The sad fact is that such attempts only obfuscates and denegrate real instances of anti-semitism which is a hated of Jews and all things Jewish.

Christians who understand the true nature of the new covenant and takes eriously the message of Paul that "there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him" are hardly anti-semites. Only the ignorant or dishonorable person would make such a charge.

The sad fact is that these alleged "literalists" fail to see the literal reality of the new covenant as it was given to the true Israel of God, the sons of Abraham by virture of faith in Jesus Christ. "And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." A person who trusts in Christ today is no less apart of Israel and heirs to the blessing than any who claim to be an ethnic Jews.

What these poor folks fail to realize is that its not about "replacement", but it is all about expansion of the kingdom to include the entire world in the blessings of Christ Jesus to His elect people. But they cannot see that because they are stuck in a carnal world of expectation for the very "messiah" that the qst century apostate Jews wanted but Jesus said was not coming.

Enough of your disneyland theology.

Are there any other parts of God's word that need to be expurgated? Your theology fails all prophecy tests; it's imaginary from top to bottom.
