 | | As to the Covenant theologians assertion that the Church has replaced Israel, Romans 8:17 and Galatians 3:29 are combined to show that in Christ we (the Church) are Abrahams heirs. |  | | While Dispensationalism views Israel and the Church as distinct peoples of God and expects promises made to Israel to be fulfilled literally and physically, Covenant Theology sees the Church as replacing Israel as the people of God, and sees the promises made to Israel to be transferred to the Church spiritually. |  | | Further, Covenant theologians will point to many prophecies regarding Israel in the Old Testament that are said to be fulfilled in the Church of the New Testament. |

 | | All of the provisions of the Covenant which are inconsistent with the P.L.O. commitment to recognize and live in peace side by side with Israel are no longer in effect. |  | | Many Israelis feel that although the PNC met in Gaza on 24 April 1996, it did not revoke or change the covenant, but only issued a statement saying that it had become aged, and that an undefined part of it would be rewritten at an undetermined date in the future. |  | | Many Israelis and others criticize the 1968 Charter as follows: Articles 15, 19, 20, 22, and 23 of the Covenant explicitly deny Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state. |

 | | This covenant is between God and the nation of Israel. |  | | The crux of the matter is that we qualify for the Messianic covenant by receiving the Messiah of Israel, and we qualify for the promises made to Israel by keeping the covenant (obeying the laws) God gave to Israel through Moses. |  | | This is not the Covenant given to us by Messiah Yeshua although the "Messianic Covenant" definitely came from Abrahams covenant. |

 | | The major covenants in Jewish scriptures are God's covenant with Abraham (Genesis 15), and the Sinai/Moses covenant (Exodus 19-24) between God and Israel. |  | | In Judaism, the covenant (Heb., brit) is a major theological concept referring to the eternal bond between God and the people of Israel grounded in God's gracious and steadfast concern (hesed) that calls for the nation's obedience to the divine commandments (mitzvot) and instruction (torah). |  | | Refers to Judaism in the intertestamental period (and slightly later) as a development from the religion of ancient Israel, but prior to the emergence of its classical, rabbinic form in the early centuries CE. |
