GOD'S COVENANT PEOPLE:
Yesterday, Today & Forever

Introduction

The Israelites, as God's chosen people, have always been in the forefront of everything God has planned since the time Abraham was called to be a father of many nations. As a result, Israel has always been center stage when it came to world events. This was not only true in the past, but it remains true today.

God's eternal plan for Israel comes as no surprise to most Christians; as a matter of fact, many of them have been preaching this for decades. However, there remains a question as to whether the majority of Christendom has correctly identified God's covenant people. If Israel has been mis-identified, there is no doubt that major errors in doctrinal interpretation and application of Biblical prophecy have been made. The resulting confusion from this mis-identification would be quite significant.

Many of our people are angry, while others are bewildered; science and technology advance, but confusion and despair dull the heart of our nation. Turmoil reigns in our land as never before. Nonetheless, the Prophet Daniel foretold of a time when "many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase." (Daniel 12:4*) It is my conviction that we live in such a time, and that as this age advances, we will see this turmoil disappear. As knowledge is acquired and more truth is revealed, lines will be drawn more definitively, and our course of action will become clear. One truth that is opening the eyes of the people of this and other Christian nations is the discovery of the true sons of Israel. For centuries the identity of the Israelites has been "lost." However, truth-seekers are uncovering the clues to their whereabouts and dispelling the confusion that results from mis-identifying modern-day Israel.

My purpose in writing this book is to be a voice that will help to dissipate that confusion and to instill within our people the same purpose and resolve we once had at earlier times in our history.

From the days when the early pioneers of true Christianity in America were bold enough to stand upon the Word of God and declare: "Where the Scriptures speak, we speak, and where the Scriptures are silent, we are silent," there have been and there are those chosen few who dare to do the same. These are the people who are striving to keep themselves pure and uncorrupted by the false religious standards of the day, people who want God's way or no way! Far too often we put on our pious robes and think to ourselves that we have arrived at perfect truth, and that no one else has anything to add to it. As a result, we slam the door to further "revelation" from God. The Apostle Paul prudently reminds us that: "...knowledge makes arrogant.... If anyone supposes that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know." (I Corinthians 8:1-2)

With this in mind, the purpose of this book is fivefold:

  1. This book will prove that God continues to have a plan for physical Israelites under the New Covenant.

  2. This book will correct the commonly taught fallacy of a "Spiritual Israel."

  3. This book will prove who Israel is not, thus exposing the imposters.

  4. This book will prove who Israel is from the Scriptures, archaeology and history, thus revealing the true identity of Israel today.

  5. This book will disclose why this revelation is of such significance.

*Bible quotations are taken from the New American Standard Version unless otherwise noted.

Please note: This book is being placed online as we have the time. The format follows the actual book as it was scanned in and coded. The footnotes are placed at the bottom of each page that they were on in the chapters and the appendix will be linked in the final stages of posting.
