Israel has been extremely successful into duping Christians into conflating the political state of Israel with biblical Israel. They are not the same thing.
Sure they are. The Old Testament plainly shows over and over how disobedient and disregarding the Israelites were to the LORD. Just because Israel is not walking in strict obedience to the LORD, it does not make them any less His people. He did not make Abraham’s descendants to be His people because they were good; He wanted to have a people for Himself, and He found in Abraham a faithful servant. He chose them because of Abraham’s faithfulness. You think He didn’t know how often they would mess up? He made a covenant with Abraham, and God keeps His covenants. How blessed we Christians are that He has allowed us to be grafted into that covenant relationship!
You’re proving my point perfectly.
