Israel Matters: Christian Zionism / A Damaging Ideology?

 

 

 

 "Then the LORD said to Abram, "Leave your country, your kindred, and your
father's household, and go to the land I will show you. I will make you into a
great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, so that you
will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who
curse you; and all the families of the earth will be blessed through you."
(Genesis 12:3)

 

"They will live in the land that I gave to My servant, Jacob, where your fathers lived.
They will live there forever with their children and grandchildren and My servant,
David, will be their prince forever." 
(Ezekiel 37:25)

"I will firmly plant them in their own land, never again to be uprooted
from the land that I have given them," says the LORD your God."
(Amos 9:15) 

Host Stephen Briggs discusses the controversial subject of Christian Zionism

Thursday's Thoughts: Is It True? Is It Harmless? Is It Necessary?

 

 

 

 "Even my name hisses...I am called Gossip..."

"And the serpent said unto the woman, "Ye shall not surely die. For God doth 
 know that in the day you eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, 
and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." 
(Genesis 3:4-5)

 

My name is Gossip. I have no respect for justice.

I maim without killing. I break hearts and ruin lives. 

I am cunning and malicious and gather strength with age.

The more I am quoted the more I am believed.

My victims are helpless. They cannot protect themselves

against me because I have no name or face.

To track me down is impossible. The harder you try,

the more elusive I become.

I am nobody's friend.

Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same.

I topple governments and wreck marriages.

I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights,

heartaches and indigestion.

I make innocent people cry in their pillows.

Even my names hisses. I am called Gossip.

I make headlines and headaches.

Before you repeat a story, ask yourself,

Is it true? Is it harmless? Is it necessary?

If it isn't, don't repeat it.
