Dear Dan;

I mean no condemnation for any man. I believe that we as Gentiles are indeed adopted into the family of God. However Israel has not been adopted as we have but are God's first born.

Exodus 4:22 Then you shall say to Pharaoh, "Thus says the LORD, Israel is My son, My firstborn.

I also believe that there will be a time when this world will pass away and their will be a new heaven and earth which God calls the New Jerusalem.

Clearly IMHO God is not finished with the nation of Israel. He called them back to the land on the exact day that he promised in Ezekiel. He restored Jerusalem on the exact day as well. See explaination here. corp.direct.ca

Let us proceed slowly and reason together point by point. We may have to agree to disagree. I trust we can do so in love. I as a Gentile feel that God has a special fondness in his heart for the Jewish remnant that never left him. He has made the nation Israel promises which are not dependant on their behavior but on his Grace. He has made promises to us in the same way, promises we can not and have not earned. The return of Israel to the land is proof to me of these promises and God's faithfulness.

I do not see these different Covenants as dispensations which cancel each other out. This seems too easy and neat to me. I see them more as telescoping, one leading and becoming part of the other.

I will stop for now but look forward to your input. Your voice here is one of love and I return that love to you. Let us try to make and respond to one point at a time. Take the lead my brother and we will each learn from one another.

In Yeshua's love for you - DLL
