Is Jerusalem the Capital of Israel?

The recent announcement by the president of the United States recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel—a signal to start the process of moving the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem— has caused us all to ponder the question of Jerusalem more carefully.

Bearing in mind that as believers we need to see all of life’s issues through the lens of the Bible and our relationship with God through the Messiah Jesus?… perhaps a better way to ask the Jerusalem question might be, “Does the Bible teach that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel?”

Can Palestinians Love Israel?
These two do:

Sami Abbasi

Sami Abbasi squinted through the railing of a first-story balcony in an 
  abandoned building on Gaza City’s Salah al-Din Road. The IDF Jeep 
  approached like a dog sniffing its environment, looking for trouble. They are dogs, and if they’re looking for trouble, I’ll give it to them, he mused. The thirteen-year-old Palestinian rolled a baseball-sized rock in his right hand, estimating the distance to the approaching Israelis. To bolster his resolve, he counted to three and then heaved the stone. The missile scored a direct hit, smashing the windshield. Sami rewarded himself with a fist pump, launched his body over the railing to the ground several feet below, and dashed toward the outdoor market a block away. I hate those dirty Jews! I can’t wait to kill one someday.

Aminah

Aminah* was raised in a devout Muslim family and from a very young age 
  she was taught to despise the Jewish people and that Israel belongs to 
  the Palestinians. Just the image of the Star of David and the word Zionist would fill her heart with hate.

At the tender age of 8, Aminah witnessed unspeakable atrocities, such as a public beheading and the stoning of a woman. As she held her father’s hand and watched in horror, he told her that this is what would happen if she did not please Allah. So, Aminah certainly feared a God like that and wanted to please him. The God of Islam scared her to death!

Those who bless them will be blessed in return! A steadfast promise from God Almighty!! #whyisupportisrael

Israel is God’s land and the Jews are God’s chosen people. We are to support and love Israel always! When Messiah returns, he’s coming back to Israel. #whyisupportisrael

It is written that those who support Israel, God will bless; those who oppose Israel, God will oppose. God chose the children of Abraham to be His people. As a Gentile, I am adopted by God into His family by Grace. Should I then offend His children? #whyisupportisrael

I think it’s a spiritual thing. I have been a Christian most of my life and cannot remember a time when I was not drawn to Israel and it’s people. Israel is my heart! #whyisupportisrael

I love and support Israel because God chose them as His special people through whom I have my salvation. This, in no way, means that I am less loved by God. #whyisupportisrael

I support Israel because it’s the right and moral thing to do! I could not call myself a Christian otherwise. #whyisupportisrael
