Christians Tackle Divestment From Israel - With Investment
Julie Stahl, Jerusalem Bureau Chief, CNSNews.com


They're hoping to counteract a campaign by a pro-Palestinian group,
which has encouraged Christian denominations in the USA to divest from
Israel.

The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem's is holding its annual Feast of Tabernacles celebration in Jerusalem this week. The ICEJ - in
conjunction with the Brussels-based International Christian Chambers of
Commerce (ICCC) and the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce -urged Christians to invest in Israel at a press conference on Thursday.

The weeklong ICEJ conference coincides with the Jewish holiday of Succoth.

This year more than 5,500 Christians - the largest number in the
organization's 26-year history - from more than 70 nations are attending
the festival.

(Christian Zionists believe that the Bible promises the Land of Israel to
the Jewish people as an eternal inheritance, as per Ezekiel 36, Jeremiah 31:31, Isaiah 40-45, Zechariah 12 etc)

The "invest in Israel" initiative comes at a time when a number of churchesin the U.S. have chosen to divest.

Rather than fight the divestment campaign by lobbying individual companies or churches, the ICEJ and the ICCC are taking a positive approach, said ICEJ Executive Director Malcolm
Hedding.

"In light of the troubling church divestment campaign as well as the
ongoing rebound in the Israeli economy, our ministry has committed to
redoubling its efforts to promote Christian investment in Israel," Hedding
said.
