Rumination #31: Without the physical Land of Israel, there is no such thing as the New Covenant.

While it is certainly understandable for Replacement Theology (aka "Supercessionism", aka "Covenant Theology") to try and substitute the Land of Israel for the ethereal "heaven"; it is nonetheless as faulty as so many of their substitutions. The Scriptures are replete with the mention of the Land of Israel as central to the redemption plan of the Almighty. Like the entire inheritance of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, these notable (and ignoble) theologians, by negating the inheritance of the Land undercut their own theologies of redemption. They may have study Bibles that include their names in the titles… but they ignore its words, to their own demise.

Behold, the days are coming, says HaShem, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah...

But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says HaShem: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their G-d, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, "Know HaShem," for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says HaShem. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.

Behold, the days are coming, says HaShem, that the city shall be built for HaShem - from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate. The surveyor’s line shall again extend straight forward over the hill Gareb; then it shall turn toward Goath. And the whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields as far as the Brook Kidron, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east, shall be holy to HaShem. It shall not be plucked up or thrown down anymore forever.
Jeremiah 31:31; 33-34; 38-40

Then say to them, "Thus says HaShem G-d: 'Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land. ...Then they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob My servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell there, they, their children, and their children's children, forever; and My servant David shall be their prince forever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary in their midst forevermore. My tabernacle also shall be with them; indeed I will be their G-d, and they shall be My people. The nations also will know that I, HaShem, sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary is in their midst forevermore.'"
Ezekiel 37:21; 25-28

It matters not whether you are a theologian with the name of "Ryrie" or "Sproul," or a politician with the name "Obama" or "Trump." If you seek to take the inheritance of the Land either theologically or through some dishonest "peace plan," you will fail. In the end, you are the ones that will be crushed by the Rock of Ages (Daniel 2:34-35). You've been warned: ...Do not touch My anointed ones... Psalms 105:13
