On this bonus episode of What Christians Believe, host Derek Rishmawy and Kevin DeYoung look at how Covenant Theology shapes our understanding of the people of God, and how it differs from dispensationalism’s sharp line between Israel and the church. Rishmawy and DeYoung trace the biblical images of the olive tree, the temple and the “Israel of God” to show the church as Israel’s continuation and expansion in Christ rather than its replacement, and they consider what this means for Christians thinking about the modern Middle East.
