Should Christians be pro-Israel?

from The Grove Church · host The Grove Church

This week in our What Does the Bible Say About… series, we explored one of the most loaded and timely questions in modern Christianity: Should Christians be pro-Israel? Charlie walks us through the biblical story of Israel—from God’s covenant with Abraham to its fulfillment in Jesus—and helps us separate modern political narratives from biblical truth.The message unpacks how different theological frameworks (like dispensationalism and covenant theology) shape our understanding of Israel’s role in God’s story, and why our support can’t be driven by superstition, fear, or political pressure—but by love, wisdom, and Scripture.Rather than telling you what political position to hold, this sermon challenges us to live as Christ’s ambassadors in a complicated world—offering truth, compassion, and hope to all people, including both Jews and Palestinians.How have you noticed different attitudes about Israel among Christians?What are the two primary perspectives on whether or not Israel is still God’s chosen people? What role does that play in the way people think about the nation of Israel?Does God still have promises to fulfill for them or are they fulfilled in Jesus?How do the end times factor into this?
