We trace Paul’s revealed mystery in Romans 9–11 and argue that God’s promise stands by redefining Israel around Christ. Old Testament imagery, New Testament claims, and first-century history converge to present the church as the true Israel that inherits the promise by faith.

• mystery revealed by Paul in Romans 9–11
• promise secured by remnant and election
• Jesus as true Israel fulfilling Israel’s vocation
• the vine, fig tree, and vineyard judgments re-read
• Abraham’s seed singular in Christ, blessing to nations
• one new humanity in Christ, wall of hostility broken
• believers called a royal priesthood and holy nation
• 70 AD framed as covenantal judgment and fulfillment
• physical lineage relativised by new creation in Christ
• practical hope grounded in a finished work and unity
