Israel

We simply want to state for the record that we recognize that there is much confusion about Israel and the Jewish People in the Christian church. On the basis of our own research, we affirm the following:

We do not confuse the condemnations of the excesses of the government of Israel with the condemnations of the People of Israel.

We remember and recognize that - at present - Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East surrounded by a sea of hostile dictatorships, who exercise routine control and censorship of their undemocratic press.

The creation of the New Arabic Nation State of Palestine will exist - temporarily - in the area of Gaza, and most likely over Judea, Samaria and Galilee. We merely note this fact, though Christianity clearly affirms that the Jews are entitled and have a sovereign, moral, and legal right to all of the land given to the twelve tribes of Israel. (Yes - we know that the tribe of Levi technically was not given land). The newly formed state of Palestine will be an ISLAMIC STATE ruled Not by Democracy, but rather by ISLAMIC SHARIA LAW. The Palestinians have always been ruled by autocrats and dictators (like most of the Arab world), unless they happened to be among those arabs who were given full rights to participate in elections in Israel. The Nation State of Palestine will not be a democracy, despite the false promises of politicians. (And everyone who lives under the authority of the Palestinian Authority already knows this).

We define Zionism as the lawful attempt on the part of a people-group recognized as Jewish to have possession of the territory which was rendered back to them in 1947/48. We acknowledge that in 1948, the Arabs were offered their own state but overtly rejected it, and that despite this, the non-jewish participants in the middle east were given the state of Trans-Jordan (today called Jordan), which was the partitioning of the British Mandate over Palestine (see Map). Today, at least 85% of the inhabitants of Jordan are Palestinian. Our basis for these statements are the documents of the United Nations.

We acknowledge that the Jewish people in the state of Israel today are the genealogical descendants of the Jewish People described in the Old Testament and the Archeological Remains found in Israel.

We acknowledge that while true Christians are grafted into the tree of Salvation of Israel (Salvation by Faith alone in Jesus Christ), that it is Biblically incorrect to suggest that the Church has supplanted or replaced the Jewish People as the Chosen people in the eyes of Almighty God.

We acknowledge that many so-called false Christians have harmed those who were Jewish - in the name of Christianity. We acknowledge that those who committed actions against the innocent were overwhelmingly not true Christians, by all mainstream historical standards of what a true Christian is.

As Christians unafraid of history, we recognize the spurious, wrong and counterfeit nature of the document called the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. We believe that the genesis of this document can be traced back to a book in the 1850s written against Napoleon III. We believe that this book was found by Sergius Nilus, an orthodox priest who appears to have been a demoniac, who then inspired Victor Marsden and members of occult Tsarist Elites and the Tsarist Secret Police to propagate those lies. Based on historical evidence, we stand against the so-called Protocols of Zion.

We acknowledge that Henry Ford propagated the Protocols of Zion in the US, though he was one of the main sponsors of the Third Reich. We refuse to re-write history.
