Whenever God does something to push forward His plan to bring full restoration and final redemption to Israel, the central question set before Christians is what they will do with the Jewish people who are the visible remnant of Israel. That question came before Christians in Europe and North America during the Shoa (Holocaust) and the rebirth of the Jewish State of Israel. As Laura Densmore of Bridge Connector Ministries explains, Christians then had to choose whether to help Jews through the extreme trials of that era, or stand aside or even help those who sought to hinder God’s plans by seeking the destruction of the Jewish people. In this concluding part of our conversation, Laura talks about the lessons of the past and shares ideas about how to do the right thing regarding Israel today.
Like everything else in life, our actions and attitudes toward the Jewish people are expressions of what is in our hearts. That’s what Barry Phillips and David Jones discuss in their midrash called, “Motives.” Only God can look into our hearts and assess our true motives, which is why we should make it a priority to get close to Him. That’s what we hear in the music of the Exodus Road Band.
