Thus Christians should have no special care for Israel then, right?
Correct. I see dogma like Replacement Theology or Christian Zionism as useless arguments meant to complicate Christian Unity.
Are you a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ? Do you follow his commandments?
That’s all you need to do.
God’s people are those who are in Christ. Jews & Gentiles outside of Christ are blind & lost.
"For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two (Jew & Gentile in Christ), thus making peace, and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity." - Peg 3:14-16

so the old testament means nothing? that God chose a people, the Jews and said all kinds of things at various times about how they were His chosen people with plans and purposes for them?
sure in the new testament He made a way to graft us into relationship with Him, but it does not mean His chosen group of people, the Jews, do not play a part in HIS plan.
it’s in the book, His words. He has a plan for Jewish people, and a plan for non Jews who believe in Jesus, and a plan for those who choose not to believe at all.
