In reviewing the comments, we thought it necessary to make the following very clear. We are unashamedly pro-Israel. We believe God still has a plan for Israel. We believe the land of Israel belongs to Israel. We believe God will fulfill all the promises He made to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, etc., regarding Israel. We fully support Israel's right to defend itself. With that said, we do not believe Israel is guiltless in this conflict. We do not believe Israel has handled its relationship with the Palestinians and its Arab neighbors perfectly. Just as the Old Testament records the nation of Israel making many mistakes, so has the modern nation of Israel made many mistakes. Pointing out those mistakes does not mean we are anti-Israel. Pointing out those mistakes does not mean we blame Israel for what is taking place. Please read the following articles: www.gotquestions.org/support-Israel.html and www.gotquestions.org/Israel-land.html and www.gotquestions.org/why-God-choose-Israel.html

We should be praying like there is no tomorrow. We should be praying for people to stop the violence on both sides.

It is not an Israel Arab land issue. It's a Jewish Islam/Muslim religious issue. This issue is with anyone who is not a Muslim follower of Islam.

God has been very clear and consistent, all through Scripture, He blesses those who bless, and curses those who curse, Jacob.

A few slight corrections, my friend. Israel did not declare themselves a nation. The UN actually had a plan set in place for Israel and the Palestinians to each have their own land. The problem was, the Palestinians did not like the deal they were given so they joined several countries in going to war with Israel. The Palestinians didn't flee. They fought and tried to wipe out Israel with the other arab nations. So, they were not innocent in that endeavor.

I think that Jesus is shedding tears of great sorrow every time anyone is killed in spite of his or her nationality. It is Satan that is pleased with it. “Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. “ I’d like to pray that brothers and sisters in the Lord in both Israel and Palestine who believe in Christ Jesus will not be disappointed and not lose their faith in Jesus and that they can love one another in Him.

I understand that those other countries controlled the land… but you downplay the reason why. God exiled them. Jesus told them their house will be left desolate. To not mention that part is strange.

I'm shocked that you said that the Jews in that area declared themself a nation in 1948. My understanding and everything I've read is that Britain made that space available for all the Jews to come home to and the United Nations was in agreement to declare that space as Israel. You say that it was just the Israelis it declared it as a nation. I think you're wrong.

Amen! You are absolutely right brother, God bless you

Condemn evil at all cost and pray for all ,no matter if its Israelis or its Palestinians or people from any other nations. These are very very very much desperate times for both nations involved in war. They both have right to defend themselves and from our past experiences we know how gruesome the war can be , leaving a long term socio-psychology effects on the individuals. rather than picking sides, offer prays and extend your helping hands to whomsoever necessary as much as you can. The real perpetrator is not the human but devil who has set all the lies and facades with only one intention in mind that is to deviate more and more souls from Christ. the truth is there will be two groups of people in the end and both of them will be judged. its sure one group will end up in eternal hell alongside the devil. I firmly believe Lord has plans for both nations , believers in either sides. i pray leaders of both nations come to understanding and stop this war as immediately as they can. Lord please help us !

If you call yourself a Christian AND believe the Bible, you will realize God calls Israel, His Land and His People...Joel 3:2 NKJV I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of MY PEOPLE, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up MY LAND. (IOW, not Palestinians or Palestine)

Christians, please don't solely rely on your logic, cultural and historic understanding and research only as we are living in the end times and Christ our redemption and salvation is about to appear any day now. There is so much misinformation out there but this is all spiritual warfare so keep on fervently praying in the Spirit for all people of the world while all the enemies of Christ are being made His footstool by our righteous and sovereign heavenly Father!❤

Very well said.

This is the second video I've seen from you guys that was biblically inaccurate but this is the first one I've seen where it is historically inaccurate. Please, for heavens sake read History before making videos.

