Oil in Scripture
Is it possible for the Bible to give clues as to where the next oil reserve is? Zion Oil and Gas, a Delaware corporation formed in 2000 apparently thinks so. Headed by their Founder and Chairman John Brown, a Christian Zionist and New Covenant believer, the company believes that verses in the Bible such as those found in some of the books in the Old Testament point to where a staggering 484 million barrels of oil await discovery. Brown believes that he received the calling to explore oil in Israel in order to give the Jewish people the aid necessary for the Restoration of the Land by “providing the oil and gas necessary to maintain their political and economic independence.”
In fact, one of the activities of Zion Oil and Gas is sponsoring Christians United for Israel’s (CUFI) ”Night to Honor Israel”. In a press release, the company says:
DALLAS–Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. (Amex: ZN) of Dallas, TX and Caesarea, Israel announced today that it will sponsor the Night to Honor Israel banquet at the Third Annual Washington-Israel Summit of Christians United for Israel (CUFI). The Summit will take place in Washington, D.C. during July 21-24 and the banquet on Tuesday evening, July 22. Pastor John Hagee, Senator Joseph Lieberman and Israel’s Ambassador to the U.S., Sallai Meridor, are scheduled to speak at the banquet. It is expected that John Brown, Zion’s Founder and Chairman, will be interviewed by Pastor John Hagee during the Summit and that the interview will be broadcast on the Daystar Television Network during the Night to Honor Israel. In addition, CUFI will broadcast a video about Zion at the banquet’s pre-event, and the banquet’s proceedings will be telecast by live-feed over the Daystar Television network.
John Brown, Zion’s Founder and Chairman, commented today, “Zion is proud to be a part of the CUFI Washington-Israel Summit and to support CUFI’s educational and public policy work in support of Israel.”
Zion Oil & Gas, a Delaware corporation, explores for oil and gas in Israel in areas located onshore between Tel-Aviv and Haifa. It currently holds two petroleum exploration licenses, the Joseph and Asher-Menashe Licenses, between Netanya on the south and Haifa on the north covering a total of approximately 162,000 acres.
