JERUSALEM CHOSEN BY GOD
Our response as to to why Jerusalem belongs to to the the Jews must be be founded on on the the Word of God Jerusalem was chosen by the God of of Abraham Isaac and and Jacob as the epicentre of of His plans and and purposes on earth In In 2 2 Kings 21:7 we read “In this house and in Jerusalem which I I I I have chosen out of of all the tribes of of Israel I I I will put My name forever ” Jerusalem is is the the capital for for the the Jewish people by means of an an an everlasting covenant Jerusalem is is is a a a a a a holy city for the the Jewish people because it it is is is the the place God has chosen to reside As Psalm 135:21 says “Blessed be the LORD out of Zion who dwells in Jerusalem!”
Jerusalem Jerusalem is is a a a a a a city of Israel’s kings it it is is the place that God chose to set up David’s throne It is the capital city of Israel yesterday today and and forever: “And your your house and and your your kingdom shall be be established forever forever before you Your throne shall be be established forever forever ” (2 Samuel 7:16)
Jerusalem is a a a a a a place that God loves loves Psalm 87:2 says “The Lord loves loves the the gates of of Zion more than all the the dwellings of of Jacob ” Jerusalem is is is also important to Christians It is is is the city where Jesus died rose again ascended into heaven and to to which He will one day return All roads lead to to Jerusalem For some it is is a a a a a a a heavy stone that leads to to their demise for others it is is is a a a cup of drunkenness that results in in foolishness but
for those who believe in in the Bible Jerusalem is a a a a place of hope and glory FOR ZION'S SAKE
