About this listen

This book is about an idea - namely, that Scripture mandates a Jewish return to the historical region of Palestine - which in turn morphed into a political movement, rallied around a popular slogan ("A country without a nation for a nation without a country"), and eventually contributed to the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948. Christian Zionism continues to influence global politics, especially US foreign policy, and has deeply affected Jewish-Christian and Muslim-Christian relations.

Donald M. Lewis seeks to provide a fair-minded, longitudinal study of this dynamic yet controversial movement as he traces its lineage from biblical sources through the Reformation to various movements of today. He explores Christian Zionism's interaction with other movements, forces, and discourses, especially in eschatological and political thought, and why it is now flourishing beyond the English-speaking world. Throughout, he demonstrates how it has helped British and American Protestants frame and shape their identity.

A Short History of Christian Zionism seeks to bring clarity and context to often-heated discussions.

informative to a Point

Here in 2024 we are not suffering from 'demonised' Arabs, not 'lionised' Israelites. So when this gets discussed in 13. American Christian Zionist Activities and Organizations, it's not correct, neither is the unspiritual way that proselytising and other biblical Christian atitudes are discussed.
Best this kind of academic stays away from the spiritual weight for those of us who follow biblical precepts. The Spirit is moving all the time, as are the demons in charge of the antisemites. so none of it can be set down in concrete, and an awful lot of secular misunderstanding, keeps changing shape also.