I really appreciate Got Questions but this wasn’t answered well. It does not explain the intense spiritual battle that is raging over this area. I live here as a messianic believer with my family and I’m surprised at the lack of understanding what is really happening here

1) when Jerusalem is surrounded by armies, flee to the hills Israel land promised to 12 Tribes not just Judah, also in Joshua it says the Palestians will be there always

In 1947 after WWII, the UN divided up the land into two states and the Arabs rejected the plan even though it was ratified by the United Nations. No Arab state accepted it. The Arab states all immediately went to war against Israel. Israel won that war and then declared themselves a state. This is different than just saying that they declared themselves a state as you say in this video You left out the facts.

The Spirit and the Bride say, Come Lord Jesus...

Romans 3:25-26 King James Version 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

Thanks for this GQ.... watching now 🙂🙏

Can someone please remind this guy who the apple of God's eye is.

The land is promised to Israelfrom the Almighty, you should be really careful about what you are saying!

partially agree. but tone stays on gray zone.

It is what the God of Abraham, said that is accountable: Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: - You people are either with the "seed" or against it, there are no neutral standing in the scriptures; if you are not sure there is no reason to wait for the "seed" to return.

You have a misunderstanding of the situation which is why you think Israel shouldn't occupy Gaza. The Palestinians tried to annihilate Israel in the Arab-Israeli war. Israel also was given a portion of the land from the UN. You have a misconception of history which is why I consider this video to be inaccurate. You should really study history instead of taking what you've been taught in the poor US public education system. The teacher who told you those things was probably a liberal.

It's called Israel, NOT Palestine. That's its name, God gave it because the land ultimately belongs to Him and His people Israel by a perpetual covenant that lasts until God's covenant with the sun and moon ends.

This is all happening bcoz it has been prophesied already, the signs of Second coming of Christ. It is tym to pray for self and each other and be ready, waiting His coming brothers. ❤God bless you all🙏🏿

Amos 1:6-8 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Gaza, even for four, I will not relent. Because she took captive whole communities and sold them to Edom, I will send fire on the walls of Gaza that will consume her fortresses. I will destroy the king of Ashdod and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon. I will turn my hand against Ekron, till the last of the Philistines are dead," says the Sovereign LORD.

Do we need to take Communion to be Saved? In John Jesus says if you don’t drink my blood and eat my flesh you have no life in yourselves If you drink my blood and eat my flesh I will give you eternal life Thank you for All your Help and Time God Bless you

Hello, in these difficult times for the world I wholeheartedly encourage you to watch the film marching to zion. It is a very uplifting film.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🙏🏻

In general, I like the articles of Got Questions I have read. To me, this quality of the answer in this video is disappointing. With all due respect, I think it may have been better to say less or to say nothing. Notice that although it is true that the Roman Empire scattered the Jewish people from the area currently occupied by the modern state of Israel, Israelites had been scattered previously by both the Assyrians and the Babylonians. Since antiquity, most of the descendants of those who were scattered have lived *outside* the land. (Today, as many Jews live in the United States as in Israel.) I'm disappointed but not surprised to comments here which seem to imply that the Jews in Israel should exercise a divine right and a divine mandate to eliminate non-Jews from the Promised Land with violence. I agree that the Bible says that the Israelites of the time of Joshua and David had that right and that mandate, but I don't see Jesus or any of the apostles saying that the Jews of their time or of later times do. Jesus and the apostles were *not* Zealots. Those who cite the passages of the Bible that says that God promised the land to Abraham and his descendants need to realize two things: 1. Many of Abraham's descendants are descendants of his first son, Ishmael. They should think about that when they think about citing Genesis 12:1-3. 2. God did not give Abraham or anyone else that the descendants of Isaac and Jacob an unconditional promise that they would inhabit and govern the land. Anyone who believes that ought to read the Bible beyond the book of Genesis--especially the books of the prophets, especially those of the prophets who prophesied before the Assyrian exile and the Babylonian exile, e.g. Jeremiah.

Sad. The problem is ideology and terrorist rule. The people are really nice! Not their fault! The terrorists need to go.

