#Israel is at the center of our news, but what news does God give to us concerning Israel?  Ezekiel 28:25,26 “The LORD GOD SAID; ‘When I SHALL GATHER THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL  from the people among whom they are scattered, and sanctify them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.  They shall dwell safely therein, and build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and THEY SHALL KNOW THAT I AM THE LORD THEIR GOD.”  I believe the Bible.  Do You?  Paul was telling us in 1Timothy 6 to hold on to eternal life; fight the good fight of faith and profess Christ Jesus before many witnesses.  v.17″Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the LIVING GOD who gives us richly all things to enjoy; that they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give to the needy; laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.”  Isaiah 40:10,11 “Behold the LORD GOD WILL COME WITH STRONG HAND, AND HIS ARM SHALL RULE FOR HIM;  behold, HIS REWARD IS WITH HIM, and HIS WORK BEFORE HIM.  He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: HE SHALL GATHER THE LAMBS WITH HIS ARM, and carry them in His bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young”
