Christian Zionist Jim Hutchens says the recent homosexual pride parade in Jerusalem merely contributed to the moral climate that will bring about the besieging of Jerusalem foretold by prophets of the Bible.
Homosexuals and their supporters marched through the Holy City Thursday in direct defiance of the Hebraic scriptures as Orthodox Jews held a counter protest nearby. The so-called "gay pride" parade was allowed to proceed after Israel's Supreme Court rejected a petition to ban the event. Hutchens, president of The Jerusalem Connection International (TJCI), says the Bible warns of a worldwide moral decline that affects the Holy Land as well. "There is a judgment that God brings worldwide and on Israel, as a matter of fact. And I think those are the events that lead up to what we refer to as Armageddon, the apocalyptic besieging of Jerusalem," Hutchens contends. He says the upcoming elections in Israel and the U.S. will have a definitive effect on the moral climate of both countries in the days ahead. Hutchens believes Israel is faced with a Supreme Court similar to that of the U.S. "Unfortunately Israel does not have a constitution that guides its Supreme Court decisions, and it's known throughout the Western world as one of the most liberal courts that exists. And it goes, in this case, against the dictates of the Hebrew scriptures – and those are the people who were demonstrating against this gay pride parade in Jerusalem. It's the Orthodox Jews. They read the scriptures as much as we do [and] come out with the same conclusions that we do," Hutchens explains. Although same-sex "marriage" is not legal in Israel, Hutchens suggests the homosexual pride event is "a preview of future attractions."
