Bishop Plummer says “time for silence is over;” urges dialogue and stepped-up support from current Israeli government
An Evangelical bishop backed a statement issued by the heads of traditional Christian churches in the Holy Land, saying that the time for remaining silent is over in the face of radicalized hatred and attacks on Christians and their holy places.
“There’s a verse in the Book of Ecclesiastes, that King Solomon wrote, that ‘There’s a time to be silent and there’s a time to speak up,’” Bishop Glenn Plummer told ALL ISRAEL NEWS. “It has been, in my opinion, a rather long period of silence concerning the problems here against Christian believers and against Jewish Messianic believers.”
Plummer, the Bishop of Israel for the Church of God in Christ (COGIC) – the world’s largest Pentecostal denomination – is now breaking that silence.
