In an unprecedented move, the World Jewish Congress has teamed up with the Knesset's Christian Allies Caucus to foster the growing relationship between pro-Israel Christians and the state of Israel.

"This is the first time that Knesset members and a major world Jewish organization, as well as a wide spectrum of Christian organizations, have banded together to create a Jerusalem-based coalition of Christians and Jews," said Bobby Brown, the director of international relations at the World Jewish Congress, at a ceremony in Jerusalem on Tuesday night marking the new cooperation between the groups.

The Knesset's Christian Allies Caucus, established in January with 12 MKs from six parties, aims to garner the support of, and work with, pro-Israel Christians around the world.

"For the past six months... we have been building the foundation for this historical and unprecedented alliance between Christians and Jews," said caucus director Josh Reinstein. Both Israelis and MKs from across the political spectrum are increasingly realizing the importance of this relationship, he added.

I would say we are getting closer, to trib as time marches on. When the Jewish and Christians can agree like this.

Amen, DW.

Not only that - but having the "teaming" actually acknowledged in a major newspaper!

I've always felt that as a Christian, I am bound by God to recognize and support Israel and the Jewish people.  I know I'm not alone in this, because not one iota of prophesy can be fulfilled with out a Jew being directly involved.
