Church leaders in Jerusalem have issued a statement condemning Christian Zionism, calling it a 'damaging' ideology that threatens the unity of Christian communities in the Holy Land. The statement, attributed to the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches, warns that certain individuals are promoting divisive ideas with support from political figures in Israel, potentially harming the Christian presence in the region. The leaders assert that only they represent the Christian community in matters of faith and communal life, and express concern over increasing threats to Christian heritage, particularly in Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza. Recent reports highlight the urgent need to protect Christian communities amid rising violence and migration, with both Israeli and Palestinian leaders addressing the challenges facing Christians in the area.
