Wow. Over 2 years have elapsed and you're still saying the church is spiritual Israel?

You never explained this one to me Sidney:

We were talking about Romans 11 here

Hi Sidney. I think you're still missing the point of the verse. National Israel (Paul's blood kin) rejected Christ. Of this fact, I think we both agree. The reason they rejected Him is where we tend to disagree. I believe they have rejected Christ because God put a veil over them. Eyes that couldn't see Him and ears that couldn't hear Him. For a purpose. Salvation of the nations. Emile continually attacks without taking God's plan into account. Christ admonished men to "be like your Father in heaven and love your enemies".

I think Emile conveniently ignores both God's blinding of Israel and Christ's teaching of love.

Who are the true Hebrews today?

Edit 6-20-2007 as pertaining to verse 25:
I don't know, but God does. They can't be believers(ie the body of Christ) because the verse makes no sense to say "as soon as all the gentile believers have all believed, then God will lift the veil of the believers and they will also believe". Mass confusion.

Have a good weekend!
