I'd be interested in hearing from some of you concerning this question I asked on my #56 post:
So my question is, now that salvation has been offered to all people, what exactly is this "purpose" for fleshly Jews many of you think hasn't been fulfilled yet?
I don't pretend to know God's motivations, so I can't tell you what "purpose" God has. But I can tell you that God made promises to the Jews that He hasn't yet fulfilled. So whatever His purpose may be, God is not done with the Jews as a people. The regathering of Jews to Israel is a prophecy that is currently being fulfilled. Perhaps that is setting the stage for delivering on some of those promises.
Finally, I consider the Jews to be special because God considers the line of Abraham to be special, and even warns that He will curse those who treat the Jews otherwise. Genesis 12:
The Lord had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you. "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."
