"Amidst the terrible geopolitical crises in Syria and Egypt -- and the nuclear threat growing from Iran -- the Middle East faces a far greater crisis: the absolute disconnect between the people and the Word of God. Israel and the Middle East is the land where the Bible was written. Yet most of the people in the epicenter have never read the Word.

Only 16% of Israeli Jews say they ever read the Hebrew Bible known as the Tanakh (the five books of Moses, the prophets and the writings), The vast majority of Arab Muslims have never even seen a Bible, much less read one.

Is there really any wonder then that if the half billion people in this region don’t know God’s Word, that they are not experiencing His peace, much less peace between nations and ethnic groups?

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has begun addressing the need for his people to rediscover the power of God’s Word. He is quoting Scripture in his key speeches and has even started a Bible study in the official residence." Joel Rosenberg 


It is only through The Word, The Word that became flesh - Yeshua haMashiach [Jesus the Christ] will peace come to any of us.
