Synopsis

The lies come first. The violence always follows. 

Since October 7, 2023—the deadliest day for Jewish people since the Holocaust—the world has witnessed something alarming: the victims have been turned into villains. Mobs chant for Israel's elimination. University professors justify terrorism. Social media floods with accusations that previous generations would have instantly recognized as antisemitic propaganda—yet today they're repackaged as "justice." And many people of good will don't know what to think. 

This isn't random. It's a pattern as old as the the book of Esther. 

This book will help you:

• Recognize Haman's ancient propaganda template—Different, Disloyal, Dangerous, Disposable—and see how it's being repeated today 
• Answer the twenty-five most common lies being told about Israel with historical truth and biblical clarity
• Discern the spirit behind the rising tide of hatred and global antisemitism
• Rise up like Esther to stand with God's covenant people—for such a time as this 

Don't be deceived. Don't be silent. Read this book and rise up.

Why This Book?

For over fifty years, I (Jimmy) have studied Bible prophecy. John and I have both written and extensively about the signs of the times, the return of Christ, and what Scripture reveals about the last days. My (Jimmy’s) book Tipping Point examined the prophetic significance of the moment we are living in—how the convergence of signs tells us we are the final generation before the Lord’s return.

But we have never seen anything like what is happening right now.

Since 7 October 2023—the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust—we have watched in astonishment as the victims have been turned into villains. We have seen demonstrators in major cities chanting for the elimination of Israel “from the river to the sea.” We have watched university professors justify terrorism. We have seen social media flooded with accusations that any previous generation would have instantly recognized as antisemitic propaganda, yet today they are repackaged as “justice,” “equity,” or “decolonization.”

And we’ve seen many Christians—people who genuinely love Jesus and believe the Bible—struggle to know what to think. They hear these accusations repeated so often, with such confidence and emotion, that they begin to wonder:

Could some of this be true?

Is Israel really an “apartheid state”?

Are the Palestinians really victims of “genocide”?

If I support Israel, am I supporting oppression?

This book is our answer to those questions. But it is more than that. It is an attempt to show you something almost everyone is missing: The propaganda assault against Israel is not merely political. It is spiritual. It is the newest expression of an ancient hatred—a hatred that has pursued the Jewish people through every century, every empire, and every civilization. And it carries profound prophetic significance.

We are not watching random events. We are watching prophecy unfold in real time. And the lies being spread about Israel are not peripheral to that story—they are part of it. They reveal exactly where we are on God’s prophetic timeline.

A Word to Those Who Wonder Why This Book Is Necessary

Before we go further, we want to address a few objections you may already be forming. We have heard them from friends, from fellow pastors, and even from our own inner critics. They deserve an honest response.

“This book is written for people who already agree with you.”

Yes, we am writing primarily for evangelical Christians. We make no apology for that. But here is something that deeply concerns us: Antisemitism is no longer confined to the fringes. It is creeping into conservative churches—churches that should know better, churches that claim to believe the Bible. We are watching pastors stay silent because they don’t want to be controversial. We are watching congregations absorb anti-Israel talking points from social media without ever hearing a biblical response from the pulpit. We are watching young believers—raised in the church—adopt positions that previous generations would have instantly recognized as hostile to Scripture and to God’s Covenant People.

The infection has reached the household of faith. That is why we are writing to believers first. If the Church does not recover its clarity on this issue, we will have failed at a critical moment in prophetic history. We will have repeated the silence of the German churches in the 1930s. And we refuse to be part of that silence.

“Israeli policy gets criticized everywhere. Why add another voice?”

That objection actually proves our point. Israeli policy is criticized everywhere—on every network, in every newspaper, on every campus, across every social media platform. The criticism is relentless, often one-sided, and frequently indistinguishable from the propaganda we document in this book. But where is the platform for an answer? Where can ordinary Christians hear a thoughtful, biblically grounded response to the accusations they encounter daily?

The mainstream media is not providing that response. The academic community is not providing it. In many cases, even the Church is not providing it. This book exists because someone needs to say clearly what too few are willing to say: These accusations are not merely mistaken—they are part of an ancient spiritual pattern, and they must be answered.

“You don’t seem to acknowledge Palestinian suffering.”

Let us be clear: The suffering of Palestinian civilians is real, and it is tragic. Every innocent life lost—Jewish or Arab—is an image-bearer of God. Every mother who weeps over a child, every family displaced by war, every person caught in the crossfire of a conflict they did not choose—these realities should grieve anyone with a functioning conscience. They grieve us deeply.

But here is the problem we are trying to address: The narrative of Palestinian suffering has been weaponized. It has been divorced from context, stripped of history, and deployed as a tool to demonize the Jewish state and justify its elimination. Most adults in the Western world have already absorbed this weaponized version. They have heard the accusations of genocide and apartheid repeated so often that they accept them as fact. They have seen the images. They have felt the emotional pull. What they have not heard—what almost no one is telling them—is how those images and emotions are being manipulated to serve an agenda as old as Haman.

This book does not exist to minimize anyone’s suffering. It exists to expose the lies that exploit suffering in order to advance destruction. Those are not the same thing.

“Your language is too strong. You seem angry.”

We are unapologetic about the strength of what we say in these pages. If some of our words sound forceful, consider what they are responding to. We are responding to calls for genocide chanted openly on American streets. We are responding to the murder of over 1,200 people on a single October morning—and to the global movement that celebrated it. We are responding to Jewish students hiding their identity on campuses their parents are paying tuition for them to attend. We are responding to synagogues firebombed, to mezuzahs torn from doorposts, to the highest levels of antisemitic violence since the Holocaust.

Blood speaks louder than this book ever could. If our words sound strong, it is because we are trying to match the gravity of what is happening—not to exceed it. When people are calling for the elimination of an entire nation, measured tones can become a form of complicity. There is a time for diplomatic language, and there is a time to call a lie exactly what it is. We are living in the second kind of time.

“The book is long. Did you really need to address twenty-five lies?”

Yes, we did.

This subject has been systematically overlooked among American Christians. For decades, support for Israel was assumed in evangelical churches—it was part of the air we breathed. But assumptions are not the same as understanding. When the cultural winds shifted, when the propaganda intensified, when the accusations became sophisticated and emotionally compelling, many believers discovered they had convictions without foundations. They knew they were supposed to support Israel, but they didn’t know why. And when the pressure came, their support crumbled.

This book is an attempt to provide the foundations that were never properly laid. It is an attempt to be extensive because the assault is extensive. Every lie we address in these pages is a lie we have heard from real people—including Christians—who have absorbed it without ever encountering a serious response. If we had written a shorter book, we would have left some of those lies unanswered. And unanswered lies do not go away. They metastasize.

So yes, this book is long. It is long because the moment demands it. It is long because too little has been said for too long. And it is long because we would rather give you more than you need than leave you without the answers you are looking for.

Now, with those objections addressed, let us show you the pattern that makes all of this so dangerous—and so predictable.
