Isreal's destiny is to be grafted back into the one olive tree, the church (Ro 11:17), IF (not "when") they do not persist in unbelief (Ro 11:23).I guess it depends on what your thoughts are regarding what Paul wrote about the situation with the Jews having had their hearts hardened.
Also, in my mind, your comment regarding the estimated number of all human beings who will actually get saved seems off.
I don't have a picture in my mind of any kind of numbers or percentages I think will spend eternity with God, but I concider your numbers to be far from worthy of our God.
I'm not being critical or harsh. Perhaps the images your words created were exaggerated by a simple misunderstanding.
Nevertheless, I think what Jesus said and what Paul wrote makes it clear to me, as I now understand, that there will be an....exception in this case.
Paul admonished those Christians in his day not to think too highly of themselves. That God had blinded them to the Truth to their advantage. That He would make what looked wrong right.
He isn't finished with the Jews and He can and will do as He chooses.
