We attended the first session of the Israel Mandate conference last night with Dan Juster speaking. He did two sessions and we didn't get out until like 9:30...sesh, but it was a really good word from Mr. Juster.
One of the major things I came away with was a change in my view of world missions. It seems I had always heard missions and the salvation of Israel preached as two completely different topics, one being practical and the later being more of a 'theological' message. Yet, as Mr. Juster addressed both issues last night, it is quite clear that world missions and the salvation of Israel are inseparable. Preaching the gospel to every tribe, tongue, and nation is unto Israel accepting Jesus, and Israel will not fulfill its destiny without the saved and blossoming Gentile nations. They are intricately interwoven. Oh the glorious mystery of the Gospel!
