Israel seems to be in the news every day and Christians need to know…should they be supportive of Israel? Will we be blessed if we support Israel and cursed if we don’t? Is Israel returning to glory a sign of the Second Coming?
In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie answer a listener question about Zionism, and more specifically, Christian Zionism. We look at the definition of Christian Zionism, which seems to be a bit of a moving target. From there, we look at God’s promises in the Bible towards Israel and try to determine how that applies to Christians today and whether we should be giving our unwavering support to the nation of Israel or if there is more to this issue that quoting a couple of passages from Genesis.
