One New Man
The One New Man podcast is a wide-ranging conversation about Israel, the Jewish people, the Church, and our cultural moment concerning these topics. It is an ongoing conversation between a Messianic Jew, John Myers and a Gentile Christian, Christopher Kuehl. John is the founder of The Israel Story, and an early planter of a Messianic synagogue in Jerusalem, Israel. Chris is the founder of Present Witness. Together, they form the One New Man. You can expect conversations around Christian Zionism, biblical covenants, replacement theology, dispensationalism, covenant theology, church history, difficult verses related to these issues, election, salvation, the Israel / Palestinian conflict, and many other issues. We will also be interacting with arguments and positions all the way back from the church fathers to more modern thinkers like NT Wright and Karl Barth.

The Brutal Impact of Replacement Theology on Israel and the World
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This isn't a subject best left to theologians in seminaries...this is something that impacts how everyday Christians see the world around them - specifically the Jews and Israel - and how they obey and follow God.
In this episode, we'll talk about Replacement Theology - what it is, where it came from, who believes it, and why i don't think it's a tenable position to hold in light of the world around us today.
We'll use Chris' new book, Is God A Zionist to help guide our discussion (make sure you pick up a copy at the links below!), and get into just how big of an impact this has had on the world and Jews in particular, and why we have to make sure we do NOT hold on to this mistaken theology.
