A Puritan Take on Israel

Kingdom Polemics

In this episode, Pastor Aldo Leon and Pastor Edwin Ramirez discuss the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas from a biblical and covenantal perspective. They explore the historical and theological roots of the tension, the role of God's judgment and mercy, and the implications for Christians today. They also challenge some common misconceptions and assumptions about Israel and the Middle East.

• The conflict between Israel and Hamas is not a recent phenomenon, but a result of God's prophecy and judgment on Abraham's descendants through Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 16:11-12).
• Israel is still under covenant curses for rejecting their Messiah, Jesus Christ, and calling his blood upon themselves (Matthew 21:42-44, 27:24-25).
• God still has covenant purposes for Israel, but they will not be fulfilled until Israel embraces the new covenant in Christ and repents of their crucifixion of him (Romans 11:25-27, Matthew 23:37-39).
• Christians should not have a simplistic or sentimental view of Israel, but a biblical and covenantal one that recognizes God's sovereignty, justice, and grace in history.

Listen to this episode to reframe your view of what really is transpiring in the middle east.
