Why are these Presbyterian leaders so adamantly against Israel settling their own historical territory? Why the emotional investment?

As the first post, This is PC-USA, PCA or Orthodoxy Presbyterians. This is from the line in the 30s that decided a seminarian could preach who did not believe in the resurection. In the 70s, PC-USA funded socialist revelutionarys in Central America. When they starting funding abortions directly, that is when my denomination was formed and why the PCA has a Pro-Life plank.

Another plank men as Elders and Deacons, the women love it because the roles are well defined and the Women in the Church movement amoung us is thriving because of it.

Replacement theology is the natural extension of Hyper-Calvinism.

Calvin’s Clear Opinion from his writings in “A Response To Questions and Objections of a Certain Jew” - An Excerpt from “Ad Quaelstiones et Objecta Juaei Cuiusdam Responsio,” by John Calvin; The Jew in Christian Theology, Gerhard Falk, McFarland and Company, Inc., Jefferson, NC and London, 1931.

Their [the Jews] rotten and unbending stiffneckedness deserves that they be oppressed unendingly and without measure or end and that they die in their misery without the pity of anyone.

END QUOTE

If there is a denomination more Calvinistic than Presbyterians, I don’t know of one. PCA vs PCUSA hold this in common, what’s different is their politics.

Its not an emotional investment ... its a theological one.
