- For an influential group of American Christians, support for Israel -- and hatred of Iran -- are based in a biblical prophecy.

When President Trump authorized the drone strike that killed the powerful Iranian general Qasem Soleimani, he wasn't just flexing America's muscle in the Middle East.
He was also acting on the advice of a politically powerful group of evangelical Christians who believe that the US and Israel are part of the Bible's plan to bring about the second coming of Jesus.
Once considered a fringe element of the religious right, evangelical Christian Zionists are playing an increasingly visible role in Republican politics. Today, unprecedented access to the Trump administration has given them an opportunity to reshape the Middle East.

Isn't there a thing in America about separating Church and State?
Nope that died with the last administration.
Secularism is too complicated for Trump to even spell.
Yup, the establishment clause
Thats not a thing just in america but in christianity
No such thing
The Bible is 100% accurate. Especially when thrown at close range.
Agreed! I've thrown many bibles and all of them fall straight in the dumpster 😂
101% accurate shots with a scope
Bruuuuhhhhh 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Sometimes it shifts it’s course and falls on the head of those who believe their superiority but it never misses
What does it mean
If Jesus did come again these people would crucify him
Since he was Brown they would probably deport him first.
This!!!!!
No they wouldnt, he wouldn't come in human form, he would come in spiritual form
He is coming again. But not to be sacrificed. He’s coming to take his people and destroy the beast system that they are pushing right now. If you want proof of bible prophecy read Isaiah 53 where he tells about the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ 700 years before it happened. Trust in the living God not man. Repent and believe the gospel before it’s too late.

The Bible says "Thy shall not murder" and "Love thy neighbor" and "love thy enemies" and "be slow to anger" and encourages us to be gentle and kind and loving. Not hostile or discriminatory or vengeful or greedy.
That being said, No one is anywhere near perfect, that includes christians.
GOD can use anyone
@@vvskiitlesvv I agree, God can certainly use these people. However, clearly they are not applying the word of God to their very public actions, which could end up costing people's souls and eternities.
@Chuck Nelson That is the old testament, instructions for those specific people at that specific time. That chapter does not mean christians today should do any of what was instructed back then, it wasn't instructed to all christians. The midianites brought s*xual immorality, idolatry and human sacrifice to the Israelites of that time (Numbers 25)
Numbers 31 is God's righteous judgement and punishment upon the midianites for corrupting God's people.
That is God's vengeance on sin, that passage is not condoning that behavior for anyone but the people it was instructed to- and certainly not now that Jesus has taken God's rightful vengeance upon Himself on our behalf.
The old testament is before Christ took all of Gods wrath upon Himself, so in Numbers 31, God's wrath was still necessary.
However, the new testament is after Christ took Gods wrath upon Himself.
Jesus allowed God to forgive us of our sins, meaning punishment (like that God gave to the Midianites) is not necessary anymore.
The majority of christians follow the ways of the new testament. Aiming to be peacemakers, loving towards everyone, even our enemies, gentle, kind, generous, forgiving, christ-like and slow to anger.
But that doesn't mean we are or claim to be perfect- we recognize we are sinners and imperfect, if we were perfect, we wouldn't need Jesus.
I understand if you don't agree with me, but if you read the new testament, you will see that it does not encourage violence or greed, but only peace and love.
Have a good day☺️

Whew, I'm glad that the US has separation of church and state.
Wait a second...
Steve Guacamole if your president is a Christian, then ofc the Bible will influence his decisions.
Since when? The Church delivered me to the Tulsa county courts. The state of Oklahoma is very involved in the Church right now. I'm being persecuted as proof. Jesus Christ SAVED me Feb 5, 2019 and I have been rejected by the Church every since. And now I have to tell my story in the court. Jesus and fulfillment Biblical Prophecy is in my life and has been my life before I believed in Scripture. Jesus made a believer out of me and I am dedicated to Jesus and to HIS REVELATION OF HIS RETURN!
Nonsense statement. The US is a democratic republic, it lets its people shape policy based on their values and beliefs. Separation of Church and State is specifically about the State not having power to outlaw beliefs of its people, while the people are free to vote/influence the government based, again, on their values and beliefs.
Good on paper but hard to put into practice because of human error.

