I beleive God has a special place in his heart for Israel and that he still remembers his covenant with them. I also believe that we are God's people under a new covenant. We have been grafted into the vine under that covenant and we have been given the right to be called children of God. |

No, I do not believe in replacement theology. I pulled up two other blogs with scripture references. |

#1 Gen. 22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
In the above Scripture we see that Abraham has two seeds: "they seed as the stars of heaven and they seed as the sand of the sea." He has a heavenly seed and a earthly seed. |

#2 The Church is Abraham's heavenly seed and Israel is his earthly seed. The Church's inheritance in in the heavenlies while Israel's inheritance is on earth. The Church will be in Heaven with Christ during the Millenium and Israel will be on earth. |

Israel & the Jews will always be God's people, as well as Christians. Christians are commanded to bless Israel & the Jews. If you bless God will bless, if you curse God will curse. |

No. God has laid HIS Bride to the side for a moment and is seeking a Bride for His SON. A good peice of scripture to help you with this is Romans 11. God Bless. |

I think we need to look at what the church is? it is those that believe in Jesus as the Messiah promised to Israel. the CHurch is Israel (the believing portion) and the Church that is gentile is grafted into israel through Christ. there is still an israel, the church is part of it we are always part of the history of israel (spiritually not racially). the church didn't replace Israel, but it fullfills Israel. |

We cannot. Reasoning being, God made a covenant with them before us and He cannot/will not nulify it. |
