Today's Hitlers

My point is really simple. God wants us to understand that regardless of what we may think of individual Jewish people and whether or not we support Israel's ability to defend itself, the nation of Israel is the nation that God created and raised up in order that He would bring the Messiah/Savior into this world. If not for Israel, would Jesus have even been born as a man? God's plan was to create a nation that would literally be a light to the world; a nation where God could work to reach all of humanity. Is Israel perfect? Absolutely not and in fact, most of Israel (including her leaders), are completely blind still to the truth of what God has done and continues to do. This blindness, as Paul says, is temporary in order to bring in the full number of Gentiles, but God has not completely forsaken Israel.
