Israel – Select Quotes

CB015977

As nothing can grow without the dust of the soil, so the nations cannot exist without Israel, through whom they receive their blessing.  As sand mixed in bread injures the teeth, so those who persecute Israel suffer for it.  As sand cannot be burned in fire, but turns into glass, so Israel cannot be consumed in the fire of Gehenna, but emerges stronger from Purgatory.
~ Talmud, Pesikta Rabbati, 11, 5

I know, I know. We are Your chosen people. But, once in a while, can’t You choose someone else?
~ Tevye to God in Fiddler on the Roof

Is Islam Opposed To Democracy?

Ergun Caner and Emir Caner address Islamic belief and practice, specifically its relationship to democracy.

Ergun Caner is the President of Liberty Theological Seminary at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. When Caner was named to the position in 2005, he became the first former Muslim to become the leader of an evangelical seminary.

Emir Caner is dean of The College at Southwestern (TCS) on the campus of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, the largest seminary in the world.

Ergun and Emir were raised the sons of an Islamic leader until they were converted to Christ. Due to this decision, they were disowned by their father.

Epicenter: The Middle East

Historical perspective, political and current event analysis, personal memoir, and Biblical exegesis; — what’s not to like?
