The Faith of Israel

The New Testament tells the story of how a Roman officer demonstrated great faith in God and Jesus said, "I have not seen faith like this even in Israel."

Today the Christian Church needs to look at the faith of some Jews and say "We need faith like this."

The link is to the Temple Mount Faithful, an Orthodox Jewish group that is dedicated to rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem. I am not certain about the idea of rebuilding the Temple, but I do see genuine and great faith and a willingness to obey in these people, which the Christians should be willing to emulate.

Listen to these words:
The small Israel will overcome this difficult time. As it was in the biblical times the G-d of Israel, the Creator of the Universe, is fighting together with the Israeli soldiers against the messengers of the devil. These evil powers want to destroy what G-d is doing with Israel at these critical times and to eliminate not only Israel but the great hope for all the world for a better mankind. They have illusions that they can win the battle against G-d and His people Israel. They never learned from their own experience and experience of other evil powers throughout the history of Israel that believed that they can destroy the G-d and the people of Israel. They were all defeated by the G-d of Israel and His Israeli soldiers and have disappeared completely under the judgement of G-d from the stage of history. The same will be their destiny now as G-d promised to His people Israel through her great prophets. They have no chance. Who can challenge the G-d of Israel and the Universe

That is faith

I read this groups writings and they are so close to the truth, but still they miss when they do not recognize Who their Moshiach was and is. Still God keeps His covenant with them.

Those who bless you I will bless and those who curse you I will curse.

I'm not that proud of my Irish blood but I'm sure proud of my Jewish blood.

The Jewish people have been dealt the short end of the stick for such a long period of time that only their unbelievable faith could get them through it. They are indeed survivors, and I admire them greatly. We Americans could learn a lot from them.

There is a strong connection between Christians and Israel for a reason.
