very many, but they are vocal and steeped in the Israeli ways,
and they are beginning to make an impact on the nation.

I asked if there are any Sabra evangelists of a bold nature,
and Zamir said there were two or three who were outspoken,
and were getting to be well known in the country. This is
important because the Israeli government will have a difficult
time interfering with native Israelis. Until recently, they tried to

There are already some anti-evangelical movements develop­
ing in Israel. One rabbi has a weekly class in Jerusalem designed

attends these rabbinical classes to respond to these polemical
teachings. That makes for a lively class!

The King of Kings Bible College campus in Jerusalem is
located in a three-story residential building, which we might call
a condominium. It has offices, classrooms and a larger room on
the first floor for a Messianic congregation associated with the
school.

In Tel Aviv, the Anglican Church has turned over to the
college a building for them to use, so they are pretty well
equipped to carry out their teaching ministry. In time, they
hope to establish a true theological seminary, so that they can
more fully train their ministers in a country which prizes
education and whose rabbis are among the best educated people
in the world.

THE GALILEE EXPERIENCE

In Tiberias, the largest city on the Sea of Galilee, we met with
other people who were deeply engaged in spreading the Gospel
to Israel. They operate "The Galilee Experience," which is the
educational and evangelistic arm of a business consortium called
Galco.

The Galilee Experience invites tourists and local people to an
auditorium on the shore of the Sea of Galilee where they view a
