What does the Bible say about the true Israel of God?

Answered in 1 source

The true Israel of God consists of those who have faith in Christ, not merely ethnic Israelites.

The Apostle Paul indicates in Romans 9:6-8 that not all who are physically descended from Israel are counted as the true children of God. Instead, the 'children of the promise'—those who have faith in Christ—are regarded as the real Israel. This means that God's promises are ultimately fulfilled in a spiritual sense, encompassing believers from all nations who embrace the gospel, rather than in a physical nation alone.
