Theological reflections underscore God's unwavering faithfulness to His eternal covenants with Israel, grounded in Scripture. Romans 11:29 (AMP) affirms this truth: "For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable (unchangeable, without retraction)." This verse powerfully emphasizes that God's promises and divine callings to Israel are permanent and unalterable.
The ongoing existence of the Jewish people and the re-establishment of the State of Israel serve as tangible manifestations of God's enduring covenant and His unwavering commitment. The Scriptures forecast a future fulfillment of God's promises to Israel, as seen in Ezekiel 36:24-32 (AMP): "For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all the countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols." This passage highlights God's promise to restore Israel and bring them back to their land in a renewed relationship with Him.
Further, the Book of Revelation describes the ultimate realization of God's plan for Israel and the establishment of Christ’s eternal kingdom. Revelation 21:2 (AMP) states: "And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." This imagery signifies the culmination of God's redemptive plan, which includes the restored Israel and the reign of Christ.
Throughout the New Testament, especially in Romans 9-11 (AMP), the Apostle Paul affirms God's unbreakable covenant with Israel. Romans 11:1-2 (AMP) declares: "I ask then: Has God rejected His people? Certainly not! For I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected His people whom He foreknew." Paul emphasizes that God's relationship with Israel remains intact, and His promises to them are eternal.
In summary, Scripture clearly affirms that God's covenant with Israel is everlasting, and His promises will be fulfilled through the restoration of Israel and the ultimate establishment of Christ’s kingdom, as foretold in both the Old and New Testaments.
