In this episode, I discuss what it truly means that Christ is supreme over all things. As an ex-Muslim and now a follower of Jesus, I share why my love for Christ is at the very center of my life and faith. I open up about my journey, my love for Jesus, and why knowing Him is the greatest privilege anyone can have.

I also explore how certain teachings within Christian Zionism can unintentionally diminish the core reality of Christ’s supremacy. I discuss the dangers of prioritizing political or ethnic concerns over Jesus and why dual-covenant theology doesn’t align with the gospel. Drawing from scripture, especially the books of Romans, Galatians, and Hebrews, I explain why salvation is found only in Christ, for both Jews and Gentiles.

Throughout the episode, I challenge listeners to return to the apostolic gospel, to proclaim Christ alone as Lord and Savior boldly, and to avoid letting political ideologies overshadow the heart of the Christian faith. Whether you’re curious about the intersection of faith, politics, and culture or just want to hear more about the beauty of Jesus, this episode is for you.

Join me as I unpack these important truths, share personal stories, and encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

In this episode, I dive deeper into the theology behind Christian Zionism and challenge the narratives that connect Jesus to modern political movements. I share my perspective on how Christian Zionist beliefs—like dispensationalism, replacement theology, and dual covenant theology—have shaped Western Christianity and often distorted the gospel. I unpack the roots and implications of these ideas, highlighting how they can fuel division and distract from the true message of Christ. My goal is to encourage you to re-examine your theology, prioritize unity in Christ, and resist the temptation to mix faith with nationalism or political agendas. Join me as I call believers to seek a deeper relationship with Jesus, embrace a gospel of reconciliation, and stand for justice and peace in a world full of conflict and confusion.

In this episode, I open up about my journey of questioning and deconstructing Christian Zionism. I share how my perspective shifted from seeing Islam as the root of all evil to recognizing the dangers of a specific branch of evangelical Christianity—Christian Zionism.

I break down what Christian Zionism is, where it came from, and how it has evolved into a powerful force shaping politics, foreign policy, and the lives of people in the Middle East. Drawing on my research, spiritual wrestling, and lived experience, I examine the history, theology, and practical implications of this ideology.

I also reflect on the pivotal events of October 7th, 2023, and how they changed my understanding of faith, politics, and compassion. This episode offers an honest and challenging examination of how religious beliefs can be distorted to justify harm, and why it’s crucial for us as Christians to critically evaluate any ideology that diverts attention from the centrality of Christ and the gospel.

Join me as I invite you to think critically, seek truth, and let the Holy Spirit guide us toward a faith that values justice, empathy, and the dignity of all people.
