Genesis: 'And God said, I will curse those who curse Israel' and 'And through you, I will bless all nations.' These quotes were spoken to Abraham. He asks, 'are Israelites or are Jews still God's chosen people?' and answers, 'No.' He cites Galatians: 'There is neither Jew nor Gentile slave nor free nor is there male or female for you all are one in Christ Jesus.' 'If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise.' He claims this provides 'clear and undeniable evidence from scripture that God said that if you are one in Christ, you are God's people, and you are the seed of Abraham.' He states, 'the modern day Jews that reside in the state of Israel are not God's people. It is the Christians, the people who are one in Christ.' He urges, 'Read these passages, read the context around them, and don't just go based upon one little pluck from the bible to base your entire belief system off of when it comes to who are God's people.'

A version of the Bible was edited to include support for Israel, which has been used to rally evangelical backing for the country. However, this support contradicts biblical predictions of the antichrist ruling from Israel. Jews await their messiah, who Christians believe will be the antichrist. This contradiction raises questions about the true identity of the messiah and the implications of supporting Israel.

Speaker 0: The Israelites is not Israel. And as Tony and I are both Catholic, and so when we talk about the Israelites that are talked about in the Bible, there is a clear distinction between this prophecy about the Israelites and the government of Israel and white Europeans settling into the holy land. Mhmm. And so when we say this, like, the Israelites, the Israelites in the bible are actually the Palestinian people who have been there for thousands of years, not the white European from Ukraine or Poland or America. The Israelites are the people who were indigenous to that land that lived there for thousands of years, and those are not the people who have Trump wrapped around his finger. It's this, like, settler colonial white Europeans that have settled into the land of the actual Israelites that have either blackmailed him or cut deals with him financially. I mean, we go back to greed. Right? Greed is always, like, a big factor decisions. So Trump, in all senses, is wrapped in intertwined with this government and the Zionist regime and the Rothschilds and the Vanderbilts and the 13 rich families that control the world, basically. Right.

The speaker discusses the Scofield Bible, claiming that its emergence is linked to a historical convergence of major events in the early 20th century. They state that around the time when the Federal Reserve was founded and the Balfour Declaration occurred, the Rothschild family recruited a pastor in the Deep South to produce a new version of the Bible—the Scofield Bible. According to the speaker, this Bible introduced new interpretations of biblical text. They assert that Jewish influence affected Christian interpretation through this edition, describing it as the origin of Judeo-Christian ideas and the concept that Israel represents the modern political nation of Israel as understood in the Bible. The speaker further claims that the Scofield Bible was funded by the Rothschild family. They assert that the Rothschilds owned the publisher responsible for distributing the Bible, identifying Oxford Press as the publisher. Because of these ownership and funding arrangements, the speaker contends that they had the ability to push the Scofield Bible into widespread circulation, across megachurches and across entire denominations of Christianity. As a result, the speaker concludes that Christianity was effectively “Jewified” through this process. Key points highlighted include: - The Scofield Bible was created in the early 1900s, coinciding with the founding of the Federal Reserve and the Balfour Declaration. - The Rothschild family hired a pastor in the Deep South to author a new Bible version (the Scofield Bible) with revised interpretations. - This edition introduced or popularized Judeo-Christian concepts and reinforced the idea that Israel today aligns with the Israel of the Bible. - The Scofield Bible was funded by the Rothschild family and distributed through a publisher (identified as Oxford Press) that they owned, enabling its widespread adoption. - The widespread push of the Scofield Bible contributed to Christianity being “Jewified” across megachurches and denominations.

In the early nineteen hundreds, around the Federal Reserve’s founding and the Balfour Declaration, the Rothschild family hired a pastor in the Deep South who made a new version of the Bible called the Scofield Bible, with new interpretations. They didn't change Jewish influence. Yes. Literally. That's where Judeo Christianity kinda came from. And the idea that Israel is this modern Israel thing is the Israel of the Bible. It came from that Bible. And the Scofield Bible was funded by the Rothschild family. Then it was pushed because they owned the publisher that publishes like all the books. I think it was Oxford Press. And so they had the deals that they could make to get that Bible into all the mega churches across whole denominations of Christianity. And so that was when Christianity got kind of Jewified.

