Evangjelistet dhe Izraeli

[Qafir Arnaut]

Nje nga teleevangjelistet me ekstremiste Amerikane e thote troc mendimin e tij:

Israel and the Jewish People

Q. Why are you so outspoken in your support of Israel and the Jewish people? What relevance does the Bible have to the Middle East today?

A. The support of Israel is a biblically based mandate for every Christian. All other nations were created by an act of men, but God Himself established the boundaries of the nation of Israel. God gave to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob a covenant of land that was eternally binding, and it's recorded in the book of Genesis. God also told Abraham that He would make Abraham's descendants into a great nation and through them He would bless all the families of the earth. In the same passage, God said He would "bless those who bless you" (Abraham), and "curse him who curses you" (Gen. 12:3). That gets my attention. I want to be blessed, not cursed, by God.

The Bible shows God as the protector and defender of Israel. Psalm 121:4 says that He never slumbers or sleeps in His watching over the nation of Israel. The prophet Zechariah said that the Jewish people are "the apple of God's eye" (2:8). Any nation that comes against Israel is, in effect, poking God in the eye-not a very wise thing to do! If God created Israel, if God defends Israel, if God considers Israel the apple of His eye, then it is logical to say that those who stand with Israel are standing with God.

Every Christian should remember the debt of gratitude the Christian community owes to the Jewish community. The Jewish people do not need Christianity to explain their existence or their origin. But Christians cannot explain their existence without Judaism. It was the Jewish people who gave us the written Scripture. They gave us the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They gave us the disciples and the apostle Paul. The Jewish people gave to Christianity the first Christian family, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus-our Savior! If you take away the Jewish contribution to Christianity, there is nothing left.

Geopolitically speaking, we should support Israel because it is the only true democracy in the Middle East. The tiny democracy of Israel is surrounded by feudal states and brutal dictatorships that control vast regions of land and oil resources. The presence of the Israeli Defense Forces brings stability to that part of the world.

The current conflict in the Middle East is not just about land; it's about Israel's right to exist as a nation. The land has never belonged to the people who now call themselves Palestinians. The area was named Palestine by the Romans, but there has never been a nation called Palestine, and there is no Palestinian language. Before 1948 these people were Egyptians, Syrians, Jordanians, Iraqis, and citizens of other Arab nations who had moved to the region. They were displaced by the war of 1948, but Israel is not occupying their territory.

Yasser Arafat and the Palestinian Authority clearly do not want peace. During the Clinton Administration they were offered a Palestinian State with part of Jerusalem as its capital, along with control of 97 percent of the West Bank-everything their own negotiators had said was requisite for peace. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak agreed to the deal, but Yasser Arafat turned it down flat. He walked away from peace, sending a tacit message to the terrorists, who continue their slaughter of innocent lives in their pursuit of destruction of the Jewish State.

tele-evangjelistet? aha! po i nenvlehteson.

evangjelistet komandoje tere ameriken. bushin e di katolik zotrote?

para se ta lexoja postin tend e dija katolik megjithse ne amerike ska katolike ne pergjithsi...po pasi e lexova jam shum i shokuar te marr vesh qe qeka evangjelist

po prap se kuptoj qellimin e temes...ndoshta esht hap per shock-value

po prap se kuptoj qellimin e temes...ndoshta esht hap per shock-value

Evangjelistet, te cilet me kane dhene arsim te larte, kane arritur rreth 70 milione, dhe qe prej disa dekadash kane nisur te vene ne perdorim voten e tyre per te influencuar drejtimin qe merr shteti laik Amerikan. Se fundmi, kane hequr dore nga anti-semitizmi i tyre tradicional (i pari i tyre Martin Luther ka qene anti-semit i cmendur ). Teologjia deri me pare ka qene qe kontrata me zotit dhe popullit te vet te zgjedhur u anullua me ardhjen ne skene te Jezu Krishtit. Ndersa sot teologjia e tyre thote qe kontrata nuk u anullua thjesht u zgjerua duke shtrire me gjere kuptimin e popullit Izrael. Kjo teologji i ben ata mbeshtetes te Izraelit. Mbi te gjitha ata e shohin krijimin e shtetit te Izraelit si hap i pare drejt dites te Qametit.

