God's glory has departed from the Jewish nation and now rests on a despised and foolish nation,as Moses prophesied would happen if the Jews forsook Him, and we are proud to be fools for Christ and for the Father. It was done to provoke jealousy, so that the nation of Israel would repent and turn again and worship Hashem as they once did. They go thru all the motions, but He is still far from them and it will be so until the time of the Gentiles is ended. In the meantime, salvation is certainly open to individuals of the Jewish faith, in which I count myself one. Why in the world anyone would desert Christ and return to the old covenant of the Law, which was annulled, is beyond me.

Me too Jessie .

Romans 11:24 - 25 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree? For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

He has always had a remnent to be His witness here Jesse

If I may ask, is your mother Jewish?

How can an "everlasting covenant" be annulled? Is God a liar?

Oh, did you see Mom's citation from Proverbs?

If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,
even his prayer is an abomination. (Proverbs 28:9)
