Palestinian Christian Minister on Christian Zionism

I have a thing for the Rev. Munther Isaac, as readers of this blog know.

In this clip, he tells Ashfaaq Carim that it's shocking how distant Christian Zionists are from the way of Jesus. He says the “Bible has been weaponised by the empire” to justify colonialism and our intoxication with power. He also said that if given the opportunity to speak with influential Christian Zionist leaders such as John Haygee, he would call on him to “repent”. 

One thing that keeps getting swept under the rug is that Palestinian Christians are being persecuted by the state of Israel, yet Christian Zionists don't seem to care that they contribute to the persecution of other Christians by their love of "Israel".

Yes, God gave Israel to the "Jews", yet that gift was conditional on the "Jewish" people being a light to the world. The Jews have been expelled twice from the Holy Land because they were not keeping up their end of the bargain. And once again, "Israeli-Jews" are destroying this sacred land.

It is God who needs to create an "Israel", not man.
