Palestine. Part-Three.

From Ad57 to 1920 the Arab peoples who lived in this region had no real issues with the Turkish control of that region.

During the Christian Crusades, the autrosouties committed by the Crusaders have not been forgotten to this day by the Muslim world.

Before deluded people claiming to be followers of Jesus, the Jewish Messiah jump up to defend the rights of the mythical Palestinians and their claims today. They first need to account for the Crusades.

World history and events are all tied into God’s plan for His people Israel, which are the Jews and not the doctrines of replacement theology that replaces Israel with the Church. Jesus said it himself  ‘Salvation is from the Jews’. John 4:22.

Palestine. Part-Two.

The origins of the name Palestine.

Prior to AD 57 this land was called by the Jews occupied Israel. After the Jewish revolt at Masada, near to the west-side of the Dead Sea and their defeat. The Roman decided to rid the land of the Jews, they destroyed, the Jewish Temple and the city of Jerusalem. Them Emperor Hadrian had the whole place re-built and dedicated a new temple, naming it Aelia Capitolina. All Jews where thence forbidden to enter this city. Over the three years of the new construction the Romans carried out the worst atrocities against the Jews. After that the Roman renamed the whole region  Syro-Palestina.

We must remember that this land was originally given to Israel by God. Genesis 12:6-7.

Palestine. Part-One.

Is there really such a place and are there really a race known as the Palestinians?

Up to 1948 the Arab peoples who lived in the Holy Lands or what we call today modern Israel, would have described themselves as Egyptians or desert Arabs, Bedouin. But kindly to the British rulers from the fall of the Turkish Otteman Empire in 1919 to 1948 and their occupation of the region, they became jealous of the Jews and encouraged the Arabs to identify themselves with the ancient Philistines. Thus they encouraged division and are continuing to do that to this day with the international idea, that the only solution will be a two state one.

When we come to read the bible, if we believe it?  We will very soon discover that God has other ideas about the land and His promises to His people Israel.  Genesis 24:7, Romans chapters 9-11.

The word Israel is mentioned 1854 times in the whole bible, 1728 times in the Tanakh/Old Testament and 128 time in the New Testament. I was not able to find any references to Palestine, funny that?
