I've been trying to wrestle through my thoughts around Israel this past while. Please be gracious with me as I attempt to hash some of this out with my limited knowledge and flawed nature.

The fact that all this criticism of Israel (the nation state) has become main stream and wide spread over this past while has to make you wonder.

I absolutely don't agree with any war mongering nation states. I don't care what 'side' they are on. That level of violence is antichrist and not in line with His teachings.

I have no idea how many Jews agree with what the nation state is doing, but it's evident the nation has turned its back on God (or is in direct opposition to).

The nation state seems to be one of the most anti Christian nations and have some extremely evil tactics they have been using to destabilize and destroy other cultures. I'm not talking eastern here, but western, and in particular Christian.

From what I understand, under the new covenant, the true Israel becomes the body of believers. The evil nation state has cleverly highjacked the name and deceived many in doing so.

As far as the Jewish people (regardless of where they fall in their ideology), it sounds like the majority will be saved. When I think of some of the atrocities that some Jews are committing, this brings even more Glory to God. We are/were all lost and hostile towards God. The fact that He saves the Jewish people after straying so far from Him, shows us the depth of His love and mercy and brings Him even more glory.

I believe we can disagree with the actions of the nation state, and the Jews who are partaking of the evil, and at the same time continue to pray for them and remember that judgment isn't our place.

Another important thing to keep in mind is that just being Jewish does not insure salvation . The only way to the Father is through Christ. It sounds like most Jews do repent in the end and bend the knee. But this is the only way. Your bloodline does not insure salvation. However, God did make a promise to Israel (the people) and we know His promises can be trusted. I believe most Israeli people will be saved in the end. Don't confuse this with the war mongering nation state.

I'm not sure what is meant by 'all Israel' will be saved in Rom 11:26. Does it mean literally all, or just a large number? Is it Israel, the new body of believers under the new covenant , Israel the people (bloodline) ? I certainly don't believe it is Israel the nation state.

None the less, I recognize my ignorance and lack of wisdom in this. I do believe many of the Jews do end up repenting. Even though many have clearly strayed so far from God at this time.

I'm very new to all this, and I am grateful for the book of Roman's that has helped me soften my feelings towards Israel as a people.

For too long I lumped them in with the nation state and struggled with the actions of the Israeli nation and the Zionist Jews .

I've come to realize I can't trust the information I've been fed, and no longer feel like I can base my judgments off of them.

I was led to believe a lot of Jews were heavily involved in a lot of the dark powers of this world, central banking (the worst), main stream media, Hollywood, etc.

I rest better now that I can accept I won't know the full truth and that's okay. Judgment is up to God. Whoever is behind all of this evil may be able to hide behind deception here at this time. But the Father sees all and knows the truth. None of us escape judgment, and without accepting Christ as our savior, we will be condemned.

I do pray the endless wars, money printing, deception, and covert attacks on human life subside. We know that ultimately God puts an end to all of this. I guess we are really gaining knowledge of good and evil. Let us seek truth with all of our hearts.

Any big blockers on here? I have questions. #asknostr #bitcoin

Is bitcoin core quietly moving to increase the block size? Is it really needed for further adoption? Sounds like lightning isn't proving to be all that was promised. Satoshi's vision was a p2p electronic cash system. Has BTC failed that? Are L2s really the solution? Lots to contemplate. #asknostr #bitcoin

What do you make of Rom 11:26? To me, it sounds like a lot of them come to Christ in the end.

Rom 5:3-5

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Keep going brother. It gets better. Trust God's plan for your life. Use the suffering as a tool to advance in holiness. It's forming your character. The most interesting people I know have been through the roughest shit. I'll pray for you brother. I know that pain all too well

I've struggled with it my whole life too. Finally better these days. It can and will pass. Put your hope in Christ

The katahdin hair sheep have completed their second grazing loop of the pastures at the homestead. This video goes over why to rotational graze and how the sheep are managed.

https://v.nostr.build/PMCNquZIq1Lcj53M.mp4

The sheep are moved every 2-4 days to a fresh paddock to help evenly distribute their impact and fertility as well as break the parasite cycle. Once the paddocks are grazed they are given 30-45 days rest to recover and regrow. Generally the flock is able to graze each paddock 5 times throughout the season. We raise the lamb for our own consumption and to sell for Bitcoin through p2p interactions with Bitcoiners at meetups all across Michigan and surrounding areas.