Benjamin Netanyahu relies on US support to veto UN resolutions against Israel and for military assistance. The idea of Israel as a biblical prophecy has been present since the 1970s, particularly among evangelical Christians in the US. Amid the recent conflict in Gaza, American evangelical pastors continue to reference biblical prophecies. Christian Zionism, which predates Jewish Zionism, is a belief that the return of Jewish people to Israel will lead to the second coming of Jesus Christ. This movement heavily influences US foreign policy, with over 100 evangelical members in Congress. Evangelical support for Israel extends to fundraising, organizing tours of the occupied West Bank, and opposing the two-state solution. Netanyahu uses scripture to appease his main supporters, the Christian Zionist movement.

The speaker discusses how the Rothschilds influenced the creation of a new Bible to support a political Israel. They highlight the misunderstanding of God's promise to Abraham, emphasizing a spiritual kingdom over a physical one. The true descendants of Abraham are those who walk faithfully with God, not a political nation. This spiritual seed is what defines Israel, not a physical lineage. The speaker emphasizes the importance of faith and spiritual connection over political and military agendas.

The word "Israel" in the Bible refers to believers in God, not a place. Sabbatai Zevi tried to resettle Jews in Palestine in 1666 but was arrested. Zionism became political, supported by the British crown and Rothschild banking dynasty. In 1917, the Balfour Declaration led to British control of Palestine for Zionists. The UN granted parts of Palestine to Zionists in 1947, causing Palestinian displacement. Zionists, mostly Ashkenazi Jews, have Christian evangelical support. The temple of Solomon must be rebuilt for the messiah to come, conflicting with the Al Aqsa Mosque. Choose peace over conflict.

Speaker 0 believes Christians are biblically commanded to support Israel, based on the idea that those who bless Israel will be blessed. Speaker 1 questions if this refers to the modern political entity of Israel, with its current borders and leadership, as opposed to the Jewish people. Speaker 0 affirms that the biblical reference to Israel does indeed refer to the modern nation-state, which he says is the same nation of Israel spoken about in Genesis. Speaker 1 expresses skepticism, suggesting that most people interpret the Genesis passage as referring to the Jewish people, not necessarily the political entity of modern Israel.

Speaker 0 states their support for Israel stems from a biblical teaching: those who bless Israel will be blessed. Speaker 1 questions if this refers to the modern government of Israel. Speaker 0 clarifies the Bible refers to the nation of Israel. Speaker 1 asks for a definition of Israel, questioning if it means the current political entity run by Benjamin Netanyahu, and Speaker 0 confirms that it does. Speaker 1 suggests the Genesis verse refers to the Jewish people, but Speaker 0 disagrees. Speaker 1 points out Speaker 0 cannot cite the exact scripture. Speaker 0 says they are explaining their personal motivation, not saying all Christians must support the modern state of Israel. Speaker 1 summarizes Speaker 0's position as being based on a Bible verse they cannot locate.

"As Christians support the government of Israel, we are commanded to support Israel." "It says that those who bless you, Abraham, this was before Israel, will be blessed by God." "And those who curse you, Abraham, will be cursed by God." "For not all who are born into the nation of Israel are truly members of God's people." "Being descendants of Abraham doesn't make them truly Abraham's children." "Israel didn't have a nation or a land to call their own for almost two thousand years since the destruction of the temple in the year seventy AD." "The nation of Israel was recreated through some political operatives after World War II." "I think the scripture makes it clear that it's about whether you're blessing or cursing the true children of Abraham, those who believe the promises of the gospel."

In 1908, Oxford University Press published the Scofield Reference Bible, a false and misleading interpretation of the Christian text. This bible aimed to promote the idea that the future state of Israel was the path to God. The book gained significant influence in American seminaries and Bible schools, shaping the beliefs of future pastors and teachers. American Christianity became increasingly Zionist after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948. The Scofield Reference Bible, edited by Cyrus I Scofield, contained numerous footnotes that distorted scripture, claiming that God promised the land of Israel to the present-day state forever. These interpretations were used to justify Christian Zionism and support for Israel. However, these claims were based on false interpretations and lacked historical accuracy.

