The Pope, Benedict XVI, has written a new book, to be released next week on March 10 that discusses questions including who killed Jesus and why He died. Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance Into Jerusalem To The Resurrection is a sequel to Jesus of Nazareth: From the Baptism in the Jordan to the Transfiguration and attempts to answer the following questions:

• Why was Jesus rejected by the religious leaders of his day?
• Who was responsible for his death?
• Did he establish a Church to carry on his work?
• How did Jesus view his suffering and death?
• How should we?
• And, most importantly, did Jesus really rise from the dead and what does his resurrection mean?

One of the significant arguments made by the Pope is that the Jews, as a collective, were not responsible for his death, a significant break from historical Christian thought. This book should be a very interesting read for Christians of every denomination. To preorder Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance Into Jerusalem To The Resurrection, click on this link. The hardcover is only $13.72.

There is no better defender of Israel in America than Pastor John Hagee. God Bless!

Great video from our friends from Christians United for Israel, singing Hava Nagila. Amazing!

Fellow Christians, do you believe the Jews have the right to live in the State of Israel, free of fear? If so, you’re going to love hearing about the organization called The New Israeli Guardians (Hashomer HaChadash in Hebrew). After noting that Israeli farmers and ranchers were living in fear from being attacked by Bedouins, including his father, Yoel Zilberman had enough and began banding together his fellow Israel Defence Forces graduates to protect his fellow Israelis and their land. To hear (errr, read, because it’s in Hebrew) what Israeli ranchers and farmers were living with, you must see this video:

I’m sure our readers will agree that this organization is worthy of our applause, support and donations. However, if you’re not convinced, here’s another video, explaining the history of this amazing Israeli organization, from it’s founder Yoel Zilberman.

While their donations options are primitive (they only accept bank transfer and check), they are worth of our support. Please spread this information far and wide to our fellow Christians!
