Having been a member of the Presbyterian Church USA denomination years ago,
I am outraged at the latest affirmation this particular group has adopted.
As a liberal limb of the Presbyterians this denomination continues to reflect the political ideology of America rather than abide by the Word of God.
Instead of aligning themselves with Israel, they have decided it is the problem in the Middle East.

Zionism Unsettled: A Congregational Study Guide is the newest release from the Israel/Palestinian Mission Network of the Presbyterian Church, USA. Declaring Israel as a “human rights degradation” within the Palestinian people is the basis of this so-called newsletter.
Never mind that Israeli teachers walk around with rifles attached to their belts.
Forget the number of attacks in the last 5 years on the Israeli’s killing children and injuring many others.
Don’t remind the Palestinians of how many of their injured are treated and cared for by Israeli doctors and clinics.
The truth is the Palestinians have no military. For the most part the Palestinians are disorganized and unable to have efficient local entities to keep peace.
Israel has one of the best in the world and for obvious reasons. Rebel Palestinians use any means of weaponry against Israel and yet according to this journal and I quote,
“Zionism Unsettled explains accurately and concisely why it is essential to look at the theological roots of Zionism, and how it has appealed to both Jews and Christians, in order to understand the true nature of the long ordeal suffered by the Palestinian people, as well as the real roots of so much of the strife in the Middle East.”
According to the Anti-Defamation League’s press release this report reveals 4 reasons Israel is now considered the Presbyterian Church USA’s enemy and they are:
- Israel is the responsible party for the Palestinian conflict
- Israel has no right to a homeland
- Zionism is evil resulting in ethnic cleansing and cultural genocide
- If you are an American then you share in this evil against the Palestinians
God is clear about Israel. If you don’t support his people and homeland he will not support you. That includes governments and churches.

I totally agree, Cathy!
I watch and wonder as biblical truth about Israel becomes more and more unacceptable. It’s happening in my ex church too.

Debbie, I shouldn’t be surprised by this. It is more that I know so many of those people who go to this PSUSA church and they are educated and many are privileged. In fact a mess is going on with the building of the EPC church of which I have a membership there because of the college on that campus allowing liberals in. I am waiting to see what the Board will do along with many others because it is headed for closure unless money is found along with a real heart for God. I will post something soon when I know more. But talk about a huge financial and interwoven area. I will have to explain it at some point but it is in the very little town that Dr. Billy Graham lives.

I hope they do the right thing by God.

…….this is why we must always pray for Israel. Even our own President feels that Israel is the problem in the middle east….perhaps because he doesn’t believe in the God that is going to ultimately protect Israel?

Yes, the enemy has people believing his lies. Just wait; and watch. And out of the mire will rise one; another “David.” Small in stature, trustworthy, honest and brilliant. Just as David took down Goliath, so shall this new one take down all of Goliath’s friends. And they won’t know what hit them…..

Most denominational churches have adopted what is called Replacement Theology. A grave error of those who adhere to this false teaching. The church has not replaced Israel. As believers, we need to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and support Israel. “I bless those who bless you, and I curse those who curse you”

Freddy, this particular denomination has gone way left. In doing so it has wreaked havoc on other churches especially in this area where there is a college. However in their move to “Replacement Theology” they have lost many churches in their denomination. One of which was ours; the church that Dr. Billy Graham and his family attend.
