The United States is not in the heritage of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

That's what you believe, and the statement speaks volumes.

But, likewise it is very disingenuous to believe that view and not admit it.

"That view" - British Israelitism - is the pit you are trying to push me (and others) into, but it's not what I posted. Tribes assimilated among the nations would have ended up in a lot of places, Britain included. I might as well demand that because you have the belief in the trinity in common with the RCC, you should just admit that your belief system is Catholic. Not to do so would be disingenuous. But that would be absurd.

When the Church is removed...

Removed? It's already far gone.

Not if your view follows the essential tenet of British-Israelism, that the 'lost tribes' are now Gentile nations.

You are arguing about particulars of that view, not the essential issue which is that Israelites are not Jews and they are now someone else.

And you consider the United States one of those nations.

No, it is still here, it is just apostate, just as predicted it would become (Rev.4)
