  1. I so long for the fulfillment of Isaiah 11, too, when there will be a kingdom of peace. “And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots…”. The Lord shall rule and reign o’er the earth.

  2. Terry, repectfully, you have neglected to mention what the whole of Romans 11 teaches us concerning Jewish and Gentile believers in Messiah. Specifically verses 25-29. “25 For I do not want you, brothers and sisters, to be uninformed of this mystery—so that you will not be wise in your own estimation—that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in; 26 and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion, He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.” 27 “This is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins.” 28 In relation to the gospel they are enemies on your account, but in relation to God’s choice they are beloved on account of the fathers; 29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.” – NASB. As a Gentile believer, I must heed the warning given in verses 16-18. “16 If the first piece of dough is holy, the lump is also; and if the root is holy, the branches are as well. 17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.” – NASB.

  3. There are many problems with this article that need serious biblical pushback. The New Covenant is not with the Church? Who is the Church in the new Testament? Jews that believed Jesus is the Son of Man, God incarnate on the earth.
    The Spirit has been poured out to this Church. The Church is without excuse. Except for where they blatantly deny that they are the “Redeemed of the Lord”. The New Covenant is to all who believe with no separation. Repent that all might be saved. Israel can repent and believe today!
    (Gal 3:28)  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

  4. “Redeemed Gentiles will make annual pilgrimages to Jerusalem to pray and worship the King . . .” Are the representatives of Gentile nations? I can’t imagine that the whole redeemed world will make this annual pilgrimage.
