In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, I answer the question, "Has the Christian church replaced Israel and the Jewish People"?

For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

Romans 11:16-18

This is the core issue with Replacement Theology.

We examine:

• How early Church Fathers failed to recognize themselves as grafted in.
• What happens when we embrace Replacement Theology?
• What does it mean when God said that He would scatter His people among the nations?
• Does the New Covenant in Christ replace or fulfill the Old Covenant?

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode as we look at why Replacement Theology and cessationism aren't consistent with all of Scripture.

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, look at the statements of Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson that the Jews are pagan gypsies and Ashkenazi Jews, and not descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

We examine:

• What is the historical background and biblical record of these claims?
• Does scientific testing confirm Owens' and Carlson's claims?
• Do Jews worship Ba'al and sacrifice their children?
• If these claims are false, what are their origins?

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode as we answer the question, “Did the church replace the nation of Israel and the Jewish people?”

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, we look at historical facts concerning the Jews and Israel to determine if replacement theology is an accurate view of the church’s relationship with Israel and the Jews.

We examine:

• Who were the Palestinians historically?

• What is the West Bank?

• When did Jewish possession begin?

• Are the Jewish people occupiers?

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode as we answer the question, “Did the Jewish people really establish the nation of Israel, or did they gain the land by trickery?”
