Israel Appoints First-Ever Ambassador to the Christian World

Israel has appointed Ambassador George Deek as its first-ever special envoy to the Christian world, tasked with strengthening Judeo-Christian ties as Middle Eastern Christianity shrinks from 20% to under 2% of the regional population. This unprecedented diplomatic move signals a deepening alignment between Israel and the global Church at a moment of rising antisemitism and Christian persecution — a convergence Scripture indicates will mark the final age. The Bible foretells a time when the nations will take sides regarding Israel, and the drawing together of Jewish and Christian peoples around the holy land echoes Zechariah 8:23, where the nations grasp the robe of a Jew saying 'Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'
