The Importance of Signing the Israel Pledge

In 1891, the Jewish people were under attack.  Jewish towns and villages throughout Russia were being ransacked by violent, anti-Semitic mobs.  Thousands of Jews had been killed in cold blood, and more attacks loomed. 

While most Americans ignored these bloody incidents, many religious Christians stepped forward and took action.  Led by William Blackstone, a group of American Christians organized one of the first pro-Israel petitions in history – decades before there even was a State of Israel!  This petition – called the Blackstone Memorial -- declared that the only way to stop the bloodshed was to create a Jewish homeland in Palestine to serve as a safe haven for persecuted Jews from Russia and around the world. 

Today, the Jewish people are again under attack.  Jewish towns and villages throughout Israel are being assaulted by terrorist missiles and suicide bombers.  Thousands of Jews have been killed in cold blood.  More attacks loom.

Once again, most of the world is standing idly by as Jewish blood is spilled.  And once again, believing Christians are providing an exception to this rule of apathy. Throughout America and the world, Christians are outraged by these attacks and want to do something to stop them.

The first step in making a difference is standing up and being counted.  Just like a century ago, the time has come for Israel’s friends to step forward and openly declare their support.  What we need today is a Blackstone Memorial for a new century.  
Thank you for standing united with Israel.
May God Bless You and Those that You Love,
