Has God Rejected Israel? A Conversation on Replacement Theology with Dr. Gerry McDermott

45:10 Min. Listen

June 4, 2025

For nearly two millennia, much of Christian theology has promoted the idea that the Church has permanently superseded Israel in God’s covenant — a belief known as replacement theology. In this enlightening and challenging conversation, Pastor Doug Reed and Rabbi Pesach Wolicki speak with theologian Dr. Gerry McDermott about how this view became dominant, how it misreads both the Hebrew Bible and New Testament, and why it’s essential for Christians to rediscover Israel’s unique and ongoing role in God’s redemptive purposes. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in Jewish-Christian relations, biblical theology, or the future of interfaith cooperation.
