The average rating for Christian Zionism based on 2 reviews is 3 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2011-07-17 00:00:00 Stephen Chmielewicz This is a must read by anyone wanting to understand Christian support for the state of Israel, and by anyone who is open to thinking about whether such support is the only way to read the Bible.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-09-21 00:00:00 Bryan Preston This book has some merit for its historical examination and theological critique of Christian support for Zionism. In my opinion, however, I consider it unfortunate that it appears heavily flawed by the author's tendencies to misrepresent his theological opponents, grossly distort the history and politics of the Arab-Israeli conflict, and cite antisemitic sources in order to bolster his radical anti-Israel agenda, which extends to insinuating Israeli complicity in 9/11. (It is not coincidental that, in 2015, the author was censured by Andrew Watson, the Bishop of Guilford, for posting "clearly anti-Semitic material" on social media.) The writings of Steve Motyer and Peter Walker are recommended as less extreme, more measured responses to the theological tenets of Christian Zionism.
