Israel, The Church, Their Futures | Ep 14

As students of Scripture, one of the most important things we can do is pay attention to how God’s purposes unfold across time. In this episode of All Things for Good, Pastor Josh Strelecki encourages listeners to consider what the Bible reveals about God’s dealings with Israel and how that relates to what He’s doing today through the Church.

From the call of Abraham to the promises given to Israel, Scripture lays out a clear and unique plan for a chosen nation—called to serve, to lead, and to represent God among the nations. But when Israel stumbled, the question arises: Has God set His plan aside? Or is something new taking place?

Pastor Josh invites us to examine how certain truths—once hidden—are now revealed, and how understanding the difference between what was spoken by the prophets and what was later made known can help clarify apparent contradictions in the Bible. As the episode unfolds, we are challenged to recognize how God’s plan for Israel and His current work through the Church can be different in role, promises, and instructions, but ultimately united in purpose—centered in the person and work of Jesus Christ.

This episode is an invitation to think carefully, read closely, and appreciate the beauty of how God’s Word fits together—from Genesis to today.
