Church and Israel after Christendom

More about the book

The book explores the impact of two major twentieth-century events on the Church: the decline of Christendom and the Holocaust. It challenges Christians to reassess their doctrines, particularly the belief that the Church has replaced Israel in God's plan. Scott Bader-Saye proposes that a renewed understanding of Israel, anchored in the doctrine of election, can help shape a post-Christendom Church. He advocates for looking to Abraham rather than Aristotle to create an ecclesiology that embodies covenant freedom and messianic peace, moving beyond modernity's violence.
