Israel: The Blessing or the Curse
A book by John McTernan and Bill Koenig

In the Bible, God speaks to Abraham, father of the Jews and the nation of Israel, and directs him to the land of Canaan:

“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” (Genesis 12:1-3, KJV)

O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones. He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth. Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations; Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac; And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant, Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; (I Chronicles 16:13-18 KJV)

America is now experiencing the consequences (curses) of Middle East policies which have been opposed to God’s Word and to the preservation of His covenant land. Ever since the Madrid Conference ten years ago, this country’s participation in Israel’s destiny has been flawed when put in context of Holy Scripture.

The events of September 11 were a national wake-up call. However, if this nation continues to support the Mitchell Plan, affirming a “land for peace” approach, America can expect to experience the lifting of the Lord’s protective hand in an even greater measure.

It is a fact that Israel’s very existence is in grave danger, because of our nation’s sponsorship of “land for peace” plans which have led her to the brink of war.

What is happening in the world, and especially in the Middle East, these days is truly remarkable. But then again, Bible believers (like yourself) shouldn’t be surprised, because the Old Testament prophet, Zechariah, pre-warned us about these times over 2,500 years ago:

“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.” (Zechariah 12:3 KJV)

“And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.” (Zechariah 12:9 KJV)

The Bible is very clear that our loving and fair God will always warn His people before judgment comes.
