God promised through the prophets that He would return the Jewish people to the land of Israel. This promise is reiterated over and over in the Scriptures, which makes the Bible a very Zionist book… so does that mean God is racist too? Nothing could be further from the truth.

Israel has a very clear answer when asked if there is a way to find a two-state solution: NO! As Israel negotiates with the Trump administration, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated the IDF will remain positioned along Mount Hermon in the north and inside Gaza until every tunnel is cleared and Hamas is fully disarmed.

This is why antisemitism is so persistent. It is why it mutates from religious to racial to political forms. It is why it appears on the left and the right. And it is why today’s Jew-hatred looks eerily like yesterday’s, even when the rhetoric has changed. The covenant God made with Abraham remains, and therefore the hatred remains. But the Scriptures are clear: the Jewish people are not the obstacle to the redemption of the world—they are the vehicle of it.

Their line—"Christian Zionism is Christian heresy"—reveals that politics has become their religion. They promote not the transforming work of Christ in individual hearts but a cultural crusade—a collective Christian identity defined by power, blame, and control. In that movement, Israel becomes a target, and Christian Zionists are the pawns.

It is a time for great celebration. However, Hamas appears to be preparing a campaign of violent retribution against anyone it views as an obstacle to its renewed control over Gaza. In the coming days, this could manifest in a mafia-style execution of individuals the group labels as collaborators.

All attention is on the war in Gaza and the hostages that are still being held by Hamas, but once again, we are reminded that Israel's enemies surround them and that the threat is very real. The Palestinian territories of the so-called "West Bank," which is Biblical Judea and Samaria, remain a threat to Israel's national security.

With each day that passes since Hamas attacked Israel, the mantra Am Yisrael Chai continues to drown out the death cry of Iran’s regime. This is the power of hope in God’s promises against the hate and deception of the Devil. Israel’s mantra does not merely counter destruction; it overwhelms it.

Hitler did not invent anti-Semitism in Europe. He was merely the tip of the iceberg. The vast bulk of the insidious structure lies beneath the surface, which is why today’s Europe is beginning to resemble 1939 all over again. Hitler tapped into the prevailing attitude in Germany at the time.

Ambassador Huckabe is speaking to a major problem within Netanyahu's current government, which was made up of largely Orthodox political parties. Unlike Netanyahu, these parties consider evangelicals a religious adversary to the Jewish state, not an ally.

Twice, while walking through Washington, Huckabee was aggressively confronted by pro-Hamas protestors. “They recognized me, surrounded me, screamed at me,” he told us. “It made things so uncomfortable that about fifteen D.C. police had to intervene. That happened—not once—but twice.” In a comment that startled many, Huckabee added, “I got to get out of this crazy town, Washington, and get back to Jerusalem, where I’m safe."

On July 5, the sheikhs sent Economy Minister Nir Barkat a letter expressing Hebron's wish to break away from the widely unpopular Palestinian Authority, establish an "Emirate of Hebron," and formally recognize Israel as a Jewish state under the Abraham Accords. Rather than clinging to the dream of Palestinian statehood with all its pie-in-the-sky demands—like a right of return and an East Jerusalem capital—these Hebron leaders embrace normalization, integration, and cooperation. 

Israeli airstrikes this week destroyed Iran's infamous "Israel doomsday clock" in Tehran, a symbol of the regime's vow to annihilate Israel. Unveiled in 2017 on Israel's Jerusalem Day, the clock displayed a Palestinian fist smashing an Israeli flag beside the words: "Time left before the destruction of Israel."

Humans of New York misrepresented the Jewish community by platforming Neturei Karta. They are a fringe group widely rejected by mainstream Judaism, presented as if they speak for all Jewish people. One commenter captured the concern well, writing: "Wow, this is embarrassing tokenization. This is a tiny, extreme, and racist sect of Judaism that is rejected by nearly every Jew in America."

Hamas is struggling for control. The new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is aid distributed by America with Israeli security oversight. Hamas wants a permanent ceasefire and the United Nations to distribute food. As US Special Envoy to the Middle Steve Witkoff stated, that is "totally unacceptable." It will give Hamas ample time to reload, rearm, and steal food meant for the Palestinian people.

Just as the Spanish monarchy once scapegoated the Jewish people to appease public sentiment and consolidate power, today's rhetoric risks repeating that injustice under the guise of moral posturing. Targeting Israel in a cultural arena mirrors the same exclusionary mindset that fueled centuries of Jewish persecution in Spain.

The tragic and senseless murders of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim on the streets of Washington, D.C., are far more than another headline—they should stir the conscience of the global Church. In their deaths, we witness a powerful intersection between the Jewish and Christian communities—a moment that reveals just how deeply connected our stories truly are. These two Jewish believers in Jesus were killed for the “hope of Israel” (Acts 28:20), the very phrase the Apostle Paul used to describe the unbreakable link between his faith in the Messiah and God’s promises to His people.

Since the beginning of the Israel-Gaza War, there have been reports of famine conditions in Gaza, although Israel and other humanitarian organizations have been shipping in plenty of food. Now, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to take over the operations inside Gaza to ensure Hamas is not taking the food and other necessary products from the hands of the Palestinian people. Will this be a successful move?

While international attention remains fixed on Hamas in Gaza, Israel hasn't forgotten that Hamas gained ground in both Gaza and the West Bank during the 2006 elections. Their extremist ideology didn't stop at the coastal strip; it seeped into Judea and Samaria, where it continues to inspire violence. Israelis aren't just looking backward at what happened on October 7th, they're looking eastward toward what might be coming.

Antisemitism, hatred of the Jewish people, is a shapeshifter. Its forms may change, but its heartbeat and destructive outcomes remain the same. Today, antisemitism has shifted yet again. It is morphing into what can be called national antisemitism, where Jews are hated not because of their religion or ethnicity but because of the State of Israel.

That day, they had front-row seats to the prophetic drama of God’s plan for the ages. But Jesus had work for them to do, though He never denied that Kingdom restoration will one day occur as the prophets foretold. Jesus gave His disciples the consequential task of being witnesses for Him throughout the world—the same task He has given us.

Satan has been influencing rulers to try to separate God’s Chosen People from God’s city since King David established Jerusalem as the Jewish capital more than 3,000 years ago. One would think the vast amount of empirical evidence from both written and archaeological records connecting the two would quiet such opposition. Yet, even in our advanced and modern age, Jerusalem remains the subject of international dispute.

Huckabee views Israel not through a political lens but a biblical one. His framework is anchored in God’s covenantal promise to Abraham: “To your descendants I have given this land” (Gen. 15:18). “This land” includes even the contested area the world calls the West Bank, a term Huckabee rejects in favor of the biblical names, Judea and Samaria.

Satanic deception fuels the notion that Jewish people stand in the way of the world’s redemption. Satan wants to convince humanity to hate Israel and the Jewish people as an imperative, righteous mission to save the world from Jewish influence.

Christians who believe in the Rapture are often portrayed as escapists who are out of touch with reality and ready to leave this world and all its problems behind. Consequently, this once-beloved teaching has eroded. Some Christians don’t want to associate with a belief that is mocked publicly or abused by date-setters, so they distance themselves from it; and this distancing appears more in the pulpit than in the pew.

Just as Pharaoh was given many opportunities to make the right choice, Hamas also has been offered opportunities to act humanely. But, like Pharaoh, the terrorists have hardened their hearts, intent on bringing suffering to others—and to themselves.
