Christians United for Israel UK has a singular focus: Israel. We are defending Israel, both the people and the land, by standing upon the truth of the Bible.
Israel may seem like a narrow focus, but the battleground surrounding Israel is wide. Just as Israel is attacked from all angles; militarily, politically, spiritually, and more, the battle to defend Israel means we have to engage in every aspect of our own society, because the hatred for Israel has permeated every sphere of influence.
We realise now that as we defend Israel and stand with the truth of the Bible, it naturally leads us to fight for the very soul of Britain and for the health of the Church.
The situation for Israel may appear uncertain to the world, but we know God is on their side. Their future is secure in Him. The UK does not have that same assurance. Britain needs to get back to its Judeo-Christian roots and bless Israel. It cannot survive if it opposes God.
The 15th of April 2025 marked the 80th anniversary since the liberation of Bergen-Belsen, a Nazi concentration camp where tens-of-thousands of Jews were murdered, including Anne Frank and her sister Margot. It was also the first concentration camp that British forces liberated and where they uncovered the atrocities of the Holocaust first hand. When British troops arrived, 15,000 unburied corpses were discovered. It became a defining moment in Britain’s experience of the Holocaust and gave the troops involved renewed vigour towards defeating the Nazis.
Famously, BBC reporter Richard Dimbleby gave an emotional broadcast that the BBC initially refused to air, but Dimbleby threatened to quit, believing that the images must be shown so the public could see these horrors for themselves.
This was a time when Britain knew what it stood for. The soldiers on the front lines were fighting for a higher purpose than themselves. They were fighting for God, for King, and for the Christian values Britain stood for.
The BBC at that time was still seeking to uphold its founding values statement that put “Almighty God” at the forefront and challenges those working at the BBC with “a prayer that good seed sown may bring forth a good harvest, that all things hostile to peace or purity may be banished from this house, and that the people, inclining their ear to whatsoever things are beautiful and honest and of good report, may tread the path of wisdom and uprightness.”
Likewise, the pews of churches up and down the county were filled week in and week out, and when powerful days of prayer for our nation were embraced by all. The Word of God was preached without compromise and the majority of the UK believed in the God of Israel: Britain really could call itself a Christian nation.
What would the soldiers from Britain’s ‘greatest generation’ think of the UK today?
What would the God-fearing founders of the BBC think of the organisation in its current state?
What would the political giants of history make of the figures currently occupying the seats of Westminster?
How would the Christian trailblazers of old view the steep decline of Christianity in the UK?
We don’t know the answers, but we suspect that what they would see today is unrecognisable from the past, and is deeply troubling. These are dark times for our nation, and we cannot sit idly by while it happens.
