Jesus through Jewish eyes
There seem to be two major positions on Biblical prophesy in the church, one which sees everything which the state of Israel does through rose tinted spectacles and the other which takes all the nice prophecies to the Jewish people as really just referring to the church. How should the church view the modern state of Israel and the Biblical prophecies to the Jews? How do we apply the politics of Jesus? The fullness of the Jewish people and the unity of the church both seem to be things we get before Jesus comes back, so how do we go for that in practice? How do we create a bigger space in our communities for the fulfilment of Rom 11 and Eph 4?
