Genesis 12:3 "And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee; and in thee shall all nations of the earth be blessed." Point: God has promised to bless the man or nation that blesses the Chosen People. History has proven beyond reasonable doubt that the nations that have blessed the Jewish people have had the blessing of God; the nations that have cursed the Jewish people have experienced the curse of God.

Written by Moses, I believe. He killed about 3500 people who wouldn't fall in line.
Nations who haven't sucked up to Isreal have felt the wrath of American Jews. Don't kid yourself. Without billions in US taxpayer money , Israel would collapse like a house of cards.

But in that verse I don't read anything about Israel. Also at that time the tribes of Israel was just that, tribes. The land that Israel now illegally occupies belonged to the Canaanites (which now inhabit present day Lebanon and was ruled by the Egyptians.) The Israel of today is land filled with people who did not originally belong in that country.It is a country that feels that they should be given their own land for their own religion. They strong armed their way in and took over another country, Palestine. This is why the Arab's hate them. It is not because that hate them as a people they hate the actions of that nation that thinks they can invade another country and take land just because they want a homeland. If they had tried this in any other country like France, Great Britain or the USA we would be outraged and sending troops to defend the people. And if any religion tried to take over a country because they wanted to establish a religious state and fill it with immigrants from all over the world we would protest. It is only the guilt of the world over the Holocaust that Israel is allowed to exist, we feel guilty so we give them what they want and ignore the rights of the Palestinians to their homeland. It is to make us feel better.

Gen 12:3 is referring to "Abram" of Abram/Abraham, not Israel of Jacob/Israel. And it doesn't say God in Gen 12, rather the LORD. Furthermore the end of Gen 12:3 is "blessed" ONLY, not both blessed + cursed is an oxyMORON ending as BAD as saved(graced) + destroyed(lawed) after, as does "one proselyte" when it is made end being "twofold": "more the CHILD of hell" (Mt 23).
POINT: God(Grace & truth) cannot curse(law & lie).
Thereby God(Grace) cannot die(law).
Point: it's preposterous order to teach first and learn after.
Bless = Grace
Curse = Law ("the curse of the law")
In "which things are an allegory": Gal 4
Bless (grace) and curse (law) not: Rom 12:14
Be angry (grace) and sin (law) not: Eph 4:26
The LORD (LAW) you would mistakenly call God (Grace) notably said, and unto so-called chosen people: I will forsake you, and the city I gave you, and your fathers ( x 2 in Jeremiah). Eg: Babylon.
In contrast and comparison God said: I will never leave thee nor forsake thee ( x 7). And it's noted again in Hebrews 13:5; notably To The Hebrews.
As for History, what's "evident" from all that evidence is "that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God": Gal 3; noted to "foolish" and "bewitched" churches.
As for America, over 25% are mentally ill and being treated for it. Worse yet, medical experts fear another 30% mentally ill but not yet diagnosed or being treated: and such is according to a Harvard survey; an American survey of Americans. Perhaps the reason is GWB says: 'America is a nation under law' (thereby under the curse), when the Bible says: "ye are not under the law, but under grace"... "if led of the Spirit(God)". Selah Americah.
What is the curse of the law? If you invoke the law and breach any of it, anytime, unto 1000 generations, you're all accursed.
As for Revelation(Uncovering) of John, it's an allegoric portrayal of the "worse"-end state of man noted in Mt 12:45, which notably also speaks of "seven spirits". Yet thank God the NT has no mention at all of "worst", but "blotting out" what's against us: law.
Conclusion of Hebrews & Revelation say the same thing, and there's notably no mention of law(curse) in the grace us ending.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.

properly there's a wonder. The Bible is written through Jews, the old testomony especially through bloodthirsty Jewish nationalists. And in accordance to them, God is on their aspect! He would not like different international locations, and he's were given all varieties of vengeful plans to finish on them in the journey that they attack his loved people! Wow. you already know, i have even heard rumors that the Pope is a Catholic. are you able to extremely no longer see that this habit of figuring out God's applications with the political pastimes of one particular united states of america has delivered about infinite mischief, and could proceed to attain this till we placed our partisanship to at least one aspect? God is the God of all races, no longer basically Jews, no longer basically Muslims: yet each and every man or woman. If we gained't settle for this, we are in enormous worry, and the atheists will be proved authentic: faith is a chance. As for the politics right here, Hamas is a 17 November, and Israel is an arrogant and brutal regime; they're as undesirable as one yet another and that's extreme time the UN exerted its authority - no longer for sure that the U. S. has cared too a lot about seeing justice finished. Its one-sided coverage in the route of Israel through the years is in a roundabout way in charge for a number of the bloodshed now.

JESUS IS THE SEED Matt.1:1-17 ALL NATIONS OF EARTH ARE BLESSED
Heb.2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. Heb.2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
Hev.2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
1Cor.15:22-28,51-53 The last thing to be destroyed is death by Jesus our SAVIOR.
2:16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is Israel and the twelve tribes of Israel [ NOT FORGOTTEN IN THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS ], in the Promised Land Israel is terrible. Judah fInally becomes to be terrible and God is not represented by them but rather misrepresented.
Hell fire, Tophet, Gehenna or the valley of the son of Hinnom 2Chr.28:1-4; Jer.7:30,31 and 19:2-5 [ such never entered the mind of God, Mark 9:42-48 same in day of Jesus ];
THEY HAVE THIS PROMISE AS SOULS BORN TO DIE IN THIS LIFE
Matt.19:28 in the judgement day as resurrected souls Eze.37:12-14 they return to their own land Isaiah 65:17; 66:1,22,23 and their seed will remain before God. Job 19:25,26 was one of them and this is what he expects. ALL IS AFTER THE JUDGEMENT DAY.

Yes. Jerusalem is where the one true God will return to establish his Kingdom on Earth, his Son at his side and immersed in the Holy Spirit.
Israel is blessed by YHVH and Islamic militants should take note of the hate they espouse. I fear that paradise and 7 virgins do not await their martyrs.

The old testament has god commanding Israel to commit genocide on numerous occasions, so I guess bible believers wouldn't have any problems with a bit of ethnic cleansing in modern times as well.
Unfortunately, I do have a problem with it. Does that make me "cursed"?

They are referring to israel(pbuh) the man and not the land. The children of israel(pbuh) are not israel(pbuh) per se. The warnings from GOD in the old testament were from those days. Where there was no such thing as christianity or islam. I don't think there was even a land called israel(pbuh) back then. It was the kingdom of jeruselem. That warning does not apply anymore because of the coming of christ and muhammad(pbuh). It only applies to jacob(pbuh) himself. PEACE!

the word bless means literaly to cover in blood and curse means literaly to condem or to destroy all. so i dont know where you are coming from only that i dont want to ever believe in christianity and your book is also just stolen stories anyways. isreal the first country of god was covered in blood for god took his wrath upon it so think about it for a little while and see where we all as non christians come from.
