Survey shows what American Christians think about Israel's war with Hamas

In November 2023, the Philos Project conducted a survey with Lifeway Research, polling over 1,200 American Christians to gauge their perspectives on recent events in Israel and Gaza.

Watch as Robert and Luke dive into the survey findings, highlighting notable trends and aspects that Christians can focus on in the upcoming months.

____________

Here are some of our survey's findings:

➡️ 81% of American Christians support the goal of a two-state solution in which Israel and Palestine are self-governing with national borders respected by all.

➡️ 59% of American Christians agree news stories often over-simplify reasons for events in the war.

➡️ 50% of American Christians think that the U.S. is doing the right amount to help Israel.

I am going to give you a perspective on Israel from me, a Hebrew Roots Christian in the United States. You may not like it. You may even delete it.

But my intentions are good, and what I say is based totally on the Bible, from the Torah. If anyone doesn’t believe the Torah is from the Almighty, you can just ignore the rest of this post.

I’m very sorry but Israel left itself open for that horrendous attack. How did they do that?

Of course we are told to pray for the peace of Israel. So I do include that prayer along with my other daily prayers.

But what else does the Bible say? It says that if the Lord does not guard the city, the watchmen watch in vain. What causes the Lord to guard the city? Obedience to him.

I am sorry, but the truth is that Israel, like the United States, and so many nations around the world, does not live in the state of obedience.

Think about all the babies that have been killed in abortuaries. Where is the outcry for them, as with the victims of Hamas, when those babies have pain sensors, and are legally being ripped limb from limb or burned alive with saline solution in their mothers’ wombs?

One of the first hostages to be released can be seen on YouTube saying that hostages were kept in darkness and treated like objects.

That is terrible. And she may not have deserved that at all. But the sins of a nation can affect innocent people as well as the guilty. And unborn babies are treated as objects when they are killed even in later trimesters. This isn’t something to just be shrugged off.

It is hard to say, but it is biblical to say, that so often we reap what we sow.

In addition Israel is considered the world capital of the LGBT movement. Prostitution is legal in Israel and brothels are not at all uncommon.

Mentioning such unpleasant topics may cause my post to be deleted. And that is sometimes what has happened actually, though not always.

I hope that this will be seen. I’m only affirming what the Bible shows. That the Almighty hates all those kinds of things, and will punish a nation eventually who supports them. Who sent destroying pagan nations against Israel when they would rebel against the Lord and sacrifice their living babies to the gods of prosperity? The Lord himself!

Israel has become increasingly secular, even pagan in many ways, in its practices and beliefs. For example the nightclub that was attacked in Gaza was featuring a large image of Buddha.

I think the biggest prayer we can pray for Israel is for repentance. (Likewise for my nation of the USA, and other nations.)

2 Chronicles 7:14, “…if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

In the meantime, I’ve been praying for innocent people, for holy angels to help them in every way. Yes this includes any who are innocent who are being forced to be in the present horrible conditions in Gaza.

And incidentally about 3500 years ago, through Moses in Deuteronomy 28, the history of Israel was prophesied with scary detail and accuracy.

I have noticed that many soldiers, including others in Israel, have been turning to the Lord in desperation, sometimes
for the first time in their lives. This, I believe, is another Torah supported reason why the Almighty allowed the tragedies to happen.
