Thomas Getman: When and How Did Evangelicals Become Zionists?

"Israel Lobby & American Policy" conference on March 2nd, 2018 at the National Press Club.
Thomas Getman is partner in a private consulting group that specializes in international, United Nations and Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) affairs and university seminars, on U.N. Reform and humanitarian interagency partnership building. He was World Vision’s executive director for international relations until March 1, 2009. He managed World Vision’s liaison activities with the U.N. and the World Council of Churches and was responsible for diplomatic relations with U.N. member missions in Geneva and with countries on sensitive tax, staff and protocol negotiations. He served until 2009 on the board of principals for the U.N. Deputy Secretary General for Emergency Relief in the U.N. Office of the Coordinator of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) as chair of a premier NGO consortium, the International Council of Voluntary Agencies (ICVA).
From 1996 to 2001, Getman was director of World Vision’s programs in Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza, where he was responsible for a staff of 30 for relief and development projects in Palestine, Israel, Jordan, and advocacy for peace. Previously, Getman served for 12 years as director of government relations for World Vision United States, at which time he founded WV’s office in DC. He interpreted U.S. government policy, pressed for needed foreign assistance, and advanced human rights, relief and development concerns with Congress and the White House. From 1976 to 1985, as a congressional legislative assistant and then director for Sen. Mark Hatfield (R-OR) his primary assignments were African and Mideast foreign policy and social justice - human rights. His most notable legislative contribution was to participate in the drafting of the Anti-Apartheid Act of 1985 (Law of ’86) after participating in the legal sanctions against Rhodesia and Uganda. Getman helped negotiate protocols with the presidents of Uganda and Zambia and encouraged warring African factions in their peace negotiations.
Getman holds a bachelor’s degree from Wheaton College (Illinois) and a master’s in theology (equivalency certificate) from Fuller Seminary.

Bingo!!! Bryan. And I must say that this issue of Zionism is one of the first straws that broke the back of my religion. I was an evangelical, but had major issues with dispenationalism . Still, I was yet ignorant of zionism until I met, and worked with a Palestinian. After listening to his side of the story, I began to see the lies of Zionism myself. I started to pay attention. Then, when Trump came along, I could not deny that there was something extremely wrong with my religion. My eyes opened even wider, and I realized that I had been brainwashed. I no longer even believe in any of it. I am a free, and happy Atheist now. No more religion for me. Oh Happy Days.

The end times, as you know, will be the worst. G-D, who is Love and Mercy, cannot bring such harm to us, and He cannot intervene when man's actions bring those times to fulfillment. How can we be rescued from the consequences of our actions? We could never learn or grow.

I'd much prefer that the title was 'some Evangelicals' than just straight Evangelicals. This gives the idea that all Evangelicals are in fact Zionists, which definitely isn't the case, and which thankfully the speaker makes clear in his presentation. I have had the great pleasure of getting to know Palestinian, Lebanese and Syrian evangelical Christian brethren, and as you can imagine, NONE of them are Zionist. I, like they, find the Zionism espoused by some Evangelicals deeply troubling and I do my best to lovingly show the Zionists I meet the other side of the story, i.e. the extent of Palestinian suffering, which many are simply not aware of.

[@rachelkingsley668]

I encountered this teachings at a church I was attached to and didn't realize what it was or even that there was a name for it, but I had a very uneasy feeling about the persistent relentless teachings focused on Israel being exclusively "God's people." Although I felt positively about Israel from my Bible readings, there was an air of idolatry that permeated these teachings that made me feel this wasn't right. Now after doing my research after Oct 7th and discovering new disturbing truths about modern day Israel, I realize my unease was a conviction by the Holy Spirit warning me not to indulge in false doctrine.

[@achoice2bmade]

I've heard it referred to as "Israel based prophecy " (Zionism), versus "Jesus based prophecy" (non Zionist).

