“In contrast, the soft supersessionist agrees [with the hard supersessionist] that the church is Israel now, and that ethnic Israel is currently not a part of the true Israel. And when it comes to the salvation of individual Jews currently, we also agree that an unbelieving Jew is in the same position as an unbelieving Irishman, or Chinese, or Navajo. But the soft supersessionist holds that the Jews as a people are still part of God’s purpose and plan for the world. The gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. When the Jews are converted en masse, this will usher in the latter day glory, and the resurrection of the dead. In short, the status of the Jews with regard to faith and unbelief is relevant for the rest of the world.”
