Dial Daily Bread

Dear Friends of "Dial Daily Bread":

Israelis are going through anguish. Their Prime Minister and Parliament have voted that it is necessary that Israelis leave the Gaza Strip. Conquered in 1967 from the Palestinians, they have regarded Gaza ever since as their God-given possession. Some have made their homes there, but it was necessary that the Israeli government keep soldiers there to protect them at enormous expense, for these few thousand Israelis have lived surrounded by more than a million Palestinians who believed they had no right to be there. How would you feel living in your house in a huge neighborhood of people who didn’t want you there? And you saw no hope of ever making friends with them.

 

How did God tell these Israelis that He was giving Gaza to them? Did He speak by the ultra-modern weapons supplied by America and other allies in the 1967 conquest? The Palestinians have not believed that. Did God speak through Abraham, giving Jews the entire land of Palestine, irrespective of their crucifying their Messiah when He came? It was only through that Messiah that they were to realize their eternal ownership of the land! (They actually repudiated their claim to the land when they cried out at Christ’s crucifixion, “We have no king but Caesar!” John 19:15). And the Palestinians also claim Abraham as their father!

 

A conflict in the interpretation of the Bible lies at the bottom of Middle East tension, and thus, of world tension.
