What Are We to Make of IsraelSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the concept of the New Covenant in relation to the future of Israel. He argues that the new covenant, which Jesus made with his disciples and the church, does not support the idea of two separate new covenants. Gregg also explores the interpretation of Old Testament prophecies and suggests that they should not be understood in a literal and natural sense. Instead, he proposes a symbolic interpretation, highlighting the regeneration and spiritual rebirth in the present age.
