Israel is God’s Witness to the World
The Jews – God’s Witnesses

Whatever we may think of the nation of Israel and its actions among the nations of the world today, there is no denying the fact that Israel and the Jews have a primary role in the plan and purpose of God.

In other words, God is needed to explain its existence.
