Pope Calls For Peace In Holy Land

Pope Benedict XVI has called for peace between Israel and the Palestinians, according to Ynetnews.

I think that is a brilliant initiative, and I pray for peace in the whole world.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday peace prospects with the Palestinians are now looking poor.

I agree, but things can change.

God has promised the land of Israel to the Jews, according to Acts 1:6, and God doesn't take back His gifts, according to Romans 11:29.

But there is also an equal promise to the Greeks and the Christians concerning the Church, because there is no difference between the Greek and the Jew, according to Romans 10:12.

But there will be more blood around the Church than around Israel.

The Church is also spiritual Israel.

The Old Testament Septuagint text in Greek was established a couple of hundred years before the Hebrew canon, and it has been the Bible of the Church for 2.000 years.

The Latin language is derived from both the Greek and the Hebrew, and is very important and sacred for the common man, in the same way as Greek is the language of the Church.

The Church is for ever and the gates of hell will never prevail against it, see Matthew 16:18.

Christian Orthodoxy has kept the true Christian faith.

Constantinople is the eternal capital of the Church, in the same way Jerusalem is the capital of the Jews, see Revelation 20:9.

The fight for Constantinople, when the Vatican is gone, will be the bloodiest battle in history.

All our prayers are indeed needed, and not only for the Holy Land, but also for the Church of Christ.
