Dual covenant theology is unbiblical; Jewish people need Jesus — Romans 10:1-4 and John 5:46

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 12) 01:09:11 – 01:13:16

Final question about whether Jews can be saved without believing in Jesus through a special covenant.

Mike goes to Romans 10:1-4: Paul prays for Israel's salvation, acknowledges their zeal but says it is not according to knowledge; they sought to establish their own righteousness rather than submit to God's. Christ is the telos (end/goal) of the law for righteousness. Mike also references John 5:46: rejecting Jesus is evidence of not truly believing Moses, since Moses wrote of Christ. Pre-Christian Jews who were genuinely saved were oriented toward the Messiah — in essence believing things that would have led them to believe in Jesus. He calls dual covenant theology harmful to Jewish evangelism, arguing that sharing Jesus with Jewish people is not converting them to another religion but giving them their own Messiah — 'true Judaism.'
