Christian Zionism EXPLAINED (part 1 to 3)

This is three videos from Kayse Melone that explains the phenomenon of Christian Zionism.   She grew up in a Christian Zionism household and since then she studied this strange phenomenon.

The first video is an explanation or origin story.

Christian Zionism is the most harmful belief in the United States. After growing up indoctrinated in the Evangelical Christian church, I can promise you that the depths of this insidious ideology go much deeper than you think. As someone who was raised to call myself a Zionist as a child, I’m pulling back the curtain on this theological and political movement to trace its roots all the way from the Protestant Reformation in Europe to the modern-day genocide still happening in Palestine.

If you were taught to “stand with Israel,” this is the history lesson you were never meant to hear.

The second is an examination from pulpit to politics.

This is Part 2 of my 3-part series exploring the roots and results of this concept. From British imperial interests to televangelist media empires, in this segment, I trace how Christian Zionism jumped from the pages of the Bible to the halls of Congress. Christian Zionism is fueling United States foreign policy, shaping public opinion, and justifying genocide in real time.
This segment is a no-holds-barred look at how Christian mythology became a geopolitical weapon, and why it’s still one of the most dangerous belief systems in America today.

The third is an expose of the money behind it.

Christian Zionism is funded to the scale of billions of dollars on behalf of everyday people in the United States. Every Sunday, millions of families in this country make their way to their local church – and the majority of those churches stand behind the settler occupation of the state of Israel. No matter the cost. The money behind the powerful and harmful ideology of Christian Zionism is one of the most corrupt and immoral facets of today’s world. As the third part of my series on Christian Zionism, this segment might be the most important.

She talks from her perspective in the United States but having grown up in a Christian Zionist home myself, there is nothing different between countries.  It remains an ideological indoctrination.