Qafir arnaut, me duket se paske ndjekur nje emision ne Channel4, ne rast se ndodheni ne u.k. Ne fakt ishin dy emisioni qe benin fjale per fondamentalizmin dhe evangjelizmin, dhe armagedonin (ose sic e cileson bibla fundin e botes). Ne fakt fondamentalistet, evangjelistet nuk jane asgje tjeter vecse te njejte. Evangjelistet jane nje pjese (kristian) ndersa fondamentalistet jane islamiket e jihadit. Ne mos gabohem ne ate emision theksohej se si evangjilistet e kishin ndryshuar emrin nga fondamentaliste, ne evangjeliste si pasoje e fillimit te revulocionit islamik fondamentalist te iranit ne vitet '70. Por ne vertete evangjelistet nuk jane asgje tjeter vecse kristian neo -konservative te cilet influencuan thelle ne politiken e jashtme te pentagonit. padyshim ishin kushti kryesor qe bushi fitoi zhjedhjet ne' 2000. Keta dy emisione me shokuan me pasi keta jane njerez qe besojne se fundi botes eshte shume afer. Nuk jane aspak te modernizuar, nuk besojne ne kushtetute, ne lirite themelore te demokracise, ecin sips ligjeve te bibles apo kuranit. Shkencen e kane armikun kryesor, ngrohja e planetin thone eshte nje hap ne permbushjen e profecise se tyre pra fundin e botes. A jane keta brain washers? influenca e tyre po zmadhohet percdodite e me shume.

[Christian Zionism:] Israel's Best Weapon?
by Daniel Pipes
New York Post
July 15, 2003

Middle Easterners were widely puzzled in early 1994 when some leading American politicians, including Sen. Jesse Helms (R-N.C.) and Rep. Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.), forwarded more assertive, tougher positions vis-à-vis the Palestinians than did the government of Israel. They were, for example, more reluctant than Jerusalem to let U.S. funds go to the PLO and they displayed more eagerness to move the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

One Arabic newspaper, Ash-Sharq al-Awsat, captured the general bafflement when it observed that Likud, Israel's more nationalist party, had "lost in Israel but it still rules supreme in Washington."

The same pattern is again visible these days, as Christian leaders such as Gary Bauer, Jerry Falwell and Richard Land more vocally oppose the "road map" for Palestinian-Israeli diplomacy than nearly all their Jewish counterparts. But this bold Christian solidarity with Israel should not be surprising, as it manifests a Christian form of Zionism that is nearly two centuries old.

Christian support for the creation of a Jewish state originated in England, becoming a significant movement in the Victorian period. In 1840, the British foreign secretary, Lord Palmerston, "strongly" recommended that the Ottoman government then ruling Palestine "hold out every just encouragement to the Jews of Europe to return to Palestine." Lord Shaftesbury in 1853 coined the phrase "A land without a people for a people without a land."

George Eliot put these ideas in novel form with Daniel Deronda in 1876. In 1891, Sir George Adam Smith wrote in his authoritative Historical Geography of the Holy Land that the Ottomans had to be pushed out of Palestine and replaced by the Jews, "who have given to Palestine everything it has ever had of value to the world."

That same year, 1891, saw perhaps the greatest early Christian support in the United States for a Jewish state - the "Blackstone Memorial," a petition that carried the signatures of 413 prominent Americans, including the chief justice of the Supreme Court, the speaker of the House, the greatest industrialists of the age (Rockefeller, Morgan, McCormick), famous clergymen, writers and journalists.

Addressed to the president of the United States, Benjamin Harrison, and the secretary of state, James G. Blaine, the memorial asked them to "use their good offices and influence . . . to secure the holding at an early date of an international conference to consider the condition of the Israelites and their claims to Palestine as their ancient home." According to one historian, Paul Charles Merkley, the Blackstone Memorial had the effect of "firmly planting in many minds" the "notion of American sponsorship of a Jewish return to Palestine."

The Balfour Declaration of November 1917, whereby the British government announced that it favored "the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people," was perhaps the single most important act premised in Christian Zionism. Harry S. Truman's recognition of Israel, against the nearly total opposition of his administration, was probably second. His biographer, Michael T. Benson, finds that Truman's pro-Israel outlook "was based primarily on humanitarian, moral, and sentimental grounds, many of which were an outgrowth of the president's religious upbringing and his familiarity with the Bible." (Truman's just-discovered diary, with its petulant remarks about Jews, makes his Zionist stance the more noteworthy.)

The media has recently focused on Christian Zionism as though it were something new ("How Israel Became a Favorite Cause of the Conservative Christian Right" runs a typical title, this one a front-page article in The Wall Street Journal). The real story is how Christian Zionists are increasingly the bedrock of Israel's support in the United States, more solidly pro-Israel and more robustly Zionist than many in the Jewish community.

To those who wonder why Washington follows policies so different from the European states, a large part of the answer these days has to do with the clout of Christian Zionists, who are especially powerful when a conservative Republican like George W. Bush is president. (In contrast, Christian Zionism has nearly died out in Great Britain.)

One anti-Israel writer, Grace Halsell, recognizes this fact and deems Christian Zionists a "more dangerous" influence in Washington than are the Jewish Zionists. Put positively: other than the Israel Defense Forces, America's Christian Zionists may be the Jewish state's ultimate strategic asset.
