This message concludes the vital "Why Israel?" series. Through faithful expositional preaching, Burnie Lund makes a compelling case for unwavering Christian and Western support for the nation of Israel, grounded in both enduring biblical promises and secular legal rights. This sermon directly addresses controversial questions about Israel's legitimacy, the misuse of terms like "genocide" and "apartheid," and the clear prophetic role that Israel holds in God's future plan. Learn how your faith compels you to stand with God's chosen people and secure your place on the winning side of God's prophetic calendar.
