Here are scriptures that speak to the debates of our times.
“Remember that Christ came as a servant to the Jews to show that God is true to the promises he made to their ancestors. He also came so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercies to them. That is what the psalmist meant when he wrote:
“For this, I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing praises to your name.” And in another place it is written “Rejoice with his people, you Gentiles.” And yet again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles.
  Praise him, all you people of the earth.”
And in another place Isaiah said, The heir to David’s throne will come, and he will rule over the Gentiles.
They will place their hope on him.” I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.”
Romans 15: 8-13 (NLT). #Christians #Jews #Jesus #Israel

I take much comfort in these verses. What about you? How has God been faithful to you when the enemy came in like a flood?
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.”
Isaiah 61: 1-3 (NIV).
