• How should we interpret the terms 'Israel', 'the Church' and 'God's people'?

• How should we evaluate the contemporary emergence of the Jewish Messianic movement?
• How should the "Jewish roots" of Christianity translate into contemporary theological models?
• How and why should Christians share the gospel with Jewish people?