The Scofield Reference Bible, published by Oxford University Press in 1908, aimed to reinterpret Christian texts to support the idea of a Jewish state in Israel. This book was promoted in American seminaries, shaping the beliefs of future pastors. Following the establishment of Israel in 1948, American Christianity became increasingly aligned with Zionism. The Scofield Bible's footnotes distort biblical texts to suggest that God promised land to modern Israel, despite the fact that the nation did not exist during Abraham's time. Critics like Philip Morrow and Dr. Furman Curley have warned against the dangers of Christian Zionism, linking it to militarism and conflict in the Middle East. They argue that true Christian teachings advocate for peace, not war, and caution against doctrines that could lead to violence against others.

Speaker 0 argues that America’s economy is war-based and that those who plan it rely on Christians for support. Christian Zionists, by whatever name, are described as the primary enablers of serial wars, sanctions, and occupations of Islamic states. The question posed is why Christians support war when Jesus demanded peace, with the claim that they have been conditioned to see Islam as a threat. Christian Zionist leaders are accused of using themselves as propagandists against Islamic governments, including Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan, Somalia, Bosnia, Iran, and Sudan. The speaker’s purpose is to explain how this has been done and what can be changed, asserting that wars are an official economic policy of the U.S. government and that Christian Zionists are the only major faction supporting wars in places like Iraq. Responsibility for economic and social disasters, rising energy and food costs, is attributed largely to Christian Zionists, who are described as influential in presidential politics and as among our friends and relatives, requiring a constructive approach rather than ridicule. Speaker 0 states that Christian Zionism is a promoted religion that makes little sense on its own and is not believed for its logic. The claim is that endless wars erode morality and currency, citing Great Britain as an historical example. Christian Zionists are said to be swayed to support war as long as they believe Muslims are on the receiving end and Israel benefits. The speaker emphasizes not excusing Jewish war-making but asserts that for every Jewish Zionist, there are 10 or 20 Christian Zionists doing their work. Christian Zionists are accused of turning away from Jesus’ words, “blessed are the peacemakers,” and love of enemies, and the speaker asserts that followers who fail to stand for justice will be questioned. Speaker 1 adds that the Christian Bible demands peace, with “Blessed are the peacemakers” cited as a central, uncompromising message. They challenge pastors and religious leaders to find any line in the Bible permitting war or killing, concluding there is none. Speaker 0 notes that political change requires understanding the roots of Christian Zionism, mentioning that many who “Israel first” do not identify as Christian Zionists and may deny the label. Media figures at the apex of Christian Zionism—John Hagee, Ron Parsley, Pat Robertson, the late Jerry Falwell—are named as having expressed views that war against Islamic states is necessary, including war against Iran, and some advocate preemptive military action against Iran. Speaker 1 asserts that Christian Zionism is the only religion with war as a core principle, contrasting it with mainstream Christianity of 2,000 years. They question how to identify a Christian Zionist with a litmus test: whether they believe modern Israel fulfills biblical prophecy. Speaker 0 and Speaker 1 discuss biblical interpretation, arguing that God’s promise to Abram did not grant land to present-day Israel forever, and that Scofield’s notes in The Scofield Reference Bible (fundamental to Christian Zionism) distort scripture. They criticize Oxford University Press for promoting Scofield’s notes, suggesting that Scofield’s footnotes insert unbiblical interpretations, such as an unconditional blessing of Israel and a perpetual land grant, and claim that these notes misrepresent the promise and connect blessings and curses to contemporary politics. Historical commentary includes: the Balfour Declaration, World War I involvement, and the role of Zionist influence through Scofield and Oxford University Press in shaping American evangelical support for Israel. Philip Morrow (Gospel of the Kingdom) and Doctor F. Furman Curley are cited as early critics who warned against dispensationalism and Christian Zionism, linking Armageddon predictions to support for war. The transcript includes firsthand testimony from Gaza: Shireen, a Palestinian from Gaza, describing nightly missile raids and occupation, and the film’s purpose to document the consequences of Christian Zionist policy. The concluding appeal urges sharing the film with mainline pastors and encouraging recovery of America for God, rejecting the notion of a divinely ordained Israeli state. The film is dedicated to Shireen and others affected by the conflict.

