On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I explain why I’ve shifted to a neutral stance on the Israel-Iran conflict. While mainstream media pressures us to “pick a side,” Scripture tells a deeper story, one that's not bound by modern borders or politics.
Christians are the true Israel, not by race or nation, but by faith in Christ. The Church is the chosen people of God, not a geopolitical state. So why are we being told that standing with the a government equals standing with God?
We’ll unpack the phrase “Judeo-Christian”—what it really means (and what it doesn’t)—and discuss how religiously manipulative narratives can cloud our judgment. Supporting everything any group does (whether Jewish, Christian, or Muslim) is not biblical discernment. It’s idolatry.
None of us are perfect. Not every Christian represents Christ well, and not every Jew or Muslim represents their faith’s ideals either. So let’s step back, seek the truth, and refuse to be emotionally blackmailed into blind allegiance.
