We most certainly do not deny Galatians 3:16, or any other scripture. But Galatians 3:16 is ONLY about promises made to ABRAHAM. SO Galatians 3:16 does NOT EVEN ADDRESS the MANY other promises made to Isaac, to Jacob, to the ancient nation of Israel, to both of the two ancient sub-nations of Ephraim and Judah, to each of the twelve tribes of Israel by name, to the plhsical land of Israel, or to the descendants pf various Israelites.
YOU are denying that God will actually keep ANY pf these promises. And in doing this, you are making God out to have LIED when He made these MANY promises.
Since its beginnings, dispensationalism has incessantly and loudly proclaimed that it is
Israel that is the fulfillment and heir of a vast array of God's promises and bequests. One need only read and hear a small fraction of dispensationalism's prodigious prophetic output to recognize that
Israel is the chief cornerstone in the foundation of the dispensational prophetic edifice.
Consequently, not even Christ Himself is permitted to replace Israel as the anointed recipient of that which dispensationalism claims it is entitled to. In any and every instance whenever it appears that Israel's presumed entitlements are being questioned, charges such as “calling God a liar”, “anti-Semitic”, "evil", "heretical", and various other epithets are directed at the perceived offender. It is the equivalent of identity politics within the church of God. Thus Christ is denied His own entire, rightful, and exclusive entitlements as
Fulfillment and Heir of all of God's promises and bequests.
The reason is self-evident. Israel's removal as the anointed recipient is the equivalent of the removal of dispensationalism's chief cornerstone, and the consequent and unavoidable collapse of the edifice which it supports. The result is effectively dispensational detonation, and the disappearance of a pervasive, not to mention lucrative, presence and influence within the Church.
But Scripture is unequivocal in its declarations, notwithstanding the denials directed at it:
Revelation 19:10
“...the testimony of
Jesus is the spirit of prophecy”
Israel does not substitute for
Jesus.
Jesus declares Himself to be the
Fulfillment of all things concerning Himself.
Luke 24:44
And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that
all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
Other Scriptures confirm His declaration, and further declare Him as
Beneficiary of all of the promses, and
Heir of all things:
Galatians 3:16
Now to Abraham and his seed were
the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is
Christ.
2 Corinthians 1:20
For
all the promises of God in him are yea, and in
him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
Hebrews 1:1,2
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his
Son, whom he hath appointed
heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
There is no substitute for “
all”.
In summation of which, Scripture declares:
Colossians 3:11
“...
Christ is
all, and in
all”
Notice that
Israel is conspicuous by its absence in the foregoing declarations.
The reason: They have
nothing to do with Israel.
And
everything to do with the
One Seed and Heir.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
