Nuggets from “Judgment Day: Islam, Israel, and the Nations” by Dave Hunt

In the final analysis, the battle over Israel is a battle for the souls and destiny of mankind. If Islam and the nations siding with her should accomplish their goal of destroying Israel, then mankind is eternally lost. That is how serious this battle is! If the God of the Bible, whose integrity is tied to Israel’s ultimate restoration and blessing, has not told the truth about His chosen people and their destiny, then how could we believe His promises concerning Christ’s payment for our souls’ salvation? Prophecies that are partially true and partially false could not be trusted at all. And no other “God” offers a solution based upon justice.

No matter what happens from day to day in the Middle East, we will all be gone in a few years, just as Arafat, one of the major players in this drama, has already left the earth. The PLO and Israeli conflict is the least of his concerns now. That fact calls our attention to the necessity of preparing for a death that looms ever over our heads and from which no one can escape.

Clearly, where we will spend eternity when we leave this earth and all of is positions, possessions, ambitions, and honors behind ought to be our primary focus. And it is on this very point, the most important of all, that we find the greatest difference between the uncertain hope of the Muslim, who can’t be sure of his destiny, and the Christian, who has absolute confidence that he will be eternally with Christ in heaven. Such is the beauty and promise of the gospel of Jesus Christ—and it is based upon many infallible proofs given to us in prophecy and verified by history. God offers salvation to all who will believe on Christ by their own free choice based upon all the evidence. No one is forced into anything. The true God wants our hearts.

There is a choice to make. “Choose you this day whom ye will serve” (Joshua:24:15And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
See All...). And do not forget God’s command to “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem” (Psalm:122:6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
See All...).
