This teaching article will consider how a covenantal and preterist interpretation (hermeneutic) of the New Testament (NT) and its prophetic content relate to how the people of God either recognize or resist their day of visitation.

How to Live Long & Prosper in the Land: Paul’s Gospel And Civilisational Renewal
