If any of you are discussing Israel and end times issues with dispensational folks this may be beneficial.
I think it was presented in a loving way where it didn't frame the brethren who are dispensationalist as the enemy and it certainly was in no way
anti semite.
I appreciated that approach because those negative attitudes are the positions that non covenant theology types in this neck of the woods assume we have.
I have heard covenant theology mischaracterized many times in West Texas.
When I started attending this PCA church I had Christian brothers take me to coffee and express concern that I would be influenced by covenant theology to "turn against Israel." (refering to the physical country)
If you have time give this a listen. Our pastor is a young man who doesn't try to play it safe. He has been wonderfully fearless in his presentation of the Word.
