*what's The Big Deal About Jerusalem?* by Antoeni(m): 11:08pm On Dec 09, 2017
- Making Sense Of All The Controversy

At the very heart of Bible prophecy is ISRAEL - and at the heart of Israel is JERUSALEM. God has made it abundantly clear in His Word that He has a covenant promise to the Jewish people and to their land. Not only did He promise to bring them back to their promised land, but He promised to restore their capital as it was from the beginning…

Zechariah 8:7-8
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country; And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in THE MIDST OF JERUSALEM: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.

In 1948, the "impossible" happened. Israel became a nation overnight. The Arab nations immediately attacked Israel to wipe it out. While outnumbered in every way, Israel won the war and actually gained more of their land. Yet Jerusalem was still under foreign control. During the Six Day War in June 1967, between Israel and the Arab states of Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, Israel not only conquered the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza Strip, West Bank, and Golan Heights, BUT ALSO REGAINED THE CITY OF JERUSALEM!

This was another amazing impossible event, but further proof that God's Word will come to pass. And yet, the battle has not stopped. Hell is determined to make God a liar and is doing everything to destroy God's plans for Jerusalem. Jerusalem has been attacked 52 times, captured and recaptured 44 times, besieged 23 times, and COMPLETELY DESTROYED TWICE. But God has a plan for Jerusalem, and it will come to pass

THE PROPHET ZECHARIAH HAD SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO SAY ABOUT JERUSALEM…

Zechariah 12:2
"Behold, I will make JERUSALEM a CUP OF TREMBLING unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem."

THIS IS AN AMAZING PROPHECY! God is going to make Jerusalem a cup of "reeling, staggering, shaking, intoxication" to all the people. In other words, people will act like they are drunken over this city, as they boast against it and threaten to fight it, even though they can't even stand on their own. Have you ever tried to reason with someone who is drunk? They don't think rationally, they see things from an intoxicated view.

Drunks have their "senses impaired" by the alcohol, dominated by an intense feeling; drunk with rage. And it's as if most of the world has their "senses impaired"; because they can't think rational about Jerusalem. They are "dominated by an intense feeling - drunk with rage" concerning Israel's right to exist, and Jerusalem as its capital.

Their thinking is irrational, it's just plain ridicules, it makes no sense at all. However, the world better sober up, because they are not merely fighting against a group of people; they are fighting against the Word of the Lord God! Read what else Zechariah's prophecy says…

Zechariah 12:3
"And in that day will I make JERUSALEM a BURDENSOME STONE for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be CUT IN PIECES, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it."

God will make it a hard, difficult, tough, strenuous, exhausting stone for all people. All who try to move it will injure themselves with gashes and lacerations. The Lord is warning to not even mess with this city; it's bigger than any drunk man or "strong man" could ever handle…

NOW, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THIS IN THE DAYS AND WEEKS TO COME!

But some may ask, why Jerusalem, John? What's the big deal about Jerusalem. Well, that's really quite simple. Jerusalem has so much importance to God and His plans for the entire world. And obviously, Hell doesn't like that at all. Consider these facts about Jerusalem…

Jesus died for the sin of the world in Jerusalem
Jesus rose from the dead in Jerusalem!
Jesus ascended to heaven from Jerusalem!
The Holy Spirit was first poured out on believers in Jerusalem!
The birth of the Church was in Jerusalem!
The Gospel was first preached in Jerusalem!
The Antichrist will rule from Jerusalem!
Jesus will return back to Jerusalem!
The headquarters for the Kingdom of God on earth will be in Jerusalem
God truly loves Jerusalem!

And these are a few reasons why Satan hates Jerusalem!

JERUSALEM...CHOSEN BY GOD - NOT ARABS

Jerusalem Is Mentioned 814 Times In The Bible!
Jerusalem Is Not Once Mentioned In The Koran!

KING DAVID FOUNDED THE CITY OF JERUSALEM 1,600 YEARS BEFORE ISLAM WAS FOUNDED. Mohammad NEVER came to Jerusalem. Jews pray facing Jerusalem - while Muslims pray with their backs toward Jerusalem.

For over 3,300 years, Jerusalem has been the Jewish capital. Jerusalem has NEVER been the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. Even when Jordanians occupied Jerusalem, they NEVER even tried to make it their capital, nor did any Arab leaders come to visit it as such, because it wasn't important to them.

ALSO, CONSIDER THIS: The Arabs are represented by 8 separate nations, yet there is only one Jewish nation. The Arab nations have initiated all five wars against Israel with Israel defending itself each time and winning each time. Interestingly, the Arab refugees living in Israel never began identifying themselves as part of a "Palestinian people" until 1967, two full decades AFTER the establishment of the modern State of Israel Under control of the Arabs and Muslims, the city laid in complete ruins for centuries, yet when the Jews returned to their homeland, suddenly the Arabs wanted to make the city of Jerusalem an issue!

JERUSALEM...CHOSEN BY GOD - NOT ARABS

This is the ONE place in all of the world, that Jehovah God - the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - has singled out and called "His Very Own"…so no wonder the controversy!

2 Chronicles 6:6
But I HAVE CHOSEN JERUSALEM, that My Name might be there; and have chosen David to be over My people Israel.

THINK ABOUT IT!

It's not about Jerusalem but the Jews in Jerusalem and their legitimizing their illegal and sole claim to ownership. Jerusalem has been in the same geographical position for centuries.

For Trump, its about North-Korea. He can't do anything to them(NorthKorea), so he might as well go where he can do something (exercise his power).

For the Saudi's .. its all good. As long as it weakens the Shiites influence.

Nigeria might, in the future move its embassy to Jerusalem. We are Sunni's and not Shiites. And will support the Jews as it will guarantee any future talks of cessation in Nigeria will be met with stiff opposition from the Jews, Saudi's and American's.

Nigeria is also majority Catholic, though the Papacy has in the past aired its position on this tiopic. History has shown the Christian Catholics and Sunni Muslims seem to frequently lean in the same direction grin.

It is not an international city, it belongs to the Jews and the Arabs are only land grabbers. Even a Muslim imam called imam tawhidi has exposed this fact.

what other proof do you need to believe Jerusalem belongs to the Jews? How do you know Mecca belong to the arabians? History, both biblical and scientific made it clear that Jerusalem belong to the Jews. Please think well next time, and endeavor to check at doctor"s place for brain wellness.

It's ironical you claim Jerusalem belong to the Jews but argue when fulanis say they are indigenous to states like pleatu

Jerusalem is belongs to the Palastains and independent unesco report showed this

It's stupid to back you claim from the bible it's really foolish

This is trump trying to be on the good books of Jewish money bags

So what if,for example,we encountered upon proof that a certain non-arabian tribe once lived in mecca thousands of years before the Arabians.Now according to you,that should give the tribe the right to come up now and seize by force the land.

It was once their land and before them it was once someone else's land.America was once someone else's land...in fact much of the land today that seems indegenous to any people were once someone else's land.
All this offers one no right whatsoever to come up one day and displace the inhabitants of a territory because your forefathers once lived there.
The truth is you guys only support them out of your spite for Islam/Muslims and because you are told to worship jews.

Africans probably use less than 10% of their brain power. What the hell is our concern with Jerusalem? What strategic importance is Jerusalem to us?