These people don’t read the Bible. This is suppose to happen and these nations will be destroyed.. no peace til Jesus comes back 😅

Am Yisrael Chai ... Am Yisrael Chai (Hebrew: עַם יִשְׂרָאֵל חַי; lit. 'The people of Israel live

@5:29 Q: Does the Bible have / prescribe a specific solution? A: YES Joshua 1:4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast. This is GREATER ISRAEL

The Land Belongs to God. His Chosen people are the Jewish People. They were brutally attacked on 7th October. They will defend their God given land. They have a duty and responsibility to o so. I support Gods Chosen People.

I’m usually very blessed, encouraged and enlightened by the content of Got Questions staff. However, this was a very important and unfortunate mishandling and misrepresentation of The Lord. The land of Israel is not up for division, sharing, or even debate with other people groups. I’m astonished of the lack of scripture used in this short sighted explanation. YHWH claimed israel as His special possession both in people and land. He put His Name in Jerusalem. Israel’s sin (among many) was agreeing to allow any other people group to possess any part of the land as the Lord God forbade to do. I still enjoy the content of this ministry and the great work done here. Just disappointed in such an obvious mishap. The lord bless you all. 🙏🏼💟✝️

MY BRAIN 🧠 : As A Christian I Say Free Jerusalem Jerusalem Shall Be A Country JANUARY 29, 2024 ( Not Agreeing Me Is For Coward's )

The Bible does give a solution. In the words of Jesus. "Go therefore and make disciples of ALL nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:19-20) Jesus command right until the end.of the age.

The bots are surely out on this forum 😅

God never said fight for israel. He says to pray for israel.

Extremely disturbed that question how Israel has handled relationship terrorist. How dare you🙏🙏

Leaders of arab countries for sure knew the history of Canaan land. They are descendants of Ishmael which acknowledge Abraham, Moses, David, Salomon & even Christ (Isa). They knew David was king in Israel, the land given to the Isaac, Jacob. For arab to deny Israel history in canaan land is denying their own religion. They also 100% knew there was no Palestines ethnic or nation exist. They knew history of Roman naming Palaestin as embarassment to Israelis. What was happened at the early stage of land dispute is arab intention of power & territory. This has evolving overtime to more complex motivation to keep the israel Palestinian conflict on going. Now Israel Palestine conflict is top #1 issue for: 1. Neighbouring countries for political purpose: to distracts their muslim citizens everytime they facing domestic troubles. Look at Turkish Lira devaluation, & look at Iran Islamic regime recent teouble with the hijab protests. There is no other issue in the world can draw unity among infighting between arab peoples compare to Israel - Palestine issue. For this reason, arab countries leaders deep down in their wish for sure to let keep the status quo in this land for distraction in any time in the future required. Well as long as the Palestinians not entering into their territory (palestinians known as unruly trouble makers by Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Kuwait etc). Even countries far away from the region use this for sympathy for popularity. 2. Financial gain. Every time conflict happened, countries around benefited with the rise of oil price. Palestinians siffering from israel unfair treatments is number not selling topic, block buster for drawing attention & donations. (Even Palestines militants are always the one who start the attack). We knew now also that Hamas leaders are all billionaires from donation & foreign money living lavish lifestyle in Qatar while ordinary Palestinians live in poverty. These militants don't want peace came in this land as it mean no more support money for their luxury living. Palestine israel issue also number one topic for religious clerks to get followers. And they too get financial gain. Ultimately the ones suffered are ordinary Palestinians & Israelis. Peace will come only if the 🌎 start taking any advantage from the issue and peoples across religion and nations need to be more educated & knowledgeable not fall into the bait thrown by relugious clerks, politicians, & organisations. When there is no market buying the product, the politicians, religious clerks, & organisations will stop meddling. Peace will come for Israel & Palestine.

Support Israel 1000%

Well remember we don’t hope for Christs return we hope for the rapture.

