Faith under fire: Netanyahu calls out efforts to divide Christians and Israel in US
Share this @internewscast.com

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a warning regarding attempts in the United States and internationally to undermine the alliance between Christians and Jews.

At an event in Jerusalem last month, attended by Pastor Paula White-Cain, who serves as a spiritual advisor to President Donald Trump and leads the White House Office of Faith and Anti-Semitism, Netanyahu emphasized the partnership that fosters Judeo-Christian values and safeguards Christians in Israel like nowhere else in the Middle East. He asserted that this truth is being turned upside down.

“As part of this campaign,” he continued, Israel is now being portrayed as a threat to Christians.”

Netanyahu highlighted that Israel is home to a flourishing Christian community, which is distinctive in a region where Christians frequently face harassment. He cited Nazareth as an example of vibrant Christian life, contrasting it with Bethlehem, where the Christian population drastically decreased from 80% to less than 20% following Israel’s withdrawal and the Palestinian Authority’s assumption of control, resulting in fewer protections for the community.

“At the core of this narrative is the belief that Israel’s existence lacks legitimacy. This assertion is not made about any other nation worldwide, regardless of its origins. This mindset endangers Jewish lives. Anti-Zionism equals antisemitism,” he stated.

“I urge Bible-believing Christians to promote a biblical worldview recognizing Israel as the land of the Bible. The evangelical Protestant church in Germany at the time allied with the Nazi party, adorned altars with swastikas, and believed God had sent the chancellor.

“This occurred because they dismissed a biblical worldview and accepted what is known as ‘replacement theology.’ This is why I have created a comprehensive curriculum to educate the church and its leaders,” Evans remarked.

David Parsons, Senior Vice President and Spokesman of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem (ICEJ), told Fox News Digital that Christian support for Israel — rooted in decades, if not centuries, of history—has grown to unprecedented levels, though it is being heavily tested amid the war against Hamas in Gaza.

“It predates Trump and Netanyahu, it will be there after those leaders are gone,” he said.

“We have to pass the baton to a new generation, and this is where the challenge is coming, as a lot of the young Christians aren’t buying into the same rationale as their parents to support Israel, which a lot of it was based on certain prophetic scenarios and prophecy charts about Israel’s role,” he continued.

“We see it as God being faithful to his covenant promises to the patriarch Abraham 4,000 years ago. If God is faithful to what he promised Jewish people millennia ago, then he will be faithful to what he’s promised us under the new covenant,” he said.

Parsons noted that bringing young Christians to experience Israel firsthand helps cultivate that connection.

“A lot of the young evangelical supporters of Israel are not in some of these elite universities where they’re being poisoned against Israel, and so we have hope,” he said.

“When you see the amazing things that Israel has done — the pager operation [against Hezbollah], how they defeated Iran in 12 days — if you’re a young person, you have to be impressed with Israel’s creativity and ingenuity,” he continued. “Eventually, once we get a resolution of the Gaza situation, there will be a whole new generation of Christians that are curious enough to come and check it out.”
