In 2023, extremist members of the Israeli Knesset attempted to ban teaching Christianity and proposed severe penalties for offenders, which failed due to pressure from American evangelical Christians.

The rescue mission of Christ culminated in His crucifixion and resurrection, establishing the New Covenant based on grace. I critique Christian-Zionist Robert Stearns for undermining Jesus' messianic significance, emphasizing that salvation is exclusively through Christ.

I discuss the ongoing conflict between the children of light and the children of the flesh, highlighting how false doctrines, particularly regarding ethnic identity and salvation, oppose the true message of the gospel, as illustrated in Acts 13 with Barjesus.
