The Israel of God: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

Who and what is the "Israel of God"? Cutting through the confusion that abounds today, noted theologian and Bible scholar O. Palmer Robertson develops a biblical theology of Israel's land, people, worship, and lifestyle. Arguing against replacement theology -- the view that the church replaces Israel -- he shows that the church is rather an expansion of Israel. His book is essential reading for those who want to better understand the relation of the Old and New Testaments and respond wisely to political policies, popular Christian teaching, and contemporary events.