[@poewitx]

So,glad you discovered the truth about the lies of dispensationalism. I too am a follower of Jesus and never understood the preoccupation with modern Israel, it’s is found no where in the New Testament. The Gospel of Jesus is a Gospel of peace and love, modern Israel is all about hate and war, it’s disgusting. What you said is encouraging as I hope more and more true followers of Jesus will see that it idolatry to be so pro Zionist.God bless you

[@fatimaprosper3648]

I was born and raised as a Christian. I did not know to much of anything about religion, but I always prayed to God for everything. And I found much comfort in doing so. But the very first time I heard anything about Islam I was on a train in NYC, when I was approached and was introduced to Islam and it entered my heart instantly. And I begged God to guide me to what’s right, and he did. And until today I feel very happy about my decision. But to say I hate Christian’s and Christianity will be stupid and a lie. And that I should kill them were very they are sound ludicrous to me. I don’t believe in turning the other cheek either. But just plain Common Sense will let us know that you can’t go around just killing people because you don’t like them and because you think that you are better than them because of how they look or ethnicity. To me that’s just like the Devil saying to his Creator that he’s better than Adam, and the Evil that he’s going to course among his offspring. How could you be spitting on Christian people in the holy land and killing Muslims in the holy land and even think for a second that you are the chosen ones and that God give you that right. Who are you? And were did you come from? Are you even the real Jews ? Please go back to The prophet Moses and see what part of the world did he come from. I don’t even want to go there. But I think that the real Christian’s and the real Jews and the real Muslims should really get together and stop all of this nonsense and madness that going on in the world. The the politicians at all about money they don’t know anything about God look at their lives style and it’s right in your face, money, money, money, power, power power no care for the human none at all so until the people who believe in a higher power sincerely seek that higher power to do something and stop these demons that’s run in the world we are going to be in the powers of the demons forever. God is all power so never stop seeking that help. Peace alway’s love always ❤

Swinging from one extreme to another. Lumping all monotheists together as some sort of divinely preferred spiritual group of whom the Church is only a subset is an ecclesiology that is at least as heretical as dispensationalism.

[@molliestanton2869]

By 3 peoples' you mean the 3 Abrahamic faiths who believe in ONE G-D, with Christians believing in the triune G-D. Take it a step further, Buddhists believe in the ONE reality, while Hindus embrace the many faces, or characteristics of the Divine, with a trinity. Buddha is quoted, " Do not do to others, what you would not have them do unto you." Jesus: "Do unto others what you would have them do unto you." Hindu swami: " Bless those who treat you harshly." Jesus" Bless those who persecute you." Not easy to understand!, but common threads in the major religions..

Very important to read the Bible continually, hoping and praying Jesus gives you understanding of verses like these, Luke 12:51 “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:” Luke 12:52 “For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.” Matthew 24:6 “And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” 1 John 2:27 “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” Romans 3:4 “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.” 2 Thessalonians 3:6 “Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.”

[@b-i-b-l-ebasicinstructions5786]

Anyone who claims to possess even a shred of morality, ethics and compassion about innocent people who are suffering unbelievably and being savagely decimated by IDF with the full backing of the U.S. government in every sense of the word, should keep this in mind: Don't say that you are for the protection and recognition of innocent, civilian Palestinians just because you think that it means safety and security for the (state) of Israel. Such noble values should be urged and implemented immediately because it is the RIGHT thing to do, morally. Period. Full-stop. It stems from the Biblical 'Golden Rule' which is not just taught in the New Testament. Any professing Christian should support and adhere to (a real travesty that 'Christian'-Zionists who have ‘drunk the kool-aid’ do NOT give a whit about it however when it comes to the innocent Palestinians in Gaza including lots of Palestinians Christians!) and btw, the Golden Rule is also clearly taught in the Hebrew (Torah) scriptures. There's unequivocally a real disconnect with this whole ordeal. But we should not care about treating others like you would want to be treated only when you see it might advantage you or your agenda. Do it because genuine righteousness (right-doing) calls for, in fact it screams out for it. State of Israel leaders in their attempt to justify their mass annihilation of innocent Palestinian Civilians including women, children, the ill, handicapped and the elderly (as revenge for October 7 attack on SOI by Hamas invaders) are heard citing Old Testament (First) Testament verses such as: 1 Samuel 15:2-4, "This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘I witnessed what the Amalekites did to the Israelites when they ambushed them on their way up from Egypt. Now go and attack the Amalekites and devote to destruction all that belongs to them. Do not spare them, but put to death men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and donkeys. So Saul summoned the troops and numbered them at Telaim-200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 men of Judah.…" True, during the existence of a ‘Theocracy’ in the Old (First) Testament, YHWH did instruct (ancient) Israel to carry out that wholesale slaughter of their enemy. But pray tell who told the modern (state) of Israel to unleash their relentless campaign of carnage upon the helpless, defenseless and poor Palestinians? Hmmm?