In 1908, Oxford University Press published the Scofield Reference Bible, a false and misleading interpretation of the Christian text that promoted the idea of a future state of Israel as the way to God. This bible was heavily promoted in American seminaries and Bible schools, shaping the beliefs of future pastors and benefiting the state of Israel. American Christianity became increasingly Zionist after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948. The Scofield Reference Bible, edited by Cyrus I Scofield, contained numerous footnotes that distorted scripture, claiming that God promised the land to present-day Israel forever. These footnotes were added over time, with the most radical changes made in 1967. The book's influence was spread through seminaries, and pastors who graduated from these schools taught from this bible. The Oxford University Press continued to update and publish the book, even after Scofield's death. The book's footnotes falsely claimed that God promised blessings and curses based on how people treated present-day Jews and Israel, creating a national sin of anti-Semitism. Critics of Christian Zionism, like Philip Mauro and Dr. Furman Curley, have pointed out the dangers of this ideology, including its promotion of perpetual war in the Middle East.

A new political military Israel was promoted through the Scofield Study Bible, funded by the Rothschilds, to gain Christian support for a one world government. However, the true promise to Abraham was a heavenly kingdom, not a physical nation. The misunderstanding of Israel's purpose led to conflict in the Middle East. The real descendants of Abraham are those who walk faithfully with God, not a specific ethnic group. This spiritual seed is what truly matters, not political or military power.

The Schofield Reference Bible, published in 1909 by the Oxford University Press with later editions, is described as one of the most influential study Bibles on dispensationalism. It is not a Bible in itself, but the footnotes annotated by Cyrus Schofield into the King James Bible, synthesizing the Bible’s message into seven distinct dispensations between creation and judgment, during which God deals with humanity in various ways, specifically in matters of salvation and the nation of Israel. Schofield built upon the works of John Nelson Darby, referred to as the father of modern dispensationalism, and Clarence Larkin, who systematizes teachings into charts and published them in a book titled modestly as the greatest book on dispensational truth in the world. It is stated that the Schofield Reference Bible is largely responsible for Christian Zionism within churches, and it has influenced generations of American Christians to adopt the belief that the Jews are still God’s chosen people and that Christians should support the nation of Israel. When Christians asked for biblical justification for that support, they are said to often point to Genesis chapter 12 verse 3—not because it says Israel or the Jews, but because the footnotes state, “there was a promise of blessing on those individuals and nations who bless Abraham’s descendants and a curse laid on those who persecute the Jews.” The commentary is claimed to interpret “curse them to curse at thee” as meaning that a nation that commits the sin of antisemitism brings inevitable judgment, by interpreting cursing Abraham as cursing Israel and interpreting cursing Israel as antisemitic. This stance is asserted to fly in the face of the New Testament, which records Jesus Christ cursing the nation of Israel and Jews on multiple occasions (Matthew 21:19 and 43; Revelation 2:9 and 3:9; and 1 Thessalonians 2:14–16). It is also claimed that Schofield’s commentary on Genesis 12 aligns far more with the Talmud than with the Bible, since Gittim 56 through 57 teaches that the person who curses the Jews will be judged by God in hell, burning in their own excrement. This is presented as one of many reasons why every Christian should throw out their Schofield Reference Bible.

Speaker 0 asserts that if you have a Scofield Reference Bible, you need to know the author of that reference Bible because he’s not who people think he is; he is not Doctor Scofield. Speaker 1 corrects: Never was a doctor. Speaker 0 specifies: Nelson Darby is the man who created dispensationalism, and Larkins basically packaged it in his books, but it was Scofield who distributed it. John Nelson Darby’s doctrines supposedly went nowhere in Britain among the Plymouth Brethren through the 1800s, with only pockets in the United States aware of them, until Cyrus Schofield became the propaganda meister for Darby’s doctrine. Speaker 2 defines the Scofield Reference Bible as a King James Bible with notes in the margins acting as a commentary, in which dispensational truth is taught, and the Bible was shipped around the world. Speaker 3 adds: Many contributors to the Scofield Reference Bible helped sweep the movement across the United States. Speaker 2 explains: Somebody financed publication of many Scofield Bibles, and they were mailed to churches across America. Speaker 0 elaborates: The Bibles were given to Baptist young preachers in seminaries and Bible colleges, facilitating the spread of dispensationalism across pulpits and the country. Speaker 0 continues: Conferences, the establishment of Bible colleges, and Dallas Theological Seminary were part of a coordinated effort to spread the dispensational movement, which was very successful for a time. Speaker 1 notes: The Bibles were distributed widely in rural America and small town churches. Speaker 0 adds: Millions were distributed. Speaker 1 explains: Bible salesmen would get the Bibles for free, then sell them for whatever they could get. Speaker 1 answers: They got them for free from the publishing company—Oxford. Speaker 4 states: C. I. Schofield is placed on a pedestal by independent fundamental Baptists; pulpits across America feature a Schofield Reference Bible. Yet this is a man who preferred to use the Revised Version over the King James for his references, and he used the King James 1611 only because of its popularity at the time. So, he supposedly “threw the King James Bible under the bus” and said it’s not a good one, but used it because it was most popular. The speaker questions why Baptist, King James Only advocates promote a heretic who downplayed and disliked the King James Bible as a man of God who can teach good doctrine. Speaker 0 claims: They infiltrated American evangelical churches with Zionist propaganda, and the Baptist, Pentecostal, Assemblies of God, Church of God, and other denominations progressively bought into it. Speaker 1 adds: People actually believe the notes are sacred as the texts themselves. Speaker 5 contributes: A person with a Schofield Bible wants to read Schofield’s notes on Acts 15, noting that dispensationally, this is the most important passage in the New Testament, giving the divine purpose for this age and for the beginning of the next.

