“THE CHURCH AS TRUE ISRAEL The church falls in continuity with the people of God throughout the history of redemption. We are not an aberration or a parenthesis in God’s program. The story of the people of God in the Old Testament is our story. Abraham is our father. Indeed, he is a closer father than our biological father (see Mark 3:34)! When we read the Old Testament we should do so not as observers but as participants. One of the hallmarks of dispensationalism is to drive a wedge between Israel and the church. But such a move runs counter to so much of what we discover in the New Testament. There is one people of God spanning both Testaments. As we remind ourselves of who we are in Christ, we must do so in light of what the Bible says in the Old Testament as well as the New.”
