How Replacement
Theology’s problem
with the Land has
turned Christians
against Israel
Part 5 of the Debunking
Replacement Theology series
T
he Bible is clear: the Land of Israel
has been given to the Jewish people
as an everlasting inheritance. In
Genesis 17:8, the LORD told Abraham,
“Also I give to you and your descendants
after you the land in which you are a
stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an
everlasting possession; and I will be their
God.” Deuteronomy 32:9, says, “For the
LORD’s portion is His people; Jacob is the
place of His inheritance.” Deuteronomy 30
describes how the Jewish people, scattered
to the uttermost parts of the world, will be
brought back into the Land. Meanwhile,

Amos 9:15 reveals this wonderful promise:
“’I will plant them in their land, and no
longer shall they be pulled up from the land
I have given them,’ says the Lord your God.”
Everlasting means everlasting. How, then,
can so many within the Church be deceived
into believing that the Land of Israel is
no longer part of God’s promise to the
Jewish people. In this article, we describe
four differing attitudes in mainstream
Christianity towards the Land that are
caused by Replacement Theology, the
destructive false teaching that the Church
has replaced Israel.
