Here is a very interesting perspective of Israel and Gaza, against the backdrop of Jesus and Barabbas. Bystanders at the crucifixion of Jesus chanted for Barabbas’ release…just as those on the sidelines today chant for Gaza’s release from their atrocities.
Stop to contemplate this striking parallel described by an IDF soldier:
Where are you going to stand? What choices will you make regarding Israel?
Looking for the Blessed Hope 
I strongly support Israel and the IDF in line with my uncompromising faith in the Lord.
Amen to that! Thanks for your comment.