"I am not the Catholic candidate for president. I am the Democratic party's candidate for president, who happens also to be a Catholic. I do not speak for my church on public matters, and the church does not speak for me,"

❤
Yup... gotta love those catholic boys. Good boys during the day, sinners at night.
JFK was considered a positive proponent for equality in the usa. He tried to change the bigotry and racism in the usa. Unfortunately there were those that didn't believe in equality and helping those that couldn't help themselves. Who really killed him will always be an issue given the climate of d.c. and the things we see happening in the current administration.
But JFK kept his beliefs so separate, he had a wife and a mistress. 😉
Andrea Tomonaga it was still separate and that’s all I care about.
Also a reminder that Bernie is Jewish and would become the first Jewish US President if elected.
Andrea Tomonaga We’re ALL sinners! “He who is without sin, cast the first stone” And they ALL left.
So Christian Zionism is literally:
Step 1. Jews in Israel
Step 2. Expel enemies
Step 3. ???
Step 4. Jesus
BODY IS THE TEMPLE
2ND TEMPLE HEART MORAL COMPASS
3RD TEMPLE IS THE MIND BOTH HALVES OF BRAIN FUNCTION
@@prateeksharma6706 Jesus will come back and separate believers from unbelievers .But unbelievers will get another change to believe .Theres videos about it
Actually, the Bible says NOTHING about Christ returning when the Temple is complete. The Bible says The Abomination of desolation will sit on the Throne in the newly rebuilt Temple. This is NOT Jesus, but rather someone claiming to BE Jesus who will fool the entire world, in other words, the Anti Christ.
So yes, to fulfill Bible Prophesy, Jews will return to Israel, They'll rebuild the Temple and then get ready to run for the hills (as Jesus says in the Bible). Hopefully, this won't happen for another 50 years but with Agenda 2030, it's likely to happen sooner than that.
One last thing, Jesus will be coming for us, but he won't be on the ground, he'll be in the air and we meet him in the clouds (according to scripture). As long as you remember that, you won't fall for any false Christs. Jesus himself said, there will be alot of people saying they are me, don't believe any of them. God bless!
And this is in direct contradiction to Jesus real teachings, no where in scriptures ie. the new testament did our Lord and savior teach this heresy, it is in direct contradiction to His teachings,
all of it from the rebuilding of the temple to the violence that takes place, we true believers do not believe this. but many of our brethren are, and must come to that conclusion for themselves. and many have seen the truth and walked away,
Jesus taught that His kingdom is not of this world if it were then his disciples would fight. but he said now it is not of this world the battle he said is a spiritual one and his followers are to fight it in prayer on their knees and to tell the world about his love for us, all and how repentance and faith in him saves us,
He said that "true love does not harm to another" Jesus was not a politician He was / is the savior of all who believe of all races,
and political stripes if they turn from their sins and ask his forgiveness he will forgive and set them free from their sins and the guilt that goes with wrong doing, and place our feet on the right path.
so i say to you be safe, be saved in Jesus name. this "Christian?" Zionism is not of God.

Yes, the writings of the Abrahamic religions are the problem, they have deceived and enslaved this world.
@John Chrysostom Rev 3:9 , Abrahamism is Satanism.
You're right about America's hypocrisy on extremism.
But the Bible, and the abrahamic texts in general are also to blame, if they weren't so vague and filled with exhortations to violence and xenophobia we might not be in such a mess.
Like Ilhan Omar? Yeah right!
@@ShinSennju The bible was written for its time and then interpreted by younger people. It's not vague for it's timeline.
For example, when the bible calls people slaves, they were talking about people that owe money and had to work to pay it back. The people in that time knew what the bible meant and also spoke the language. Its up to the interpreters to use modern words for us to understand, for example, some bibles call them bondservants.

And still some of the people believe that the problem of Palestine is political and it has nothing to do with religion.
If it were political, it would've ended long time ago.
it's also political. for example, trump espouses evangelical beliefs (rather half-assedly) not because he actually holds those beliefs, but because he knows his voter base does. the problem is that the politics are inextricably tied to the respective parties' religious beliefs, and this gets in the way of resolving the conflict in any meaningful way that doesn't favor one or the other
It's political ,they even wanted to build their country In Argentina
It's all about hastening the arrival of the anti Christ I. E. Messiah for the juice.
i honestly don't think ANYBODY thinks that. any remotely educated person knows that it's a religious conflict primarily.

