Reseña del libro "Who Is Israel? (en Inglés)"
Who is Israel?The Church, Not the StateA bold, biblical, and historic manifesto that reclaims the Church's true identity.For two thousand years, the Christian Church has confessed one unbreakable truth: the True Israel is the universal body of believers in Jesus Christ-Jew and Gentile united by faith, not ethnicity or geography. From the prophets to Paul, from Augustine to Calvin, the covenant people of God have always been defined by the promise fulfilled in the Messiah.Yet in the 19th century, a novel theology emerged that shattered this consensus. Dispensationalism-pioneered by John Nelson Darby and popularized by the Scofield Bible-split God's people in two: a future for national Israel and a mere parenthesis for the Church. This seismic shift didn't just rewrite eschatology; it reshaped evangelical identity, politics, and mission. Today, Christian Zionism treats a modern secular state as the centerpiece of God's plan, funneling billions in U.S. aid while sidelining justice, Palestinian Christians, and the Church's global calling.In this groundbreaking work, Virgil A. Walker issues a prophetic wake-up call: Trace Israel's identity from the Merneptah Stele to the Mount of OlivesDiscover how Christ fulfills-not replaces-the covenants of Abraham, Moses, and DavidFollow the unbroken testimony of the early fathers, medieval scholastics, and ReformersExpose dispensationalism as a 19th-century innovation that robs believers of their birthrightReclaim the Church as the True Israel-a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a light to the worldWith scholarly depth, Who is Israel? is more than a book-it's a battle cry.It's time to reject theological dualism, political idolatry, and end-times escapism.It's time to live as the covenant people God always intended.
