Christians United For Israel

From C.U.F.I. at www.cufi.org

The Bible commands us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6), to speak out for Zion’s sake (Isaiah 62:1), to be watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem (Isaiah 62:6) and to bless the Jewish people (Genesis 12:3). These and so many other verses of the Bible that have one overriding message– as Christians we have a Biblical obligation to defend Israel and the Jewish people in their time of need.

Israel’s time of need is now. There is a new Hitler in the Middle East –President Ahmadinejad of Iran — who has threatened to wipe out Israel and America and is rapidly acquiring the nuclear technology to make good on his threat. If we learned anything from the Holocaust, it is that when a madman threatens genocide we must take him seriously.

During the Holocaust, too many Christians were silent, and we were left to mourn the slaughter of 6 million Jews. Today, Bible-believing Christians must speak up and stand up for Israel. We must act to do whatever we can to protect Israel’s 6 million Jews from the second Holocaust. We must get it right this time. Our faith demands it. The times require it. Silence is not an option.

Christians United for Israel is a national Christian grassroots movement focused on one issue: supporting Israel. Although we are less than two years old, we are spreading like a wildfire and are changing the nature of support for Israel in America. YOU can part of this national Christian grassroots movement. YOU can make a difference for Israel.

Learn about the current situation in Israel and the Middle East and CUFI’s activities and events by receiving CUFI’s weekly email updates. Express your support of Israel by participating in a Night to Honor Israel in your community. Speak to your elected officials about the imperatives of supporting Israel during CUFI’s Third Annual Washington-Israel Summit in Washington, DC on July 21-23, 2008.

Time is short and the challenge is great. But we must believe that it was for a moment such as this that we were called to faith and given the power to make a difference. We hope that you will join us in supporting Israel in her time of need.
