Mystery of the Olive Tree The

The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob, the God who we serve, will always be the God of Israel. 'The question that most determines the future of the Church, and how it operates, will be determined by it's relationship with Israel.' Karl Barth. Between the 4th and 18th centuries, there was not as far as we know, a Messianic Jewish body on earth. Suddenly in the late 17th century, in a very sovereign and supernatural way, the Holy Spirit began to bring back the Messianic Jews. They re-surfaced from the dead! Today there are about 100,000 Messianic Jews living in the world and approximately 16,000 living in Israel, gathering in around 130 congregations.

This book is instructive, challenging, even disturbing as it explains why the Messianic Jews have a special place in our midst. We all need to read it. Charles Whitehead K.S.G.
