Why Did God Choose Jerusalem, Israel? | Biblical Context Explained

The geography of Jerusalem is downright undesirable. And yet with all the negatives, God saw its potential and He chose it to be called His own. It's the same for us. There's nothing desirable about us, yet He says, "You're mine. I want you."

[cmlilley]

Oh, I wish I could go there, but since I probably never will, I am thankful to have these videos to see the Holy Land!

[juliuss]

Amen. Glory to God! As it is written, It is not you who chose Me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my Name, He may give you.

Lord I am not the best. I am a lowly human being. Mighty God I elevate you and decrease myself. Let me be more humble in Jesus name I pray

[ElizabethGonzalez-jctq]

Wow, Thank you for this message.
As I praise The LORD, with the Psalms; when I come across Psalm 87:1-3 NLT
It tells us: "The LORD, Loves the City of Jerusalem, more than any other City in Israel"... I kept wondering Why is that?
So, I thought I better do my research on that.
Thank you, for your message~ 😊

what a privilege it would be to visit this place...

[dennisgraham]

I share everyone else's sentiments. I would love to visit this wonderful city before I die. Though I know I Will see it as it was intended After I die. When we live there with our king and savior.

[denisemay]

I love Israel!! Visited in 2019 and want to go again!!

[PhilChantler]

This makes no sense. Truth is people choose their own (man-made) gods.

[elizabethshaw]

Are we all supposed to live in jerusalem?

[breadoflife]

Who is the Israel of God (Gal 6:16)? It's not the nation of Israel we see today.
Jesus said in Mat_21:43 I say unto you (The nation of Israel according to the flesh) The kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a NATION bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Who is that Nation?
Born Again overcoming Christians Are.
1 Pe_2:9 But ye (Christians) are a chosen generation, a Holy NATION.

I really want to know why god have beef with palestain

[rafaels.]

It is my understanding that the only relevance of Jerusalem is for world domination. The modern AD900+ City of Rome NEVER qualified. Old Rome under the Apostles from Simon Peter came closest AD50-until-399. Therefore ANY place created by the faithful for soul purpose and Utmost Holiness can be dedicated to the ONE-LORD, the Almighty Great Glory, (ABBA, HAYAH, YHWH). All has been revealed to the world since Christ. All who walk in Compassion and Truth in All areas of thought, speech, actions are TRUE Ascendant ones, an "Aloha." Those nations that failed the LORDS test like ISRAEL, with their hypocricy are evident throughout history. SO ALL YOU nations get your acts together. Stop going the way of these modern nations, with your "Trans-gressions" of (-Liberaism, -Humanism, -genderists, Marxist, Fascist, Arians, Aryan, Occultists), philosophies of the flesh. It's closer to the end now than before.
