Thank you. You finally admit that there is a physical, literal nation of Israel to which God made promises that He will keep and you admit that those promises made by God to Israel are valid, and true, and have not yet been fulfilled.

You admit that there is a nation of Israel which will come to faith in Jesus Christ, the true Israel with whom God made the New Covenant and you admit that it is that Israel, the physical descendants of Isaac, whom God calls the "children of promise" who will be reconciled to the Father through Jesus Christ and which be the nation that fulfills the New Covenant, not the Church. You admit that this nation, according to the very words of God, will have their sins taken away and be saved and redeemed.

Finally. Thank you.

Whoops...you almost snuck that past me... :-)

The church is under the new covenant and IS part of that covenant through Christ. Israel (physical Israelites and NOT necessarily a nation) have been blinded until the fullness of the gentiles has come in.

As Paul said:

Eph 2:11 Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh—who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands—
Eph 2:12 that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.
Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

Thank You!

I really appreciate you taking the time to try and educate our Brothers and Sisters from Scripture.
