The Religious Roundtable and the Apostolic Congress are sponsoring a grassroots campaign in support of Israel. Their respective leaders, Chairman Edward E. McAteer and Executive Director Pastor Robert Upton are helping spearhead an effort to assist Israel at this crucial moment in history.
The group leads a billboard campaign that petitions President Bush to honor God's covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The campaign reflects the growing concern within the Christian community that the "road map" for "peace" - introduced by the U.S. in conjunction with the European Union, Russia and the U.N. - will dictate the surrender of biblical lands promised to Israel - an affront to all believers.
Thousands of bumper stickers have been sent out nationwide to communities asking that Americans pray that President Bush honor God's covenant with Israel. The billboard campaign delivers the same message and quotes from scripture; "And the Lord said to Jacob.. 'Unto you will I give this land!" (Genesis 35:11-12)
The billboards ask that people contact the White House at 202-456-1111 and provides the web site for the Apostolic Congress - www.apostoliccongress.com .
These billboards will be appearing shortly in your locales as part of a national campaign, and the bumper stickers continue to be distributed.
