Dimona nuclear plant in the southern Negev desert of Israel. (Alphabetics) In a stunning move the Obama administration released 1987 report on Israel’s top secret nuclear program. Israel National News reported: Obama revenge for Netanyahu’s Congress talk? 1987 report on Israel’s top secret nuclear program released in unprecedented move. In a development that has largely been missed by mainstream media, the Pentagon early last month quietly declassified a Department of Defense top- secret document detailing Israel’s nuclear program, a highly covert topic that Israel has never formally announced to avoid a regional nuclear arms race, and which the US until now has respected by remaining silent. But by publishing the declassified document from 1987, the US reportedly breached the silent agreement to keep quiet on Israel’s nuclear powers for the first time ever, detailing the nuclear program in great depth. The timing of the revelation is highly suspect, given that it came as tensions spiraled out of control between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama ahead of Netanyahu’s March 3 address in Congress, in which he warned against the dangers of Iran’s nuclear program and how the deal being formed on that program leaves the Islamic regime with nuclear breakout capabilities. The Hamas terrorist organization admitted last year that they attempted to hit the nuclear reactor in Dimona, Israel. The Obama administration just made things easier for Israel’s enemies.

Of course!! Obama the Muslim is hell bent for Iran to have nuclear capability, and this will be a favor to his main handler Valarie Jarrett, who is from Iran. I guess the muslim in chief thinks this will help justify him paving the way for Iran to get their own nukes. Anyone with 2 brain cells should be wondering why this muslim POS is so hell bent on Iran getting nukes.
God has made a covenant with Israel and it is He who will destroy the Muslims when they attack Israel.
That covenant no longer applies to Jews but to the Church in Jesus.
Replacement Theology is false. As one rebuttal, read the Book of Romans.
Replacement Theology is false. As one rebuttal, read the Book of Romans. Says who? Protestants? In any case replacement theology is the wrong word for it - the NT alludes to a grafted branch. The root of the vine exists but produces no fruit or bitter fruit on the atrophied vine. See Vic's explanation at #12.
Well, the Holy Bible tells us so. The verse regarding the grafting in doesn't say the Jews were grafted out. It simply means that another branch was added. Did you know that the Book of Romans tells us that the nation of Israel will be saved as God's Covenant with Israel promised. Also, the Holy Bible tells us that God states that anyone who blesses Israel will be blessed and anyone who condemns Israel will be condemned. It doesn't say the same thing about the Muslims. The Bible does say that God will destroy the Islamic Armies in the last days when they attack Israel. Replacement Theology simply means that the Christians have replaced the Jews in God's Covenant with the Jews. Do you want to talk about God's plans for Israel and the Christians during the 1,000 years reign following the Tribulation period?
Islam is not mentioned in the bible at all. In any case, Orthodox Christians of the east have no terminology for "replacement aka suppression theology" this is an argument with concepts that Western Christians argue over that are not applicable to eastern Christians. The Church is the continuation of Israel and now includes ALL people. It goes beyond what it was; it does not replace what was before. John 10:16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. Isaiah 56:8 The Sovereign LORD declares-- he who gathers the exiles of Israel: "I will gather still others to them besides those already gathered. Romans 11:25 I want you to understand this mystery, dear brothers and sisters, so that you will not feel proud about yourselves. Some of the people of Israel have hard hearts, but this will last only until the full number of Gentiles comes to Christ. It further gets complicated when God America's Christian Zionist use this concept to support their war views. In fact, I find the views of Orthodox Jews to be the best refutation of Christian Zionism (Zionism itself being an athiest secular Jewish idea) in that they declare that it was forbidden for the Jews to reconstitute Jewish rule in the Land of Israel before the arrival of the Messiah. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haredim_and_Zionism
The Church is the continuation of Israel? If you mean that tree includes Israel and the Christians, you are correct.
