While ignoring Muslim atrocities against African & mid-East Christians, the Lausanne Movement targets Christians who support Israel.

By Israel Today Staff

 

The Lausanne Movement, the world’s leading Christian evangelism movement, has once again taken aim at what it believes to be the sinful practice of Christian support for the State of Israel, or Christian Zionism.

Lausanne, like many evangelical groups today, fails to take on overt Muslim oppression of Christians, while leaping on each and every allegation of Israeli wrong-doing.

“For over 60 years, many evangelicals have clung to a very narrow theological narrative that weds Christian theology with a political ideology known as Zionism,” writes Steve Haas, vice president of World Vision US, in the latest issue of Lausanne Global Analysis.

By Dror Eydar

 

One picture captured my heart this past Sunday.

Meet the Christian Zionists

Evangelical Christians by the millions are working day & night to protect Israel. They stage conventions, they exert political pressure on their representatives in Washington & they raise awareness in the world on issues like the Iranian threat or on Palestinian incitement, and they do this not only in the name of justice, but because it is an integral part of their faith in Jesus.