"A 'false and intentionally misleading bible' called the Scofield Reference Bible was published by Oxford University Press in nineteen o eight, 'Its mission was to inject into the Christian text reinterpretations that made the future state of Israel the way to God.' The book 'was to be a foundational document upon which Christian Zionism ... would begin its methodical growth by deception.' 'Note on page 19 that the footnotes dwarf the text.' The footnotes claim, 'God made an unconditional promise of blessing through Abram's seed to the nation of Israel to inherit a specific territory forever,' and speak of 'a promise of blessing upon the individuals and nations who bless Abram's descendants and a curse lay upon those who persecute the Jew.' Critics say, 'For a nation to commit the sin of antisemitism brings inevitable judgment.' 'There was no Jew in the time of Abram.' 'The present day Israel... would be born of force forty years after his death.' Philip Morrow warned that 'the Schofield Bible' has 'usurped the place of authority that belonged to God's Bible alone.' Doctor Curley criticized Christian Zionism's effects."

The transcript argues that Oxford University Press launched a deliberate attack on Christianity by publishing the Schofield Reference Bible in 1908, a Bible whose notes purportedly inject reinterpretations that connect the future state of Israel to access to God. It states the book’s importance led OUP to open its first American branch, publishing it and promoting it through key American seminaries and Bible schools, thereby shaping future pastors’ beliefs to align with a peacemaking tradition favorable to the state of Israel. The speakers claim many pastors were unaware of the danger at the time, and that the Schofield Bible would later be used by secular powers to steer Christians toward political and financial servitude to present-day Israel. They assert American Christianity became increasingly Zionized after 1948 with the appearance of the state of Israel, aided by Oxford University Press’s Zionist influence and its New York publishing branch, which published the Schofield Reference Bible as a foundational document for Christian Zionism and evangelicalism, contributing to its growth through deception. The narrative links the founders of world Zionism, especially Chaim Weizmann, to efforts to involve the United States in World War I and to gain land in Palestine, arguing that a small number of dominant American scientists influenced President Wilson to enter the war, resulting in substantial American casualties while enabling Zionist aims in Palestine after the Balfour Declaration. The Schofield Reference Bible is described as copyrighted in 1909, an old and new testament with many notes added originally in the Old Testament, with later additions in the New Testament and a radical 1967 revision. The cover features Cyrus I. Scofield and an editorial board including James M. Gray, president of Moody Bible Institute, and other seminary leaders. Distribution allegedly occurred through seminaries, influencing new pastors who returned to churches with the Schofield Bible in hand. A critical examination of a page from Genesis 12:3 is used to illustrate the alleged distortions: the verse, part of the Torah and quoted in the Koran, is presented as a basis for Christians and Zionists to claim that present-day Israel should own all land in the Middle East beginning with Palestine. The 1967 Scofield edition reportedly contains more footnotes than the 1909 version, with a footnote claiming an unconditional promise of land to Israel forever, which the speakers assert is not stated in the passage. They argue that the footnotes render Abraham’s promise as a perpetual land grant to Israel, and that the note uses the later term “Jew” unjustly to describe biblical figures from before the existence of Judah or the Jews. The transcript contends that Oxford’s notes imply blessings or curses based on support for Israel, and that a nation’s supposed sin for not aiding Israel would invite divine judgment, a claim the speakers label as a form of antisemitism manufactured by Christian Zionism. They argue that the concept of national sin is flawed, and that individuals alone sin, not nations. Historical figures like Philip Morrow and Doctor F. Furman Curley are cited as Orthodox Christian critics who warned against dispensationalism and Christian Zionism. Morrow warned in 1927 that Schofield Bible had usurped authority from Scripture, while Curley in 1983 linked premillennialist advocacy of Israel to wars in the Middle East and urged Christians to seek peace rather than war, criticizing figures like Hal Lindsey and Jerry Falwell. The final note emphasizes that Jesus’ simple New Testament teachings do not support Christians taking life abroad, urging a reconsideration of the doctrine behind Christian Zionism.

