1. God delights in chesed, mercy, loving kindness, covenant loyalty. God glories in raising the dead. The redemption story of death and resurrection displayed in Jesus is also the redemptive story of Israel bringing that which is dead, an enemy, to life!

   All a thinking person has to do is look at the modern nation of Israel, Yes ISRAEL, again a nation and a strong nation standing against millions of Muslims that want them destroyed, who are against the God of Israel. Who has seen such a thing in all history? How could this has happened without God being with Israel? How many “beast” Empires have tried to destroy the people of Israel but have failed? A Kingdom divided cannot stand, just as Jesus taught.

   Hatred against Israel and the Jewish people shows that a professing Christian is just that, IMO. I mean Jesus Himself is a Jew for crying out loud!!! How could we ever look Jesus in the face if we hate the state of Israel and the Jewish people? Ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth describes all these so called “scholars” and their followers. The fruit of their teaching is rotten to the core.

   15“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16“You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? 17“So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18“A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. 19“Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20“So then, you will know them by their fruits.
