The response of the leaders of Israel is united. They were not always united, but they are here.
In 1963 when my wife and I began to pioneer a church at Borehamwood, we hadn't been there very long when we had a very pleasant approach. It actually came from the Rector of an evangelical Lutheran Church in the town, and he claimed to be, evangelical. He was certainly very experienced and very charming. He wanted us to go to meetings of the inter-church council, ecumenical meetings, which were mainly attended by liberals, and anti-evangelicals, and Catholics. He was a member of that council. How crafty! They had an evangelical man who actually believed Biblical truths on their ecumenical council, working with all these men who rejected these things, and spurned them and scorned them. They picked him to send to try and recruit us. That is invariably Satan's first approach: one of conciliation.
