Which confuses "us and them" kind of people and religions. I consider it the joy of Judaism, which I adore as A religion, not MY religion. I believe myself a righteous Gentile.

You're... suggesting there are people who don't recognize Judaism as being a religion?

Supersessionism suggests just that...it is really a fancy way of putting a replacement theory
Personally, I believe that some Jewish people are saved. There is, for example, a group of Jewish people called "Messianic Jews."
As for the Covenant, I agree with you that the idea of God breaking it is ridiculous. God is the great Covenant-Keeper. That said, I believe that what God did was not to break the Covenant but rather to fulfill it, have it reach its intended conclusion, in Jesus Christ. Now, everyone who has faith in Christ will be saved
"Messianic Judaism" is a denomination within Christianity. It blends Jewish traditions with the truth that Jesus is the Messiah

Thank You
Your exactly right ----you have to accept Christ in your heart to be saved --if you don't then your not saved ----that is my point --Many Jews today are not saved but they will be when God marks them and uses them to preach the Gospel to the world during the 7 year tribulation ---God honors this Covenant to the Jews in the end -----

Exodus 34:29-35

Here is today's reading. Lots to unpack in this passage so Snoopy and I will return later with our comments.
Bible Gateway passage: Exodus 34:29-35 - New English Translation
The Radiant Face of Moses - Now when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand—when he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, the skin of his...

So again we have the testimony of two conservative/ evangelical Christians.
Respectfully I ask that the two of you stop repeating yourselves here on the Exodus thread.
I have no objection to you pointing out parallels between Exodus and the NT. They practically leap off the page sometimes.
Today's reading is a great example!
Am neither a conservative, P3, nor an evangelical
So, the viewpoints of other Christians are welcome just not ours?
Will keep that in mind
Okay... I don't know what the epic fail was.Glad to have you so engaged in the bible study Brother @Jae
You just responded to my post as I was editing it. Sorry, I try not to post until I am sure of the wording. Epic fail this time.
At the time that I think most of you are starting your day, I'm on my way home from work and them am eating dinner. So I've lots of time to read.
Anyway, I do apologize for chasing down a rabbit hole on your thread. I'll watch that more

If not a conservative/ evangelical how do you identify as a Christian?
We have a member here who has referred to me as a Progressive Christian (even a woke progressive) on a few occasions. I do not identify as such and have said so more than once.
Words are important so please let us know your preference.

Almost feel like this may be a test to see if I'll go off the thread topic again, P3. However, since it's your thread, I'll answer for you.
Must everyone carry a label? At this point I feel a bit hard to pin down.
My theology and belief in God and His Word are still pretty much what they were before. Some things that have changed are some of my views on marriage and the role of women in the home and in the Church. I've changed from being a complementarian to being an egalitarian. I supposed I'd be satisfied enough with the label, if one must be made, of being "moderately-conservative"
As for being an evangelical, that's even trickier. I moved about three years ago from a very evangelical Baptist denomination to a Presbyterian one. Some folks consider the Presbyterian Church to be evangelical, while many others consider it to be mainline. At this point I feel I would best be described as being a "mainline Protestant"
