'The Pulpit Has Become Quiet': Jerusalem Hosts 1,000 Pastors to Support Jewish State, Combat Antisemitism
JERUSALEM, Israel – More than one thousand pastors and Christian influencers are in the Holy Land this week. Organizers call it the largest gathering of its kind since Israel's founding.
A partnership between Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Friends of Zion Museum led to the unprecedented visit.
Friends of Zion founder Mike Evans told CBN News, "It's the first time in history the State of Israel has officially partnered with 1,000 strategic pastors to commission them as ambassadors to combat antisemitism and reach the youth of their generation.”
Evans believes Israel's fight is not just on the battlefield.
“Right now, there's an ideological war that Israel is losing," he stated. "So, they need the Evangelicals, they need the Zionists, to fight an ideological war. Demons don't clear customs, and this ideological war’s massive. And it's being funded by countries like Qatar and others through an antichrist-type AI, and to pound away with bots and to marginalize people and silence them.”
One of the goals of the gathering is to strengthen Christian support during a time of rising global antisemitism. They say the pulpit must speak louder than the propaganda.
U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee told us, “So it's just, I think an extraordinary time for pastors to go to their pulpits and to speak with clarity and with boldness and to push back on the antisemitism, the bigotry that is being pushed toward Jewish people and toward the people of Israel.”
