wrong, the Catholic Church has always taught the Church is spiritual Israel and if a Jew wishes to be saved they must do what a Gentile must do to be saved, they must profess the Catholic Faith and they must be baptized into Christ for the forgiveness of their sins and receiving the Holy Spirit. same as Peter preached in Acts 2. the Catholic Church also teaches in Christ, there is neither Jew nor Greek, all are one in Christ.

That is why Amillennialism fails. Nobody denies that IN THIS CHURCH AGE anyone who would be saved must receive Jesus Christ as Savior and they become a part of spiritual Israel, grafted into the branch of Jesus Christ and be part of the Bride of Christ. But the PHYSICAL nation of Israel (the unfaithful wife of Jehovah) who at this time has been blinded "until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled", will return to Almighty God in repentance and will be grafted BACK into the branch at the end of the Tribulation. It is then that God will fulfill His promises to them of a 1000 year kingdom on earth where Christ, upon the throne of David in Jerusalem, will rule the nations with a rod of iron.

upon the throne of David in Jerusalem, will rule the nations with a rod of iron

please read Acts 2:29-36, Jesus Christ is sitting on David’s throne today and ruling from Jerusalem.

pay special attention to “God has made Him both LORD and Christ”.

the physical nation of Israel had the kingdom taken from them in Matthew 21:43. there is no future kingdom for physical Israel.

but I am glad you do admit there is a spiritual Israel, I take good news where I can find it.
