Israel: Covenant & Kingdom (Willem J J Glashouwer) PAPERBACK

In 1948 the State of Israel was born. For over a century before this world-changing event the nations could see a miracle happen: the return of the Jewish people to the Promised Land of Israel. Age-old Biblical prophecies were and are being fulfilled before our very eyes. For centuries Christianity had been teaching that God was finished with the Jews and the Church had replaced the Jewish people as the new chosen people of God, the new Israel.

This theological concept was challenged by the actual return of the Jewish people to their land. Suddenly many Christians started to realise that God was being faithful to all the promises He gave to Israel. And to all the Covenants He made with them. Where will this process lead to? What will be next on God's agenda?How do the Covenant's made with Israel relate to the Biblical concept of the Kingdom of God? These and other questions will be answered in this thought-provoking book. It is the author's wish that the Lord will use it to bless the Church, comfort Israel and warn the nations. Because the more we realise we are living in the final stages of this part of world history, the more we will be obedient to the Biblical mandate to prepare for the coming of the king and of his Kingdom.

Rev Willem J.J Glashouwer is President of Christians for Israel International.