“A man planted a vineyard, rented it to some farmers and went away for a long time. At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. He sent another servant, but that one also they beat and treated shamefully and sent away empty-handed. He sent still a third, and they wounded him and threw him out. Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my son, whom I love; perhaps they will respect him.’ But when the tenants saw him, they talked the matter over. ‘This is the heir,’ they said. ‘Let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. When the people heard this, they said, “God forbid!” Jesus looked directly at them and asked, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’? Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.” - Jesus (Luke 20) “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, beat him and sent him away empty-handed. Then he sent another servant to them; they struck this man on the head and treated him shamefully. He sent still another, and that one they killed. He sent many others; some of them they beat, others they killed. He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. Haven’t you read this passage of Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?” - Jesus (Mark 12) However, if you do not obey the Lord your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come on you and overtake you: You will be cursed in the city and cursed in the country. Your basket and your kneading trough will be cursed. The fruit of your womb will be cursed, and the crops of your land, and the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks. You will be cursed when you come in and cursed when you go out. The Lord will send on you curses, confusion and rebuke in everything you put your hand to, until you are destroyed and come to sudden ruin because of the evil you have done in forsaking him. The Lord will plague you with diseases until he has destroyed you from the land you are entering to possess. The Lord will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, with blight and mildew, which will plague you until you perish. The sky over your head will be bronze, the ground beneath you iron. The Lord will turn the rain of your country into dust and powder; it will come down from the skies until you are destroyed. The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You will come at them from one direction but flee from them in seven, and you will become a thing of horror to all the kingdoms on earth. 26 Your carcasses will be food for all the birds and the wild animals, and there will be no one to frighten them away. The Lord will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors, festering sores and the itch, from which you cannot be cured. The Lord will afflict you with madness, blindness and confusion of mind. At midday you will grope about like a blind person in the dark. You will be unsuccessful in everything you do; day after day you will be oppressed and robbed, with no one to rescue you. You will be pledged to be married to a woman, but another will take her and rape her. You will build a house, but you will not live in it. You will plant a vineyard, but you will not even begin to enjoy its fruit. 31 Your ox will be slaughtered before your eyes, but you will eat none of it. Your donkey will be forcibly taken from you and will not be returned. Your sheep will be given to your enemies, and no one will rescue them. 32 Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation, and you will wear out your eyes watching for them day after day, powerless to lift a hand. A people that you do not know will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days. 34 The sights you see will drive you mad. 35 The Lord will afflict your knees and legs with painful boils that cannot be cured, spreading from the soles of your feet to the top of your head. The Lord will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation unknown to you or your ancestors. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood and stone. You will become a thing of horror, a byword and an object of ridicule among all the peoples where the Lord will drive you. You will sow much seed in the field but you will harvest little, because locusts will devour it. 39 You will plant vineyards and cultivate them but you will not drink the wine or gather the grapes, because worms will eat them. You will have olive trees throughout your country but you will not use the oil, because the olives will drop off. You will have sons and daughters but you will not keep them, because they will go into captivity. 42 Swarms of locusts will take over all your trees and the crops of your land. The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower. They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, but you will be the tail. All these curses will come on you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the Lord your God and observe the commands and decrees he gave you. They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever. Because you did not serve the Lord your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity, 48 therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the Lord sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you. The Lord will bring a nation against you from far away, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down, a nation whose language you will not understand, a fierce-looking nation without respect for the old or pity for the young. They will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or olive oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined. 52 They will lay siege to all the cities throughout your land until the high fortified walls in which you trust fall down. They will besiege all the cities throughout the land the Lord your God is giving you. Because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the Lord your God has given you. Even the most gentle and sensitive man among you will have no compassion on his own brother or the wife he loves or his surviving children, and he will not give to one of them any of the