The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) passed a resolution promoting prayer and support for Israel during its recent annual meeting. This resolution comes at a critical time. In 2005, the global movement of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) was initiated against Israel. But 23 states have passed resolutions supporting Israel and opposing BDS, and that number continues to grow.

The SBC resolution states, in part, that “we support the right of Israel to exist as a sovereign state and reject any activities that attack that right by promoting economic, cultural, and academic boycotts against Israel.”
