Let’s not allow agenda-driven political theology to divide us.
Kudos to Mike Huckabee, U.S. ambassador to Israel: a genuine man of faith, an authentic patriot, a true friend of Israel—and a mensch to boot.
When a statement, allegedly penned by unnamed patriarchs and heads of churches in Jerusalem and purporting to represent unity and the Christian communities in Israel, recently appeared disparaging of so-called Christian Zionism, he forthrightly challenged the substance of the statement.
Huckabee began by clearly noting that the statement was not made by evangelical churches in Israel. After all, as he professed prayerfully, he loves his Christian brothers and sisters of other religious sects, but he would never claim that he spoke for all Christians worldwide or assume there is only one viewpoint regarding faith in the Holy Land of Israel.
