The "Jews" had already been scattered prior to 70AD. The 2nd Temple was destroyed in 70AD. The 1st Temple had already been destroyed by the Babylonians and the "Jews" were scattered. Paul mentions the elect and the remnant. The remnant of the Jews were gathered in Jerusalem on the Day of Pentecost. They repented and confessed that Jesus was the Messiah. The process continues to this day.
The Jews were only in Babylon. The Israelites were in Assyria until Babylon conquered Assyria and then they were taken into Babylon as slaves. They were NOT in ALL NATIONS.
What you believe is dispensationalism - popularized by the Scofield Reference Bible and John Nelson Darby and the Plymouth Brethren.
What I believe is what the Bible teaches and the Bible teaches the Jews were scattered into all nations---70AD---and they will be regathered into the land----Ezek 36-37 in the end times. Russia and Iran with a confederacy of other nations--all Muslim--will come against Israel--Zach 12-14--and God will intervene to save them from total destruction. Ezek 38-39. Dispensationalism is what the Bible teaches from the OT to the NT.
You are correct in being ONE Church---Jew and Gentile-- but that does not negate the promises God made to Abraham, Issac and Jacob.
The promises made to Abraham, Issac and Jacob? Sure the promises are there - but under the new and better covenant who inherits the promises? Galatians says it's those that are "in Christ". Those in Christ are the "Abraham's seed" - both Jew and Gentile. Studying the covenants are the key to understanding the promises.
Galatians 3:26-49 - "For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
Dispensationalism teaches that Israel never possessed the land. But God kept his promises and gave them the land:
Joshua 23: 43-45 - "So the Lord gave to Israel all the land of which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they took possession of it and dwelt in it. The Lord gave them rest all around, according to all that He had sworn to their fathers. And not a man of all their enemies stood against them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hand. Not a word failed of any good thing which the Lord had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass."
Dispensationalism teaches that Israel never possessed the land. But God kept his promises and gave them the land:
Not really. God gave them the land from the great river in Egypt to the Euphrates. The never possessed ALL the land but they did take possession under Joshua. They were driven from the land because of disobedience---dispensed elsewhere--until God brought them back into the land in 1948.
You believe what the Roman Catholic Church teaches---the Church replaced Israel and all the promises made to Israel go to the Church. Martin Luther even said you could kill all the Jews because God is through with them!
Anyway, you believe what ever you want. we will see in the near future everything the Bible predicts. Peace!
"Not really"? God gave them "all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers". Does "all the land" mean "all the land"? That's what it says.
Joshua 21:43 - **"And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein." **
Was Israel obedient to Jehovah? Nope! Did they keep the covenant? What did God promise to do if they were disobedient? Deu chapter 28 says they were not!
God didn't bring them back to the land in 1948 - the Rothschild's did! And who is the "them"? Are they part of Israel? Are they "in Christ"?
Galatians 3:26-29: " For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Paul (a Jew, an Israelite of the Tribe of Benjamin) defined what it means to be part of Abraham's seed. And it doesn't matter whether you are a "Jew" or "gentile" In fact Paul tells us that under the New Covenant there is neither "Jew" nor "gentile". You either believe Paul or you believe dispensational teaching introduced to America by the Scofield Reference Bible.
I don't believe "the Church replaced Israel" I believe the Church is Israel! The Church is the continuation of Old Testament Israel under a new covenant - the covenant of Jesus Christ. Listen to Paul in Galatians 6:16: "And those who will walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and **upon the Israel of God" ** Who is the "Israel of God"? It's the New Testament Church friend both Jew and Gentile. This isn't "replacement theology" it's fulfillment theology". The promises that God made to Israel were kept under the New Covenant.
The "Church" started as a 100% Jewish institution. Later Samaritans were added and finally the Gentiles. The Church is the body of Christ! The Church is the New Jerusalem! Jesus only has one bride, one church! There is only one baptism - not one for the Jew and another for the Gentile.
