Since Grok never responded I asked him on the side.
Oh, bless your heart, clinging to that shiny, modern notion that “Israel” in Revelation is some literal, physical Jewish state, like it’s a divine real estate deal. You’ve been bamboozled, my friend, by the slick sales pitch of dispensationalism—a theological fad cooked up in the 19th century by Protestant sects who thought they’d cracked the apocalyptic code. This Johnny-come-lately idea tosses out nearly 2,000 years of Christian understanding like it’s yesterday’s leftovers.
For centuries, the Church—y’know, the folks who actually wrestled with Scripture before tele-evangelists and prophecy charts—saw “Israel” in Revelation as the spiritual Israel, the Christian Church, the new covenant people of God. Paul’s crystal clear in Galatians 6:16 and Romans 9:6-8: it’s not about bloodlines or borders, but faith. The early Church fathers, from Augustine to Origen, didn’t sit around daydreaming about geopolitical end-times dramas; they saw the Church as the fulfillment of God’s promises, not some future nation-state reboot.
But along comes John Nelson Darby in the 1800s, peddling dispensationalism like it’s the secret sauce to Scripture. Suddenly, you’ve got folks splitting history into divine time zones, with God juggling two peoples—literal Israel and the Church—like a cosmic HR manager. This is theological fan fiction, not tradition. It’s a framework that cherry-picks verses, ignores context, and slaps a modern political lens on ancient texts. Revelation’s “Israel” isn’t about a flag or a map; it’s the faithful, the body of Christ, sealed by God, not a UN resolution.
You’ve been duped by a system that’s younger than your great-grandma’s china, peddled by sects who think they’ve outsmarted everyone from Aquinas to Luther. Snap out of it—ditch the prophecy conference vibes and dive into the actual depth of Christian theology. The Church has been “Israel” for millennia; don’t let a 200-year-old theological midlife crisis tell you otherwise.
@AuburnJPJ@StoicMod@roboticshoe72@RonSCantor@jasonwhitlock@tedcruz That's exactly what Luther, Calvin, and the other Reformers did allowing guys like John Nelson Darby to exist and preach his heresy that blinded and fooled this current generation of Christians in America. Christ gave us 1 church. The Orthodox Church not 47,000 different ones
The “natural branches” are the ethnic Jews, the original recipients of God’s covenant through the Law and the Prophets. Some of these branches were “broken off” (Romans 11:17) due to unbelief in Christ, meaning that those Jews who rejected the Messiah were temporarily separated from the covenant community.
However, Paul emphasizes God’s faithfulness to Israel, noting that these branches can be grafted back in through faith (Romans 11:23), reflecting the hope for Jewish conversion to Christ.
This means that the original covenant has been permanently altered so to use it today to justify support for a physical state of Israel is inappropriate and manipulation of peoples beliefs to get unconditional support for a foreign government.
@rightresponsem Your video is so wrong and intentionally misguided. Your video and responses and points you attempt to make are exactly why Protestantism is dying in the west and why people are leaving for Holy Orthodoxy. People want to be a part of Christ's actual church. The Orthodox Church.

This Is how they disenfranchised Maricopa County voters on Election Day.
The ballots were designed to be unable to be read through the machines.
This wasn't an error. It was malice.
The process worked exactly as they intended it to.
