Across the whole world, antisemitism is surging at an alarming rate following the October 7 terror invasion. At the same time, Israel is increasingly delegitimised — not only politically, but also within theological discourse. Even within Evangelical and Charismatic circles, old doctrinal errors are returning dressed in new garments and biblical clarity is being quietly eroded. For this reason, we are urgently convening the Jerusalem Summit. Our aim is to equip Christian leaders to understand and respond to modern antisemitism, to restore biblical clarity on Israel, covenant and the Church, and to strengthen the Church’s public and theological witness in a time of confusion. This summit is intentionally practical. Participants will receive usable teaching from leading theologians and experts around the world, pastoral tools and resources ready for immediate implementation in churches, Bible schools and leadership networks. This is meant to be taught, preached and lived. The Jerusalem Summit is especially for pastors, theologians, Bible teachers and leaders responsible for doctrine, education and public witness — for all who love Israel and care about the integrity of the Church. Addressing the “New Perspective on Paul” and its implications for Israel and the Church Addressing antisemitism and new forms of replacement theology Continuing sessions on replacement theology, and revisiting the Nicæan Creed, suggesting an amendment for the Church today The Jerusalem Summit will be held in Jerusalem at the Vert Jerusalem Hotel (HaAliyah Street 1, Jerusalem, Israel) Jerusalem is not merely a backdrop — it is the **context.** © Copyright International Christian Embassy Jerusalem 2026 - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) --- ## URL: https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/full-schedule ### Title: Detailed Schedule ### Page ID: 9360562 ### Content: # PROGRAM # SCHEDULE ## TUESDAY ## WEDNESDAY ## THURSDAY [Thomas Schirrmacher](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#schirrmacher)[,](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#engle) [Pesach Wolicki](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#wolicki)[,](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#engle) [Robert Stearns](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#stearns)[,](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#troy) [Jürgen Bühler](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/speakers#buhler) The New Perspective on Paul and Replacement Theology.

He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob[ⁱ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations), the Lord God of Israel[ⁱⁱ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations). Weⁱ believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah[ⁱⁱⁱ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations), the only-begotten Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; through Him all things were made. He is the One of whom Moses, the Prophets and all the Hebrew Scriptures bear witness[ⁱᵛ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations). For us and for our salvation, to the Jew first and also to the Gentile[ᵛ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations), He came down from heaven; by the Holy Spirit He was incarnate of the Virgin Mary and was made truly man. He is the Son of Abraham and of David according to the flesh[ᵛⁱ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations), a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of His people Israelvii. For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered death and was buried. On the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures; He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father, as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root and Offspring of David[ᵛⁱⁱⁱ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations). From there He shall come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and His kingdom shall have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified, who has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church, in which Jew and Gentile are reconciled as one new man in Christ[ⁱˣ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations), and in which the nations, having been grafted into the cultivated olive tree by faith, share in the covenants and promises given through Israel[ˣ](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/affirmation-sign#citations). We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. iii Psalm 2:2; Daniel 9:25-26; Micah 5:2; John 1:41, 4:25; Romans 9:4-5, 15:8 iv Deuteronomy 18:15; Psalm 2:7; Daniel 7:13-14; Luke 1:68-70, 24:25-27; Romans 1:1-3 vi Matthew 1:1-17, 22:42; Luke 1:32; Romans 1:1-3; 2 Timothy 2:8 Presented in Jerusalem on 11 June 2026 at the Jerusalem Summit. [Download](https://www.icej.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/nicene-creed-poster.pdf) a PDF of the Jerusalem Affirmation of the Nicene Faith. The Jerusalem Affirmation of the Nicene Faith is a contemporary statement of Christian belief and commitment developed by respected theologians and church leaders gathered in Jerusalem in June 2026 under the auspices of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem. The Jerusalem Affirmation fully upholds every word of the Nicene Creed adopted 1700 years ago as a unifying statement of Christian faith built around the divinity of Jesus, while also addressing its key omissions concerning the humanity of Jesus as a Jew, which were essential to establishing his credentials as the promised Messiah. This Affirmation also aims to restore our appreciation for the uniquely central role of Israel, the Patriarchs and the Hebrew Scriptures in birthing and nourishing the Christian faith from its inception. Every new phrase added in this Affirmation is firmly grounded in New Testament truths. We invite you to join us by signifying your agreement with the Jerusalem Affirmation of the Nicene Faith. This is especially needed today to restore to the wider Church a more biblical understanding of the rightful place Israel and the Jewish people still hold in God’s redemptive purposes. © Copyright International Christian Embassy Jerusalem 2026 - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#about) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) - [Speakers](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Music](/music) - [Jerusalem Affirmation](/affirmation-sign) - [Packages](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#packages) - [Topics](#topics) - [Program](https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/#program) - [Venue](#venue) --- ## URL: https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/blog ### Title: Blog ### Page ID: 8772167 ### Content: © Copyright International Christian Embassy Jerusalem 2026 - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) --- ## URL: https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/reset-password-page ### Title: Reset password page ### Page ID: 8772173 ### Content: © Copyright International Christian Embassy Jerusalem 2026 - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) - [Home](/) - [About](#about) - [Topics](#topics) - [Speakers](#contributors) - [Speakers](/speakers) - [Venue](#venue) --- ## URL: https://jerusalemsummit.icej.org/schedule ### Title: Schedule ### Page ID: 8772179 ### Content: # SCHEDULE Quisque eget odio ac lectus vestibulum faucibus eget.  Sed molestie augue sit amet leo consequat posuerere.

The authentic Jewish Jesus comes from the distant and foreign world of Second Temple Period Judaism proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of heaven. Jesus' kingdom teachings of love, forgiveness, reconciliation, and healing have deep roots in Hebrew soil. Jewish wisdom from that time brings fresh meaning and practical application for all time.
