    Israel And Human Rights
Author: John Warwick Montgomery

American evangelicals, especially dispensationalists, have a tendency to whitewash whatever the modern Israeli government does, owing to a supposed identification of contemporary Israel with the Israel of the Old Testament and biblical prophecy. So concerned about this was the late President Sadat of Egypt that he invited Dr. Montgomery and five other evangelical leaders to meet with him to provide a more balanced picture. In this lecture, Dr. Montgomery offers an in-depth analysis based both upon Scripture and upon the human rights record of modern Israel vis-à-vis the Palestinian problem and the Near East situation in general.

Christian Faith and Human Rights


  Christian Faith and Human Rights: The Pascal Lectures, 1987
Author: John Warwick Montgomery

In 1987, Dr. Montgomery delivered the annual Pascal Lectures at the University of Waterloo. In clear, precise, and easy to understand language, he details why the inter-relationship between human rights and Christian theology is so critical. He explains why the justification for human rights can only be founded on a revelation that transcends human knowledge. He then provides reasons why Christians, on the basis of that revelation, should be keenly interested and active in human rights issues. These lectures are based on Dr. Montgomery's book, Human Rights and Human Dignity. (Canadian Institute for Law, Theology and Public Policy, 1995)

    Trial of "Athens 3"
Author: John Warwick Montgomery

In May, 1986, at the Court of Appeals in Athens, Dr. Montgomery successfully defended three evangelical missionaries who had been given three-and-a half year prison terms for "proselytizing." The President of the United States and many congressional leaders had written to the Greek government in support of the defendants. Following the trial, Dr. Montgomery was asked to deliver a lecture on the subject at the International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem (June 19, 1986). Here is the recording of that account of one of the major Christian human rights trials of our time.
