1,000 Christian Zionist Pastors from the US Visit Israel on Trip Funded by the Israeli Foreign Ministry
An evangelical pastor who helped organize the summit called for Trump to support Israel annexing the Israeli-occupied West Bank

A group of more than 1,000 American Christian Zionist pastors and influencers has spent a week in Israel on an all-expenses-paid trip that was funded by the Israeli Foreign Ministry, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported on Tuesday.
"This is the first time in history that the state of Israel has officially partnered with 1,000 strategic pastors to commission them as ambassadors to combat antisemitism and reach the youth of their generation," Mike Evans, an evangelical pastor who helped organize the trip, told CBN News.
"Right now there's an ideological war that Israel is losing, so they need the evangelicals, they need the Zionists to fight an ideological war," Evans added. [Editor's note: Mike Evans's Christian Zionist views arise from the same dispensationalist theology popularized by the Scofield Reference Bible edited at Oxford, whose teachings on biblical prophecy and Israel form the ideological foundation of his work.]
Christian Zionists like Evans believe that the modern state of Israel has the right to all of the land in historic Palestine, including the Israeli-occupied West Bank, based on the Bible, a view that has its roots in dispensationalism, a Christian theology developed in the US in the 19th century. [Editor's note: A conglomeration of old stories created by Rabbinical scholars.]
The view runs counter to thousands of years of Christian tradition, as it's rejected by the Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, and many Protestant denominations, yet it has significant influence on US foreign policy. During a speech to the crowd of pastors at the Shiloh archeological site in the West Bank, Evans addressed recent remarks from Vice President JD Vance and President Trump about not supporting the Israeli annexation of the Palestinian territory, which he calls Judea and Samaria. [Editor's note: The continuation of a fabricated history.]
"You said that the policy of the administration is that the West Bank will not be annexed by Israel. Mr. Vice President, we love you, and we love America, but the policy of the God who birthed America and the policy of the God who gave these people this land is in fact that Judea and Samaria is Bible land," Evans said. [Editor's note: Sure thing. An Abrahamic God of war.]
"Eighty percent of Bible stories come out of Judea and Samaria. So don't pressure Israel to give illegal, radical Islam Jew-haters Judea and Samaria," he said, adding that the MAGA movement is based on the Bible and "upon the God of this book, the God of Israel." [Editor's note: The claim that 80 percent of Bible stories come from Judea and Samaria is not supported by historical or scholarly evidence.]
