A Christian journalist says Christianity Today magazine is ignoring
both history and Bible prophecy regarding the nation of Israel.
A Christianity Today editorial titled "What It Means to Love Israel"
praises evangelicals who favor the creation of a so-called "Palestinian
state" and accuses dispensationalist Christians of supporting what it
calls the Israeli "occupation" of millions of Palestinians. The article
also warns evangelicals to "beware of attributing too much theological
meaning to the state of Israel and not enough to the Jewish people."
Joseph Farah, the editor of WorldNetDaily, says the movement for
Palestinian statehood and "self-determination" that Christianity Today
is embracing is "a front for the agenda of eradicating Israel."
"What they are really accusing some evangelicals of doing, I guess, is
taking their Bible too literally, taking it too seriously," he says,
adding sarcastically, "You know, when it says that God has an eternal
covenant with the Jewish people, oh you know, he really doesn't mean
eternal or covenant."
Farah says the establishment of a Palestinian state would mark the
first time in the history of mankind in which a state is created by
international mandate where no such state or peoples ever existed. And
the "two-state solution" advocated by Christianity Today is not a
solution, he says, but rather a "capitulation to Palestinian terrorism."
"Christianity Today really has determined for us -- and all of
Christianity, I guess -- what it means to love Israel," he states. "And
apparently, what it means to the editors over there is slicing Israel
up geographically and turning over most of the historically Jewish
lands to Israel's most bitter enemies, people who are sworn to
eradicate this tiny Jewish presence in the Middle East."
Farah says for the life of him, he cannot understand what is
"Christian" about forcing Israel to turn over Judea, Samaria, and half
of Jerusalem to Palestinian Authority terrorists.
