I remember when Pat Robertson (I know - he's a goof) was having those fundraisers for Russian Jews to move to Israel after the USSR dissolved.

With the ultimate goal of hastening The End, no doubt. You do realise that this is an important, but little-advertised reason for our ardent support of Israel?Not the only reason for sure, but it's certainly there. It's certainly the only use some so-called "Christians" have for Jews - cannon fodder for the Apocalypse.

I thought "Wow - the Jews must really like this guy." About a week later, I heard someone on TV calling him "anti-semitic" for one reason or another.

Probably revolving around some of the claims he's made in his books regarding "international bankers," etc. Unfortunately, that's code for "Jews." Whether Robertson meant it that way I don't know.

Snidely

Ah, yes - the "International Bankers" code. I bet Robertson and his cult also have a secret handshake when they meet secretly to conspire against the Jews...

Isn't it funny that both sides of the political spectrum are always accusing each other of being conspiritorial?

I just wish that liberal Jews would give the "anti-semitic" label a rest. All freepers here who dislike Barbara Striesand (99.9%) could be branded with the scarlet "A" just for disagreeing with her politics. Think that's a stretch? Tell that to the music critic who wrote a negative review of her concert and was immediately attacked by the leftists as a bigot.

If there are Christians who believe this way, they sure are odd.

And this goes directly against what the Word tells us. The day and hour of Christ's return is known to no man. Also, it's the grandest form of chutzpah to think that mortal man can "force" the hand of the Almighty Father.

Now that's a trip.

As for me, and my strong stance with Zion, I do so because it is the right thing to do according to the Scriptures. The Father told Abraham that He would bless those who blessed him (through his seed of promise which was Isaac, not Ishmael, then Jacob who became Israel), and curse those who cursed him. The Father also said that through Abraham would all the families of the earth would be blessed.

I believe what the Father said here, verbatim.

Lastly, I look at Psalms 122:6 where we are to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

No "end times" prophecy here. It's not needed. Christ will move when it's His Time.
