These conflicts started because of the flaws of the patriarchs. God knows all but won't always prevent bad things from happening, but He will always bring good out of what happens.Sushan wrote: ↑06 Mar 2021, 03:19The non-ending battles in the Middle East are merely due to their socio-political issues as well as religious issues. Seemingly the religions, which should have caused spiritual development of people, have become a cause of war in this region.rondanoh1 wrote: ↑05 Mar 2021, 16:01 There will be a war with Israel in the future; we see that in the Bible and is pointed to by the author. I believe this war will include much of the Middle East since there has been conflict between Israel and the Middle Eastern people for centuries. This started with Ishmael and Isaac, then Esau and Jacob. God told each of these patriarchs, and their brothers there would be a conflict between them and their ancestors. This is still playing out today. Whether larger countries enter this war on either side is harder to decipher, but it is probable.
Well, let's say that God predicted this war and warned about it to those Israelis ancestors. Then why God did nothing to prevent it?
The author predicts a war against Israel in the near future. What do you think about that?

Okay, but if you consider the fact that he is referring to the old testament, not considering the new, where it is written in peoples hearts. The new testament is about your relationship with God. No promised lands. God is not going to judge a nation but an individual right? Plus that was when Jesus came and wiped our slait clean. We don't have to suffer for the transgressions of our ancestors. That is why there is an old testament and a new testament(that is our individual covenant with God or Jesus).Sushan wrote: ↑07 Mar 2021, 08:07I agree. Israel is not the only country that might face a war. But when we consider the ancient biblical and other Christian stories, Israel is the promised are by God for His people. So, this author claims that God's divine plan is to be happened there. And the serpent's job or will or whatever it is to stop that. And that is the explanation that this author gives for his prediction.63tty wrote: ↑07 Mar 2021, 01:43 First of all, I don't believe God is political. I don't at all agree with the author on that. Why just Israel, there are so many other nations being oppressed. But, about his prediction, I could only wish I were to live at that time. If his findings drive that, I can't dispute it, but I will know when the "true" end times reach.
Anyway, war is possible for any socio-political or geographical reason. But I don't think this spiritual war concept is anywhere near the truth

I respect the Bible but I think it requires a deep interpretation. What it signifies may not be what we see or understand.Sushan wrote: ↑03 Mar 2021, 08:27What I see is that, Israel is at the end of hatred by other muslim countries because of the American favouration to them. They have collected Jews and formed a country, and also continues to support them in various ways. In return, Israel is supporting America for its world domination process (though the Americans don't speak of such a thing publicly, it is happening). So with that, the Muslim countries may think to declare war against them. But with America backing Israel, I don't think they will actually go into war. So this author's predictions may not happen just because it is said in the bibleCrcraig wrote: ↑03 Mar 2021, 08:20 Yes, a war involving Israel will happen. I talk with a woman from Middle East weekly. The perspective of the Moslem world is not reported well in the US.
Things are happening there that indicate that war will happen we just don't know when. Particularly as the Western world supports Israel and the Moslem world hates them. I do believe the predictions of the author are well documented and follow what the Bible tells us. Though the Western world will be involved, I think the trigger will be between Israel and the rest of the Middle East.

Why do I find this hard to believe too. I don't see any wars. If any wars happen, we cannot blame it on the Bible. They are human doings.Sushan wrote: ↑03 Mar 2021, 08:27What I see is that, Israel is at the end of hatred by other muslim countries because of the American favouration to them.
