Some Zionist Christians asked w hat do I think of modern secular?
Not much, but I told them this:
I don't know about your view on Israel. My
view is that modern secular Israel is REMOTELY related to the theocratic Israel
of the Bible; it's an invention of man. What had been divinely established at
the foot of Mt Sinai was ALSO divinely preserved until its abolition for good
in AD 70; the biblical theocratic Israel lasted for as long as only the LORD
God had intended it; when the time was fulfilled, it was forever done away
with.
That said, the modern secular Jewish nation
has every right to exist in peace and to defend itself, as much as any other.
Let the aggressors and warmongers on the
earth perish - "for all they that take the sword shall perish with the
sword." Amen.
Matthew 26:52 KJT "Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy
sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the
sword.

Amen. Old Testament Israel and modern secular
Israel are two completely separate and different things.

Brother Sing. I agree. I kindly do not go
along with the occasional idea of an end-times Jewish restoration. Jesus said
everything we need to know about the question in Matthew 23:39, "...Ye
shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in
the name of the Lord." Jesus was/is the "he that cometh in the name
of the Lord." I have not heard modern Israeli people praising or believing
in Jesus. Till I see that evidence, I respectfully stand with Jesus. Amen.

Amen to Brother Joe and Brother Sing. I
consider modern Israel an ally of our country, but in my opinion there is no
prophesy being fulfilled by the present nation of Israel, etc.

Another thought: I trust we are a part of
spiritual Israel, being a Spiritual Jew. That's what is important and if we are
a Spiritual Jew we are so by grace alone! ""For he is not a Jew,
which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outwardly; and
circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose
praise is not of men, but of God" (Rom. 2: 28-29).

Wayne, BOTH the Jews and the Muslims
fighting them have outward circumcision made by hands.
