It means the remnant shall be saved.

OK, so when a non-dispensationalist makes that claim, saying the remnant of Israel is that part which identifies with Christ and His Church, the problem is what exactly?

You didn’t ping Gamey, and he’s the one who started the thread.

Oversight.

You haven’t read Ryrie have you?

I have a few of his books including Dispensationalism Today, I just do not recall that particular language and his argument for the distinction you claim he’s making.

The study bible on Romans 11:

"The olive tree is the place of privilege that was first occupied by the natural branches (the Jews). The wild branches are Gentiles who, because of the unbelief of Israel, now occupy the place of privilege. The root of the tree is the Abrahamic covenant that promised blessing to both Jew and Gentile through Christ."

Do you suggest that any biblical Christian would suggest that "On this rock I will build my Church" did not include the Jewish Apostles themselves?
