This is 🎯. If God doesn't keep his promise with the Jews in Israel, God doesn't keep his promises to you either.
God made a promise to Israel, Israel failed, and God moved on. Gave the promise to someone else. Replaced the original with an upgrade?
Is that really the character of Christ?
If you believe it, you have a bigger problem than eschatology. You have a God who walks away.
Think about what Christ actually did. He came to Israel. His own people. They rejected Him. They handed Him to Rome. They shouted “crucify Him.” By every measure of the “conditional promise” argument, that was the moment God should have been done.
The condition was broken as definitively as it could possibly be broken. The chosen people rejected the Son of God to His face.
And what did Christ do?
He died for them anyway.
On the cross He prayed “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” He didn’t say “Father, transfer the covenant. They failed the condition.” He said forgive them.
After the resurrection, He didn’t go to Rome. He didn’t go to the gentiles first. He appeared to His Jewish disciples. He sent them to Jerusalem first. Acts 1:8. “You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Jerusalem first.
The character of Christ does not transfer covenants when people fail. The character of Christ pursues, forgives, restores, and keeps His word even when the other party breaks theirs. That is the entire Gospel. If God’s faithfulness depended on human performance, every one of us would be lost. Not just Israel. All of us.
If God replaced Israel for failing the condition, He would have replaced Peter for denying Him. He would have replaced you for every sin you’ve committed since the day you believed. He would have replaced me.
God does not break covenants. He fulfills them. He extends them. He grafts in new branches without cutting off the root. Romans 11:18. “Do not be arrogant toward the branches. It is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you.”
