What if Christianity was never meant for you?
For twelve years, I defended the faith without hesitation. I believed the Bible was a universal message about heaven, hell, sin, and personal salvation. I was certain.
Until I started examining the historical record.
Faith to Truth: Deconstructing Christianity to Rediscover Israel challenges one of the most fundamental assumptions in modern theology: that the New Testament was written to all people, for all time. This second edition expands the evidence and presses the question further.
What if the New Testament was written specifically to first-century Israel?
What if “salvation” meant deliverance from covenant exile, not escape to heaven?
What if resurrection referred to the reunification of Israel, not individual bodily immortality?
What if the so-called “end times” already happened in the events leading to the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70?
Drawing from Jewish context, Second Temple literature, historical data, and the writings of Josephus, this book argues that the story Christians inherited may not be the story the original authors were telling.
This is not an attack on faith. It is an examination of audience, context, and covenant.
If the New Testament writers were addressing a specific people in a specific historical crisis, then centuries of doctrine may rest on a misplaced assumption.
The question is simple:
Was Christianity universal… or was it about Israel?
The answer changes everything.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Faith to Truth: Deconstructing Christianity to Rediscover Israel is not a call to abandon faith-it is an invitation to examine it.For centuries, the Bible has been read as a universal story about all humanity. But what if it was never written to everyone? What if its message, language, and promises were rooted in a specific people, a specific covenant, and a specific historical moment?In this thought-provoking and deeply personal work, David Glinka challenges traditional Christian assumptions by exploring the Bible through the lens of audience relevance, historical context, and covenantal language. From the identity of the "Gentiles" to the meaning of resurrection, salvation, and the so-called "end times," this book reexamines long-held beliefs and asks whether modern interpretations have drifted from the original intent.Blending theological analysis with personal narrative, Faith to Truth walks the reader through the unsettling-but ultimately liberating-process of deconstruction. It does not trade certainty for emptiness, but replaces inherited answers with honest questions, intellectual integrity, and a renewed sense of wonder.For those wrestling with doubt, questioning tradition, or seeking a deeper understanding of the Bible's origins, this book offers not a final destination-but a new way to see the map.This revised and expanded second edition includes refined arguments, additional insights, and enhanced clarity developed through continued research and reflection.
