Closing: Dispensationalism Diminishes Jesus — and It's Downright Satanic

Tucker frames the ultimate cost: not just that dispensationalism inspired American Christians to support what he calls genocide, but that it fundamentally corrupts the Christian faith itself by demoting Jesus. Hall agrees and intensifies it. Huckabee's recent claim that Christians owe Jews 'an eternal moral debt' is, Hall argues, a direct affront to the atonement — Jesus paid all debts, full stop. The claim that you prove Christian love by giving money for bombs to kill children in Gaza, Lebanon, or Iran — including descendants of Ishmael, also of Abraham's lineage — is, Hall says, 'downright satanic.' Jesus said it would be better to drown with a millstone than to harm a little one. Yet American churches are collecting Sunday offerings that flow to an Israeli state that has never welcomed a Christian missionary and would expel any ambassador who tried to evangelize Jews. Hall ends with a call to first principles: if you love Jewish people, tell them about Jesus. That is the Christian message. Not political clout, not bombs, not a 'violent Ponzi scheme.' Jesus is the owner of every square inch of God's creation — and the obsession over who controls a tiny strip of Middle Eastern desert is, Hall says, missing the entire point. [1] — J.D.
