| 2026-01-19 |
“Damn all those Protestants for thinking for themselves, anyway, when they’re supposed to leave the thinking to those trained for millennia to do so.” [IsraelTimes] The leaders of the major Roman Catholic, Eastern Catholic, Orthodox, and other churches in the region issue a condemnation of Christian Zionism, which they call one of the “damaging ideologies” being pushed in Israel that “mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock.”“These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East,” ”Donchaknow it’s dangerous for Christians to be known in the Ummah as supporters of Israel?” say the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in the Holy Land, who also emphasize their concern that Christian Zionists “have been welcomed at official levels both locally and internationally.”The Church leaders insist that “they alone represent the Churches and their flock in matters pertaining to Christian religious, communal, and pastoral life in the Holy Land.” |
