True Israel has always been about faith, not DNA. God did lie about his promises to “that nation”, the key is properly understanding who that nation is.

Matthew 21:43-46

Therefore i tell you, the kningdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a nation producing the fruits of it. When the chief priests and Pharisees heard his parable , they percieved he was talking about them. But when they tried to arrest , they feared the multitudes , because they held him to be a prophet.

Faith my friend, not DNA.

"And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham."

And so it was!

"And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise" Gal 3:29

The Kingdom of God is the spiritual kingdom...And yes it was taken from Israel...The eyes of the Jews had been blinded as to not see the spiritual kingdom...

The physical Kingdom however is an entirely different story...It was promised to the Jews and the promise will never be revoked...The land belongs to the real Israel, not your Catholic church...

If the promised land belonged to your religion, you can bet your pope's red shoes that he'd have his throne in Jerusalem instead if Italy...

If you believed the scriptures instead of trying to 'interpret' them into saying things they don't say, you wouldn't be so lost when it comes to the Kingdoms...

The Jews were promised the land...They now have (some of) the land and they will keep it...And not an ounce of your false, private interpretation will change any of it...
