The Friends of Israel Today ·

2025/07/03

Why were the priests such an important part of ancient Israel? This week, in part 2 of our series on the priests, we see how necessary they were in separating the clean from the unclean, as God explained in the Law to the Israelites. Today, rather than merely telling us how to be clean, Jesus, our High Priest, makes us clean and changes us through His cleansing blood. We hope this series has given you a whole new appreciation for the work God gave the priests of Israel!

If holy and common are opposite, how could God dwell with His people? Through the priests! God used these special Israelites to mediate between God and man, as they provided the people with moral oversight, mediated holiness, formed Israel’s spiritual identity, and taught its covenant with God. This week, we begin a 2-part series on God’s requirements of Israel’s priests and His Chosen People, which shape our understanding of holiness, responsibility, and spiritual leadership.

On Friday, June 13, Israel launched a preemptive strike against Iran’s military and nuclear programs. Iran responded by launching many waves of ballistic missiles into densely populated areas of Israel. It is a dark time of destruction, but could it result in victory for the Jewish state? Chris and Steve break down how Israel has damaged Iran’s nuclear aspirations—even while keeping its trademark commitment to preserving innocent lives!

Why do many churches sit on the fence concerning Zionism—the Jewish people’s right to their own state in their ancestral homeland? The Friends of Israel President Jim Showers provides the answer in the latest issue of Israel My Glory magazine. He discusses the dangers of Replacement Theology and ignorance concerning Israel, the cause of younger Christians’ lack of support for the Jewish nation, and the biblical mandate (rather than a political motivation) that drives our passion for Zionism.

2025/06/06

At the end of the book of Malachi, the prophet turned the attention from Israel’s spiritual complacency to its future filled with divine promise, the opening to God’s great blessing and restoration. The finale of our 4-part series on Malachi fixes our eyes—along with the Israelites’ eyes—on Jesus’ coming. Chris also discusses our imperative as Christians to stand boldly and instinctively with the Jewish people against antisemitism, particularly in light of the recent terrorist attack that killed two

2025/05/29

The first two chapters of Malachi paint an unflattering picture of the Jewish people after returning to their land. Instead of giving the Lord their best, they offered halfhearted sacrifices to Him. But in chapter 3, God graciously assured Israel He would send His Messenger and that His presence would return to the Temple! Part 3 of our 4-part series on the book focuses on God’s promise to refine Israel as He lovingly called His people to Himself. This week’s broadcast reminds us to give God our

The prophet Malachi referred to the Temple altar as “the table of the Lᴏʀᴅ,” indicating a close relationship and fellowship between God and His people. Yet, the Israelites flippantly offered unworthy sacrifices on this table. Part 2 of our 4-part series on the book of Malachi examines Israel’s relationship with God and the prophet’s challenge to the Israelites, a relevant challenge for believers today, too: What are we bringing to God’s table? Are we giving God our best, or are we leaving Him with

When the Jewish people returned to the Holy Land after years of exile, they found themselves guilty of the same sin with which many of us struggle today: spiritual apathy, or indifference. Though they sacrificed to God, they didn’t give Him their best, unblemished, choicest offerings—they gave Him their leftovers! In part 1 of our 4-part series on the book of Malachi, we examine the prophet’s warning to God’s people. The major message of Malachi rings true for Christians today just as it did for the

A recently revealed excerpt from the diary of Israel’s first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, offers an unfiltered view into the tension-filled beginnings of the Jewish state and reminds us of the great sacrifice the Jewish statesmen made to reestablish the nation of Israel. This week, Chris takes us back to 1948 and walks us through Israel’s rebirth in the context of Ezekiel 37. Israel’s independence is an amazing story of God’s provision and faithfulness to His Chosen People. Enjoy this special

What is the main purpose of Scripture? It goes beyond our individual salvation from sin. In the conclusion of our 3-part series on why Bible interpretation matters, we continue studying Dr. Charles Ryrie’s theology by focusing on the glory of God—the true purpose of history. All of Scripture is united by the theme of God’s glory, which puts our focus where it belongs—on the Creator, rather than His creations. Let this week’s study connect the dots of the Bible for you and drive you to a heart of

Why does it matter how we interpret the Bible? One major reason concerns the important distinction between Israel and the church. In part 2 of our series on Bible interpretation, we study this unique distinction made clear by a literal understanding of Scripture. The renowned theologian Charles Ryrie helped develop this theology, stir up Christian Zionism, and clarify the church’s mission to proclaim the gospel to all, rather than hijacking God’s covenant with Israel. This week’s exploration of

This week, we’ll analyze Israel’s watershed moment of the 21st century: Hamas’s October 7, 2023 massacre and kidnapping of Israeli civilians and the ensuing war Israel has fought against the terrorist group and other Iranian proxies. Since it began, Israel has decimated Hamas and Hezbollah and weakened Iran’s massive influence over the region, providing a glimpse of hope for the Middle
