For Such A Time As This
ICEJ Australia is excited to announce that, alongside other Christian Zionist organizations, we had the privilege of participating in a historic and significant event in Australia’s political landscape.
“Perhaps” said Mordecai to his cousin Hadassah, who was now Queen Esther of Persia, “you have come to this position for such a time as this.”
Not long before the 2025 Holiday of Purim was celebrated, in which the Book of Esther containing Mordecai’s words is read, those same words were echoed by Andrew Wallace MP in Canberra on 25th February, during the relaunch of the Australia-Israel Allies Caucus, of which he serves as Chair. Mr Wallace, who also serves as the Deputy Chair of Parliament’s powerful Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security, said, “Australia is facing an antisemitism crisis, and it is incumbent upon all Australians – and especially those elected to lead the country – that we stand up, speak up, and show up for Israel and the Jewish people.” He continued, “The world is watching – allies and competitors alike. We must have each other’s backs in the fight against antisemitism. The Australia-Israel Allies Caucus exists for such a time as this, by uniting political leaders in the cause of combatting antisemitism and to advance the Australia-Israel relationship.” His Excellency Amir Maimon Ambassador of the State of Israel to Australia, was also present and delivered the key note address.
ICEJ Australia Board Chairman Mark Mudri, who attended the launch and was part of the small group of volunteers integral to its success, reminds us that, “When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.” (Isaiah 59:19). He encouragingly reported that, “Whilst the nations rage, slander, vilify and condemn our beloved Israel, passionate representatives of many nations assemble to overflowing in Australia’s Federal Parliament to proclaim that the Holy City of Jerusalem and the nation of Israel, divinely placed in the middle of the nations, is cherished, honoured and loved.”
