In this episode, we look at two videos: one by Tucker Carlson, who argues Israel cannot be the chosen people of God, and one by Gavin Ortlund, who argues that Gentiles are now the true Israel, therefore Israel as a nation loses its significance. We break both of these arguments down and look at what Scripture has to say on the issue.
