this one is for Sam and a few others who might find it interesting enough to think about
I can't stop thinking about this one so I did some digging and exploratory research
where did this difference comes from......
"Christian Zionism is a belief among some Christians that the return of the Jews to the Holy Land and the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948 were in accordance with Bible prophecy."
obviously from this
but where did that come from? I am not a very religious man so I honestly did not know
Quote:
Dispensationalists believe that Israel as a nation will embrace Jesus as their messiah toward the end of the Great Tribulation, right before the Second Coming. Classical dispensationalists refer to the present-day Church as a "parenthesis" or temporary interlude in the progress of Israel's prophesied history.[8]

Ok.....so where did that come from?
Quote:
Classic dispensationalism began with John Nelson Darby. Darby was succeeded by C. I. Scofield[10]

Also gets its primary origins and pushing from the Plymouth Brethren
The Scofield bible did it
well it does fit the discourse I am seeing online

Civil War service
By 1861, Scofield was living with relatives in Lebanon, Tennessee. At the beginning of the American Civil War, the 17-year-old Scofield enlisted as a private in the 7th Tennessee Infantry, C.S.A., and his regiment fought at Cheat Mountain, Seven Pines, and Antietam. In 1862, after spending a month in Chimborazo Hospital in Richmond, Scofield successfully petitioned for a discharge.[3] Scofield then returned to Lebanon and was conscripted again into Confederate service. Ordered to McMinnville, Tennessee, Scofield deserted and escaped behind Union lines in Bowling Green, Kentucky.[4] After taking the Union oath of allegiance, Scofield was allowed safe passage to St. Louis, Missouri, where he settled.[5]

Lawyer and politician
In 1873 he worked for the election of John J. Ingalls as senator from Kansas, and when Ingalls won, the new senator had Scofield appointed U. S. District Attorney for Kansas***8212;at 29, the youngest in the country.[7] Nevertheless, that same year Scofield was forced to resign "under a cloud of scandal" because of questionable financial transactions, that may have included accepting bribes from railroads, stealing political contributions intended for Ingalls, and securing bank promissory notes by forging signatures.[8] It is possible Scofield was jailed on forgery charges, although there is no extant evidence in the public records.[9]
Perhaps in part because of his self-confessed heavy drinking,[10] Scofield abandoned his wife and two daughters during this period.[11] Leontine Cerrè Scofield divorced him on grounds of desertion in 1883, and the same year Scofield married Hettie Hall von Wartz, with whom he eventually had a son.[12]

What a man and what a resume.......
Not hard to imagine how he could sell his religion and people out when this is what he did for a living and lifestyle
but it gets better than even this........

While Dispensationalism had considerable influence through the Scofield Bible, Christian lobbying for the restoration of the Jews preceded the publication of the Scofield Reference Bible (first published by OUP, 1909) for over a century,[6]

Christian Zionism - Wikipedia
No kidding.....
Quote:
In 1844, George Bush, a professor of Hebrew at New York University and the cousin of an ancestor of the Presidents Bush, published a book titled The Valley of Vision; or, The Dry Bones of Israel Revived. In it he denounced "the thralldom and oppression which has so long ground them (the Jews) to the dust," and called for "elevating" the Jews "to a rank of honorable repute among the nations of the earth" by allowing restoring the Jews to the land of Israel where the bulk would be converted to Christianity.[35] This, according to Bush, would benefit not only the Jews, but all of mankind, forming a "link of communication" between humanity and God. "It will blaze in notoriety ...". "It will flash a splendid demonstration upon all kindreds and tongues of the truth."[7]

Well that name looks familiar
Quote:
George Bush (12 June 1796, Norwich, Vermont ***8211; 19 September 1859, Rochester, New York) was an American biblical scholar, pastor, abolitionist, academic and advocate for the restoration of the Jews to the Holy Land. He is distantly related to the Bush political family.[1]

And now it all makes sense
it all went full circle
Maybe Christians should work on all the Zionist Jews converting to Christianity, or accepting Jesus as their own Messiah, as the revelation requires......before giving them everything they ever wanted forever and getting less than nothing but hatred back in return.
