AUTHOR’S PREFACE

The contents of this little article are based upon messages which I preached across Northern Ireland, in Edinburgh and in the United States in the early 1990's, in which l sought to present a balance between the role of the Israel nation, the Bride of Christ, and the Church, which is His Body. The message reached far beyond the gatherings at which I spoke, by means both of audio and video tapes. As a result I received many requests to put the message into booklet form, which I at last did in April 1992. I have now been persuaded to present an "on-line" version of the article on the Open-Bible Ministries' website, thus making it available to the wider Christian community and trust that it will prove to be a source of instruction and blessing to many.
