Reminder
Join us Thursday, December 10, 2009 from 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM
A Vigil for Peace and Justice
Christians United For Israel s (CUFI)
PASTORS LUNCHEON & MIDDLE EAST BRIEFING
Phoenix Marriot Mesa
200 N. Centennial Way, Mesa, AZ 85201
If you plan to attend our vigil please meet us in front of the Phoenix Marriott Mesa at 11:00 a.m.
For those who can t attend, we appreciate your prayers and words of encouragement. We even accept disparaging words like the email we received that accused us of taking John Hagee s message out of context. Any reasonable person who has studied what Jesus has taught us would say that a a call by a follower of Christ for a preemptive military strike against Iran would clash with Jesus commands like “Love Your Enemies,” “Blessed Are The Peacemakers,” & “Love Your Neighbor As Yourself.”
QUOTES FROM JOHN HAGEE ABOUT WAR AND THE SUPPORT OF ISRAEL:
* The enemy is Islam-fascism
* No Bible believing Christian can support disengagement. (Referring to Iraq)
* You are not going to heaven if you do not like the Jewish people.
* The claims (to land) of the Palestinians are a historic fraud…they never owned the land…this makes them gasp for air like catfish out of water.
* I would hope the United States would join Israel in a military pre-emptive strike to take out the nuclear capability of Iran for the salvation of Western civilization.
THE RULES OF THE VIGIL:
* You may be able to park your car on the street or in a parking garage. The entire vigil will be conducted on public right-of-ways.
* Watch for the big Yellow and Black Strait Gate signs at the site. Instructions will be provided on what you can do.* Signs are furnished, some of which read:
BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS
NO MORE WARS FOR ISRAEL
IRAQ? WWJD? (WHAT WOULD JESUS DO)
CHOOSE LIFE, NOT WAR.
CHRISTIAN RACISM KILLS PALESTINIANS
INNOCENT BLOOD ON OUR HANDS
* Bring posters and large photos of the true Middle East conditions.
* Refrain from loud exchanges with anyone, this is a quiet vigil, do not argue…, but educate.
* Please give space and respect to those who come out to talk.
