Opinion: Reflecting on Gaza: An open letter to my Messianic Brothers and Sisters
A Palestinian Evangelical Christian leader, challenges Messianic Jews to consider their responsibility related to the bloody events of Gaza. He asks, “will you look me in the eyes next time we meet and shake my hands while the hands of your army are still wet with the blood of my people!?” He asserts the need for advocating a theology of peace rather than justifying a theology of war.

Essays: Allah and the Messenger of Allah in the Book of Malachi
Christian Arabs in the Middle East hear the Islamic call to prayer five times a day. The Loud speakers make it clear that Allah is great (الله ٲكبر) and then invite the worshipers to prayer. Allah (الله) is the Arabic word for God. Just like the first century Christians used the Greek word theos (θεος) to refer to the God of Christianity, Arab Christians use the word Allah to refer to the triune God. Put differently, both Christians and Muslims use the label Allah to denote the Supreme Being who declared His will through His messengers. Interestingly, the last Old Testament book, Malachi, is sympathetic to asserting the greatness of Allah!

Book Reviews: "The Second Coming of Jesus"
Several Christian Arab Scholars and Pastors in the
Holy Land are leaving Premillennialism and turning to
Amillennialism. However, few people possess the
boldness of Rev. Yousif Odeh, a well know minister in Galilee area. After promoting the teaching of
Premillennialism for decades, he comes to a point
where he changes his position. Furthermore, he
decides to publicly defend Amillennialism and to
promote it in writing. In other words, his book is an
apologetics of Amillennialism and a refutation of
Premillennialism especially its Dispensational branch.
