Hath God cast away his people?
God forbid.
Blindness in part is happened to Israel,
until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Replacement theology is the view that the church has replaced Israel in the promises, and that the promises to the fathers are now only the church’s. Scripture asks the question and answers it. Hath God cast away His people? God forbid. Blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. And so all Israel shall be saved. The gifts and calling of God are without repentance. The church is not Israel. The church is the body of Christ, Jew and Gentile, one in Him. The promises to the fathers are not cancelled. They are not all fulfilled. God has not cast away His people.
