Seems odd to me that a born again Christian would choose to argue about the Land of Israel instead of Jesus.

If it seems funny to you it is because you really do not understand what we believe.
We believe the promises given to Abraham are real and we believe what the prophets saw and wrote down are real .
We believe Israel MUST survive .
We believe it is Israel’s job to call back the Messiah , just like Orthodox Jews do.
We believe he is going to pour out his Spirit on Israel (Rouak HaKodesh) when things get really bad (Time of Jacob’s trouble ) and they are going to cry out for him to save them (Baruch haba b’shem Adonai)
We just believe that when Messiah Ben David comes back to save Israel from her enemies he is going to have holes in hands .
You see we believe like the old rabbis did that there was a Messiah Ben Yoseph , that would die for the people and a Messiah Ben David that would rescue the people . We just believe that BOTH are the same but coming at two different times.
Israel will survive .
Thank you for the help.... I sometimes only get it half right ;)
