This talk examines the rise and influence of Christian Zionism, placing it within the broader challenge of navigating truth in an age of information overload. The speakers argue that many believers allow current events and political agendas—particularly surrounding Israel and the Middle East—to shape their theology, rather than grounding their views in Scripture. They trace the roots of Zionism to the late 19th century, explaining how it became entwined with dispensational theology through the Scofield Reference Bible and gained momentum in the 20th century, particularly in American evangelical circles. The result, they say, has been a theology that elevates race over grace, treats the modern state of Israel as the centerpiece of God’s plan, and often misuses Scripture to support political ends.

The speakers contend that true biblical teaching makes clear that the people of God are defined by faith in Christ, not ethnicity or geography, and that the promises once applied to old covenant Israel now extend to all believers in Christ—the true Israel of God. They warn that Christian Zionism undermines the sufficiency of Christ’s work, especially through its emphasis on rebuilding the temple and restarting sacrifices, which contradicts the message of Hebrews. Beyond theology, they highlight how Christian Zionism has been co-opted by political and economic interests, turning believers into pawns for agendas divorced from the lordship of Christ. Ultimately, the call is for Christians to return to Scripture as the foundation for understanding history and current events, to embrace an eschatology of victory in Christ, and to resist being swayed by propaganda or man-centered theology.
