Good job?
He twisted the Galatians 6 to it's opposite meaning!
[Gal 3:28 KJV] 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
[Col 3:11 KJV] 11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond [nor] free: but Christ [is] all, and in all.
[1Co 10:32 KJV] 32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:
Rather than viewing these texts as a erasure of distinct national identities or as proof that the Church replaces Israel, these passages define the internal, spiritual composition of a brand-new entity: the Body of Christ (the Church).
1. Soteriological Equality vs. Distinction of Function
Fruchtenbaum and Walvoord stress that
Galatians 3:28 and Colossians 3:11 address soteriological standing (how one is saved and justified), not functional roles or divine covenants.
* Soteriological Equality: Before God, a Jew, Greek, male, female, slave, or free person stands on identical ground regarding spiritual need and access to salvation through faith in Messiah.
* Functional & Covenanted Continuity: Just as Galatians 3:28 does not obliterate biological sex (men remain men, women remain women) or social realities, it does not erase the distinct ethnic lineage or national promises made to Abraham’s physical seed (Israel).
* Exegesis of "One in Christ": Fruchtenbaum notes that being "one in Christ" describes the spiritual position of believers within the Body. It does not negate God’s unconditional, everlasting covenants made exclusively with national Israel (e.g., Abrahamic, Davidic, Land Covenants).
2. The Mysterion (The "One New Man")
In classical Dispensationalism (Walvoord, Thieme, Fruchtenbaum), the Church is defined as a Mysterion (μυστήριον)—a divine secret unrevealed in the Old Testament, but disclosed in the New Testament (Eph 3:1–6; Col 1:26–27).
* A New Creation, Not a Renamed Israel: Ephesian/Colossian exegesis shows that God did not convert Gentiles into Jews, nor did He transform the Church into "Spiritual Israel". Instead, He created the "One New Man" (Kainos Anthropos—Ephesians 2:15).
* The Body Composition: Colossians 3:11 and Galatians 3:28 define the internal makeup of this "New Man". Both Jewish and Gentile believers are baptized by the Holy Spirit into one spiritual organism (1 Cor 12:13).
* Refutation of Replacement Theology: If the Church were merely "True Israel," the New Testament would call Gentile believers "Jews."
Instead, Paul distinguishes three distinct groups in 1 Corinthians 10:32: the Jews, the Gentiles, and the Church of God.
3. The 69th Week Interruption & The Church Age "Gap"
To account for why the Old Testament prophets never saw the Church Age, Dispensationalists point to Daniel’s Prophecy of the 70 Weeks (Daniel 9:24–27).
OT Prophetic Horizon: [69 Weeks of Years] ─── (GAP: Church / Mysterion) ─── [70th Week / Tribulation]
* The Prophetic Clock Stops: The 490-year clock for national Israel began at the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and paused after the 69th week (483 years) when Messiah was "cut off" (Crucifixion) AD 30/33.
* The Parenthesis / Interruption:
Because Israel as a nation rejected Jesus at His First Coming, God inserted an unprophesied interregnum—the Church Age.
* The Calling of the Bride: During this gap, Christ is calling out His unique Bride—a body made up of both Jews and Gentiles who enjoy equal spiritual privileges (Gal 3:28).
* Resumption of Israel's Program: Once the Church is complete and removed at the Rapture, God will restart Israel’s prophetic clock, initiating the 70th Week of Daniel (the 7-year Tribulation) to refine and restore national Israel prior to the Millennium.
