I'm going to assume that your answer is "yes"...you believe that you are of the house of Israel to which the new covenant was promised:
I am assuming that you did not read the article in the link The Israel of God is not the nation of Israel..

I read the article...thanks.

Terry this is not a difficult question. I'm having a hard time figuring out why you aren't answering it.

Yes or no. Are you of the house of Israel referenced in both the old testament and new testament?

Of course you are unless you have not accepted the new covenant.

Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

No matter what you think I'm teaching about the law here (which both you and Kostas are grossly misunderstanding) does or does not God, in the bible, say that Israelites, both physical and spiritual, believers and unbelievers, covenant keepers and covenant breakers, are your fathers?

I think the answer is clearly and uneqivocally "Yes". Do you agree...yes or no?

Douglas, I may gorssly misunderstand the law, but I doubt that Paul did. But, let me ask you a simple question about the law: why is it that a man cannot die for another man's sins, yet an animal can?

Doug you seem to have a hard time understanding that All that are Israel are not israel..

The Israel of God is the CHURCH

You keep wanting to back to what was an imperfect shadow to justify yourself.

Jews that are outside of the church are not the Israel of God.