I only glad that God is for everyone not only Israel, you can choose to believe in Him or not, it's up to you. Whoever the king is, God still number one.

But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:7
Old Testament justice or New Testament forgiveness; which did Jesus preach? Which do Christians follow?
You’re right, but it wasn’t ‘God’ that says that, it was Jesus, his Son.
That's correct, though it's Christ that says it. And context is important. Read what these believers said to Christ before he told them this.

theocracy at its finest
Preachers manipulating their followers, (and becoming personally wealthy in the process) using their interpretation of an ancient mythological book. And, what's worse, having political influence over politicians who have their hands on nuclear weapons. Maybe Armageddon comes, but not in the form in which the preachers have taught.
If there really had been a Jesus, and he still exists, and is observing our world, one can only imagine his disgust.

When did it become Arabic land? Or how? Was Jerusalem or Bethlehem not historically linked to Jewish history. Did their ancestors not build the cities? Come on their entire history is linked to that land. What is now modern day Turkey, a Turkish leader invaded and took over Jerusalem about 400 years ago. The same thing happened over and over again before that too. The Jews would lose their land be exiled and then they would come back to reclaim it back from whomever took it. They were exiled to Persia taken as slaves for over 70 years. What happened? every single time they return to take it back. What is so different now? It is history repeating itself. Get over it. This is far bigger than just about Palestine losing land.

@@niagarawarrior9623 Sounds like something a person who plays a lot video games would say.
They ignore the prophecy in Genesis which is a stronger motivator. While many evangelicals will disagree with the eschatological position described in the video. The other side of it is the prophecy to Abraham passed down to his descendant, "those who curse you will be cursed, those who bless you will be blessed." Basically, this is a promise to Abraham that is practically a promise to his supporters aswell. And though this carries over to his spiritual descendants (christians), it also still resides on his physical descendants, Israel.
People ...God has a covenant with Abraham he will always protect them!
P.S. 1/3 of Jews believe in Jesus Christ
the Book of Proverbs says:
_If your enemies are hungry, give them bread to eat; and if they are thirsty, give them water to drink_ [6].

The Bible also says:
“For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it must be put to death.”
It doesn’t say they should be put to death. Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings. Leviticus 23:3

I don't want to inflict on other Christians but as an Orthodox Christian I believe some things are literal however most things are metaphorically meant to teach a lesson (such as the Parable of the Sower.

well this was terribly depressing
This is related to what Prophet Muhammad told us about Al Masih Dajjal, which I agree with you, very depressing.
If you are interested, you might want to search about Dajjal in Islam, which if you learned about it, you will understand what the video tell you about. I can only assure you, this video is not that depressing compare to when you know about Dajjal itself, which is the mastermind behind the scene of all this.
E One depressing? I’m a Christian and I do not find that depressing
@@NoNo-qj3ef because you don't know the real story about Dajjal, that's why. And another reason is that Dajjal will find his followers from christians. One day when he announce his arrival, most christian that day will be deceive by Dajjal into thinking him as messiah himself and will follow him because they didn't recognize who is he actually but real Muslims learned about him.
Just like I said, this video is not that depressing because it only scratch at surface. Wait until you learn the real thing. Most Muslims that learn about Dajjal knows what this video all about.
Still to this day, the biggest lie in America is that there is a fair separation of church and state.
How could it even be done? It's trying to separating people's beliefs from themselves.
Having a complete separation from church and state is virtually impossible, religion has an impact on everyone and everything even if it has gone unnoticed.
Raven Separation of church and state is actually based on a letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to a pastor the pastor asked Thomas Jefferson go to government run the churches and Thomas Jefferson said no we will not allow that that is the actual separation of church and state it does not mean that church stays out of government it means government stays out of church affairs
@@arielslack7015 But then why the church want to run the government if the government can't run the church? There are many religions not only Christianity, how will Americans feel if their Christian president convert to islam during his tenure? That's why this separation is important.
