Bible Question:
I am searching for the book and chapter where Israel is notied to rise up and be a powerful nation and those who rise againt her will be "in trouble". I have been looking in the concordance and cannot seem to nail it down. My grandmother and I are in discussion what with the happenings in teh M.E. and this particular subject came up. Thank you.

Bible Answer: Israel was a man, like any other man. Sprang from the same place that all man sprang from. What made him unique was his righteousness. And his loyalty to God. He gave birth to twelve sons. Yet though he was a good and righteous father, some of his sons did not follow his ways. An example was, Simeon, and Levi. Read Genesis 49:5 A nation means nothing to God. He has build nations and then destroy them down because of their corruption. God gave the lands of the wicked people to the righteous people at one time. But today he entrusted all his possessions to Our Lord Jesus Christ. This is his Kingdom. And we are all its citizens. |
