Jerusalem Church Leaders Warn Against “Christian Zionism”

The Patriarchs and Heads of the Churches in Jerusalem issued a statement describing “Christian Zionism” as a damaging ideology that sows confusion and disunity.

The statement asserts that “Christian” Zionists promote authorities outside of Christ, thereby sowing disunity.

It claims that introducing these subversive political actors, notably from Israel, harms the pastoral mission of the Churches in the Holy Land and could potentially undermine Christian presence and representation in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East.

The Patriarchs and Heads of the Churches ask the Lord to grant wisdom for the protection of His people and His witness in the Holy Land.
