The tragic and senseless murders of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim on the streets of Washington, D.C., are far more than another headline—they should stir the conscience of the global Church.
Both Yaron and Sarah were staff members at the Israeli Embassy, devoted defenders of the Jewish state. Their lives were cut short in what authorities are investigating as a blatant act of antisemitic terrorism. Let that sink in—Jewish people are being gunned down in the U.S. capital for their support of Israel.
But this tragedy reaches even deeper. Yaron and Sarah were not only emissaries of Israel; they were also followers of Jesus the Messiah.
According to All Israel News, family and friends described Yaron as “a devout Christian” and “a super solid believer.” His faith in Jesus and trust in God’s Word only deepened his passion for the people and land of Israel. His life testified to the truth that loving the Jewish people is not merely political—it is profoundly biblical.
In their deaths, we witness a powerful intersection between the Jewish and Christian communities—a moment that reveals just how deeply connected our stories truly are. These two Jewish believers in Jesus were killed for the “hope of Israel” (Acts 28:20), the very phrase the Apostle Paul used to describe the unbreakable link between his faith in the Messiah and God’s promises to His people.
