Antisemitism is a serious, deep-reaching issue today—and it’s closer to you than you may think. Ty Perry, assistant to The Friends of Israel’s director of North American Ministries, covers real-life instances of antisemitism taking place today in his regular column ALERT (Antisemitism: The Longest-Enduring Racial Trauma) in Israel My Glory magazine. He joins Chris this week to share his expertise …
Why is antisemitism dismissed in a way that other forms of racism are not? What makes hatred of the Jewish people so palatable? This week, David Bernstein, founder of the Jewish Institute for Liberal Values, speaks about the growth of global antisemitism. His analysis of the role of politics in antisemitism from college campuses to city streets will help you …
Last week we studied examples from Jesus’ life that demonstrate that He was undeniably a Zionist who understood the inextricable link between the Jewish people and the land of Israel. But after Jesus’ death and resurrection, did that special connection become irrelevant? Is Jesus still a Zionist today? Chris finds the answer by taking a look at the disciples’ final …
Anti-Zionism is spreading throughout the world. Recently, college campuses have become hotbeds for this form of antisemitism, as protesters against Israel chant, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free.” But the land from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea is the nation of Israel’s. The fierce wave of criticism against Zionists, those who support the Jewish …
God gave Israel special gifts and a special calling. They set Israel apart from the other nations of the world, serving as distinct marks of its unique status as God’s chosen nation. He has given the Jewish people covenants, promises, law, patriarchs, worship, and the Messiah Jesus—a blessing we have received and for which we are indebted to Israel. And …
Why do you support Israel? Maybe you support its democratic policies that make it stand out from the rest of the Middle East. If you know your Bible, you might point to a passage like Genesis 12:1–3 as your reason, wanting to honor God’s command to bless the nation. But this week we’ll consider Romans 11:28–29, a short passage Paul …
Christians have shared an important friendship with Israel throughout history. But as a whole, that relationship is starting to crack. A recent study found an increasing number of young evangelical Christians are no longer supporting Israel because of its dispute with the Palestinians. How can we support Israel when so many other believers have begun to abandon the Jewish state? …
Christian Zionism is our passionate belief today, but this movement started long before us. Looking back in American history we can see a precedent set forth by many presidents: a desire to see national Israel restored. Miraculously, the world witnessed this come to pass in 1948, and we’re thrilled to see the Jewish people in their homeland today. But the …
Here’s a sad thought: Many churches and Christian leaders teach that Israel, the nation of God’s Chosen People, doesn’t matter to God anymore. Much of the world feels the same way. But how can this be? Maybe these people just need to read Romans 9–11. We’re studying these three chapters in our three-part series “Israel Still Matters to God.” We’ll …
As Christian Zionists we believe it’s important to understand how Israel became a nation in 1948. It wasn’t simply one event but years and years of events, resolutions, and the buying and selling of land that led to the rebirth of Israel—all under the watchful eye of God. Today we’re learning about the San Remo Conference. This important conference did …
