God’s Heart for Israel (and Us)

We read God’s promises to Israel in the Old Testament, where it is referred to as “the apple of His eye, but is God done with Israel since they rejected their Messiah? Are we, as Christians, supposed to stand for the nation of Israel today? Has the Church now replaced Israel, so that God’s promises and covenants given in the OT no longer apply to Israel? What is Israel’s global importance? Is global anti-Semitism on the rise? What will be Israel's ultimate future? According to an article in the Jerusalem Post of June 17, 2011, Israel is at a "do-or-die moment." "As was the case in May 1967, when the combined Arab armies gathered with the express purpose of wiping the Jewish state off the map – today again, Israel is alone in its hour of greatest peril." John Weldon is able to answer these questions and address the important issues of our day because of the extensive research he has done on Middle East and America. He shares what he has learned in this deeply thought-provoking book.
