Has the Church replaced Israel? Are the promises God made to Israel applicable to us today? Or does God have a separate plan for ethnic Israel and the Gentile Church?

In this episode, Matthew and Shepard Lilley discuss the concept of being ‘grafted into Israel’ as described in Romans 11. They explore the agricultural practice of grafting, its biblical significance, and the theological implications of covenants made with Abraham and David.

The conversation emphasizes the importance of faith for both Jews and Gentiles in the context of salvation and God's overarching plan for humanity. They also highlight the urgency of the Great Commission and the role of the church in reaching out to both Gentiles and the Jewish people.
