Your Thoughts: Israel and the Church, Two Separate Destinies

The article, written by Jack Kelley (Grace Thru Faith) is a response to concerns he has about extremism within the Hebrew Roots Movement, While Hebrew Roots appears to teach that because of the Lord’s death, obedience to the Law is […]

Waiting for Armageddon

Watched this last night and thought it was fascinating. Don’t think I’ll forget anytime soon hearing one participant in this video (think he was a pastor?) talking about how it will be “fun” to watch (from heaven) those left on earth being slaughtered after the rapture. Sigh…. Watch: Waiting for Armageddon

Did Glenn Beck just jump the shark in Israel?

Not satisfied with spreading his conspiracies, paranoia, and insanity in America alone, Beck has decided to take his show on the road beginning with stirring up religious and political dissension within Israel.   It isn’t just members of the US Congress who are making a beeline for Israel for summer vacation (more than 80 members […]

Inside CUFI’s 2011 Washington Summit

I always look forward to reading the eye-witness reports at JewsOnFirst, concerning CUFI’s yearly Washington Summit.

Israel and the Church: (Part 3)

Part (1) – Part (2) Some interesting facts, *Christian Zionism, through its active and public support for Jewish restoration to Palestine, predated the rise of Jewish Zionism by at least 60 years.  *Its origins lie within 19th century British premillennial sectarianism. By the early 20th century it had become a predominantly American dispensational movement and […]

Israel and the Church: (Part 2)

Part 1: Dispensational Zionism In part 2 the author takes a look at Classical Zionism, While historic or classical pre-millennialism is distinctly non-dispensational and therefore does not draw such clear lines between Israel and the church, it maintains that the prophecies of the Old Testament remain in force for ethnic Israel today. Thus while acknowledging a […]

Israel and the Church: (Part 1)

I’ve been doing a lot of reading this week on the topic of Israel, the Church, and Christian Zionism. One book in particular, Christian Zionism; Road – Map to Armageddon by Stephen Sizer, has been very interesting due not only to the author’s research but to the numerous quotes contained in the book from a […]

Religious Right Leaders, Dominionists and False Prophets: United at Last

Christians Bolster Jews as Settlement Freeze Ends: Israel – An Evangelical Idol

In his latest post Rick Frueh reminds us of how many evangelicals have fallen into idolatry concerning Israel.

Jesus: The Deliberate Intent, The Prophetic Fulfilment, The Unquestioned Authority

Stephen Sizer has posted an excellent message titled: “O Jerusalem”: Jesus and the Temple (Mark 11:1-25) The Road from Jericho to Jerusalem is just 14 miles. A half-day’s journey, uphill all the way.

Is Criticism of Israel Anti-Semitic?

Someone emailed this to me right after Christmas, and as it is a controversial topic in many Christian circles, I decided to hold off posting it until after the holidays.
