David Pawson is a remarkable Bible teacher who has held the line on Biblical inerrancy and a grammatical-historical interpretation of scripture (that is, literal, within the context of the author's intent).  One of the subjects about which he speaks most strongly is God's continuing plan for Israel.  The Church has not replaced Israel in the promises of the Old Testament; God would be a liar (and therefore not God) if He did not do for Abraham's descendents what He promised He would do.  However, Israel does not get those blessings apart from their Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth.

In this talk, Pawson lays some of the groundwork for his theology of Israel and shows how Greek philosophy (which is fundamentally alien to the Bible) has been imported into the core of the Church in Western Civilization.

David Pawson De-Greecing the Church
David Pawson is a British Bible teacher who has been teaching the Bible as the inerrant and infallible Word of God for decades. In this talk, he surveys how the Church in Western Civilization has been heavily influenced by Greek philosophy, resulting in significant differences in our attitudes and doctrinal emphases from what the Apostles (who were all Jewish) taught.

As Pawson himself says, this two hour seminar is an inadequate and even simplistic overview of a vast topic, but he raises crucial topics that Christians cannot afford to ignore. As the Apostle Paul wrote, we must not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds! (Romans 12:2)
