‘Evil on Another Level’: Greg Laurie Explains Satanic Roots of Israel Hamas Chaos
Pastor Greg Laurie of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, decrying the “shocking and horrifying” scenes coming out of Israel after Hamas’ deadly terror attack. “To see these images of civilians being targeted, women … even elderly people who have survived the Holocaust, and then children — most recently, hearing about babies that were murdered and decapitated,” Laurie said. “This is evil on another level.”
The pastor, whose story was recently told in the feature film “Jesus Revolution,” pushed back on claims Israel is “occupying” or “colonizing” the land, proclaiming, “God gave the land to the people of Israel” and said the Jews wish to “live in peace.” Yet he said Hamas and other terror groups seek Israel’s total destruction, making it difficult to negotiate or come to an agreement.
“Hamas has said repeatedly, publicly, ‘We want to wipe Israel off the face of the map,'” Laurie said. “It’s pretty hard to negotiate with that kind of mentality.” The level of depravity and atrocity, he said, hasn’t been seen since the Nazis during World War II.
When asked why the Jewish people have historically faced so much persecution, Laurie said the battle is spiritual in nature. “Satan hates what God loves,” he said. “God loves and chose the Jewish people. [In] the Book of Deuteronomy, the Lord explains even why he says, ‘I didn’t choose you because you were more than other nations. You were fewer. I chose you because I loved you.'”
Laurie also discussed Israel and the end times, exploring relations between Russia, Iran, and what the Prophet Ezekiel prophesies on the matter.
