Defeat must not be an option, because it could mean the end of the State of Israel. And what would that say about God?
By: Aviel Schneider – Israel Today; israeltoday.co.il
No other nation represents and defends God’s existence and glory like the chosen people in the Holy Land. So I say: Israel and God need each other. Israel is an instrument of God on this earth because Israel’s existence in the Promised Land confirms God’s existence. Defeating Israel, in the minds of our enemies, also means defeating the God of Israel. Therefore, if Israel loses this war, God loses with it. Of course, such a statement makes no sense to people who have nothing to do with God, faith and the Bible. Many of you might also disagree with me – and that’s okay.
Which god is greater?
With every dead Israeli, the Palestinian terrorists shouted “Allah hu Akhbar.” Most videos from the October 7 massacres are accompanied by the constant war cry of “Allah is greatest.” Over the last four months, I have seen endless clips taken by Hamas terrorists with their GoPro cameras. Their God, their Allah is greater than the God of Israel, they think, and that is why Muslims loudly proclaim “Allah hu Akhbar” at the sight of every Jewish corpse.
Isn’t that a victory cry? Isn’t this a call to war against the God of Israel? It was not the image of God that was taken away from us in these four months, but the image of being Israel (the people of Israel) that was torn away from us. We are no longer the same people. We are no longer the same Israelis. The national ethos that has defined us in our eyes is dissolving. Everything we imagined went up in flames before our eyes. Terms such as “superpower,” “security,” “deterrence strategy” or “invincible”–terms that we rested on–have disappeared. And these are not just my private feelings, but a summary of the emotional situation around me.
