Why are nations giving Israel a hard time when God said He would protect it to the end?

Question

The Lord Will Rescue His People

43:1 Now, this is what the Lord says,

the one who created you, O Jacob,

and formed you, O Israel:

“Don’t be afraid, for I will protect1 you.

I call you by name, you are mine.

43:2 When you pass through the waters, I am with you;

when you pass2 through the streams, they will not overwhelm you.

When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned;

the flames will not harm3 you.

43:3 For I am the Lord your God,

the Holy One of Israel,4 your deliverer.

I have handed over Egypt as a ransom price,

Ethiopia and Seba5 in place of you.

43:4 Since you are precious and special in my sight,6

and I love you,

I will hand over people in place of you,

nations in place of your life.

43:5 Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.From the east I will bring your descendants;
from the west I will gather you.43:6 I will say to the north, ‘Hand them over!’
and to the south, ‘Don’t hold any back!’

Answer 1

Amen! At some point the entire world will be against the Jews, the US included. And the peace plan getting started in Rome is a part of the end time prophesies...10 major powers getting together in the Roman Empire to make a world peace treaty enforceable by the UN. I have a strong feeling the Antichrist will be popping up very quickly in the coming days/weeks.

Answer 2

Don't forget in the Bible it talks about the 2nd coming. If you read the sources right, the war in Israel could very well be the start of the 2nd coming. "There will be a great war that will involve the nations of this world, but I will protect Israel." Israel is God's timepiece!!

Answer 3

Yes, but what will start the battle of Armeggedon?
When the world community surrounds Israel!
That is also Biblical.
Satan no doubt hates Israel for producing the Holy One that bought our salvation.

Answer 4

It is prophisized in the bible.

Mark 13:8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

Luke 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.


Nation is right now rising against nation. But God will be on the side of Israel. for Israel are God's chosen people.

Answer 5

God fulfilled all his promises to the Jews when he conducted them into the promised land.

God fulfilled all his promises to Abraham when Jesus instituted his new covenant church.

Any other promises in the scriptures refer to the coming age, the one after this one, when God himself will destroy evil, and restore all that has been lost.

In the next age, the New Israel, which consists of all the faithful believers in Jesus Christ and his church, will be the beneficiary of all God's promises, not national Israel.

That's why today's Jews still need to come to Christ, and why we Christians are still called to evangelize them.

As for the present day and largely secular Jewish state of Israel ... a place where Christians are still routinely persecuted, and Christians are still forced to endure many other forms of very serious discrimination ... they're on their own ... until they choose to come to Christ.

Answer 6

Because they are the most untrustful people...and they are always in the business of reasons and excuses to slauter innocent people.
Unfortunatelly they have forgotten what they have suffered from the monster which is called Hitler and they try to assimilate him. During this period many tried to hide them from the "fire" and many paid with their lives for their actions.
What are they doing today????
They bombard the ambos of RED CROSS and the UN base in Lebanon.
SHAME
Read Genesis 34....and u'll get your answer.

Answer 7

Because people are either in ignorance of that or don't believe it. It would be interesting to see what the Qu'ran has to say about Isreal, I guarentee there isn't anything about trying to destroy it in there though. Maybe Isreal enduring all this and standing strong will get people to wake up and realize there is truth to the bible.

Answer 8

Could it be because they act a lot like a certian group of germans from the late 30s and the early 40s.