Rick discusses a 1905 Bible to make a point about Palestine and Zionism. He notes that every church and Christian family had a Bible containing family genealogy, weddings, baptisms, and burials, passed down through generations. He points out that this particular Bible was published in 1905. He then contrasts it with the Schofield Bible, which wasn’t published until 1913, and mentions that he has an original 1913 Schofield in his office, calling it “the introduction of the Zionist heresies about a future state of Israel and separating the church from Israel and all that rapture stuff.” He emphasizes that this Bible is a pre-Schofield edition, with no Schofield notes. Opening the Bible, he shows a map of the Holy Land on page 13, and states, “Palestine,” noting that it says Palestine and omits “Israel.” He addresses listeners who claim that “there’s never been a Palestine,” specifically naming John Hagee as an example of those who claim it. He argues that the 1905 Bible map clearly shows Palestine, and asserts that most Bibles from that era had a map of Palestine. He asserts that “Palestine is in the Bible itself in the Old Testament.” Rick frames the map as evidence against what he calls propaganda or confusion purportedly planted by Zionists in the minds of millions of Christians in America. He repeats the claim that the Bible map from 1905 includes Palestine, using this to counter the belief that Palestine never existed. He concludes by affirming, “I have a map, Rick. There it is,” signaling that the map in his pre-Schofield Bible supports his point. Key points: - A 1905 Bible contains a map labeled “Palestine,” not “Israel.” - Schofield Bible (1913) is distinguished as introducing Zionist-era views of a future Israeli state and separation of the church from Israel. - The speaker asserts that Palestine is present in the Old Testament and that many Bibles of the era carried maps of Palestine. - The map is presented as counterevidence to claims that Palestine never existed, and is used to argue against what he describes as Zionist propaganda in American Christianity.

Christian Zionism, an influential movement in the US, is often overlooked. It predates Jewish Zionism and has gained popularity since the 19th century. Figures like Woodrow Wilson and Harry Truman, who read the Bible daily, are believers in biblical prophecies that promise land to Israel. This movement has expanded from elites to the masses, particularly with the rise of far-right evangelical Christians in the 1950s. They form a significant base for the Republican Party, supporting Israel fervently. However, their theology is both pro-Israel and anti-Semitic, as they believe that supporting Israel will lead to Armageddon, where only a small number of Jews will be saved. Despite the majority of Jewish support going to Democrats, the Republican Party remains more extreme in its backing of Israel due to this base.

I was once asked why evangelical Christians are so supportive of Jewish people and Israel. The answer is simple: you can be Jewish and have nothing to do with Christians, but I can't be Christian and not have everything to do with the Jewish people. My faith, scriptures, and everything I believe is built on that foundation. We are people of the book. If you read in Genesis that God blesses those who bless Israel and curses those who curse Israel, it becomes very clear.

Evangelical Christians in America strongly support Israel, a newer phenomenon in history. Christian Zionists believe Jews are God's chosen people, a view dating back a few hundred years. Replacement theology, claiming the church replaced Israel, fuels antisemitism. Historical figures like John Chrysostom and Saint Augustine expressed anti-Jewish sentiments. Throughout history, church leaders viewed Jews negatively, rejecting them as God's chosen people. This belief is relatively recent.

A version of the Bible was edited to include support for Israel, which has been used to rally evangelical backing for the country. This contradicts Christian beliefs, as supporting Israel could align with the arrival of the antichrist according to biblical predictions. Jews await their messiah, who they believe will rule the world from Israel, while Christians predict the antichrist will do the same. This creates a paradox in evangelical support for Israel.
