So, ignoring the personal insults, you disagree with the analysis prepared by this CUNY study presented to the UN? You believe that Jewish population growth will maintain a vast Jewish majority in the area? Do you have any neutral academic studies to support your contention. Or are just blathering nonsense, punk.
We don't need a neutral academic study to prove the Word of God shall be fulfilled, Montelatici. Do you believe in God or don't you believe in God? There is only One God and He is the God of Israel. He has a covenant with His people and He will never break that covenant. There is no question that there were certain agreements made between Israel and God and when the people broke that covenant - consequences came forth. But that is not the condition of the covenant that God gave the Jews concerning Israel. It didn't require Abraham fulfilling the promise. It was all God and he made this clear - which we can see in scripture. That is why Sunni man and others who believe in replacement theology are seriously mistaken about the covenant God made concerning the land of Israel. It isn't "conditional". It's iron clad and it won't ever be broken. Don't believe it?
It's in His Word!
Look at Genesis 12: 2,3
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great: and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed. - Genesis 12: 2,3
( Note this! This is speaking of the Jewish people. NOT the church! The Jewish people! How are all the families of the earth blessed in the Jew? Salvation is of the Jew! Jesus told the woman at the well that Salvation is of the Jews! John 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what, we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. )
Look at Genesis 13: 14, 15
And the LORD said unto Abraham, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northeast, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land you see, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
Is God a man that He should lie? If God didn't keep his Covenant with Abraham? He'd be a liar. God is not a liar. God is going to keep His Covenant with Abraham and it isn't conditional on what the Jews do or do not do. Period.
What is God's Covenant with Abraham? That the land he saw, northeast, and southward, and eastward, and westward God was going to give to him and to his seed. For how long? Forever.
Look at Genesis 15: 7,8
And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chal'-dees, to give thee this land to inherit it. And he said, Lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it? And the Lord said unto him, Take me a heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon. And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against another, but the birds divided he not. And when the fowls came down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away. And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and lo, an horror of great darkness fell on him. And he said unto Abram, Know for a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years. And also that nation, whom they shall serve, I shall judge: and afterward they will come out with great substance. And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace, thou shalt be buried at a good age. But in the fourth generation, they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces. (the halved animal sacrifices) and then in verse 18 we see this! Verse 18 In that same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river of Euphrates.
Genesis 15: 7-18
That is the land that God gave Abraham's seed and that is the land they shall possess. ALL OF IT. Every word God spoke to Abraham while he was in a deep sleep was fulfilled and is being fulfilled right now. Every single word. Why was Abraham put into a deep sleep? Because this covenant that God made with Abraham was not conditional and his participation was not required. Why did God do this for Abraham? The verse that precedes these scriptures tells the story. Verse 6. What does verse 6 say? And he believed in the LORD, and he counted it to him for righteousness. Is God going to keep his covenant with Abraham that he made that day? Yes. He is.
and then read Psalm 105: 8-11
He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac, And he confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
Psalm 105: 8-11
You cannot separate the future of Israel from God's unbreakable covenant with Abraham and Abraham's seed. It is impossible.
Wow, I can't argue with that neutral source. LOL
God is not neutral, Monte. He is the God of Israel and protects His own.. On not arguing with the Word of God as recorded in the Bible? That is wise. After all, striving against the LORD is only going to lead to destruction. Why perish?
