One more point and y'all can start boiling the oil to dunk me in...

Have fun...

"The Church" did not REPLACE Israel. The Church is an extension of Israel. We gentiles are grafted in.

It's interesting that Paul uses the olive tree as the metaphor for the gentiles being grafted into Israel, because when something is grafted into an olive tree, that something becomes an olive tree. The olive tree's life takes over that piece that was grafted in to it. The graft doesn't retain its own structure. It assumes that of the tree that now gives it life.

I posted this idea of us grafted in the vine earlier... my Dad always love to teach this ..

I just feel there are some things he's promised to Israel through the prophets that are yet unfulfilled ...

Who are Abraham's seed now?If favor is given by God,to someone because of their race,then God is a respector of persons.

I'm not going to discuss preterism tonight unless you can prove without a shadow of doubt that Jesus touched down on Mt. Olive in 70 A.D

Just take out a pen and cross out where it reads "...neither Jew or Greek.."

What does this mean maybe I'm missing something.
For the promise that he should be the heir of the world ,was not to Abraham ,or to his seed,through the law,but the righteousness by faith.ROM.4:13 Who now is the seed of Christ?
