Resurrection Palestine: In Search of Truth - Palestine Is the Real Israel of History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781501059681)

As the battles raged between Palestinian and Israeli security forces in September 1996, Terry McIntosh opened the Jesus House of Prayer, a Christian chapel in the city of ancient Jericho. As CEO and Pastor, he obtained permission for Christian events that Jericho's predominate Islamic community had never seen to include city wide public events. He enjoyed both military and police protection while sharing the gospel with all of Palestine in spite of radical opposition. McIntosh made an unprecedented appearance on Islamic television during Israel's military invasion dubbed "Operation Defensive Shield" in April 2002 with a message of peace addressed to both nations. He charged Israel to turn around and "give life," and he admonished Palestine to follow Christ crucified as the only hope for salvation. Attendance at the Jesus House of Prayer grew to such large numbers that home groups formed around McIntosh and his teachings about Jesus. McIntosh's influence in the Islamic world defied all logic and he found himself between two warring parties - Christianity and Islam. Christian peers accused McIntosh of working for Yasser Arafat and promoting terrorism. Islamic radicals issued a jihad against McIntosh and called for his death. He turned all ministry responsibility over to local ministers in 2007. McIntosh founded Jerusalem Direct, an international radio outreach that also aired on various radio stations in the United States and Palestine. He later founded the Jesus Christ Embassy Palestine, a Christian ministry with the mission of resurrecting Bible Truths.
