We Hold Tese Truths' founder, Chuck Carlson was interviewed by Susan Lindauer on her program, The Covert Report with Susan Lindauer . This is how Susan introduced Chuck:  "Today’s guest is Charles Carlson, one of the foremost critics of Christian Zionism from “We Hold These Truths–” a pro-peace, pro-life group that has been hosting vigils at large evangelical churches across America, challenging t...

Just when you thought it was safe to get into the water, John Hagee of Christians United For Israel has declared, on the Hagee Hotline program, that President Obama is not sufficiently kind to Israel.  It seems the President wants to keep the "true " capital of Israel, Jerusalem, divided between Palestinians and Jews rather then uniting it under Israel.  Hagee contends that this will result in a j...

Sometimes, you have to step back to get the whole, big picture, of America's latest enemies.  Over the decades, the US has developed many innovative ways to create new enemies.  This Australian documentary, Iraq's Missing Billions (2006), demonstrates this during the US administered, initial rebuilding of Iraq's damaged infrastructure after the 2003 Gulf War.  The squandering of the Iraqis' own mo...

At left is an example of the America's alternative to diplomacy: An oilfield in ISIL held territory in Syria is bombed by the US Air Force. The US government justified the 2003 Gulf War against Iraq by telling Americans that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and that Al-Qaedi operated there.  Neither were true.  The US and its Middle East allies have supplied weapons and training to t...

We Hold These Truths held our first vigil at a synagogue (Congregation Ner Tamid in San Francisco) that hosted a John Hagee's Christians United For Israel event.  We were joined by two activists from Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), Paul Larudee of the Free Palestine Movement, Jesuit priest, Father Steve and 8 WHTT supporters.  In this program, Jim Haber of JVP and Paul Larudee provide interesting in...

According to Christian Zionists, a physical Israel is needed before Jesus can return.  It all has to do with eschatology (the study of end times).  You might say that Christian Zionists like Pastor John Hagee of Christians United For Israel (CUFI) are wrapped up in the "Rapture" so they can be ready for the final battle of Armaggedon.  In this podcast we discuss Chuck Carlson's letter sent to a ra...

Mark Horton continues a look at Paul's view of the resurrection and the hope of Israel by looking into Eziekel 37.

Mark Horton responds to some lively questions about the dispensational and non-dispensational interpretations of Paul's views on the nature of the resurrection of Israel. 

John Hagee's Christians United For Israel will take its "We Love Israel No Matter How Many Palestinians They Kill," traveling road show, " Standing With Israel " event to a synagogue in San Francisco.  Normally, CUFI events are held at Christian Zionist churches.  We discuss this event and the recent protest in the Bay Area where over 3000 longshoremen protested against an Israeli ship unloading i...

The trial of Paul continues in Caesarea with King Agrippa examining him for Roman governor, Festus. 

This Israeli tee shirt appeared after "Operation Cast Lead" in 2009 where over 300 Palestinian children were killed in Gaza.  We don't know what the Hebrew says, but the message reflects "A Society of Death" mentality in Israel that is explored in this podcast.  Israel's latest installment of collective punishment, "Operation Protective Edge" has resulted in over 500 children killed, a total of ov...

The physical state of Israel was spiritually dead during Paul's ministry.

Paul appealed his case to Caesar Augustus.  The Roman governor, Festus determined that Paul had committed nothing worthy of death. King Agrippa tries Paul in order to come up with a charge that Paul can be used against him in Rome.  Mark Horton has some interesting insights into one of the charges made concerning the resurrection.  Paul asks King Agrippa, "Why should it be thought by you that God...

No matter how much the Zionist state of Israel's propaganda machine, our cowardly US president, Congress and main stream media try to cover up its brutal and punitive attack on Gaza, more and more people are finding out the truth that Israel's actions are barbaric. This video was taken from a rally held in Texas to support Palestinians and oppose Israel's genocidal actions in "Operation Protective...

Chuck Carlson of We Hold These Truths has described Israeli's "Operation Protective Edge" in Gaza as genocide against the Palestinians.  As of 8/4/2014, "the Palestinian death toll surpassed 1,800 [Palestinians], 80% of whom are civilians according to UN estimates. About 460,000 people in Gaza have been displaced since the start of the conflict. Three civilians in Israel have been killed." ( thegu...

Christians who require Israel to be the focal point of their religion rather than focusing on Jesus and what he taught, are blinded to what Israel is doing to the Palestinians.  This podcast discusses a very interesting encounter with a Christian Zionist by Tom Compton of We Hold These Truths.  The very enlightening " An Open Letter to Evangelicals and Other Interested Parties:  The People of God,...

Paul appeals his case to Caesar rather than go to Jerusalem where the Judean leaders want to kill him.

Even Christian Zionist pastors can change their minds about the Israel/Palestine conflict when they thoroughly study the issues with some help and encouragement from friends and relatives.  Thanks to the efforts of our friend and brother in Christ, Palestinian Pastor Alex Awad from Bethlehem Bible College and the Christ At The Checkpoint conferences that layed the groundwork, We Hold These Truths'...

Ron Dermer, Israel's Ambassador to the US, addressed the recent Christians United For Israel convention in Washington, DC.  As reported in the Times Of Israel :  “Some are shamelessly accusing Israel of genocide and would put us in the dock for war crimes,” Dermer said. “But the truth is that the Israeli Defense Forces should be given the Nobel Peace Prize… a Nobel Peace Prize for fighting with un...

In his trial before Felix, the Roman governor in Caesarea, Paul is accused of attempting to defame the temple in Jerusalem.

We Hold These Truths joined the Arizona State University chapter of Students For Justice In Palestine's rally held in Tempe, AZ to show support for the Palestinians in Gaza who are, for the third time in less than five years, being brutalized by Israel's latest supplement to their ongoing military occupation of Palestine...Operation Protective Edge.  These attacks by Israel demonstrate their affin...

Paul's fellow Judeans plan to kill him in Jerusalem but are thwarted by a God ordained informant.

It turns out that Chuck Carlson learned some "Top Secret" information from a missionary to Russia at a recent high school reunion he attended in South Dakota.  And, as a public service, we are passing it along to you. This piece is one of those curious nuggets of conversation that occurs before we start a podcast program.  We think many Christian Zionists will want to go to the bank with this stor...

Rather than look the other way as millions of Christian Zionists do, Pope Francis prayed at the separation wall in occupied Palestine during his 2014 visit to the Holy Land. Israel and the Zionists fear Christians learning the truth about the Zionists' forced removal of over 700,000 Palestinians and the destruction of over 400 villages at the start of the founding of Israel in 1948 and the brutal...
