On October 7, 2023, the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust by Hamas met with global critique of Israel's defense, not empathy. Amidst the world and Church's silence, how should Christians biblically react to hostility against Israel? Nic Lesmeister addresses this in the first session of the Israel Masterclass, starting from Genesis to establish a "theo-practical" foundation. He contrasts the universal (Greek) vs. biblical (Hebraic) worldviews, explores God's "scandal of particularity" in choosing Israel, and underscores the need for Christians to love and bless what God cherishes. #centerforisrael #israelmasterclass #Israel #israelwar https://lnkd.in/gfQUmUTP
