Love: The Mark of a Christian

Covenantal Love and the Jewish People

by Eric Chabot

Deuteronomy 7:6-8; Romans 9:1-5; Acts 13:46; Romans 11:1-29; Romans 1:1-5

Summary

God's love for Israel is covenantal and a reflection on His love for us today. Many people think Christianity replaces Judaism, however the Bible makes it clear that, while salvation was added to the Gentiles, God's gifts and callings to Israel are irrevocable. God has not rejected his people, nor is it ever commanded that Jewish people 'convert' to Christianity. Loving Jewish people means affirming their election and treating them with value and dignity because they, too, are image bearers of God.