flesh of his children that he is eating. It will be all he has left because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege of all your cities. The most gentle and sensitive woman among you—so sensitive and gentle that she would not venture to touch the ground with the sole of her foot—will begrudge the husband she loves and her own son or daughter the afterbirth from her womb and the children she bears. For in her dire need she intends to eat them secretly because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege of your cities. If you do not carefully follow all the words of this law, which are written in this book, and do not revere this glorious and awesome name—the Lord your God— the Lord will send fearful plagues on you and your descendants, harsh and prolonged disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses. He will bring on you all the diseases of Egypt that you dreaded, and they will cling to you. The Lord will also bring on you every kind of sickness and disaster not recorded in this Book of the Law, until you are destroyed. You who were as numerous as the stars in the sky will be left but few in number, because you did not obey the Lord your God. Just as it pleased the Lord to make you prosper and increase in number, so it will please him to ruin and destroy you. You will be uprooted from the land you are entering to possess. Then the Lord will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods—gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your ancestors have known. Among those nations you will find no repose, no resting place for the sole of your foot. There the Lord will give you an anxious mind, eyes weary with longing, and a despairing heart. You will live in constant suspense, filled with dread both night and day, never sure of your life. In the morning you will say, “If only it were evening!” and in the evening, “If only it were morning!”—because of the terror that will fill your hearts and the sights that your eyes will see. The Lord will send you back in ships to Egypt on a journey I said you should never make again. There you will offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you. - Deuteronomy 28 "The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it. ... When evening came, Jesus and his disciples[e] went out of the city. In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!” - Mark 11 ”May you never bear fruit again!” Immediately the tree withered. - Jesus (Matthew 21:13) "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’" - Jesus (Matt 23) The covenants with Noah, Abraham and Ishmael were unconditional, and their terms remain. The covenant with the Hebrews at Sinai was always conditional. Deuteronomy 28 spells out the terms of destruction if the Hebrews DON'T keep God's law. They did not. Jesus pronounces the final sentence in the week that he proclaims the new covenant. And he says to Jewish Jerusalem: YOU WILL NOT SEE ME AGAIN UNTIL YOU SAY 'BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD.' It's over. The Sinai covenant IS in force, insofar as the condemnation to destruction contained within it, elaborated in Deuteronomy 28, was carried out when God destroyed the Temple. The tenants were thrown out of the vineyard and it was given over to others, because they killed the Son of the owner. So God offered a NEW covenant, to the whole world. “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come. Then he sent some more servants and said, ‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner: My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.’ But they paid no attention and went off—one to his field, another to his business. 6 The rest seized his servants, mistreated them and killed them. The king was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’ So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests." - Jesus Matthew 22. "It is finished." - Jesus, on the Cross, just before his death. It is FINISHED. The Covenant of Sinai cannot be resurrected. The Temple is gone. The priestly line is gone and cannot be identified. All is gone. The vineyard was trampled down by God and handed over to others. The original invitees did not come to the feast, so the Master destroyed their city and invited new guests. That's the way of it. Isaac and Ishmael live in the land, as promised, and they fight, as promised. And the key to peace lies only in the Son of God and his new covenant. The convenant of Sinai cannot be followed even if one wants to. God removed certain preconditions necessary to make it POSSIBLE to follow it. Now, it's Jesus or it's nothing.
Eschatology seems to be the most divisive subject among Christians. I'm speaking mainly from a Protestant/Baptist/Evangelical perspective. That says something. I am also familiar with Catholic views and they are as numerous as the Protestant views. My Catholic family members are more dispensational than I am which surprised me a bit. I have seen views like Vics as well which is more of a traditional millennial view. Meaning you see a physical kingdom after Christ returns but it is the church. My point is even in the Catholic church there is not one infallible interpretation of future prophecy fulfillment other than what is addressed in creed with the physical second coming of Christ and His eternal Kingdom. The CCC gives Catholics wide latitude on personal views of eschatology as long as they keep to the creed and councils. Every Christian agrees on that with the exception of a small minority called full preterism. Don, I don't believe from his comments in the past believes the Bible tells us to engage in endless wars for or with Israel and base our foreign policy on a theological theory. He has stated the Abrahamic covenant is not conditional and we are to bless and pray for the physical descendants of Abraham with the promise. As we are to pray for the grafted in spiritual descendants through Christ. If I have the views accurate let me know and we can proceed and then I will offer my thoughts. I would caution straw men abound in these discussions and recommend we avoid them. Thanks.
