Putting the Jewish People Back at the Center of God's Plan Christian theology about Israel has shifted more in the last century than in the previous eighteen combined. Dispensationalism, the Holocaust, and the rise of the modern State of Israel have ignited new theological frameworks that affirm God's ongoing covenant with the Jewish people.

Putting the Jewish People Back at the Center of God's Plan Christian theology about Israel has shifted more in the last century than in the previous eighteen combined. Dispensationalism, the Holocaust, and the rise of the modern State of Israel have ignited new theological frameworks that affirm God's ongoing covenant with the Jewish people. But not everyone agrees. A new generation of Neo-Calvinist voices-John Piper, Tim Keller, and others-are reviving the old Reformed claim: that Israel has no remaining role in God's plan, and that all covenantal promises now belong to the Christian church alone. In this theology, Israel is reduced to a secular state with no prophetic relevance-and sometimes even cast as a moral liability. Israel Matters offers a direct response. Building on the foundation laid in Yeshua Matters, this book explores how a faith centered on Rabbi Yeshua of Nazareth-Israel's King and Messiah-demands a reevaluation of the church's relationship to the Jewish people. What if the promises to Israel still stand? What if God's plan still runs through the children of Jacob? This book will help readers: * Reexamine Christian assumptions about Israel's role in prophecy * Understand how Reformed theology can undermine biblical covenants * Reclaim a pro-Israel theology rooted in the teachings of Jesus and the apostles * Rediscover the Jewishness of the Gospel and its implications for the church If Jesus is Israel's Messiah, then Israel still matters.
