It\u2019s important to also look at the actual cause of the war,\u201d the senior pastor said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know that there are those who say they found Israel somehow dragged the United States into it. What I will say to you is very simple. Do you know for how long Israel has been fighting for its own existence?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s assume you\u2019re right. What would you have done if you had Iran declaring \u2018you have no right to exist,\u2019 and you\u2019re a small country like Israel, and they are developing nuclear weapons and every day announcing if they had a chance, they\u2019ll wipe you out of existence?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re going to wait till they try it? So the more they talk about Israel is responsible for it, I think they\u2019re making Israel look good actually while trying to make them look bad. Because they have to fight for their existence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo nation has been so threatened like Israel has, and the land space they occupy is so small. If the other nations are so interested in the Palestinian people, why don\u2019t they give them a place to stay?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe land is so small and you want them to be destroyed. And several attempts in history have been made to completely annihilate them. Is that a good thing?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour hatred, your personal hatred for the Jews, is satanic. Now you realize that the better view is devilish. Why do all the other nations have a right to exist?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven Israel says they don\u2019t have a problem with the Palestinians staying where they are, but they cannot allow them to become a nation running their own stuff, because they will open the doors for all the enemy nations who don\u2019t want Israel to exist, because they have a right to let them come in then, and that will be the end of Israel, because they continue to say they\u2019re going to so they say, we can allow you offers, but make no mistakes about it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Bible cannot lie. At the end of all the nations, Israel continues to exist. It\u2019s in the book. So debate all you want it\u2019s in the Bible that Israel will see the end of all its enemies. Its in the book. So no matter what your your school of thought is no matter what your argument is, it\u2019s no use following the foolish argument.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod is wiser than men, and if God chose that, that\u2019s the way it\u2019s going to be, you better line up with his thoughts, or else you\u2019re a fool. See, it takes foolishness to go against God. He chose that? That\u2019s what he wanted. For example, you can argue about Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy should Jesus come from a Jewish nation? Why should Jesus have been a Jew? Why should the Savior come from there? He decided to it was up to him to bring up a savior, Jesus, Christ. That was his plan. Are you wiser than God? Who do you think you are? Humble yourself and learn from the Book of Wisdom, the word of God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
