Do most church members see a connection between Israel and the Bible?

Les explains that throughout about 90% of Christendom, including Roman Catholics as well as Protestants, the vast majority is of the opinion that God is all through with the nation of Israel. They believe God has nothing more to do with the Jew because they rejected and crucified their Messiah. Consequently, most church members today see no connection between the little nation of Israel—sitting like a little hornet's nest ready to be knocked down—and the Bible. Many politicians and religious leaders similarly say there is no connection to the Jew or the Bible. But Les emphasizes that they are in every way connected to this book, and that little nation of Israel is still God's covenant people, though He has set them aside for now.
