Description

The relationship between Israel and the church continues to be a controversialtopic led by this question: Does the church replace, supersede, or fulfill thenation of Israel in God's plan, or will Israel be saved and restored with a uniqueidentity and role? In Has the Church Replaced Israel?, author Michael J. Vlach evaluates thedoctrine of replacement theology (also known as supersessionism) downthrough history but ultimately argues in favor of the nonsupersessionistposition. Thoroughly vetting the most important hermeneutical andtheological issues related to the Israel/church relationship, Vlach explains why, "there are compelling scriptural reasons in both testaments to believe in a future salvation and restoration of the nation Israel."
