Listen to this blog.
The snake then spewed out water like a river to sweep the woman away. But the earth helped her and swallowed the water that had come from the dragon’s mouth. This made the dragon terribly angry with the woman. So it started a war against the rest of her children. They are the people who obey God and are faithful to what Jesus did and taught.
Revelation 12:15-17
Many Christians ignore the common heritage that they have with Jews. Don't forget Jesus was a Jew. It was the Jews who first heard the message of the Gospel. God has specially blessed and disciplined the Jewish nation all the way down to this day. Don't be confused, the only way to be saved is to accept the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. That is true for people who are born to devout Christian parents as well. Unless you accept Jesus you will be lost!
But the Jewish nation has had and still has a special place in the course of history. It does not make sense that the Jews are back in Israel and that they are surrounded by those who want more than anything else to drive them into the sea! The intensity of hatred for the Jews is really quite telling.
Remember that nations are not saved or lost, only men and women individually receive the benefit of the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. But nations do play a role in the divinely orchestrated history of this world. And don't forget Satan wants to destroy Jews and Christians.
So if you find yourself sharing a prison cell with a Jew, count it a privilege and don't forget to tell him that Jesus is the Messiah!
