Modern Israel and biblical Israel are continuous, but God's promises do not make every Israeli action righteous

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 12) 01:05:38 – 01:07:39

Question about how modern political Israel correlates to biblical promises for Israel.

Mike affirms continuity: the promises are to the same people (physical descendants of Abraham) and the same land. However, he warns against uncritical evangelical support — the OT repeatedly shows Israel acting wickedly. God's future promises to Israel will be fulfilled, but that does not make everything Israel does today sanctioned by God. He references Romans 11 for the basis of Israel's future role: the fullness of the Gentiles coming in, then a renewed work among Israel, culminating in widespread recognition of their Messiah.
