For The Sake Of Zion

For the Sake of Zion is a wonderful road map to one of the great journeys of human history the return of the Jewish people to Israel. Dr. Tuvia Book combines the head of a knowledgeable expert with the heart of a passionate educator to produce a volume rich in facts, ideas, and creative pedagogy.

For Zion's sake, will I not hold my peace and for Jerusalem's sake, I will not rest until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp, that burneth. Isaiah 62:1 Praise God. If we are so near to that coming of the Lord, the most obvious thing to do is to go through the gates, to commit oneself, to start this preparing of the way for the other people, to cast up the highway to gather out the stones. God help us. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty. Thou shalt see a land of far distances.

By locating Christian Zionism firmly within the Evangelical tradition, Paul Wilkinson takes issue with those who have portrayed it as a "totally unbiblical menace" and as the "roadmap to Armageddon." Charting in detail its origins and historical development, he argues that Christian Zionism lays the biblical foundation for Israel's restoration and the return of Christ. No one has contributed more to this cause than its leading architect and patron, John Nelson Darby, an "uncompromising champion for Christ's glory and God's truth." This groundbreaking book challenges decades of misrepresentation and scholarship, exploding the myth that Darby stole the doctrine of the pre-tribulation Rapture from his contemporaries. By revealing the man and his message, Paul Wilkinson vindicates Darby and spotlights the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ as the centerpiece of his theology.
