Since the church's history is so widely discussed, being aware of its major events is essential. Evil forces are still aiming to remove Israel from the map of the globe as God's people and chosen nation. The Bible itself provides the justifications for this tenacity, so they are easily found. The main issue with the conflicts we are seeing can be better understood with the aid of this book. When Jesus declared, "I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," he was forewarning the people of all his impending attacks. The author challenges us to learn God's secret truths about who we are as His people to completely comprehend its implications. Understanding Israel helps a Christian to find and understand their own identity. What a wonderful and luminous work that will surely quench the thirst of many.
