I don’t know how many have online access at this point in any area of Israel or Gaza, but if you do then read and share this with as many as you can. I love my Jewish brothers and sisters even before I found the slight ancestry link, but I want to encourage you to call out to Jesus Christ in this time of trial since HE IS YOUR MESSIAH! I also want Ishmael’s line to have a chance to know Jesus Christ as Savior too. While some Americans and even Christians have acted from fear or hatred to either or both of your groups, Jesus Christ still came to SAVE ALL GROUPS POSSIBLE! Any other human following any other religion has the opportunity NOW to call on Jesus Christ by accepting that He shed His blood on the Cross of Calvary FOR YOU. No matter what you have done, JESUS CHRIST CAN SAVE YOU… ANY OF YOU!
That probably sounds like an easy out if you have done really bad things to a lot of people. It does, but it still is true. Jesus Christ knocked Saul off of his donkey after Saul had been killing Christians as a Jewish leader. Talk about a really BAD background for becoming the Apostle to reach the Gentiles! He still did, and he gave his life for doing it. It might mean your own life if you do accept Jesus Christ as Savior, but there is a promise that you will reach Heaven. No matter where you are right now or what you’ve done before, you CAN be Saved if you repent from your sins, ask Jesus Christ to forgive you, and then turn away from the bad things you have done. I know turning from a prior belief can be scary, but I have studied various religions for forty years and believe Jesus Christ IS the ONLY answer for ALL of us.
Christians need to pray for others to known Jesus Christ and for safety. Jews, Muslims, or those with other beliefs, please call to Jesus Christ for soul Salvation through Him alone and then begin to pray for safety. From my understanding, any other religion but radicalized jihad that Hamas or Hezbollah support will have you be killed as an infidel, but belief in Jesus Christ can possibly help you to find a way to get to safety if at all possible. It is now after 2am in Ohio, and Egypt is now allowing those from Gaza to get through to safety, so please seek evacuation and keep praying for the ones still held hostage in Gaza. I know this situation has to be terrifying to all in Israel and Gaza. My prayers for ALL of you will keep being given during this. I can only hope and pray that at least one of you will read this and call on Jesus Christ for help.
If you are ready to let Jesus Christ come into your heart to become His, please pray: “Gracious Heavenly Father of Creation, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ. I believe that Jesus came as Your Only Begotten Son, was born without sin, lived a sinless life, died on the Cross in my place for my sins, was buried, rose again after the third day, was taken up to Heaven where He is praying over me, and sent His Holy Spirit to be with me now. Forgive me of all my sins, give me a new life as Yours, and help me to help others to know You too. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen.” If you have prayed this and believe then you are now SAVED BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST.
