In the last three years, this concerned, committed, thoughtful Christian has searched to learn-and do something- about the heretical and inherently anti-Semitic theology of Christian Zionism, for in my hometown in Florida, I have not found one church, priest or pastor who even seems aware of the facts on the ground in the Holy Land, nor the danger of the Left Behind theology which is in bed with the political ideology of the neo-conservatives.

I didn't even have a clue as to how little I knew about what was going down in the Holy Land until my first journey in June 2005, when I passed through my first checkpoint and entered into the Little Town of Bethlehem, which is Occupied Territory.

What I witnessed and viscerally felt in my gut was the injustices of oppression caused by a military occupation that denies human rights to innocent ones simply because they were born on the wrong side of the tracks ; in the West Bank and Gaza.

"The origins of 'Christian Zionism' lie within nineteenth-century British premillennial sectarianism, but by the early twentieth century it had become a predominantly American dispensational movement, and pervasive within all main evangelical denominations. The contemporary Christian Zionism movement emerged after the 'Six Day War' in Israel in 1967, and it has had a significant influence on attitudes towards the ongoing Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Middle East. Evangelicals are increasingly polarized over whether Christian Zionism is biblical and orthodox or unbiblical and cultic." [2]

"The "father of modern dispensationalism" John Nelson Darby was born in Ireland, in the year 1800, and died in 1882. He was an honor student in Westminster and Trinity College, where he studied law, and worked as a lawyer until he became a curate in the Church of England until 1827, when he joined the Brethren movement. Darby, along with the rest of the Brethren, claimed to have been given many "rediscovered truths." These alleged truths supposedly had been taught by the apostles, and then lost sight of. Even the great Reformers had not known of these doctrines. These "rediscovered truths" were, in fact, the direct opposite of all historic Christian teachings proclaimed by the Reformers and extant commentaries. Even some of Darby's best friends hesitated at some of his doctrines. He was accused of heresy a number of times." [3]
