Eyebrows Raised in Israel

June 23rd, 2014

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised anymore when Israelis raise their eyebrows of suspicion when I say that I love the land, language, people, and God of Israel while also being introduced as a pastor from the United States. I have never once been asked which denomination I am associated with, as most Israelis differentiate between Catholics and Protestants, but don’t tend to distinguish between Baptists, Methodists, and Presbyterians. But as a result of a Presbyterian campaign known as B.D.S.—Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions—even my eyebrows of suspicion are raised! Continue Reading…

Did You Hear the One About the Pope, the Rabbi, and the Muslim?

May 22nd, 2014

This article was originally published at Breaking Israel News. (Click this image to view it there)

The Pope, a Jewish rabbi, and a Muslim religious leader ascend the Temple Mount together. This sounds like a setup for a joke, doesn’t it? But if it’s true, inquiring minds want to know if representatives of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam will be able to pry open the sealed door of exclusivism so people from all nations can be free to pray on the Temple Mount.

It has been just a few weeks since Rabbi Yehudah Glick and I sent a personal letter to Pope Francis requesting his help: Continue Reading…

The House on the Hill

May 15th, 2014

This article was originally published at Breaking Israel News. (Click this image to view it there)

After having a brush with the conflict and chaos that is connected with the holiest piece of real estate in the world, I have decided to take a step back to get a historical, linguistic perspective on what most people call the Temple Mount. I always find value in understanding the name of a place through the language of those closest to it. In Hebrew, the Temple Mount is called Har haBayit (“Mount of the House”) and in Arabic it is called Haram al-Sharif (“Noble Sanctuary”).

For those who claim that the present Temple Mount has no connection to its biblical foundation, language comes to the rescue. When the Roman Emperor Hadrian decided to “rebuild” Jerusalem in 135 C.E. he had Continue Reading…

Pastor Keith Johnson & Rabbi Yehuda Glick in front of The Temple Mount, JerusalemAfter much prayer and discernment, my friend rabbi Yehudah Glick and I have made a formal request to Pope Francis and a call to religious leaders around the world to support the Freedom to Pray on the Temple Mount movement.

“We have formally asked Pope Francis to join us in urging Israeli government officials and Muslim religious leaders to support change of the status quo regarding prohibiting prayer on the Temple Mount.” -Rabbi Yehudah Glick, Chairman of the Temple Mount Heritage Foundation.

“We are not interested in promoting politics, but rather calling for a peaceful path for prayer on the Temple Mount for all nations” -Pastor Keith Johnson, founder of Biblical Foundations Academy, International.

Temple Mount Conference Jerusalem I love the land, language and people of Israel, including those who are not Israeli but who love the God of Abraham. I was given a rare opportunity to express my love and concern in front of several hundred Israeli’s who gathered to conference about what is happening on the Temple Mount. I was honored and humbled that they would listen to an American Pastor try his best to speak to them in their language. The video below is what they saw. Continue Reading…
