The Scofield Reference Bible alterd the Christian view of Zionism by creating and promoting a pro-Zionist subculture of Christianity. Scofield's re-wrote the King James Version of the Bible by inserting Zionist-friendly notes in the margins, between verses and chapters, and on the bottoms of the pages.
The Scofield Reference Bible introduced the Christian theology that will destroy the powers of evil and usher in the kingdom of God. In which Jews must live in a re-created Israel in the promised land before Christ can fulfill his Second Coming in Jerusalem. In reading and accepting the Bible literally, they believe in dispensationalism in which the Rapture is a key factor in understanding this relatively new dogma…born-again Christians are to be wafted up into Heaven just before Armageddon without suffering one moment through the instant Rapture.

Christian Zionists are usually people who study the bible. They know that the nations receive blessing through Israel. (Genesis 12) and they understand that God's covenant with the Jews is forever.
