September 19, 2026 | #2638 - Not So Fast! Does the Church Really Replace Israel? (Part 4 of 4)

Because the apostle Paul wrote, “There is neither Jew nor Greek” in Galatians 3:28, many people claim that Scripture ultimately renders Jewish identity obsolete today. But how can this be true when Paul immediately makes the same claim about men and women, whose distinct identities clearly still exist? The Bible is clear: Israel is not replaced. Instead, whether Jewish or Gentile, all are reconciled to Christ at the cross. What a great truth for us to remember when we consider God’s special purposes for Israel and His love for the world!
