In this episode, Mike and Will tackle a listener's long-awaited question about replacement theology, exploring whether the Church has replaced Israel in God's plan. They dive into the theological camps: dispensationalists who see Israel and the Church as completely separate entities, and replacement theologians who view the Church as the new spiritual Israel. After extensively analyzing key passages from Galatians, Ephesians, and especially Romans 9-11, they examine Paul's olive tree metaphor. The conversation shifts to Zechariah's prophecy about nations gathering against Jerusalem and Israel's future recognition of their Messiah. They critique systematic theology's tendency toward dogmatism while working through complex biblical texts. They conclude with a nuanced third position: rather than replacement, Gentiles are being grafted into Israel, making the Church part of Israel's story, with ethnic Israel still holding future promises that will culminate when "all Israel will be saved."
