The odd thing is that I don't find any justification or reasoning in the Bible that would lead to support of Israel.
The 700 club tells them too. That’s whats great about faith and religion. You really don’t have to justify it with scripture or evidence.

I mean, more than 80% of the original Bolshevik party apparatus were Jewish, which is absolutely bonkers compared to the demographics of Russia at the time.

I can see that just for the power grab, but after decades of brutal treatment under the soviets, I can't imagine how they have a great feeling about left wing ideology.

To rebuild the Temple Mount, destroying Al-Asqa mosque is a necessity. It's going to be a massive shitshow.

Full Disclosure: I had to look up eschatological because I didn't know what the 5$ word meant.

As someone who has read a bit of Revelation and listen to others more learned in biblical prophecy..The western world is really not mentioned AT ALL in the end times. Many have taken that as a sign that the west has so little power/no influence , or it has been destroyed and is controlled by another world faction.

If that is possible I would not want to usher in the "end times"

just food for thought.

So the 700 club tells them to?

Did the 700 club tell all the leftists to lie about supporting the embassy move right up until someone did it?

If you are an evangelical Christian, Zionism should be viewed as an abomination. If you believe the Bible to be the literal word of God, only He, through his Messiah, can re-establish the nation of Israel as it exists in Scripture. The attempt by humans to re-establish a nation comprised of largely secular Jews and calling it Israel should be seen as prideful blasphemy.

It's definitely eschatological, but I don't see anything in Revelation (granted, it's my least favorite book in the Bible simply because it's weird and cryptic as frick) that lends itself to bizarro Zionism.



For most Christians it is as simple as Genesis 12:3

In reference to Israel, God said, "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse.."

So, if you're picking sides then...

The rest of what you reference is about the second coming of Christ and is not a simple verse found in Revelation. Read Daniel 8 & 9, Matthew 24, 2 Thessalonians, and Revelation 11. Of course, not all Christians agree on the interpretation of these passages.
