Regarding Israel

There is ONLY ONE correct response for the USA, a Christian Nation despite efforts to tear that down, to have regarding Israel as a nation. It must stand. If only two nations on this earth must stand it must be the Israel first and USA second. It must stand with it's Davidic Boarders as promised through Torah. It must NEVER placate enemies. It must NEVER give up land. It must regain and possess ALL it's promised land. It must be backed up by money and might, but more importantly with staunch moral and political support. Any threat to Israel must be seen as a grave theat to the USA. Fierce and Immediate action must be taken in response to such a threat.

Only when Presidents of the USA cease seeking peace through negotiation and begin to seek peace through dominance over terrorists and enemies of peace. The USA did to Osama Bin Laden as Israel should do to ALL leaders who would dare to bring threat against them.

Only this stance can ensure peace for the USA and Israel. It is God's stance throughout His word. It was only when enemies were "tolerated" by Israel that she was destroyed.

Bible Versus on Politics

I have had more than one debate over what the bible has to say about political decisions this year. The fact is that the Bible has MUCH to say about all matters of life. In my search see what was already being said I found this helpful page of verses.

Romans 13:1-7 ESV / 130 helpful votes

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience. ...

James 4:1-12 ESV / 1 helpful vote

What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”? ...
