The Scripture That
Zionists Ignore
By David J. Stewart
Romans 4:13,
“For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham,
or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.”
Romans 4:13 is ignored by Zionists. The
Bible plainly teaches that all the promises made to Abraham and to his seed,
are only to those who have Christ's righteousness, which is solely
through faith in Jesus Christ. Only born-again Christians will enter into
the Promised Land when the Lord returns at the Second Coming. No unsaved Jew
nor Gentile will enter the Promised Land.
Many of America's churches have been infiltrated with the demonic doctrine of religious Zionism, which teaches that Jews are more special to God than Gentiles. That is not what the Scriptures teach. Romans 10:12 teaches, “For there is NO DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon Him.”
Although God does have special plans for the nation of Israel during the coming Tribulation Period, and God did refer to Israel as “the apple of His eye” in (Zechariah 2:8); this refers to the nation of Israel as an entity, and not to Jews themselves. God is NO respecter of persons (Romans 2:11). John 3:16a proclaims “For God so loved the world.” God loves the poverty-stricken Arab suffering in Palestine, as much as He loves the Jewish person living in a home in Israel. Whether you give money to a needy Jew, or to a poor black person, your reward is the same.
The holocaust was horrible and tragic; but it disturbs me that few people care about all the other victims of war throughout history. What about the 20,000,000 Chinese murdered by the Japanese in WW2? What about the 3,000,000 murdered Cambodians under Nixon? What about the 100,000,000 victims of the Russian gulags? Were they not people too? I am not diminishing the evils of the Jewish holocaust, God forbid; I am simply saying that it is wrong that we fail to recognize all the other victims of war. And mostly, the 50,000,000 victims of murderous abortion in America. It is truly the woeful American holocaust. As a nation, we've brutally murdered nearly 10-times more victims in America than did Hitler. Think about that!
Romans 4:13, “For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.”
Only those Jews and Gentiles who come to God the Father through His Son, Jesus Christ, for forgiveness of sins and salvation, will enter the Promised Land.
The main religion in Israel is Judaism with 76.4% of the population following it. God is kind to the thankless and evil (Luke 6:35); but God does not bless the wicked indefinitely. God is slow to anger and long-suffering, but His patience does wear out eventually. I'd say God has been incredibly patient. God is justified in all that He doeth. Judaism is a demonic false religion. God will not bless Israel as long as she follows Judaism. There are less than 0.4% non-Arab Christians living in Israel. Of the 2.1% professed Christians in Israel, 1.7% (80%) are Arab Christians. Literally, only 1-in-every-250 non-Arabs in Israel are professed Christians. Obviously, the 0.4% aren't even all Jews.
There are also Asians, Africans and other racial groups living in Israel. So quite likely there are only about 1-in-a-1,000 Jewish Christians in Israel, if that. Why should God bless Israel today? Overall only 1-in-200 citizens of Israel profess to be a Christian. It's sad and tragic. What irony! How could the Holy Land have less than 1-in-200 people living there who profess to be Christian?
Salvation happens when a person acknowledges their guilt of sin, and comes to God on the basis of being a hell-deserving sinner; believing on Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God, for forgiveness of sins. Jesus died, was buried and rose from the dead for our sins (1st Corinthians 15:1-5). This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Faith alone in the Gospel plus NOTHING equals salvation! Faith in the Gospel is the only way to the Promised Land.
