Arsonists burst into a Jerusalem church and set the building on fire, church officials said Wednesday, raising suspicions that Jewish extremists were behind the attack.
Members of the four denominations who use it today include foreign workers, Sudanese refugees who came to Israel through from Egypt and two congregations of highly controversial "Jews for Jesus" who believe that Jesus Christ was the Jewish Messiah.
"We all still need to learn the lessons of tolerance and to accept the different among us," said Charles Kopp, an American who is the pastor of the church. He said Jewish extremists may have set fire to the building.
