This will sound like political talk at first but it is a theology question.
Probably a simple one, but I am not trained enough to know the answer.
Tonight I was listening to an interview on a "˜Christian station "˜
http://www.ptcbglc.com/
(obsessed with teaching the Torah as much and as often as airtime allows) from this area and they had a guest who is a reporter stationed at the Whitehouse.
His slant is clear at his website:
http://www.watch.org/
This Mr. Koenig said a lot of things that were fairly stunning in terms of how bluntly and unabashedly said them. Like saying that Arafat died of AIDS.
But more troubling was his assessment of the problem with the Bush administration.
He said, "œthe problem is the majority of people advising or assisting the president is they are REPLACEMENT THEOLOGISTS." Then he went in to naming various Presbyterians such as Condoleeza Rice (and mentioning that her father and grandfather were Presbyterian ministers) This set the show´s host to saying"¦"say no more! We know just from that what we are dealing with. These are people who do not believe the covenant with Abraham was everlasting! "
My question is"¦is the term replacement theology the same thing as covenant theology?
