Adherents of replacement theology believe the Jews are no longer God’s chosen people, and God does not have specific future plans for the nation of Israel. All the different views of the relationship between the church and Israel can be divided into two camps: either the church is a continuation of Israel (replacement/covenant theology), or the church is completely different and distinct from Israel (dispensationalism/premillennialism).
Swali: "Teolojia badala ni nini?" Jibu: Theolojia mbadala kimsingi hufundisha kwamba Kanisa la imechukua nafasi ya Israeli katika mpango wa Mungu. Wafuasi wa theolojia badala huamini Wayahudi si wateule wa Mungu tena, na Mungu hana mipango maalum ya baadaye kwa ajili ya taifa hilo la Israeli. Maoni tofauti kuhusu uhusiano kati ya kanisa na Israeli yanaweza kugawanywa katika kambi mbili: aidha kanisa ni muendelezo wa Israeli (badala / theolojia agano), au kanisa ni tofauti kabisa na tofauti na Israeli.
