A dangerous falsehood has taken root in modern Christianity: the belief that Christ’s Second Coming requires unwavering support for Israel—no matter the cost to Palestinian lives. This is not faith. It is political idolatry dressed as prophecy.
Why would Christ—who preached mercy, justice, and care for the oppressed—return to reward a state engaged in mass killing, collective punishment, and land theft? Why would God bless the starvation of children, the bombing of civilians, or the dispossession of an entire people dating back to 1947? To suggest this is to turn Christianity into a theology of cruelty.Christian Zionism does not honor Christ; it betrays him. It excuses barbarity as “God’s plan” and shields genocide from moral scrutiny. It teaches believers that silence—or worse, support—is righteousness. That is not biblical faith; it is moral abdication.
If Christianity means anything, it must stand against oppression, not sanctate it. God does not reward injustice. Christ does not return to applaud genocide. It is time for Christians to reject apocalyptic fantasies that justify suffering and to reclaim a faith rooted in accountability, compassion, and truth.
