SUMMARY

Romans 11 is the bunker where every futurist, dispensationalist, and Zionist retreats when the rest of the New Testament has already dismantled their system. It’s treated like a theological panic room—an escape hatch that supposedly shields modern Israel-centric schemes from scrutiny. But in this episode, we show that Romans 11 is not their refuge at all; it is their grave. Paul is not confused, not contradicting himself, and not resurrecting Old Covenant categories he already buried in Romans 2 and 9. He is describing his own generation: the hardening and cutting off of unbelieving Israel, the first-century grafting of Jews and Gentiles into one tree, the fullness of the Gentiles within the Roman world, and the covenantal end of the Old Covenant age in AD 70.This episode uncovers how Romans 11 explains the real “end of the world” the New Testament talks about—not the destruction of the planet, but the end of the Mosaic world and the rise of the true Israel of God. We explore why the olive tree is not “the Jews,” why “all Israel” refers to the elect remnant, why the fullness of the Gentiles is a first-century reality, and what kind of world we now inhabit since the Old Covenant world has ended—a world where Christ reigns now, the kingdom grows now, and the nations are being discipled now.

Romans 2:28–29Romans 9:6–8Romans 11:1–36Matthew 21–24 (especially 21:43; 23:37–38; 24:14, 34–35)Luke 21:20–24Acts 2, 4, 6, 211 Corinthians 7:29–31; 10:11Hebrews 8:13; 12:25–28Ephesians 2–3Galatians 3–4

BIG IDEAS YOU’LL HEAR

There is only one Israel in Paul’s theology: Jew and Gentile united to Christ, the true Jew, by faith.The olive tree is not a dormant Israel waiting for a modern reboot; it is the living, first-century people of God being pruned and grafted in real time.The “fullness of the Gentiles” is a first-century reality in the Roman world, not a never-ending countdown to the last Gentile on earth.“All Israel” refers to the elect remnant within Israel, saved in the very manner Paul describes, before the Old Covenant world is torn down.AD 70 is not a random historical tragedy; it is the covenantal end of the Old World Moses built and the visible dawn of the world Christ is now ruling and filling.Zionism asks you to resurrect what God has buried and divide the one people of God into two; Romans 11 forbids it and exalts Christ as the one root, one Lord, and one covenant Head of His people.

NEXT WEEK – PART 4 TEASER

In the next episode, we will expose exactly what you lose when you adopt the lie of Zionism. We will walk through the doctrines that begin to crumble: doctrine of God, Christ, covenant, the people of God, the kingdom, the church, baptism, mission, and eschatology. Zionism does not just twist a few verses; it eats away at the foundations of Christian theology, and we will name those areas one by one.
