No!!! Zionism is a political movement less than 200 years old. Neither Orthodox Christians or Orthodox Jews should feel the need to see Zionism as a necessity. Zionism has absolutely no connection to end-time prophecy. Many of these Evangelical Protestant tele-evangelists have ulterior motives in wanting to project this philosophy on their flocks. The great contradiction is once an Evangelical accepts this doctrine it doesn't fit with the justification doctrine they once held to. There is a well know Texan preacher who having accepted the idea of Christan Zionism now preaches one way of justification to Christian believers and another way to Jews who do not accept Jesus as the Christ, as the messiah. He therefore preaches a false gospel to uphold the idea of Christian Zionism.

Nope.
BUT
ONE LIFE
He was born in a stable,
In an obscure village,
the child of a peasant woman,
From there He travelled
less than 200 miles.
He never wrote a book.
He never held an office.
He did none of the things one
usually associates with greatness.
He became a nomadic preacher,
Popular opinion turned against Him,
He was betrayed by a close friend,
And His other friends ran away.
He was unjustly condemned to death,
Crucified on a cross among common thieves,
On a hill overlooking the town dump,
And when dead, laid in a borrowed grave.
Nineteen centuries have come and gone,
Empires have risen and fallen,
Mighty armies have marched,
And powerful rulers have reigned.
Yet no one has affected men as much as HE,
HE is the central figure of the human race,
HE is the Messiah, THE SON OF GOD,
JESUS THE CHRIST!
~
We who were not born of Jewish parents must remember that Our Messiah
and The Messiah of the Jews are one!
We were "grafted in" ~ and for this we must thank OUR LORD AND OUR MESSIAH ~
Yah Vashua, The Lord - Jesus The Christ
Whose Birth We Celebrate on December 25th !

If you believe the Messiah will come from Israel once again then it should be. I listen to a lot of the TV preachers and I never heard one say anything but POSITIVE THINGS REGARDING ZIONISM< Even Benny Hinn who is an Arab born in Old City of Jerusalem. What do you think would happen when Jesus has His second coming and the Arabs would be ruling Israel? Forget it I shudder to even imagine that. I kinow and I have seen the respect Israel has for Christian holy places YES Zionism is important for Christians. Merry Xmas.

No. Zionism is not the business of Christians. It is a Jewish issue.
Christian "Zionists" have an agenda to convert all Jews, not to support Jewish idedentity and the Jewish homeland for its own sake.

No. But one day the nation of Israel will be restored by the Messiah and open to all who believe in him.

Yes, but it's really for political reasons, the common people are truly in the dark about what they do.

Yes because the Jews wrote it into the big book of stories.

It's their land. From what I understand they are willing to leave in peace with palestinians.
THEY ARE GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE. If I deny that, I deny HIM.
