(Aug 2, 07) FULLER's MOUW re ISRAEL-PALESTINE: "This silence has much to do with a tendency to depict the tensions in the Middle East as Jews versus Muslims. What gets lost in this depiction is the plight of Arab Christians, who get shot at from both sides I have said this privately to my Jewish friends on many occasions: on the big issues of Israel versus the Muslim-dominated nations, I am a supporter of Israel. But the Palestinian Christian poses for me very special theological and spiritual questions. Those questions ought to be high on the theological agenda of evangelicalism. Unfortunately, they get no serious attention in the circles where people claim to be basing their views on “God’s plan for Israel.” http://www.netbloghost.com/mouw/?m=200708
