Romans 11:26a

And so all Israel shall be saved

Good poll. I voted for the Israel of God, meaning the remnant of old Israel, the nations included in the new covenant, and later regrafted Jews. I particular like your inclusion of the latter, since I think Paul remains hopeful about the future of the Jewish people and God's purposes through Israel, but that doesn't necessarily mean each and every member of worldwide Jewry is assured salvation.

since some were blotted out of the book of life in the time of Moses . it is a very curious saying indeed . what would this imply for the rest of humanity?

When this passage says "all" it is not a literal "all" as in every Jewish soul but this is what is meant by "all" are the remnant Jews & grafted-in Gentiles & regrafted Jews chosen and predestined by God.


Here is another passage:

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.


But some doctrines read this passage way too literally.

Thank you sir!

Israel of God is both the Old testament and New testament believers who are declared in Scripture as the former and latter sea.

Saint Paul clearly defines the New Covenant Israel as neither Jew, Greek nor Gentile, but all nations under Christ.

As far as God is concerned all Israel is saved who God has redeemed both within the former and latter sea.
