Ronn, Israel may have historical and emotional significance to a Christian, but to call it "holy" would be a misnomer. No one place is "holier" or more sanctified, than the next. Even a Church building. The Church is the sum of believers, not a place.
The Christian believes they have the omnipresent God inside. As such, wherever they are can be considered "holy". Any period of greater connection to that God is a result of an individuals mental shift, not God actually coming then going.
