It means fighting against the people who gave us the Bible.Jesus was Jewish," ICEJ President Dr.

For the church to survive, we need to connect to our roots, fighting antisemitism needs to be at the forefront of every pastor and every leader around the world," he added.One of the central themes of the conference is Replacement Theology, a doctrine that holds the Church has replaced the Jewish people in God’s plan."The Bible is full of God’s eternal plan which includes the Jewish people.Paul’s statement in Romans 11 that ‘the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable' relates to Israel.
This is a doctrine that goes contrary to what the New and Old Testament are teaching and that’s why we need to have this conference," Bühler said."One cannot deny the Jewishness of the Bible.The most frequent word in the Bible is the name of God and the second most used name is Israel.
Jesus was born in Bethlehem, he died in Jerusalem, resurrected in Jerusalem, rose to heaven from Jerusalem and he is coming back to Jerusalem.If you read the Bible it is so easy to see the connection to Israel," he added.HUCKABEE CONDEMNS EFFORTS TO ERASE JEWISH HISTORY TO THE H...
