1 | The peace of Jerusalem? | Ps 122:6 | DocTrinsograce | 157299 | ||
Hi, Momma.. Depends on your theological perspective. A dispensationalist sees something in the earthly nation of Israel that I do not find warranted in Scripture. Without Christ, the average Israeli is in the same fix as the average Chinese: lost. In Him, Doc |

2 | The peace of Jerusalem? | Ps 122:6 | Mommapbs | 157300 | ||
Oh my, my dispensationalist upbringing is rearing its head here I guess! But I'm teachable . . . so when one prays for the peace of Jerusalem, we pray for Christ to reveal Himself to that nation? Hence one would be praying for the Second Coming of Christ? Thanks for your insight Doc! mommapbs |

Dear Momma, No, one prays for Israel as we pray for all other nations: that they would be saved. We are to pray for the laborers who preach the gospel to them. We are to pray that God would divinely intervene, granting them saving faith. In Him, Doc |

Greetings Doc: To elaborate on what you have posted, it seems to me that when we pray for the "peace of Jerusalem", we are praying not for a people group, nation, program, or process; we are praying for a Person, the Prince of Peace, Jesus. That He would be revealed, magnified and glorified; thus given first priority in our lives and in the lives of others. Can two walk together unless they be agreed? Come quickly Lord Jesus! Blessings on your day! mommapbs |
