The gospel may reach all people within a generation.For the first time in history, the whole earth is watching God's purposes for Israel unfold.Most Christians read the Old Testament as a story about Israel and the New Testament as a radical shift from Israel’s story to the story of the nations. However, Israel and the nations are deeply connected in both the Old and New Testament. The New Testament is neither the beginning of God’s purposes for the nations nor the end of Israel’s story.
When we understand the overarching context of the Old Testament and Israel’s story, we find God has a single redemptive plan for Israel and the nations. The Great Commission was not a dramatic shift in God’s plan, nor was it a new idea. It is the means of fulfilling God’s promises to Israel and the nations.

How the Old Testament lays the foundation for the Great CommissionHow Israel and the Great Commission are deeply connectedHow Israel’s story continues in the New TestamentHow Paul understood God’s plan to save Israel and the nationsHow the Great Commission will be finished

good understanding for end times and Israel
Interesting to add discipling to evangelism as far as preparing people for end times.
God’s family plan to bring Jews and Gentiles together

After returning from a trip to Israel, I came back desiring to understand more of God's purposes for the nation of Israel and this book has helped me to do that. The Biblical and prophetic significance of Israel is so important from an eschatological point of view, and needs to be addressed more often in the church of this generation so we can be a part of God's purposes for the nations. This book has become my recommended book to anyone who returns from Israel with a burden for the nation and the Jewish people.