Hmm! As a Christian I’m commanded to love all of mankind and I do. I’ve been to Israel several times and not with a Christian pastor nor Christian group. Studying scripture I know as will as the Evangelical church members (that I know) that nothing we can do will speed up nor change the return of Christ timing. Unlike the followers of Islam who believe that they can hasten the return of the Madi. It seems Getman has chosen an area of debate that although tragic and horrific even if the death of one innocent person occurs and yet not the thousands of humans murdered by groups and governments each year. The Jewish people have been persecuted and murder by rulers, governments, Roman Catholic Church, Muslims, European nations…for thousands of years. Does Getman not get who propagates such hate in the hearts and minds of people. Not judging, yet I wonder if he knows our Lord and Savior. Israel is surrounded by people groups and religion that, well I don’t need to spell it out…that wants them totally wiped off the face of the earth. There is no excuse for innocence deaths by anyone so I do not make excuses for the nation of Israel. A common comment by the Arabs I talk to in Israel “we would like the trouble making terrorist to stop, so that I can make a living for my family and live in peace”!

Easy .... When they read Scripture. Amazing the kind "difficult" questions you find online. 🤔

[@ericfaith2810]

There is so much misinformation. For example, the number of 'the beast' is not a computer chip that everyone gets tagged with. The number refers to how the Hebrew word for 'caesar' might look like 'ksrvs' which in Latin is 'caesarvs.' In Hebrew, which has no seperate numerical system like English, letters also represent numbers. So if you take these letters: Qoph/100 (K), Shin/300 (S), Reish/200 (R), Vav/6 (V), and Samekh/60 (S), and add them: 100+300+200+6+60=666. There are also ways in Greek to make Caesar Nero=666. So much of the Apocalypse of Daint John the Apostle can be easily explained if you take history into account rather than prejudiced reference works like the Scofield Teference Bible which imposes its own flawed and erroneous interpretations upon the texts of Sacred Writ. Aye, my father loves that song about 'Jesus loves all rhe children of the world.'

[@annewood8673]

All of the scriptures referring to the end-time, the end of time, the last days, melting elements and the passing away of heaven and earth do not refer to the end of the world but the end of Old Covenant Israel. The future destruction of the world simply is not represented in scripture. The "end times" seems to hold a particular fascination for American Evangelicals who are wrapped up in rapture theology. They curiously find hope in an expected destruction of the world and most of the population and its replacement with a utopia in which even carnivorous animals will take up vegetarianism. To understand Bible prophecy and the "end times", one must first grasp what happened in the year AD 70. This year marked the culmination of the Jewish-Roman War in which the Roman army decimated Jerusalem and the Jewish temple. Over a million Jews were killed, and the rest were sold into slavery. Israel ceased to exist as a nation, and Jerusalem and the temple were destroyed. This is theologically significant because this is when the age-old system of sacrifices for sin ended forever. While Jesus’ First Advent marked the beginning of the New Covenant Age, the Old Covenant Age (the age of the law) was swept away in finality in AD 70. There was a period of about 40 years from 30 - 70 AD in which the two systems existed side-by-side. www.scripturerevealed.com/prophecy/world-without-end-amen/

The problem is, its difficult to find reliable and verifiable sources on Palestine and Israel in the 20th century with important details. I see claims everywhere, and while I remember much of them, I don't know which is true. I am certain Israelis change their narrative, when their last one doesn't work. One which doesnt make sense, is they say, no one used to live there, when obviously, there are Palestinians living there, who are being kicked out of their homes. That's a contradictory claim. To state it more clearly, Palestinians had to live in a place to be kicked out by Israelis, yet the Israelis claim they didn't live there? Thousands of Palestinians magically appeared in houses everywhere, the exact day before Isralies came to steal their homes. I will say, no matter of the diplomacy or history of the founding of Israel, that it doesn't give Israelis the right to take Palestinian homes. Now, that last one was also under the asumption that Israeli supporters were telling the truth about Palestine, and regardless of who started it. Now, it appears that Israelis kicked Palestinains out of their homes then. I saw the claim before that Truman said, he didn't have Arab constituents, and he had Jewish and pro Israel constituents, so he'll support Israel. I couldnt verify that. Now, he says a claim which supports that. So, that with history, leads me to give what he said more credibility about US presidents way of supporting Israel at the expense of Palestine.
