I'm far from Protestant Evangelical, much more Latin Mass. I wouldn't trust the news you hear about Gaza and, any more than you trust mainstream media on politics or religion. Hamas is starving their own population. They run Gaza like Mafia bosses, hijacking aid trucks, feeding their followers and selling off the rest in markets. The leaders are worth billions and holiday abroad. https://nypost.com/2023/11/07/news/hamas-leaders-worth-11bn-live-luxury-lives-in-qatar/
Your take is secular. not spiritual You are very, very much mistaken. The truth is found not in many words. But few War is not the solution. If it ever was.
The problem is that your entire culture in the USA is "poisoned" by Israel, unlike the rest of the world, and this is precisely because the Jews control practically all the media and brainwash you for the last 70 years. Republicans and Democrats differ 100% in their views on abortion, migration, foreign wars, however, when it comes to Israel, the support is unanimous, everyone stands together even though America has absolutely nothing to do with Israel. Politicians who don't care about your own border where 10 million illegals have entered in the last couple of years, but are ready to defend a country 9000 miles away at the same moment at the cost of their lives. For me, Israel does not represent any role in my faith, I do not look at God through some prophecies, nor is it decisive for how I live my faith. If they had been blessed, they would not have been expelled from over 110 countries, they would not be at war with over 6 neighboring countries, they would not be the main founders and promoters of communism, pornography, and abortion in the West. This is a distortion of faith where some fanaticism, especially Protestants, tries to force God, when Israel exists then Jesus will appear...The view of good and evil, morality and justice, of all God's commandments is distorted and in fact the first commandment of God is violated, where God is placed below the common people such as the Jews. What are the Jews compared to the greatness of God??? An ordinary people made of flesh and blood, fallen like all peoples, without God and salvation they are nothing, an ordinary zero. However, in this fanaticism without reason, they are allowed to kill, abuse, lie, destroy because they are "chosen". How can someone combine faith in Christ, the living God who was scourged, tortured and crucified with the chosen ones who do bad things to someone and say that it is from the same God??? I guess as Christians we must stand for peace, justice and peace, not revenge, hatred and putting any man above another. I worship only God, and if I worship Him and His laws, then I cannot support evil from any nation, nor the propaganda that follows from it... If we allow the political goals of a certain ethnic group to be above our faith, then we are not Christians.
The apostles were Jewish. Christ was Jewish. The Church is the fulfilment and the replacement of the old covenant. The first Christians were Jews and through the Church the blessing of Abraham has extended to thr ends of the earth. The expulsion of the Jews in 70 ad was God's answer to their obstinacy and refusal of His revelation . The modern state of Israel is a political fabrication and utter disaster.
Even though they have fallen for rejecting the one who is the Only one who would bring them their own peace and salvation, the Jewish people have a prominent role in the end times because God predestined them; this does not free any Jew from eternal damnation for any law they transgress. Saint Paul assures us of this: his conversion marks a sign of the definitive and glorious return of Christ.
ROMANS 11:11-24 11 Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious. 12 But if their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their full inclusion bring! 13 I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry 14 in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them. 15 For if their rejection brought reconciliation to the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? 16 If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches. 17 If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, 18 do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. 19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.” 20 Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but tremble. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either. 22 Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. 23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. 24 After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
Well, personally, I thought a world war was coming from Ukraine and Russia. Never saw it coming from Iran or North Korea. Pretty smart of you Jo M. I guess we still have to wait for North Korea before it’s an official world war. Fr Michel says, the Warning will come before the North Korea conflict. What say you?
it is like giving up some of the countries' sovereignty in times of medical emergency to the WHO. Like if there is another pandemic and the WHO says you lockdown, all of the member countries should lockdown.
I never said anything about a world war. Iran/Middle East, North Korea, Russia and China have always been a source of worry for the world. I am not a visionary, so I will leave the timing of the Warning up to God.
So it's the people of Gaza murdering, butchering and starving the people of Gaza - including the slaughtering of children; and those good Israeli's sign petitions and send strong worded emails in response. To be fair, if more people had've sent strong worded emails to Hitler; the holocaust may well have been avoided.

Yep. Dopey Biden has been told by his handlers to repeatedly talk about the next pandemic. "There's gunna be another pandemic, maaan...", I've heard he and the other satanists regularly say.
