Not all Christians who support Israel do so because of dispensationalism.
Dispensationalism (yes, popularized by the Scofield Bible in the early 20th century) does emphasize Israel's role in prophecy but isnβt the sole reason for Christian support. Many non-dispensationalist Christians back Israel due to its historical significance, strategic alliances, and moral right to exist.
Moreover, supporting Israel doesnβt automatically mean endorsing all its policies or sending troops overseas. Theological beliefs and political actions are distinct, and decisions on military support are complex, involving multiple factors beyond any one theological view.
So, conflating dispensationalism with unconditional support for Israel oversimplifies the issue and ignores the diversity of reasons behind such support.
Right all Christians - what % of Christians support Israel because of dispensationalism?
How does SOTH Mike Johnson's Christians beliefs (which are in line with dispensationalism) influence his political decisions? Does the US send troops to the middle east to fight on behalf of Israel?
Do you have children? Grandchildren? You want them to fight for Israel? After all don't you want the "blessings" on your family & nation?
You OK with our Congressmen/women & Senators being dual US/Israeli citizens?
Ever here of the USS Liberty? Israel is our friend?
