Questions and Responses

Question: I asked a pastor [a question] about the end times and the nation of Israel. Here is the response I received: "As you probably know, those with a strongly dispensational view...

Question: I am being bombarded by material from friends insisting that as New Testament Christians we should still be...

Question: In November, you expressed displeasure with D. James Kennedy, R.C. Sproul, and others, who teach that Israel "has no special title to land in the Middle East, having been replaced by the church."...

Question: Do you know of the book, Blood Brothers, by Elias Chacour? The author is a Palestinian "Christian" [and] states, "In 1948 after a United Nations resolution, the country of Palestine became the sovereign state of Israel."

Question: We disagree with your premise on what God has in store for fleshly Israel, the nation. Neither the Old Testament nor the New Testament promises wholesale salvation for the Jews in the end times.

Question: Your "faultless" doctrines come ultimately from Jewish thinking.... Your eschatological errors didn't significantly exist in Christendom until Edward Irving, John Darby, the Plymouth Brethren, et al., came along with Jewish ideas.

Question: Why should Christians care about the Middle East in general, and specifically about Israel?

Question: I am enclosing some alarming literature from a very large and influential “evangelical” missionary agency....I was in shock because until they came out of the closet regarding [anti-]Zionism I supported them financially.

Question: You state that Jewish feasts "are specifically for Jews to keep...," but I fail to find any Scripture that so states or even so implies.

Question: Why is Israel giving up land—and when will she once again have all the land God promised her?
