never prayed for people in these positions before, but that’s about to change.
