How does God view the diplomatic process that has Israel relinquishing control of territory in exchange for peace or, at least, for an end to military hostility from the recipient of that land? Do we know? Can we know?
Surely, if we were certain about how He sees it, we would have no doubts as to what our view should be? For what God-fearing person would champion a position contrary to His? Doing so would put us in opposition to the LORD we say we love; we’d be warring against Him, in fact. That’s something to consider for a minute.
I’m going to approach this subject by explaining the genesis and evolution of the term, Land-for-Peace. I will spell out how I believe God sees it, based on the Bible. And I will briefly discuss where this process could be taking Israel as we enter 2023.
What’s in a name?
It is notable that the original term, Land-for-Peace, appeared in relation to an agreement – UN Resolution 242 – signed...

Nothing more to say….well done….spot on.
Shalom,
Achi Stan, excellent piece, Land for Peace has never worked, nor will it work! I can only answer for myself, but NO, Followers of Yeshua should never support Yisrael giving up another square inch!
Bill Koenig has a book entitled “Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel,” an excellent read for those who have not read it….
Brachot….
Israel must not compromise. The whole country is and remains Israel’s eternal inheritance from God’s side. The peace of Israel depends on its obedience to God’s Word.
Excellent article land for peace has not worked and will not work! It is not G-ds plan. I pray through your article more people will understand this.
Excellent article exposing the liars assisted by their Father of lies. Almighty God is on the throne of His universe. He looks at this little plot of land and say’s “that’s mine” and if you play around with it, you will have to deal with me.! Biden, Putin, Ayatollah, Arafat et al… God is working out His purposes and satan and his blinded emissaries will meet their just end in the fullness of time. This article should be published abroad. I know I will be sharing it.
great point friend !!
Stan,
Keep speaking in the likeness of Isaiah 40:3:
A voice cries out in the wilderness,
“Prepare the way of Adonai,
Make straight in the desert
a highway for our God.”
Well Done!!
Thank you ????. This is an article that’s well written and worth keeping for future references.
To know God is to know Israel
Amen! All of Israel is the the Lord’s. There cannot be two states – as you say, the Palestinians have no connection to the land.
Unbelievable that Christians have fallen for the lie, but it is true – so many have never read the whole Bible and fall for the lies of the enemy.
Come, Prince of Peace, deliver your people and claim your land!
