TALLESTSKIL You’re contradicting yourself and Paul at the same time. lol
You say a Jew who accepts the Messiah stops being a Jew and becomes something else. But the apostle Paul the Apostle literally identifies himself as both after believing in Yeshua. How do you square that?
Look in Romans 11:1 (Amplified Bible)
“I say then, has God rejected and disowned His people? Certainly not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.”
Look at The Greek word he uses is Ἰσραηλίτης (Israēlitēs). That means a member of Israel. Paul did not say “I used to be an Israelite.” He says I am. Big difference dude.
And your claim that “the ancient Hebrews all became Christians centuries ago and now only Jews are left” is something the Scriptures never say. LOL.
Paul says the opposite in the same chapter.
Look AGAIN in Romans 11:28–29 (Amplified Bible)
“From the standpoint of the gospel they are enemies for your sake; but from the standpoint of God’s choice they are still beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.”
The Greek word for irrevocable is ἀμεταμέλητα (ametamelēta), meaning not withdrawn, not taken back. Look it up!!
So no, Israel did not disappear and get replaced. Paul explicitly says God has not rejected His people. I see a duh coming on.
And you brushed off the warning about boasting against the natural branches, but that warning was written to Gentiles exactly for this kind of arrogance. Go back and read it.
Romans 11:17–18 (Amplified Bible)
“But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive [shoot], were grafted in among them… do not boast against the branches… it is not you who supports the root, but the root that supports you.”
The Greek word for root is ῥίζα (rhiza), the source or foundation.
So the picture Paul gives is clear. Gentiles are grafted in. Israel is the root. God has not rejected His people. And Gentiles are warned not to boast against the natural branches.
You told me to read the Bible. I did. That is why your claim does not line up with what Paul actually wrote. Do better homework.
