About this resource
And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. (Galatians 6:16) The identity of the Israel of God has long been a matter of contentious discussion among students of the Word. From a literalist interpretation to the most wild-eyed spiritualization, interpreters have wrestled with the identity of this important group. In this small booklet, Pastor Drew Elrod analyzes the phrase in its Biblical context, allows other Scripture to shed light on this Scripture, and comes up with the most reasonable identification of the Israel of God .
Drew Elrod is the pastor of Salem Baptist Church in Calhoun, Georgia. He is a public education teacher and coach. Pastor Elrod resides in Rydal, Georgia with his wife Samantha and their two boys Landry and Lawton.
