On this week’s ICEJ Webinar, we bring you more informative and inspiring highlights from our recent Jerusalem Summit emergency gathering on antisemitism, Replacement theology, and Church history back to the Council of Nicaea.

Today, Dr. Samuel Tedder challenges the general perception that, based on the teachings of the Apostle Paul, Judaism is seen as a religion of legalism, and Christianity a religion of grace. In recent decades, many Christian theologians have changed their views on Paul, seeing him foremost as a Jewish theologian. Tedder explains this shift and notes the inseparable link between Judaism and Christianity, based around participation in God's covenant family. Does this match your understanding of the two faiths? Or are they totally separate? And did Paul teach that the Church replaced Israel in God’s redemptive plan?

“An Introduction on the New Perspective of Paul.” That’s our topic this week on the ICEJ Webinar, featuring Dr. Samuel Tedder, a Finnish biblical scholar, pastor and missionary who holds a Doctoral degree in New Testament Studies from Durham University. Please enjoy this encouraging, informative, and timely message.

The United States is about to celebrate 250 years since its founding in 1776. But the 4th of July celebrations are being dampened by the unresolved war against Iran, and by an unprecedented wave of antisemitism on American soil. This gives us good reason to ask once more about the purpose and destiny of America.

Does the US have a prophetic calling from on High? Can America be found in Bible Prophecy? And was it founded as a Christian Nation? On this week’s ICEJ webinar, we look at The Prophetic Calling and Destiny of America. ICEJ Senior Vice President & Spokesman David Parsons offers his take on this very important topic at this landmark moment in American and world history.

The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem just concluded a very successful Jerusalem Summit, a scholarly look at Antisemitism, Replacement theology, and the omission of Israel and the Jewishness of Jesus in the Nicene Creed.

On this week’s webinar, we will have a review of the Summit, as well as a look forward to our upcoming Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem, from 25-30 September. We have some exciting news to share about this year’s Feast, and what awaits you here in Jerusalem.

ICEJ President Dr Jürgen Bühler will tell us what is in store, plus updates on the worship teams and how you can serve at this year’s Feast.

Next week, the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem will host an emergency gathering called the Jerusalem Summit to address the global surge in antisemitism since October 7 and the deafening silence of so many churches and Christian leaders in response.

The conference will feature leading theologians and scholars who also will discuss new forms of Replacement theology, such as the “New Perspective on Paul,” and the need to restore to the Church an understanding of the Jewishness of Jesus and Hebraic Roots of Christianity which were left out of the Nicene Creed some 1700 years ago.

The Jewish People will celebrate the biblical holiday of Shavuot this week, marking 50 days since Passover. This ancient pilgrimage festival remembers the giving of the Law to Israel at Mount Sinai. Shavuot, or the Feast of Weeks, also holds many hidden prophetic parallels to the Day of Pentecost, when the Church was born in fire in Jerusalem some 2,000 years ago.

When Theology Creates Distance: The Church, Job, and Israel’s Suffering.

In this message, Nick Hansen explores the Book of Job as a mirror for the Church’s response to Israel in a time of rising hostility.

Moving from Job’s friends to the incarnation of Christ, the teaching challenges you to consider not only what the Church says when Israel suffers, but where the Church chooses to stand.

For over two and a half years now, Israel has been defending itself on seven fronts, starting with the brutal Hamas terror invasion from Gaza on October 7, 2023. During that time, Yair Pinto has been serving in the IDF while also reporting directly from the battlefield for TBN-Israel.

He shares about his unique experiences and perspective while serving “On the Frontlines of Israel’s Longest War.”

ICEJ President Dr. Bühler delivered an insightful Biblical teaching on the Book of Esther, highlighting a miraculous reversal in which the Jews prevailed and those who sought their destruction were destroyed. Esther had a choice to make.

Today, the Church faces a choice. Yet many Christians and churches seem to live in a bubble.
