Boast Not Against the Branches

The Reformed Tradition and the Jews

Today, affection for the Jewish people based on Romans 11 is thought to be an error rooted in the Post-war Consensus or Dispensationalism. But in this book Doug Wilson has assembled quotes from countless Reformed teachers, many untethered from the 20th century and its Left Behind series, each writing about what they believe the Bible really teaches about Romans 11. We must reject the mistakes made in 20th century theology. But we must not throw out our heritage as we do so.

This survey of history and the scriptures changed my mind.

The Bible has a tendency to reorient my thinking, to see from God's perspective, and make me less of a fool.

I had believed that only a few individual Jews would be saved, and that a wholesale revival among the Jews was not God's plan. I was wrong. Now I know that God promises grace to the Jews, and his promises are certain.
