Are Christians Required by God to Support Israel — Even in Gaza and Iran?

This episode began with an honest question from a white evangelical Christian — a former Trump voter who reached out through the Hey Pastor Ben email series. He asked: “Is it really required for Christians to support Israel no matter what they do? Or is there room for us to question — and still be faithful?” That question has shaped the theology of millions, influenced foreign policy, funded war, and been used to claim that God demands allegiance to a government in order to give His blessing. Th...

9-17-24 | Jill Stein Can't Condemn Putin | Devastating Polls for Trump | The Anti-Immigrant Anti-Christ

I think it's important to state a few things on this episode: You can vote for whoever you want. I certainly support any Arab, Muslim, or Palestinian's decision to vote for whoever they want or not to vote at all. My beef is with people who downplay the war crimes and imperialism of Vladimir Putin, Bashar al-Assad, and the bloodshed in Ukraine. Further, anyone who -- save them being victims of Netanyahu and Biden's war crimes in Gaza -- anyone who downplays the very real threat that MAGA poses t...

This has fueled the belief among many Israelis that Netanyahu has directly bolstered the Hamas militant faction. In 2015, Netanyahu's controversial comments linking a Muslim l...