I just dont understand the christian. why are they support israel killing innocent Palestinian, why are christians support the colonialism, and all unhuman act from israel? i just dont understand them

Could this be a sign of the end times?

The Bible prescibes only ONE SOLUTION to the current EVIL crisis - act in a Christ like manner & love your God with ALL your heart & mind & your fellow man as yourself !!!! says Jesus Christ ....Shalom....old Messianic Jew.

Be an Atheist, God actually dont have any intrest over human beings .Realize that truth , free your mind , treat every life equally, stay peacefully, If a God promote war , just think using your commonsense what God it is ?

I think it’s pretty clear: you are either on the side of the Antichrist (Islam) or you are on the side of Jesus Christ (the true church and the coming harvest of souls in Israel). “For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that He might utterly destroy them, and that they might receive no mercy, but that He might destroy them, as the LORD had commanded Moses.” -Joshua 11:20 God hasn’t changed.

I respond as Jesus would with loving care for ALL of Abraham's Children although my family-fake Israel- not true Israel who follow God's Messiah Son ; less than 1/12th - are hard to deal with !! Butchering & murdering Women & children which EVIL & will fall back on them!!! ... Maranatha Shalom....old Messianic Jew.

O, Christians, wake up. (1) Israel in Bible is not same as Israel of today. Israel was name of Jakob and his children who followed true teachings of God almost 3,500 years ago. Later, they changed their book before Jesus' time. (2) Israelis hated Jesus and tried to kill Jesus. Herod, the Israeli king, ordered to kill Jesus. Nowadays, the Christians mistakenly confuse today's Israel with Israel mentioned in Bible. (3) If Israelis were chosen people, why did they deny Jesus? God's chosen people should have recognized Jesus easily. (4) Jesus will come back to bring peace on earth. Jesus do not support genocide. Israelis still deny Jesus today. Israelis will deny Jesus again when he comes back. Please spread this message to all Christians.

ISRAEL LAND OF GOD CHOSEN PEOPLE !!!!

You forgot to mention one very important little fact: God promised that land to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and to their descendants. You earned a thumbs down on this one.

Israel doesn't even acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the WAY.

This is why I unsubscribed from this channel. You have been greatly influenced by the world on this issue. Your pendulum is swinging too far left and too far away from the bible.

God gave Israel the land; period. He promised it to Abraham and his descendants. This is a Biblical matter as the beginning of this conflict is recorded in the pages of the Bible and playing out currently; as the Bible said it would. How millions say the Bible isn't true is beyond me. Evidence is right in our faces. It's a shame that there are 22 full islamic nations, and they don't want one Jewish nation to exist. Oh, the wrath of God upon those who trample His chosen people; ask Assyria, Babylon, and others. They might have prevailed a little while, but God brought all of them down to a tragic end. The same will happen in the 21st century.

I support the Jews Gods People God will watch over them. War is sad and many get killed that are innocent as all wars do.

I will sum this up for those of you not seeing this clearly. This isn't about who the land rightfully belongs to. One could make the argument that the land belongs to those who are in covenant with God. That group just so happens to be Christians. Scripture say's there is neither Jew, Greek, or gentile in the body of Christ. We are all one. So ethnic distinctions are of no relevance in the Body of Christ. Which means that God's chosen have nothing to do with race. What we should be focused on is whether or not an injustice is being committed. We determine this by measuring the actions of Israel, and Hamas by the standards and teachings of our savior Christ. Do we see "love thy neighbor" being exhibited by the Israelite's? Do we see "love thy enemy" being demonstrated? The main source of chaos, and destruction in that region is the lack of compassion, oppression, and inhumane treatment of the Palestinian people. Our Lord would not approve of how those people are being treated. That is what's at the heart of this issue. To ignore this, is unChristian.

I WILL UNSUSCRIBE ! YOU ARE NOT LOYAL TO THE SCRIPTURES ! ISRAEL GODS CHOSEN

This is just gog Magog light before the rapture the real war is in the middle of tribulation
