IN the bible, Iz-rye-ell walked around committing genocide after genocide after genocide after genocide for thousands of years.
They're still doing it today.
Their leaders and kings were all bloodthirsty warmongers.
Their people were savage tricksters.
All the while, God called them wicked and turned His face away from them.
They defected from God over and over and over and over.
Finally, they murdered their Messiah.
Even the bible says Iz-rye-ell lacks Righteousness.
Iz-rye-ell, which followed after the Law of Righteousness, hath not attained to the Law of Righteousness.
Wherefore? Because they sought it not by Faith, but as it were by the works of the law. They stumbled at that stumblingstone.
"Chosen", perhaps, but EVIL indeed.
They have no Righteousness.
Their ways are wicked in the Eyes of God.
They lack Faith.
They live by the sword, usury, and guile.
Even their "holy" people were liars, thieves, murderers, treacherous adulterers...
The people of Iz-rye-ell are FAR from God.
They are evil.
They are bloodstained.
They are genocidal.
Talented, intelligent, hard-working, perhaps, but guileful, heartless, and evil nonetheless.
