Antisemitism condemned

Evangelical churches in the UK have started to experience the impact of the significant increase in antisemitism since the start of the Israel-Gaza war on 7 October.

A church in Bridgend recently received a lengthy message through its online contact form saying: ‘It has become apparent that you fall into the category of dangerous Christians on account of your attitude to the Jewish people who are the biggest usurpers in the history of mankind … And yet the evangelical Christian world idolises them as though it was a duty to do so …’

Adam Thomas, pastor at Litchard Mission Church, said the individual who sent the message attended services there for a short time earlier this year, but he does not know what prompted the message. He said: ‘Antisemitism is evil, and I make no apologies for opposing and condemning it.’
