Do God's covenant promises belong to the nation of Israel?
Yes. The covenant promises belong to the nation of Israel. While God's offer of salvation extends equally to Arab and Jew, the land and covenant promises are not transferred to America, Great Britain, or Scandinavian nations. Deuteronomy 30 foretold Israel's dispersion, confirming God's covenant dealings remain with Israel.
Les explains that God loves the Arab people just as much as anyone else, and God's offer of salvation goes to the Arab as well as the Jew, but the covenant promises belong to the nation of Israel. He rejects British Israelism, which claims America, Great Britain, and some Scandinavian nations now receive the promises as offspring of the ten lost tribes. He says our European ancestors were lost, and the promises still belong to Israel. He then points to Deuteronomy chapter 30, verse 1, where God foretold blessings and curses and Israel calling them to mind among all the nations where the LORD had driven them, a prophecy that Israel would be dispersed more than once.
