There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
The idea that Israel has any relevance to God's plan what invented by the heretic Scofield just one hundred years ago. The Mormon and JW religions are more ancient and more Biblical than this doctrine.
Heck, John Hopkins did a DNA test on the people of Israel and virtually nobody is even related to the ancient Hebrews.
The John Hopkins study showed that the Jews in Yemen have the greatest relationship to the ancient Jews. They have about 10% Biblical Hebrew blood. I wouldnt be surprised that the Palestinians have a few drops of Hebrew blood in them. Certainly more than their Caucasian neighbors.
Yeman makes sense, it's far enough away. I tend to think that the majority of those ancient Hebrews actually living in Israel at that time either perished at 70AD at the siege of Jerusalem or subsequent battles OR they took heed of Christ prophesies & fled the area as he advised. Which would have saved their life & their bloodline but
I would bet that anyone who fled because of Christ's warnings would have taken other parts of Christ's testimony with more credence, after the not only witnessed all that came to pass as he predicted but THAT'S HOW MANAGED TO AVOID IT! What I am saying is that, I bet that those bloodlines are in the Christians that were in the area at the time. Some are still there & many probably moved on to Europe maybe from the crusades & various marriages & etc that would have resulted from that, that, of course no history book could ever trace but it's not rare that men at war fall in love with native women.
I also know that, according to one of those online companies that check the genetic origins according to their DNA. I know of Individuals who are descended from Christians in countries bordering Israel, have a fair amount of south western European blood (like Greece or Italy) & even smaller but significant percentage of Jewish DNA (like 10% or so). Which adds credence to my theory. SW Europe from the crusades, Jewish DNA from their ancient Hebrew ancestors.
This is my understanding: After the 70 AD dispersion many of the poorer "Jews" remained in Jerusalem and Judea. Other ethnic groups arrived and intermingled with these original "Jews". Islam forced many of the original Jews to convert to Islam. So it's my understanding that many of today's Muslims have "Jewish" blood in their veins.
Amen - great summary! It hurts me that sooo many Christians are taken in by all the dispensational lies - many of which originated with the publication of the Scofield Reference Bible. Who funded the publication and distribution of the Scofield Bible?
It's called fulfillment theology friend. No one has replaced anyone! The "church" started as all "Jews" on the day of Pentecost. Then Samaritans were added and finally gentiles. Read/study Romans 11 - The Olive Tree. The unbelieving Jews were broken off and cast aside. the believing Gentiles were grafted in "among them (the believing Jews)". The unbelieving Jews can be grafted back in when/if they believe. "Grafted in among them" - it doesn't say the Gentiles replaced the Jews but that they were grafted in.....
Temporary graft. Replacement theology is heresy.

Would you know who is related to the ancient Hebrews?
