Something good out of Nazareth
Many people, when they think of the work
of the gospel in Israel, firstly think about
the significance of the return of the Jews
from the Diaspora and the growth of the
Messianic movement among them.
But this has often obscured the fact that
there has been a continuing Christian church
in the Holy Land since the time of the apostles, and that
indigenous Arab evangelical
Protestant churches have been present and
growing for over 100 years. Most of these are
Baptist, with
some Brethren, and, more
recently Pentecostal fellowships.
