Seminar on Israel
In 1998-2000, I was captivated by the “End Times” books of popular writers like Hal Lindsey, Tim LaHaye, and the C. I. Scofield Reference Bible. These books were widely embraced in the Brethren Community where I have spiritually born and grew up, and I accepted their teachings without critically examining them or comparing them with the Bible and other scholarly resources.
However, I have realized that these books are filled with nonsense and are designed solely for excitement. They are crafted to instill fear and manipulate Christians, leading to devastating real-life consequences for the people of the Middle East.
Similar to how certain interpretations has been twisted to validate occupation, oppression, and injustice in Israel/Palestine. This distortion goes against the message of the Hebrew prophets and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Like many others today, I was unaware and blindly supportive of Israel until my eyes were opened.
The seven Bible questions present here is a chance to delve into what the Bible truly says about the end times. These answers can help you adopt constructive and Christ-like responses to injustice, rather than fueling conflicts, disregarding the suffering on both sides.
