They existed before (the state of) Israel:
the truth about Palestinian Christians
~ Verse Fire ~

…an 18 minute video

“They existed before Rome. Before Islam. Before any modern nation-state. The original Christians of Palestine are being erased — and the Western Church is silent. For 2,000 years, Palestinian Christians kept the faith alive in the Holy Land. Today they represent less than 1.5% of the population. This is not natural decline. This is a calculated erasure — engineered by political theology, funded by American megachurches, and protected by coordinated silence. In this documentary, VerseFire investigates the full hidden story: from the Day of Pentecost in Jerusalem to the bombing of a 1,600-year-old Christian church in Gaza in 2023 — and the pastors who said nothing. We expose the Scofield Reference Bible, John Nelson Darby’s dispensationalism, and the Christian Zionism movement that rewired Western theology to erase Palestinian Christians from the biblical narrative. What you were taught in church about biblical prophecy, the Holy Land, and the return of Christ was written by men with political motives — not divine revelation. By the end of this documentary, nothing will look the same.” (verse fire)

There is neither Jew nor Grecian (Greek): there is neither bond nor free:

The Balfour Declaration:

Foreign Office
November 2nd, 1917

Dear Lord Rothschild,

I have much pleasure in conveying to you. on behalf of His Majesty’s Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet

His Majesty’s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.

I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.

Yours,

Arthur James Balfour
(November 2, 1917)

The British government decided to endorse the establishment of a Jewish home in Palestine. After discussions within the cabinet and consultations with Jewish leaders, the decision was made public in a letter from British Foreign Secretary Lord Arthur James Balfour to Lord Walter Rothschild. The contents of this letter became known as the Balfour Declaration.
