Hello. I have a question about Christianity.
I know that Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and maybe some Protestant churches believe that the church is the spiritual Israel, and Jews who reject Christ gave up their status as the true Israel.
I heard this one Protestant pastor say that this is wrong. He is very insistent that the church and Israel are two different things. He says that genetic Jews are still the real Israel even if they reject Christ, saying that God always keeps His promises.

Now I know a lot of you will say that's retarded right away, but let me tell you his argument because I want to understand.
He talks about a passage in Ezekiel which says that Israel will be invaded by Persians and Scythians, which he says is a prophecy of the end times that hasn't happened yet, which he says will be fulfilled by Iran and Russia (he says these modern day countries correspond to Persia and Scythia in the Bible, and modern state of Israel is the real Israel in the Bible).
I think he is probably wrong but I don't know a logical argument against him. He seems to have a lot of scholarly knowledge of the Bible, even if my instincts tell me that he is probably wrong.
