My pastor did have a look at the email I sent him with a link to your post. He dismissed you as being ill-informed and misled.
He advised me not to get caught up in vain disputes with people who pluck verses of scripture, out of their intended context and twist them to make them say what they are not saying.
He said that Romans 9:24-33 confirms that Israel is not Gods chosen people, and that should put your argument to bed.
Roman 9:24-33 Even us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
As He says also in Hosea: “I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved.”
“And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There they shall be called sons of the living God.” Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved.
For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth.” And as Isaiah said before: “Unless the LORD of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah.”
What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith; but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone. As it is written: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
Can you see now that Israel/Jews are nothing special. They are in fact no better that Sodom and Gamora, but for the grace of God.
I can't see how you can continue holding onto this unbiblical idea that Israelis have some kind of "Diplomatic Immunity" with God. The Bible is clear, the Lord Jesus is not the King of the Jews. He is the Kings of of all believers "Jews and Gentiles" alike. He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Tell your poor uninformed pastor that there are HUNDREDS of passages in the Bible that in no uncertain terms say otherwise.
Oh.....and ask you pastor if he feels any "70th week of Daniel tribulation vibes" in these Samson passages.
Jdg 15:2 - Her father said, “I really thought that you thoroughly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Is not her younger sister better than she? Please, take her instead.”
Jdg 15:3 - And Samson said to them, “This time I shall be blameless regarding the Philistines if I harm them!”
Jdg 15:8 - So he attacked them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; then he went down and dwelt in the cleft of the rock of Etam.

Did your poor uninformed pastor forget about Gomer and the lesson of the book of Hosea?
Hos 2:16 - “And it shall be, in that day,”
Says the LORD,
“That you will call Me ‘My Husband,’
And no longer call Me ‘My Master,’
Hos 2:19 - “I will betroth you to Me forever;
Yes, I will betroth you to Me
In righteousness and justice,
In lovingkindness and mercy;

Oh yes lets not forget about this. Am I the only one who did the readings?
Rom 7:2
For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to
her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of
her husband.
