    Yes... I saw that too. This explains a LOT! I will never understand why people think that Israel has been replaced. The Lord never slumbers nor sleeps watching over her. He is surely not finished with Israel. The scripture is crystal clear.

    One should look to the contain of what is written, and not judge falsely.

    Shepherd's Chapel - Statement of Faith - Page 1
    Statement of Faith

    We believe that God chose out a special people unto Himself to be His servants and those servants were to be the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob called "Israel" (Deuteronomy 7:6; Psalm 105:6; Isaiah 44:1-2).

    Yep. I read the whole thing and many other parts of the website.

    And then the statement of faith goes ont o say:

    "We believe that after Christ's death and resurrection Israel was to be called by a new name (Isaiah 62:2). Israel was not to be remembered by her old name (Hosea 2:17); and, the new name was to be the Lord's Name (II Chronicles 7:14) which would be CHRISTIAN (Christ man) (Acts 11:26; I Peter 4:16)."

    There is much more, and a large part of the statement of faith focuses on what is actually pretty close to defining replacement theology.

    All that is stated is written in scripture. Are you finding fault with what is written in scripture? Or just trying to tag man's theology against what is written? Pastor Murray and the fellowship with Shepherd's Chapel is the aliment of The Word in spiritual truth.

    The path you have taken in this discussion is clearly off thread. And Why you, or classyT would choose to destroy the heart and soul of others who show love for Christ is discerned as wrong.

    Who is a Jew? Romans 2:29 But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.

    Good Grief,

    I'm not trying to destroy your heart or soul. It is MY opinion. Snd, you really need to not take this personally. Enjoy your church. I don't care. I think it is wrong. You think I am wrong. You certainly don't destroy my heart and soul because you THINK I follow "man theology". Get a grip. I'm out to destroy you... believe as you wish. I am never going to change your mind and you won't change mine. But please please stop thinking I am a internet bully. I just don't agree with you. That's all.
