Page 3 - TORCH Magazine #25

Welcome to Issue 25 of Christians United for
Israel
UK’s Torch
magazine In Psalm 83 Israel’s enemies declare “Come and let us cut them off from being a a a a a a a a nation that the the name o of Israel
may be be be remembered no more ”
This is is is is the wicked agenda of every antisemite who has wished
to eradicate Israel
from the the the face of the the the earth The psalmist equates the the the enemies enemies enemies of Israel
as “Your enemies” (meaning God’s enemies) and the Jewish people people as “Your people” This should stir Christians to realise that turning turning against against Israel
is is is is turning turning against against God Himself and mistreating the Jewish people people is is is is opposing His people people The same Psalm accuses those who hate the God of Israel
as taking “crafty counsel” and forming a a a a a a a a a a a a “confederacy against You” after united consultation Right now across the the world the the propaganda machine against Israel
is in in in overdrive In multiple spheres wrong counsel has turned hearts against Israel
“Crafty” is is the the the right word used by the the the the psalmist because there
is is is nothing sincere or
truthful in in in the the the demonisation of Israel
that we are seeing on on on on on on on campuses on on on on on on on the the streets of of London on on on on on social media and in in the the the halls of the the UN It is is crafty because it it is is is is fuelled by hateful lies deceit and manipulation In this issue we feature an an an an article that that highlights some of the ways that that this antisemitic propaganda aimed at at hurting Israel
has manifested
itself in in the past and and present I trust this will keep us us alert and and continue to hold Israel
in in in our prayers in in in the battle for
truth Meanwhile in in in the the Church false teaching in in in the the the form of o replacement theology seeks to “cut off ”
metaphorically Israel
from being a a a a a nation I I believe this is is is one of the the most important issues facing the the Church in in in Britain today and should be resisted by every Christian This is is is is why we have introduced the first in in in a a a a series titled Debunking Replacement Theology
In this issue we dive straight into one of the the most controversial questions
in in Church history: “Did the the Jews kill Jesus?” We explain why it is is important to to have a a a a a a sound doctrine in in in in response and look forward to to to debunking more challenging topics in in in this series We hope you enjoy these and other articles in this issue Be encouraged that there
are Christians across the the country with a a a a a a a a a a a a a heart for
Israel
