Exactly where.... does "Paul tells Christians that the JEWS will always be God's people"?
And exactly where ...does he say they will be saved at "Christ's return"?
First, Paul through the Holy Spirit never uses the term "Jew". He always uses the term Israel. The distinction is important. When Paul talks about Israel, he is referring to the risen Messiah's Israel of the New Covenant established in His shed blood. All Israel WILL be saved, both Gentile believers and Jewish believers in the risen Christ. This is the Israel of the New Covenant. Those who did not and will not accept Christ are not a part of the Israel. And many Jews did not accept Him.
Second, Romans 11:26-27 says quoting Isaiah 59:20-21, "And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; for this is My (Christ's) covenant with them, when I take away their sins." Jacob is the 12 tribes. At the time of the Advent, the ten tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel had been taken into captivity centuries before. When the Southern Kingdom of Judah invited them to return to the land, they had declined and picked up and headed west through the Caucasus Mountains and disappeared off the pages of recorded history. At the time of Jesus, the people were primarily of Judah (Jews) and a few of Levi. When the Temple was destroyed, along with the genealogies, and Jerusalem was left desolate, the people were dispersed (those who survived) and having been cut off from the Covenant due to their rejection of the Messiah are now counted among the Gentiles just as the lost 10 tribes are. The Israel of God's covenant are everyone who accepted the Messiah, who came out of Zion, and "took away their sins" when He finished His work on the cross and ascended to the throne at the right hand of God. Isaiah was talking about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ only. Not some hypothetical future "return" of Christ.
Jews are the Tribe of Judah. And it it the God of the ENTIRE Bible that says the will ALWAYS be His Chosen people, Israel. And that ALL of Israel will be saved.
If you do away with your past, you do away with yourself. If you do away with the TORAH, prophets and writings, you do not get to claim that Yeshua is Messiah. He is the “Lamb that was slain BEFORE the foundations of the world. God does not lie and he is not capricious.......changing His mind, as we do, based on our current circumstances. He is Faithful to His Word to perform every ‘jot and tittle’.
I suggest you read the Bible from the perspective that the Bible is His history...the Bible is His-story. The entirety of the Old Covenant is to prefigure Christ. His chosen people, all who believe in the Messiah from Adam to today are Israel, the body of Christ on earth and the saints in heaven. This is the church.
