This is a very interesting article. The Christian Zionists are
lining up with Israel while the replacement theology adherents
are lining up with the Muslims. The battle line is being drawn.
End Muslim occupation, Eldad tells Christian group

National Union MK meets Christian Zionists as part of fourth
Jerusalem Assembly, calls for annexation of Judea and samaria.
National Union MK Arye Eldad called for the annexation of Judea
and Samaria in a speech to a large group of Christian Zionists
who came to the Knesset on Tuesday for the fourth Jerusalem
Assembly.
In cooperation with the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus, the
assembly brought together 115 pastors and lay leaders from
around the world who represent tens of thousands of churches and
hundreds of millions of Christians. Over two days, they heard
many lectures from MKs, academics and pastors about the Middle
East conflict and the biblical attachment of the Jewish people
to the land of Israel, but Eldad’s speech especially enthralled
them.
“The entire world wants two states for two peoples and to end
the occupation,” Eldad said. “I am in favor of ending the Muslim
occupation that began in the seventh century and establishing a
Palestinian state in Jordan. This might have been questioned a
few years ago but after what is called the Arab Spring, it is
becoming increasingly likely. After Bashar Assad falls in Syria,
Jordan will be next and it will become the Palestinian state it
already is.”
Eldad said the help of Christian Zionists was more important
than ever, because there are too many Jews in Israel for whom
Israel has become mere real estate and not a homeland. The group
was also addressed by MK David Rotem (Israel Beiteinu), who
heads the caucus.
Pastor Charlotte Phillips of Glory Center Ministries in Maryland
said she hoped Israel would hold on to all of the land of
Israel, citing the Biblical comparisons between Israel and a
tree.
“We need the boundaries of God,” she said. “We know there is
talk of land for peace. We say hold fast, steadfast, and
unmovable.”
Bishop Quintin Moore, who represents a communion of 80,000
churches all over the world, said he would advise US President
Barack Obama “to open his heart for the right of Israel to
govern herself.”
Former congressman Mike Sodrel (RGeorgia) spoke about the role
of Hyam Solomon in founding the United States in 1776 and
America’s role in recognizing Israel when it was established in
1948.
“Maybe the United States was established for the purpose of
recognizing His nation,” Sodrel said. “America has blessed
Israel, America needs Israel, and America will continue to be
blessed as long as it blesses Israel
