CHRISTIAN ZIONISM WEBINAR: COURSE MATERIAL

From 21 June-12 July we, in partnership with Church for Middle East Peace, hosted an online mini-series exploring Christian Zionism.

If you missed any of the webinars in our 4-part series or would like to watch them again, or take a closer look at the presentations, you can do so here.

WHAT IS CHRISTIAN ZIONISM?

Christian Zionists argue that Zionism and the creation of the state of Israel should be seen as the fulfillment of biblical promises and prophecies and therefore tend to be very supportive of Israel. But is this the only way to use the Bible to understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? What do Old Testament writers say about the nation of Israel and the promised land? And how do New Testament writers interpret these Old Testament promises and prophecies? What does it mean for Christians today to be peacemakers and hunger and thirst after righteousness/justice?
