162: This is a MUST-READ
Dr. Michael Vlach just published one of the most helpful theological articles you will ever read. Link to Vlach's essay: https://www.michaeljvlach.com/blog/modern-israel-and-israel-in-the-bible-clarifying-the-relationship Sermon referenced: https://sermonarchive.realitycarpinteria.com/sermons/how-christians-should-view-israel The promotion of this article was not a coordinated effort with Dr. Peter Goeman with the Bible Sojourner podcast, who released a very similar episode to mine on April 10. The timing is merely incidental, as we are both Foundations Media members, promoting another Foundations Media member who has written something extraordinary. Goeman and Vlach are also friends and colleagues at Shepherds Theological Seminary in Cary, NC.
