לא נקדם שום חוק נגד הקהילה הנוצרית.
We will not advance any law against the Christian community.— Benjamin Netanyahu – בנימין נתניהו (@netanyahu) March 22, 2023
The bill would mean that Christians in Israel could face up to one year in prison for sharing their faith or attempting to convert someone, and will be charged with a harsher sentence if they share their faith with a minor, according to All Israel News. …
Christians make up nearly 2% of Israel’s population and comprised 61% of tourists in Israel in 2018, according to the Jewish Virtual Library. Tourists from the United States were also the largest percentage of visitors to Israel at 813,000 in 2018. …

Add to continuing prayers: Father, continue to grant favor in the eyes of both communities for each other that we may with grace and love continue to bear witness to “their” Messiah!
That’s very good considering all of the persecutions they have experienced throughout history! FATHER GOD please send laborers to Israel for salvation in JESUS CHRIST! They shall prosper that love YOU! Let Peace remain within their borders in JESUS NAME! Amen!
I was shocked when I saw this news
It really never occurred to me there was such animosity toward Christians
.that you could go to jail!! Knowing there are multiple sects within Judaism and great political unrest right now, the reality was stunning. I have affiliated with Israel blindly. What a wakeup call
I was moved by your comment Karen and respectfully submit the following:
Please remember we are called to be affiliated with Israel…with our eyes wide open. I recently stumbled upon FIRM which is a Messianic website from Israel. They have Word based articles in the “Learning Center,” which I encourage you to “visit.” https://firmisrael.org/learn/
We both know one of the enemy’s missions is to divide and he is just as active in Israel just as he is here. Only 2 members of the Israeli government proposed this bill and I bet they would love to have a sit-down with a few of our like thinking representatives, who I will leave nameless.
“I urge you, sister, to watch out for those who create divisions and obstacles that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Turn away from them! All Israel will be saved, as it has been written: “The One Delivering will come out of Zion, He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.” And regarding the Gospel, they are enemies on your account; but regarding election, they are loved on account of the patriarchs. For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable. (Romans 16:7, 11:26,28,29)
May God bless you in surety and peace!
THANK YOU LORD!!!!! It could have meant a year in Jail just to talk about Yeshua to a Jewish person. In America, Missionary is a positive word. It is an extremely negative word in Israel. We have family living there. The history of Christian anti semitism has left deep hurt in the souls of Jewish people. Non Messianics are wary.
They feel if they convert, they can no longer be Jewish. People can be cut off from their loved ones. It’s a very high price to pay, it was in the NT, it still is. Pray for grace and courage for people. Passover is coming – please pray many many see the Messiah in the Seder. Pray they also see He is God, the Son of Man in Daniel. Thank you!!!
