The Right-Wing “Israel Conspiracy”
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008It is common knowledge that the right-wing movement represents Israel’s major support base in America. Whatever issue, turmoil or conflict is brewing between Israel and the Palestinians, right-wingers are sure to be “pro-Israel”. Of course, much of the right-wing is comprised of Evangelicals. And, Evangelicals’ support of Israel is more than political; it is also religious or spiritual. Evangelicals choose to believe that the physical nation of Israel is still God’s chosen nation today, and that God favors Jews above all other people. With that kind of bias it’s obvious why they are always pro-Israel regardless of who is right or wrong.
Evangelicals also claim that Israel worships the same God that Christians worship, whereas they say that Islam worships a different God. However, the Islamic religion actually holds Jesus Christ, who is the Lord and Savior of Christians, in much higher esteem than does Judaism. Islam regards Jesus as being one of the greatest prophets of God, but Judaism, at best, only regards Him as being a good man and a teacher. There is an obvious unjust double standard being employed here by Evangelicals. How can Judaism, the religion that esteems Jesus the least, be worshipping the same God as Christians, while Islam which esteems Jesus much more highly, is worshipping a different God than Christians?
It is interesting that Evangelicals intentionally contradict the specific teachings of their own New Testament, as they conspire to deceive Americans by stating that Israel also worships the God of Christianity. Evangelicals are fully aware that their prospective new converts to Christianity are taught that, in order to be accepted by the Father God of Christianity, they must place their faith in Jesus and profess Him as being the divine Son of God, Savior, Lord and as having risen from the dead after His crucifixion. The New Testament clearly states that all who do not profess this kind of faith in Jesus have denied, and do not have, a relationship with Christianity’s Father God. The nation of Israel and Judaism do not profess Jesus to be Savior, Lord and the Son of God, and therefore do not worship the God of Christianity. Evangelical leaders know this! So, why have they conspired to tell this lie to the American public? Obviously, it must be the result of their own bias and their political desires concerning Israel.
Evangelical leaders also know that Jesus said that God had rejected the nation of Israel as being a favored nation because of their rejection of Him. And, they know that the New Testament states in many places that Jew and Gentile are “one and the same” to God now, and that no one is favored above another. If you are interested in hearing the biblical evidence that proves these things, I encourage you to listen to my podcast titled, “The Bible Truth About Israel”.
I call upon Evangelical leaders to stop this deception and prejudice, and to put an end to this Israel conspiracy. Only then can they ever hope to have a balanced perspective of the issues between Israel and the Palestinian people.
